SIR, Lnioning-street, Aug n, Icy*
I have had the honour to lay before Lord Cam.,
den your letter of the 17th ult. iliclosin. the copy
of a letter from Mr. Itiv:ere...erit•en 4 order of
the French Minister of Marine and Co'cmi 'l, to the
Commissioners for the Custody of P, inners of
War, claiming the release of the Freach crews
and garrison' that were made prisoners by His Ma-
jesty's squadron off Cape Francois. in the inland of
St. Domingo • a the 3')rb of November last. in
virtue or the gat Article of the Cone •ntion then
agreed to by the English and French Commanders;
and, in anso•er thereto, I am diroaesl to cornonini-
cate to youlhis Lordship's sentiments, fir the infor-
mation of the Lords Commissioner. of the Admi-
ralty. in order that they may toe transmitted. throuelt
Mr Riviere, to the French Government. In that let-
ter, Mr. Riviera states, that the Minister, under whose
orders he ass, di reas him to observe, " -Chat tie mis-
fortunes of war are sutficiehtly heavy in them-
selves, and call particularly on those who, by
their sitiation on either side, are powerfully
enabled to inflaence the fate of humanity, • not to
seek occasions reciprocally to agaravate those osla-
fortunes still mew,, either by evasions or discussions,
unworthy of their public charaaer ;"--and he coo-
eludes his dispatch by r,marking—o That the AJ-
?thrifty may be assured of the dire& and decided
intension of the t iovernment of Franc-, th it foment"
the ditties of humanity shall b• n-);led..t in favour
of prisoners of war."-1 he senrim. nts .hos avowed
are cong-ntal wilt those which are en...rtain c 1 by
His Majesty's Minisiels ; an 1. h .w-vei much the
condo& hitherto ad speed by the French Goy ono
ment hsa differed from those sentiments. I A'n not-
withstanding cliteaed by Lord Camden to lay tae-
fore you the following statement, as he canton,
from Mr. Riviete's expressions, but entertain the eer
pedtati• n, that when the jostice of the cases whisk
I• proceed to Ity before you. fir his mformatimi„
shall be considered, the French Coverimeitt v. ill
afford that satisfaction to this country, w:.ich she
has a right to espea.
At the very (onset of the war, even before His
Majesty's Ambassador had left France, a vary
siderable nnmher of His Majesty's stihj•as, who
were resident in France by the pe•trf *lion of the
French Governm-nt. and, on the loaf: of the Low

the Ministers nt Franc-, were, in d••fiance of he eats.

In the month of June, 180$, . detachment of 'fis

principle of honour and um mitt,. he sent liens to
their own country, on the.r pirok, with an e tire
confidence of their being im nediate'y esclia..ged.--
No acknowledgment of Iho generous crindtiO has
been male. and not a sin le B itsh p-isr.ner has
been released in return for the g rrrrr on of St Lucia.
In the same month of J one, 1803. the Isl ma .4,

on being summoned t • surrender, Gen-r4l Se'!hieri
the Commandant, not bean! in a sioratton to make

the spirit which aauates the Gins. rnment of
France.
C tpt. Furies, Commander of the French frigate
17.a,,,,ite, was allowed to go to France. on hi. parade
to retorts to Eo:' mil in th,e. inoulhr, if he could not
procure the exchange of Capt. Brenton of His 1%11-
j-sty's frigste tii,,erea. • l'he liberation of Captain
Brenton has been refused, and the French Govern-
ment have pmposed to substitute-Ist, Col. rrau-
lard ; £ ily, Mr. M.Namara ; and, 311 y. a Colonel
Smith; the two former of whom being resident in
Fiance at the time of the rupture between the two
conmrtes. were detained as prisoners, contrary to the
last • f natinns ; dad Col. Smith is nut known to be
in the army or the navy of this country.
I am next to advert in th- capture and detertion
of Lieut. Dillon. Lieut. Dillon, of His Maje,ty's
ha !ace ,int, was sent into Helvoet on the
Soth July, 1803, in a six-oared cuttel, with a flag of
Diu—, and was the seized and st& ined with his
crew. Upon a repreten atinn being MA eon the
. _

