At eight o'clock upon -lie preceding evening; the ship had suffered so much from the storm, that she had very nearly parted in two, when they, precipitately took to their boar, in which they were driven about at the mercy of the wind and tides, until four in 'the morning, when they came on*shore.

Ii is stated, in a Paper of the 28th of May, that one of the Fiench Frigates from Guadeloupe came up to New York on the preceding day from Staten Islar,d, and anchored near the City, in the North River, for the purpose of taking in provisions. The other Frigate was expeeled up the following day. It was reported that JEROMe BONAPAKTE, and his Lady, were to go to France in °neat' those Ships.— It was generally believed that jrapht had received a letter from his' brother, stating, that be should send a Frigate fur him.
