This morning, a light brig was difcovered on lhorc.
on the North Sancrhead; it being ebb•tide, and the
wind blowing from the railward, the beats from
hence could not get to her affittance. Two boats
put off from Ramfgate ; but before they got to her,
the got off, without any apparent damage, and pro-
ceeded down Channel.

CHATHAM, MARCH 14.
The HF.RCULE, 74 guns, and the lurtaxist.l, 64
guns, are to be ptepared for immediate fervice ; as
is the ST. ALBANS, of so guns, at Sheer:refs.—Corn-
millioner CUNNINGHAM has affirmed the foperinten-
dence of the Dock-yards at Deptford and Woolwich.
The SURTEI LLANTE frigate, at Deptford, has under-
gone a complete repair previous to being commif-
honed.—The body of a youth, about is years of age,
was yelierday picked up in our river, near the Dord-
recht. It has not yet been afccrtained by what acci •
dent he was drowned.

Early yeflerday morning, Captain Baatrrnav, of
the Woolwich ltorelhip, arrived at the Admiralty,
with difpatches from the Cape of Good Hope. In-
telligence of a moll fatisfaelory nature has been re-
ceived by this opportunity, refpefting advantages
obtained by our cruizers in the Indian Seas over the
enemy. The Maria, a Dutch frigate, and two brig-,
have be en cut out of Batavia by his Majefly's frigate
CAROLINE, after a fpirited and determined contell.
By all accounts, this was as daring and gallant an
enterprize as any which has fignalized the prefent war.
Another fuccefs has alfo been obtained, which pro-
mifes no lefs fame, and far more advantage to thole,
by whole bravery and (kill it has been atchieved.—
'l'he Pallas, a Diftch frigate, has been captured in the
EaR Indies, by the GREYHOUND, of 32 guns, Captaia
ELPHINSTONS, and the HARRIER brig, Capt. THOMAS
Taounatact. She is the richeß prize that has been
made this war. She had a million of dollars on
hoard, befides a moll valuable cargo. Captain
TROU BRIDGE is the fon of the Admiral ; and the gal.
lantry and (kill which he difplayed on this occafion,
are the natural confequences of the brave Rock from
which he has fprung. The refpeetive fbares of the
Admiral, Sir I'HOMAS Taousatoos, and the Cap.
tains of tht GREYHOUND and Haaaass, it is fuppofed,
will amount to 50,0001. each.

I'he WooLwictr, we underhand, brings intelli-
gence from the River Plate of the loth of December.
The expedition under Sir SAMUEL ACHMUTY had not
arrived at that period. Our troops continued in pof-
fellion of Maldonado. The WuoLwICN failed from
St. Helena on the 28th January, and left lying there
his Majefty'l. fhip SAMPSON, with fifteen fail olhome-
ward•bound Eaft Indiamen. The SAMPSON had ar-
rived from the Cape of Good Hope, having landed
there tome troops, with General Gary, Governor of
the Cape. I'he SAMPSON was expected ro fail in a
few days for England, with the Indiamen under
convoy.
