On Thursday evening arrived here from Oronooko, where she had been with a flag of truce, the sloop Hornet, Capt. T. Hunt, bringing Doctor Bowill and Lady, who were taken prisoners about eleven months ago, in a neutral vessel, and carried to that inhospitable country. Doctor Bowill was confined aboard a vessel the principal part of the time, without the least allowance, till the 29th of last month, when, being then considered a prisoner of war, the liberal sum of a bit and a half a day was offered him, but refused. The deplorable situation must have been doubly distressing, of course, to his lady, who, we are sorry to say, is in a very weak state in consequence. Capt. Hunt laid 35 days there before he could obtain the object of his mission. He will sail for Barbados this evening for further orders.

We have been favoured with the following extract of a letter from Captain Thompson, of the Jane (one of the fleet which sailed from this river on the 25th April), to Jonas Fileen, Esq. dated Tortola, May 10, 1806.
Dear Sir - I have the pleasure to inform you, that we, with all the Trade from the Colonies of Surinam, Berbice, and Demerary, arrived here yesterday, under convoy of his Majesty's frigates Amelia, Princess Charlotte, and Unicorn. The two former will proceed with us to England, and will sail hence to-morrow morning; the latter is to accompany us to the latitude of 30, as we are informed that four French frigates are cruising off Bermuda with the intent of intercepting our convoy. I wish we may fall in with them, and, no doubt, our ships of war will give a good account of them. A small privateer was captured by our Commodore on our way down here which is the only thing that has occurred on our passage worth notice. The Jane still supports here character in sailing, notwithstanding her bottom is so foul, she is the fastest sailing ship in the fleet, which gives great satisfaction to my passengers, who are all very well, and, I think I may add, perfectly happy. I suppose we shall have, in addition to the three frigates, a twenty gun ship to go through with us. The brig Hinde, Barret, is here, and will sail with our convoy. Capt. Barret, I am informed is alarmingly ill.
