Copy of a Letter from Captain. 114udge, of hiajefty% Lite ihip
Blanche. to William ?Aar: Efq. dated on board the !reach
National Blip Tepaze, July 23.

Sir—l am lorry to inform you of the lots of his
Majtily's fhip BLANCHE, which was captured by a
French fqnadron, as per margin 5; but, thay.k GOD,
the was not dellined to bear French colours, or to
effift the fleet of tie enemy. On Friday naming,
July 19th, in lat. zo deg. 20 min. N. long 66 deg.
44 min. W. (weather hazy) at eight, four Gil were
Peen off the weather cat head, three (hips and a brig
on the oppofite tack, uncer eafy fail. I kept to the
wind until we were titer enough to diftingufth co-
lours. I then made the neceflary fignals to afcertain
whether they were enemies. At ten, when a-breaft,
about three miles diftant, they all bore up, and hoift-
ed Englifh enfigns ; but, from the make of the union,
and colour of the bunting, with other circumftances,
I concluded they were French, and therefore deter-
mined to fell the flip as dearly as poffible (for fail-
ing was out of the queftion, the BLANCHE having
little or no copper on thefe laft nine months, and
failed Veil heavy). Having brOught to, with the
mainfail in the braih, at eleven the Commodore
ranged up within two cables' length, thifted his co-
lours, and gave us his broadfide. When within pif-
tol (hot the received Ours ; the affirm became warm
and Heady, the (hips never without hail of each other,
running large, under eafy fail—le Department des
Landes on the liar board quarter, and the two cor-
vettes clofe aftern. At 45 minutes pad eleven the
(hip became ungovernable, and wasreducedio a per-
fea wreck ; the fails totally deffroyed, ten thot in the
foremail (expeaing it to fall every minute), the
znainmall and rigging cut to pieces, feven guns dif-
mounted, and the crew reduced to 190, and the reft
falling fall, with no probability of efcape, I called a
council of officers for their opinion, who deemed it
enly facrificing the lives of the remainder of as brave
a crew as ever fought, to bold out longer, as there
was not the tmallell profpeoft of fuceefs, I therefore,
at twelve, ordered the colours to be (truck, and was
immediately hurried on board the Commodore. At
fiz, the officers, who had charge of the Swore, re-
turned, and reported the (hip to be linking fad, on
which the was fired ; and, in about an hour after the
funk, for the magazine had been fome time under'
water. Thus, Sir, fell the BLANCHE, and I fruit, the
defence made by her offic4ts and gallant crew, will
meet their Lordthips' approbation. I have the ho•
mow to be, Itc. (Signed) 2•CHARY NUDGE.
P. S. Including every individual when the (hip
went into aftion, there were but two hundred and
fifteen, thirty men being in prizes, and eight left on
board one of the fi igates at Jamaica. I cannot ex-
aQly thofe killed and wounded, as the crews
were promifcuoufly diftributed to the different (hips
of the fquadron, but thofe that came immediately
under my notice,-were
