men, many of whom call themselves passen-

The Muntego Gazette contains an affidavit
respecting the Cave of the I’n'ates, made by
‘one of the party defeated at Lupe Cruz by .2
ofthe schrs.belonging to Com.Portei’s squad-
ron and the supcrcargo of a sloop that sailed

I .
"from Monte_:,oB-.iy on the 17th July with mer-
cliandizc. The latter states that on the 19th

pirates, and he iuiniediately put his merchan-
. V,

dize into a canoe and sent it on shore at Cape
Cruz, wliere, in a short time the sclirs. came
‘to anchor, and Rodriguez, the first person al-
lude:-l to above, a boy belonging to the sloop,
went with some Spaniards up to a place where

~considering‘the schrs. as pirates, fired upon
them; the sch'rs. then brought their broad-
sides to bear, and .commenced firing, upon
which the fisherrneii, and people belonging to
the sloop, retired to the heights. Rodriguez
stated thathe took the goods out ofthe canoe
‘and placed them in a little hole -in a rock,
scarcely large enough to hold them, and says

party-who Lt. Kearney states ‘to be a.bout‘for-
ty, consisted of two -fishermen, their wives,
children, negroes, and himself, in all amoun-
ting to twelve, and instead ofa great ‘number
ofthem being killed, there was not one of
them injured ; and that the people belonging
to theAuierican schrs.took away eight canoes",
all the goods, and waiitouly destroyed all the.

TzttAL FOR Piiu.cY.—-—The followingsketch
rofthe trial of Josc_fPerez, the Spapiard who
was apprehended in Broadway by a sailor
"formerly belonging to the schr. Bee, which
took place on 9th inst. is copied from the N.
York Evening Post."

The first count of the Indictment cliarged
me pmiiiier, with having, on the 14th day of
August, 1825.’, in a certain Haven, two miles
and a-halftlistant from St. John de Remedie,
in the Island of Ctiba, piratically and feloni-

breaking and entering a'mei-chant vessel or
schooner called the ‘ Bee,’ the property of Ed-
ward Johnson, a citizen -ofthe U. States ; and
piratically and ifeloniously stealing and carry-
ing away from her4 barrels of rice, 45 barrels
of flour, 16 boxes of codfish, ‘Z0 barrels of
crackers, and 24 gold watches, the property
of the said Edward Jolmson. The second
count charged the offence to have been coin-
mitted in a Bay, two miles and a halfdistant
from St. John de Reniedie ; and the 3d count
charged it generally on the High Seas.
Edward Jolinson,testified,tliat he was a cit-
izeuofthe U. States, and was bred a sailor—
That he sailed from Charleston, S. C. on the
‘l2tb ofJuly, 18929., on board the sclir. ‘ Bee,’
of which he was the owner, for St. John de
Remedie, inthe island of Cuba, with the car-
‘go above enumerated, and valued at $4000.
That on the morning of the 14th of August,
off St. John.de Remcdie, he saw a small Bal-
timore built schr. of 80 tons, and between 25
and 30 men, under the land ; that she got un-
der weigh and made for them, with Biicnos
Ayrean colors fIying—-within about two miles
‘find a half ofthe shore they were hailed, and
immediately let go an anclior—tliat while en-
gaged forward in securing the cable, the Bee
was boarded from the strange vessel by a num-
ber of persons armed with pistols, ltnives_and
cutlasses, one of whom "beat him severely with
a cutlasss over the bead and soldiers-—that his
crew consisted of Manuel Fernando, Jas. De-
bau, Jos. Porter and Jas. Thoiupsen-—a gen-
tleman went out with him as a passenger
‘whose name he did not ‘recollect; that the
person who beat him desistedon the entreaty
of Manuel Fernando, who spoke Spanish ;—
ilie piratical crew then took the Bee’s boat,
loaded her with trunks and other articles from
her -cabin an'd proceeded for their vessel-
they then got the Bee under weigh and pro-
ceeded in her within halfa mile ofthe shore,
where they againcaine too, and proceeded to
open the Bee’s hatches—-the piratical vessel
was brought along side the Bee, when Capt.
Johnson tvas ordered‘ in the first place to assist
in‘tlirowing the ballast out of the pirate, and
then in getting otit the Bee’s cargo, a person
standing-over him with a twoinch rope, with
which he beat capt. Johnson most criielly.—
After filling the pirate, a guard was left on
board the Bee, while she proceeded to dispose
ofthe cargo, which she did to the people on
shore, as well as those in boats—-one purchas-
ing a bl. ofrice. aiiothera bl. offlour, Ste. On
the 20th, the Pirateput the remainder ofthe

schooner, which came out oTSt. John de Re-
niedie--on the Qlst they got the Bee under
weigli and beat out of the entrance of the
"K-8y§,‘\Vhere she came to tintil the morning
ft" the 22d, when the Bee was rimashore on
the West Key and burnt. At the time the Bee
was run a'sliore‘,'Capt. Jolinfsou and his crew
were treated b'arba_i'ously by the ‘pirates, one
ofwlioin (the prisoner‘) attenipted, to hang the
cook.\vit‘h thefore peak lialliards, which he
cut for that purpose. After overliaiiling the
ciiptain, passenger, and crew, they were or.
dered into a leaky -14 feet ya_wl, with an old
sail andan our and a h‘-‘ilf, with neither bread
or water, and then turned adrift upon the 0-
cean. They were in the boat. from the 22d

