(‘ Point Petre, Gaud. Peb..l7, 1805.
I am sorrrto inform you Of the capture of the
Helena, on the toth inst. three degrees to windward,
of Barbadoes, by the Revolution Privateer, of 14
guns andi vt) men, after a close :talon of two hours,
during which they made several attempts to board
ug, but 'were repulsed with considerable loSs. Be-
sides their great gUns, they kept pouring mus-
quetry into us without intermission, which disabled
the ship very much, wounded one man severely, and
drove several others from their quarters.—Finding it
impossible to keep her any longer from boarding us,
(having no nettings and the weather being mode-
rate) I was under the ratessity of surrendering.—,
The Privateer suffered considerably in her sails
and rigging but they would never let us knOw how
many men ;hey lost. They must have lost a good
Many, for their decks were full, and we plied them
pretty well with grape and eannister shot."

' A regulation with respeCt to the time of the dif-
ferent Convoys sailing from England is to be adopt-
ed, for the purpose of keeping their departure as se-
cret as possible.
The 'Ordnance Board have signified to General
LLOYD, who commands the Artillery at Woolwich,
that the Ifix rot at that place is no longer to bear
that name, but to be from this time denominated
the " ROYAL ARSENAL" The old name bad its
origin from the place having aetually been a rabbit
warren, and the name of one of the tamest ani
mals, was certainly ill-suited to the nature of the
place. On the recent Royal visit to what was called
the Warren, where all ordnance' stores, ammuni-
tion, Sze. are now lodged, His 'MAJ.E'TY noticed
how little appropriate the name Wag to the place,
Sze. and suggested the propriety of changing it to
that of " Arsenal." The Master-General admitted
the justice of the idea, and instantly adopted it ;
and henceforward, in compliment to His MAJESTY's
suggestion, the Warren is to be called." Tull ROYAL
