JAMES MONROE By tile President : JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, Secretary of State Ft.OM THE CHARLESTON CITY GAZETTE. ' An Account of tlic late intended Insur rection among a portion of the Blacks of this city. Published by the authority of the Corporation, of Charleston.” This is a brief narrative of the facts tad evidence attending this important investigation. It is nevertheless full enough Ibr nil the purposes of public in formation, and embraces every material point in the transactions it undertakes lo summarize. The complete Journal of these trials can at any time be seen by onr ritizprig, and is kept as aa official re cord for History. In dwelling upon these interesting pa ger— to us and onr brethren of the South painfully interesting—(mol we doubt not nil our fellow-citizens thoughout tha Union, who have any fellings, partici pale in this emotion,) the reader will perceive that the bias lias been on the rid'- of mercy. It was public ti com mute the punishment oI’Gell, though a villain of the deepest dye—because, by Ins testimony principally, the whole plot was unfolile.d, & the conspirators brought lo justice. Though, during this deve- lopement, Cell's agency and guilt grew each hour more obvious, still tho Court were bound injustice, as much as they were bound in policy, not to deceive who had relied upon their word. In the case of Palmer, the only case ive believe in which the Executive exer cised his prerogative, the sin, if any, was on the side of mercy. In all ca-h-s involving such ingratitude fo humane owners, such indiscriminate mischief to the unsuspecting, such de moniacal passion for blood and plunder and conflagration—we confess ourselves to bo among the number of those, who deem the punishment cannot bn too sud den, sure and final. But the enlightened views of those composing the Court, have made a division of the crime, which would seem to domand a difference in the penalty. Those to be transported will, probably, yet feel that hour, when Death would he considered a less evil than the unknown horrors which their fate may still bring down upon their guil ty heads. The task has been accomplished ;— accomplished, too, with dignity and sin gular calmness. The *• Accout” has al ready been circulated extensively—and a third edition, on the third day of pub licalion, evinces that it will spread “ the truth and nothing hut the truth,” through out the United Slates. Any extracts we should m ike would he super)! ions to our readers; and, to (hose abroad, would convey but an imperfect idea of tho his tory of the Plot, and the characters of those engaged in its execution. We could not, however, avoid ihe intrusion of some dubious reflections in reading the following : “ The Confession of Jack Purcell.—If it had not been for the cunning of that old villain V'esey, I should not now he in my presenl situation. He employed every stratagem to induce me to join him. He was in the habit of reading to me all the passages in the newspapers that related to St. Domingo, and app ir- ently every pamphlet ho could lay his hands on, that had any connection with slavery. He one day brought me a speech which he told me had been de livered in Congress by a J\Ir. King on (he subject of slavery ; he told me this Mr. King was the black man’s friend, that he, Mr. king, had declared he would continue to speak, write, and publish pamphlets against shivery the longest day he lived, mini the Southern States con sented to emancipate their slaves, for that slavery was a great disgrace to the country.” If V’esey was tho father of the con«pi- racy, who, it might be naturally nsked, put Ihe original idea into Vesey’s sus ceptible soul ? Rut comment is unne cessary. We only state for the inform 1- tion of certain people, that Denmark (or Telemaqtie) Vesey was a free black man-, in his thoughts and actions as free as he should be and owned property worth a- bove eight thousand Dollars. Therefore it was not “ resistance of tyranny,” but the Prince of '"Surliness thut prompted his devlish plan. “ The following sentence was pro nounced July 9th, 1822, upon Jack, a slave belonging to Paul Pritchard, com monly called (3sli.ah Jack, by L. 11. KENNEDY, Presiding .Magistrate : Jack Pritchard—The Court, after deliberately considering all the circum stances nf your case, are perfectly sati-- tied of your guilt. In the prosecution of your wicked designs, you were not satisfied with resorting to natural and or dinary means, hut endeavoured to cnli-l un your behalf, all Ihe powers ol dark ness, and employed for that purpose, the most disgusting mummery ami supersti tion. You represented yourself as in vulnerable ; that you could neither he taken nor destroyed,&. all who fought un der your banners would be invincible.