The condo& of the fix unhappy mcn who
Coffered on Friday, at Portfmouth, for offences
fimilar to the above, durints the whole period
of their confinonent, had evinced the molt per-
fen refignation to their fate, and eonfcioufnels
that their offence had merited it. They availed
themfelves of the ailiflance of the Rev. Mr. JONES,
Chaplain of the TEM !RAM E. The manner in
which they applied for his pious offices in their be-
half will belt fhtw the dote of their minds, their
humility and the calm compoftire with which they
anticipated the dreadful hoot. Their application
was by letter, and in the following terms :

" Dear Sir, " GLAD1A:1011, Jan. 7, lllos.
■ We take the liberty of thus humbly begging you, in the
name of the Loull our Goo, to attend us, and aduainifter unto
us poor and miferable Goners the word of our bleffed Re-
m sirs.; as the hate we are now in is of the moll fcrious na-
ture, our bodies not only being in danger, but our unprepared
fouls ; therefore we humbly implore your affillance on this un-
fortunate eccaGon. Das not, pray, delay. as our time is now
exceedingly precious; we ther.f:ore conclude, humbly begging
your compliance. Yours, with humility,
" UNHAPPY TINIZIAIRDS."

" Rev. Sir. " His Majefty's Otip TriIIiCRAIRE.
0 We are now ready to hear you open to us thole treafures
of wifdant, in whole divine AOT no, we &fire to place our fo-
rams eonsdence, and in %Arnie fervid we wilh to be found."

When they came upon the platform a paper
was prefented by cnc of them in the name of him.
(elf and his unhappy comrades, which was read
aloud to the !hip's company. It was as follows :

" Remember your duty to GOD, and for his like to your
King and Country. You mutt be fenlible what was the chief
auk that brought on the fatal confequences which now ends
In unhappily for us, and with fo much remorfe to you, if you
rightly confider hen mach you have contributed by your fop. ,
port and countenance to bring us to this untinwly end.
" We refuted to put that trvft and ebnfideuce I. the wifdom
of our Rulers, which is due to them from all good fubJeds;
they watch for the welfare of us all : and how dared we then
prefer our awn felfilh pleafures and interefts to what they law
neceffary for the public good! How could we and it In our hearts .
to forfeit all the ;mires and the honours which our country bad
fo gratefully beitoWoi upon her Naval Heroes, who have fo
bravely fought for her!
"How could we In foolifitly (offer our impatience to get the
better of us. as for the fake of a few months longer fervice, to
facrifice all the blerangs of Peace we had been toiling for there
nine loag years.
" Of ! that we had made thefe rellecetions former ourfclves !
But our lot is eaft—our courfe in this world is finifhed. Make
good tile of what remains of your's. It cannot be long before
we rota all meet again before the judgment feat of that GOD
whom we have offended ; but who, we trait, has ken and ac-
cepted our unfeigned repentance, and will forgiven', as we do
tr.ly and freely forgive all thole who have any ways offended ar
injured us. Prepare yoatfelves alto, dear countrymen, for this
forgivenefs, that when we meet in the world to come, we may
got met b. evetlafting mifery.
" Pray for us—We heartily pray for you. " Amen."
