We have delayed this Gazette, in the expectation of official information from St. Lucie to this island, but none having as yet been forwarded, we avail our iclves of the intelligence obligingly communicated to us by a mold refpeCta b!e friend, jull arrived from the head* quarters. The surrender of that island took place at the time, we have already Ha ted, hut the garrison obtained terms, permitting them to march out with all the honours of war, and lay down their arms on the Glacis. They were, in number, upwards of 2 000 men of all deferiptions, of which, there were near 400 whites; these are all embarked on board of prison (hips in the Carenage, and are to remain until a Convoy fails, which is fixed, for the ift of August next. > Previous to the surrender, and pro bably, whilst the terms of capitulation were negociating, about 700 deferrers from the late English garrison, being j'oldiers, emigrants or colored people, formerly in our service, got out of the French works, and reached the woods in the Souffriere quarter, and having a plenty of arms and fome ammunition, - may give fome trouble before subdued. Another body of 400 men, allb eicap ed into the woods, between that fortrefs ‘and our lines ; these have been since sur rounded, by the German .Yaghers, who have already shot like game, more than three fourths of them. The rest eannot elude the fame fate. A number of the Cte* de Bouille’s emigrant Corps having defeated from a pod of importance, to the enemy, in the night ; the General, by day break the next morning, re-embarked all the rest ot the corps, to the universal joy of the army. They are to return to England. Some of those, with two British and other deserters, fallen into our hands, “ere hanged together, in full view of the Britilh line. We have loft about 600 men, in kil led, wounded and miffing ; the officers are not yet ascertained- The 31 ft and 2 7th regiments are said to be tiie moft confijerable fufferers : two of our par ties, fuppoted to have been cut off, are found to be in fafety, owing to difagree htiat between those who made them pri fouer?. When our fleet and army ren .youzed at St. Ann’s Lay, Mar tinique, the enemy at St. Lucie obliged , 3: t!le planters in the island, who had bfvve refufed to join them, to come in to Motne Fortune : these have been r \ e ? ,£( f aR d lent to their plantations, voth .heir wives, children and slaves. Ihc French fay they have loft 700 in ! l! ' and 5 many were found in th.eir hof ?‘ts!, wounded and nek. It was owing ta l fteir having expended all their am “J nitl u OD , that they so soon surrendered. . y received no supplies of that and were reduced to the necessity t reaking up the (hells we fired at ’V, for langrifh to return on us: in T thev have supplied their friends in rc ’ ada and St. Vincents, and defended “•'’•l yes with British artillery and T !

NEW-YORK, July 13. With shame we lee the liberality of our lellow citizens in Baltimore and Philadelphia excrcifed in relieving the unhappy fufferers at Charleston. The city ot New-York, perhaps the weal tnieft in the Union, has done nothin:’ - . The brig Thomas, capt. Pratt, from Martinique, arrived here yesterday in 24 days palfage. Capt. Pratt informs, that previous to his departure, arrived a J Gaudaloupe, seven fail of the fine and fix frigates* with troops on board, num bers not afeertained. In addition to the above, we learn, by the mate of capt. Pratt, that, on the 20th of June Marigalante surrendered to the British.

Yesterday I afeeud e4 the Telegraph in this city, two hun dred and ninety-three steps; witkin% few minutes orders were received to in form the citizens of Lille, one hundred and fifty miles from Paris, that all was well, and nothing new ; on which a man gave motion to the machine, and in sev en teen minutes an answer was returned and announced by the said Telegraph; the atmosphere was dull and heavy, or an answer would have been returned in less time.” Capt. Greer, from Turks-Island, was informed by the brig Harriot, from Cape Francois to Baltimore, that a French fleet, consisting of about 20 fail of the line, had arrived at the Cape, and had captured part of the Jamaica out ward bound fleetd SAVANNAH, August 5. We hear that the Yellow Fever has made its way into the city of Charles ton, and commenced its malignancy on the unfortunate citizens ofthat place. W c rear that this will conclude, what has been threatened by the late fire. In confequencc of the above, the Ci ty Council met on Wedncfday last, and blued an Order, obliging all v est ids from Charleston, to perform a ifuaraufme of 15 days at Cockipur. Avery remarkable birth happened a few vvecks ago in the neighbourhood of Danvilie, Kentucky. A young wo man aged 15 years, was delivered of four female children ! The information was received Irom a gentleman who is a near neighbour to the young woman, Lxtrad of a letter received at Newport (R.

Donaklfon and Barlow, to leave this place on the ports being opened, which is expefted hourly. I leave you to judge of what we have undergone in mind since, as we are cer tain ihould this fall through, we shall fee liberty never again—but by exerting themselves, they have got liberty for Mr. Barlow to flay. Mr. Donaldson goes to Leghorn to-day : An Ameri can brig that came here from Marseilles, alio fails to-day for Alicant, with dis patches—they have three months given them to get the money here; if it is not here in that time, we are fold for life.” An account of the quantity of Hour ffiipncd at the port of Philadelphia, for exportation, in the months of April, May & Jane, 1796. — Bbls, of Flour. tills.
