She had been captured by her Majesty's schooner Fawn, when
cruising on the Brazil station, and carried to Rio Janeiro.
The number of slaves the prize originally shipped from An-
gola, on the African coast, was MO, but when taken they were
reduced to 380, of which 180 were ordered by the British au-
thorities in Rio to be conveyed to the nearest British pert,

thither ; the remainder was left at Rio, on board her
Majesty's frigate Transcent, a vessel kept for that purpose.
Of the 180, twenty died on the passage from Rio to Berbice.
The prize is a brig of 250 to 280 tons. They consisted of
men, women, and boys, the most of them are very young, and
in a most miserable condition.
