It is galling to the surly old Admiral, who, it seems, growls like a cur dog, that our people should burn one of his cutters under his nose, and take All the STOCK off the Islands, and bum the houses, barns, &c. on Noddle's island, in which affair they lost a great many men. Mr. ---- whose integrity, you know, may be relied upon, was in Boston at the time the dead were landed, and says they were obliged to dig a hole twenty five feet square to bury them in.
