TUESDAY, JULY 5, 1824.
The National Intelligencer has published
. upwards oftliirty colunius of the evidence
in the ‘case of Edwards and Crawford, given
before tlte Committee of‘-,.'Iiiv'estigation ; anti
from a careful perusal of the whole we have
been led to the opinion, that, as to the matter
offact. every one of Mr. E’s charges have
been wholly, or in part, sustained ; but that
Mr. "C. was not actuated by dishonest purposes
in any of his transactions. It appears that in
several instances he has violated the letter of
the law, and that in consequence‘considera-
ble losses have been sustained by the govern-
ment. It likewise appears thatiri consequence
of his illegal arrangements with Western
Banks, pensioners in that quarter have fre-
quently been paid oll" in hills which were
9.0 and 925 per cent. below par! thus virtually
robbing them of one-fotirtli oftlieir already
too scanty allowance. It is proved that at
various times he has made large depos-
itcs ofinonies belonging to the government in
Banks which were about to fail, for the‘ pur-
pose of sustaining them, and that in none of
these instances has interest been paid to the
government for the use ofthe monies so depos-
ited: several thousand dollars ofthis money
have never been repaid, and probably never
will be. From some part of the evidence
submitted to the committee we have received
an unfavorable impression ofthe character of
Mr. Edwards. It was testified by several re-
spectable witnesses that Mr. E. had often de-
nied, in their presence, the authorship of the
A. B. publications, or, as usually termed, the
.9. B.'plot—-—'I‘his denial was made during the
pendency of his nomination as Minister to
Mexico, and but a few weeks previous to his
public declaration that he was the atitlior. It
would seem, however, from questions propo-
sed by hitii and his son-in-law, Mr. Cook, to
some ofthe witnesses, that he did not consid-
‘er the publications as a plot, and that it was
the latter only the authorship of which he de-
nied—a small hole this, we shouldltliink, “to
creep out at.” The following will give our
readers a specimen of Mr. E’s language, and
an idea of his character. '
Charles H. IVharton being sworn, testified
that Mr. Edwards had told him that he was
not the author of the A. B. plot; that he did
not know any thing about it.
Q. In what maniie_r was this denial made?
A. The manner appeared to be solemn ;the
expressions were—‘ He would bed d iflie
know any thing of that d——d A. B. plot.’
Q. How came he to say any thing about it?
A. Icalled upon hint for the purpose ofpro-
curing recoiiitiiendations to the different Sec-
retaries of the Departments with a view ofob-
raining a clerkship. He said he was acquaint-
ed with all ofthein, and could give letters to
all of them, except Mr. Crawford, and a letter
to him would do no good, for, (to use his own
expressions) that he and Mr.‘ Crawford “did
not set horses together ;” ‘ that "Mr. Crawford
was uirder a.belief_that, he was the author of
tired d A. B. plot, the authorship ofwhich
he disavotvcd; and he concluded by saying
that he considered Mr. Crawford a very clev-
er and honourable man.
Q. by Mr. Cook. Are you certain that Mr.
Edwards, in speaking of an A. B. plot, did
not say that he knew nothing of any plot?
A. I have correctly stated the conversation
as it occurred. ' ‘
[Mr. E.’s language to others was equally
indecent with the above.]
On Thursday,the lst inst. Tizitipctz Lonciz,
No.65, in the Village of Saugatuck, was pub-
_ licly consecrated, and the ofiicers installed in
regular and ancient form. The procession
formed at the Lodge Room, and repaired to
Green’s Farms Meeting-House, where an ap-
propriate Discoiirse was delivered by the Rev.
Mr. Judah, of Bridgeport, from John iii. 10.
“ Art than a master of Israel, and lmowest not
these thmgs f?” The Speaker closed his re-
marks with an interesting charge to the oili-
cers and members of the new Lodge, and to
the Fraternity in general, which ought to be
faithfully treasured up by every member of
the Order. After the ceremonies were con-
cluded the Brethren returned in procession to
Mr. L. Nash’s, where a dinner was served up
to about 190 or 180 members of different
Lodges. The weather was fme—a large eon-
course of people attended ; and the exercises
ofthe day were passed through in the utmost
harmony and good order.—Commum'cated.
