Kingston jamaica whence they sailed the l7,h inst
1hey bring no news OF any interest except that the
market is overstocked with American produce.
The officers of both vessels bring q report which we
trust is incorrect although it comes from pretty good
authority They report that the British brig Telegraph
from this port, Capt Young arrived Kingston on the
sth instant and reported that on the 9th inst, when of
Cape Antonio, saw rakish looking schooner having all
the appearance of privaeer giving chase to an
can ship and distinctly the schooner FIRE two wind
ward guns at her, Two American vessels were at an.
Choir under the Point and Capt Young believed them 10
be prizes OF the schooner He Immediately hoisted Eng.
hsh coors, and bore away for Kingston.
This report created an intense excitement on shore
and was disbelieved until the log of the Telegraph
examined where the circumstance was found entered
Many persons however believed matter to be hoax
OF Capt Youngs got up for the purpose of lettering
other vessels from this port from going with pro-
duce. ~
There were five American vessels in port when this
report was circulated at Kingston, and they all took in
ballast Immediately, and commenced beating ont 10 the
windward through Crooked Island.
When the Lancaster and Walsh passed Cape Antonio
about III o'clock on the night of the 2ls they could see
nothing Of the priyateer or her prizes.
