FOREIGN INTELLIGENCE.
AMERICA.
New York, May 5, 1779.
BY Accounts from Georgia, we are informed that the Royal Army are in good health, well provided with Necessaries, and augmented by the resort of great numbers of Loyalists, and extreme desertion from the Rebels: In one day 40, and presently afterwards 60 Indians, had come in to Gen. Proost, who assures the Commander in Chief that 300 more of the Southern Tribes were on their march to cooperate with the Royal Army.
Extract of a Letter from Georgia, April 7, 1779.
"I suppose you have heard of a compleat beating the Rebels got at Briar Creek, and the taking of the Gallies in this River, the Indians having joined us, Col. Maitland commands the advanced Post of the Army, near Augusta. Lincoln's army are deserting by scores across the River Savannah. By a Flag from Charlestown, we hear, that all the People are packing up, and retiring to the Mountains.
Georgia, April 7. Five hundred North Carolinians (pressed into the Rebel Service, after their General Robt. Howe's defeat and the taking of Savannah,) marching to augment the body under Gen. Lincoln, as far as Georges Town, were informed of the defeat of their Army under Gen. Ash, on Briar Creek, they wisely faced about to the right, disbanded, and returned home to cultivate the more profitable arts of Peace, on their own Plantations.
New York, May 1. A few Days ago a party of the King's Milltia Volunteers made a descent on Black-rock Harbour, opposite the town of Fairfield, on Connecticut and two Miles from the the Town. About 1 o'Clock they advanced to the House of Brigadier Sullivan, where they seized upon that General, who is held in high estimation in that Colony, and at three o'Clock the next Day safely landed Mr. Sullivan, with his son at
of Brigade, at Oyster-bay.—The Country was thrown into great consternation from this successful enterprize, projected and commanded by Capt. Bonnel, whose party consisted of Capts. Glover and Silith, Lieut. Huble, Messrs. E. Lewis, Jabey Benedict, Rae, Pat. Moore and Alex. Graham.
ENGLAND.
Portsmouth, June 13. Last Friday sailed Admiral Edwards, with the East India and other Ships.
London, June 15. This Morning an Express was sent down to Portsmouth from the Admiralty, with orders for Sir Charles Hardy to put to Sea immediately, to watch the motions of the French
16. This Day the Spanish Ambassador delivered to Lord Weymouth a Manifesto from the Court of Spain, next day it was read in the House of Commons, and our Ambassador recalled from the Spanish Court; Orders-were immediately sent to the different Ports in England, to seize all Spanish Vessels, &c.
23. Commissions, passed the Great Seal to impower his Majesty's Governor's in America, and in the East and West Indies, to issue Letters of Marque for making reprisals on the Spaniards, according to Proclamation.
Yesterday. Col. Campbell, -who so gallantly distinguished himself in Georgia, waited on his Majesty, and was most graciously received; the Col. has undertaken to raise 2000 Men in Scotland.
East India House, June 23. Whereas, at a general Court of the united Merchants of England trading to the East Indies, the following motions were made and agreed to unanimously; The United Company of Merchants, trading to the East Indies, taking into their consideration the critical situation of National affairs at this juncture, when these Kingdoms are under well founded apprehensions of an immediate invasion from the inveterate Enemies of this Realm, and thinking that the existence of the Constitution and Commerce of Great Britain, depends on the superiority of its Naval force, to the now combined House of Bourbon; do resolve, that it is a duty incumbent upon all the Subjects of this Country, but more particularly on Commercial Societies, to make every possible exertion to strengthen this most important and Constitutional defence.
Resolved, That the Company at their own expence, do forthwith offer a Bounty of 3 Guineas each, to the first 2000 able bodied Seamen, 2 Guineas each, to the first 2000 ordinary Seamen, and 1 Guinea and half each, to the like number of able bodied Landfmen, who shall voluntarily enter themselves on Board his Majesty's Fleet, from and after the 23d of June, and that the said respective Bounties be paid over and-above all other Bounties whatsoever, and without fee or deduction.
Resolved, That this Company at their own expence, and with all possible dispatch, do cause to be built 3 Ships of War of 74 Guns each, with Masts and Yards, to be delivered to such Officers as his Majesty shall appoint to receive the same.
