After tlescribin -the hurricane of

the Di h, a narrow escapefrota haxi!ig pe-
rished, iii con'squenee of running Coal of another

vessel, the Writer proceeds :
" 'cowards next day (the lOth). a calm came
on, .but the Water kept increasing i i the hold,
notwithstanding ail their pumpiii:4:, till it rose to
twelve feet high. AbOnt, that time they dileo-
vemi ten, :vessels at a diciatrte (the Hardy
brig and slifip Fr:endship) ; they .immediately
fired their guns as signals of distress, and then
threw them overboard—the ship all this time
water-logged and lying on her sdo ; a short
'time a boat reached them from the hi ig with her
Captain, who very kindly came to assist in rescu-
ing- the passengers and crew, .two boats' load of
whom were sent Off, part put on board the Rattly
and part on hoard the Friendship : the ship sink-
ing last, they, however, filled the boat the third
time, and then Capt. Clement, and Edmund (his
nephew), left the ship, the Captain of the brig in,
sisting•on remaining on board till all were out.
They had not left a 4ninute before they were
hailed by the cry that the ship was going
down, and before the boat could reach her she teas
completely out of sight, and all the people in.
the mater : those who could swill] were saved ; but
the Captain of the brig .anti three others were lost.
Capt. Clement's Mate at one time felt the Cap-
tain clinging to -him in the water, but he was
obliged to shake him off, or both must have been
drowned, and they had so many in the boat that
they wet e obliged to throw ahnost all the things
they saved from the ship overboard. One
Lady, a passenger, had a hoi: of jewels; worth,
upwards of a thousand ppunds, it hich was lost;
but I am sure they can never be sufficiently thank-
ful ,that their lives were preserved. Capt. Cle-
ment, with twenty others, were taken on board
the'Friendship; where he was a fortnight without
taking off his clothes ; but the Chief Mate, anti
eight besides, went on board the Ifirtly, which,
it was understood, was to sail for London, but
she has not since been heard of; therefore it,is
greatly feared that they are gone to the hOttom.—
Capt. C. was put on shore at ‘l'eynAouth about
nine o'clock do Sunday evening., and arrived at
Bristol about 'two o'clock on the morning 'of
Tuesilay.—NOne 'of the other' ships have yet
been heard of.

" The Leeward Island fleet arrived on Sunday
morniw,; but it is impossi6le to describe the
anxiety that is felr here for the vessels unaccounted
for.—ilie Captain of the brig was about t‘svo—
and-twenty years of age, and was to have beea
married as soon as he arrived.

" 1 believe I have now told you all I can re—
member of what I have heard; but evirpy time I-_
see any of them they have something fresh to,
relate. There were' 13 imscengers On boat:d,
