" We h*ve been induced to .subjoin lin this place a concise ac­ count of Lieutenant Shortland, as well because his experience as an oflicer nas been'gi eat, an from the consideration that his journal has been deemed^ by thoio who b'est know its value, df very serious importance. " Lieutenant John Shortland, very early in lite, had a strong predilection for the Navy, and in 175r) at the age of six­ teen, he entered into His Majesty's service on board the Anson, a sixty-four gun sliip^ which went out in the fleet under the com­ mand of Admiral Boscaweu. On the banks of Newfoundland ih's fleet fell in with, and took the Alcide and Ly'x, two French ships of seventy four gnus. On his return from this expedition, iie went on hoard the CuUoden, a seventy-tour gun ship, and was in the fleet under Admiral Byng, ofl'Minorca, Shortly afterwards, he went into the Hampton Court, commanded by Captain Harvey, in which ship he was present at the taking of the Foadroyant and Arpc. On his arrival iu England, he weut on board the Vanguard, Commodore Swantou, to the West Lidies, in the fleet under Admiral flodney, and was present at the i-eduction of * if ASt AWSt PSEflEJTf Ma?tinique, the frPeaades, an([ the other islands vrVitch wefs taeu .saptHred.
