A ship, named the Success, was brought into Hull

the IPoodjUrk's boats puthed tyld,y into the har-
bour, reserving their fpe until nea!ly aiongsiJe of
the prize, when the) nrec{, ands instantly ::carded
her. All :he crew •ot the Success, except one the,;,
leaped overboard, and swim:, to the shore. The
captured vessel was nearly unrtgged, and 1y.11'5,
within pistol-shot of, two batteries, which ,cont-•
menced -a heavy fire upon her, and killed one Bri-
m!. seaman and a marine, and wounded four others,
before they could get her unier weigh. Twenty-
two privateers of diti,reht sizts were at the time

French privateer of 14 guns. Toe privateer he lately
beat off, in the middle of 'the action, hoisted the
Bloody Flag, which was answered by the Marl-

serves promotion.

manfully on the occasion, except two, who skulked
below, 'and -deciin,d to take any part in the ac-

dangers of the engagemi-nt.
The report of the safety of the True Briton India-
man was revived yesterday. A Gentleman, w hoar-
rived as a passenger in.the China feei, writes to. his
friend that he learnt at St. Helena that the Captain
ofthat Indiatilatt.had commit cased to the Gover-
nor at bombay his arrival in distress at Cochin.—•

down the China Sea, when she proceeded to Bom-
bay to be docked, being very leaky and incapable of
receiving a cargo for England. , ",•

A young Gen,leman arrived in town yesterday
front Hrill incl. He escaped in a potatoe.boal,, and
was three days on his passage, He gives a most
melancholy report of :he ondition to which the
people in that devoted country have, been reduced
by their tame submission to the tyrant. The Fiend)
.troops sent in to keep them down, are in a state of
nakedness, and they help themselveS at pleasure to
every thing they want. The people are totally
broken down in spirit, and are quite at the mercy.
of their oppressors, even for food, as the. markets are
entirely under the controul of the soldiery. All the '1
Dutch troops are marched away, and are to be sent
to Span, which is vegarded as the certain grave of
every man who goes thither.

lory to-morrow, at Charing-Cross, how twelve till
