her appearance again, find have seen her burn
two brigs and a ship close in with the land, and
it is said she took another ship and sent her for
America; the brigs were destroyed on the 6th
inst. and the ship the following day. A few nights
ago, the same privateer male an attack on the I
vessels in the Road at :Montserrat, but was beat I
off by them and the fort. Last night she took .a
sloop and burnt her, and the night after she made
the attack at Montserrat, she took a ship to wind-
