MARGATE, OCT. 3 t.—A moll melancholy accident
occurred Taft night upon the (ands called the Middle
Grounds, off the ifland of Sheppy : The Eagle, of
Cowes, Captain MtieAN, which had been tour day.
from Huforn, a port in the Duchy of Slefwick, and
bound to Lymington, with 38 Germans, two wo-
men, and two children, (truck upon the (ands, and
went to pieces between twelve and one o'clock this
morning; 26 of the paffengers, including one of the
women, have been loft, and the remainder, with the
Captain and his tailors, were brought in here this
Morning by the Difpatch packet, belonging to this
port, commanded by Captain REYNOLDS, to whole
activity and that of his crew the furvivors owe their
lives. The Difpatch hove in fight of the Eagle about
twelve, and at the ri(k of her own fafety immediately
approached her on the fignal of diftrefs being given.
REYNOLDS Rates that had it not been for the precipi-
tancy with which the men jumped into the boats, he
would have fileceeded in getting them all off, but in
confequence of their eagernefs one boat which belong.
ed to the Eagle was funk. All thefe poor Germans
were nominally Hanoverians, and furnilhed with
paffpnrts as filch. They were cradled for Colonel
DEACON'S regiment, and their palTage, &c. was paid
for by the Britifb agent at Hufum. I have teen the
furvivors, and certainly loch fpeftacles of wretched-
aefs 1 have never beheld—wan and meagre, and
miferably clad ; every look from them was a fuppli-
cation for pity, and they did not fupplicate in vain.
Every heart teemed to be interefted in their fate,
and before one o'clock above aol was collected
for them. More who had been immerfed in the
water were furnifhed with, blankets, &e. and the
poor woman, who has loft her hufband, has, with
her two orphans, been taken alhore and fupplied
with warm cloathing, &c. by a Mr. Nitwits,, a mem-
ber of that benevolent Society, the Qpakers, to
whom alfo the commencement of the rubfcription
is to be attributed. In this he has been active-
ly alEfted by Meffrs. Goma) and BITTISON. Major
PsaaiNs and Captain Wa io fir, of the Nottingham
militia, have been alto forward to coiled and equally
liberal to contribute to the relief of the unfortunate
(offerers.

The Difpatch is to fail with thefe poor men to-mor-
row for Lymington. Mr. Clan, the banker, has
advanced money to the Captain to furnilb them with
provifions and Come necellary cl‘athing, &c.

ed to the public, fold at 701 per cent. and refold, in
confequence of Mr. Appleton's not accepting it, at

Mr. Wilkinfon for many years ; but in February lall

himfelf a fubfcriber, and tided on his own account ;
