HIS MAJESTY'S SHIP BARHAM.

The following is a more correct and detailed:
account of the Barham's grounding. Tlit
particulars may be depended on, as we has/
them from the very best authority. His MajestY
ship's Espiegle and Arachne were despatco
from Port Royal to afford her the requisite assio
ante, immediately on receipt of the news
CURAZOA, AfAY 4.—1 expected to have had the
sure of seeing yon by this time, and left La Gnayra an !Ili!,
28th, at noon; but on the same night, soon after to
night, the ship got on shore. on the weather paint °'
Buen Ayre, having run only 92 miles by the log.
As the sea was high, and tl•ere was consequently ma'
surf, the situation was one of great danger. We got tb'
sails handed, and the boats out with great alacrity, and II"
stream-anchor laid out nearly astern, in the only plar*°/;,
could find bottom, within 20 fathoms of the ship. It
not hold, so we ran out the kedge ft little further to le:
eastward, in 38 fathoms, not a cable's- 411th front t'
ship, and by it %sniped the launch with a bower-uirk°ll'
having the chain-stream-cable bent to it. We got it 8"
well, and let go the anchor about 80 fathoms from us ;
when they came to rear ont blie chain, it broke all ry
stoppers, and stove the boats and got foul among the roro
The wind and sea had risen with the day, and all that al
had done we were obliged to begin again ; but we got ad;
another bower and good honest old hemp cable, which
titnately saved the (ship, if not our lives. The stream lar
her from forging on, and when we got the hemp hove tigits
with a purchase on it, we swung the guns over the nor
hard bow, and made a raft of all our spare spars.
Still she did not move; and, as it was getting late, 1f
took advtattige of the sea having fallen to get some 00
through the surf, with the ends of hawsers and some sad'
to make tents.

A little befire six p.m. we made our last attempt for il'Ae
night, when happily the ship's stern came round into dr
fathoms water, and soon after she floated; but, as 's'4'
could not heave the cable in to get her into more than f"
fret forward, and t 4 fathoms aft, we therefore let go SO
second Tare anchor with a chain-cable, and hove it tangb!
by whirls means she lay pretty quiet all night, though
was a strong breeze and a heavy sea. Before
day dawned we had succeeded in getting out 10:
other bower, with a hump cable (the chains beisf
altogether unmanageable in boats), we winded the kir,
round, and before noon had the first hemp cable into 0;
starboard hawse-hole, so that the ship rode by both ; by
in doing this she struck the rocks abaft, and nearly is%
afloat. When both cables were in as short as possible
in heaving up the spare anchor, we found the fluke brokes,
which so often happens with chain cables. We slips°
the larboard bower, veering the ship to the starboard oPi
by the hawser to the kedge, which we afterwards no 01(
a spring, and made sail, but the bower came home, 61
spring broke, and the ship took the ground abaft, breki
ail the metal pintles, but did not stick fast. The wind ss`
sea was increasing, and the boats with the raft .could so
regiin the ship. I therefore ordered a double spring to
,V,
got on the cable and brought to the capstan, hove tP.
ship's stern up to the wind, cut the bower .cable, Os°
the spring, and clapping all sail on her, went throull!
the surf breaking over her, into deep water. It was os''
dark, the boats were not seen ; one chain-pump and ose
hand-pump disabled, the others just kept the ship fres'
the upper piutle gone, the rudder beat :lard .on the ate °
and transom. Before twelve we got it secured, and
wind having fallen, the boats and ,raft reached Us; WI,
there was too much swell till day light, when we tried
steer by the raft, but failed. However, before eight
got her to wear round towards the land, and made sail-
At this time got sight of a Dutch sloop of war Ors
from this to assist us, and aboat ten we made the lsoAi
again ; got a pilot from the Dutchman, and an anchor 5°
cable, and at dark made fast to the little Byer). AlI
while we made two temporary pintles; and leaving j
this morning at three, got here at noon, beating both the
Dutch men-of-war by two hours, though one of them is
flue corvette.
We have just hail the bottom looked at by a diver. fie
reports the tore part of the main keel gone, from forworl
AS far aft as the force ebeine; abaft some of the false ke'
left ; she had two feet. It is. impossible to say what -
the extent of the damage until she is cleared, nor would
it be prudent to leave this, as three of the bolts of the los
are up fire inches each. I have sent for the Ranger frol,
Antigua; and to you for stores, money, &c.. There
nothing here.
MAY s.—Since I wrote you yesterday, I have bad the
powder out, and part of the hold cleared, • there are 6,
least fifteen bolts knocked up •in the. spirit-room,
coal-hole, under the magazine, and, forward, with four
those which fasten the step of the fore-mast. The les!,
is from a font to thirteen and half inches, so that I fes,
we must heave down here, as it would not be safe to rio
the ship with all these fastenings so adrift, even if aceoo.; •
panied by another as was my intention. I .sencl off th',
little vessel, as we can do nothing till you send ne
me ins of looking at her bottom, andheg of you to as;
spatch her as soon as possible. All the pintles of 11'
rudder are gone, they are -41- inches diameter,,the new Os
can be made here.
