C'rue[ usage.--'1‘lie following extractshave been
politely furnished us, by the gentleman to whom
the letter was addressed :
* HA-VANA Pmson, July 29, 1819.
5 I have been more than three yearsa prisoner,
and have suffered more than tongue can expricss.
For your amusement I will give ‘you. a small
51.-_¢1c1, of them. I was taken on the third ofOc-
tober, 1816, in sight of St. Jago de Cuba, and on
the 4th was committed to prison, with all my
crew, 38 in number. On the 5th, I was confined
in the dungeon by myself, and only allowed one
plate of rice and a pintof water for 24 hout'5—
no person allowed to-speak to me, or render me
the least assistance whatever. Previous to my be-
ing put in the close room, the Gaoler took from
me my watch and what money I had about me ;
clothes I had none, except the shirt and trowsers ~
I had on, having been deprived of them before.
In that situation I remained in the dungeon until
the 25th'of ~I"<:b. l8_l7, ncarly-five months, when
Com. Taylor appeared off the Moro, with his
squadron,_ and sent a letter to the Governor de- .
manding me and my Crew in exchange for pris-
‘ V ..
oners he had on -board——the Governor was a little
A alarmed at the appearance of this squadron, and
imme"di'.itely ortlered‘me otit of irons; thenfliancl-
c‘t1ffed_me and eleven others of my crew, and put
us on the march for this place, under a strong
guard, the most of us barefoot, and'on_ly allowed
sullicient food to keep life in us, and nothing
nib:'e. In this situation I was compelled to
marched 250 leogues, which took us forty-"six
days to complete it. We were obliged to use ev-
ery exertion to reach here, as the Governor’s or-
der to the officer of the guard, was, in case of any
of us giving out, so that we could not reach this,
to cut oil‘ his head, and bring it here in a basket,
to shew that he had not made his escape. ‘We
all. howxjcver, arrived here on the l2th of April.-—
I was -in a most dreadful situation, my feet swel-
led to that degree, that they were nearly round ;
my toe -nails came out ; and the vermin on the
remnant of the shirt and trowset-is I had on, near-
ly de\=ou~"~cd me--my beard six :'.}1_0iltllS and a half
growing, as I never was allowed ‘to shave or cut
my heard froinihe time I was taken, until I arri-
ved in this prison ; therefore, I will leave you to
judge what a figure I cut. I was verynear dead;
so far gone,‘ that I- partly lost my senses ; but by
the attention of some of the prisoners, and the as-
sistance of some masters of vessels of my ac-
quaintance, I recovered again in part. I still re-
main feeble, owing to the horrid living we a-re
obliged to. put up with; all the allowance I get,
is one ounce of bread, and ounce of heel for 24
hours——ive are allowed some damaged rice and
beans boiled together, but I make no use of them ;
I cannot eat them, therefore -I am obliged to sup‘-
port myself or starve. The most of the prison-
ers make outto five by their work ; a man must
work patteniivt-ly to earn 12 1-2 cents per day—-
some'hovest.arved to death. j_ I
‘ Many people, no doubt, censure me for being
taken in arms against the Spaniards ; but they are
ignorant as to the provocation I had which indu-
ced me to take arms against them. I had been
defrauded, and most cruelly injured by them...
I will give you a small sketch :--In the time
ofihe lute war between Great-Britain and Amer-
ica, I purchased a brig; a Spanish merchant now
residing in Havana, procured Spanish papers for
her, and lent his name to them, for which he
charged me upwards of ,_-S700 ; he also procured
a Captain, :1 friend of his, who also esides at Ha-
vana--the first and only voyage he made, was
from America to St. Jago de Cuba, where he, by
gambling and other misconduct S'.lClIi'lCe(l vessel r
and cargo; the latter amounting to 325,000--
As— soon as the news reached the in America, I
took passage for that place, but was captured" on
my way, which prolonged the time for several
rnonths—when I reached Cuba, thecaptain had
absconded, considerably in debt : he made the
bestof his way for H-avana—-theyendeavoured to
make me‘ pay his debts but did not succeed--but
I lost the vessel and cargo, time, trouble, and ex-
pence.‘ I had met with a similar loss not long be-
fore, of $10,000--these losses took my last dol-
lav from me, which I had toiled hard for--and
havirig no other way of getting any redress, I
pt‘:-rci1as‘ed' a part of a small privateer--I took two
prizes, but lost'hoth, and the privateer. ' ‘
‘I have thusgiven you a small sketch of my
misfortunes, which have been the means of bring-
ing me here. I have done it to do away any pre-
judice you might entertain against me, for being
what is termed a privateersman. I have never
robbed‘ or plundered any one, nor even overhaul-
ed any one but Spaniards. I had been but a few
days out ; hadmade two captures, one a Guinea-
- man’; I stood close into the Moro, off.St. Iago,
for the purpose of ransoming her; a large ves-
sel of war being there, ready for sea, canieout,
and sailing faster than us, captured my privateer
after a smart action, together with both prizes—-
wherewithl lost every thing I possessed. I have
already stated w‘hat followed. -‘

