LOSS OF THE LAURESTINUS rRIGATE.
Accounts reached the Admiralty this morning of
the loss of his Majesty's ship LAURESTINUS, Captain
Gaaaaat, on the 26th August last, off the Bahamas.
The crew, with the exception of one man, were saved.
A dreadful hurricane prevailed on the above day, and
considerable damage was done to the other shipping
at the Bahamas.

The schooner General Burgoyne, of Padstow,
GEORGE WILLIAMS master, on her passage from Lla.
nelly to that place, with a cargo of coals, was totally
lost on the 20th ult. in a gale at S. E. off the Saltees.
The crew took to their boat and were picked up by
the schooner Maria, of Truro, and safely landed at
Milford.

The WARRIOR, Captain Lord Tortamorow, and
PRINCESS CAROLINR, Captain DOWNMAN, arrived in
the Downs 'on the 24th ult. from the' Baltic, having
sailed from • Wingo on the 21st. Rear-Admiral
GRAHAM MOORE had been expected at Gottenburgh,
from Carlscrona, about the middle of October, in
consequence of which the dispatches addressed to him
from our Government were detained there; but he
not having returned so soon as was expected, they
were sent forward to him, over land, as usual. The
Cmoti, Captain P. Rue, carries on the port duty in
Hawke Roads, and his ship is the depot for stores,
&c. The Sleeve squadron, consisting of the HAMA-
DRYAD, Captain CHETHAM; EREBUS, Captain Li-
FORD ; ARIEL, Captain D. Ross; and WoODLARK,
Captain BYRON, have captured a number of small
vessels and boats, crossing from Jutland to supply that
unfortunate country, Norway, with corn, &c. The
Danes however have succeeded in landing there some
supplies, but in such small quantities, that the relief
experienced was but transitory. On the 14th, 'there
was a dreadful gale at Gottenburgh, which did con-
siderable damage to a large convoy collecting there
under the CHEROKEE, Captain RAMAGE; THRACIAN,
Captain CARTER; FLAMER, Captain EALDwIN ; and
APELLES, Captain M,Vican. This convoy, after
having repaired as well as possible the effects of the
gale, was expected to sail for England on the 21st.

BURGHERsH, and £lOO,OOO in specie, arrived safe in

Lordship, who immediately proceeded for Russia by
way of Ystad. The PRINCESS CAROLINE accompa-
nied the DAPHNE as far as Anholt; but being over.
taken by the violent storm of the 14th, both ships
were obliged to return with the loss of anchors and
cables, which they parted with off that island. Four

Sound, from Archangel, under the command of a
Rear-Admiral. They are all new ships, handsomely
constructed and well appointed.
