loft, went into dock at this yard, about five or fix
years ranee, and received a molt complete and tho-
rough repair. Every defettive plank, board, knee,
ribs, Ice. were taken ont, and replaced with fea-foundi
timber, by die care of the then builder and his aff•
ants of the dock yard. When the was turned out of

01 About eight A. M. oldie sob the MAOIIIITICIIIT
bete on one of the black rocksrin the Bay of Breit,
and by MI pet tea, bat a Beall pert of her poop
was to be fern above water. The main and :Mum
malts bad been previoully cot away, to prevent her
falling entirely over, and finking• in deep water. This
happily had the deflred effell, for above zoo people
remained on board for fosse time till the boats of the
other Rips is company could tome to their relief.
This was attended with great difficulty, as there was
a great lea and Itrong tide, fo that it was very dan•
serous to approach the flip. After much exertion,
however, the greateft part of the crew were Caved,
and put into a cutter and fchoofter. There were left
en board f 3, including a Lieutenant, three Marine
Officers, and rem Midfhipmen. Hopes are entertained
that they are laved littwife, as they were leen in the
boats seem and it is fuppofed they drifted on More

either in Come of the ides& or Oft the main. If fo,

they are prifoners in France. The fuddennefs of the
fhipirreck prevented any thing, e►en the cloaths of
the crew and °Seed!' being fared• Thole who were
faced, however, experienced every Unclad' from the

poled to have flruck upon a funken rock. Her de-
flyttelion was In fuciden, that though one of the Ber-
wick fmacks, Captain Banwa, was at no great dif-
ranee, and every exertion was ufed, only two of her
crew could be prcferved. Her name we have not
