terday morning. At day:light, the crew of a
Mitch vessel, nine in number, wer- driven-on shore.
They made a most wretched appearance, some
naked, and some only half-dressed, and all almost
dead with fatigue. At eight o'clock upon -lie
preceding evening; the ship had suffered so much
from the storm, that she had very nearly parted
in two, when they, precipitately took to their
boar, in which they were driven about at the
mercy of the wind and tides, until four in 'the
morning, when they came on*shore. 'the Vessel
was bound for London, with bales, butter, and other
valuable articles, *Our men are gone off to search
for the vessel. The Dutch Captain, the only one
of the crew that can make himself understood, says,
two or three other ships were wrecked about the
-same time and place, and that all the crews hive
perished.

A Paper of the 31.1 of May says—" We are in.

the 18th ula. that a few days before he sailed there

bitants of that place ; out of 562 persons only two
were spared. We are happy to learn that the Bri-
gands respeeird the persons and property of the
Americans who happened to be there."
Ii is stated, in a Paper of the 28th of May, that
one of the Fiench Frigates from Guadeloupe came
up to New York on the preceding day from Staten
Islar,d, and anchored near the City, in the North
River, for the purpose of taking in provisions. The
other Frigate was expeeled up the following day.
It was reported that JEROMe BONAPAKTE, and his
Lady, were to go to France in °neat' those Ships.—
It was generally believed that jrapht had received
a letter from his' brother, stating, that be should
send a Frigate fur him. The Dido and .I,ytelle had
sailed about three months previous from Rochefort,
aroops,:*xlid had landed them at Guadeloupe,
where they *ii7erkillockatied during some days by a
itish.74., and two Frigates; hut. the English Ships
having sailed for Dominique, the Frenett Frigates
slipped our, and got safe into New York.

. The French miscreants whw were rescued from
the fury•of the Blacks at • Sr. Domingo by British
humanity, and 'yet attempted to raise a rebellion in
Jamaica, were " fools as well as villains," for
woeful experience might have taught them that if
they raised another storm among the Negroes, it
would only have terminated in the dratroction of
themselves.

three millions to JOSEPH BONAPARTE, and seven

when negotiating the Peace of Luneville. The day
