By a private letter from Barbadoes of a recent
date, we learn that his Majesty's ship Centaur, of
74 guns, ('apt. Littlebales, had arrived at that island
in December, in very good condition, after a pas-
sage of forty days; during which, in the latter end
of November, she was caught in a most violent
hurricane, which continued with unabated fury for
near twelve hours. The Netley schooner, of 14
guns, Lieut. Lowrance, had arrived there with dis-
patches from Plymouth, the 3d January : She had
exrerienced very bad weather on her voyage, and
had sprung her toremast, in addition to some other
damages.
The men of war laying at Barbadoes, when these
accounts caine away, are stated to be the Mt:theism,
of 74 guns, Commodore Hood and Capt. Ma;well ;
Centaur, 71. guns, Capt. Littiehales ; Ex:ellent, of 74:
guns, Capt. (slash ; .ffauvux, of 74. guns, C:tpt. Bland ;
rim/ia, of 36 guns, Capt. Moncur ; gun-brig,
of 14 guns, Lieut. Tierniers, commanoer ; and Net-
ky schooner, of .14 guns, Lieut. Lawrance, com-
mander. it was then reported that Capt. StoplA-.1
would probably sail for Lngland in the Castor fri-
gate.

A private letter from Grandville, (in ti-devant
Lower Normand) ) of Februa7 19, co•aains the fol-
lowing very melancholy intelligence The
day before yesterday, sevr. utcen young men, all of the
most respeCtoble connections, and of ssl:crn the
oldest was only three-and-twenty, arrived here,
stopped and dined at Piquenard's, a hi Porte de
France. One of them went down to the Mole—said
he was commissioned to purchase a small passage
vessel; when he found one that suited him, he paid
down the money, and engaged three seamen to
navigate herAs far as the island (:f Chausee (between
Grandville and Jertey) The seventeen young fel-
lows got on board just where the. peninsula is
formed, told the men to steer flit. Chausee, as they
expeeted to meet some friends there from Sr.. Ma..
loes. These, young people were all on the list of
Conscripts ; they preferred death to *the idea' of
being compelled to march, and they soon found.it.;
as, on approaching the island. whence they propcised
going to Jersey, their fragile Liaa.stiuck against'a
rock, split, and every* sotto` (twOtty in rmalbt.r) pe,
rished. '