subjea. a lever WI% received from the officer eons-
mandmn st the T'r.'l, u.sder date (Monet. 16, 1803,
to the Offizer com-n in ling His Rritannie Majesty's
ships off that peier. stating, that orders had been is-
sued by the Council of the Ratavian Navy, to the
Commanding Officer at Helvoet, on the 39th ofisluly
preceding. for the entire release of the said Lieu-
tenant, Rag of tru.:o, and equip use ; in conse-
quence whereof he ,'ep lined on the same day, but
that he was on 1 return earied back by a 'French
armed boat. and trAnspnr:e on board the si•,ip of
th- Command int of a French cfrvisinti stationed at
the same port. It appears, that remonstrances have
been made by the Hatavian Republic to the French
G.ivernment for the liheration of lieutenant Dillon,
but, nor withstanding these circumstances, Lieutenant
Dillon is still detained a prisoner in the territory of
liranee, in open violation of every privilege in re-
lation to Rine of truce, established and acknow-
ledge) by civilised nations.

Bin the case of Captain Wright deserves and re-
quires more observation than even any of these
'I have hid before you: It appeals, that Captain
Wriebt, commanding His Majesty's sloop El V am-
tfjo (which was taken off the coast of Britanny, on
the 20th of May List, by several gun-boats), instead
of meeting with that liberal treatment which has
uniformly been experienced by French Officers in si-
milar cases, was sent, with circumstances of pecu-
liar int:ignity and severity, to Paris, sulijeded to
close imprisonment in the Temple, and obliged to
undergo repeated interrogatories before a Court of
Jostice, when none of the fads alleged against him
'would, if true, anthorise the French Government
to consider Capt. Wright in other light than as a
pins iner of war, and as entitled to every privilege
of that sauation. Lord Camden finds it difficult to
permir me to advert to a case of this flagrant nature
in the terms and exi-ressions to which this commu-
nication'ought to be confiised ; for, he believes, that
no age has yet produced an instance of a gallant
Officer, who, after deferAng his ship to the utmost,
was obliged to surrender. and who, thus becoming a
prisoner of war, was entitled to all the respeft which
his condud merited, was yet dragged to the capital
of the hostile county, and interrogated there, in a
manner most unjustifiable, upon a snbjed to which
he could not. and night not to answer. 'Captain
Wright's judgment and firmness appeared to he as
consp;ctions under the circumstances in whi: it he
was place.!, as his gallantry in his particular pro-
fession ; but he yet remains a close prisouca in the
Temple at Paris, an example of the honour, the
ilimness, and the spirit of the British eh/trader.
I close this statement with this case; and I now
proceed to state to you, for the information of Mr.
Riviere. that, in order to lessen the evils of war.
and to consult the interests of humanity, His Ma-
jesty has twice invited the French Government to
accede to the principle of a general cartel, founded
on the basis of that which existed between the two
rations in the last war. The accession to those pro.
posals has, however, been evaded by the French
Government, by insisting that the Hanoverians are
to be considered as British prisoners, when they
cannot he ignorant that the case of the invasion of
Hanover, and the war with the King of Great Bri-
tain, are perfally distind in all their circumstances;
when they know, that during several years of the
last war, the elcdoral dominions of Hanover were
at peace with France, and that no mention was
made cf Hanover in the Treaty of the Peace at
Amiens, as forming in any manner whatsoever, a
part of the British Empire; and when they equally
know. that no Hanoverian is a British subjed ; but,
on the contrary. considered by the laws of Great
Britain, as an alien and foteigner, and over whom
these is no controul in this country.

