By a letter from Boston, dated Sept. 30, we are informed... Captain [William] Co[a]s, of the Warren privateer, has carried into Newburyport, or Cape Ann, a very rich prize, laden with sugar, rum, cotton, plate and money.l

We hear a large prize ship from Jamaica, taken by the General Montgomery privateer of this port, is ashore on the Cross Ledge, in our Bay; but it is expected she will be got off, by taking out part of the cargoe.²

By a vessel from Cape Francois we learn, that a French 50 gun ship was cruizing off that place to protect the trade; that two prizes had been carried in there and sold by Captain Monro [James Munro], of Rhode-Island;³ and that they will not suffer the English men of war to go in there for water.
