By a Person just arrived from the northern Parts of this Province, we are informed, that the two Frigates of 24 Guns each, long since ordered by the Congress to be built at Poughkeepsie, are launched and rigged, but not manned.1
The Ship Lord North, Capt. Ross, arrived here Yesterday from Antigua, and brought in with him a Brig from St. Martin's, bound to Philadelphia, with Salt and Dry Goods.
