Last Thursday afternoon his Majesty's ship the Gosport,
James Jervis, Esq; Commander, arrived here from St. John, in
Newfoundland, . . . so that 'tis most likely our enemies,
e'er they have occasion to rejoice at their conquest, will
be obliged to sing their Te Deum backwards; whilst we on our
part have only to thank the giver of all victory for our
success.
