YARMOUTH, NOVEMBER U.
Friday arrived the SHELDRAKE sloop of war, and
the schooner PIGMY, Lieutenant HUTCHINSON, from
the Baltic : on their passage home they encountered
very heavy gales, in one of which the PIGMY was.
obliged to throw her guns overboard, reserving two
to fire in case of greater distress ; and the SAL..
DRAKE had her bowsprit broken. Sailed for the
Texel the DRAKE, Capt. GRANT. The PatacEss or
WALES, Lieut. SOUTHCOTE, is bound to the Baltic,
with several pilots to bring home the Russian men of
war. The Robert and Sarah, WILSON, which drove
on Caister Beach in the late gales, is a complete,
wreck ; but the Fortune, of London, remains entire.
CORK, NOVEMBER 16.

The METEOR, Captain FISHER, which arrived last
week from the Baltic, left Admiral HOPE at Wingo,
in the EGMONT. The ships would leave the Baltic
generally, on the arrival of the Russian fleet at Got-
tenburgh ; the CRESCY was appointed to lead the first
'division down ; and the HAMADRYAD the second.
—The Russian ships are badly manned. The
ZEALOUS and ETHALION had sailed with supplies
for the ships in the Belt, which were straitened for
provisions. Admiral Mortars had gone to Hano, to
re-hoist his flag in the Vico.

look after the American frigates which chased the
GALATEA off the Western Islands. We find the
' Officers of the GALATEA mistook the whaler which fell
into the hands of the American squadron, off the
Western Islands. It was the Argo, not the Berkeley:
the latter ship is arrived at Portsmouth, and she
states the capture of her consort, the Argo. There
is little doubt but the American ships were Commo-

66 The Nymph, Captain Epworth, arrived here on
the 11th inst. with information that he had fallen in
with Commodore Rodgers' squadron at sea ; in con-
sequence of which the Shannon, Tenedos, Nymphe,
and Curlew, have sailed together in quest of him.--
It is conjectured he is gone to intercept the Quebec
and Newfoundland convoys. The San Domingo and
Africa are also out; the Poictiers is gone to the coast
of America, where she will join the Acasta and Spar.

Sailed on Friday his Majesty's ship STORK, Captain

also the DAUNTLESS sloop of war, Captain %meta, •
with the transport No. 112, having a detachment of
the 84th regiment for the depot at the Isle of Wight;
and a Dock-yard lighter for Plymouth. On the same

about ten o'clock, began to get under weigh—under
convoy of the CIRCE, of 38 guns, Captain Wooccostirc
DOTTERELL, of 18 guns, and PEACOCK, of 18 gums,'
It was nearly three o'clock in the afternoon, before
they get clear off the harbour, with a light breeze
from the N.N.E.
LEI l'H, NOVEMBER 19. •
It blew a very hard gale on Tuesday, with beavy:
squalls and showers of rain and hail ; in the lioadir
the ships rode heavy, with two anchors down, an&
several of them cut or slipped their cables and run
above the high land. The SARPEDON sloop of war
put back to the Roads with all her convoy, except
one ; they must have lost an anchor and cable each.
A brig came up the Frith yesterday, with loss of her
fore-top-mast ; a great many vessels ran up the
water, but we have-heard of no other damage. The
SmtPanon, with her convey, and three transports for
the Nore, sailed again from the Roads. The Boren
and SNAP sloops of war, sailed from.the Roads for.
Portsmouth, on Monday; but owing to the strong
easterly winds, did not get out of the Frith till yes-
terday. morning. .
