{"value"=>"Has received his letter transmitting a return of Spanish prisoners sent to the Havanna, and commends his attention to them; imagines an equal number of British subjects now confined in noisome prisons may be exchanged for them; the situation in Carolina and Georgia is lamentable, and owing to the apprehensions of Sir James Wright and Gov. Graham, Col. Clarke is induced to return with the reinforcements brought from thence; should have protested but was prevented by Gov. Tonyn's letter; hears from Pensacola that Don Galvez is preparing to reduce the forts; hopes the Admiral at Jamaica will arrive in time to relieve them."}
