I lime would be accorded to act upon this very
pirate-shad murdered the crew of a vessel
for our officers to exert, he wr-ttltl state to the
ouse. how those piratical expeditions are
rzonducted. A coasting vessel sails for Ha-
vana or Matanzas. raving only fotrr or five
men to navigate her, in order to elude suspi-
'cion. On the coast she isjoined by men who
put off i-u boals and canoes, armed with the
only weapon ofthe pirate, tltedagger. Thus
Vqtlippetl, they attack the first vessel tltey fall
in with, plttndcr and bttrn her, and murder
her crew. The pirates then land, attd make
the best oftheir way to Havana or Matauzas,
where they give due ttoticc to the merchants.
Vessels are then cleared otrt coastwise, with
permits for the very goods plnndercrl. They
proceed totlre hiding places of the pirates,
take itt the goods, and enter the ports of Ha-
vana or Mat-anzas. lVith the conrtivance ol
the ctrstouthouse officers, they are l:mded,sern
to the stores, atnl publicly sold. With a sys-
tem tllnts organized, the instant ottr squadrons
are withdrawn, piracy will be renewed.

important subject. He was the more anx-
§mts,on account ofan article he had this day
read in a southern paper. Ol‘l‘t‘\_~Iatan7.:ts, the
vrecked on one of the Keys. These infernal
monsters had murdered men without the hope
‘ofplttnder-—merely to wreak their vengeance
on the enemies of Spain, It ought, however,
to be distinctly understood, that the Creoles
‘of Cttba were innocent ofthese att'ocities.—-
Their hands were not stained with the blood
‘of our citizensf They were not polluted
with the bribes of'pirates. They did rtot profit
by this most infamous traffic. He moved a
re erence.-————'.\Ir. Forsytlt stated, that, by
a former t'esolution, ittforinatiou on this sub-
.jcct ltad been requested, bttt ltad not yet been
reifoived ; and he thought it useless to tnove
arty furtlter until this ir_tfortnation should be
received. He objected to the resolution be-
cause it would tttake the domiuions over
which the Captain General presided respon-
sible, which could only be done by an appeal
to the King ofSpain himself. He moved to
lay tlte resolution on the table, and to print it ;"
which was agreed to.
In the Senate on Tuesday, Mr. Cobb pre-
sented the petition of William Dixon, ofLiv-
erpool, a subject ofhis Britatrnic iVl:rjesty,aud
Jas. Dixon, of Savannah, a citizen ufthc U.

so much ofthe proceeds of said rttercltandise
"as was paid into the Treasury, may be restor-
'cd to thetn. Mr. Smith presented the rue-
ttrorial ofJohn Prentiss, representing that he
has invented an improved plan for Ittrilrlitrg
walls under'water, which is ofthe greatest im-
portance in the constrtrction and repair ofcer-
taiu fortifications, of all dry docks, of bridges.
He recommends it to the patronage oflthe
government, on the score of economy, of de-
spatch, of strength, and of durability, and
prays Congress to take the subject ittto con-
sideration, and adopt such measures thereon,
as in their wisdom may seem fit. It was re.
ferrcd to the Cotnmittee on Naval Aflirirs, to
consider and report thereon.
The Senate resumed the consideration of
the tttotion to reverse the report of the com-
mittee adverse to the petition of Ebenezer
Oliver and others, which, after sotne debate,
was carried, and the bill was recommitted
with instrrtcthrus to report a bill for the relief

Inthe House, the General Appropriation

John Caldwell Calhoun, of S. C. having re-

Senate then retired, and the hall was cleared
of all spectators. The roll ofthe House was
then ca‘lletl by states, and the tnembers took
tlteir seats in the order irt which they were
called, every member being present, except
Mr. Garnett, ofVa. who was confined to his

