Last Saturday [January 20] a vessel, filled with our distressed brethren of Boston, put off from that place, and landed her passengers at Chelsea, among whom were Capt. Andrew S[y]mmes, and Capt. John Dean. It is said a considerable number more were soon to follow.
Last Thursday [January 18] one of our cruisers, commanded by Captain [Stephen] Mascoll, carried into Cape Ann a ship of 250 tons. She was from Lynn Haven in England, bound to Boston, and had on board, besides other valuable articles, 1500 blankets, 100 bolts of oznabrigs, 100 casks of oatmeal, a large number of shoes, and a quantity of coal.
