F.xtraet from die log-book ot the >c 100 1
er Emily Capt. Robhiss, arrived here yes
terday from Matai.z .s Uec. 12th. f«e*
ac r ou it, at 1 P. M.
in company, half a mile eastern, saw a snia..
schooner 2 miles to leeward, supposed a
drogher from llavanna ;at2 P- J! 1 *,";
10 miles from Matan/ is, standing N. F- >’
E. close hauled, the Mary-Rose di.iant o 4
mile, observed the schooner winch hail
then got in our ‘.vase, to tack, which caused
suspicion that she was a piratical cruz.ei.
At hall past 2 the Mary-Ro-e hove 100 ; the
schooner then cime alongside and sent a
h with 10 men on bo«is*cl llio M* took
possession ot her, and stood in foi the land.
After the boat left her for the Mary-Rose,
she gave chase to us, and we bserv-d her ap
parently full of men. Ai SP. M they fired
a musket at us, wc hove 100, when we were
hailed and ordered to lower ourloresail ; we
were then boarded by 2 men aimed wuh
iTiuskets, cutlasses aid knives, driven i.-to
the cabin, and confined, t hey llion made
sail on the aohcontr for the sliore, the pi
rate in company. The ciew aopeared to be
Spaniards. After being confined for a short
lire, one of the pirates, who spoke good
English, came below and demand- d of C.ipt.
Robbins the money on board. Gap*. R. re
plied there was none ; to which the pirate
retorted, “ unless sou deliver all the money
you have, your coll'ee shall lie taken and
your vessel burnt,” and then lelt us, in a
state easier imagined than described, ex
pecting nothing short of death Shortly ut
ter he returned and ordered the captain and
crew, six in number, and a French gentle
man (passenger) on deck; immediately on
reaching the deck we were driven forward
and confined in the forecastle, af'er beating
us w.tii their muskets and pricking us with
dirks ; we found the forecastle pillaged of
every thing and the people’s cheats broken
open. In die mean time they plundered
the cabin of every article of value, breaking
open every chest, trunk, Ac. and strewing
die ar ides about in search of money. About
4 I*. VI. they opened the sc;i tie anti ordered
the captain and passenger on deck, as we
supposed to be murdered, securing the
scuttle afterwards so light as nearly to pro
duce suffocation, and placing two centinels
n. »;• it with drawn sabres, to prevent our
rising. After keeping us confined in this
manner until 8 P M. we were ordered on
deck to take in sail and let go the anchor,
distant about 1-2 mile from land, which
from appearance was the extreme ea t point
of Matanxas harbor.
The pirates informed us they had let the
Mary-Rose go. l'heir schooner bein near,
the captain of this banditti ordered her a
long side of us, had her made fast, unstowed
our boat, broke open our hatches, and com
pelled our crew to pass the coffee from the
hold to their vessel t of 212 bags which we
hail onboard, they robbed us of 210. During
our co fiueineiit in the forecusde, tiiey twice
hung Capt, Robbins hy the neck, in order to
exiot't confession ; and whilst we were pac
ing out coffee the four commanders of this
gang of robbers, which consisted of from 25
too') in number, were beating hint most
unmercifully with their swords. After the
whole crew hail satisfied themselves with
heating Capt. It. and that there was no in ney
except £344, which they had- taken, having
plundered the cabin of every thing, they
sent for the cook (a b.ack) to come into the
cabin. They,after demMiding ofhiin whore
the money was, beat Inm most cruelly with
their swords, and let him go. The mate was
then brought forth; six swords pointed at
his breast, threatened wilh instant death ;
the same demands made, and after beating
him so severely as scarcely to leave him able
to stir, let go, and sent again to assist in get
ting out c iffee. After plundering us of eve
ry thing tiiey c-uld find of any value, and
ripping off'the ceiling, in search ofin.mey,
they cut our cable, then about 20 luthoms
out, and ordered us io steer to the north
ward, for it we returned to Mutai.zas, and
wire again captured by them, death should
be our portion : having plundered us of 210

“ We arrived here, after a rat tier rough
passage, in eighteen days from Boston, all
well. We expect to sail again in two or
three dais. \Ve found here the piratical
ship which robbed die Orleans Packet. She
is now in possession of the Swedish govern

following manner: I'he crew landed her
cargo on a small island near this, from
whence it was taken by a schooner to St.
Thomas; they then run the ship into Five
Island Harbor, where all the crew, except
two men deserted Iter. I'he government,
hearing of her being there, sent a guard
and took possession of her, brought her in
to this harbor, and confuted the t *o men in
her as pirates. It is said, Capt. Elton lias

