WEST INDIAN T,RADE.
The f Mowing Correspondence is placarded at the Jamaica
Coffee-house " Admiralty Office, Oct. 19.
•' Sia—l am commanded by my Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty to acquaint.you, that their Lordships, in reference to
a statement which has been published of a very savage outrage
committed by pirates upon the Master of the Blessing, think it
right to transmit you, fur the information of the West India
Trade, and of the owners of, and of those concerned in, the
Blessing, a copy of a letter which their Lordships have this day
received from Sir Charles Rowlsy, reporting that the whole
statement referred to was a gratuitous falsehood.—l am, Sir,
your most obedient, (Signed) "J. W. CROKER.
" George Hibbert, Esq. Chairman of the
Committee of West India Merchants"
" Serapis, in Port Royal Harbour, Jamaica ,
25th of August, 1822.
" Sta.s.aThe accompanying afSdavits, made by Hugh Hamil-
ton, a free person of colour, and Mr. Smith, the Master of the
sloop Blessing, respecting the plunder of that vessel, and the
'larder of her Master and his sun, are of so extraordinary a na.
tnre, that I take the earliest opportunity of putting their Lord-
elips into possession thereof.
" The motive of Hamilton, in disseminating a gratuitous false-
hood of the nature contained in his deposition, is not known in
this island, nor can anybody imagine for what purpose it could
Lave been done. He sailed hence on the Ist of this month, in ,
the ship Rebecca, Udney Master, for Glasgow, in the neigh.
bourhood of which place it is believed his father, Mr. Hamilton
West, a few years since an attorney in Jamaica, resides, and
where it is probable he may be heard of, should their Lordships
think the subject worthy of further notice.
" As fabrications have been frequent, and stories much ex-
aerated, respecting the molestation of the British commerce
in these sea% I feel anxious to trace, if possible, their authors,
and to be convinced that the object is not with a view to in-
crease or keep up the insurance.—l have the honour to be, &c.