— While such wretched expedients are cal culated to inspire the confidence, or to alarm tho fears of the ignorant Si credu lous, they excite no other emotion in the mind of the intelligent Si enlightened, but contempt and di-gust. Your boasted Charms have not prevented yourself, anil of course could not protect others. “ Your Alters and your Gods have sunk together in the dust.” The airy spec tres, conjured by you, have been chased away by the special light of Truth, and you stand exposed, the miserable and deluded victim of offended Justice Y our days are literally numbered. Y'on will shortly be consigned to the cold and silent grave, and all the Powers of Darkness cannot rescue you from your approaching Fate! Let me then, con jure you to devote the remnant of ynur miserable exislnnce, in tleeing I'rmn the “ ■wrath to come.” This can only he done by a full disclosure of the truth. The Court nre willing to afford you all glia aid in their power, aud to permit any Minister of the Gospel, whom you may select, to have free access to you. I’o him you ntay iinburthen your guilty conscience. Neglect not the opportu nity, lor their is 11 no device nor art be yond (lie tomb," to which you must shortly be consigned." I he above is selected nut of many sentences passed ns this occasion. It is eloquent, and truly honorable to the tal ents and feeling ol the Magistrate who delivered it. I he citizens of Charleston will doubt less express, in somt public manner, •heir sense of the important labours un dergone, and tho spirit nod intelligence displayed by those who conducted the above investigation. T> HEW" RD duo to the DISCOVERER of the Plot, is yet to he bestowed. This will lie the pleasing business of the Legislatureofthe State. It is a remarkable coincidence (hat the name of Col. Prioleao’s faithful servant who fait it his duty to protect his master and family, and our whole city Irom the late meditated massacre, is, Pe ter. and is the second of the same name and belonging to the same family, who has rendered litis service to Soulh-Caro- lina The remark is trivial, but the tacts themselves should he purpetual moni tions to all future evil-thinkers that there ever vvtli as there ever have been jer rants of principle and integrity who wil discover and frustrate such guilty pru jests. And even should fear prevent them, there are always to lie found some partners in iniquity, who to save them selves, will disclose their schemes, so that after all, good conduct and fidelity will bn found the most certain and least perilous road to happiness and that in crease nf privilege, which they wn seek in vain hy visionary plans of Insur rection. Progress lo the Best-Steam Boats, Little Rock is the seat nf government nf the Arkansas territory, situated on the Ar kansas river, I, ss than .100 miles from its mouth. From Little Rock, tho Cherokee Missionary Establishment at Dwight is dis tant about t.‘JO miles.— I he Nat. tntelligen- cer lately expressed its surprize that the steam boat Eagle should have “ ascended the river the whole distance from the Mis sissippi river to within 12 miles nf the Mis sionary establishment.”—But haw much mure will our Eastern brethren stare (says the Arkansas G izette of the 9th ult ) “ tvli.-n they are told that the steam boat Robert, j Thompson has actually made three passages i this season to Fort Stoitu, about 12a miles above Dwight, and upwards of ioo miles from the Mississippil A il their astonish ment will doubtless be considerably height ened, when ive assert, and we do it from credible authority, that she might have hr. eroded about 500 miles farther without dif ficulty. The sight of a steam boat, eliding majestically thro' the waters of the Arkao sas, in the very heart nf thu Osage Nation, will be hailed with wonder and surprize by the aborigines of our country ; yet, however incredible it may appear to some, we have no doubt Imt tiiat the lime is not far distant, when this sight will become familiar to Ilium. “ It is but little more than two years, since we witnessed the first arrival of a steam boat at the town nf Arkansas; and not yet four mouths, since we announced the arrival of the first steam boat that ever ascended the Arkansas to this place. But that which was a novelty to many of our citizens a few months ago, It is become fa miliar to them ; they have already witnes sed four passages made a great distance in to the interior of onr country by steam boats, and in future, will look for their return with tin: same regularity with winch they look fur the return of the seasons. It is impossible to look at this rapid march to tile West without the deepest in terest. Used as we are to a proficiency, which strikes Ihe old world with surprise, ami outstrips in the utmost degree the snail- paced step of its sluggish population, ive confess we cannot ourselves look upon these memorable advances, when they are brought to our consideration by such par ticular and striking illustrations without some sort of astonishment. M my of these gigantic strides are owing to the invention of thu steamboat. The tutelary genius of Fulton appeared just in time, for the inte rests of the west. In the dark ages, this man would have been venerated as a god. We do not believe that on the banks of the Mississippi lie has yi l a single statue or any monument erected to his honor. [!licit. Jdny.j in Florida are equal in every respect lo those imported from the Levant. This tree seldom attains the height of ten feet, and grows principally in low and wet situations, ami the galls cover the branches in great profusion. The writer ol this gathered in the space .fa low moments several pounds. When it is taken into consideration the impor tance of this production in Dying and Medicine, their present high price (from 60 to til) per civt.j and their not