5 L N 4 1. ! PHILADELPHIA, June 21. . 'Tuefday &t arrived here Captain Baker, in 2 fhort Paffage from Cadiz, who advifes, that there is not the leaft Appearance of the Spaniards joining in the Warwith France ; and that before he failed, a Privateer of St. Maloes, of 26 Guns, had taken and brought in there Captain Lee, in a Privateer be- Jonging to London. A letter from Gothen mentions an Indian being killed in Countraét’s Field,and found by-fome of our People, after having been dragged above a Mile from the Place by the other Indians. " Sinceour laft a Snow under the Pretence of a Flag of Truce, was coming up here from Hifpaniola ; but it being fufpected that the Frenchman was ra- ther come for fome our of Flour, &c. than from any Liking to bring us what Englith Prifoners might be amongft them, and the Privateer Spry, Captain Spring, being then at New Caftle, Orders were fent him o feize the Veflel, which he accordingly did, and found a Quantity of Sugar on board. His barge met with a River Schooner coming from this Jaweet Flag of Truce Man, with 21 Hogfheads of his Sugar, which was alfo taken Proper Care of. The Snow and Schooner are fince come up toTown. A few Seizures of this Kind, it is 2o be boped, will Sop thefe Gentlemen from attempting to come up the Ri- wer Delaware for the future. From St. Chriftophers we have Advice, that the Blakeney Privateer, Captain Minfhal, of Barbadoes, has taken a large Privateer Sloop, belonging to Mar- tineco, which fought him three Glafles, had two of- ficers killed, and four Men wounded. Capt. Min- fhall loft one of his Lieutenants, and another Man, in the Engagement. We bave Advice from Shamokin, that about a Month ago a Dutchman was killed and fcalped by fome Iadians near Hunter’s Fort ; and that they ufed old Jagrea, the Indian, in fo cruela Manner, at the fame time, that he died foon after, This was fup- pofed to be done by fome Indians going home from Philadelphia as Friends. Jagrea was always found to be a true Friend to the Englith. From Conecheague we hear,that one Jofeph Gal- liday was killed and fcalped there about fiee Weeks ago, his Wife and an Orphan Child carriéd off, and his Houfe burnt : That Jofeph 8rown was fhot at and wounded by Indians the fame Day, buat being on Horfeback got off : That they are daily feen in -Marih-Creek : And that Captain David Dinwiddie, of that Place, was fired on very lately by fome of them, when he returned the Fire, and wounded one, whom he tracked for abouta Mile by his Blood. Laft Night Captain Smith arrived here in a Let- ter-of Marque Ship from Liverpool : On his Pal- fage, in Company with the Tartar of New York, he took a large French Dutch man, with Five Hun- dred and Fifty Hogfheads of Sugar on board, and fent him to New- York. 4 Extra& 8fa Letter from Gardner’s Fort, near thz Drowned Lands, in New York Government, dated the 14th Inftant. : “The Day bifore Yeflerdoy dbrakam Courtraft’s Houfe was furvounded by a Party of Indians, and ano- thir Party attacked the People in the Field at awork, wvhen they killed a Man anda Girl 5 the veft provi- dentially efcaping.

