CAPTAIN Ihrefethen arrived at the quar-
anime ground on Saturday last, IRON pas pas,
saterree, % days, informs that on the 29tn
MAY. two French seventy four gun ships,
arrived at Bassaterre, from Rochetoft who
sailed from thence in company with ave o.
-thrr ships; and that the two ships above,
mentioned sailed from thence on the "a
June, to join the grand heet at rinidaa'
where it was presumed they had gone.
CAPTAIN T. further informs that the brl-
fish packet Earl of Leicester, was captured
about Is leagues to the westward OF bar
BADGES, by French privateer, and sent in-
TO Guadaloupe.
From the above intelligence it appears
that a reinforcement has arrived from
France, for the purpose OF joining the
French and Spanish fleets; that the pefiod
of commencing its contemplated operation
against the British colonies was abour the
Is, OF Iune and that Trinidad is marked
out as the frs, object of .heirpredatory sPe-
culation.
Other accounts from the West Indies to
the soth of MAY state, that from the dispa.
si,ions which had been made by the COM
bined squadron, ii was probable they would
direct their first operations not only against
Jamaica but ST.. Kits and S. Vineents. No
meation is made Of their designing an at
tempt against Jamaice, which is known TO
be well fortified, and would be calamity
aad ABLY defended. These accounts also
confirm the Report that the troops on board
the Spanish feet were in very sickly con-
dition.
