LETTER FROM SIR BELLI NG HAMGRAHAM TO
•LORD GRANTHAM.
Lindley Hall, November 7, 1819.
My dear Lor&—lt is with feelings of great regret that I con-
sider myself called upon to resign my commission in your Regi-
ment of Yeomanry Cavalry.
In the situation of Commandant of the Clare Local Militia,
i and u the subsequent one of Captain in your Lordship's Yeo-
manry, both which Commissions were granted to me by Earl
Fitzwillinen, I considered myself happy in being an humble in-
strument in aiding the Civil Po mer of dig Country, when called
upon to defend our Constitution ; but in the reasons stated as
causes for the removal of Earl Fitzwilliam from the situation of
Lord Lieutenant of the West Riding of Yorkshire, I can discover
nothing but a manifest intention to infringe that Constitution;
I must therefore beg leave to tender you my resignation.
For the kindness I have uniformly experienced from your
Lordship, I beg to offer my most grateful thanks, and to assure
you how much I regret leaving a Corps, of which I had always
prided myself in being a Member. I remain, nay dear Lord,
Your obliged and faithful servant,
•
To the Lord Grantham, &c. Ste. . B. R. GRAHAM.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

FALMOUTH, Nov. 22.—Wind N.W.—Arrived the Montague
packet, with Mails from the Leeward Islands, 27 days from
St. Thomas's. By a Paper which we have seen, it appears that
the hurricane at St. Thomas's commenced the 21st of September,
and that at Barbadoes, began on the 13th October, and lasted till
the 15th ; Antigua has suffered least of all the Islands, so far as
accounts bad reached Barbadoes; and it was supposed little
or no damage tuid been done in the interior: but at Barbadoes
the damage was very considerable, in common with Tortola
and St. Thomas's : the loss in shipping is less than at the latter
place; but Bridgetown, and every parish in the Island has
suffered (some very materially), as well as some respectable indi-
viduals, who, with their families, have lost their lives.

laroitaterios TO Itlsaumas, relative to the Towers or Land-
marks on the Little Ross, at the modth of the harbour of Kirk-
cudbright.—Vessels coming into the Little Ross, must keep the
Towers on their larboard hand,. and sail till thdy bring them in
one, bearing S.W. ; and if there is not water tlnough on the Ear,
Vessels from 12 to 13 feet may come to anchor when they ha4e
brought the Towers in one. Smaller vessels Utast go further in;
and if it is four hours flood, when they have brought them in
one, keeping them so, they may sail directly up the Cbanr.el;
and, by giving the Torts' Perch a Birch, they may either
come to anchor in the lake or steer up the river. There
are 12 feet crater on the Bar at half flood of spring tides. The
Perches are on the starboad hand.

Extract of a letter received at the New England
Coffee-house : ,6 TORTOLA, Om 23.
" The Assembly of this Island have agreed to petition hle
Royal Highness the Prince Regent, for relief under the present
'Meting state of the Colony. They propose a remission, for a
certain term of years, of the colonial duty, amounting to 4i pee
cent. on their exports to the mother country, in order that they
May be enabled to replace their ruined works and habitations,
which otherwise must remain in a state of dilapidation, and
produce misery and want throughout the Island.
0 The Admiral on the Windward station (Campbell) paid this
place a visit some days after the hurricane, with a view,. it was
said, of affording relief to the inhabitants, but diaappeared as
soon as it was known that some Spanish vessels waited for con-
voy to the Main."
