The two ringleader# and ch;ef promoters of the insurrection, Rod and Lugot, had suddenly disappeared, and the infe rior leaders had either sought safety in flight, or asked pardon. From the Norfolk Herald. PIRACY AND MURDER. The brigantine Crawford, Captain Henry B ightman, belonging to Troy,(Massachusetts,) sailed from Matanzas, on the 28lh ull. with a cargo for New York, and eight passengers, four of whom, (a Frenchman anil ihrec Spanish sailors) on the first of June, about midnight rose upon the Captain, crew, and remaining passengers, mid slaughtered all except three, viz. the mate, Mr. Edmund Dobson, of Somer set, Mass, the cook, and a French gentlem ti, passenger. They also stabbed the mate, hut lie having ran aloft, where ho remained during the nigh’, they spared his life in consideration of the assistance he might render them as a navigator. After completing their bloody and revolting task, the Frenchman took the com mand of the vessel, destroyed her papers anti colors, and substituted a complete set of Span ish papers which they had brought on ‘board w.th them, purporting that the vessel was Span ish and that she had cleared at Matanzas for Hamburg. Aware that it would be necessary to increase their s;ock of provisions for a Europe an voyage, they tried to get iu.o St. M uy’s to o!> i n suppl es, but the wind setting them off, they were unable to fetch into a port until they made the Capes of Virginia, which they did on Tuesday morning when they were hoarded hv a pilot,'who understanding their object to be to ohitiin provisions with the least possible de- lav, advised them ‘O pu: in ai Old Point Com fit. i as the most convenient place, and i.V-y ac cordingly anchored there about six o’clock on Tuesday evening. Mr. Dobson, ihc mate, from whom the fore- go'ti!; particulars aro obtained, states that on anchoring, the piru’e captain ordered Imn to h vo the boat lowered and brought alongside, ss he intended to go ashore at the Point.' lie accord ugly got into the boat, mid as soon as she Wes lowered to llto water, ho c ist off the te;>- clcs, se zed an oar and sculled away for the shore, the pirate calPng after him and ask ing if he wore going to betray him? On bind ing, the mate related the above particulars to several of the officers of the Fortress, who were for some time douhiful its to the proba bility of the story; hut mi his mentioning that the name of the vessel on the stern had been obliterated. Captain Dana ordered a boat and rowed ofl’to the vessel to ascertain if such was the fact. Before he had reached the vessel, however, lie was hailed from her by the pilot, an ' -nformed that the pirate captain had rut his throat. The three Spaniards had a little before by some finesse, pot possession of a boat from a ite.ghhorlnB vessel, and made their es cape to the Ebzabeth City shore, where due d.l genre has been used to effect sheir appre hension. oCapi. Dana and his boat’s crew boarded the vessel and kept possession of her tin: 1 six* was delivered over to the custody of Mr. Wes;wood, the custom house officer at H nnpton, to whom Col. Gratiot in the first in- si litre had sent information, and she has been sen> op to Norfolk. An inquest was held on the body of the pirate captain, (whose name w is believed from his papers, to have been Atcraiuler Tardy,) which was the next morn ing in.erred on the beach. Of the victims of tho blood thirsty monsters who wrought this horrible catastrophe, .he fol lowing particulars are obtainned from Mr. Dob. son, the mate of the Crawford. Captain Henry Brightman, of Troy Massa chusetts, stabbed and thrown overboard. An* Bi.hidl, seaman of Connecticut, shot and thrown overboard. Joseph DdUictr, seaman, of Salem, Massa. chusetts, throat cut and thrown overboard. Oliver Potter, seaman,of Westport, Massa chu.-etts, stubbed desperately, but escaping from his butchers, ran up the mast head, where he remained, until exhausted by the loss of blood he fell to the deck aud expired. Nathan ——, seaman, jumped overboard- aud W'<s somm,me afterwards heard callingfoi a plank or barrel to be thrown to him; but tho demons regarded him not. Mr. Norman llobinsan, of Connecticut, pas seiner, and part owner of thy cargo, jumped out of the cab : n window and was drowned. An Irishman, [name not recollected] mur- doted while Ivmg in Ins birth. An American, a carpenter by trade, .front PrOv.denre, Rhode Island, who had been fol lowin' his business for so ve time at Mutanzus, was killed and thrown overboard. lieve in his innuccuce: yet ho was swung into eternity, by the management of the guilty Tar dy, who had the