“I cannot help remarking here, that the plan of retali
ation determined by president Madison, merits the res
pect and gratitude of the present and future generations
of men. It was this energetic step that saved the lives,
ap-l insured the usual treatment of ordinary prisoners of
war to the American soldiers of Irish birth. This firm
determination of die American executive arrested the
bioodv hand of the British. They remembered ma
jor Andre, and they recollected sir James Asgill, under
the administration of the great Washington, and they
trembled for the fate of their own officers. May eternal
b'. ssings here, and hereafter, be the reward of Madison,
for his righteous intention to retaliate on the enemy any
p ;b|,c punishment, that should be executed on these Arne
rican soldiers, of Irish origin. While we feel gratitude and
rcs’iectto the head of the nation for liis scheme of retali
ation, we cannot suppress our feelings of disgust towards
tlie fiction in our own country, who justified the Brit
ish government in tlieir conduct towards these few Irish
men, and-condemned our own for protecting them from
an ignominious death. I speak it with shame for my
country, the ablest writers of tlie oppositionists, and the
oldest and most celebrated ministers of religion, employ
ed their pens and tlieir voices to condemn Air. Madison,
and to justify the British doctrine. This is a deep stain
on the character of our [federal] clergy; and tlie subse
quent conduct of tlie British, may serve to shew these
ever meddiing men, that our enemies despised them and
respected Madison.”
Paul Cuffee who in December last, c-irried out to Si
erra Leone from tlie United States nine men of color,
with their families, has recently returned to New-York,
and exhibited to tlie New-York African institution certi

Tie has also received from governor M‘Cartha a certifi-

From the Georgia Journal, June 12.
ILLEG AL OUTRAGE.
The communication which follows, disclosing an act
of villany almost incredible, was furnished by an intelli
gent gentleman of undoubted veracity.
Messrs. Graxtlamus.—I transmit to you, for publica
tion, the following statement of f'-.cts, which I have from
unquestionable authority, in order that those who vio
late the laws, and trample upon the rights of hospitality,
may be brought to condign punishment.
Two persons armed, by the names of Stobo and
John Castellow were on tlieir way, passing through the
county of Jasper on the 28tli ultimo, enquiring for tlie
road leading to tlie ( lierokee nation, haring in their cus
tody five Spaniards, in sailors’ dress, whom they say it
is their intention to sell to tlie Ckerokees. On enquiry,
they say, they purchased them in Telfair county, and
that one of the two paid p..rt down and gave his note
for the balance of tlie consideration money, to which the
other is a witness. Rut the unfortunate persons in cus
tody, intimate, in terms hardly intelligible (not being
able to speak English) that they are from Europe, and
being strangers in Pensacola where they landed, were
decoyed by these two Americans out of town by fair pro
mises; and having got them in tlic-ir power, confine them
in such a manner as to render resistance useless. In this
manner, it appears, they havejbeen driving these men on
foot, • (they on horse-back and well armed) through tlie
country—a country too, boasting of its liberties, and of
tile sacred rights of hospitality!
There is notliing in the appearance of these Spanish
prisoners that indicates any mixture of African blood in
their veins; and to suffer foreigners, unacquainted with
our language, customs and manners, w hom misfortune
has driven upon our coast, to be treated with such inhu
manity, and those who are the authors of such brutality,
to escape with impunity, would be a reflection upon the
government, and a slur upon the American character.
It is hoped that prompt measures will be taken to re
lease these unfortunate men, and to punish the offenders,
who, in passing the country, take unusual pains to avoid
detention and elude the officers of justice.
Editors will do well to give publicity to tills.
New Roar.—General Johnson and Mr. Dickson, the
commissioners appointed by government to survey and
mark a road from Reynoldsburgh to the present road
leading to Xatcbtz, have performed that duty, and re-
t'u ned home. The road runs nearly a direct course
f" mi Reynoldsburgh to the Chickasaw Old Fields, the
;-.nc ion of the two roads, and-1s distant about 129 miles,
it ’-alls on high ground,'andis also well supplied with
water.—■„YashviUe Whig.

The fourth of July, we expect, will be celebrated
Whin more parade in tliis city this year tiian tlie last. The
processions .nil attr-ct more attention, if it were only
for the novelty of the niinature man-of-war draw n
through the streets; it is now constructing by Messrs.
Eckford & Browns, &e. But, the general concord among
the republican party wilt occasion a more splendid ce
lebration than usual. If we compare ourselves with

