NASSAU (N. P.), December 3. .
Accounts which may be relied on,
are received here from New \ork,
that the Ambuscade, and three smaller
French Ihips of war, were to fail from
that port on Sunday the 24th of last
month, and that they were destined
to cruise ofF the toast of South Carolina
and Georgia, and among these islands.
A letter from Turk’s Ifiand, dated
the 26111 of last month, mentions the
, arrival of a velfel from St. Vincent’s,
in ter. days, which brought intelligence
of the fleet with troops being arrived
at Barbadoes.
We are informed, that a very va
luable prize was taken .by the Hermi
one frigate, about three weeks since.
She was an American vefiel, called
the Riling Sun,, mounted 8 iron and
12 wooden guns, was bound from
Port-au-Prince for America, and had
on board property, in Ipecie, plate,
and goods, to the amount of two mil
lions of dollars, plundered from the
unfortunate inhabitants, by the exc
el able commillioaers.

I brig Cornelia, captain Ainiott, of-16
guns, arrived herefrom a cruise. It
is laid she has not sent any prizes into
port. The Cornelia was one of the
squadron which failed with admiral
Sercey, from New-York, and was
formerly the Little Democrat.
. We are informed, that shoes to the
value of 7000 dollars have been ex
ported from one lioufe in this town,
within a fortnight. The manufacture
of this article for exportation was
scarce known five years ago.
NEW-VORK, December 9.
Extract of a letter from Cadiz, Sept. 18.
<l According to a late treaty of al
liance entered into between this court
and that of England, often five and cie
fenlive, they mutually agree to do ail
in their power to prevent all neutral
vefiels from carrying to France, grain,
flour, fait provisions, ammunition, or
any warlike ffores, cr to the French
islands. They will not even be al
lowed to carry the produce of the Did
colonies to France, and those vefiels
that may have carvees and bound to
France, will, if met with by any of
the maritime powers at war, be de
tained, and the cargoes confifcated.”

PHILADELPHIA, December 5.
Isy tli£ (hip Diana, Cane, in sixty
days from Cadiz, we are informed,
that two American vefiels belonging
to Boston and Portsmouth (N. H.),
freighted by mr. Fenwick, the Ame
rican consul, with a cargo, bound
from Bourdeaux to St. Ihotnass,
were captured by a Spanish frigate of
30 guns, and carried into Cadiz. Ihe
Spaniards had the American captains
and.crews priloners on board the fri
gate, arid would not permit any Ame
rican to fee them.
We hear from Baltimore, that a
British frigate has arrived at Norfolk,
and that fix other frigates and a 56
gun ship, .all British, are on die coait.
