All that is new to us in these papers are the reports of the piratical
attack of the Indians on the American Schooner "
Susan Sturges"—with
which we have no concern—and
M Cooper's representations of the
State of the Colony. The
Gov have so little hold over the Governor
that it is idle to give him instructions—which he is without the means
of enforcing, but perhaps it might be

insisted on with the Company that
a more effective establishment
sh be kept up for the adm of
justice. Should
M Cooper's Letters be sent to the Comp?