That after the pirate boarded, he saw a per-
son wlioui he believed to be the prisoner, with
a crowbar, endeavoring to break open the
main-liatcli——thatalthough he could not speak
with certainty, yet his beliefwas, that the pris-
oner formed one of that crew-—and thought
he could not be mistaken when he said the
prisoner was the man who attempted to force
the hatch with a crowbar~—knew of no marks
upon his person, and nothing beyond his gen-
eral appearance by which he could identify
liitn—uever saw the prisoner from that time
until he saw him in prison after his arrest.
Joseph Porter is a native of Trieste, (Italy)

faring man, and was one of the crew of the
sclir. Bce—was the person who apprelicudcd
the prisoner—-tliat the day he arrived from
Havre de Grace in the ship Bayard, he was
proceeding tip Broadway ;w-hen near Trinity
Church he discovered the prisoner and two
other Spanish sailors going down——lie imme-

the piratical vessel which captured the Bee—-
went up to him and offered to shake hauds——
the prisoner shook hands, but appeared not to
know him—-after he was informed why he was
arrested, the prisoner trembled and changed
‘color——he carried liiui to the Police—-corrob-
orates the statement of capt. Johnson, except-
ing, that the person with the crowbar who

; attempted to break open the main-hatch, was

not the prisoner but another person who re-
sembled him-—that he is confident the prison-
er was one of the crew, and the person who
cut the fonepeak balliards and attempted to
hang the cook—that when arrested, the pris-
oner made no attempt to get away--went with
him peaceably--has a scar on the back ofhis
left hand, which he observed when the prison-
er and the rest ofthe pirates were gambling
with the proceeds of the Bee’s cargo which
had been sold to the people ash0re—witness
understands the Spanish language tolerably
well, but was careful not to let the pirates
know it--the prisoner does not speak English
-—tliinkshe cannot be mistaken in the prison-
er—does not recollect any scar on his right
hand, the scar on his left hand looked whitish
like a burn or scald. Messed with the pris-
oner on board the piratical vessel and saw
him two or three times a day for 8 days, and
cannot be niistaken in the man——iseertai'u that
the prisoner was not the man who attempted
to force the hatch with the crowbar.

The U. S. Attorney then attempted to con-

nect the prisoner with a suspicious vessel
which lay at Brooklyn. and on the day ofthe
prisoiier’s arrest, slipped her cable and went
to sea~—wliich vessel, be presumed, the pris-
oner arrived in, and was the same that cap-
tured the Bee. In this, however, he entirely
failed, as the prisoner proved that he arrived
here in the Spanish corvette ‘Tarantula.’ from
Cadiz, long before the arrival of the ‘ Esper-
ango,’ from Havana.
The Jury retired about 7 in the evening.
and mi representing the impossibility oftlieir
ever agreeing, were discliaiged by the Court
about half after 10 o’clock.

 

By last evem'ng’s Jlfnil.

The fullowing intcrcstiiig letter is from a
respectable gentleniamdatetl Cadiz, Aug.1st.
“The situation ofthis city is neither better
nor worse since I last wrote you. The Freucli
have been fotir months in the coiiiitry, anti I
conceive their cause looses ground daily. In
Catalonia there is no end to the figliting——
the Spaniards always successful. In this
Province, where Ballasteros is now gainiiig
ground, we look to active measures soon. A
sally. that was iuaile here from the lines, shew-
ed that our men know how to fight. Tliey
marched up to the enemy's parapets without
firing a shot, till they reached them. All the
force employed on our side was not more than
about 3000 nien.—-Tlie French however, in
their bulletin, stated our loss to have been
from two to three-thousand, limiting theirs to
five Iitmdrcd. The latter part I believe. On
our side we had about twenty killed, and two
huur.lred wounded. No prisoners.

‘ There are accounts to-day that the advan-
ced guard of Ballasteros and Gen. Molnar
have met, and that victory decided in favor of
the former. The defection of Murillo is
quite ati extraordinary event, as it has produ-
ced no alteration in the army, which all aban-
doned him, as it did Abisbal on a former oc-
casion. Provisions are not scarce—this place
is constantly supplied from Gibraltar.’

By an arrival at N.York on Saturday, Lon-
don papers to the 3lstJuly are rec’d. They
contain nothing of importance, except the
particulars ofthe defeat ofthe French before
Corunua,' who retreated on the 16th and the
Spaniards, with Sir Robert “Wilson at their
head, were preparing to pursue them. The
Spaniards had picked tip a considerable quan-
tity of arms-and amiminitiou on the ground
that had been occupied by the French.