Mr. Benedz'ct,——I noticed in your Gazette,
of last week, an article on banking and mon-
ied institutions. The writer doubtless had in
view, particularly, the Bank lately incorpora-
ted by the legislature, in the County of Fair-
field. His arguments, or rather assertions,
appeared tube levelled not only against banks,
but against _iiionied institutions of every de-
scription, such as Insurance Incorporations,
. and Manufacturing Associations :——all at one
{stroke were deiiotinced as anti-republican, in-
consistent with common sense, and incompat-
ible with the enjoyment of civil liberty.-
Nothiug, he says, is so prejudicial to this com-
mumty—\Vliet her he means by this community
the little village ofNew-Cauaan, where he re-
sides, or the county of Fairfield, where the
Batik is located, I am at a loss to determine.
He then steps over this community and aitns
a blow at every iiionied institution in this
country. These various systetns have form-
ed, he 53)’-9- SUCII 3 gigantic coalition, that if
sotne gigantic effort be not soon tiiade to burst
these gigantic and ignominious bonds, we,
that is the common people, will becouie bew-
ers ofwood and drawers ofwater to these mon-
ied folks. How these very important and
useful institutions are to become engines of
destruction to the people, and prevent the en-
joyment of civil and religious liberty, I have
yet to learn from the writer, who,l conclude,
has as little knowledge of their general prin-
ciples and utility, as he has of grammar and
ofthe rules of composition.

a Steam Boat has been built at that place
which is to ply bettveeii Rochester and Sclie-

Thunder Storm.—Tlie Baltimore Patriot
says,’ “ We scarcely ever witnessed more
dreadful thunder storms,than those with which
our city was visited on Monday evening and
Tuesday morning. The thunder was tre-
mendously loud and almost incessant ; and
the lightning, especially in the evening, one
continued glare. The following are the only
injuries we have yet heard of. Mr. Jesse
Bunch, a poor man, living in the rear ofCliris-
topher Hughes’, was struck dead, and one of
his children severely burnt. The chimney of
the auction store at the corner of Charles and
Market sts. was struck and slightly injured ;
the fluid divided, one branch passed down the
chiiniiey,entered the room, prostrated a young
man, and passed .out at the door ; its appear-
ance in the street was that ofa large ball of
fire. The other branch followed the water
spout round the eaves ofthe store, descended
the spout to the window ofMr. Canlield’s Lot-
tery Oflice, which it shattered, ar-;"passed in-
to the street. A part of this branch of the
fluid, it is supposed, entered the gas tube at
Mr. Caiifield’s window, and descended into
the pipes, all the gas lights ofthe ofi‘ices,stores
and city lamps, from above Baruuin’s Hotel,
oti the opposite side to Belvidere street, were
extinguished, while the oil and candle lights
were untouched. This is a most cur’ us ef-
fect oflightniug, and will doubtless attract
the attention of the scientific.
The Elephant Balloon, yesterday, went off
in fine style from Vauxliall Garden. Rcsenib-
ling the elephant in shape and colour, and of
gigantic size, it ascended majestically to a
considerable height, remained a long time in
view ofthe city, and was last seen hovering
over Hempstead Plains in its- course to the
eastward before the breeze. It gave a degree
ofsatisfactioii, rather tiiicxpected, to an im-
tnetise concourse of spectators, who were
highly gratified by the novel and curiotis ex-
hibition.-.N'. Y. Statesman, o_/‘June Q9.
The aerial elephant, which left Vauxliall
on Monday afternoon, made but a short ex-
cursion in the upper regions, notwitlrstaiiding
the height to which he ascended ; the wind
having died and left no alternative buttere-
main stationary in the heavetis, like i\lahoni-
et’s cofiiu, or return to the. earth but a few
miles distance from his starting point. He
descended in safety, at Bushwick two miles
frotn VVilliaiiisburg, and returned to the pro-
prietors uninjured.-—.—1b. Q/‘June S0. '
flmerican Indians.—lt is ascertained thai
471,417 Indians are connected with the Un_it-
ed States : 120,000 of whom are scattered
through the States from the Atlantic to the
Mississippi: 130,000 between the Mississippi
and the Rocky Mountains ; 170,000 between
the Rocky Mountains and the Pacific. Of
those who reside _witliiii the limits of the U.
States, 5000 are supposed to be in the state of
New-York consisting chiefly of Oneidas,Sen-
ecas, Onondagoes and Tuscaroras, being the
remnants ofthe former coiifederacy of the
Six Nations; 9500 of various tribes are in N.
