March 26. 3 w BOWES REED.
MARTINI QU E, January 2 3 .
For fear of erring from the truth, we have defer
red hitherto of giving any account of the lots the
enemy futtained in the bay of fort Royal Accord
ing to all the reports we have received tiom St, Lu
cia, it appears; that the squadron of Vice- admiral
Parker has been conliderabiy damaged, and that two
of his vessels, which are laid to be the Elizabeth
and the Conqueror, have fuffered much in their hulls
and rigging. As to the number of their killed and
wounded, those who fay the least make it amount
to 100. Among the killed are two Lieutenants, the
2d Captain of the Elizabeth, and the commander of
the Conqueror, who was buried at St. Lucia. One
cannot forbear to admire the conduct of our Chas
d'Efcadre, and of the Captains of the Vengeur, and
■ , who saved the fleet of merchantmen, and
did immense damage to the fleet of the enemy of 16
fail of the line, without receiving any themselves.
1 his adion may be compared to those which have
immortalized our greatest seamen. The English
themselves have formed the highest opinion of M.
de la Mothe Piquet, and gave him the epithet of
gallant, which, in their language, comprizes all
the eulogiums of true bravery.
It is reported that a packet-boat has lately arriv
ed at Barbados, in a short pallage from England,
with an account that 16 ships of the line were loon to
fail from France for this island ; that the Count de
Guichen had fallenin with an Englilh squadron, Ad
miral Rodney, and his convoy, toi the W ell-Indies,
had beat the Admiral, and taken and drove on Ihore
molt of the merchantmen ; and that an Englilh fleet,
bound with stores for Gibraltar, had fallen in with
the Spanish admiral Don darcelo, who guarded
the entrance of the btreights, who obliged the men
of war to flee, and captured the remainder. We
wait for a confirmation of this good news.
The firft instant arrived here a veliel from Mar
feilies, which left that place on the bth of Novem.
Before she passed the treights mouth, Ihe was flop
ped by the panilh fqaudron for two days. Ihe
Captain was informed, that the siege of Gibraltar
was carried on with vigour; and that the Englilh
fire upon the Spaniards was without effect; he like
wise was told, that three ships of the Count d'Ef
tairg's squadron were arrived at Cadiz; that Don
Barcelo had intercepted an Englilh fleet ol ftore-lhips
of 42 fail, with fuccours for the garrison, and that
not one escaped, except a single frigate, which con
voyed the fleet, and through all the fire of the Spa
niards got fafe into Gibraltar.

A LOT of good Pasture Ground, in the cit'v of

HEREAS Isaiah Yard, of Trenton, has mali
ciqufly inserted in the New-Jersey Gazette of
the 15th inst. a caution to the public, with a view (no
doubt) to prevent the sale of a plantation advertiled
by me in laid Gazette. Ido hereby inform the pub
lic that I can prove, by the very best authority, that
neither the aforefaid Isaiah Yard, his father, nor
grandfather, nor either of them, have or ever had
right or title in said trad of land ; and also that my
right has been regularly derived from an indiff utable
title made by ihe then flieriff, on a legal sale, as ap
pears by the record.---" But it fee ms his fathci 1 ad
ministrators were told, that they must wait till he,
the heir, should become of age, before a deed could
be obtained ; and now, being of full age, is deter
mined to defend his title." I readily agree with mv
friend Isaiah that he is not only " now o f full age,"
but was twenty-one fix or seven years ago; ano fur
ther, that his father's ad mini ft rators and himfi If have
been resident in and about this place before and ever
since he became of full age, and yet without L ing
able to obtain any kind of title, notuithflanding his
perseverance in a pretended claim. 1 would further
add, that my predeceflors and myftlf have been in
full and quiet pofleffion of laid tratt ol land for more
than twenty years pah, occupying and disposing of
the fame at pleasure, in the moil uninterrupted man
ner.—Whoever will choose to become the purchaser,
may depend on receiving from me a fufficient title,'
and I will warrant and defend the lame against any
pretended claim or claimant.'