being indigenous in any other part of the U. States, we know of nothing that would so well repay the enterprise of any of our citizens, as collecting and sending tbeuito the northward for sale.” tread being lienrd, she, while he was de scending the stain, seized Ihe cat, and squeeze d it so hard as to make it squeal till the whole house re-echoed with Ihe noise. Grimalkin’s uuqalling served only to excite Ihe suspicion of the mistress, and determin ed her to see w hat was the matter. In Ibis dilemma, the fair Juliet dropped the cat, and blew out the candle. Tile mistress de sceuded the stairs, and in one moment af terwards found herself in the arms of a sturdy negro, who imprinted one kiss on her lips, hut then discovering his mistake, ingloriuu ily (led, and left the lovely Juliet to her fate. Tho son of the lady, alarmed hy the uproar, came down and secured the wench, but she would not reveal to tho magistrate the name of her companion. [Phil. Union '] Products of Florida.—A writer in I ho Floridian, published in Pensacola, slates u fact which may be interesting to mans persons—“ It may perhaps be gratifying to your readers to learn that among the abundant vegetable productions nf VVest- Florida, the Quercos Orris nr Oriental Oak stands in the first class. It owes its importance principally to the production of Nut GalL—they have hitherto been imported from the Mediterranean at a great expense, and their importance in manufactures is well known. They nre the production of an insect of an hymenop- terous species. The Cynops Qvereifolu, who deposit their eggs on the leaves and tender branches of the tree—an excre scence is soon formed around the egg, which enlarges to a ball the size of a bul let, enclosing the egg—which in process of time is hatched, and the embryo often There are a Dumber of interesting tacts, relative lo early American History scattered through Holmes’ Annals. The editor of the Democratic Press has read the work for the purpose ot selecting such matter as may interest the Ameri can people. He submits the result— No. I. Robertson and Anderson concur in stating that in the year 16Uti some slips of the Sugar Cane were brought from the Canary Islands and planted in His paniola, (St. Domingo) where they were found to thrive so well as soon to become an object of commerce. it tbertsonsuys that a few Negro Slaves were sent to America in the year 160J. In 1608, Negroes were imported into St. Domingo by the Spaniards from the Portuguese settlements on tho Guinea Coast. The reason, assigned was that the natives were too feeble to work in the fields and in the mines. It is clear that in modern times Slavery is the off spring of cupidity. Charles V. of Spain granted to a Flemish favorite an exclu sive privilege of importing into Ameri ca four thousand negroes. The Flem ing sold the privilege for 25,000 ducats to some Geneosc merchants, who first brought into a regular form the com merce for slaves between Africa and America. A commerce which is now happily at an end. It is an honorable fact in the History of the United Slates, that it was the first government which prohibited the importation of slaves. The first Charter for a colnnv granted by the crown of England was granted b, Queen Elizabeth iu 1517 to Sir Hum phrey Gilbert. By this charter ho was authorized to discover and take posses sion of all remote and barbarous lands unoccupied by any Christian prince or people. The first English Colony ever planted in America as at iloinuike island. Vir ginia, in 1585. One hundred and seven persons were left them hy Sir Richard Greeville, under the government of Mr. Lane. Un the 18lh August 1587, Mrs. Dare was delivered of a daughter in Konoake, w hich was baptized the next Lord’s day hv the none of Virginia. She was the first English child born in the country. In 1693 the English sent snuie Eng lish ships to cape Breton for morse fish ing and others fir whale fishing. This i« the first mention we find of the Whale Fishery hy the F.nglish. They found no whales but they discovered on an island eight hundred vvh lies tins, where a Bis cay Ship had been lost three years be fore, and this is the first account that wo have of whale fins or of whale bone by the English. In 1807 the English settlers built a town in honor of king James, called it James Town. This was the first perma nent habitation of the English in Ameri ca. In 1608 John Laydon was married to Ann Barrass, and this was the first mar riage in Virginia. The first marriage in New England was in 1621, between Ed ward Winslow and Su-ana White. In 1G10 a member of Parliament came to America. The commons declared his seat vacant becao«e by accepting a colo nial office lie was rendered incapable ol executing his trust. This appears to be the first time that Virginia was noticed by the English parliament. In 1618 Tobacco was first cultivated hv the English in Virginia. The Virginia company this year sent over 150 girls, “ young and uncorrupt,” and well recommended to become wives to the planters. The price of a wife at first was one hundred pounds of tobac co, but increased to one hundred and fifty pound, the value of which in money was three shillings per pound. All debts contracted for w ives were order ed to have precedency of all other debts and be fust recoverable.

