RALEIGH, (N. C.) June 30
The Circuit Court of the U.
States for this diflrift dol’d-or?
Wednesday last, after trying all;
the caules prepared for a tear
ing.
1 he trials of Abraham Collins
and Allen Twitty, charged with
having counrcrfeited bank notes
were continued upon tueir affi
davits, (fating the abfcnce of
material witnefles. After ob
taining the continuances, tht
rounfel for the prisoners moved
the court for an order author
ing Ibme Justice of tne Peace
;n the county of Lincoln, near
he residence of the prisoners, to
ake bail for their appearance at
the next term j but this the
fudge refufed j and cblerved,
that the combination in the tel
ony appeared to be so exter.five
and the prisoners at the bar so
influential and hardy, that nv_
ijuftice in that county was to be
,rutted with the performance of
Rich a duty—that whatever his
confidence in the in egricy of
Ibme of them might be, ne con
fidcred them all under the influ
ence of fear or favor. The!
counsel then propcled that Judge
Macay or Judge Locke, lhouib
be so authoriled ; and to this
proposition the court assented.
It was next moved that the
court lhould fix the sums which
the prisoner and their sureties
were to be bound ■, and it was
immediately declared by the
court, that Collins (whole prop
erty had been at a former court
afeeruined) lhould be bound in
Idle lum of 10,000 dollars, and
j his sureties in the like turn. But
las Twitty’s ellate was unknown
10 the court, it became necelfa
ry to have an enquiry upon oath;
the result of winch was lo vague
vibrating between ten and twen
ty thouland dollars, that the
court enquired to what amount
the prisoner could procure bail
with case; and being informed
that lie could procuie it to the
amount of 20,000 dollars with
the utmoll tale, that sum was
fixed on for Twitty alio, and the
like sum for Ins luittics Upon
this enquiry fomc argument .1-
rose. The counlel lor the de
fendant contended that the a
mount of a man’s ellate was the
limit for the court in taking re
cognizance of bail; and that all
beyond that limit was unconsti
tutional and opprdfive. The
Attorney for the United States,
on the contrary, contended, that
the court was not lb reitrifted,
but that it was proper to enquire
even into the circumltanccs of
the prisoner’s relations; and that
the praftice in the tlace did not
furn:flia more common case than
to take a recognizance for look
of a man not worth a fhiiling.
The Judge held an enquiry
into the circumftanccs of the
prisoner’s relations improper ;
but laid, that the meaning of the
words “ excejjive tad,” as uled
.n the conilitution, was such as
would have the clfect of detain
ing a man in cuttody lor a bai
lable (‘IK nee —that not the pn
: loner’s ellate only* but his ca
pabiktv to procure bail, lhould
be confidered —diat loine men,
polfeffc.i of large ellates, but o!
notonoufly bad etiarafters,
would not find sureties to a Imall
amount ; while otheis, of lien
Jcr fortunes, could, either by
their character or influence,
command friends for almolt a*
ny sum—that such bail, there
fore, as the prisoner could con
veniently procure, was not ex
cefiive, though the lum lhould
overreach his ellate. And he
remarked fa-ther, that lhould
the pielent information prove
incorreft, and the prisoner feci
nimlclt opprtfled, he might, at
any time, obtain an habeas cor
pus, and find relief.
Mdfrs. Haywood, A. Hen
derson, E. Jones and Cameron,
are count'd for the prisoners ;
lo that if the ability of counsel
can avail them, no expectation
can be entertained of their con
viftton.
George W. Swinney has been
called before the examining
court at Richmond, on the
charge of po for? ng his great
uncle, the venerable George
Wythe, and a servant boy. He
was unanimously remanded to
jail for further trial before the
diflrift court, to be held in Sep
tember next.
From the ( Peterjiurg) Republican.
The federal party affefted to
be lurprifed at the manly and
dignified deportment of the re
publicans in the legislature of
Mafiachufetrs, in the recent con
ceited election for governor of that
Hare. It is the peculiar proper
ty of base and corrupt minds to
fufpeft the purity and integrity
of every other benign society.
We need not travel very far
back in th hiflory of our own
tunes, to difover a clue to tnis
wonder ami amazement mani
fefled in the federal ti ibe. Act
ing on prmc.pies the mofl un
generous and unhumanly, in
ISOO weDeheld this party, with
a zeal ;nd perseverance, which
would have reflefted credit on
a go/d cause, obstinately fup
porring Mr. Burr as a prefijent
of the United States, in opposi
tion to that unequivocal expref
lion of the putiic will, which
pronounced Tlo.nas Jefferlbn,
to be the mau oj the people. In
this ever memoiabie triumph of
truth and rcal'on over the infid
uous wiles and ciabolical mach
inations of faftim, was laid the
foundation of tiat suspicion and
dillrull, which lave since char
afttrifed the fedraiiils. —Guilty
of a breach of tvery rule tend
ing to support political honesty,
we have since ft in thtfemen in
variably l'ufpcft the purity o!
the intentions of heir opponents
ami endeavoring thwart every
measure recoin minded fe r the
public good.