advantage of a white face, to sacrifice the black conk. . Wo hear next of Tardy on board the Boston packet-schooner Regulator, then commanded by captain Presburv Norton. Tardy took passage at Boston for Philadelphia, tinder the title of Dr. Tardy, and, on the passage poison was again resorted to. One evening, after sup per, all in the cabin were taken violently sick excepting Tardy, who had always declined us* ingsugar from liis first going on board, (that no doubt being part of bis plan.) Tardy acting is physician on the occasion, declared from the symptoms that they were poisoned; and all considered his being on board a fortunate cir cumstance, as ho was able to assist them, and actually administered medicines which wets ta ken freely. All began to recover excepting a German gentleman passenger, tvho died, and was committed to tho deep. The morning after the captain and passen gers were attacked, Tardy discovered arseti c in the sugar bowl mixed with tho sugar, and im mediately suggested his suspicions of the stew ard, (another black man) and after their arriv al in this city, the consignees immediately had an examination into the circumstance-, hut from their own and the captain’s l>no>> • edge of the steward,they doubted his gu it, and after a strict and close examination,, iliev left him at liberty. Tardy, however, persisted in his pretended belief ot the stew ard’s gu.lt, but said so much that ho excited suspicions against himself,-and afterwards in creased them by a claim he made to have all ihc effects of the deceased German pas senger, on the plea that tho gentleman had verbally given them to him just before his do- cense, in consequence of h s attentions to him. The captain did not fool authorized to deliver iItem to Tardy, and applied to his consignees, who positively refused to have them g.ven up to h tit, and were induced to set a spy over him, Who ascertained that he went with his baggage to the Mansion House Hotel in Third-street, where lie remained that night, and then remov ed to an obscure house in North Water-street, above Vine-street. Here he did not continue long before lie began to lay another plan of pi racy, to be executed on hoard one of the Rich mond Packets, but a man in whom he had con fided turned against him, and he was betrayed before the vessel sailed, and was then arrested ind charged with the crime on board the Reg ulator, for which he was'tried and condemned to serve seven years in Walnut-street Prison at hard labor. There bo was found to be very obstinate and refractory, and constantly issuing dtreals of revenging himself when he should be eleased. lie is said to have boasted among is comrades that lie had sent more men into eternity than any convict who had ever been in our penitentiary. After his discharge he took passage in the brig Frands, for Savannah, but as lie was about to embark he was recognized and immediate notice given Iter owner, who very prudently had him and hi) baggage put on shore. We next hear of Tardy in Charleston, (S. C.) where he took fotcible possession of n ■filot boat lying in the harbor, and with t vo docks, was about to put to sea on a piratical expedition, but was discovered, pursued and brought hack, and notwithstanding this act and information was immediately sent to the Mayor of Charleston of Tardy’s character and former crimes, we now hear of his most horrid and in fernal deed on board the brig Crawford. How he obtained h s liberty or escaped the death so often dim to his crimes, let those who have charge of the public safety tell us, Tardy was a Frenchman by birth, a man of small size, dark complexion, about 55 years of age at his death, wore while on board the schr. Regulator and at the time he took passnge in the brig Francis, a blue frock coat, and general ly carried a small cane, had a genteel appear ance and good address,' spoke several languages and was capable of forging any papers ho might find necessary. He was a cold blooded pirate, and has un questionably been guilty of and accessary to ns many murders as any villain on record. The extent of his crimes was only known to himself; but sufficient is known by us to make us mourn over tho depravity of human nature. When a man can in cold Mood murder deliberately, and that while professing to uid n fellow being in agonies caused by himself, (as in tho case ot the German passenger in the Regulator) or af ter murdering to shift the punishment due to himself on an innocent man, as in the case of Captain Latham, he is guilty of crimes too black to be believed, were not the ovidenco too positive to admit of doubt.

