SIR Cloudsley Shovell, with seven Men of War, two Yatchs, two Sloops and a Ketch, came to Dublin last Thursday Evening, he sent most part of them to the Southward to Cruise on the Irish Coast, and entred the Bay with four Men of War, and the Monmouth Yatch of eleven Guns, in which Sir Cloudsley himself Fought, his own Ships being so big, could not come up. All the small Irish Ships stranded themselves under the Shelter of some Cannon at Rings-end. Captain Bennet's Frigat of eighteen Guns, One hundred and fifty Tun, cut her Cables, and was stranded in Salmon Pool, where he maintained a Fight an hour and an half with the Monmouth Yatch, till Bonnet had lost seventeen of his Men, and three so wounded that they after died; and then he went off in a Boat with what Men he had left, and carried two Bags of Mony with him. There [Page] was found in the Ship an English-man, a Spaniard, and a late Convert who was mortally wounded. He was asked, What Religion he died of and he answered, That he co [...]d not tell. It seems the Gunner of Bennet's Ship wa [...] an E [...]g­lish-man, and refused to fight against the English, for which he was shot through the Body. The Ship was laden with Hides, Tallow, and Wooll, and was designed for France within two days. During the Fight King James, and many People came upon the Strand, among whom, after the Ship was taken, Sir Cloudsly bestowed some Shot, which suddenly disperst them. After this Sir Cloudsley went in his Long-boat expecting to take in some Protestants, but only two Boys, a­bout seventeen years of Age, pretending to gather Cockles, took that opportunity of making their Escape, who were taken on Board, and brought off. There came also two Troopers towards the Boat, who were taken to be Friends, but one of them fired his Pistol to the Boat without harm, (the other ran away) upon which Sir Cloudsley himself shot his Horse dead, and wounded him; the Troopes escaped, leaving his Boots, Saddle, &c. behind him, which our Sea­men went ashore for, and got. We had only one Man wounded in this Action. The Frigat is at Belfast with Sir Cloudsley; but the Monmouth Yatch came last Monday Night to High-Lake with this Account. One of the Men that was taken in the Ship, says, The Duke of Berwick swears he will never head the Irish more, they being such Cowards And the Irish, to be even with him, tell him, Though he lost the Bat­tle at Cavan, yet he won the Race, coming first to Dublin without his Wigg. Last Night twelve Companies of Nassau's Regiment came here; and the Night before came in above forty Wagons designed for Ireland. We have Advice from Belfast that forty great Ships from Bristol, with four Regi­ments, and great store of Provisions, arrived there on Good Friday.
