Antonio. 'l‘lr‘ey were busily engaged nil
landing the ‘cargo, tilteii the U. S. brig
l£iitcrpri7'.e hove in sight, and sent her
barges to attach them. The pirates de-
fended themselves behind a 4 gtin battery,
which they liad ercctcd, but in the Clld
were forced to abandon their own vessel
and the pr izr-, and to fly for safi.-ty to the
-niountains. , This account, as given by
Gibbs, may be true, though we have no
‘distinct recollection ofsuch a circumstance.
\Vo find however, by a i'ecurreiice_t0 our
files, that a piratical sloop_and schooner,
were destroyed by the Bl‘-llISll sloop of
war Icarus, near I'Iav:iii_a, in the summer
of1824, under similar circumstances, and
that most ofthe pirates wlieu attacked by
barges, made to the shore and fled to the
woods, The sloop of war found there 12
iv.-3,3;-els which llhtl/l)€Gn burnt to the waters
edge, and it was satisfactorily ascertained
that their crews amounting to one liuiidred
and fifty persons had been niurdered.—-
There is, therefore, some reason to believe
that Gibbs may refer to this aflair, and that
the vessel was the British sloop of war a-
bove mentioned, and not the Enterprize,
as the pirates supposed at the time.

—Thc baiquc Transit, an American ves-
sel, was also captured by them, and the
S\ hole of the crew destroyed.

Ilavana was the general resort for the
,,,,.,,,,,5, in dispose of the, bounty. There
they saurrtered about without apprehen-
sion, and even lodged at the some houses
with many of the American officers who
wcieseiit out to destroy them. He states
that he was acquairited with many ofthe of-
ficers, and was apprized of all their intend-
ed movements before they left the harbor.

After their complete expulsion from
those scas, we are unadvised of the course
of Gibbs until he sailed sometime during

- the last spring for Gibraltar, and thence
to Algiers, in thehope ofgetting on board
some of the Barbary corsairs. The block-
ade oftlie liarbur by the French fleet pre-
vented the accomplisliment oftliispurpose,

do he returned by the way of Mcrsailes to
Boston. Ile embarked thence to New
Orleans, where be shipped as one of the
crew oftlie brig Vineyard.
WY: have seen two letters from liirii to
I a fiieiid, since sentence was passed upon
liiui, which evinces some anguish ofspirit,
but there is no reason to conclude that he
is so thoroughly penitent that he would
not, by the recovery of his liberty, rush
again, if he li'-rd ‘an opportunity, into the
pr;-rpetration ol similar acts of atrocity-.-
.w,,,,_,.:oy, the steward, appears to becom-
,,;,,ai;vo|y happy, and devotes the whole
of his time to a preparation for the awful
scencc that so soon awaits him. B.o.vn-
rig and Dawes, the two of the crew upon
whose testimony Gibbs and \Vansley were
convicted, were discharged byJiidgeBetts,
0,, Monday, with a solemn and impressive
admonition. .

It is hardly necessary to add, that the
story now going the rounds in the public
' prints, which first appeared in the Provi-

dciice Siibaltern, is almost eiiurcly a piece

19801]; of the Ourang 0u.tang.——-This
‘great natural curiosity died on the 17th
zrlt. ‘For two or lllrce days P"°V'°“5 he"
spirits appeared rather dull, and though
noticed, -no one dreamed that her end was
so near. Her death we may impute to a
‘complete changein her diet. She became
remarkably fond of sugar, and purlomed it
every opportunity, though tippn her arri-
val slie tuined away from it in disgust.-—
The taste which these animals acquire for
‘culilllls has proved the death of niost of
“mm, and we may not be much It) error
.in attributing-her'd'ec'ease to the same cause.
As before stated, she was quiteyoung, and

perhaps required a m_otlier’s kindness arid

are to nurse her. Her features were dis-
Izvustingly like the human, and this likeness

its icy hands upon her poor body. Our

BANKQUESTION IN Pi3N.\'si'v.iNi.i.-'I‘lie
following resolution was passed unanim-
ously in the Senate of Peniisylvani-.1:-—
“That whereas the Bank of ilie United
States has tended in so great a degree to"
maintain a sound and uniform _currenc_v ;
to facilitate the financial opperatioris oftlie
government; to regulate foreign and do-
mestic exchange, and has been so condu-
cive to commercial prosperity, that the
Legislature ofI’ennsylvaiii.r reconiinwdcd
a renewal of its charter, under such regu-
laiioiis and restrictions as to the power of
the respective states asCongress may deem
right and proper."

