From the teftimony of the wit ntfils t xamined, it appears thar, the prifoner, although recently from America, is an Englilhman, arid had recently frequented a public jJnjft called the York-Minifter im ■ n .S . ; * . fttK diacely in the vicinity of the • cotton manufactory of M'ff s.

Hughes and Lewis reforttd : and amor<gft others, man named Hutchinfon, who had t t ,forrnerly been apprenticed from the v.jJrifh of St. Maitins, to a cotton ’Ar.ufaftory near Manchefter, where he remained ’tili lie arrived at the age of 21. He then came to Mt fils. Hughes and Cos. in the wool and ii g bufmefs, and was in fail returned a fair workman—This man the prifonef frequently met, and by glowing repnefentatic-ns of the advantages and great wages he was likely to obtain, by going to America, induced him to agree to emigrate for the pyrpofe of being employed in a cotton manufaftory, a: a place called Cooper's Town, whhia two miles of New-York, [Philadelphia] and a (hort did mce irom the rc (kit* nee of the prifoner. Mtff'S. i iughes and Lewis hav ing heard of this negociation fent for the prifoner and re mon ft rated with Dm on the illegality of the flops lie was purfuing for warning him st the fame time, that if he p 1 lifted in his delinquency, they would pundh him with the rigor of the law. The prifoner rhen declar ed his ignorance of aoy criminality attached to his conduct, and pro nuftd mod faithfully that he would rclinquilh his intentions. In a few days, however, Mr. Hughes dif coverM that Hutchinfon was mak ing preparations for his departure, ard thar his padage had been actu ally taken on board an American iliip-—This prifoner w.u then ap. prehended, and being brought be fore a magiftrare, produced a re ceipt of 12 1 dollars, paid by him to the mate of an Americau (hip, for JTutchir.fon's pdßge, and alfo a promifibrv no.e of Hutchinfon's for that lum and for other monies before paid to him by the prifoner, to be paid out of the produce of his labor's sin Ameiica. The prilon er’s defence was—that Hutchinfon came a fecocd time to him, and laid l*e had his matter's pciiniffion to leave the country, and that from 1 ;S f< I'Matiors he was induced to j ay r,,s paiLge out. 1 tit co*itiucn icjcant who tried the tfcfc in Ij mm or. mg up the evi dence, d* ;i: peculiar force cn the mifehievous tendency of the crimes with which the prifoner flood charged, which, he faid, was moll materially connected with the ma nufadluring interdl of this country ; and wii defervedly pur.ifhed by law in a moft exemplary manner; the legdliture having decreed, that prifoners guilty ol Inch a,i efTence, fhould be fubjcct to twelve months imprif'inmeat, and a penalty of 500 pound*. The jury, without a moment's hr fl nr ion returned a verdict of— Gu:i:y. Hutchinfon, the artificer Educ ed, was then tried under an aft pall ed in the sth of George the itt, which enacts, That any artificer, particularly in the manufactures of cotton, wool, filk, mohair, &c. who (hould be convicted of, or detected in, preparing to leave the kingdom, for the purpofe of devot ing his knowledge for ihe ben fi: and advantage of lore-gn count . k cot within the BritiHi domin’ r.. fhould be bound to enter into a re cognizance himfelf, and two lure tics, for remaining in the ccumity. The evidence on the former cafe was again gone through, and the prifoner was found—Guriry.

Any other cider cf procedure will be d : ttionv>rabie, as well as im politic and pre pufterous. Now is die time to reftore our rational honor to its original height. But, to defeend to higgle about native or colonial produce—to bar gain about a certain trade, over the dead bodies of the citizens treacher oufly murdered on boa’d the Chefa peake, would difgrace Shylodc himfelf—■ much more, the onty free nation on ear^h. No—no—firft embalm their memories, exacting atonement from their murderers ; appfale the honor and the grief of the nation, by hon orable means, and the voice of the nation will fuppbrt its juft claims.

Palliatives aggravate difeafes —-decifive, energetic and radical mealurcs, can a!;-ne recover the honor and iafore the profperhy rti the country. Should a ftrengthening- plaiilcr be laid on the oa.k of avarice, and the breull of lacerated honor be fturk over with frt fh bhfters—the nation will rqpent its devotion to the quackery ct puny ftatefmen, when it may b~>; too lace.
