Sir Charles Burrard, sent two gullies from Portland 7

glers on the coast, between three and five miles to
the eastward of this place. In the course of the
night it came on to blow so hard. from the southward
that both boats endeavoured twgain the harbour for
shelter One of them succeeded; but the other,
commanded by Mr- James Hall, Admiralty Midship-
man, was struck by a sea off Radcliff-point, when
that gentleman was washed overboard, and was never •
seen again. The coxswain, who had been carried
overboard by the same sea, was, by keeping himself"
above water, saved by the rest of the men, who
benched the Lent soon after, about a mile from the
Esplanade. Mr. Hull was 26 years of age, had
