Extras! of a Letter from Larne, Ireland, March
Early on Friday morning the zoth infiant,
the (hip Liberty, of Wilmington, W. MILLER,
mailer, from New Orleans, with a very valuable
cargo of tobacco, cotton wool, and logwood, for
Liverpool, came to anchor at the mouth of this
harbour, in a very dangerous fituatjon, near the
rocks at Brown's Bay ; it blew a very heavy gale
from W. S. W. all that forenoon, in the evening it
abated a little over the ebb, and a boat went off
and left two officers on board, both good feamen
and pilots ; all that night it coatinued blowing,
and on the morning of the 2 tfl it inereafed to a
hurricane, and continued all the forenoon ; at two
P. M. the Matter, finding his (hip drifting towards
the rock, was compelled by nccefiity to cut away
the mizen.maft, for the prefervation of the Air
and cargo ; at that inflant the people from the
(hare felt the moll lively compaffion to fee fo many
lives and Co much propertl in danger, when four
ileilful (hip-matters, James Glafgow, Wm. Jefferies,
Jof. Urell, (kipper of the King's barge, and Mor-
res M,Keag, and another, put off in the King's
boat, at the imminent peril of their lives, and by
Gon's mercy got on board, which had they miffed
they mull have gone to fea. Such a reinforce-
ment animated the crew, and changed the Mat-
ter's determination of cutting away the other
malls, and though the fqualls inereafed after the
boat got on board, they Ruck to it, and after cut.
ting away one anchor and weighing the other, the
was got fafe into Port at (even P.M. on the alci,
and by the affiaance of a borrowed anchor, the is
now moored in fafety.”

rather dull. Wheat is again declining in price.
With flour there was very little done.
On the 27th ult. a fleet of about eighteen !hips
belonging to Roflock and Lubeck, failed from
Denmark to England with Corn.
It was much apprehended' on Monday left, at
Plymouth, that a riot, of a very ferious nature,
would take place the next morning, at the town of
Dock ; in confequence of which all the Regular
Troops, .Militia,,and Volunteer Corps, in the
neighbourhood, were under arms at nine o'clock,
and ready to as as occafion might require : but
very fortunately every thing remained peaceable
and quiet, and the Troops were difmilled about
neon. The Butchers at Plymouth have agreed to
fell, on Monday next, beef and mutton at 7d. per
lb. and the bakers, to fell flour at ts. tod. per
quarter ; and to the great mortification of the
flour dealers in this neighbourhood, the bakers
have determined, by an advertifement, not to give
more than three guineas per lack for flour, after
