FROM THE IK1 HMAfi. PiRA< Y In the early part ol Ju,. I sailed from Pnila- delphia in the Schooner Mary, <>n a voyage to New Orleans. My pr.ucipai object in going round by sea was the restoration- of my health, which ti <<! been tor many months declining.— Hi vug -otTii triends in New Orleans whose commercial operations were conducted on an extensive scale, I was charged with ;he care of several sums of money in gold and silver, amounting altogether, to nearly eighteen thou sand dollars This 1 communicated to the Captain, and we concluded to secure it in the b-«si m.vmar ib.V ur circumstances would ad mil. A ji’.a-ik was accordingly Liken off ihf- ribs oft ‘<3 Schooner m mv own cabin, and the money being deposited in (he vacancy, the plank w.i- ti toed -down in its original place, y.i I tjie cearns tided and tarred over. B ing to ts rshevnd r-.uii any apprehension that the money would be louud upon u-< in case ol an ahack from pirates, my mind was somewhai casi<:r vVhal ottier article^ of value I could co.ivotn; oily carry about me, I did so. 1 bad brought out aqnintily of bank-notes to ihn amouu oijifteen thousand dollars Part of' these 1 c.ius< i to be cuclully sewed in the fc ft i.ij’iJ or mv coat, supposing that in case o my being lost at sea my coat, should my bod', be found would still contain the most valua bio of my eff-els. The balance was carefully quiited into my black silk cravat. Our crew consisted of the Captain, nrni four men, with a supply of live stock for the Vi.ivngr 1 and a Newfoundland dog valuable u* his"fidelity and sagacity. He had once saved his master from a watery grave, when ho had been stunned and knocked overboard by th sudden shifting of tne boom. I was the only passenger. Our voyage at first was prospe rous and tuna went en rapidly. I felt my strength iucroase tho longer we wero at sea; and when we arrived off the Southern coast of Florida, my feelings were like those of aoothoi man R-turmng health danced ««ily tiironjh not rein*, Nursed ay tnc clunata wuere attraction reigns. Ii was toward the evening of thp 14ih day, two hours before sunset, that we spud a sail astern of us. As twilight came on. uneared us with astonishing rapidity N ght closed, and all around was unpenetrable darkness.— Now and then a gentle wave wouid break a gainst our prow and sparkle for a moment, and at a distance behind us we could see the une ven glow of light occasioned by the foaming oi the strange vessel The breeze that filled our pnnv'iss was gentle though it was fresh. “3«e ivnlk’d trie waters like a thing of life, And aesmad tud.irc the elements to strife.” We couraeii our way steadily through the niglu; though onc<* or twice the roaring of the waves increased so suddenly as to make ms be lieve that we had passed a breaker At the time it was unaccountable to me, but I now be- iiovo il to be occasioned by the bark behind u-, coming rather nearer in the darkness of Ibo tnght. At midaight I went on deck.— Nothing but au occasional sparkie was to be aeon, and the ocean was undisturbed Still it was a fearful and appalling darkness, and ip spite of my endeavors I could not compose myself At th<* windlass, ou the forecastle, three of the sailors, like myself, unable to .sleep, had collected for conversation. On joining them, l found our tears were mutual. They all kept their eyes steadily fixed upon the unknown vessel, as if anticipating some lireifd ful event. They informed me that they had put their arms in order, and were determined to stand or die. Shame to tha spirilthat would shrink in fright, When duly catia him to tl»’ ensauguiot J tl^tit. At this moment a flash ol light, perhaps a musket burning priming, proce ded from the the vessel in pursuit, and we saw distinctly that her deck was covered with men. My heart almost failed me. I had never been in battle, and S knew not what it wa*. Day at length dawned, and setting all her canvass, t»ur pursuer gained alarmingly upon us. It was evident that she had followed us the whole night, being unwilling to attack us in the dark. In a few minutes, she fired a swivel and came alongside. She was a pirate. Her boat was lowered and about a dozen hideous looking ob jects jumped in, with their commander at their head. The boat pushed off, and was nearing us fast, as we arranged ourselves for giving her a broadside. Qjir whole stock of arms cpnsjst- PY .