The B.;Bona, Coi, is r.rrived at Liverpool from
Jamaica; the parted from the Reef the middle of
I April with a divinely of about ten fail : among them
were the Elisabeth, Mason ; Surprise, Ivlsnat.sis I;
Harry, Hulse ; and the William, Lawson, for Li-
yerpool ;—Chard, Ewa, for Brinol ;—Denance,
M'Laticamns ; Phcebe, Joass Nile, HANN° ;
Aurora, &mote ; and the Partisia, Moses, for
London: Mostly after parting they fell in with a fe.
laces and two Tehooner privateers, whics the armed
(hips beat of, but the William, being a dull tailor,
wis captured. The Bellona parted from the remain-
der of them on the t ith May, off Bermuda.
We have at length received the letter of our Wen
India correfpondent, ufoally fo very regular ; his
letter is dated Barbadoes, sd Apri!. We are glad
to find that the ifiands were all of them in a mull
healthy Rate; the isth regiment, at Barbadoes, were
particularly fa ; hardly an Officer ill in the Ifland, ex-
cept Dr. KERR, Infpalor of. Hofpitals for the Lee-
ward Mantis. It was long before the account of Sir
Jona Ducxwoarm's rencontre with the French was
known in the glands. Our Correfpindent Lys—
" The greareft praife is given to our own Admiral
(Cociransa) for his (hare in the aelion, from all
quarters; he behaved in the moil able and gallant
mariner; he is now with us in Caddie Bay, in a moll
crippled Rate." Sir A. COCHIIILHE is extremely po-
pular with the Well IndiAns ; he has been mnft
cefbfully alive in proteeting their trade. No lets
than Ave flout French privateers were taken in the
neighbourhood of Barbadoes in the fpace of three
weeks by our cruizers. At Barbadoes there has
been a flring of entertainments given to the gallant
Admiral, and poetic effunons without number have
celebrated the hero.
General BoWYEK and his fuire have all arriv'd at
Barbadoes well, and General Bpczwirm was about
to• return to St. Vincent's to refume the command.—
There is a general change of the Governors and Ge
neral Officers expelled in the Weft Indies; among
others, Lords LAT moroto and SEAUHITH, Generals
BECKWITH and Hssaor go home ; the two fir(
have taken their ;mirages. The 111 battalion of the
7th Font, or Royal Fucileers, quit' a faeleton, were
preparing to return to England, the t rth and both
to follow, as loon as relieved by the arrival of regi-
ments from England. Th.: only late death has been
the Hon. Colonel CRAIISTOWN, at Surinam.