j .bilee, a day of universal rejoicing and thanksgiving.—

AMUSEMENT.
The following extract is taken from a notice in the
Richmond Compiler, of a set ol English caricatures;
.2d Caricature—entitled “The Interview, or Miss out
of tier teens”—turns upon the high life scenes, which are
now exliibiting for the amusement of poor John Bull.—
Tiie prince regent, his gouty foot wrapped in flannel,
is pushing in with his crutch, his highness, prince Leo-
pc..i—“Courage, man! don’t be bashful”—the prince, in
a ludicrous uniform, and with a long sword, is addressing
himself to his cara sposa with those emphatic words:—
“Madam, I have no money, but I’m of the right breed,
true German, and blood royal.” The princess (Charlotte,
like a true hoyden, appears with a skipping rope, and
thus answers his salutation, “I had rather you were Eng
lish! but a German husband is better than none”—while
her grandmother, queen Charlotte of England, is push
ing uer forwards, saying, “Go along, scape grace, speak
kindiy to him!” There is some humor in this royal cari-
c&u'ire.
1 "V' <e nex j- caricature is founded upon a late anecdote of
tetef Erskine’s sending brooms to market, 4nd selling
i his
twweppmg
slim gen-
or sweeping mea-
i«inrpllnt« " Oil tilC
m witfeenRiieftnsfr-rthe wL„„
the principaf characters are, Mr.
Reman, dressed ih hfack, with broo:
entitled “New brooms for John Bu:
sures, recommended by the late chancellor.
.left, is a large stall, filled with brooms of various des
criptions, with the flowing sign of “Stock in trade of
B—sk—e ahd Co. Licensed Hawkers and Pedlars.”—
At the bottom of the stall, is a tub, labelled “Rods
in Pickle;” in which, is a “Rod for theinquisitorial com
missioners under the Income tax”—“Rod for Ferdinand
the 7th”—“Rod for tlie Prince Regint”—“Rod for the
Bishops”—“Broom tb sweep out the House of Lords”—
“Broom for cleaning away the rubbish of a Chancery
Suit,” Sec. The slim gentleman in black, addresses Mr.
Bull, “Here is a bonny broom with ‘ a long handle, fra
tlie North that will sweep out aw the dirt and rubbish in
ev’ry house except the P 1 house and C—1—n house”
—John Bull plainly tells him, “I want a broom to sweep
away the income tax, and C—le h>!” Between these
two august personages, in the back ground, is an officer
who seizes lord Erskine’s agent with his brooms—“Show
your license, fellow”—Oh! (replies the other) “I’ve none,
sir; my master’s a lord.” There .is too much variety of
figure and allusions—and many of the conceits are far
fetched.
There is another'Caricature, “The Court at Brighton
ala Chinese,” intended to burlesque Ithe amusements of
the Prince Regent, confined at Brighton with the gout.—
The Paii!lion, so often ridiculed for its follies and cen
sured for its extravagance, is tlie scene of this Bartholo
mews fair—around the prince, are strewed political pa
vers, and works to his own taste in wild profusion. He
is seated on an immense cushion, delivering to the minis
ter plenipotentiary to China, (lord Amherst) ins 1 motions
to get fresh patterns of Chinese deformities to hnish the
decorations of the pavillion.” The princess'Charlotte is.
soliciting him fora China man, instead of a German hus-
and—the whole groupe is a burlesque upon “tlie
Lord’s anointed.”
One thousand dollars were yesterday deposited in the

THE NEWS
From Europe is squally—appearances, seem
to indicate that a storm is apprehended. France
is greatly agitated, and revolutionary move
ments are daily expected. Russia is suspected
to be arming to extend her influence over the
South of Europe: and it is whispered that,
“Louis the Desired” is to be ousted, and some
new ruler placed in his stead. “The agony
is not yet over.”
* *
It has been asked, whether William H. Craw
ford, like William Keift, will consider the bap
tism of the squaws a necessary preliminary to
their alliance with the whites?
By late accounts from New-Orleans, it ap
pears that col. Perry and some other officers of
the Mexican army, were recruiting men at that
place and its vicinity, and had procured four or
five hundred, with whom they intended to de
part for Mexico.
We observe the following lines in several
leading federal papers:
“The British cartel brig Maida, arrived at New-York
on the 15th instant from England, with one hundred
American seamen, released from British ships of war.”
“Releasedfrom British ships of war,” were
they, gentlemen? This comes with a pretty bad
grace from federal editors, who have uniformly
said that the late war with England was unjusi,
unrighteous, and unnecessary—that it was not
declared for “Free, Trade and Sailors’ Rights.”
These editors were not apprized of the bearing
of this article when it was published. It will
not at all suit their Hartford Convention friends.
Neither will governor Strong’s committee (who
-stated that there were only fifteen impressed
Americans from Massachusetts) relish this un
lucky assertion. It flies in the teeth of all your
former writings, gentlemen, and blasts with in
famy the disgraceful calumniators of the govern
ment. We repeat, again, that the war with
England was just and necessary, and notwith
standing the base efforts of an unprincipled
faction among ourselves, it was carried
on by tlie Republicans, and ended gloriously.—
It has secured us an honorable name among the
nations of the earth—it has gained us a know
ledge of our own resources, and a sense of their
importance. We have, by the war, asserted the
rights of an independent nation, by insisting on
reparation for wrongs, and demanding the re
cognition of our rights. W e have beaten our
old and deadly enemy—we have chastised her
insolence: her ’Toulouse veter a ns have been rout
ed by our undisciplined troops: her naval pride
has been humbled by our gallant and skilful he
roes on the ocean: her commerce has felt the
force of our privateering system: her manufac
tories have declined by the loss of our trade;
and she was evidently driven to make a peace.
In short, England has been defeated and dis
graced in tlie contest. Tlet us, therefore, thank
Heaven, that we have saved our honor, saved
our independence, the integrity of our soil, and
.»ur republican institutions; and have taught
the world that a republic, under the most un
fortunate auspices, has been able to sustain a’
war, single-handed, against the most powerful
monarchy on earth. Rejoice, then, Americans,
and be grateful to Heaven; for your indepen
dence, constitution, and liberties are safe, and
your glory is fixed on a foundation imperishable.
“God hath done great things for us, whereof we
are glad”—“Glory to God in the highest, Peace
op earth, and good will to men.”
It is but justice to suggest to the public of
Georgia, that the works of her only Historian
be neglected on the shelves of the book-sellers,
when its value for information of tlie early set
tlement of this country, its infancy, its maturi
ty and its independence, is beyond all praise.—
Had it not been for Major M‘Call’» labors, in
dustry and talents, the present and succeeding
generations would have been left ignorant of the
founders and of the interesting causes of the
foundation of this growing and independent
state. This notice is published for the purpose
of leading public curiosity to a work of merit,
and indispensible to the citizen of Georgia, if
he venerates the founders, heroes and patriots
of the land. Z.
