The subscriber, belonging to the Washington frigate, was last Thursday, between four and five o'clock, A. M. insulted and abused, about half way between the Rainbow and the barracks, by Regulars dressed in blue, who knocked him down and took his firelock and black leather pocket book from him; in the latter there was some money, and a bond for one hundred and one pounds from John Williams, payable upon demand. Whoever informs him where he may see the men that insulted him, shall have Ten Dollars reward, or Five for the gun, and Forty Shillings for the bond.

William Carter, about thirty-six years of age, five feet six or seven inches high, sandy complexion, commonly wore an old blue great coat, red waistcoat, dirty coarse trousers, his hair generally loose, an old flapped hat, and walks very slovenly, but he may change his clothes.
Edward Carter, about thirty years of age, pock marked, red face, about five feet six inches high, pretty well set, dark complexion, his hair sometimes tied, clothes uncertain, as he wears sometimes long and at other times short, but often a brown great coat pretty long.