The ballot boxes were then presented to

Gt-‘.-.\"t‘Lt-‘.Mr‘.N: In rtpei-vin<_v_ this testirnonial
from the Reptesentzljves ofthe People. and
States oftltis Unitm,I attr deeply sensible of
the circttrnstattces t tlet' Wlliclt ll ll-15 bt~‘€I1
given. All tny Pred tessors in the high. sta-
tion to ultich the fa wt: of the House now calls
me, have been honogd with rnajorities ofthe
electoral voices in tlfir pr-iutary colleges. It
has been my forturg to be placed, by the di-
visions of sentitneti [,)I'€\'tlllltl‘_{ among our
cottrrtrytnen on tltis'ccasiorr, in competition,

low citizens, alljtr. yertjoying, in eminent.
degrees, the prtbliclvor ; 34. of whose worth,
talents, and scrvir-es,o one entertains a high-

The nattres of two it them were, in the fulfil-
ment ofthe provisios ofthe constitution,pre-
sentcd to tho sr.-lectlin ofthe House, in con-
ctrrrence with my on ; names, closely asso-
ciated with the clot oftlte nation,and one of
theur, further recor mended by a larger rui-
nor.ity ofthe prima.-y electoral srtfi"ragr2s than
mine. In tlriistatc oftltings, could tny
refusal to accept tie trust thus delegated to
me, tzive an itnnt liate opportunity to the
people to form anoto express with a nearer
approach to unauiu_'ity,tlte ohjectofthoir pre-
ferertre,’ I should jot ltesitate to decline the
acceptance ofthis eluinent cltar::e,anrl to sub-
rnit the decision ofthis tnomentous question
again to their deternrination. But the cou-
stitution itself, has not so disposed ofthe con-
tingency which would arise in the. event ofrny
refusal ; I shall, therefore, repair to the post
assigtted me by thi call of my country, signi-
fied thro’ her conslitrttiottal organs; oppressed
with the. magniturle oftlte task before me, bttt
cheered with the hope of that generous sup-
port from my fellow citizens, which, in the
vicissitudes of a life devoted to their service,
has never failed til sustain nte.—--confident in
the trust, that tltclwisdntn of the Legislative
Councils will guide and direct me in the path
ofrny official duty,antl relying, above all, up-
on the sttperiutentling Providence ofthat Be-
ing “ in whose hand our breath is, and whose
are all otrr ways.”-,,-———-Gentlemen: I pray
you to make acceptable to the House, the as-
surance of my gratitude for their confide-.nce,
and to accept yourselves my thanks for the
friendly terms irt which yott have comrnrtni-
cated to rue tltcir decision. J. Q. ADAMS.
Public Dimzerto Gen. Jackson.-—Al'ter the.
result ofthe Pres'yleutialE|ectiou was known.
several ofthe disappointed friends ofJack-
son, who had astembled at W'ash'ington with
the expectation of seeing him e.lected.to the
Presidency, prtrposerl to give hint a public
dinner. In actbpting their invitation the
Geueral gave them some good advice which
we here insert. /“ I cannot (said he) refrain
from sttggcstittgto my friends the necessity of
forbearing to cottfer upon tne,a'. this rnotnent,
any such promirlcnttnark ofrcgatd, as it rtray
be viewed as cimveying with it exception,
nntrmuring, and feelings of complaint in re-
gard to the latetelection, which I sincerely
hope do not belong to any oftny friends.”
Daring Robber]/.—Ort the 9th inst. at Phil-
adelphia, a robbery was committed very situ-
ilar to the one cnmtttitted itt N.Y. a few weeks
since ttpott Mr. Gasner’s broker’s office. At
2 o’clock, P. M.two fellows entered the Bro-
ker-’s Office of Mr. Alexander Benson, on
Tltird-st. artd cotnmitted a robbery ofaltnost
unparallelled arrdacity. Soon after the men
entered, one of tltcttt asked Mr. Benson to
give hitn a ten dollar note in exchange for ten
dollars in silver. Mr. Benson counted the
money and found there was but nine dollars
and a ltalf. The rnau.put his hand into his
pocket as ifto dtaw ortt another ltalf dollar, $1.
Mr. Benson turned round to get the ten dol-
lar note. At tllis ntornertt he received a blow
on the side of ltis head, and fell senseless on
the floor. On recovering, he fouttd the fel-
low who strucla the blow standing over ltirrr,
and ltlsmvtt ha filled with money. This he
pushed under tlle counter. Just at tbisinstant
Mr. Lamb, the President of the Mechanics’
Bank, enteretlltlre office, and was sztluted by
the villain witlra blow on the side ofthe ltead.
Mr. Lamb staggered, brrt did not fall. Then
he attempted to seize the villian,bt,r"t the latter
drew a dirk, plclled up his hat in which he
ltad pttt a quartlity of tnoncy. and escaped.-
Tite fellow wlnl stood over r‘lIr.lBertson, Mr.
Latnb mistook,lfo_r a clerk itt the ofrice,and in
the conlitsion ofthe tnotnettt he escaped also.
Both fled, andtltough the alarm was immedi-
ately given, they were not overtaken. The
money stolen consisted of 3,100 dollars in
New Hope notes, and about 32,000 in current
notes of different banks. The New Hope
notes are all registered in the narrte of Mr.
Benson, at the bank, and will, it is hoped,lead
to a detection of the scoundrels. The blind-
geon, with which Mr. Benson was struclt,was
wrapped up inia handkerchief, which has, on
irtspcctiort been pronounced a “ New-York
hatnlkert'ltief.” It is deposited at the Mayor’s
office. The villain had no doubt been watch-
iug for a suitable opportunity to couturit the
robbery, choosing that tiute ofday when the
neighbors were. absent at dinner, and the mo-
ment that Mr. Benson was left . alone tn the
oliice, having despatched his assistants on dif-
ferent errands.

