A LUter frttn an Offietr OH board.ibe Effiex, CsmmeJort Htwt't Ship being a Journal from the Day our Troops landed at Cancalit-Bay, to the Time of their re-embarking. June 5, at Day-break, we weighed and flood along Shore from Cape Frehcl towards Cancalle-Bay, to the Eaftward of St. Malo; a moderate Breeze of Wind off Shore; and fine Weather. At Six we few Cattle grating near the Shore, which Ihewed eithfer a great Negleft in the Enemy, or that they did not us thereabouts. About Eleven o'Clock, the Duke of Marlborough, Commodore Howe, Colonel Watfon, Quarter-mafter-general, and Thierry the Pilot, went in the Grace armtd Cutter to reconnoitre the Landing-place in the Bay.

About Noon two Shot were fired froto a fmall Battery in the Bay at the Cutter: about One the Duke, returned on board. A Regiment of Foot and two Troops of Horfe appeared on the Hills, and retired. The Swallow Sloop landing in Shore, was fired at from two Batteries, but without doing her any Damage. At Two o'Clock we anchored in calle-Bay with die Fleet, and immediately made the Signal for all Ships having fiat-bottomed Boats to hoift them out. As foon as that was done, the Grenadier Companies of eleven Regiments were embarked in them, and rendezvou- fed along-fide the Effex.

About Six o'Clock Commodore Howe hoifted his broad Pendant on board the Succefs, of 22 Guns, and went in her, the Wind at N. E. towards the Landing-place at the Village of Cancalle, where was a Battery of two 24 Pounders and one 1 2 Pounder, which began to play on the Succefs foon after Seven, but withont any Return till the Succefs was run a-ground in a moll advantageous Situation for filencing the Bat tery, which they with the Affiftance of the Rofe, Flamborough, and Diligence Sloop (who all Hood towards the Battery till they grounded) did, and cleared the Village near it The Saccefi loft three Men. In the mean Time, the flat- bottomed Boats with the Grenadiers, and the Tranfports, having the three Battalions of Guards on board, flood towards the Shore, under the Command of Lord George Sackville and General Dary and about Eight o'Clock landed, under Cover of the Frigates, on the Beach clofe to the Village, which confifb of about 4.0 Houfes, at the Foot of a deep Hill from the Top of which about one hundred of the Enemy fired once on bur Troops, but without doing any Execution, and immediately ran away on the Appearance of Kingfley'sGrenadiers. 'Till Eleven o'Clock the Boats were employed landing the Troops, when moftof them grounded, and remained aground till Three next Morning.

The Troops remained under Arms on the Beach during the Night, except a few Parties polled on the Top of the Hill. Tuefday the 6th by Noon this Day the whole Infantry, with ten Field-pieces, were landed, and encamped on the Hill near a Windmill, at half a Mile Diilance from that Part of the Village on the Hill. The Horfe Ships were ordered to Jay on Shore to land the Light-Horfe and Artillery Stores, which took up the Remainder of this and all the following Day. Wednesday the 7th, a French Officer who had been reconnoitring, in endeavouring to efcape from a Party of Kingfley's Grenadiers, was by them Ihot, with his Servant, and both Horfes, in the upper Village. About a hundred Prifoners were taken within thefe two Days, moft of them Peafants, but very few Soldiers.

Three Ships and an armed Cutter were fent to cruize before the Port of St. Malo. Part of the Army marched at Daylight towards St. Malo's, and encamped at about the Diftance of fix Miles from Cancalle. About Ten a fecond Part marched and encamped at about two Miles from Cancalle, leaving in their old Camp three Regiments, one of which (the Welch Fuiileers) was to follow with Part of the Train of Artillery.

About Eleven at Night we faw from our Ships a great Fire at a Diilance over the Land and the next Morning, Thurfday the 8th, we heard the Report of Guns from Daybreak till Five o'Clock and in the Afternoon the Reports of fome Guns were heard. We learnt this Afternoon that the Fire we faw lad Night was at St. Servan, tinder the Cannen of St. Malo's, where about 70 Sail of Ships, we prefume, of the Small feveral them Privateers, and all their Storehoufes, were burnt by Part of the Light-horfe, fupported by a Brigade of Foot. The Guns we heard were fired from St.

Malo's on different Parties of our Troops who were reconnoitring; but during the Night, whilft, the Troops were fetting fire to the Ships and Storehoufes, not a fingle Shot was fired from the Town, aitho' our Men were frequently within almoft Piflol-fliot. It is probable they were afraid the Army would have fet fire to the whole Town of St. Servan (which is large) had they fired on them. Friday the 9th, we failed with the Portland, Succefs, two Sloops, three Bomb-ketches, one Firefhip, and all the Ordnance Ships, towards St. Malo's.

About Three in the Afternoon, it being calm, and the Wind againft us, we were obliged to anchor about three Leagues from Point Roteauneuf. Soon after the Commodore went in the Barge, with two flat bottomed Boats loaded with Bread for the Army (who were in great Want) to the Fort called Roteauneuf, mounting nine very heavy Guns, which our Troops had taken Poffeffion of that Morning without any Lcfs; and returned at Midnight. The next Morning, Saturday the loth, we returned with the Portland, Artillery Ships, Ice. to Cancalle-Bay the Army, after fummoning St. Malo to furrender, being obliged to retire to Cancalle, on Intelligence of a much Force marching againil them, and the Town too ftrong to be taken without heavy Cannon or Mortars; rJfeGarrifcn having been reinforced at one Time fince our Arrival with three Regiments, and at another with 500 Men.

Nor could our Army prevent further Succours from being thrown in, as the Town Hands on a Peninfula, and they only Matters of that Part of the Ifthmus without the Walls. Sunday the 1 ith, all the Light-horfe, Artillery Horfes, Baggage, were embarked in the Traafports. And, on Monday the 12th, all the Infantry embarked none of the Enemy ever appearing to mole ft them ia their Retreat." It is faid, that Orders are fent to the Weft-Indies, to feize all French Property that Ihall be found in Dutch Bottoms. It is faid the French have broke down the fine Bridge of Morlaix on the high Road to Breft, thinking our Troops intended to pafs that Way. Yefterday the new Cloathing was delivered for the Ufe of the three Regiments of Foot-Guards againft the Anni- verfary of his Majefty's Acceflion to the Crown.

She was feized at Sea the 16th of March laft, to Windward of Cape Francois, (which fhe left juft before) bound to Statia, by the Revenge Privateer, Capt. Griffiths of this Place. A Gentleman, Paflenger on Board her, informs us, that on the 1 ith of March, while he was at the Cape, four Ships, two Snows, two Brigs, and a Schooner failed out of that Port, fome for Old France, others for Cape Breton That foon after they failed, being attacked by Capt. Seymour, in the King of Pruffia Privateer of New- York, and Capt. Sample in another Privateer from ton, the Commodore of the French Fleet thought fit to turn Tail, and make the beft of his Way back into Port, natwithftanding that he had with the feveral French Captains folemnly agreed to ftand by one another That the two Privateers foon made a Capture of one of the Enemy's Ships, and would of a fecond but the Captain, rather than fubmit after a folemn Engagement, hoifted his Colours, and firing one Gun, fet Fire to his Powder- Room, and with one Blaft canted himfelf and Crew (upwards of Seventy) into the Air, whilft the Veflel and Cargo, valued at half a Million of Livres, went the contrary Way, to wit, downwards.
