On Sunday last [September 29] we received advice from Liverpool, in this Province, that some American privateers had taken in Port Medway, a brig belonging to Captain Hall; a sloop the property of Mr. Richard Cunningham, of this town, and several others; and also a ship (nearly loaded with lumber, spars, &c.) out of which they took the provisions, sails, anchors, cables, &c. cut away all the rigging, and after destroying part of the said ship left her.

A schooner loaded with cattle, roots, &c. was likewise taken out of the harbour of Liverpool, bound to this port; and the following persons, who were passengers, were made prisoners, viz. Capt. Forster, Mr. Hawkins, and Mr. Stevenson.
