Vol. 1. • LONDON, April 5. The following letter was yesterday re ceived from Falmouth, dated April 1. This morning arrived two more prizes taken by Sir Edward Pelew’s hjuadron. We have now nine prizes in our harbour, and fevcral more are car ried into other ports. This afternoon a prize was brought in from the fame squadron. The prize matter, an officer of the Revolutionaire, credibly informed me, that Sir Edward’s squad ron had fallen in with a frcfh convoy in the Bay, 75 of which were taken ; they are expected here very soon, and the Re volutionaire with them, as she was obli ged to part with so many hands toward.’ manning and conducting the said prizes, that she had orders to make the belt o; her way to England.” The death of the nabob of the Car natic is thus stated in the Madras Cour ier, of the 14th of October lalt : “ Yesterday morning, at e ; ght o’clock, departed this life, his highness the na bob Wallajah, nabob of the Carnatic. At eleven o’clock, the fort and his ma jesty’s ships in the roads began to fire minute guns, and continued to the num ber of years his highness had completed which was 78. At 12 o’clock, the body was removed from the place, at Chepauk, under a canopy of ilate, to the place of interment, the Grand Mosque, at Treplicane. His highness, had ever been regarded and etteemed as the firm and fmcere ally of the Britifli nation. His highness will be succeeded on the Mufnud by his illustrious eldell son, his higlir.efs the nabob Ulndut Li Omorah.” PARIS, April 2.
