has desisted from the purpose he is reported to have de- clared to that Effect.
On the 25th inst. the Dispatch, sent for Halifax the 10th, returned with Letters from Captain Fielding of the 19th.
Captain Fielding on the most laudable motives, ordered away the Centurion and Raisonable from that Station, to strengthen the Squadron here, as soon as he heard of the appearance of the enemy on this coast: The two ships are not yet arrived, but from the last observed position of the French squadron, and Easterly Winds since pre- vailing, I flatter myself they will escape to the Northward of the Enemy, and may daily be expected at the Hook.
The Renown, which had been appointed to conduct the West India Convoy, came in here from Antigua, the same Evening, with the Dispatch.
Eagle, Sandy Hook, July 31, 1778.
No opportunity for sending off the Dispatches you will receive herewith having earlier offered, I am enabled, in addition thereto, to acquaint you, for the Information of the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty, that the Raisonable joined me here the 28th, and the Centurion, with the Cornwall, Yesterday.
Captain Edwards parted Company from the Squadron with Vice Admiral Byron in a sudden and hard Gust of Wind the 3d instant, in Latitude 48.53 and Longitude 31.16.
No Intelligence having been since received of the Vice Admiral, I am preparing to put immediately to sea, with the force collected at this port, in quest of the French squadron, supposed, when last seen on the 28th, to be steering for Rhode Island.