We know not w net tier the Delaware Patriot
intended the following as a quiz ; but it is
given by that paper as a serious fact. We
shall only observe, that the Legislature
and its interpreters might both have avo d
ed this farce, if instead of Jtejicitur , &c. —
the bill had been endorsed ‘ Kejectus* (li

(lex being understood) —the perfect par

From the Delaware Patriot.
Extract from the Jownal of the Senate of Dela
ware.
Mr. , a member of the House of Repre
sentatives being a Knitted, returned tnc re
solution, refusing to receive any petition,
“unless notice thereof should be given six
weeks previous to the meeting of the Legis
lature, in some public newspaper, printed
in the state, and lor other purposes,” and
informed the senate that the house of repre
sentatives had endorsed upon the said reso
lution, the words “ Jtejicitur runtime contru-
Uicenle,” and he withdrew.
After some debate, and much conjecture
concerning the meaning of the above en
dorsement, it was at length, on motion by
Mr. ,
Devolved , That two interpreters of pro
found erudition be appoi ted for the pur
pose of affording the senate some explana
tion, if possible, of the above mysterious
language.
On motion, of Mr. , was appointed
teller—Whereupon the senate proceeded to
ballot for interpreters; and John Fisher and
Alexander L. Hayes, Esqs. were duly cho
sen.
Ordered, That the interpreters be inform
ed of their appointment, and that they be
requested to attend the senate chamber in
five minutes.
At the expiration of the time the inter
preters were admitted; and being duly
sworn to translate and explain faithfully ac
cording to the best of their judgment, the
words endorsed on the resolution above
mentioned, took their seats on the speak
er’s right hand
John Fisher, F.sq. then delivered bis opin
ion as follows : He believed the words“ Ke
jicitur neniiue r.ontradice te,’ to be Latin,
and he thought that they imported that ‘the
resolution was nnani uusly rejected.’ He
question, hew ever, Hie correctness of the
word ‘rejicihir,’ as here used. II it were to
he considered is a veil) personal, which he
doubted, it must agree with tin; word ‘ Re
solution ;’ if it be a verb impersonal, it can
of course have no nominative case, accord
ing to the rule veibum impersonate habet nul
lum person um. lie: did not believe that the
Latin was that of the Augustan age. He
further stated the words ‘nemine eontradia
cente’ were rather ambiguous in their signi
fication, and might, perhaps, mean either
‘gainsaying the passage of the resolution, or
gainsaying the rejection of it.’ But he was
of opinion that the intended import of the
words here used was that the resolution
was ‘rejected, no one dissenting,’ or ‘unani
mously.’
A. L. Ifayes, Esq. after a profound exam
ination of the endorsement, concurred in the
opinion of his colleague, that the true mean
ing and intent of the words are that the
resolution is rrjeced, no one dissenting.
The learned interpreters then laid on the
table the following account, ltd withdrew:

The case of die Commonwealth of Virgin
i t against John Preston, the iate Treasurer,
and his securities for the year 1819, which
had occupied the Ueue.al Court six:sen
days, was determined on Tuesday evening
m tin ur of the Commonwealth. The fol
lowing is thekerdict of the Jury :
“ We of tlif; Jury find for the plaintiff a
gainst the defendant John Preston on the
w it of eiiqury, anil against the other defen
dants on the-issues joined, and assess the
plaintiff’s damages at {§87,58738 cents, be
ing the principal sum due, with interest
thereon, at tile rate of six per centum per
annum, from the 31st day of January 1820,
till paid.”
Besides thq above sum there was a fur
ther deficient' of more than §sl,* J in the
Treasurer’s alcount, for w Inch the securi
ties of 1819, >re not held liable. For this
sum the Coiifnonwealth must look to Mr.
Preston hintsilf.
It will be fecollected that Mr. Preston
conveyed all its property to trustees for the
purpose ofincj ninytying the Commonwealth
and Ins securities. Near 24,U1/0 dollars have
aheady been laid into the Treasury by the
trustees; audits the property Vet unsold is
valued at non j §200,000, it is believed that
neither the Cdnuionwealth or Mr. Preston's
securities wilt finally lose much, if any thing.