Having laid before you this statement, it remains
for me new only to advert to the particular subjed
of Mr. Rivtere's letter, via.—that those French pri.
soners which surrendered at Cape Francois, by Ca
pilllatiOn, in November, 180:3, should be sent to'
Francs without delay. On this part of the sobjcd,
I am, in the first place, direded by Lord Camden
to refer you to tie inclosed copy of the statement to
Vice-Admiral Duckworth, by Captain Bligh,
re-
sprEting the said capitulation, in order that, by a
c.nnmunication thereof to Mr. Riviere, no pretence
may be made of ignorance, with respell to all its
pat ticulars. Upon this statement of Captain Bligh,
Lord Camden directs me to make the following ob-
servations; first, it appears, that, in a moment the
most critical to the Drench garrison, all possibility
of their escape cut off, their position being such,
that their falling a sacrifice to the vrn7eance of the
inhabitants of Sr. Domingo. was inevitable, no time
being ,showed for consideration and adjustment of
the terms and niceties of- a formal CileitillAtillll,
rye, of articles ready prepared by the French
Commanding Officer, was presented to Captain
Ingh, who, aduatcd by motives cf generosity atid
ci.mig,b4ion, immediately consented thereto, with
eertaitt modificxions, and with great difficulty in-
shred General Dessaiines also to consent to them;
which modifications (as there was not time to re-
dusa duns hdu regular written terms) the French
Comtnandsrs, in the presence of Captain Bligh and
Vase of his Officer, promited on their honour to
Wy se soon as they Cionld arrive at Jamaica.
Secondly, on the faith of this promise, thus fully
and distmetiy given in the presence of four British
e:s. who certify tie fad, the French garrison
% received under the protettirm at His Majesty's
area. and removed (tont certain immediate

. ,

7

destrulllon; but, as sooty as by Omit means they,.
were placed in a State of security, they retraltedf
their promise, and refined to ratify the very ea-..
gager:lents by which they were saved. •
Lord Camden has thought ,it necessary that a
statement of the transadinns which took place at
Cape Francois should he detailed to Mr. Riviete,
in order that the French Government may be
aware of all the circumstances of the case,
and how equ'tably Ili.; Majesty might be autho-
rised in raßns 4. conform (My thereto. Still,
however, with that scrupulous adherence to
capitulations and treaties which has ever din
tinguished this nation, His Majesty will not insist
upon any point which is not included in the words
of the capitulation of Cape Francois, and will be
guided in his conduft by the afritten instrurront
alone. I am now, therefore, direaed by Lord
Camden, to desire that it may be stated to Mr. Iti-
viere, that no time will he lost in carrying into exe-
cution the capitulation of Cape Francois, whenever
His Majesty's Government shall be enabled, from
the elindun of the French Government, to effOluitte
that measure ; and that, so soon as a number of Bri-
tish prisoners. equal in number, aiid proportionate
in rank to the garrison of St. Lucia, shall he sent to
England, a proportion of the gat fist-rat which capitu-
lated at Cape Francois shall be sent to France, in
order to be exchanged. This prnposition is made
upon the principle of evincing the most scrupulous
regard to the capitulations agreed to by His Ma-
jesty's Officers ; but Lord Camden hopes that the
French Government may he induced to ulterior
measures, in which the cause of general justice and
humanity is concerned, and which are calculated to
alleviate those evils of warfare, which Mr. Riviere
so truly states ought not to be aggravated.
I am, therefore, secondly, to desire it should be
proposed to Mr. Riviere, that if the French Govern-
' ment shall release those persons, natives of Great
Britain and Ireland, who were resident in France at
the commencement of hostilities, by the permission
of the French Government, or the passports of their
Ministers, and who have been detained in France,
captives contrary to the law of nations; and if Lieu-
tenant Dillon shall he liberated, and Captain Wright
released from his confinement, sad treated as a pri-
soner of war, a general cartel, upon the basis so
properly agreed to during the course of the last war,
should be established between the two countries.
It must be obvious to Mr. Riviere, and to the
French Nlinister of Marine under whom he aces, how
deeply His Maj-sty mist be impressed by the al-
ready lengthened and unjust captivity of his sub-
jeEls ; and by the circumstances of Lieutenant Dii-
lon's detention; and Captain Wriglat's imprisonment ;
and how reasonable it is to etpeft an honourable re-
dress in these points, precious to the establishment
of a general cartel.'"When this sentiment is con!
veyed to Mr. Riviere, I am direeted to desire, that
their Lordships may, at the same time, impress
upon him the confident expeftation of His 7-4ajety's
....overnment, ti‘at if tire French'Government shall
embrace the measure hf a general cartel; they wall
not again impede its prowess, by requiring terms,
in which it i. known that it is impossible for His
Majesty to acquiesce, I am, Sac..