Election qf President.-—-This week we
have the high‘ gratification of announcing to
ottr readersthe interesting fact that the Presi-
dential election is over, and that JOHN Qum-
CY ADAMS, tl;-.man ofour choice, and em-
phatically the candidate ofthe people, and of
the rtatiop, (whatever may be said to the cort-
rrary_b_y intriguing, interested, ofiice-seeking
politicians, and their adhert-.nts,) has succeed-
ed totlre ofiiceto which his superior taleuts,his
long experience, and his ttrrbletnishetlclt2frac-
ter so eminently entitlcrl him. This pleasing
event is tltusappropriately and very band-
sotnely aunottnced by the editor of the Na-
tional Journal :—~-
. I
‘. We offer our sr_ncer-eand hearty congratu-
lations to the nation, upon the resultof the
Presidential election. Tire event which all
parties deprecated, and wished to avoid, oc-
curred yesterday—-an election of President
by the House of Representatives; but, as we
had expected, it was decided by a single bal-
lot, artd with the dignity and decorum becom-
ing that august body, on so motnentous an
occasion. Indeed we can conceive of no
spectacle more gratrtl——no scene more impos-
tng—no crrctrntstauce more grattfytug,l to an
American citizen, and lover ofour republican
institutions, than this, when the’ Representa-
tives oftlre nation assetnbled, and, agreeably
to the Consttttttion and laws oftheir country,
selected and proclaimed the first officer ofthe
Union-—there was no exciteruent, no expres-
sion of drsappotuttt'tettt ; but all appeared
cheerfully to acquiesce, when the Speaker de-
clared JOH_N QUINCY ADAMS to be duly
elected President-q/' the United States for four
years frotn the fourth day Q/'.March rtext.’
The following is a statement oftlte votes
ofthe states which produced this result :—
For Jllr. ufldams.-—Maine, New Hampshire,
Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut,
Vermont, New York, Maryland, Ohio, Ken-
tucky, Illinois, Missouri. and Louisiana.
For Gen. Jack.son.——New J ersey, Pennsyl-
vania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Alabama,
Mississippi, and Indiana.
For Mr. Crau_tfurd.——Delaware, Virginia,

notwithstanding his avowal iii the House, of
his readiness to ttteet a cotnmittee of investi-
gallon, and of his ability to establish the truth
oftlte charges against Mr. Clay, contained in
the letter referred to in the Speaker’s appeal
to the House, refuses to acknowledge the art-
tltorrty ofthe Committee to question him, or

