The GEORGIA JOURNAL: AND Independent Federal Register. Pub. twice a tw/.] , Vol. I. 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. —wa— r* BOSTON, November 20. -O-t. t!. f [ rencu pr.vateer 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.” K2M n.B 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. “ WHERE LIBERTY DWELLS, THERE IS MY COUNTRY.”— Franklin.