This inte estiog Paper forms part of the Corres-
pondence which took place with a view to obtain the
liberation of the gallant Captain Wright, through
the intervention of the Spanish Ambassador at
Paris. We lament that our limits will not admit of
our giving all the Letters and Documents connected
with them, in detail ; and we must confine aurselves
to a brief review of their contents. The first is a
letter from Lord Harrowl4 to the Chev. d'Andua-
ga, dated July 18, 1801, alluding to the violation
of the rights of nations and the usages of war, in
the treatment observed towards Capt. NV' ight, who,
as a priscnier of war, and entitled to every privi-
lege of that situation, had been subjected to pecu-
liar indignity and severity, closely confined in the
Temple as a state prisoner, and obliged to undergo
repeated interrogatories before a Court of Criminal
Judicature, with a view to establish proof of an *A-
legre' crime supposed to have been committed pre-
vious to his capture, and even anterior to the pre-
sent War. Lord Flarrowby adds, that, should the
French Government persist in this condud, His Ma-
jesty would very reluctantly be obliged to treat some
French 0115cer with equal rigour, and hold him as
a hostage for the safety of Capt. Wright.
The Chev. d'Anduaga, in a Letter of the 19th
July, announces his having forwarded Lord H.'s
letter to Paris 1 awl, to another of Sept. 'A., states,
that the French Government had en isented to li-
berate Capt. Wright, and only waited to be inform-
ed to what port Lord Harrowby wished him to he
sent. This letter was accompanied by a Note from
M. Talleyrand, to the same effed : and attempting
to jastify the conduct of France in relation to this
gallant Officer, by as*erting, that, when taken, he
was landing on the coast of &nanny persons hostile
to the French Government. Lord Harrow's'', in
reply to the Chev. d'Anduaga, appoints Dover as
the port where Capt. Wright might he sent ; or, if
the French Government should not prefer that
route, that he might be suffered to return to Eng•
land by way of Embden.

A Letter from M. Meier.., in the name of the
French Minister of 'Marine, dated Park, 22 Prairial,
year 12, requites the liberation of the French Offi-
cers, &c. who had surrendered at St. Domingo, and
were detained prisoners in England, on the ground
that the spirit of their capitulation stipulated for
their return to France on their parole, although it
was not so expressed vethilly. The foregoing let-
ter from Mr Cooke, is in reply to this application,
and it is supported by a letter from Captain Bligh,
of the Tirsems (corrohnrAted by two officets of
that ship. and by Captain Perkins, of the neat),
which expressly states, that Captain Bligh ob-
istted to the 2d and s•h articles of the capitula-
tion proposed by the French troops; but th►t, in
consideration of the imminent danger to which they
were exposed from the Blacks, amt which was so
pressing as not to admit 4 delay, he consented to
receive the articles, upon General Boyer a 41 Capt.
Barre, solemnly promising to ratify fresh articles
corresponiihig with his objettrons, immediately on
their a►rival at Jamaica. These Officers, however,
as soon as recessed f•ons the destruttion which threat-
ened them, tetused to subscribe to the terms upon
which that weary had been extended to them.
