Tm: Pni«:siDi~:i~t'r‘s FISCALXTY.-—Ofllte mer-
t its or ‘demerits of this scheme we do not feel
competent very fully to speak. The efligy
given in the message. has not been commented
upon to any considerable extent by the press.
The notices of it, so far as we have seen, have
been either equivocal and timid. or ttfa very
so so character. 0!‘ its reception at the capital
but little has come down to us in it reliable and
authentic shape. A degree ofisilence and tin-
certainty broods over the matter. w-liich we are
int:lined'to look upon as the calm that precedes
the tempest. Some of the more intelligent
letter writers have given it as their opinion. that
the whigs of congress could not, and would not
give it their support, and that the sclietne
would fall through. Vllhatever may be the
ultimate conclusion oftlte majority of the whig
members of congress, we do not expect to see
ati entire.tinityofopiniori in its favor. A portion,
-i least, ofthe wliigs, will vote against it. and
here is no reason to expect anything from the
ocofocos btit opposition. Against this combin-
ed strength. then, there can be bill a faiiit hope
of the success of the project. Our own opinion
is, the bill as submitted by the Secretary of
the Treasury. will be essentially modified in
committee. Those who look witlijealousy upon
measures in tlieiiiselves calculated to increase
executive power. or such as invite to the abuse
of executive license, will look with suspicion
upon the bill in its present form.
\Vliate\-‘er fate awaits it at the hands ofcon-
grcss, we are not sorry that the perfecing and
finishing of the scheme has been committed to
such liatids as for the most part compose the
select committee—ilie especial friends of the

THE CREOLE MUTINY.
The New Orleans Advertiser of the 8th
contains the protest of the Otiicers and crew of
the brig Creole against the “winds and waves
and the danger of the sea generally, but more
especially against the instirrection of the nine-
teen Slaves and the illegal action ofthe British
autliorities at Nassau in regard to the remainder
of the Slaves oti board said vessel.” The
Protest recounts all the particulars oftlie muiiriy
which, as we have already given, we shall
not repeat. Only uiiieieen of the slaves bad
part in the mutiny; the rest were afraid of then‘
and remained forward ofthe mainmast.
The occurrences after reaching Nassau have
not been so generally published. The oflicer,
Gifibrd, called upon the Governor ufthe Baha-
mas who, at his request sent a guard of twenty
four negroe soldiers on the ship to keep the
Slaves and cargo on Board. Cupt, Fitzgerald
who cotiiinauded the troops, told the slaves they
were very foolish in not killing all the whites
on board. On the 10th of October three magis-
trates came on board and exaniincil all the
while persons. The vessel was surrounded by
l)o,'_i|s filled with men armed Wiiii clubs. The
nineteen were taken into custody and the
Attorney General said to the others. ‘my friends
you have been detained a short time on board
the Creole for the purpose of ascertaining the
individuals who were concerned in’, this mutiny
and murder. They have been identified and
will be detained, the rest ofyou are free and
at liberty to go on shore and where you please.’
Then addressing the prisoners, he said ‘men.
there are nineteen ofyou who have been iden-
tified as having been engaged in the, murder
place here or clsewlierc.’
Mr.
tested against allowing the arrried boats to come
along aside and the slaves to go ashore. The
Attorney General, in reply told him that be
had better make no nbjecti.n. for if he did
there [Hl_'_{ill be bloodshed. He lli€l|\S|t‘p[)t.'ti
iiiio his boat with one of the magistrates and
withdrew into the stream. At a sitztial from
another uingistrate on board the Creole. the
armed boats came along side and the Slaves on
board got into them. Three cheers were given
and the boats went ashore. where thousands
were waiting to receive them. The uiutinecrs
were taken ashore in a barge.
On the 15_th the Attorney general wrote to
the Captain til the Creole deiiiandiiig the bag-
gnce .-fibe passengers. Gilibrd the commanding
ullicer. replied that the slaves themselves were
property, had no baggtigc. and that more over
he could land iioihiiig without a permit" from
the Custom House and an order from the
American Consul. The Attorney got the
permit. but not the order, and put an otlicer
on board the Creole who took away such
liaggrige and property as he cbo.~e to consider
as belonging to the slaves. The master of
liir Creole made no resistance.
The next day the Captain ofthe Creole pro-
posed to sell his surplus provisions to pay his
cxpeiiscs. The (lollccior oftlie Ctizstoiizs refused
to allow them to be i.‘li.lLlC(l unless the Captain
would (!nl(_'r the slaves as passengers. This
was refused. .
A plan was formed by the American Consul,
with Capt. \Voudside of the American vessel
Louisa to rescue ilic Creole from the British
officcr and take lter to Iudiaii Key, where was
a U. S. Vessel ofwar.
