New-York, March 12. . . [1 paragraph] We further learn by
this gentleman, that two schooners arrived at the havanah
about a week or ten days before he left it, from the Tortude
bank, where they met with the wreck of a large ship, her
bottom gone from her upper works, and full of rum between
decks, which they bought off . . . they found cut on the
bell, which they likewise brought off, Ship Pompey 1774, by
which 'twas imagin'd to be the ship Pompey, Capt. England,
from Jamaica for London, and was one of the fleet spoke with
before the gale. . .
