The naval campaign in Lidia in 1782 and 178'] cost the English squadron under Admiral Hughes, 1, 86G. And the French under de Souffren, 1, 782 killed and wounded, or over one-fourth of the effective strength in each case. The total losses of the English in the big naval battles hardly exceeded 6, 000 men ; those of the I'rench in the same engagements read...ied 10, 000, not counting ])risoners not wounded, whose number may be estimated at 2, 000.