«* no han't, or overmen tn*ke tide* to Land, J>once The most horrid imprecations were ut tered against us, and threats that fancy cannot imagine. A wretch, whose black, shaggy whiskers covered nearly his whole face, whose eyes were only seen at interval from beneath iiis bushy eye-brows, and whose whole appear. ;«nco was more that of hell hound, than of a human being, approached me with a drawn cutlass in bis hand. I drew one of my pistols, and snapped it in his face; but it flashed rn the pan. and before I could draw the other, the pi rate with a brutality that would have disgra < ed a cannibal, struck me over the face with his cutlass and knocked ine down. I was too much wounded bv the blow to resist, and the blood ran in torrents from my forehead. In this situation, the wretch seized me by the scalp, and thrusting bis cutlass into mV cravat, cut it through completely I felt the cold iron glide along my throat, and even now the very thought makes me shudder. The worst idea I had ever formed of human cruelty seemed now realized, and I could see death staro me in tile face. Without slopping to examine the cravat, he put it in his pocket and in a voice of thornier exclaimed, “Levez vousl” I ac cordmgly rose upon my f-et, and he pinioned my hands behind my back, led me to the gun wale of the vessel, and asked another of the gang m French, whether he should throw me overboard. At the recollection of the scene I am still staggered. I endeavoured to call the prospects of eternity before me but could think of nothing except the cold and quivcrless apa thy of the tomb. His infamous companion re plied “Il est trop bonne heure I’envoyer au dia ble,” and led me to the foremast where he tied ;ne with my face to the stern of the vessel.— The cord9 were drawn so tight around my arm-» and legs thnt my agony was excruciating In this situation he left me. On looking round, I found them all employed n plundering and ransacking every thing we had. Over my left shoulder, one of our sail ors was strung up to the yard arm, and appa rently iu the last agonies of death; while bef ore me. our gallant Captain was on hu knees and ^egging for lits life. The wretches were en eavouriog to extort from him the secret < f uur money; out for a while he was firm and u lUntless. Provoked at his obstinacy, the> xtended Ins arms and cut them off at the el bows. At this, human nature gave way. and me injured man confessed the spot where w - had concealed oi.r specie. In a few minu'e- u was aboard Ui ir own vessel To revong* themselves on our unhappy Captain, when they tad satisfied themselves that nothing else wa- uidden, th y spread a bed of oakum on the deck before me, and after soaking it through with turpentine, tied (he Captain on it, filled his mould with the -nme combustibles, and set i tic whole on fire. The cries of the unfortu riate man were heart-rending, ami his ngoni. s must have been uuutterable; but they were soon over. All this I was compelled lo wit n ss Heart sick with the sight, I once shut my eves, but a musket discharged close to iny .•ar, was a warning sufficient to keep them open. On cast ing my eyes to the stern of the vessel I di-covered that the boatswain had been nail ed to the deck through his feet, and his body spiked through to the tiller. He was writhing :n the last agonies of crueifixion. Our fi.th comrade was out of sight during all this (rage ly; id a few minutes however he was brought upon deck, blindfolded He was then conduct ed to tiie muzzle of the swivel, and command ed to kneel. The swivel was then fired off, and bis head was dreadfully wounded by tlie discharge. In a moment alter, it was Kgomz ing to behold his torments and couvnl9ions, language is too feeble to describe them I have seen men hung upon the gibbet, but their de'aih was like sinking into slumber when com pared with his. The flesh will quiver where the pince9 tear, The blood will follow where the knife is driven.” Excited with this scene of human butchery, one of these wretches fired bis pis|ol at the captain’s dog. The ball struck his shoulder and disabled him; he finished him by shooting him again, and at la^t by cutting out h:s tongue!! At this last hell-engendered act, my blood boiled winti indignation at such savage brutality on a helpless inoffensive dog!