Halifax Court-M'ar:ini. —The mock trial, but aftual murder of John W ilfau, alias Jenkin Rat joid, at Halifax, prefcnts circumstances mortify ing to the hirelings of Britain, and the federal party in this town. They have rcpitefented the men takSn from the CSefapeakp to be the iden tical deserters from the frigate Halifax, while at Norfolk ; and that osfihmodqre Barron knew them to be on hoaro, t,rough ho returnee. an c vafive anfwe? to the enquiry of capt. Ham pbries. They have also asserted, that t.'io Pre sident cletigned'y slated, that the men claimed bv the Britiih consul as deserters from the Hali fax, Were native Americans, when in fail they were Englilhnicn. Tliefe (T rtions are proved to be erroneous, by the report of the trial. The men mentioned m Adapt** Berkley’s or ders to have been on board the Chcfnpeake, were ailed-red to be deserters from the Beilona, Bell id?, Triumph, CbichelUr, Halifax and Zenobi i. The an fiver of cammcdore Barron was, that he knew'cf no men of fuck deicriptions to be on board tbs Chesapeake. The men demanded by Lord Townfen J, thro’ the Britiih consul at Norfolk, as Alerters from the Halifax, were named Aill, North Hubert and Rat feed , those taken by capt. Humphries from the Chesapeake, were named Story, Mar t's War; and Wilson. The three firft are ac knowledged by the Britiih to be deserters from the Melarnpus ; and we know they were taken by thatvefli.l from the American brig Neptune, capt. Crafts, of New-York. Retford, who is said to have deserted from; the Hahfax, enteied under the name of Willfon. Lord Townsend declares, that when he visited the Chesapeake’s rendezvous at Norfolk he did rot fee him, nor did any f the Leopard’s crew fecogzie him, though it :r ibid he formerly be longed to that !bip. When a man therefore was not recognl -red by his fbiprnates, how could it be expedit'd ov sup poled, Com. Barron (hon'd Itaotv he was.a. deleft <r; End v.'i.. ■; is.the evidence to tVkft tociats the charge so often made againil him ? It appears even from this document, that ti:; ren claimed by the Britiih consul as defer,err, fiom the Halifax, and who as the Prdldent or • the Pasted Stales affirms, I! had been proved to be native Americans/’ were not o:i board the Chesapeake, except Ratforcl, who adorned ano ther name; and it has not been fahsfaclorili proved that he was an Englifhrnan. If clearly appears, then, that Com. Barron avoided the en- Lhnents offuch of the deserters from the Hali fax, as had been either recognized or claimed by their officers, and that there was no -cause for tin £.ofs attack on our National Sovereignty. Hence, then, the outrage mult be viewed by *d’rue Americans as an unprovoked and wanton ditplay of that arrogance and cupidity which is so peculiar to'the Britiih nation; a chara&ei ‘ wtuch has had a tendency to deprive them <•{ tie confidence, friend (hip and refpeft cf the gitatefl portion of Europe,- and is rapidly verging tbero to tiie (hades of run and debasement, if net of annihilation.
