Northumberland, The fame day, at the Weftinoreland, Thursday Auguft 23, at Lancashire, Saturday Auguft 25, at the Extract of a Letter, from Rear-admiral Rodney to Mr. Clevland, dated on Board his Majefty's Ship the Achilles, off Havre de Grace, the 6th of July, 1759 From the LONDON GAZETTE. HIS Majefty's fhips and bombs, under my command, failed from St. Helen's in the morning of the 2d inftant, and, with a favourable wind and moderate weather, anchored the following day in the great road of Havre; where having made a dif B b b pofition pofition to put their Lordships orders in execution, the bombs proceeded to place themfelves in the narrow channel of the river leading to Harfleur, it being the most proper and only place to do execution from. About feyen in the evening two of the bombs were ftationed, as were all the reft early the next morning, and continued to bombard for fifty-two hours without intermiffion, with fuch fuccefs, that the town was feveral times in flames; and their magazine of ftores for the flat-bottomed boats burnt with very great fury, for upwards of fix hours, notwithstanding the continual efforts of several hundred men to extinguish it. Many of the boats were overturned and damaged by the explosion of the shells. During the attack, the enemy's troops appeared very numerous, were continually erecting new batteries, and throwing up intrenchments; their confternation was fo great, that all the inhabitants forfook the town. Notwithstanding this fmart bombardment, I have the pleasure to acquaint you, that the damage done us by the enemy has been very inconfiderable, though great numbers of their fhot and fhells fell and burft among the bombs and boats. OBSERVATIONS upon PULSES. MOST of the variations that happen but flowly, by reason of its weakened elaf in pulfes may be accounted for as follows: ift. If the pulse be quick and ftrong, then both heart and arteries acquire a great Atrength; the heart is ftrong enough to diftend every elastic artery; and this is the pulfe of a fever. 2dly. If it be frong and flow, it is a healthy pulfe; both the heart and arteries are ftrong; but the elafticity of the arteries does not bear the fame proportion to the ftrength of the heart as in a fever. 3dly. If it be quick and low (as the heart grows weaker in proportion than the elafticity of the arteries) then the arteries will have a fmall diftenfion, but a quick return; which is the cafe of perfons worn out in a fever; they have a pulse quick and low, 4thly, If the pulfe be flow and weak, then the heart can diftend a weakened artery but a little, and that can contract again ticity. sthly. If the pulse almost or intirely cease; the confequence must be this, which happens in faintings: The arteries contract without refiftance, throw a great quantity of blood into the veins, and perfons look pale and livid; and hence it is that dying perfons have their faces lead-coloured and wan, which Hippocrates has enumerated among the certain fymptoms of approaching death. Thele and fuch-like remarks, confidered together, with the alteration of the qualities of the blood, upon which the quantity that the left auricle fhall receive, may depend, may prove useful in judging of diftempers by that great criterion of phyficians, the pulfes; and from them we may be directed to discover the feat of diseases; particularly when they are fituated in the folid parts and nerves, and when in the mass of the blood and fluids.