A vessel arrived at N. York on Saturday,
which left Bordeaux on the first ult.but brings
no political neivs,the captain stating that none
had been published there lately ofthe opera-
tions in Spain,from which it is reasonably re-
ported that the French affairs are not very
prosperous, as they havethe means of dissem-
inating intelligence very rapidly,i_'/'the_i/please.
Advices from Lagiiira, state that the Span-
ish forces at Porto Cavello, were eiigagetl in
dismouiiting the cannon, 8,'c. preparatory to
the evacuation oftliat post. This is the fin-
ishing stroke to the power of Old Spain in
Colombia. A '

The Sloop-Lock between Troy and Lans-

large concourse of people had the satisfaction
of seeing a number of sloops and the steam-

plough their course tlirough the hitherto un-
navigable waters ofthe Hudson up to the vil-

The usual Commencement exercises took
place at Yale College on Wednesday last.—
The degree ofA. B. was conferred on 7lyoung
gentlemen, alumni ofthe college, and the de-
gree of A. M. on 28. ‘

A case of Yellow Fever at No. 1. Beaver-
st. was reported to the New-York Board of
Health on the lltli inst. but upon enquiry, it
was ascertained that it was a person who had
resided, for two weeks, on board a vessel from
Havana.

The editor of the N. Y. American thinks
that Capt. Biddle, of the Congress, would
have forced his way into Cadiz, in spite of
the French fleet, had he not been withheld by
the opinioh of Mr. Nelson, and gives it as his
belief that the event will cause some dis-
cussion between the government of France
and the United States.

Suicizlc.—A young man aged 19, lately
from Liverpool, put a period to his existence,
on the 9th inst. in Philadelphia, by taking a
dose ofpoison. From a letter addressed to his
mother, it appears that he had been forced
to come to America by his uncle, and that he
was now here in ‘destitute circumstances, and
had taken this method ofridding himself of
his misfortunes.

./1Jlfi'ne.ral Spring, ofhighly medicinal vir-
tue, and as one account says, combining all
the properties of the different springs in the
state, has lately been discovered near Sag-
Harbor, L. I. Its waters possess all the qual-
ities ofye-ast,wlien used in making bread,ren-
dering it uncommonly light and spongy.

Fire.—A letter dated Wiscasset, Sept. 5th,
states that oti the 4th a severe gale of wind
commenced,which continued through the day,
when fires, which had previously been set in
the woods, began to spread in several direc-
tions towards that town. cou'suming every
thing combustible in their course, and the
smoke was so thick that no exertions could be
made to stop their progress. Gloom now sat
on every countenance, but about 10 P. M. the
wind abated, and the alarm for the safetyof
the village in a great measure ceased. The
fire spread 4 or_5 miles, in as many lioiirs--80
buildings were burnt, and one person, a fe-
male perished in the flames. The letter adds
that Bath and other places are also suffering
from the same cause.

Bank Robber}/.—A most daring robbery
was committed on the Marietta and Susque-
hannah Trading Companies, on the night of
the 29th tilt. , The cashier was siescd on -tlie

I

porch of ilie Banking House, by tlireeiillriins,
who presented each a pistol to his breast‘, and

' ' force_d, him tozgo into the bank and iinlock_‘tlii-

Black Rock Harbo'r.—-It is stated in the
Buffalo Journal, that in ‘addition to the sum
of 84,000 dollars, allowed ‘by the canal coni-
niissioners for making a harbor at Black Rock,
there is now to be added the "sum of 370,000,
for the purpose of constructing aosloop lock
in the dam, “ through which vessels that can-
not enter the mouth ofthe harbor by reason of
the wind, can be admitted, after having run
down the British channel, past tlie'harbor.”

The New-York American states that there
is now at No. 17 Catharine-st. a young lady
18 years old, who has wholly abstained from
animal food for more than 12 months past.
In July 18%], she was attacked with bilious
fever, which soon was lost in a complication
of disorders, "nervous, spasmodic, St. Vitus’
dance, &:c. She gradually lost her appetite
and since August 1829, she has wholly refus-
ed all kinds of animal or ordinary vegitable
food. She takes occasionally an apple,'peach,
or pear, but her principal nutriuicnt is mo-
lasses and water. Her general health since
her abstinence has improved.

Pyrolcgenous ac£d.—-"-The Statesman in-
forms us, that the body ofM'r. Senator Board-
man, who died in Ohio, has been brought
from that statein a perfect and unaltered con-
dition, by being preserved in pyrolegenous a-

’ cid ; a chemical preparation now in general

use for preserving animal substance. VVe

- have for some time been of opinion, that pyr-

olegenous acid far excels the Egyptian gums
and spices used by the ancients for embalming
the dead; and bodies thus preserved will last
for ages unaltered in the features, and but
slightly in couiplexion.—.Hdv.
