my Litt was the Oreiles, which came out with the
Pylades. The prifoners from the above privateers
amounting to 67, were landed here and marched to
Norwich, under an efcort of the Firefbire Militia
on their route to Stilton Barracks. The above pri-
vateers were captured off Flamborough Head.

AWOTHER LITTER, SAME DATE.

Yefierday arrived here his Majetly's brig Mos-
curar o, of 18 guns, Captain SAMUEL Jecrsos, with
two Privateers under French colours, and an Engli(la
fmuggler, captured lafl Sunday night or Monday
morning. The Mos°afar° being off Flambro' head
about half pall fiz in the evening, faw three orange
fail to leeward, apparently cutters ; made all fail in
chace, and obferved one of them to fire 2 guns and
hoifl his colours, but could not make them out—
Ihortly after two of them kept away free and made
all fail away, the third hauled her wind clofe, and
made fhort tacks to windward ; (leered for her, and
about eight o'clock brought her to, when the proved
to be the Elizabeth from Guernfey, with fpirits--faid
the others were two French privateers, that had fired
at him to bring him to ; Captain JACKSON doubting
what fhe Paid, and thinking it a fineffe to get clear,
took poffraion of her, and made all fail after the others,
which being favoured by the night, be 101 l fight of
them for near an hour,but pall it p. m. brought
one of the veffels to (the other having kept a differ-
ent dirdlion), when fhe proved to be a Dutch fchuyt,
with French colours, carrying one twenty-four pound
gun, fiz fwivels, befides (mall arms, with thirty-three
men on board ; could get no information what the
other veffel was, but thinking her fufpicious (after
taking out the prifoners of the one captured), made
all fail again after her, being by this time out of
fight ; but a little after day break, faw her on the
weather bow, and at half pall four brought her to,
when fhe alfo proved another Dutch fchuyt, under
French colours, of the fame force, and contort of the
fiat, out eighteen days ftom Amfierdam. They
were both on their firlt cruize, and had not taken any •
thing.
Great praife is due to Captain Jacxsos, his offi-
cers, and (hip's company, for their vigilance, and the
alacrity with which they took polliffion of, and re-
moved the prifoners from, the different veffels as they
came up with them, having captured in the fhort
(pace of twelve hours (from the firft time they faw
them) three veffels all fleeting different courfes, two
of which might have done great injury to the mer-
chant flipping, being of that clafs of veffels that could
not be fofpetted to be privateers, as they are of ez-
ailly the fame defcription of thofe that ate employed
under neutral cactus, filling on the Dogger Bank.
Froethe above circumllance it is to be hoped that
merchant veffels will be
cautious, and not permit
fchuyt or doggers to approach trio neai
