BALTIMORE, A [arch 4.
Arrived laft evening, capt. Re
gers, of the Jeh'r Nelly, from
Cape Francois, which he left on
the 14 th February. The news
by captain Rogers is waft difir eff
ing, both on account of the Arne
fie an property which has been de-
Jfrcyed at the Cape , and the fcencs
Cj ha lor and bi,ocdihcd which
have and will take place.
It appears that a diviftoii of the
breach fleet, confifling of 14 fail
of the Hue and 11 ether Jhips cf
war, with about 20,000 men,
arrived off the Cape on the yd cf
February ; when negotiations were
entered into by the commanders on
each fide, as to the terms on which
the one party were permitted to
land, and the tenure on which the
other was to hold their liberty and
property. During thefe negccia
tions, gen. Lederc refufed to re
cognize any Juch character as a
governor in the If and , whofe fane- \
Jton it was pretended by the blacks,
was wanting to permit him to
land. This impolitic flep imme
diately roujed the fufpicions of the
negroes, who peremptorily for bad
him to land, and threatened if
Free was ujed, to repel it by force
—to fre the town and murder the
whites. On the evening of the
following day, one cf the fvips
hove in near the floore, and was
fred on by the battery with red
hot foot —which was, at the fame
time, the fgnal for the conjiagra-
Fion of the town. Fire and fag
gots lighted up the fames in many
parts at the fame time, and the
place, during the nifot, exhibited
a feene cf horror and deft million
beyond the power cf defription,
and equaled only by the dreadful
fate it experienced in the year 1792.
Many maf acres took place, and
the brutal rage cf the negroes
[pared neither age nor fex, not cf
their own color, except Americans,
one only of whom (a young man
from Charlcfton) was killed. With
one hand the black demons cf \
faughter were holding up the '
writhing infant, and hacking ’off
its limbs with the /word in the
ether.
Thefe that (Raped the fword
were preferved ti wltnfs more
horrid fenfat ions being dragged by
the negroes (who evacuated the
town during the fire, and after
the demolijhing of the forts) to
their f nong places in the)noun
tains,' to ferve as loft ages, or to -
glut their fury.
On the morning cf the sth, cf \
2Coo houfes, 59 only cfcapcd the
ravages cf the flames, and their
tenants ; except a wretched few
' cn board the American fs‘p[ big,
•were no where to hefecn. Sugars
and other property either roiled in
*bquid frj cl or 7 the fare As* cr i
r* w 14 • 9
mounted n cloudy volumes to ti e
Jnies. All the plantations cf the
extenfive and once Jlcurijhing plain
ai ctiud the Cape for many miles,
( exhibited the fame tremendas ap
pearance. Port de Peix was alfo
• confirmed, and every town in the I
If and except fort Dauphin it was
expelled, would fare thefame fate j
with the Cape. Fort Dauphin !
bad been preferved, by another di- j
vijicn cf the feet taking poffcff.cn '
of it without molefalion —four
divifions having arrived at differ
ent points (f the If and about the
fame time. Befdes the two men
tioned, one had gene into the bite
cf Leoganer.
After the total evacuation cf
the Cape by the blacks, the French
flipping hauled into the harbor
j and took pcffejfion cf the town and
! forts, Capt. Regers was per
' nutted by the intend ant to fail, cn
; the lAh with dif patches, wc
i learn ; —hut ail other rimer lean
vcffels were ft id detained.
It was not known where Tcuf-
Jaint was during the conflagration,
but he was Juppcjed to have bten j
at the Cape incog directing the •
hand cf deflrubtkn, fie is new ;
at the head of the army in the 5
mountains, in a place ft r eng by na- 1
tiire, and which he bad for feme j
time been fortifying and rend'rung
impregnable, by art —To this fir eng
pej'i be has retired with his trea
fury and rnermydens: and from it
will make bis murderous excwfi
cus and her rajs his a [failants. Ri
gaud, his eld and implacable rival
was with his enemies, and much
was expelled from bis knowledge
\ cf the If and and his influence with
j the inhabitants of the fouth.
It was reported at Cape Fran
| cois that the feet defined for Gau
-1 daloupe had arrived, and that the
fame tragic fco.cs had cccured .
there. j