Resolved, That a Committee be appointed to prepare and draw up an humble Address to his Majesty, to express our duty, and affection, and to convey these Resolutions, to the Throne.
And, Whereas by reason of a Bye Law existing, they could not be carried into such speedy execution as the wishes of the Company, and the urgency of the case required, therefore the Members of the said Court agreed at their own risque, to carry the same into immediate execution, and wait the indemnity of a general Court.
June 25. Twelve hundred Sailors were last Night imprest on the River Thames, in which Masters, Mates and Boys were included, none of which were discharged when this News left England.

June 25. Yesterday his Excellency Governor Johnston took leave of his Majesty, and this Day he set out for Portsmouth, to take the Command of his squadron of Nine Ships of the Line, and proceed to Lisbon, being stationed to Cruize on the Coast of Portugal. He goes out as Commodore.
This Morning the Hon. East India Company received some dispatches from their settlements in Bengal, which were brought over in a Danish Indiaman, by which we learn that the Osterly is taken, and carried into the Mauritias.
London, July 6. The King has been pleased to appoint William Dundas, Esq; to be Warder of his Majesty's Mint and Coinage in Scotland, in the room of James Hay, Esq; deceased.
There are building in the Royal Dock Yards, upwards of 20 Men of War, for Government's service, from 40 to 90 Guns, exclusive of what are building in private Yards, several of which will soon be ready for service.
On Monday last an Order was dispatched to all the Sea Ports to lay an Embargo on all Ships, that none may put to Sea until all the Men of War which are wanted for immediate service, have got their full compliments of Men.
Our Privateers continue to be very successfull, and as hostilities have been commenced between Great Britain and Spain, hundreds are fitting out to Cruize against the Spaniards: there were great rejoicings in England on the Spanish Ambassador's taking leave.
It is confidantly reported, that as soon as Admiral Arbuthnot arrives in America, things will go very well with the Royal Army.
Between the 1st and 6th of July, the Spanish Fleet, consisting of 12 Ships of the Line, has joined Count De Orvilliers, so that the joint Fleets now consist of 42 Ships of the Line besides Frigates.
Admiral Sir Charles Hardy's Fleet has been joined by three Ships of the Line, and he soon expects more: Notwithstanding the superiority in number, of the joint Fleets of France and Spain, the English Admiral is resolved on giving them Battle as soon as possible.
Yesterday advice was received that Admiral Sir Charles Hardy, was on the 3d in the Morning, within sight of the French Fleet, steering W. S. W. distant from Ushant 11 Leagues, with the signal for a general Chace; that the French shewed no disposition to come to Action, but stood away with all the sail they could make.
By Letters from Sir Henry Clinton (to Lord Amherst) at New York, it appears he has raised 7,000 Forces, all Loyalists, and by the same Packet which brought the above returns, he requests an immediate supply of Cloathing for the same.
CALCUTTA.
On Saturday last, the Governor General, attended by the chief Engineer, visited the Forts of B. Budge, and expressed great satisfaction at the new Works, carrying on there. The Governor General was saluted both on his arrival and departure, with 19 Guns.
The Governor General and his Lady, Sir John and Lady Day, Mr. and Mrs. Sampson, Col. Watson, Mr. Baugh, and several other Persons of distinction, honoured Major Mestayer the commanding Officer at B. Budge, with their company at Dinner on Saturday.
General Orders by the Commander in Chief, Futty-gur, Jan 22, 1780.
