MACGREGoRs EXPEDITION.

DARIEN, (G.) Jrne7.-By captain Richard
son, from ST. Mary's. we learn that one of the
transports which had been attached TO Mac
Gregor's expedition (the brig Petersburg
Packet of London put into Cumberland Sound
on the 3Ist ult. for water. From her comman-
der, and by inspecting her log-book, captain
Richardson obtained unquestiOBable informal
ton of the destruction of MacGregors troops
at Porto Bello on the night of the 9th or 2Sth
of April last, precisely three weeks after that
city had eapitnlated to them. They were ia
ken by surprise at the dead of night by the
Spaniards, who gave no quarter and so COM
plete was the discontinue and so terrible the
carnage, that only about five of the patriots
escaped TO the shipping MacGregor was "a
shore and a sleep in his quarters when the at
tack commenced, and must have shared the
fate of his soldiers hut for the resolute courage
of his two aids-de-camp who, on the house
being beset rushed to the door and kept the
Spaniards at bay till he effected his escape
through a window and reached the beach.
where, though wounded themselves, they
joined him, when all three leaped into the sea
and swan to the Transports They had scarce
ly well gotten oil board the ship Monarch, of
London, when the batteries on shore opened
on them, but by cutting the cables, the vessels
got 10 sea without sustaining much injury.
MacGregOr aud his aids continued on board
the Monarch. Every vessel took such course
as safety devised. The force of the patriots on
shore al the time amounted to four hundred
and fifty. Gazette.
