General Saunders only wanted to know

Piratj in t’<r I Frit Tndits.—-Captain Hen
ry II. Ford, of die Colombian privateer schoo
ner El Culomhi.nin, recendy arrived in the
United States,from the II nnna, states tint,
With liis secretary, M. Williams, he was put
on shore on Cuba in February, 1825. They
were seize ) by die Spursli an 'lorbies it Puer
to Principe an I confined uniting thieves and
pirates of every colour, and furnished with but
h If a meal in 2 I hours. Tits Colombian
Government had demanded their reletsc, and
they had been ordered to Havana, nine months
before Ivv were liberated. C .pt. F. states
tint several of the pirates knowing that lie had
become arqn lotted with their depredations on
English .and American property, resolved to
kili him. He ascertained their design, and
info,mud ;h<* Governor, who lie thinks tolorat-
cit ilieic depredations. The Governor order
ed him a separate apartment, where a horse
tldof was ronfitieil. Capt. Ford furnishes the
following account of the manner in which pira
cy is now carried on in Cub it—
Since the American and EngPsli erniziers
h ive been cut ■/. ng off die coast of Cuba, the
pirates confine themselves to boats, which car
ry ftoin eieli.een to twenty mm. During the
day these ho.: s are hauled into some sal dl
creek or mush and covered with limdics; tho
no n rendezvous at a plantation not far off, the
owner of which is concerned. In an adjacent
town they have nnuthor colleague, who gives
them the earliest notice of the sailing of a sui
table vessel, where she is bound, what cargo,
money, or men she carries. Peril ips the mar
ch mi who is doing such vessel*! business is the
pei-on who furnishes this information. Tlie
p 1ms and fishermen ure all concr' nod, the 1 it-
ter fiequeiitly have bouses on some d suin', b tv,
which vessels bound in or out are obliged to
pass, near the Imuso is a flag siafi’, to advise
them of danger or booty, as may be agreed up
on. These wretches are not con'etii wth ta
king'the vessel and cargo, but boast of having
murdered all who spoke Etijl sh, lhj>t fell into
thoir hands; saying, that a “doad titan can tell
no tides.”—They boasted to me of having put
e shark-hook through the tongue of the Cap
tain ofan American schooner, which they cap.
turetl, hung him up until he was nearly dead
and hove him overboard; the crew they said,
were only tied, stabbed and thrown overboard.
When the vessel’s draught of water is too groat
to be token to a place of safety, they put the
Captain and crew, after being well secured, in
the long-boat of the vessel and then taka them
to a place of safety (as they call it) stall and
throw them overboard. In the moan time the
vessel is run upon a convenient shoal, and
wrecked. A cru /.or boarding them is inclin<
Oil to believe their story, that the captain and
crew, after running on the reef, abandoned the
vessel and escaped in the longboat, which he.
in? absen’ and the vessel on reef, appears plan,
sible, and the murderers are! unsuspected. Ves.
sets that are not heard from, after sailing, are
gonei ally supposed to have been lost at sea
when perhaps a largo proportion of them have
met 'he fate I have just described.

With regard to internal grievances, though

this expense bears with peculiar rigor. To

Remarkable Phenomenon.—On the evening of the
12(h instant, a white transparent light, in the form of a
cone based on a black clond in the west, was observ
ed from Charleston; it increased in brilliancy and
threw out vivid pbrfnscations towards the northeast
and souther.st, which caused it to as-iume tlie appear
ance of two cones. It then moved slowly its position
to t';e southwest; and after remaining stationary a few
minutes moved towards its iurtqer position, and short

appeared like nn immense illuminated fan with the

Easi F'nrithi.—The long drought, preceding the
month of September, had given rise to apprehensions
that the crop of oranges on the eastern roast would
be ton'; but tbs frequent nnd refreshing showers which
fell in the latter part of that month have removed all
fear nil tlie subject, and it .'s now tieliered that the fruit
will be very abundant. In middle Florida, the corn
nnd cotton crops are mid to be very abundant, and the
sugar cane, notwithstanding the’ long and severe
drought, continues to vegetate luxuriantly, bat rice
has been greatly injured. Iu Pensacola, cases of yel
low fever were Increasing both io malignity and num

Anli' tariff. —A largo meeting of citizens from the

resolutions were adopted against the Tariff system.
Jack:on Meeting—O11 thes'8th September last, a
lnree nnd respectable meeting of the friends of Gener
al Jackson took place at Greensborougli, Alabama.—
Its resolutions are spirited but decorous, expressing a
determination to support thj^General at the ensuing e-

Murder and SuictJe.—In Oldham county,
Kentucky, about the beginning of last tnon h,
one Captain Burton, with a knife in his hand,
chased his w fe up stairs, and forced her, to
save her life, to jump from the second story,
by which she broke a leg. He then carried
her into the house, laid her on a bed, and,
whilst she iinploied him to send.for' a docor
and that she would conceal the cause of her
disaster, he shot her thiotigh the head with his
rifle. Having loaded his rifle, he discharged
it without effect against himself. He again
loaded, took a drink of grog, and, having seat
ed himself on the side of the bed on which his
wife's life’s blood was flowing, succeeded in
driving a ball thro’ his head, in the presence of
his little daughter and Several other children.
Tho offence of his wife was in being devoutly

Sheep.—YTermont contains oqp million of
sheep, which vield annually three millions of
pounds of wool; nnd Now York three, millions
and a half, which nfford ton and a half million
pounds of wool. It is assorted as a fact, that
a farm of throe hundred acres in the latter
State maintains five hundred sheep, and yields
as much produce as it did previous to their in
troduction. Besides enriching tho ground by
the manure they scatter over it, the whole pro
duce in lambs and wool, deducting tho interest
of their cost and the trouble of tending them,
is cloar gain to tho owner.
