Nelson, sailod fmm Madras for Bengal the 80th July.

Madras for China, the 14th of Autus•, under convoy of 1l

captured at Prince of Wales Island must, therefore,
be unfounded, as the Grampus and Caroline were
well manned, and capable, with the Indiamen, of
resisting almost every attack from the naval force of
our enemies in India.

The Greyhornd and Royer cutters have been
engaged to prevent the wreck of the Ear.' of Aber-
pa. enny Indiaman from being plundered-Great hopes
are entertained that part of her cargo may yet