On Saturday last, it was adopted in the
house of representatives, by a vote of 75

Gray Ilairs no Protection l—--A vote-
ran soldier who had received his semi-an-
iiual pension in this ci y, a few days since,
and was returning home, stopped for the
night at Gibson's Tavern, Canibrirlgeport.
At the same house appeared also a lad who
represented himself as entirely destitute of
money, and dependent upon charity for a
singlc meal. The feeling old soldier pitied
his iiecessiiies, generously paid for his sup-
per and lodging, and went to bed in the
same room. Ill“*~lie morning he found the
ungrateful boy liful robbed him of his forty
eight dollars, being all the money he had,
and taken French leave. The landlord,
greatly to his credit, on being apprised of
the villany, iriiinediately set offin pursuit,
and succeeded in apprehending the rogue
in Boston, at the motncrit of his stepping
into a coach for Providence.

Another gray haired pensioner was also
robbed in Cambridgepofta lasl Week; Ol

man, who was afterwards detected, and

Sir-—-On my return to this city yesterday
from Washington, my atteiition has been
called to various notices in the public prints
of an “angry corrcspoiidenci2,” which is
slated to have lately taken place between
General Jackson and myself, and which is
supposed to have had some conrrcxiuii with
ilie controversy between lllCl.)l‘('.SltlL‘ll[:1ll(l
Vice President. In one of the versions
of this story, it is asserted that Gciieral
Jackson returned one of my letters ll']'rln-
swered, with the word “iiisolr:rit” writlcn
upon it. To put an end to these niisri:p-
reseulations, it is proper tliatI should state,
that no correspondenrc has ever taken
place between General Jackson nurl myself
ofaii unfriendly characn-r, or’ liavi-rg the
reniotest connexion with his ‘c0ati'o\'orsy
willi Mr. Calhoun—‘~and that lie has nev-
er returned any letter addi'csscd to him by
me, either with or without an eiidorsciiront
—-nor have I any reason to br--lit-ve that he
has treated with the slightest disrcs, or t any
coniniunication which I have ever made
liiiii-and it is certain that I have made
none of a disrespectful cliaracter-, or which
would justify such treatment on his part.
ROBERT Y. HAYNE.
.—€*

From the VVasliingt'on Globe.
Recently it has been stated in the U. S.
Telegraph, that the appeal_of Mr. Calhoun
to the public, previous to it publication,
had been submitted to-, and approved by a
cuiifidential friend oftlle President. The
allusion is to myself. I perceive not the
force of the argument which would make
this circrinistance to operate beneficially or
otherwise ; but as it has been mentioned,
I take occasion to present the agency par-
ticularly thatI had in this business, and
how and why it was occasioned.

Previous to the publication being made,
I received a request from Mr. Grundy t'o
see me. I afforded him the interview he
sought. He informed me the Vice Presi-
dent had concluded certainly to make pub-
lication of the correspondence ; and that
his (Mr. G’s) great anxiety was, that the
appeal intended to accompany it should be
so framed, that the President might feel,
himself culled upon, by any thing it should
contain, to offer a reply. Ifthe President
should adopt this course, be entertained
the opinion that the matter would soon
pass away, and every thing of party excite-
merit be avoided. Such was the nature of
our conversatioii, and I readily accorded
with him in his frank desire. r -
, Mr. Grundy expressed the npinim, that
Itwould be in his power to obtain the 3,.
seat of the Vice President to showlme tho
remarks which Mr. Calhoun intended to
prcscutto the public. Shortly after dark,
the next evening, I went to his lodgings.
yrtrriving, I was told by the .servant at the

Sunday iiight; last-. The Engineer was
aivaliened about midiiight by a bright
light shining in his eyes from the deck.
Hc roused the crew of the boat, when it
was discovered that the kitchen on the
guard, was burning fiercely-. From the
kitchen the fire was communicated to the
wood piled against it, and in a few niin- .-
utes more would have spread over the
deck and become inextinguisliable-. By
great exertions the fire was soon got
under. The partition of the kitchen was
burned entirely through; and the lions-
ing of the boiler, distant 6 or 8 feet was
so heated that the paint blistered, and
the boards warped very much. The
loss of this fine boat would have been
very serious to the Company and deeplv
regretted by the community. It is not
known how the fire caught. Theda-
mage was very iiicoiisiderable, but the
danger escaped was very great. .
