Extract of a letter from Lord Viscount Duncan, Admiral of the White, and Commander in Chief of His Majesty's Ships and Vessels in the North Sea, to Evan Nepean, Esq; dated at Tarmouth the 26th Instant.
Arrived here this morning the French Cutter Privateer Perseverant, mounting 14 guns, and 49 men, taken by the Cruizer on the Brown Bank the 23d Instant, belonging to Dunkirk, had been out 20 days last from the Texel, where she had been 2 days, but had not captured any thing. I have received no letter from Captain Wollaston, the Cruizer being left in chace of another vessel.
I am Sir, Sre. &c. Sec.
DUNCAN.
