A letter from an officer of his Majesty's ship MA.
ottauNtstc, on her passage to India with Sir Rl''twit)
Kixn, dated Santa Cruz, April 29, says We
arrived here on the 27th instant, from Plymouth, to
take its a supply of wine for the ship's company, and
we intend to proceed on our voyage on the Ist of May.
Fhe lows rats, Commodore Sir Tams Yen, has
touched here : she proceeded on the 10th instant for
the coast of Africa, where her stay will be tour months,
then she whi go to England s,ia 13a;badoes. The
French frigate HermionAs arrived here i she has the
Duke de LtALZUMIG on briars!, going to the Brazils
as Ambassador to the King of Ponrocsu. It wilt
rather astonish to hear that Madeira wine at that
islaud is selling at the enormous price of £BO a pipe."
The ship Sparrow, Captain LAZAUOFF, belonging
to the Russian East India Company, arrived at Spit-
head On Tuesday, whence she sailed on the 10th of
March, 1814., on a voyage of discoverie; in the North
Pacific Ocean, hut more with a view to form two mi.
litary and. commercial establishments on the West
' Coast of North America-.4;namely, at the Island of
Rodiak, in lat. 53. N. I. 10. W. which is the nearest
part of the American Continent to the Russian este-
bliihment at K tratsehatka ; and upon a neck of land
California.cued rrom these they will be enabled to
carry on their tur.trade with China, with greater ad.
vantages; and their hotneward-bound voyage, with the
produce of China, will be likewise Greatly facilitated.
The Swarrow has been so tar as SS. O. North
190. 50. East long. She touched at • Kannschstka.
On the 10th of October, 1614, she discovered an
Island in lat. 13. 10. S. long. 163. 29. W. It is
aboirt eight miles and a half long, and seven miles
wide. Cocoa-nut trees and sea fowl were found upon
it. The rocks around it appear formed of solid coral.
it not being laid down in any chart, Captain LA
ZAItOF2 named it after his ship, Gi Sparrow Island."
It Appears from the great VANCOUVeR's tuck, upon
his published chart, that he :Mist have passed this
island in the night time. The Swarrow has a value-
ble_cargo of furs, which she took on board in Norfolk
Sound, with many articles, the produce oflthe coast
of P..ru. phe lay two months at Lima. The cargt
is not .estimated at less than one hundred thousanc
pounds, and so prosperous has been the entire of thi
voyage, that she has not sustained the loss of even a
rope or spar of any description, since she stile.' froti
Spithead. She has about fourteen rare animals of
board—species of the Lattitt,Arigoole metl'Alpacal.
They are intended as a. present to !tgitgroperor ui