That Mr. Forsyth is at heart opposed to the principles of Washington, wo have never had the least doubt: his whole public life has run counter to the admonitions of that great and good man. But we little suspected that he, or any American, would have sufficient effron tery to use language like that attributed to him. By all sorts of politicians in our coun try, having any pretensions to citizenship, and liv the well informed in all parts of the world, Washington has been justly esteemed as great est among the great, and best among tho good. But a revolution in opinion is about to take place, and Mr. F. is the wonderful organ who is to effect it. Who but him ever would have uttered, “that there was nothing tn the revolu tionary or subsequent services of General Wa shington to induce us to set so high a value upon my thing which had been in his posses- ACCIDENTS AND CRIME.

A few years since, and language like this would have been considered blasphemy ! It could not have been believed in Georgia, that one so recreant to his country, to gratitude, to prin ciple, could have been found among her sons Was this sentiment contracted during his mis sion to h'go'ed Spain, or from his connexion with “ Ch tries Cotes wart h Pinkney, the. eldest chil l of Federalism /” [See his toast,] Sa much for the man who professes to he a disciple of Washington—who calls himself a Republican of the old school—and who wishes to be governor of the Republican state of Geor gia But what better could he expected from hi who opposed tho administrations of Jefferyton and Miid'son as long as he dared; and only became their advocate when he found h*s po litical salvation depended upon it? It was not from economy that Mr. F. opposed the laying out a few hundred dollars to preserve to the nation tho relics of that nation’s father, No ! It was because the principles of Wash- ngton was not approved by him—because the love of country of that groat man finds no re- turn'ng throb within his own bosom. From the National Journal of March 1st, 1827, ‘•IN CONGRESS. HoOSK OF REPRESENTATIVES, IFerlnrsdiiy. February 28,1827. The following re«nlu*>on offered yesterday by Mr. EVERETT, was token up: Hcsolrtd, That the Clerl^ot'ttiix House be authorized and directed to purchase the set of Revolutionary Med- als formerly Jhe property of General Washington, to be deposited ‘fn the Library of Congress*. provided the expense of the same shall not exceed SI500. to be paid for out of the contingent fund of this House. Tn reply toa question from Mr. FORSYTH, Mr. EVF.RETT stated, that this was a set of medals struck in Paris, bv order of the old Congress, and this set was presented to General Washington. It belong- oil to some person unknown to him—not to the indi vidual who inherited the greater part of the property of Genera! Washington, and wns offered for sale by public auction, in consequence of the pressure of cir cumstances. The dies from which these medals were struck are tost, so that it is not passible that they can be multiplied. , Mr. BURGF.S said, he wns willing to obtain the»e pieces of silver because they beiongod to Washington, not because the- commemorated any service of his, for these reqtirc' not 'obe engraved on metal. Mr. FORSYTH suggested, that there was nothing in the revolutionary or subsequent services of Gener al Washington, to induce us to set so high a value on any thing which had been in his possession. He felt ns much gratitude to General Washington as nnv man ever did or ever could feel, but he was not disposed to make purchases of this kind. He objected to the manner in which this resolution comes before us. The library is antler the control of n_join» committee, and pied by Messrs, Burneys, as a law office, took fire from tho wadding of the cannon. Through the activity of a few individuals, however, the flames were extinguished before any material in jury was done. Also, at the same place, from a premature discharge of one of the cannon, the arms and faces of two persons engaged in loading the piece, were considerably burnt. On the same day, two negroes, belonging to Capt. Penn, of Monticello, had a quarrel, in which one of them raised a swingletree and gave the other a blow on the head, of which he died in a few hours. The homicide has been lodged in jail. CANDIDATES IN JASPER COUNTY. For the Senate—Col. John VV. Burney. For the House—J-hii Robinson, Esq. Major James P. Holmes, Col. James Smith, and James L.

