" We had an arrival here yesterday of a fine brig, -p-rize to one
of our privateer,. Her cargo consists of slim, coil,e, and 26,000
dollars in xpecie. Vee have no prospect of leaving thi,i for a
month We are getting recruits daily, and expect in a short
time a reinforcement of men and armed vessels. Do not pay
any attention to :he reports circulated by men discontented be-
Calif! they could not enrich themselves by plundering the inno-