And whence has originated
this lufpicion, as criminal as it is
illlibcral ? in vah we solicit, in
vain we beg them to afllgn rea
sons for their conduft. To
what then are we to attribute
their perverf'enefs ? Can we for
a moment iippole their objeft
is the public happir.efs and prof
pericy ? Wecannot.—The max
im laid down in the preceding
paragraph, affords the only de
finition of their conduft, o!
which it is (ufeeptibie.
Federal opposition to the will
of the people, has been evinced
on a more recent occalion, at
tended with circumstances the
molt odious and debasing. We
allude to their conduft in the
legislature of Maflachuferts,
when, ir, order to have a lieute
nant governor of their own kid
ney they disfranchifed SIXTY
TWO towns, which had given
republican majorities, thus af
fording another evidence of
their opposition ;o the public
will, and their total disregard or
the means by which they accom
pliflied their enJs.
Let us now enquire how have
the republicans acted, in theii
various relations with the fede
ral patty. Under the present
adminillration, \vc behoiu hun
dreds of federalills enjoying the
fruits ot office, while they arc
aftive in traducing the very
men, to whom they are part y
indebted for tneir daily bread—
Federalills have even been ap
pointed to office by Mr. Jeffer
ibn, becaule he conceived them
capable of dil charging the uu
ties attached to their appoint
ment, and at the fame time
.aithful to the constitution.
To extend the fubjeft a liccle
further, mark, the republicans in
the present legislature of Mafla
chul'etts.—What a latire on fe
deral uprigbtnefs ! Weil may
the faftion be confounded at this
display of magnanimity. When
it was ascertained that Mr.
Strong w_s the people’s choice,
se republicans, taking advan
tage of their vail majority, dis
franchifed no to.v ns, robbed the
people ot r.o votes, to lecar: the
leleftion of their favorite Candi
date; but with a unanimitf.
1 which will rdLft immortal |-.oi
!or on the cause, proclaimed Q
(leb Strong govercor of the flae
‘of MalTachufetts. Federalills,
refl.-fton these things—humb'e

NEW ORLEANS, Mav 28.
Letters have been received i'rom ILa
kafkia and Fort St. Louis, which men
tion the arrival of Lieutenant Z. M.
Pike, from the Northern boundary of
j the United States. It apj(||. j that
lieut. Pike was dispatched with a ci.ni
mand of more than 30 men, in the
month of April or May, 1805, from
Fori St. Louis, to explore the main
branch of the Miflififrpi river and other
purposes j hia orders and inltrufiions
were to ai'certain particularly the lati
tude and longitude of the various places
on the river, and one great objtft was
to difeover an illicit trade supposed to
be carried ca between the Britilh traders
of the north weft company with the In
dians, within the United States.
The letters state that lieutenant
Pike found British traders several hun
dred miles within our lines, trading with
the Indians, that he collected dut.rs for
goods to the amount of upwards of
28,000 dollars—that the Inaians weie
ilimulated by thole traders to commit
depredations on him an 1 bs party —that
he had several fkirmi(h3 with them, in
which he loft five or of his men, aud
always made them retreat. This infor
mation comes so well authenticated that
it may be relied upon.
BRIDGE-TOWN, (Bar) May 3 t.
By the American iehooner Federal,
from Wilmington, arrived here on Wed
nesday last. the following particulars aie
obtained of the French squadron Under
Admiral Guiliomy : On the 23d inli.
the Federal fell in with the American
fhsp Exchange, from the Brazils, bound .
to Sagg-llarboui, the mailer of which J
informed, tiiat he had spoke, about ttie
end of April or Ift of May, a French j
fquadrou confiding of seven fail of the j
hue and one frigate, in lat. 12, 00. S. I
long. 35, 00, W. fleering, whtn he lift
them, S. S. W. The mui’ter of the
Exchange was on board a line of a battle
(hip, commanded by Jerome Bonaparte,
who gave him a letter for his wife, now
in Baltimore. He (hewed the Ameri
can the tract of the Iquadton pricked
off on a chart, from which it appeared,
that twenty-two hours previous to the
Exchange falling in with them, they
had iteered N. N. W. ; the American
therefore thinks they were bound to the
northward.
From the foregoing information, our
bell informed naval oiHcers here, con
clude that the enemy’s squadron were
cru ling for our Indiameu aud South
Sea Whalers.