Anniversary of American lndependend- ence was celebrated, on Wednesday last, by citizens of this County, with the accusiomod demonstrations of joy and gratitude. The so; rose in unclouded majesty, and all nature seem ed to wear a lovelier aspect on this auspicious morn. The day was ushered in by a national suloto of 13 guns to the old Confederation of 76. Every bosom swelled high with the re collection of the events of this memorable day, and patriotism caught new fire by seeing here and there a hoary headed hero of tho day that “tried men’s souls.” At an early hour of the day a large and re spectable concourse of citizens assembled at the La Fayette Hall, and at 10 o’clock a pro cession was formed under the direction of Cap tain Robert S. Patten, Marshal of the Dty, which proceeded to Mr. Stratton’s warehouse where the exercises of the day took place.— The Rev. Mr. Stiles addressed the Throne of Grace in an eloquent and impressive pray er. It was characterised by his usual fervor of manner, and'was peculiarly well calculated to elevate the feelings of devoiion, and call forth he soul of the patriot it) thanksgivings to the God of the whole universe, for the peculiar blessings wo enjoy as a nation; nnd while list en.ng to his pious effusions every heart throbb ed with a holy ardor of patri'-tism, and every eye beamed with extatic jov a*, tho Blowing picture the eloquent divine d r ew of 'he glori ous struggle of our fathers and of the happy consequences that followed their rare devotion to tho principles of religious and national lib erty. Benjamin C. Franklin, esq. read the Declaration of Independence in a handsome energetic style; and John G. Polhill, esq. delivered an Oration characterised by an un common share of elegance of diction, purit y of style, nnd loftiness of sentiment. ‘ We should despair of eiving even a tolerable representa tion of this fine specimen of forensic eloquence, if we should attempt it,—wo shall therefore fig relating to it was affected by a joint rego. content ourselves with giving a general outline, - >bop : ng that Mr. Polhill efo long will permit / . , , ., ... .

Tltero is very little doubt that this same Tar dy was on board a schottne* commanded by captain Latham, bound from New York to Charleston, about the year 1815, and nftor poi soning the passengers, had the hardihood nnd address to have ihe deed charged to,the cook, who had always before borne tin excellent char acter,'but who was arrested in Charleston on the schooner’s arrival, was tried, and circum stances made to appear so against him, that he V IS - nn lemned and actually executed, persist ing until the last that he wa$ an innocent man, and knew notlvng of the crime for which he was to siiffer.

Signs of a Millennium. Tho citizens of Jones county this year adopted a new plan in tho cel- ebrattun of the 4th of July. Instead of party dinners and inflammatory toasts, the day was spent in social intercourse aud festive mirth, un mingled with political discussions and factious bickerings. At the Old Fort, a splendid Bar becue was given by the citizens m the vicinity, at which all their neighbors und friends were in vited, free of expense. About 200 ladies at' tended, with their husbands and fathers, and by their presence, added a zest to the ploasures of tho occasion. In other parts of tho county similar entertainments were given; and in Clin ton the day was dosed by a brilliant Ball. The example of our sister county is worthy of imitation on all similar occasions. We sco no reason wby our patriotic fair should bo ex cluded from the mirthfulness of this day. And touch do we regret, that the spirit of party is He commenced; with n rapid and glowing al lusion to the remarkable coincidence in the lives of the immortal patriots Jefferson and Ad nms, and the still more remarkable coincidence in their deaths on the brightest day of their own or their country’s glory, and with a brief v-ew of that great nnd good man whoso name should never be forgotten on such an occa sion. Mr. Polhill then took a view of the world for some centuries back, nnd a rapid his torical sketch of tho causes which gavo rise to our Revolution in the gradual devclopomnut of the human faculties, and the consequent ex pansion of liberal and republican principles from the earliest poriod of authenticated histo ry down to tho present day; and of the moral influence exerteo over the world by the princi ples of our free nnd happy form of government, He portrayed the rapid march of the mind to wards universal emancipation—ho alluded to the effect produced even in Great Britain her- salf, and that it wns a part of tho plan of the Deity for tho redemption of the world from political thraldom. He congratulated Ireland on the certainty that these principles would produce a material alteration in her political situation, and tho prospect of their immediate realization, by tho appointment of Mr. Canning to the premiership of England—he alluded also to the effects already seen in South America oqd Greece.—Tho forciblo and energetic manner with which he impressed upon his au dience the sacredness of the Union and the du ty of preserving it inviolable, called forth bursts of applause and admiration. Wo were forcibly struck with the coincid ence of sentiment in- the prayer and tho ora tion. Both the gentlemen took the same view of tho events of the Revolution and its causes, and both attributed the glory of the past and tho prospects of tho future to the same Divine cause. After this appeal to their patriotism, tho O- raior paused for a few minutes, while tho Band bits civil and martial glory of GENERtt JACKSON. ‘ After the exercises at the Warehouse were over, the procession moved back to the j. 5 1 Fayette Hall, when a National Salute oftwen, ty-four guns was fired.