^ But I was unable to give utterance or action tor my feelings. There’* always burning In the freeman's soal f • A sacred flimc, tenacious ofcontreul; From heaven decended and to heaven allied, That glows with lustre an the sufferer’s side. Seeing that the crew had been every one despatched, I began to think more ol myself. My old enemy, who seemed not to forget me, once more approached me; shockingly be smeared with blood and brains. He had stood by the side of the unfortunate sailor who suf ferod before the swivel, and supported him with the point of his bayonet. He dre-v a sti letto from his side, placed its point upon my heart & gave it a heavy thrust I felt its point touch my skm; but the quilting of my bank bills prevented its further entrance This aavage monster then ran it op my breast, as if inteo ting to divide my lungs, and in doing so, the bank bills fell upon tbe deck fie snatched them up greedily and exclaimed. *“AJti! iaisse* oaow voir ce qut re9fe. ,> * My dresb, in a few moments was ripped to pieces at the peril of my life. He frequently came so near, as to tear my skin atm deluge me with blood; but by the mercy ol providence, I escaped from eve ry danger At this instant, a heavy, flaw struck the Schooner, and I heard one of the pirates"say “Voila un Vaisseau!” They all re treated precipitately, and gfiinrng their own vessel, were soon out of sight. Helpless as I now was, jLhal the satisfaction of knowing that the pirates h^d been frighten ed by the appearance of a sail. But it was impossible for me to see it. Still tiwk to the foremast, 1 knew not what was my prllpect of release. An hour or two elapsed after they left me and it was now noon The sun played violently on my head, and I felt a languor and debility that indicated approaching fever. My hbad gradually sunk upon my breast, when I was shocked by hearing the water pouring into the cabin windows. The wretches had ‘-entiled t!i<* vessel, and left me pinioned to go down with her. I commended my spirit t<> my My ker, and gave myself up for lost. I felt myself gradually dying away, and the fi t thing that 1 remember was the foamingnoise of the waves This was occasioned by a ship passing !>y me. i was taken in, restored to Health, and am now a poor ru»nv-d he'pless man. tain. As, however, tbis occupation of Bo logna has only been known a few hours in the Government of Louis Philippe, let os wait for (he decision of the Cabinet before we complain or threaten. Let us hope that this progress ol despotism m the South of Europe may, ere it be too late, open the eye9 and raise the courage o! even a Perrier Administration The conduct of the Austrian forces in Mo dena and Parma has of course been severe and brutal. There are no troops in Europe le'siF ro&xna^r. Extract of a letter, dated, London,31^1 March, 1831. The Old World is breaking up. Tha Clay tors of the Image are crumbling. There must be a war. Young France will not look on and see the brave Poles devoured by hordes of Russians,—or the flame of Liberty in Iuiy smothered by the Anstr an extinguisher. The sympathies oi England are undoubtedly in favor of Poland & Laly; but at prescut these sympathies are absorbed in the great question ot reform;—A question which may be consul ered as settled, if the King stand by his Mi nisters. But he is assailed strongly by some mem bers of his family in opposition; and feeling no great reverence for Kuigs, ur confidence in them I shall not be surprised to see tbe same trick played with the preseut, as with the last Whig Ministry [A tecent regulation of the Post-Office ad inns Foreign nsws papers at 31 each.] But what is tbis we are toid? It, is »->id id private and in public, ‘that h Protocol signed id London, ou tbe l?th March, which sanctions the occupation of Luxembourg and Liege, by the Prussian troop*—the Scheldt by an English naynl fiwee—Moos, Brugs, and Oa- rend, by an English army—and Nanntir, Bros* sels, Tournay, 4tc. by French lorces!” This army of occupation, and this fleet of inspection and order, are to be stationed m Belgium for twb objects—first to prevent a warbetweeft civilized, less moderate in victory, less kind, that country and Holland, i e. prevent an at- towards their enemies and leak anti-barbarian than the Austrians In Modena they have trea ted with cruelty and indignity the best and most virtuous citizens. They placed the Duke on his throne by the force of foreign bayonets, and at the sacrifice of the lives of his subjects, and every step from Austria to Modena of this beloved Monarch," has been stained with blood! For such successes the Duke has