I EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM ON BOARD HIS MAJESTY'S
SHIP GALATEA, CAPTAIN LOSACK, DATED ISLE OF
PRANCE, BTH OF JULY.
- - -

" You have heard, no doubt, of the terrible action
off Madagascar, with three French frigates, two of
which we captured ; for the particulars of which, see
the official report, which will react England at the
seine time with this. The little time I have to write
to you, will only admit of a few observations relative
to this ship, which I know will most interest you.
"We separated from our squadron the moment
the dreadful conflict ceased ; but this concerned us lit-
tle, as there vas no fighting afterwards. We had
four feet water in the hold, and the leak was fast in-
creasing. Our m ists were frequently in ffreat dan-
ger. Sixty-one of our complement were either killed
or wounded. Seventy-eight shots were found in our '
hull and masts ' • fifty-five of which were in the hull.
twenty-nine on the starboard, and twenty-six on the
larboard, besides several in the stern. Our First
Lieutenant, Mr. Bevis, was severely wounded in the
face ; the First Lieutenant of Marines was killed early
in the action, having half of his head carried off;
Second Lieutenant of Marines wounded, with the
loss of his thigh ; Quarter-master at the wheel was
cut in two by a shot, just as Captain Losack was ob.
serving tp him, " Sharp work, Mr. Black," the Cap.
tain himself had a narrow escape,—a splinter struck
his leg, Another his breast, and the seat of his trow-
sers was completely carried away, leaving his shirt
covered with blood. He was in every part of the
ship, animating the crew in an unequal contest; and so
you wilt say, when I inform you, that three Frenchfi
gates were upon us for two hours and a half, in con-
sequence of it falling a dead calm just after the com•
mencement of the action, which prevented the rest of
the squadron trsun coming up, notwithstanding they
used every effort to make way. The Racehorse ar-
rived first in port ; and, not finding us, it was feiired
we had gone clown. The French people appeared
not sorry for it, although they did justice to the hu-
manity of the Captain's brother, Admiral Losack,
when cruizing in the Jupiter, who suffered their grabs
to trade to Madagascar for bullocks, or they must
have been starved.
" We have saved Mosambique, which the enemy'•
frigates meant to attack : it is capable of being made
strong, but at present it has no garrison."

Murnasa.—ln the afternoon of Wednesday, an
elderly man 'of the name of Swinnock, known for
many years as a coachman on the Ramsgate road,
left Canterbury on his return to that place, with
pair of horses ; when about seven in the evening, as
two Gentlemen were proceeding along the road Irons
Minster Mills, tow ards St. Laurence, the it attention
was arrested by some indistinct groans, which, how-
. ever, passed unheeded, till they overtook a loos*
horse with a saddle, and without a rider, which in•
fussed them to return immediately to where the glows
were heard, and on searching they discovered the
alsosee unfortunate man, lying dead in a field a fey}
rgds from the road, at a place called Thorn i with
proper assistance the body was conveyed to the nearest
dwelling, and on eriminAtion, two wounds, Appa-
rently from bullets, were perieived in his side, but
excepting his hat and wig, which have not been foam),
it did not iippear that he had been rubbed, there bring
both money anti notes in his pockets. It is conjec-
tured, therefore, that being very deaf, he had not
beard the demand of the t obbers to stop, :.nd that
they in consequence fired at him, and afterwards drag-
ged him from the road into the field with intent tomb
him, but were prevented by heal-in.; the appro..ch of
a gentleman who, it was s lid, saw ,f,e tiasi .sild heard
the report of a pistol, and immediately rode to the
aearest house, to give an alai rn. On the s eve+i-
jog, at nearly the above hour, a one horse chaise,
iu
which mere two persons, was stopped a, the corn r of
the road leading trcm St. Laurence to Sandwich,
and the parties robbed of some saver and a CI note
(which it is said was a fictitious oiw). This robbery,
comeined with the above statement, cxci es a stroi g
suspicion that two privates of a nap the `.3.1
Light Dragoons, stationed at Ramsgate, and who de-
serted on the same evening in their stable dresses car-
rying with them their pistols, .re the perpetrators
both f the robbery and murder. The deceased
was a native of Ramsgate, and much respected in his
line, for his civil behaviour and inoffensive manners.