England ; 21400 in Ohio; and 45,000 in In-
diana, Illitiois, Michigan, 8:0. A remnant of
the Catawba nati'ous, amounting to about 150
reside in two villages on the Catawba. river,in
this State, on what is called the IndianLands,
15 miles square. They occasionally visit
Charleston. Drunkeniiess, that scourge of
the human race, is their prevailing vice, and
has emaciated their persons and benuiiibed
their faculties.-—S. 0. paper.
American flsylmn for the Deaf and Dumb.
By the politeness ofa friend, we have been
favored with a copy of the eighth report of
the Directors of the American Asylum at
Hartford for the education and instruction of
the deaf and dumb. From this docutneiit it
appears, that the whole number ofpu_pils front
the coinnienceinent to the present time is 128,
and of these 06 have left the asylum, and 89.
still remain. During the past year, thc.Di-
rectors have made air alteinpt at a considera-
ble expense to introduce tiiecliaiiical employ-
tiients airiong the pupils, upon a regular and
systematic plan.‘ Two neat and connnodious
brick workshops have been erected near the
Asylum, and air ingenious and skillul mechan-
ic lias been employed to oversee this depart-
ment of the institution. He resides with the
pupils, in order to become l‘(111‘1lll2t1‘.tVlll1 the
language ofsigns, and to qtialify liiiiiselfto
discharge in the best tnaniier the duties ofhis
station. Tools and other necessary accom-
niodalions have been provided, and although
the arrangements are hardly yet completed, a
considerable number ofthe pupils are already
at work. Six are now engaged in learning
the trade ofa cabitiet- maker orjoiiier ; in one
ofthe shops a forge is erected, at which a ve-
ry ingenious blacksmith and cutler is employ-
ed, while three of the pupils, under his in-
struction, are learning the same trade. One
cooper and six shoemalters are at work, and
several ofthe females are employed in binding
the shoes. Six of the pupils wish to be print-
ers, but in the present state of the institution
it is iriipossible to make provision for them.-
Sotne ofthe articles already made by the pn-
pils, evince riiuch skill and command a ready
sale. Frotn the Treasurer’s report it appears
that the receipts during the past year have
been 825,447, of which sum 815,180 were re-
ceived for sales ofAlabama lands, S1400 divi-
dends at Phoenix bank, and $7808 from the
pupils. The expenditure for board and tui-
tion of pupils,amounted to 810,778.-.N'. Y. Obs.
The Vice-Presidency.-—-Iii discussing the
paramount question of who shall be the next
President, the Vice-Presidency seems to have
been almost forgotten. No candidate has yet
been designated by an expression of public 0-
pinion, approaching to any thing like unau-
.imit_v. Mr. Calhoun has been nominated in
some of the states, and Gen. Jackson in oili-
ers; but the views of neither of these gentle-
men in regard to that oflice are at all known,
and it is doubtful whether they would consent
to be candidatcs, or serve if elected. We
hope popular sciitinient my fix upon a man
eminently qualified for the station, which will
become doubly important at this crisis, where
there is so much doubt as it respects the Pres-
idency. One thing appears to us pretty cer-
taiii—tliatMr. Gallatin cannot and will not
be elected. Our objections to‘ him are in'su-
perable, whoever may be President. Iti the
first place, the iitriiost stretch of liberality
does not require, that we should prefer a for‘-
eigner to a native citizen. Secondly, the
partlie took in the whiskey rebellion is to say
the least, no recommendation to him. Sdly,
at a.c_ritical period during the late war, be de-
serted his post at the head ofthe Treasury
Department, and took refuge from our floati-
cial embarrassiiients, in a snug birth at a for-
eign court. Fourthly, he has already shared
as liberally in the favor and patronage ofthe
government, as he is entitled to, either by his
talents or services. This is a summary ofour
objections, which we hope and trust will have
equal weight with otlrers.—‘-N. Y. Statesman.