at tend ed at the Cathedral! sung for hours aTe Doum! nd rendered thanks to Almighty God for hav ing enabled him by force of arms to reduce to momentary subjection the unhappy and indig nant people over whom Heaven has called him to govern!! All these Italian Princes have commissions from Heaven! L is most extraor dinary, however, that they do not demonstrate the divimty of their commission by the work ing of miracles. Until then, we bold and dar ing heretics venture to question t h eir patient rights; and if Modena is not to be permanent ly occupied by Austrian troops, in a very short time thip Duke wiii be agnin compelled to make an excursion into foreign parts 1 assure you that the Modena Revolution has not terminat ed In Belgium we are not marching. On one side there is the French Government atraid of offending—on another, Holland preparing for w«r—on another, Prussia, ready to occupy Luxembourg!} and Liege—and last of all, there are at London an assembly ot Protocol ists. who meet in Downing street, and legislate for the hopes, wants, and wishes of nearly four millions of people. But what is the B^lgiai To the Editor of the Morning Chronicle. Paris. March, 27 1831 Sir—The Austrian-, have enter d Bologna! Tlie Euperor, when he made his Proclamation m favor of “order" and '‘Despotism," declar ed (bat the Austrian troops were *'in the fir-t instance" to enter Modena antf Parma. The lovers of peace, at all hazards, and at all pri res, said, that although the “pacific" Emperor poke “of the first instance," yet really he had no intention of proceeding into the Roman Slates—and that if any mistake the troops -hould proceed so far as Ferrara, that they vould arrest their march at the birthplace of Arioato, and not incur the indignation and r<' roaches, tbe anger and resentment ol France! From hour to hour these assurances have been made in Le Temps (which of late has changed ns colors;) in the Journal des Debats, which no later than yesterday recommended war in case the Austrian troops should attompt to es tablish themselves as tbe poltcoof tbe Roman States; and in all the Court Circles and Litera ry Salons, where it has been laid down as a *ort of axiom that Ferrara would be the limit ol French forbearance Bat 4 at length tbe Au.« trians have entered Bologna! and the peace party are to-day biting their lips and cursing their imprudence in not even consenting be forehand to the entry which has been made, ii d to which they must submit or declare war. The Temps, of to day has however, with its accustomed ability, thought of a remedy for this evil, and it says, “Lo-t us wait"—“This is the result of th- negociations or policy of the Me Ministry.” “VVe cannot know tbe result of ;ho new system of our tie* Cabinet before the middle of April; and, in fine, they were for waiting till the mischief is done and then they will exclaimed, “It is too late to help it!!’*— Although, however, the “p ace party’ ? has not yet aboodoued its hopes—the nat.on has nearly lost its patience. All rea-onable and respecta bit-citizens unquestionably admit that war is a great evil, and that p< ace should, if possible, bo preserved; but all citizens who have a grain of common sense, and whose love of high pri ces does not get the better of their judgments, must also admit that after the Revolution oi July m France, if despotic and absolute Gov ernments shall succeed in crushing the spirit and love of liberty in other lands, they will afterwards unite to attack that Revolution which wots the parent of the rest, and which these Despots only affect to respect because it is powerful, and until they have succeeded it crushing all its allies. In the cases of Modena and Parma, the ex cuses which were made by the Court of Vien na, though frivolous and unjust, were yet found ed upon something like tbe pretext of family alliances, and tbe necessity for supporting the dignity and honor of Austrian Princes; but the case of tbe Papal States admits of no such subterfuge—and as Austria is arming every where—has ordered a new levy of troops—has just made a loan of 100 million of francs—oc cupies Modena and Parma and ere this domi nates in Romania, and will occupy all central Italy, it is high time for Louis Philippe to be up and beet ir himself unless he desire* tu be a witness to the third restoration. If liberty shall be crushed in Spain, Portugal, Italy, Po land Belgium and Germany, she will uot