went on board, and found the vessel in the greatest
distress. The severe
.gales had blown all her sails
away, and rendered her so.unman.ageable, that the
crew, after using every effort,' became so exhausted,
that they had lathed the hektn 2.lee, and given her up.
to the mercy of the weather. One of the poor fell
lows lay dead on the deck, worn out by fatigue. She
had been seventeen days from Dublin, and was bound
to London. The CYANE towed her into Portsmotah.

The Fame, HARVEY, from Bengal to London, has

During a heavy gale on Sunday se'nnight the brig
Rover, Thomas master, from Liverpool, for London,
with sugar and staves, lost two anchors and cables,
and drove on shore on Ryde Sand.
We have much satisfaction in stating the arrivat
of the Donegal, of 74 guns, Captain MaLcotata- and
Revenge, of 74. guns, Captain NASN, on Saturday
morning, from off Cherbourg, after lkving, 14 con,
junction with the Diana, of 38, Captain GRANTI,. aPd
Niobe, Captain Loam, of the same force,' driven on
shore two French frigates, which escaped-out of Fla
vre, and which, if they may not be totally destroyect
(as istextremely probable), are rendered of no rurther
service to his Imperial Mikksty.—On Monday night
lift, during the gale, they sailed from Haire with
the intention of reaching Cherbourg, that port :ford-
ing facilities for escape which Havre does not. The
Diana and Niobe being frigates (notwithstanding the
very unfavourable state of the weather) close on their
station, .got sight of them soon after midnight, and
chafed ; but the wind shifting more to the
northward, they were enabled, after receiving several
broadside% to take shelter under Marcou. They
'weighed from thence the following day, and the tides
preventing our frigates from approaching them, they
that evening contrived to reach the anchorage of La
Hogue. Finding, hawever, that our frigates intend-
ed to attack them on Wednesday, one of them ran on,
'the rocks of St. Vast, where she lies on her beam ends.
The other ran into the shoal of St. Vast, between the
'batteries of La Hogue and.Tatihou. On Wednesday
afternoon, the Donegal and Revenge, ships of the
line, joined, and means were imniediately taken to
'attack the frigate that anchored in the shoal : it was
impossible to reach the other ; indeed her loss seemed
certain.—Accordingly, the whole of the ships (choos-
ing the most favourable time of tide) Stood as close
in as they possibly could, and fired tlteir broadsides
at her three several times. On the same night our
ships again stood in, and threw rockets at her. On
Thursday morning it was discovered that the object
of their attack had also run aground near to her con.
sort z and both frigates were left on their ,beam ends
,by the Donegal and Revenge on that day, watched
by the Diana and Niobe. Unless they are got off,
repaired, and make their escape from their present
situation, before an easterly wind sets in (and this
seems impossible), they will be totally lost: As every
effort was made that skill and gallantry could suggest
to effect their destruction, it must be expected that
our ships have sustained some loss and damage. They
sustained the tire of the batteries of La Hogue and
Tatihou, and that of the enemy's ships, for a consi.
derable time ; during which the Donegal had three
men wounded, the Revenge seven wounded (two of
them since dead), and the Diana and Niobe had each
three men wounded. The names of the frigates are
I'Amazon and l'Elize, of 44 guns each. Our ships
suffered most in their masts and rigging. One unfor-
tunate shot (a 42-pounder) entered the lower deck of
the Revenge, and actually took off five legs from three
men, and wounded four others. The two poisr fellows
who lost both their legs are since dead. The Done-
gal and Revenge left the enemy's ships at Cherbourg
with their yards and topmasts struck. They were to
tail again yesterday to resume their station.

Saturday morning a Court Martial was held at
Portsmouth, on Mr. HENSON Ban ark,-. Assistant.
Surgeon of his Majesty's ship Oaiow,Tor carrying on
shore the necessaries allowed to the sick of the ship:
The charge being clearly established, Mr. Barker was
sentenced to be dismissed his Majesty's service.--;
Rear-Admiral HARGOOD, President.

A Court Martial was held on the 9th and 10th lug.
and on Monday last, at Portsmouth, on Lieut. Jo**
GEARY, of his Majesty's schooner MULLET, fnr not
having done his utmost to execute the orders of Sir
ROBERT-CALDER, in proceeding with the mails to Su-
rinam, terbice, and Demarara, but rettrtled twice to

him to be severely reprimanded.

The tremendous gale has done very extensive da•
mane amongst the timber in the parks in the neigh-
bourhood of Stamford. In the Marquis of. Exeter's
beautiful domain, more than roc) large trees have been
blown down ; many of them in avenues, the regularity
of which is of course destroyed by the chasms. In
Wrlcot Park, the estate of Nevile Noel, Esq. 400 trees
are destroyed • and about the same namher in the
park of ColonlNoel, at Exit', and of Earl Winchel-
sea, at Burley, including in the latter an entire avenue
of chesnuts. In Normanton Park (Sir Gilbert Heath-
cote's), 50 trees are blown up by the toots, and about
Altnany broken in half. A spinney below the house
r•is nearly annihilated. Atthe Earl of Westmorland's
21 trees are lying between the Mamion-h >use and
Moorhty-lawn, and a great number in Apethorpe
Park, 50 at Luffenham, 13 at Bourne Abbey (Mrs.
"ochin's), 7 at Stocken-hall, 390 upon and near the
road between Stamford and Leicester. Twelve-fine
young elm trees on Miss Tryson's estate 'at Glisten,
were torn up by the roots, and more than 50,yards
of her garden wall, which was plaut:d with choice
fruit trees, blown down.

Dduring the violent stnrm, as Mr. T. Whimper, of
Ajderum, Suffolk, was riding near the marshes tlitore,
in attempting to leap his horse over a ditch, he tell in
backwiitrds with his horse, and was drowned.

Friday nigh 4, and during the whole of Saturday,
we experienced 4,trenaentlous gale from N.E. accom-
panied by heavy rain. AbOut noon, on Saturday, the

Same morning, As Mr. Joseph Nead, a respectable

horseback, a large tree, on the side of the turnpike-
road, near 1-jighnam, was Islciwn down At the minter%

On the mountains of Gloucestershire there has been
a severe storm of - snow. Several carriers crossing
them in the night have perished, and during the high
wind a tree was blown down on one of thole unfortu-
nate men, which killed him on the spot and broke his
horse's back. In the rallies the weather has been
more temperate, but the violence of the wind and rain
has been outrageous. At Cheltenham, the former
has carried off the entire roofs of several houses, and
damaged many others.
OXFORD, NOVEMBER 17.

During the whole of Saturdaylast, this city, and
its vicinity, was visited by .one of the highest winds
ever remembered by the oldest inhabitant. it com-
mitted great devastation in the country round about;
and did much damage to several houses in various
parts of this city The church of Dunstew was en-
tire)); unroofed, and the lead blown to the distance of
30 feet from its original situation. Many trees have
received great injury; one in Merton meadow, and
also one in New college garden wereentirely destroyed.
Throughout the greater part et .the day it rained in-
cessantly, in consequence of which there is stills great
,flood in the neighbourhood.

they, with three of their coMpattions, proceeded down
the stream, till they came near a bridge, where their
three companions, alarmed at the increasing force of
the current, left the boat, and with difficulty reached