Harrison, after he was arrested by Birch, was
permitted to go at large on giving bail, and im-

In noticing this,
the Courier ofthe 29th of: July says-—-‘ We men-

£:;ECt:I\'e from different parts of Germany, that
:t'he1'e exists in that country a number of daring
iconspirators, whose ‘plan is to introduce anarchy
;‘and disorder. ' 'The plots against the public safe-
;;‘.y are not, however, confined to professors and
istudents. The arrests which have taken place
‘at Berlin, Magdeburgh, Jena and Heidelberg, are
calculated to excite the most serious reflections.

The discontents a'nd disturbances in this and
the neighboring towns, having begun to assume"
a very serious aspect, a general meeting of the
magistrates of Lancashire and Cheshire, 0f_.€.ill po-
litical parties, has been held at the New Bai_l_e.y,
in Manchester, to take into considera_tion,the at
larming appearances which have lately been ‘that;-B ‘
ifested. Measures of this kind are now, indeed,
become absolutely necessary. \Vhen popular
discontent begins to shew a disposition to degen-
erate into blood-shed, the people must be prevent-
ed by force from becoming their own destroyers,
as well as the destroyers of their fellow citizens.
The resolutions adopted at this meeting musti
be universally approved, for the firmness and a
termination‘ which they express and inculcate.--'
VVe could have wished, however, that In imitation
of some other meetings of magistrates, theyhad '
adverted more directly to the unquestionable suf-
ferings of the manufacturing poor, and express-
ed more pointedly their willingness and the1r‘for-
wardness to try every expedient in their poyvegr _
which can tend‘ to sooth or tolighten‘ these dig"-
plorablu evils. The legislature havl-ng.§epar.z_i-::
ted witliout proposing any plan.-for this put'po~sv;,g,
the awful weight. of that arduoustask devolves (in?
individual exertion. 'l‘he.‘narrow and~i-ll-cont.i'i-
ved scheme of emigration, offers scarcely an ex-
ception to_this re mark-. Instead of50,000 poun_ds,
one million at least was requisite, even to give-
the proj-ect a fair trial. . . .
Another meetingha-s been--convened at Lon-'-
don, by Mr. Owen and his friends, to take into
consideration the increasing distresses of the
manufacturing poor, ‘and to devise, if possible,
some expedients ~ for their removal or allevia-

"3 Accounts from Trinidad state,that Bolivar had
jtaken from the Royalists, by surprize, a consid-
jerable quantity of specie, and had advanced a con-
—siderable distance into New Grenada, which is
represented as beingfin a stpte of rebellion. Pa-
ez was left by him on the river Apure, to keep in
check the Royalists awut that quarter, which, it
is said, he is capable of doing. The Independ-
ents, it isisaid, have had the advantage in every
