forces have the goodness to interest themselves from
their..statiou on the sea, with our interior Police, it is
proper to aCcinaint them with the situation of our

as they have had only coin inunication with eight ur ten
banditti of ►he coast, and consequAitly are not able
to ascertain the e,xacitiess of their reports, because

they have ever, since kept at a distance.
