THE
WEST-INDIA INTELLIGENCE.
KINGSTON; (Jamaica) May 1.
In pursuance of the resolves of a meeting of the inhabitants
of this town the 30th ult. this day the Hon. Thomas French,
Esq; Cuftos, William Gray, Eliphalet Fitch, Hercules Ross,
Thomas Gray, Allen M'Lcan, and Archibald Thomson,
Esquires, waited upon Sir George Bridges Rodney, Bart;
&c. &c. on board his Majesty's ship Formidable, at Port
Royal, and addressed him as follows:
To Sir George Brydges Rodney; Baronet, Knight of the
Bath, vice Admiral of Great-Britain, Admiral of the White,,
and Commander in Chief of his Majesty's Jhips and veflels of
soar, &c. &c. tie.
S I R,
THE magistrates and other inhabitants of the town of
Kingston, ever distinguished by loyalty to their gracious
Sovereign, and zeal for the publick service, have conferred 011
us the honour of waiting on you thir day;
To express, Sir, in terms of the highest refped, their gra
titude to the best of Kings for having sent to their protection
a Commander so eminent for his services to the publick; and
who with glory has so often fought the enemies of his country.
The 12th of April, a Day! rendered memorable by youri
victory over the fleet of France, after a long and bloody con
flict, in which the bravery of the enemy, added frefh laurel#
to the British arms; has been celebrated here, by every de
monstration of publick joy.
Great are our thanks to you, Sir, and to the officers and men
of your victorious fleet. You have relieved us from the dread,
of the combined force of our enemies, from the exercise of
military law, and restored us to the peaceable enjoyment of
our civil rights.
From this great event, the most brilliant in the annals of our
country, we shall date its fafety, and anticipate the profpeCt
of feeing the British empire restored to its former grandeur.
In so unnatural a civil war, and the combination of so many
powerful kingdoms; To you! the glory must be ascribed, of
having confoicuoufly supported the honour of the British flag.
The bright example of that day, will throw confufion on
our foes; and will rouse men dignified with high command to
emulate your example.
Whatever may be the event, you will have the confeioug
fatisfadion of having done your duty. The applause, the
esteem, affection and regard of your country cannot be want
ing.
Time shall be the faithful recorder of your great aCtions;
and posterity shall commemorate this day, on which, by the
voice of a united and grateful people, you are hailed the guar
dian of Jamaica,
Thus, far, Sir, we have humbly endeavoured to express the
sentiments of the pnblick, and to execute a commission we
think most honourable.—We shall now take our leave, firft pray
ing that the Almighty may protect you in the hour of danger,
that you may be enabled to purfoe vour success ; and at last
have the heart-felt fatisfadion of feeing civil discord subdued,
and your country relieved with honour, from the calamities of
such an extensive war.
To which Sir George Brydges Rodney was pleased to return
the following Answer:
Formidable, in Fort-Royal harbour, Ma, 1, 1782.
Gentlemen,
TRULY sensible of the honour done me, and the gallant
officers and men of the fleet T command, by the magistrates
and inhabitants of the loyal town of Kingston, I must begyout
will be so obliging as to return them my most grateful thanks
for the good opinion they are pleased to entertain of my pub
licly services.
I have done no more than my duty, but what adds to the
fatisfaClion I feel on the great success of his Majesty's arms is
the fectirity it gives to the inhabitants of Kingston and the
trade of that loyal and, opulent town—from whose generous
inhabitants I have so often experienced every a& of hospitality
and regard, and who have a right to claim from me, while I
have the honour to command so large a portion of his Maje
sty's Beet, every protection and assistance towards promoting
and encouraging the commerce of so loyal a people, and wher
may depend upon every thing in my power that may contribute
thereto.
Ma, 4. Tuesday morning the artillery, with their field pie
ces and the two battalions of the Kingston regiment of foot
militia, were reviewed on the Race Course near this town by
his Honour the Commander in chief, attended by his suite:
After going through the manual exercise, they performed the
firings, and a great number of evolutions in general, with a
spirit and alacrity that would have reflected honour on much
older soldiers. The artillery, flank companies, and fuzileers,
distinguished themselves in a very conspicuous manner, and the
whole received the thanks ofthe General, expressed in the warm
est terms of approbation.
No other ceremony takes place when martial law ceases, but
that of lodging the colours, which was performed on Tuesday
evening by the firft company of grenadiers of the Kingston re
giment of foot militia; and from that moment the civil power
took place of the military.
The fame day arrived the ship Mentor, Whitefides, front
Cork in eight weeks.
Wednesday the ship Queen, Stavely, from Bristol, in fevert
weeks—his Majesty's ship Fortunee, with a French privateer
ship her prize.
On the 15th of March, a Spanish fqUadron appeared off
Rattan,, consisting of two ffiips of the line, a frigate and 19 fail
of transports. The batteries of Port Royal harbour were at
tacked the fame day, and on the 17th the place surrendered,
the garrison and inhabitants being made prisoners of war; the
batteries, magazines, and pitblick stores demolished, the houfe#
burnt, and the settlement totally destroyed. On the 23d, the
Spanish squadron went over to Truxillo-Bay and landed a bod,
of troops, who marched through the country to the British -
fettlenients at Black-River, which experienced the fame un
manly and cruel devaftatiori.
On Thursday his Excellency le Comte de Graffe, attended
by several of his officers, arrived at the King's House in S,a
nifh-Town, from on board La Ville de Paris, and after a ihort:
visit to his honour the Lieutenant-Governour, retired t% house
fitted up for his reception.
