A HIGH-WAT ROBBKR-
T he Mond iy previous to Thanksgiving-,
Mr. Joseph Lord, jun. of Ipswich, was re
turning from Boston, where he had been to
receive the int-ered 011 Ibme State Notes, to
the amount ol 2or 30° dollars. In the new
road, just at lull-down, be was (topped bv a
large Blackmail, who laid hold of the boric's
Jridle, and demanded the young man's mo
ney—Mr. Lord was considerably dartled at
firft, and ' endeavoured to warn him of the*
consequences of such conduift but the Fei
- low relolHtely perfided in demanding his mo
ney—finally, as Mr: L. was putting his
hand into his pocket to deliver him his loose
change, he observed a man on horseback
coming towards him—he immediately hal
lowed, and the gentleman rode up, and the
Negro instantly made of— but the gentle
man and Mr. Lord pursued, overtook, and
with considerable refinance, flogged him tj
such a degree that he laid down iji the road
apparently dead. He laid he .would sooner
be killed on the spot than to go to jail, and
they were obliged to leave him the rascal in
the road. The foregoing may be depended
on at fa&s.
NEW-YORK, December 25. •
It was mentioned in our Gazette yester
day, under the London head, that Caraccbi,
who was at the head of the plot for the
aflaffination of Buonaparte, had been in
America. This is true—a Gentleman was
at the office of this Gazette yesterday, who
informed us that he had dined with him
in Philadelphia several times ; and further
mentions, th.it -while in Philadelphia, he
had conltrudted a model r>f a monument
Intended as an honor to the Great Wathing
toit. This mcdel was exhihited for the
infpeftion of several Gentlemen, who were
highly pteafed with the ingenuity of its
Ctnftruflion.
Caracchi was genteel in his deportment,
*nd aflociated with Frenchmen oirefpefta
bility while in America.
Since the above, we have conversed with
another Gentleman who saw Caracchi with
his model in this city, in the year 1790.
We dial] not hazard a conjecture on the
nature of his business to this country.
Last evening arrived hers the thip Argus,
Captain.Maine, in 32 days from St. Sebaf
iians. Ihe Captain came on (hore without
the Paris Papers intended for us, wlueli,
he informs os, are as late as the 17th of
November. This morning we (hall receive
them, and on Friday the'readers of the New-
York Gazette m-ty expeft Transitions five
days than any thing heretofore receiv
ed from that quarter. IT7* Undei the
Marine Head will be found feveraj interell

the United States fliip PreTident, to his
friend in New-York, dated St. Pierre's
N«». aotJu
« \\r e this morning came to an anchor in
the road oi St. Pierre, where we found
th« John Adams, and the. schooner Experi
ment which we lent in a .few days ago, ha
ving carried away her foretopmaft and sprung
ker foremaft in chace. She is getting new
ones, ind will Coon be at sea again. I be
lieve there are few privateers out now ;
they (lay in the ports ; and if they fee a
•velfel they run out and in again immediately.
This is evidently the cafe ; for none of our
Ships have fallen in with them, and we can
fee jinmbe.-s of them Hinder the land. The
Sloop of War Mrnimack, about. ten days
ago, captured a privateer brig of 14 guns
•that **as driven out of Gurracoa by the
IE/iglilA. The John Adams is going home,
fcer crvife being out. She has captured
chsven prizes this trip, one of which was
retaken and carried into Guadaloupe."
