lan, when upwards of two hundred and fifty perfons
I were preterit.
The 16th Light Dragoons marched into Dover
'this day, to do dal, nn that put of the cult, in
place of the rath regiment, which left Dover and
Hythe lift Friday for Houuflow, where they are to
do the King's duty.

Thurfday a Tivap of Royal Horfe Artillery, tinder
the command of Capt. MiCOMIALD, marched from
the Ar:illery Barracks at Canterbury, on its route
for W,-:olwich ; another Troop, commanded by Capt..
is expeded at Canterbury, from Watley,
in the place of the former.

Three companies of .the Second Light Infantry
Battalion of the King's German Legion are fill
here. Tney were left behind, in confequence of having
loft their floret and baggage in coming over from
Ireland. They are now refitting, and alma com-
plete. The circumftance of their thipwreck has been
often mentioned, but never hitherto correelly fated.
The following account may be relied on as authentic :
The tranfport Northumberland (marked letter Y.)
was loft on the Rundle Slone, off Scilly, on Satur
day, Both May, 1807, coming from Cork, with
Colonel natatory and Staff. and 270 men of tote
Second Light Infantry Battalion of the King's Ger-
man Legion.
At 9 A. M. the (truck, with fo much force, that
every body nn board believed the would inftantly
founder ; revere' guns of diftrefs were then fired,
which brought a Lieutenant of the Sea Gull, the
convoy, on board to examine her.
On infpeetion it did not appear mach damage was
done, and the wet ordered to make Falmouth, but it,
thort time the water increafed fo much, that it was
evident to all the could not fwim much longer.
Signal guns were again fired, but from the wind
blowing very hard, there was only one tranfport that
fent out her boats to AIM her.

The Northumberland being very crowded with
men, it required a frequent return, of the bats to
carry off the whole, which, at one time, it appeared
impoffible to effed.

Colonel Hee K Tv's behaviour on this occafion was
truly exemplary—he endeavoured to diflipate the
men's fears—alFtred them he would be the lark to
leave the (hip; and encouraged them to work bard, at
the pumps, as the only thing they had to do. When
the men were going into the boats, be made them
all leave their canteens and knapfacks behind, raying
their KING would give them others. A greater num•
ber of them were thus enabled to go into each boat.

During the time the boats were returning, there
was the greaten difcipline obferved, and, to do the
men jollice, they behaved with the greaten coolnefs,
relieving each other at the pumps at proper intervals.
This continued till (even, P. M. When the boat re-
turned the lan time but one, there were about as
many men left in the (hip, as would' fill two boats;
and by this time the water had fo much increafed,
and the gale blew fu much more violently, that it
feemed evident to every one that the (hid mutt fink
before the boat could again return. The men that
were to go in it then declared, one and all, that they
would not leave the Chip, unlets their Colonel accnm•
panied them ; and if he would not be faved, they
would perilb with him. This they per fined in for a
confiderable time; and it required the ciercife of fome
degree of authority in the Colonel to get them off.
But this was the only ocialion on which the eau.
I Lion of his authority was neceffary. Contrary to all
human espedation, the boat made its way back in
time, when Colonel HALII sty having feen that every
man was faved, jumped into it the 'all, and had not
been gone three minutes before the (hip funk, and was
feen no more.

To the !aft moment, the men were pumping up to
their middle in water.

The conduit of the man who plays the large bats'
drum, is worthy to_ be remembered ; he had been or
dered at the beginning of the Winds to go away in
one of the boats, when he attempted to catty his
bafs drum with 11im, 'which being of immenfe lice,
the Navy Officet'very properly refuted to admit, as
it took up the room of alma a dozen men. He then
laid he would five it, if he remained to the tall, and
adually (laid on board till the boat came for the lad '
time, when; havidg a liule more room, he carried off
his ptize in fafetyi
Thofe men who were fo rave& were difperfed
through the fleet, and on Colonel Hat.sarr's going
by chance on board one of the (hips that had got
leveret of them, the lively remembrance of how
much their fafety was to be attributed to their Colo-
, nel's firmnefs and refolution, Ilruck them fo forcibly,
that they received him with fuch a burl} of grateful
emotion, that there was no one prefent that was not
deeply affeited.
From Colonel HaLatTr's anxiety to preferve the
lives of the men, and to prevent their attention being
called from the pumps, he difcouraged all attempts,
both in officers and men, to fave their private pro-
perty. The confequence is, that all has been loft.--•
Betides their baggage, the Northumberland being the
Raff fhip, the officers have loft their whole meta uteri-
Gls and mak, dreffes of the muficians, &c. &c.
Colonel H.'s own lois is immenfe ; hut Govern•
ment, we have no doubt, will recompence that Offi-
cer for his meritorious emdue, in preferring the lives
of his Majedy's foldiers to pecuniary confuleratiomb
