He has not only given fuch conflant Attention and Protefiion to every different Branch of our own T'rade here about, as few ever did before him ; but through his Alert- nefs in colle@ing his Force, and his Judgment in dif- polfing thereof, he has entirely broke the Views and Defigns of the Enemy ; has prevented M. de Clue’s Squadron of eight fail from pafling the Streights, to the Surprize of every one who confiders the Badnels of that Station, the Size of his Ships, and this Sea- fon of the Year ; by which he has the Satisfaction of convincing all Europe, that though we have loft Mi- morca, yet we can ever make Gibraltar of fucha Ufe, as fhall oblige our Enemies to take Shelter, either in a neutral Port, or retire to their own, without being able to carry their Schemes into Execution. And if we may judge from the great Number of Couriers that are conftantly pafling through this Place from Old Gibraltar, to the French at Carthagena, with Accounts of the Britilh Fleet, Admiral Ofborn’s great Vigilance and judicious Conda& is no lefs dreaded by the French, than it is admired by the Spaniards thereabeuts.
