HULL, Nov. 4.—The"William, -Captain GREEN,
arriN,ed here on Friday from Gefle. He sailed
from Hano Bay, Oct. 9, with about 200 sail, tin-
der convoy of a frigate and some other vessels of
war -Ten days after the fleet sailed, they separat-
ed in a heavy gale of wind and thick weather.
Captain G. was informed that about 50 sail of
vessels were driven on Rugen Islawl, including a
sloop of war and a gun-brig ; also four vessels
were run down at sea. On the 23d inst. Capt.
G. could only discern 30 sail of the convoy. A
Shields brig, outward bOund., was captured in'the
Belt, a.td afterwards burnt. When the William
sailed from Gefle, the other vessels were expected
to be ready for,sea. in a few days.

Extract of a Letter from Hano, dated the 19th
of October, 1812 :—" Of the convoy that sailed
on the 9th, a great number of vessels are come
back, and among them are the Harnionia,
and the Catherine, SCHULTZ, Neither of these
ships has sustained the least damage. The con-
voy sailed with the fairest prospect. We have
seen dispatches from this rendezvous ; but it ap-
pears, that from the day they left Rano they were
enveloped in a thick fog, which Captain HILCH
describes as the darkest he ever met with, and
which continued all the time he had been out.—
From this circumstance, the ships of war were in
a manner useless, as it was impossible for the
merchant vessels to keep with them. The convoy
sailed on Friday, and on Sunday had reached
the entrance of the Belt, whey a heavy gale came
on, and several vessels were lose on the Danish
coast. It is not yet. accurately known how many,
but Captain litt.ctt says he saw twelve on shore.
We know of one ship being taken by the Danes,
and we fear when-the cprrect returns are received,
a great number will he found captured or strand-
ed. Admiral MORRIS has struck his flag on board
the Vigo, and proceeded yeSterday overland to.
Gotteninirgh ; in consequence of this arrange-
meat the I'igaremains here some time longer, but
nothing further has transpired about convoys or
sailing instructions. The convoy of the 19th ult.
'from Gottemburgh, arrived otf-this place on the
17th instant. Riga is yet safe."
• Several sloops of war and gun-vessels are order-
ed to be built without delay. •

Yesterday a Court of Directors was held at the
East Indiailonse, when Cap ain R.. NISinLT was
• sworn into the command of the ship Essex, 'con-
signed to Madras and China.--The Court ad-
.
journed at 'six o'clock till 'Wednesday next.
