'the weather was so tempestuous and stormy on
Thursday last, that no vessel ventured to come into
port or go to sea. About p. m. it blew the hard-
est gale of wind, with torrents of hail and rain,
known for the summer, accompanied with dread-
ful and incessant thunder and lightning. The ships
in the Sound struck yards and top-masts, and one
man of war fired some guns do driving, but having
good gear and sound anchors, she rode out-the. gale,
which suddenly abated in the evening, and the wind
shifted to W. N. W. and became almost calm. The
small English and IT:.ench Privateers in the Channel
must have felt the effrads of ON above gale of wind.

cois, deeply laden, and two Dutch galliots, detained

They have been very successful in captures, and
share as the revenue vessels ; crich tender having a
master's mate and six men on {.card his. Came in
