Monstrous Barbarity.
By correct information we
had occation to relate in oar
*■
paper of the 21st ult. the
fufterings of the unfortunate
Americans, prisoners at Hal
ifax, and the ruffian feverify
of the enemy towards them
—it is now in our power to
fav, that the nuirative then
4 9
given is declare J by «n offi
, er, vk h > has witiufi-d ;h?
lame tondiuT, to be Tub
llantirtlly corredl —and we
are favored by ibis gentle
man with some painful ad
ditions horrid in the ex
treme and which call load
ly upon our government for j
retributivejutlice. Though
; retaliatiou may in the gene
ral acceptation of the term
be cunittiered as deviating
trom the principles of hu
manity—yet a resort of this
kind in retail to the situa
tion of our friends in the j
hands of the enemy, could
•be in no wife detrimental,
bur, on the contrary, would
teach in inhuman toe, that
as the war was waged for
the proteition and freedom
of our citizens, we have a
spirit and fuficient firmnels
to resent thofc abufei.— :
Where one of our brethren
it thus a vi&im, let tws of
the enemy fuffer for the of
fence—Let our government
adopt acourfc ot this nature
and we Ihouli fcon find the
principle of fiarv&tion cease
— < blackholeimpri^o^^^)elU ,
no more heard of—oppref
fion and the thucklcs of ty- |
ranny never more adtninif
tered to the degradation of
the Tons of independence—
let them know th.it wc are
jealous ot our rights and are
determined to iupport them.
In relating the disgusting
particulars it is well that
the public should have an !
idea of the place where our|
Americans are confined. To,
give a full defeription is not I
in our power* but agreeably ,
to information received,
Ms faille Ijlandy where twelve i
Hundred Americans are con
fined, is but little above the
fuiface ot the water and;
from its low situation is
• generally very unhealthy— j
its circumference, about
1600 feet—on this naufeous 1
spot is situated a building of
two stories— 130 feet in
length and 40 feet broad—
and of the upper room 30
feet if set apart for the sick
the remainder of this a
partment now contains 180
American prisoners. In th* •
lower room are 770 mere
cooped op to bteathe the
fame breath and generate
disease by this larrow con- 1
finement—3s©m#reare near 1
this ill: nd on board a pri- <
son ship. In this situation 1
•n the molt rigorous treat- 1
ment our brethren remain— :
the brave tars of our navy
and many of the soldiers of 1
our country art here doom- 1 j
ed to breathe their iaft from i
No.
J» pcff ilence which c-rrei
off three or four of a d,y ~
*md to heighten the poig
nancy of their reflexion',
they are roll hf the Britifli
Agent Miller, "to H.e and
be damned - 7be Kin% bat i 50
acres of land to bury them on."
Among the numerous in
stances of their futiering*,
tliis in particular is worthy
ot record—A boy, an ap
prentice to an American
* merchant, being among the
number of priloners, the
Brill ill officers endeavored
to inveigle him away, and,
by protnifes, to induce him
to enter the navy—during
the procedure, Lt* Black,
3d of the YorUtowu priva
teer, a friend to the boy,
! oblorved “ Joe don't go , ’
, for which he was immedi
jately seized, and forced in
to the Black hole or Dungeon
\ where he remained ten days
ion three quart e* allowance !
[ liajter n Argus .
Outrageous.
In their principles of man
stealing' the Bririlh have
j lately adopted a new meth
od which beggars all former
precedent—We are told by
the gentleman who furniffi,
es ua with the above, that
: 15 Americans were impref
-1 led from the prison ship at
| Quebec and forced on board
the naval vessels in the har
bor—eight of whom wetc
lin the Julia and Growler,
of Chauncey’B squadron cap
tured by the enemy on Lake
j Ontario ! The names of
tbefe unfortunate Ameri
cans, are not recollc&cd,
except the two following—
viz. William Kelly (Ihoe
maker) of the 14th U. S.
Infantry—Relidence in Ce
cil county, Maryland—He
emigrated to the Colonies
before the Revolution and
served as a soldier in the
Pennsylvania lire during
that war. This man is aged
52 years and was prefled on
board the Melpomene.
Abase occurieuce took
place in the ccuife of this
management which defences
particular notice, vz. that
when this man was a iked
his place ot reticence,
(whole answer was Mary .
land) the lcoundrel who was
appointed to this deceptive
dutv put down Ireland— and
the poor fellow was imme
diately forced away. Also,
John T< dd, a native of
Prince Gecrgc County, Ma
ryland, ot lb* 14th was
prctfc.i on boa d t».e Regu-
I us. [tliJ.