The enemy at Guadaloupe, ir.idious
and daring, has recently been praclifing
a ruse tieguine against the unfortunate
but gallant inhabitants of Dominica, in
which, happily, they have however been
completely fruftrated. On the 2itl itrft.
his majdly’s Hoop Dominica, lying off
Roseau, tlie officers (except ttie matter)
being all on shore, the crew nsuthiied,
and carried her into Basset, rre, Gauda
loupe. General Erneuf, availing him
felf of the poffefiion of this veffcl to
practice a flratagem to annoy our fit ip
ping at Dominica, manned her with 00
men, and equipping a r.ationnl lehooner
and four row boats, dispatched them ear
ly the next day, on an expedition under
Gen. Hugtuneau, to Jeftroy the town
and fhipping at Roseau. The Wasp
(loop of war, with the Duke of M rntrole
Packet, lying there at the time, the
enemy upon their apptaaance difcqver
ing these vjlfels, abandoned tluir rnter
prife, and endeavored to escape : but
being inllantly puriued, the Wasp soon
came up with the Dominica, and recap
tured her, (the enemy pievioufly de
stroying his row-boats) —and the Packet
after an hour’s running fight, took the
fcliooner.
This account is obtained here by the
Lord Lavingtoa mail boat, from Anti
gua, ana Dominica, wiiieh failed from
ihe former for the latter bland on the
2 1 ft ieft. in company with his M?j sty’s
Ihip Northumberland, aud on the pal
fage fell in with a frigate, winch, upon
heaving light made a signal to the North
umberland, that induced her 10 alter her
coutfe to the N. E. with ail lads set,
when they fcpaited.
In audition to the foregoing, we are
favored with the following particulars
under date ol rhe 25th inst. from au au
thentic and highly refpeftable channel:
“ The Dominica is again in our pof
fcffloH. Ou the third inonnng auer her
dilappearanee, ihe repaired dole into

j peded presence of the Packet, aud her
convey, a gun-brig. The iatier veiici
immediately gave chafe, and being af
litted by to cue other cruisers, they hap
pily kio-cedcd in ie-capiuiing the
luica, and no doubt her coolort liured
the hin.i fate, as ihe was feed warmly

Rear admiral the hon. fir Alex. Coch
ran, K. B. arrived here on SutiJay night
fio.n Antigua and Dominica, on board
his Majesty’s fliip Northumberland, which
haa undergone a thorough- repair of the
damages fuiiained in the victory elf St.
Dorningo.
The enemy’s febooner Imperial Mon*. .
Point, Enfiga de Vaiffeau, engaged in
the late delign against the (hipping at
Dominica, (mentioned in our last) was
brought in hate on Sunday by the Cy.
gnet (loop of war ; on board cf which *
arrived the commander of this bucanier
ii g enterprise, whole name we t
and now find to be Hortoi e, and"his *
rank adjutant-gcncaal of Guadaloupe.
Ividit of rtc prisoners taken ou ihe above
occalion have affo arrived here ; but we
underllaud that tome of them embarking
on board of the king’s schooners, to be
brought here, roic upon the crew with
an intent of taking the lehooner, but by
the gallantry of her coininzn er the pri
for.ers were overcome and (ccured, not
however until feme loss was lutlained on
cur part, and the lieutenant of the fchr.
severely wounded, whiehobliged iiim to
put into Anti -ua.
A French brig, of ftr ng-force, from
Cayenne, according to the report of ff v
eral American vu'L-is anivgd here, is
cru.ling to windward, and has boarded
them from within 100 to t 80 mils of the
land. She is dated to mount 16 long
brais 9’s, aud carry 120 men. His ma
jclly’s (hips Ethalion add Cygnet have
b:.th gene to iea in coniequenceof th s
information, we hope one or the other
[ o them may be fu..cets:ul in falling i'a
! with her.
There is forr.e report in town of the ar
rival ot a small French squadron at P •, t<
Rico, and it is added, that the atimiral
has dispatched the Canada and a f igate
or two to look after them ; if any inch
report has been received spoil authentic
grounds, we are confident the vigilances
of the admiral will not let them remain
long unlocked after.
June 7.
The enemy seems spin to threaten ut
with tome naval exploit in these leas ; or,
as we are more inclined to imagine, to
afford our brave seamen another oppor
tunity of and 1 fcomfitting his m tritinie plans.
A French line of battle (hip has appeared
iu our neighborhood, and was seen by
the Etahon frigate on the 4th inliant,
within light of the ilbnd. -Without giva
ing rlired chafe to her, Ihe endeavored to A.
cut the Ethalion off the land, upon her
hauling round the North point ; but, un
able to effedt it, at fix in the evenin’ Ihe
bore up for Martinique, with all poiuble
lail let. This vcffel - s supposed, by our
belt informed naval officers, to be the
Regulus, which the enemy has had tta
tioned for fome time on the coast of Afri
ca ; but from the accultcmed triumpffis
of our navy, others imagine that it may
be fome more fortunate Ihip which has
t feaped from the defeated squadron ad
miral Guiliomy, who with Jerome Bona
parte, mty have fallen into our hands off
the coast of Brazils, where they were
lately spoke. She was fern on Thursday
