deception.

respeaing tIA operations of the French Force in the
West Indies, tho Ilizinson Senior, whose arrival at
Liverpool we mentioned, also brings advices that
the Enemy had levied contributions at Montserrat,

amount of zs,oool. It is also stated, that only two
of the Cork Fleet had arrived fears were therefore

they had -tent to'..infort*the.French Commander to
windward of their critical situation, and praying
for some assistance. There was a vague report at
St. Thomas's, that accounts had reached the Com.
modore of the French Squadron, and that he was
gone, or going, down to their relief.

Commodore /loon was at Antigua with a Line
of. Battle Ship and several Frigates.
