morning arrived here, the SHEERNESS
'2 guns, Lieutenant TALBOT; and the
,Eiorrs armed brig, of 12 guns, Lieu-
Ant and brought in with them a very
logger privateer, called the Freed de
of Cherburgh, of 18 guns, and 47
men, commanded by JEAN FRANCOIS FROMENT,
quite new, and on her firft cruize, which they
captured yefterday, about 4 leagues from Lyme,
having then in company with her three Englifh
brigs; one (loop, and one fchooner, which fhe had
taken clofe to the fhore in the courfe of that morn-
ing, and we have the pleafure to fay, that the
whole were re-captured, and, except one, brought
in here this morning : the privateer, the preced-
ing night, about to o'clock, had captured the
FLORA, of Dartmouth, Captain Wm. Cu m :Ho,
bound from Dartmouth to Gucrnfey, laden with
fome fibres, then about three leagues fouth of
that port ; and as the wind was at that time
to the Northward, it is expeded fhe would
reach the French coal] untnolefted : fhe made all
her captures by hailing as the Plymouth lugger,
of Plymouth, and attempted to play off the fame
deception on the SHEERNESS cutter, but the French
Captain was ordered immediately to haul down
his colours, or take the confequences ; as the
Frenchman did not comply, he was faluted with
a broadfide, which finifhed the combat as foots as
it began : not one of the crew of the lugger was
either killed or wounded ; but unfortunately the
Captain of one of the brigs, and a feaman belong-
ing to the Flora, of Dartmouth, were killed in the
cabin by a fatal (hot, that was nearly (pent before
it ftruck them : their bodies were brought in on
board the privateer, and will be interred this day :
the fame privateer might have taken twenty fail
of veffels, had fhe had men enough to navigate
them, but her crew, by the numerous captures,
Were reduced to thirteen in number, which may ac-
count for the French Captain not rifking an aflion.
