RUN away from the fubferiber, at his ship-yard on Charh f
town Neck, on Sunday the 30th of December, between the
hburs of 8 and 10 at nigh't, two wnito lads apprentices, named Leo
nard Cefiman and Jofeph' Blanch; Coffman is about 19 years of age,
swarthy complexion and blade curl'd hair; Blanch is about 17 or 18
years old, of French extraction, and talks both English and French
exceeding well; they have both wore for some time past green cloth
jackets and trowfers, but as they went off in a small canoe, and car
ried with them most of their cloaths and a quaintity of Trip car
penters tools, they may probably change their dress, though they are
well known. A reward of FIVE POUNDS will be given to who
ever apprehends and brings them home, and TWENTY POUNDS
on conviction of any person harbouring them. All matters of vef-
Ids are, at their peril, forbid carrying them of the province.

The quantity of butcher's meat fold in the Upper Market,

Saturday the brigantine Swallow, Capt. Darrel, ar
-Irivedheru from Bermuda. We have advices by her, of
cruisers from that island, being of late very fuccefsful,
°%cularly the privateer Endymion, who during a short
foie had captured twelve vessels, most of which were fafely
arrived. Two Spanifli vessels, a sloop and polacre, were also
fentin there by his Majeßy's Stop of war Hornet, whose car
oes fold for upwards of twelve thousand pounds sterling.
' Qn'board one of the Spanish prizes a number of letters were
found, which confirm, beyond the possibility of a doubt,
the accounts we have ^ frequently had, of a re • It in the Spa
^ colonies.— We have been favoured with the following li
teral translations of extracts from two of the letters.
Extrafi of a letter fro viCaracas, September 1781.
« The accounts from this continent are not at all agreeable.
« All this part of America is in arms—The kingdom of Saint
ri soy, Peru, Lima, all those countries are in rebellion—lt is said,
« that in Peru they have crowned a defeendant of one of their
" ancient Incas', called Don Gabriel Tapa Mataru. —The infur
« rents of St. Foy are at present upon the frontiers of this Pro
ci vince, where they have mhde themselves masters of some
« small towns. —I do not yet know what is to become of this
« unhappy country, where the inhabitants Are highly difeon
" tented on account of the heavy imposition and duties with
“ which they arc over-loaded-Pamphlets and pafquinades are
< Ito be fecn at every corner of the Preets."
Another letter of the 15th September, fays, " If I could
« describe to you the fid,condition of this unhappy Province,
« it would take me eight days, and even then, the description
« would hardly'be entitled to your belief."
On Saturday the drip Pallas, Capt. Ciciland, failed for Lon
to—ln her went passengers, Lady Leigh and her family ;
Mr. William Clark, Mr. George Lockhart, and Mr. Peter
Ballantyne.
halt Sunday, Major Coffin, with a detachment of cavalry,
composed of different corps, came up with a party of Tree's
cavalry near. Garden's plantation, whom he immediately
charged and put to the rout.—The rebels loft seven men irl
cd, or badly wounded, and eight taken prisoner
the latter is Captain Armftrqng, who commanded the party,
and Richard Ellis, who formerly kept the Quarter-House.
We learn from the Back Country, that when Major Cun
ningham was upon his return from his late expedition to Nine
ty-fix, he was followed as far as the Ridge, by General Pickens
with his brigade ; which afforded Col. Hezekiah Williams of
the Royal Militia, an opportunity to make an incurfon into
Ninety-fix diftrift. He penetrated as far as "Whitehall, where
he destroyed some works which the Rebels had been some time
empioyedin conftru&ing, burnt seven waggons, and killed and
made prisoners of the whole garrifoo, confining 'of about thir
ty men.
Charlestown, January 2.