long remain uaaswiled in France, or even Bn- Government doing? What is the policy ot th» Regent? Who and what are his Ministers? What is tbe conduct of the Members of the Congress! And above all. what are the peo ple about ? Lei me answer these questions iu a few words. The Belgian Government is divided ! The most powerlul party still entertain some hopes of a reunion to France—of at least the Duke of Nemours for King. Another party, consid ering this as impossible is favorable to an Eng lish alliance, and to tbe selection of Prince Leopold, of Saxe Coburg. A third party is for postponing all these considerations until tbe prehmenary question is disposed of; and that question is, “What is Belgium—its limits—ter nloiy-populatiou?" This party ih divided into two sections—one for immediate declaration ot war against Holland, inorder to retain possessi on of Antwerp, Maastricht, and Luxembourg by force; and the other section is for negociatiog with King Wdliam- for mutual concessions—for yielding up pari of the provinces of Luxem bourg and Hamauit for the purpose of secur ing Luxembourg to Belgium. Thus the Gov ernment is divided—*and now the Ministry is dissolved. What is the policy of the Regent? National! truly national! Ho is opposed to the system of Protocols! H .s for demanding the strict ob servance ot tbe principle of non intervention. Ho is for relying or themselves, and not on France, or England, or Prussia—but on wear y t<>ur millions of united B-. igians He looks to Poland and derives consolation from the no ble and and successful exertions of those brave and devoted patriots; and he hopes to raise the enthusiasm and valor of tbe Belgians to the same degree of excitement. In this he is mis taken He must calculate upon the coldness of the Belgian character—-upon the lukewarm ness of the capitalists who were tbe friends of the fallen dynasty—and upon the opposition or secret conspiracies of the Orange party The regent has a host of difficulties to contend with, and the last though not least, is the uncertainty of the Policy of the French Government. Who and what are the Ministers of the Re gent.* On this head tbe information which we are in possession of to-day is not more satisfac. tory. The Cabinet ib dissolved-a new adminis tration is formiag—various names are announ ced as likely to form it—and we must wait eignt and forty hours before we can pronounce an opinion. What is the conduct of the Members of Congress?—Some are still conspiring ^or the Prince of Orange—but they are few, obtenre and anti-national. Some (the majority) are sighir,g and pressing for a re-union to France. Belgium is too smalt—too powertes*—too di vided, to form an independent kiugdom for any great length of time. An union to Holland is impossible—to Prussia, impossible —but to France, both possible and desirable, provided Great Britain would consent. And wbat are the people about? They are preparing for war! They are first of all for fixing the territorial limits of Belgium. They say with truth that it is useless to elect a King until there be a kingdom to offer him :— and that until the limits of Belgium shall be fixed, all other measures are provisional and useless! They wish for a war with Holland to decide th*? question. They do not wish war for the sake of war; but they understand that King William wilt not abandon the citadels of Antwerp and Maestncht, or Luxembourg; and they, therefore, wish to appeal to the force of arms. Can this be avoided? Yes, by the re-union of Belgium to France; or by the arm ed intervention of the foreign Powers. But this armed intervention is forbidden by the principles of our July revolution. The re uni on to France will not he sanctioned by Prussia >>r Great Britain. Then a war between Bel gium and Holland is inevitable, unless the prm tack on the part ol the Dutch Government; and second, to enforce on Belgium the Proto* cols of London and the election of such a Prince as may be agreeable to the Allied Pow ers!! Do 1 pledge myself thdt this Protocol has been signed? By no means: hut I fear it has been, and that even Talleyrand is a party to such an arrangement! If France shall l»o thus cajoled out of her Revolution of 1830, she will take care not to be deceived in 1831, and any Government which shall be a p-»ty to a similar attack on the right of the Bel gians, and on the principles of their rcvolui on, will have a sad tnd short life in