DEAL. JANUARY 11.
About two o'clock this morning it came on to blow
hard from the S.. W. during which the Hon. Com-
pany's ship Marquis of Huntley parted from two
anchors and cables, drove athwart of the Marquis of
Fly, and carried away her foremast, bowsprit, figure
brad, and did her other damage—she also caused her
w part and drive nu board the Cabalya, and broke
the stock of her sheet anchor, and forced her to split
her best bower and chain cable,; in bringing the ship
up again she parted from het small bower: The
Bengal Merchant broke her anchor during the gale.
Four o'Clock—l have made the most strict enquit y
respecting the remainder of the shipping in the Downs,
and ant happy to say, I don't learn that any other
vessel hat suffered in the least during the gale.
Five o'Ctock—Wind West and quite moderate.
