CHARLES! ON, July 4,
Arrived yesterday the brig
Swallow, Capt. Hart, in 17
days from St. Thomas. Capt.
H. informs, that an American
lc Sooner arrived at St. Thomas
two days before he failed, the
mailer of which Hated, that on
the 10th Junff,jjn lac. 19. N.
long. 62 \V. he fell in with 22
fad of trie line, (landing to the
eallward. They frit wed no col
lours, but he was convinced
they were the combined French
and Spanilh fleets, and from the
course they were (landing, sup
posed them on their return to
Europe.
Captain Hart further dates,
that he conversed with an Ame
rican captain from Barbadoes,
who informed that Admiral
Nelibh had touched cfF that
place; that he saw the Admiral
come on shore, where he re
mained but a ihort time, and he
Jailed again in pursuit of the
French fleet.—-Admiral Nelson
had 17 fail of the line when he
left Barbadoes.

Extract of a letter from Santo
Domingo , dated loth June,
tc We are informed that the
fleet at Martinico is composed
of 21 fall, Bof which are of
Kj J
the line j they are waiting for a
reinforcement of 17 fail, 4
I ’tch, 5 Spanifli and 8 French,
v uch were to depart from Eu
rope m the month of May. It
is said Admiral Gravina, who
commands in chief, has orders
not to open his last orders until
after the arrival of this lull fleet.
“ Gravina and Laurifton, the,
generals commanding tne land
forces, cornpoled ct 12,000
men, had fcveral private con
ferences with the Emneror,
and it is generally supposed they
alone are entrusted with the Se
cret of the expedition, which
it is the general opinion is m
tended agamd Jamaica.
“ By official di(patches from
l ag,nra, we are informed that
.Admiral Gravina had dilpatched
the (loop of war Philipina, to
order a million of rations to be
kept readv in the norts of La
k J *
guira, and others on the main.”
BALTIMORE, June 19.
By late London news, recei
ved by this day’s mail, it would
appear that the failing and def
tmation of the Cadiz fLe: was
known at London on the 2d of
May.—John Bull sterned to be
stirring himfelfa: last in earned,
6c whilst (baking off the vermin
that were fucking his blood,
determined, even cho’ he ffiould
beset upon his haunches, to
give work to the maftiffs that
lurround him. Another formi
dable expedition was about ta
king its departure from fome
point, in Europe, and another
with 8000 troops, for the Wed
Indies. Much bloody work is
evidently cut our, to be finilhed
this season. The Bred fleet of
22 fail of the line was ready for
sea, and had made two attempts
to get out.
Philadelphia, June 19.
Two bomb ketches, are Ac
ting out at Charieffon (MaiT.)
under the direction cf commodore
Preble —They are nearly ready
for sea, and will fail, (it is said)
in a few days, Hr the Mediter
ranean* under the command of
Lieutenants Lewis and M'Neill.
“BOSTON, June 19.
Capt. M‘Cully, from Amfter
darn, arrived on Tuesday, was
boarded on the loth of May, in
the English Channel, by a Bri
tiffi armed vessel, and informed,
that the French and Spanish fleet
had captured 7 English fail of
the line.—On the Bih June,
Ist. 42 19, long, 60 10, (poke
brig Eunice, Dyer, from Mala
ga, for Bolton, who informed,
that it was reported at Gibraltar,
and generally believed, that the
French and Spanifli fleet From
Cadiz had fallen in with and
captured, several Englifh’ vef
fds.
Whilst our Sea Coast is fur
nifhing uncommon examples of
attention to the making of Salt,
especially on Cape Cod, and
whilst Mr. Briggs of Chatham,
has difeovered much ingenuity
in furmfning the Glauber and
Epsom salts, and in inftrudling
his Neighbours, we are happy to
karn that the interior is very a
bundantly furnifhed with means
to profit from, their natural
riches. At the Canandaigua fait
springs has been made in 1803,
about 90 thousand bushels of fair,
but in 1804 it had amounted to
138 thousand.

Messrs. Printers,
.1 OBSERVE a publication
of Mr. H. G. Walker's in your
Paper of the 6th inst. where I
am accufed.of frauds in obtain
ing from him a Note for Four
Hundred and twenty-three dol
lars—l am concerned, net that
I think it will injure my reputa
tion where lam known;, but for
the evil spirit and the design
which the publication difeovers.
That the Public may determine
propei ly between us, I have
thought it my duty to give the
following statement: , . ,
On the 12th December last,
I fold the Negroes ofS. Elling
ton's Estate; after the Lie of
them, I offered at Public Auc
tion a Negro Man, and dated
that he had ran-away, for which
he was fold. This, I have no
doubt, is remembered by a
number of gentlemen that were
then prefer.:. Mr. Waiker be
came the pur chafer—and be
cause the Negro left him as he
had done me, he cells the pub
lic I am guilty of fraud.