regt Dera ted and emancipated France. Whait is li- hnrty to be crushed in Italy—is patriotism to he exterminated in Poland—and are the Bel- gains to be protocoled out of th’ ir rights by the armed intervention of a * non intervening policy." No, no—Trance will not endure this. Poland is still the theme of our snxietiee, our hopes, our fears, and cur love Tin first campaign of the Emperor has falter He thought the revolution wa9 a mere coup d’etat. and hi* called the revolutionist a handioi of brigands! He resorted to his fourteenth ar ticle!" for the beoefii of his faithful and well beloved Polish subjec-'s, and sent a laige army to arrest the brigands, and plenty of cannon to maintain “order.” These lovers of order are always for shooting; and they have a short of patent for putting down insurrection, viz; that of killing all the insurrectionists. This wa- ihe mission of Marshal Diebitsch, but th Pole-& the thaw were too much for him, and he has adjoared (he execution of his task "to a more* convenient season.” What now is the duty of France? It is too c/ear, too obvious to ao infant in leading string* ;o be mistaken by even a dotard or a Dupm! Her duty i9 to aid alone, or to co-operate with Austria; and if the King of Prussia shall indeed he wdling, as it is affirmed that he is then to co-operate also with him; and above all, wuh G. Britian, m preventing by diplomatic nego- editions, the further effusion of blood, and.no sacrifice of a brave and virtuous people. By even tbe Theatres of Vienna, Poland was de clared an independent Kingdom? It was not joined to Russia, though, ns Kmg William, of England is also Kmg ot Hanover, so was tiio Emperor of Russia declared Kmg of Poland. The Poles have refused longei to obey their Kmg? It is a national, and not a party deier- miuating? Their King disputed this—denied it—said that Europe was deceived—that 8 handful of Briganda wero the Revolutionists— and that as soon as his standard should be raised in Poland, the inhabitants would flock try thousands to the head quarters of In* arms. No one believed this ho; the Emperor; but as Charles X. had tried a Pans. ’amt-Wrtlutm of Nassau had tried in Belg-nm, lo restore order ••nd li-gitimacy by the sword—why the King of Poland was allowed to inarch Russian troops a- gainst Warsaw Bui his troops are defeated —his standard is trampled upon—und, uules* he shall from t me to time reduce Poland to ashes, ami Ihn-> reign silent morales tiid barren deserts, he will never be Kmg of that country, Diebitsch c «ii tell hun (his s-ecret, though n will he n painful deV' lopement The doty, then, of France is clear—that duty is to enforce tho principle of con intervention. Any lumn.r in terference of Russian (roups in the afla.ra of Poland will be a violation of that principle: and Russia has no mure ihe right to take up n»e cause of the Ex King of Poland, than Prussia would have the right to espouse in.it of the Ex King of Holland. I am no lover ot this principle of non intervention, so long as abso lute Governments exist m Europe; but still, •is this principle is adopted *lor the benefit of Kings, let os insist on partaking of ns advan tages—we form part of the people! The policy of the new French Ministry in the domestic affairs of France demands a grea ter space than I can devote to it in tins letter. 1 can say but a few words, but they may ex plain ail I desire to slate for tue moment Tho Ministers have commenced an opposition to the new A9soc;ation.-~Soine have called them id their circulars “oseiess and unneces sary;" others “insulting to the Kmg and to the Government;” and all have indicated that they may become dangerous! No one who holds an appointment, either military or civil, is to be allowed to become a member, and the “orders of the King” are to be taken as tu all who may be refractory. M Sebast min’s circular did not appear with the rest. It has been published to-day. The reason for tbe delay is-tldie.sta ted this morning by his friWdAurtMl as hi* enemies: he bad resigned, and^bgre(pre, issu ed no circular; hut the news from Bologna hav ing determined the Cabinet ob*rnakiDg war against Austria, unless her troops should im mediately retire. Sehastiana again remains in Office, at least onfil this question is decied.— To-morrOW wo shall know more—and to mor row a loan is to be made, which will he very popular if we have war, and extreun ly unpopu lar if we have peace.