" The Merrimac JlIdm'ifactory.-—Tliis is the
most flourishing and promising establishment
ofthe kind in the U. States. The exclusive
object of the Company is the manufacturing
and printing Cotton Goods or Calicoes; A-
bout 500 pieces or 2500 yards are turned out
daily. None, however, have yet been prepar-
ed fqr market, the stamping Factory having
not been in operation. One Factory only is
now in operation, in which are employed a-
bout 200 females. Another Factory, togeth-
er with the Printing and Dyeing \Vorks, and
the_macliiiie shop, will_be in full operation in
the course a few months, which will require
at least one thousand hands. The population
of this village, which previous to the estab-
lishment oftliis inanufactory,was a mere wil-
derness, is tiow about one thousand. The
street, on which the dwelling houses are erec-
ted for those employed in the Factories, is
very handsomely locatetl, _ being about lialfof
a mile in length and fronting a Canal, which
conveys the water to the Factories from the
old Pawtucket Canal, which was originally
made for the convenieucejof navigation, a-
round the Falls, which has been widened and
the locks undergone a thorough repair. An-
other Canal lias been projected on which the
ground has been staked out for more Facto-
iies, two it is understood will be erected each
successive year. The water privilege surpas-
ses, perhaps, any in the U. States, and is, esti-
mated sufficient to employ 50,000 persons.-
Several elegant dwelling-liouses have been
built, and a stone Church is now nearly firi-
ished. The plan of the whole work ' is very
judicious and conveniently arrauged,zmd does
liouor to the pi'ojcct0rs.—.—Chelm.'~§ford Paper.
Yellow Fer;er.—A strong case, in prooftltat
the Yellow Fever is coiitagious, is given in
the London papers, in the case ofthe British
vessel of war, the Béinn. She went from Sier-
ra Leone with 107 Europeans, in apparant
good health, and before her arrival at the isl-
and of Ascension, where she was bound, she
lost 13, and afterwards 20, by the yellow fe-
ver-—and 99 were seized with it. She found
the island in health, and there had been no
death for two years. Soon after she arrived
the yellow Fever broke out, and of 20 men in
one fort, 16 died, besides four women and five
children.
Loss of the ship Hannibal.-Extract of ti
letter from the Capt. dated ‘Livt=.rpool,t\Iay2:’.’..
‘ We left the Capes ofVirginia on the 12th
April ; nothing worthy of notice occurred till
the 29d, when in lat. 44, long. 40, the wind
blowing a gale, thcfisliip was struck with light-
ning, while in the ac"t’of taking in the main-
topsail, which killed the 2d tiiate and two sea-
men, and wounded every man about the main-
mast but two. After getting the wounded be-
lmv, I examined the mast coats and deck,.but
discovered only a small piece split otit of the
deck, from which I concluded the fire had
not gone below. Shortly after, while rubbing
the wounded, we discovered from the smoke
itnniediately got the wounded men on deck,
got the buckets ready, cut two holes through
the deck abreast the uiainmast, the flames
burst up with great violence, but we succeed-
ed in smothering it by throwing in a great
quantity of water, until it was 3 inches deep
in thecabin. At day-light wediscovered the
hatches were much burnt, we made several at-
tempts to get at the seat of the fire, but the
smoke was so suffocating it was impossible to
reach it, and the cotton bagging was so iinich
consumed that it was impossible to remove it,
only in liandlitlls. VVe succeeded, however,
in keeping it dowir till the morning ofthe 24th,
when it began to break thro’ the iriain deck;
all hopes of saving the ship being gone, we
cut some‘ holes thro’ the deck over the store-
room, and by sending down one ofthe crew,
with a rope fast "round him, we drew up sotne
provisions and left the ship in the long boat,
being 14 in number, and steered our course
for the \Vesteru Islands: after being 56 hours
at sea, we were taken tip by the brig Thetis,
Capt.Taylor, and treated with every attention,
and arrived at Liverpool_on the flfid May.
Mr. John Taylor, of Virg. broke his thigh,
shortly after the ship was struck, and died 12
hours after in great pain. The cook was suf-
focated in the forecastle. \Vhile on board the
Thetis, a young man named -— Loring, of
Diixbitry,was washed overboard and drowned.
[The Hannibal was a new ship, owned in
Boston, where she was fully insured.]
