One of the most gallant actors achieved during this war, or perhaps in the long and brilliant annals of British glory, has been lately fought in the Welt Indies, between his majcity's bring Pelican, of 18 guns, commanded by captain J.

Thefe veffels falling in fes, to windward of Guadaloupe, the Pelican, fecing the Freuchman of fuch fuperior force, made all fail away from him. The latter, however, had as great a fuperiority in failing, as in force, and foon, came alongside the English brig.. The captain of the latter, with that fpirit and heroifm which fo pre-eminently diftinguifh Britifh feamen, determined to fight to the laft; a warm action immediately commenced, which lafted for an hour and a half, during which the Frenchman was fo feverely handled, that he made for Guadaloupe, the Pelican in purfuit of him; and nothing prevented, the English heroes from making a prize of their enemy, but the vicinity of the latter to his own port. It is to be mentioned, kewife, that the Pelican took a yell! enfer convoy of the Medea, but was unfortunately retaken by fome and d boats fent out from Guadaloupe. ཀ་ན། As a proof that the Cape of Good Hope is not one of our conquefte which it is meant to furrender on re event of reciprocal conceffions, the in dia dia company gave a great dinner to lord Macartney and his fuite laft week, preparatory to his going out governor of that fettlement.

Soon after 11 o'clock, the subfeription for eighteen millions fterling, for the fervices of the enfuing year, clofed at the bank; and fuch was the general defire to funfcribe, that the court room was a fcene of the utmoft confusion. Many gentlemen were altogether disappointed; and thofe who could get near the books to put down their names, did fo with the utmost difficulty. There was very little remaining to be fubfcribed; for a great number of orders had been received by Mr. Newland in the morning from the country, which claimed a preference; and accordingly the doors were fhut fome time until thefe commiffions were written down. There is no doubt but many millions more would have been fubfcribed, if the public fervice had required it. Dec 7.
