The patriot ship Chacabuco and sch.
San Martin Gate American vessels Clifton

sail in few days on "a cruise. The
former mounts thirty-four guns and
$50 men, and the latter Is guns and $50
men. 1t is said they are TO proceed round
the Cape, but we rather suspect their
cruising ground will be off Cape st. Vim
cent. The San Martin is considered the
fastest sailing vessel out of the U. States.
The brig Savage of 10 guns, Which .arriy-
ed here on the 18th inst. from Baltimore,
is another of the squadron from America,
and as she is nearly loaded with military
stores. it is likely she will proceed TO Val

of commissions for privateers have lately
been issued by the government. and for
