The general is immediately from - Pensa

mony existed among every class of citizens
at that place; that su far Irom murmuring,
the Spaniards who remained, found tie
fault whatever with the authorities estah-

if that place.
We understand that three companies

who will have the direction of the whole,
one under capt. M’Oirt anti the third un-
uer capt. Boyle, consisting of between b

Cluiborna itt a few days, to scour the coun
try from that place to Fort Jackstin, and
if possible, destroy a party of out-lying In

object of plunder, than from a disposition
to cuuimit murder.—Halcyon.

English' bng Monarch, of Whitby, captain G J.
Frank land, from Jamaica for London, we learn
ed from her that -she and berfemcoits, the ship
Clifton, captain J. Sand, and bng Alice, both also
from J-TEiica for London, had been overhauled
on Hie 3t*th June, by the same pirate which rob
bed us, that they had been pillaged and treated
in the same manner as we had been. . It appears
tuat these uiiprincipled villains were at one time
determined to sink the Monarch, "that the might
tell no talea;” and actually fired several chut at
her lor that purpose, which providential!;, did her
no barm (the fellows being all drank) They;
loaded again, but owing to a blunder in steering,
the gyms wunlil not beer upon her, snd they then
desisted. Some of them stated, that the brig’s
name was the Clio, and the captain’s name R.
Bradford-, and that they were cruizing under the
Vrnrzulian flag 1'hree of those who called them
selves officers, wvtit by the names of Air Harris,
Mr.ytrown, alias Jam* Bald, and Mr. H iss, alias
Robert M‘Carrie. They robbed the Clifton and
the Monarch of all the money they could find,
and sere-al articles of value.

which is must important:—
“A letter from Pat Hymes, addressed to his
father. James Himes, e>q. merchant, Galway.
Ireland, dated at aea,27tb June, 181b From this
letter it appears, that the real name .if the brig .s
the Inijia Libre; that the crew mutinied at Mar-
earitta about their wagers; av.d being headed by
one Thomas Killeen, of Gbrt, in Ireland, a neat
townsman of Himes (as he caffs him) they took
possession.of the vessel, then in the patriot ser
vice under atlmiial Rrion, snd carried her to

On tlie day abovementioned, we were boarded
beta ixt me hours of 5 and 6 e. n. by a privateer,
or r.Hirrpirate brig, under Spanish colors, ahtu
our lessci underwent a strict search b> the bt arc

pistols, wuo, after captain N bad. gone on board
the pira'e, as ordered by her commanding officer,
plundered us of a variety of articles, to thc
imiHint of nearly S4j‘j, wiitiout making any com
pensation whatever. The crew of Hie pirate aj»
peared to ciffinst almost entirely of Irislimen,
BngtiahnMn and Americms; and all thvss’ who
came mi board of us (the boarding officer in
particular) seemed to be more determined rob
bers. As soon as these villains got up cur side,
they ordered the who*.' of our crew and passen
gers to the fore part of our vessel under a guard,

Hie greatest ludeness by the board mg officer, who

This piratical vessel, it was sa.d by tht hoarding
officer, had had an action shortly before, with
