CHARLESTOWN, April 20.
Extra's from the South-Carolina Gazette, No.y. Printed
April 10, at Parker's Ferry, by BENJAMIN h. Dcnlap.
" A N authentick account of publick tranfa&ions, mud at
A this time be so truly interesting to the inhabitants of this
State, that the Editor of the South-Carolina Gazette, ishappy
in having it in his power to gratify their wishes. His intention is
to publish a weekly-paper, with which fubferibers may be furnifh
ed at the quarters of his Excellency the Governour, the head
quarters of the army, the Printing-office at Parker's-Ferry,
and at such other places as gentlemen may require; provided
they will depend on casual opportunities for their papers. #
- His terms are one guinea annually, one half to be paid at
the time of fubferibing, and the other half at the expiration
of fix months."
Extras of a letter front Mr. Harrison to the Prefdent of Con
gress, dated Cadiz, 7th January, 1782.
I had the honour of addreding you last on the 6th Nov. The
purport of the present is to inform your Excellency, that the
fleet of his Catholick Majcßy, composed 0641 fllips of the line,
and 16 frigates commanded by M. de Cordova, failed from
hence on the 3d inst. they took under convoy transports with
,4000 troops destined for the Havanna : from what I can learn
they are to cruise in the latitude of Madeira, $0 waitthe junc
tion of Mons. de Guichen, who failed from Brell on the 11th
lilt. With 19 flrips of the line and a convoy, in which are em
barked 15000 troops, also for the islands. The news wchave
inst received of an action between the French Admiral and an
English squadron, under Kempenfelt, may perhaps difeon
cert the project in part, though as yet the iilue is not known:
If however ft be true that our allies were 19 against 13, we may
flatter ourselves that it has been fortunate.
• The reduction of Mahon, or rather of the citadel of St. Phi

thence, it cannot hold out much longer.
