By the Martha Brae, TuOstas, arrived at Brif-
tol, from Jamaica, we have received a piece of in-
formation of a nature which molt people will be
inclined to think extremely curious. Who for a
tingle moment ever entertained an idea that the
American Indians would one day (hew themfelves
on the proud ocean as a maritime power Yet fuck
is now the fat. It is true, indeed, the beginning
is but (mall :—the towering oak, however, was
once an acorn; and it is not impoffible that in
future ages the hittorian may produce the fol•
lowing fat as the fire inftance of the naval exer-
tions of one of the great& maritime powers upon
earth :

On the 21ft of June, Cape Antonio bearing
S. by W. e' cant about 28 leagues, the Martha
Brae (poke an armed fchooner, under Spanifh co-
lours, the. Captain of which (poke good Englifh,
and afited her people if they knew of the difturb-
ance between the Indian General Bowtzs and the
Spaniards : he then hauled down the Spanifh co-
lours, and hoifted a red pendant, with an Indian
enfign, and (aid he had a commißion from Ge-
neral Bowtts to cruize againft the Spaniards ;
that Ix had taken one fhip, and got her fate into
port. He then made fail, and ftood for Cape An-

tonio."