It is thought there were about 30 Indians at Wefifall's, and 20 at Courtrait's. A Party of Men went in purfuit of them, and this Morning 60 Guns were heard to go off, but the Confequences nat knowin 5 bowever, as our Party awas but weak, it is feared it went hard with them. N'E W.- Y O R K, Fune 26. Tuefday laft a large French Ship from Bayone bound for Cape Francois, was feot in here by the Privateers Colonel ‘Prevooft, General Johnfon, and Ear! of Loudoan, all of this Port: She is loaded with Provifions and dry Goods. Capt. Caldwall, of the Colonel Prevooft, befides being concerned in the above Ship, has taken a Guineyman, without any Papers, man’d with French and Spaniards, having 430 Slaves on board, and fent her to Antigua, befides an empty French Snow, a Dutch Schooner from the Cape for Statia, and a fmall French Sloop, fince retaken, Wednefday laft, the Privateer Brig Hope, Captain McDaniel of this Port, rétarned here from a Cruize : On the15th of May he was chafed by alarge French Ship, which he imagined was a Frigate, but happily got clear of her. The Ship then ftood after a Brig that was to Leeward, came up with, and after firing a few Shot the Brig ftruck, and they both made Sail together. The 1oth.of May Captain McDaniel fpoke with the Privateer Sloop Deborah, Capt. Roberts of Pro- vidence, who informed him, That ten French Mer- chantmen;, and three Frigates were chafed into the Cape on the 14th by three Englith Men of War ; A s S i e and that the Frigates retarned the next Day with 6 Ships under their Convoy. - = - Wednefday alfo Capt. Cook arrived here from St. Chriftophers : He failed from thence the 6th Inftant in Company with about 1go Sail (zo of which were bound to the Northward) underConvoy of two Ships of 60 Guns, and one of 40, but parted from the Fleet in Lat. zo two Days after he came out all well. Thur{day 2 Snow with Highlanders came in from Se. Kitts alfo, being Part of Colonel Frafier’s Bat- talion, who were obliged to proceed for the Weft- Indies, having a leaky Veflel, not being able to reach this Port. Saturday laft was fent in here by the Privateer Ship Duke of Cumberland of this Port, ‘and two Rhode-Ifland Privateers, the Ship Dageraed, Peter Langerboom, Mafter : She loaded at Dunkirk, clear- ed at He!voetfluys for Coracoa and Statia, but was taken within three Leagues of Cape- Francois. On the 17th of May Captain Lufh in the Ship Duke of Cumberland, had a {mart Engagement with a large French Ship of 26 Guns and 150 Men, but was obliged to leave her with the Lofs of his Boat- {wain, and 2 Negro killed, befides five others blown up, as a French 74 Gun Ship was coming down upon him. Extralt of a Letter from Capt. Walter Chaloner, of the Brig Difianceof Rbode Ijland, to the Owners in that Place. “ On the 10th of May I fell in with a Fleet of French Merchantmen, under Convoy of a 74 Gun Ship and two Frigates, one of 36 and the other of 22 Guns. At the fame Time his Majefty’s Ships the Edinburgh of 64 Guns, 2ud the Affittance of 50, were in Sight, who I expeted would attack the French Men of War ; but to my great Surprize they did not come within Gun fhot all Day. At Night I fent my Barge into Monto Chrifto, to acquaint the Privateers who were lying at that Place therewith : I was foon joined by Capt. Troup of New York, ° and Capt. Potter of Newport, the only Privateers then there, and continued - in fight of the Fleet, in ExpeQation of his Majefty’s Ships attacking the Men of War ; but the Edinburgh kept aftern, and would not come ap : Upon which Capt. Troup hail’d the Afliftance, and told the Captain, if he would attack the 74 Gun Ship, he would lay along fide of one of the Frigates, and nail’d his Colours to the Ma#t, determining either to take her, or perifh in the Attempt ; but the Captain of the Affiftance told him to {land on with the other Privateers, and keep in fight of the Fleet, and he would bear down to the Edinburgh, and with her attack the Man of War : But to our great Mortification, after he had fpoke with the Edinburgh, they both bore away for Jamaica, and permitted the Man of War, the two Frigates, and 9 Merchantmen, to go unmolefted into the Cape. Capt. Dean in a Snow from Maryland, is arrived at Antigua ; two Days before he got in, "he beat off a French Privatcer Sloop of 8 Gunsand 60 Men, altho’ Capt. Dean had but 6 Gunsand 11 Meu ; he was{oon after. informed by People from Guada- loupe, that the Frenchman had almoft 40 of her Haads killed and wouended. ADVERTISEMENTS.
