EAST-INDIA SHIPPING.

Yellen/Ay a Court of Dircaors of the Eaft In.
dia Company was held at the India Houfe, which
adjourned to Wednefday next. The Company's
fhips E,rl St. Vincent, and Sir Edward Hughes,
for Bombay, and the Britannia for Madras and
Ceylon, are ordered to be afloat on the ad of Fe-
bruary, and to be in the Downs on the 24th of
March.

Yeßerday advice was received at the EA-India
Houk, of the fafe arrival of the (hip Indian Chief,
from Bengal. which Prefidency The left in the
month of May laft. The Indian Chief is laden
entirely with rice, and was one of the firfl (hips
which failed from this country in the beginning of
the year. She arrived at St. Helena early in Au-
rat, and has only been fix weeks on her page.
The following (hips were at St. Helena, and ex-
paled to fail very loon for England, viz. The City
of London, Captain Abraham fitter), from Bengal
and Bombay ; the Earl Spencer, Captain Charles
Rain ; the Lord Walfingham, Captain Thomas
Smales ; and the Tellicherry, Captain Sampfon
Baker, from Bengal. The Hawke, Captain David
Brillow Baker, from Madras; the Cornwallis, a
Country (hip ; Mary Ann and Salamander wha-
lers ; and the Denmark, a Danifh lndiaman, de-
tained by the Governor and Council of St. He-
lena. All the above (hips arc expeded to arrive
in about a fortnight.
Moll of tire rice (hips were preparing to leave
Bengal when the Indian Chief railed ; we hear that
there is plenty of that grain on the coaft, and that
the (hips will all have compleat cargoes.
We underfland that the Indian Chief waschafed
by an enemy in the latitude of the Scilly Iflands
for three days, during a very brills breeze, but
efeaped, owing to a friperiority in her failing. The
enemy neared her in dole, that The was under the
neceffitr of heaving all her keret packets over-
board. We have nothing interefling from St. He
lena ; the ifland, we are happy to hear, was well
fiipplied, the Lord Duncan and Windham having
nearly filled the flores.
Independent of the fleet of (hips, which was left
at Saint Helena by the Indian Chief in Atigull
last, the following are to arrive this year, viz.
lass CJILIIAPAP.TM iloaabay Derfallan, Brisaaaia,

N.peane, Exeter, Mutts, the Earl Talbot, the Ganges and the
