On the 30th of May, the Liverpool man of war took a Spanish snow, with 12,800 dollars, and some rum and molasses on board. She was taken off Delaware. The master said he had sprung his mast by stress of weather, was going to Philadelphia for a new one, and then to proceed on his voyage to Dominique to buy slaves. Seven French vessels sailed out of Delaware river on the 7th of May.
