There is a french Ship Arrived last fryday from France itt is said came Out about the same time the last Vessells. Whether they1 the same day cant learn, but there is a report that the Boston was Arrived. I dont find any letters about itt, but wish itt may be true and cant but hope there may be some truth in itt. I cant find that the report from New York had any foundation for the report.