"The Commander in Chief, with the most unfeigned pleasure, adopts this Public method of testifying the satisfaction he has received, during his residence in this truly Military Cantonment: The common place language of the mere approbation of a Reviewing General, bears no part in this Address, the sentiments flow from a more expanded and liberal source, the effusions of Sir EYRE COOTE's feeling, at proving the Troops at this station, so highly distinguished and finished in their discipline, and so worthy of every encouragement within the power of their Commander in Chief to bestow on them.---Matters of fact alone appears the strongest elogiam that approval could direct on the subject, we need not only advert to the Reviews and Exercises of this Week, to ascertain the justness of this assertion. Lieut. Col. Wilding, and the Corps of Officers, deserve the General's thanks for their unwearied attentions, that has placed the Detachment at Futty-gur in the most conspicuous point of view.---The LAUREL seemed always to the right of the Reviewing Corps, till the succeeding Day erased every idea of distinction, and left the Military Judge undetermined where to give the preference. The General desires that both Europeans and Natives, may have his sentiments of their appearance and deserts made known to them in the fullest manner; and that their steadiness and discipline convinces him, that whenever actual Service gives them an opportunity, they will amply repay their Officers, for the pains taken, and approve themselves highly Disciplined Troops in the fullest extent of the Word.
Extract of a Letter from Belluah, dated Feb. 2.
"A most melancholy accident happened here a few Days ago: As a Gentleman and his Servant wer hunting a wild Boar, the Animal taking refuge in a thick Wood, they were induced to alight, and, in searching for the Boar, they sprung a royal Tigar, which seizing upon the Servant and wounded him in so shocking a manner in several parts of his Body that he expired in two Day following. When the Animal was first dis-
turbed by the Dogs, he Yards of the Gentlema, but he fled direct from him, and passing through the Thicket, met the Servant who had gone round; so that it was impossible for the Gentleman to give him any timely assistance.
We hear that the Gentlemen Civilians mean to return the compliment of the Officers Masquerade, with an elegant Fete Champetre; either at Baraset, Dundum, or Russypugly, and that decorations and Lamps of a new construction, are already preparing for that purpose.
We are happy to inform our Correspondents, that the Gentlemen who have lodg'd their Money in the hands of the Chinese Merchants at Canton, have the most flattering hopes of recovering their Property, from the disinterested and spirited conduct of his Majesty's Naval Commanders.
By Advices from Madras we learn, that a body of Troops in the service of his Highness, the Nabob of Arcot, who were dispatched under the command of Capt. Graham Campbell, to reduce a refractory Polygor to obedience, were entirely defeated, and Capt. Campbell killed in the Engagement.
We hear from Madras, that all the Field Officers are called down to the Presidency, to Gen. Stuart's Court Martial.

POET'S CORNER.
For the CALCUTTA GAZETTE.
On SILIMA, a Favourite CAT.
WHILE others Cloe's charms rehearse,
(Charms that have claim to noble Verse,)
Let me in Panegyric lays,
Sweet Selima refound thy praise.
From Persia's vales, in skittish sport,
See Selima, conveyed to court:
In Beauty's lap reclined with grace,
The softest of the Taby race;
While conscious of her happy state,
She stretches forth her velvet feet,
And waves her bushy tail erect;
Her tail with ebon tinges speck't,
Contrasted by such snowy down,
As Selima can boast alone.
The fair one smooths her darling's fur,
And listens to her grateful pur:
Fondly admires her fleeky coat,
The ruff that decorates her throat.
What favourite bless'd with such caress,
Would so much gentleness possess?
Who can unenvious view thy bliss,
Who but would with thy lot were his?
Sweet Selima! this happy state
Preserve, nor know a fav'rite's fate.
Thy nine long lives in pleasure reign,
Unruffled with a moment's pain;
And when grim death shall seize thy paw,
(For even Cats obey his law:)
O'er thy cold grave we'll flowrets strew,
And each kind Puss thy dirge shall mew.
B.
To a Gentleman overset with a young Lady, near Chandernagore.
AH! luckless Wight, how could you dare,
An act than Phaetons more bold?
Your Eyes, with such a beauteous fair
Nor Road, nor Horses could behold.
Like Phaeton's of course your lot,
The Man no doubt was set on fire;
Like Phaeton a f—t you got,
And tumbled headlong in the mire.
A.
To Mr. J. A. HICKY.
SIR,
By giving the following a place in your next Paper, you will much oblige, your's &c.
A.
On being desired to write some Verses upon Selima, a Lady's favourite Cat.
THO' your's the prettiest of her kind,
And tho' to please you I'm inclin'd,
Yet pray for once excuse the lay:
When I invoked my modest Muse,
She wished some other theme to choose;
For this alone was fit for Gray.