S,nrzm'sh .flg'gr'esst'on.—'In rt comtnunication
'0 Congress, the Secretary of State rernarks,
that the capture ofthe brig James Lawrence,
‘lay :1 Spanish {Porto Rico) privateer, was a
flagrant Outrage rtpon the property of the
citizens oftlte U. States, upon which the ex-
ecutive governtnent ofthe U. States have, for
the last three years constantly applied for rep-
aration equally strenuous and unavailing ;—
that the capture in the first instance, was ille-
gal, and that the proceedings of the court of
appeals, condemning the property, were ir-
regular, cannot be doubted. A last appeal to
tltejustice ofhis Catholic Majesty at Madrirl,
is all that rentains practicable in this case,
short of measures which,by autlrorising repri-
sols, would assuure upon the Urtited States
thcrnselves the task of dispensing to their cit-
izens that justice which has bitlrerto been
sought frotn the Spanish authorities in vain .”
The canditforz and prospects of Emigrants‘
to Hayti.--The Rev. Luring D. Den-oy has
addressed a letter to the editors of the N. Y.
Observer, dated Sarnaua, Jan.6, in wlrich,af-
rer mentioning the favorable passage out of
the ship which took the last entigrartts to Hav-
ti, and the good health ofall ofthem, he says,
“ Never were emigrants furnished with such
advantages. Most bountifully supplied on the
passage——houses to receive them on their ar-
rival--lands partly cultivated given to them
-—four months provisiorts dealt ortt to thel‘.t—
trtedicine and medical attendance ftrrnislted
gratis——a people standing with open arms to
receive them; a most fruitful soil yielding the
most profitable productions-—all this they have
and Isec it with my own eyes. What is pre-
sented to tltcrn in this Peuinsttla is invalua-
ble. While capable of supporting a popula-
tion offib, or 30,000, it contains btrt 700,-be-
sides the ernigrants, and the government is
anxious to have it filled with Americans. At
the saute tittte, the other parts of the Island
are open for them, and many houses have
been built expressly for their reception.‘ If
the other places where they have gone are
like. this. and I ltave no doubt they are, it) all
irnportattt respects, there was nothing held
otrt to the coloured people, by citizen Gran-
ville, which they do not realize. Facts shew
that sincerity was in every word, and hardly
the half was told. It-lras delighted me to see
the satisfaction the emigrants have expressed.
They are constantly rendering thanks to God
for the. providence that has given them this
land of prottrise. I have met with only three
or fotrr who are dissatisfied, and these proba-
bly would bc contented nowhere,or had fortn-
cd most unreasonable ‘expectations.
I will new state sotne of the arlvarttagcs
presented to the emigrants. I. Iltave said
the soil is most fruitful ; it'is literally so, and
you can hardly imagine the luxuriance ofthe
l'oil.rge oftlte trees and plains. 2. The emi-
grants cart go immediately upon their own
land, which is most faitltfully given tlretn, or
they can go on to government lands, or lands
ofindividuals ; which are more improved than
their own, and furnished with houses lsnstock
at a very fair‘ rent,or for one half the produce.
[ftltey rettt lands, it does not prevent them fr.
receiving their own from goverrrtncnt at arty
rirtre when they choose to occupy them. The
opportunity to rent is a great advantage for
those who are not able to stock their own
land, as after a year or so, it will enable them
to do it.

ted with the tnodeofcultlvatiori is sent to in-

es to which they are liable, after they become
prosperotts citizens, are not burthensome,——
opportunities to dispose of ‘their produce are
very favotrrable,—-tltey are exalted togtheir
rights as rtten, and will immediately in this
part, as the natives are few, be called to share
the offices of government. Preparations are
also making to furnish them with schools, and

and so far as I have been able to observe, the
natives are perfectly liberal, and there is no
catholic priest here at present. With indus-

rise to aflinence,and to the possession ofevery
thing requisite to their happiness here and