Fhilaof.lphia, Aug. 1C. On Wednesday morning last a deve.lnpe- rarnt took place before a magistrate, of an occurrence which, however laughable it may appear To some, could nut in all its irenmstances be very agreeable to all the THE MERA1AID. An account of the Mermaid, supposed lo have been caught in one ot Ihe Japan Isles, and published by us some days ago, contained only ihe general facts connected with this marina animal, which were disclosed to us in a conversation with a gentleman who had seen the spe cimen. A more particular description is given in the Providence American of yesterday, by an intelligent gentleman of that place who had c . -ely examined this wonderful curiositv v he i it was exhibit ed at the Capo of Good Hope. Whilst it supported the relad n we have given, it adds a great number of interesting circumstances. [Boston Eve. City Gaz ] “ From the improper manner in which Ibis curiosity has been preserved, ii is somewhat difficult to decide what rnighi have been its size, when alive. In its present situation, it is about 3 1-2 feet in length, from the tip of it3 tail to the crown of the head—an ! judging from its wrinkled, contracted state, I should presume it was a foot longer when liv ing.— The fish part is about a» large as a common sized Cod—the tail is very leeply forked, near which are two fins on each side—the scales at the extremi ty are in «ize like those on the fish 1 have mentioned, decreasing gradualh as they approach the human part, till, when they are joined to tho bare skin, they are only visible through the mis- croscope. Its skin now is of a dark brown hue, but orieinally I should think it may have been as lig'.t coloured as that of a Mulatto. The dimensions of the head and breast as those of a well sized child of six months old. The up per part of ihe head is perfectly human, and remarkably well stuped indeed—sn finely formed, that its forehead and crown would bear comparison with the finest cur of species. Of the lower part, orface.it is more difficult to judge, from the extreme cont n tion which has there taken place. lowever, it has more the appearance of the human or Hottentot visage than that of Ihe .Mon key—the eyes are of a fine shape, though now deep sunk in the sockets—the eye brows also are delicate and handsomely curved—the nose is better formed, and not as flat as that of the common African negro—the mouth is rather large in pro portion to the size of (he head and filled with very white handsome teeth, per fectly resembling tho human—Ihe two in the upper j hv. which are called tusks in the Boston paper, I consider the. “ eye teeth”—they are a little longer than the others loot the projection spoken of is evidently caused by the contraction of the 1 ips—the chin corresponds with the human, and the ears also—its hair, which is chiefly on the back part ofthe head, is of a light brown colour, and not coars er than that of Indian—’(is thinly spread, and about three inches or four in length —the neck is short, though not more so in proportion to the body, than may be seen among the varieties of the human race—the bust is that of a finely formed female, gracefully tapering to its junc tion with the fish—the breasts are pro minent, and well proportioned to the fi gure—the arms tire of a proper length and shape and lightly covered with short fine hair, of nearly the same line as that on its head—the hand is delicately form ed, with long slender lingers, on which are nails, as those which ornament the fair hands of any of our “ belles.”— There is a fin on each side ofthe body, about three inches below the arm pit these are evidently placed there for the purpose of enabling tha creature tore- main in an erect position in the water without the aid of its arms and hands, which are tbus left at liberty for defence or procuring its food. I have thus given you the best discretion 1 can of this wonder of creation, and though l view it as deciding the question of the existence of n creature uniting the human body with that ofthe fish, it is in it9 appear ance, as unlike the imagiuary beautiful descriptions we have read of the Mer maid, as it is different from any other created thing 1 have ever seen. I will acknowledge that I have ever been an to tie n perfect production of nature whi' h they called a Mermaid, still il u.«y prove to be a deception—a thing made up. Should ibis be the result ot further examination in England, 1 can unhesita tingly say, that it will be to knowledge.! the most wonderful ins'ance of human ingenuity that has ever been exhibited to the wi rid.

And wh.it deserves to bo related, when the spasm subsided, he entreated his parents not to turn n poor person from the door, without giv ing something ; adding—“ supposing you had water and your neighbor had none, how hard it would be for your neighbor to be refused.” He c died to him all the bystanders whom he knew, and wish ed that they would go to prayer, l’o his parents, he observed that they ought not to fret about him, for he should lie happy before long.

JVe understand that Deacon Charles M'Kenzie, of Hartland, Vermont, a lar- iner of the first respectability, and a man highly esteemed wherever ho is known, in consequence ofthe death i f an uncle, is likely to be Lord Monro, of Allen Ross-shire, in Scotland. It is hut, a few weeks since an old gentleman of Roxbury was informed of a similar kind of luck, he being the eldest lineal de scendant now living of an ancient family of parliamentary dignity in England.— The laws of primogeniture occasionally excite our astonishment, particularly when wn see men brought from the most humble stations of life, and from most sections of the globe, to be. the heira of consequential men in another king dom, ot whom perhaps thev never be fore heard.— Ferment paper. The pretensions ol Mrs. Olive Per- rcs, who claims to be tha daughter ofthe late Duke of Cumberland, brother of George 111, appear hy the late English pajiers, to bo much better founded than had generally been supposed.

Well-supported evidence of his marriage with her mother w is also ad duced, She claims, by Dr. Luehington, a legacy ol 15,000/. sterling, bequeath ed to her by George III.
