CAPTAIN HOIINEY TO I.EAR-ADMIRAL TYLER, DATED EIS 24 AizESTY'S SHIP STAG, SIMON'S JIAY, 21ST :lAN. 1814: . . " 1 have the honour to inform you of thy arri val here this day, and,. pursuant to the directions .contained in your order of the sth instant, to' de- • tail to you my proceedings in a nearly unsuccess ful search after tidings of the wreck Of the Wil liam Pitt ; whit little information I have been ahle to collect respecting her probable fate, crimes from the Officer commanding the troops at Algoa Bay. a . When I first anchor - et' an the I lth, this OfEcer (Captain E\'att) informed me, that on Thursday, the Ifith of December last, they hat! seen. a large ship passing to tke westward, and that on the Friday night (17th), about II o'clock, five signal guns, as if fired in distress, were heard in St. Francis, or Camptors Bay, (which is the Bay directly to the w e st war d o f C a p e }Celli t). Ott the Satutday it blew very bard from the west-' ward ; and in a day or two after he learned that touch wreck bad been thrown up over the whole of the Bay, particularly in one spot near the-month of the river Camptors. He therefore ordered an Offi cer'sparty round to the place, whwremained 'there two or three days, during - which time'wreck continued to come on shore, but no ,bodies : the pieces of the wreck thatl have seen (and they describe there being nothing larger) appear to be only bulk-heads Pecabins, lids of boxes, furni ture, the medicine- chest (marked William Pitt), pieces of boats, and small spars, and such articles as anight"be .expected to have been washed Away front the upper deck and clbin by a heavy sea striking her. llsher is . indeed one single plank, as if of the poop deck, with cot screws still in it, and this is the onl thing that -bespeaks at all the slain herself to-have gone tO piecee: 1 havealso seen the sheave of one of hertopmasts; and some of the p;trty said, that a little distance from the other piecea of , the wreck there was-what appear ed to them the heel of a topmast. `.` It is cornewhat remarkable, that, if the ship has beco wrecked- on any part ti!l this coast, none of the larger timbers have been thrown up, as tOie must', from the surf, have immediately on to pjeeesa neither has one bit of rope or sail been thro\an on-shore, or seen attached to ally of the fragments pieked , up. About the latter end of the month the linty seat returned to Algoa Bay ; but ' Captain fivatt having since learnt that- • ome drowned sheep and pigs had.been thrown up on the same spot, I was induced to beg hint to send again roUnd to see if any thing further Could be gaLacd, in which request he itindly complied, whilst I in the ,mean time intended going to look at the Bird Islands : I accordingly left AlgOa. Bay during the night, in order to read) the Rock by d light; it, however, blew so strong front the S*. that I could -not approach them, and there fore ran ou, in the hope of gaining,shelter in the Bay, which•the books describe to the Eastward of Cape Padtom ; it did not, however, seem to afford any safe anchorage, and daring the niOtt it blew very hard, with a tremendous sea, in whieh we lost our quarter boats. I taut hack to AlgOellity on the 13th, awl found the party, had returned from Camptors, without further informa tion 5 I again therefore weighed on the morning of the 14th for the Bird Islands, and was standing on anti off them during the forenoon ; but they are so surrounded on the South and South -,east side with breakerS, that 1 could not safely ap proach them nearer than four - miles, and as the wind was from the Southward, with a direct lee- - shore, I did not venture to send my boats away to them : I can, however, to a certainty, say, that there is no human being alive on them, even should the ship have been lost 'on them; which.. there is no reason- toexpect. l• forgot before t a state that a bag or letters, which were picked up in Camptors Buy, and which came, from the wreck, 1 Hare caused to be forwarded by the . Reich Schooner ; „bound to the Cape, under 'the idea that she would arrive there before our re- turn." OnAVE ROBDERY.---Q9 Wednesday evening. a hearse, which was returning front attending a ' fa. neral in the cotmtry; was lobbed (between the Elephant and Castle. and St. George's Church, in the Borough) of a bag; containing a Large velvet pall, some ostrich feathers, and other funeral de corations, to the value ot : apwards 0f5.501. , The villains had to pick the loclt of the hearse-door, before they could accomplish their object; and it is somewhat surprisiilg, that at the time they suc ceeded in committing thatyobbery and getting off, wcre• ten perspns tiding on the roof of. the , .
