From RIVINGTON's GAZETTE of Aug. 28.
On Sunday hft arrived here his Majesty's ship
Narcissus, from Charlellown: By her we have
the following advices :
CHARLESTOW N, July ,0.
The fleet which arrived off our bay on Thurs
day last, had on board the greater part of the late
garrison of Savannah, with a number of loyal re
fugees from that place.
The town of Savannah was evacuated by the
British troops on the 11th of this month ; the
public fltores and the effhas of the inhabitants
who have come away, being previously removed
down to the island of Tybee. On the 20th of
the fame month, a fleet failed from Tybee for
Jamaica, with about 4800 negroes, and other
property of the lovaliils, under convoy of the
Zebra frigate and Vulture hoop of war. Two
days afterwards, another fleet, having on board
about 3000 negroes, failed for St. Augustine.
On the evening of the fame day Col. Brown,
with a part of his regiment, the militia troops of
horse demounted, some militia infantry, and
about three hundred Indians, the whole making
together nearly the number of i §oo persons, em
barked in small veflels to proceed to East-Florida,
by the inland navigation.
The wholcnumber of persons independentofhis
Majesty's troops,who left Georgia in consequence
of the evacuation of the garrison of Savannah, is
said to be nearly 7000. Of that number about
5000 are negroes, who, according to some ac
counts, were at least three-fourths, and to others,
seven-eighths of all the slaves in the province of
Georgia. Among the 2000 whites, who have
likewise came away, are almost all the wealthy
inhabitants of the province, and many of the low
er classes ofthe people.
