u This moment, the Master.of the Charlotte of Leith,
Tuomas Puttp' ' and seven of his crew, landed here'
in ,his boat, his ship being captured on Sunday night,
about 45 miles right off the Suchan-ness. The Char-
lotte was from Werberg in Sweden, loaded with flax
and potashes, and came from Gottenburgh under
convoy of the Hebe armed ship, which vessel went
to Longhope. The privateer is cutter-rigged, full of
men, and Captain Pniu thinks they made off as for
Bergen in Norway. Captain Pim? and crew had
been in their boat since Sunday night, and this is the
fest land they made."