VVe learn by‘Capt. Loring, that while the
brig Herald, Capt. Aaron W. VVilliam's, of
Salem,was lying in a Spanish port, in the Pa-
cific,(the place not recollected) AdmiralGuise
of the Patriot squadron appeared at the port,
and at night sent his boats, into the harbour,
for the purpose of cutting out the sliipping.-
They made an attempt upon the Herald, but
were repulsed. Asecond attempt was tlieu
made with a reinforcement of boats, but by
the assistance ofa Providence sliip,they were
again repulsed. A Spanish frigate was then
attacked and taken, after which her cables
were cut and she set on fire. The American
vessels then cut their cables and went to sea,
when they were all taken possession of by
Guise, a broadside having been fired into the
Herald. All the Americans, except the Her-
ald and the Providence ship, were released
immedi_ately. The next day the Herald was
ransoined for $8000, and the Providence ship
for 2000, and they both sailed for the north-
ward. Ivhat other American vessels were
there was not known at B. Ayres.-Salem Griz.
issued into the cabin,tlrat the ship was on fire ; ‘
Mail furnished us the following intelligence
from South America, which was received by
an arrival at Salem from Buenos Ayres.
On the 18th Feb.‘ the Pertivianvfriaate La
Preuba, Adtniral Giii's'e, entered Callao and
fired upon the place for half an hour. After
which be commenced bringing away the titer-
chant vessels inithe port. By iireans ofa fire
ship he then burnt the ships of warin the pos-
session of the insurgents. By this operation
there have remained in possession of the in-
surgents only 6 merchant vessels, a brig of
war and a gun boat. On the 29th the Roy-
alists took possession ofthe Castles and town
ofCallao. The Admiral fortned the resolu-
tion of burning all the vessels that remained
in the port. ,
A letter from Santiago, Chili, March 30,
says :—“ I have received a letter from Capt.
Allen, of the Canton, dated at Lima, March
1, who states, that Admiral Guise sent in his
boats, and set fire to the frigate lying‘ there,
and burnt two other vessels. The C. got out-
side without any great damage, but being
near enough to have her davits scorched.’-
She lost an anchor, and 80 fathoms of chain
cable. All the Americans escaped the con-
tiagration; but it appears that Guise attempt-
ed to board the Herald, of Salem, and Provi-
dence, ofProvidenc'e; but they thinking his
boats were piratical boats from the shore, fired
on them, and two "ofthe Admiral’.-. men were
killed—that he then took posssession of these
two vessels ; and we have since learned that
they were both ransoiried, the former for 2000
dollars and the latter 3000 dollars.
_ , Another letter says,—-‘ I have learnt that
Guise has left Callao for Truxillo, for provis-
ions; that he threatened the Providence and
China,_iftliey entered Callao in his absence,
he would make prizes ofthem. After his_de-
partttre, all the vessels went in, landed their
cargoes, left their captains, and went to Val-
paraiso, for the Franklin, 74.

Several slavc-holders have recently remo-
ved from Missouri with their slaves. The
reason assigned is that the climate is too cold
for their profitable employtnent. The Nat.
Int. remarks that North and West ofthe line
which bounds the successful cultivation of su-
gar, rice, and tobacco, slave labor will always
be a tax rather than a profit to the proprietor.
It will not long continue to be employed
where it ceases to be profitable. This has
been realized in the Eastern states, where
slavery formerly prevailed, and, being first
greatly diminished by the exportation ofslaves
to the south, was finally abolished by setting
free all who should thereafter arrive at a cer-
tain age. In Delaware, Maryland, and part
ofVirginia, this process has evidently coni-
menced, and the number of slaves is dimin-
ishing, by their transportation to the south.
" Having lreretol'ore had occasion to mention
the state of Mr. Secretary Crawford’s health,
it may be proper to say, that he removed,witli
his family, yesterday, to a country residence,
three miles from the City; that lie is rapidly
recovering, and expects to set outin a day or
two on ajourney, from which _the complete
re-establishment of his health is confidently

LIBRARY REGULATIONS.
THE Subscriber is under the necessity of
informing those who are in the habit of
receiving Books from the Bookstore af‘ld'Ll-
brary to read, that in future the price will in-
variably be fixed at so much per volume, (ac-
cording to size) for oncdreadingthrough, and
in any case "where a" volume is kept’ over
oneweelr, an extra charge, in proportion, will
be made. The frequent instances in which
his Books have beeukept out for a considera-
ble length of time, and have passed through
various hands, witli'a competrsation to him,
perhaps of .for only once reading, renders a
scrupulous observanceof these rules absolute-
ly necessary. Payment must also be made
either when the Books are taken out, or when
returned, except in cases where accounts may
be open with him. P. PRICE.
