<£ a king wWfimtt fubje£b, filled a Na tion of but little confrquence.” The iflue of which was, that the abandoned chiefs became much exafp-rated a gain'd thdie who had flocked to the standard of tne Shawnee chief. The deferred chiefs full continued to reside at the Tawa Towns, with only a few adherents. Finding no hopes of re calling their(objects, their next slept i was to prejudice the mind of general Wells, the Indian agent, again!! those. who adhered to the prophet—this end it appears was accompli died. Gen. Weils could never treat with the com bined Indians 014 friendly terms ; bfitj adhered to their enemies at the Tawa Towns, whose object it seems, wasal-j so to prejudice the Americans againltj those alfemblinjj at Greenville. From this circutnftance a jealvnify. hasarifen ‘between the contending parties—which proves that the Indians have their’ schemes*and intrigues, as well as the v,-kites. One of theoratois observed, “ Congrefshas 3 great many good tnen, j let theiii tab'* away Wells and put one of them theri* —we (fate him. i( they will not re'■:eve hhn, r vctvili * When the Indian;, are cotning in to hear the prophet, he lets doors to (lop them. He asks Them, why go ye to hear the prophet ? He is one poffeifed of a De vi! ! I would as foun go to fee a dog with’ the mange. When we talk friend iy with him, he will not listen to us— and.from beginning to end his talk is blackguard —he treats us like dogs.” Tney complained much of the whites making encroachments upon their territory, and of a few individuals who had made (ale of lands beyond of demerkatioo, but their dtfpohtions towards us appeared friendly. lilac [ticket observed—We have deluged the counfry with blood to satiate our revenge, and all to no purpose—we have beep the fulferers. The Great Spirit has (hewn us the vanity of these things, we have laid down the toma hawk never to take it up again, if it is offered to us by the French, Engiifh, Spaniards, or by you, our white bre thren, we will not take it.” * Being interrogated as so the rt- Viovcil of Wells , they observed their meaning was-, they would ot adhere to him. •—ii J he following is said la be the speech of ) Blue Jacket, delivered to the Mes sengers, when m the neighborhood of Greenville : Brethren —We are seated who heard you yelierday. You will get a true relation as far as we and our cou rt ekl ions can give, who are as follows: Shawnees, Wyandois, Potawatomies, Tawas, Chippiwas, Wirmepaus, Ma lominefe, Malockefe, Secawgoes, and one man from the north of the Chip pswas. Brethren—you fee all :h?fe men fitting before you, who now speak to you. ‘ * About eleven days ago, we had a council at which the Wyandot, (who was the elder brother of the red peo ple) spoke and laid, God had kindled a fire, and all fat around it. In this council we talked over the treaties with the French and Americans. The Wy andots and the French formerly mark ed a line along the Alleghany moun tains fouthetly to Charleiion, (S. C.)i no man was to pass it from either fide, j AY hen the Americans came to fettle i over the line, the Engiifh told the In-! duns to unite and drive of the French, 1 until the war came on between the Brt | tifh and Ameiicans, when tt was tola them that king George, by his officers,! directed them to unite and drive the I Americans back. A i After the treaty of peace between the Engiifh and Americans, the fam mer before Wayne’s armv came out, the Englifn held a council with the in T dians, and told them, if they would turn out and finite as one man, they might surround the like deer in a ring fire,,and ciefiroy them all. The Wyandot spoke funbei*!iivcoun I cil. We fee, said he, there is like to !be war between the Engiifh and our . white brethren, the Americans. Let us unite and consider fufferings we Irave undergone from Intcrfei i;jg in the wars of the Engiifh. They have j often protnifed to help ns, and at la.fi, j when we could not withdand the army i which came again!! us, and went j£> the | Engiifh fort for refuge, the Engiifh ! told us, I cannot let you in ; you are painted mv children. Ii was then we saw the British dealt treacherouily with us. We now fee diem going to war again. We do not know what they are going to fight for. ! Let us, my bie hren, not interfere, was the speech of the Wyandot. Further, the Wyandot Gsid, I speak to you, my little-brother, the, Shaw 'nets'at Greenville, and to Vou our hi de brothers, all around. You aopear. to be at Greenville to serve the Su premeKulcr of the Universe. Now fend forth your fpeecfres to ail our brethren far aroud us, and let us all unite to feekfor that which fhail be for our eternal welfare, and unite outtclves in a bond of eternal brotherhood.— These, brethren, are the fenriments of all the men who fit around you—thev adhere to wh t the elder brother, the Wyandot, has (aid, and these arc their feniiments. It is not that they are a fraid of their white brethren, but that 1 they ,desire peace and harmony,'and j not that their white brethren could put them to great neceffuy, for their for mer arms were bows and arrows, by which they got their, living. There i* one difficulty in the way, that is, our| white brethren are building forts at 1 Chicaga. We would rather our white biethren would not build these forts. j Your red brethren are not acquain ted with the sentiments of the British i Indians, or those on the IviifTifippi afar off. But these are the sentiments of all thoie we have all ready mentioned, to vm : If our white brethren are go ing to war, their red brethren have for- j rued a determined resolution to inter-: sere no way, but to fit full and- mind their own concern. These are the fen- 1 timents of those who fit before you,-—• And now, brethren, agreeable to the articles of the Treaty at Greenville, if we are dilfatished, or any one interfer-! ed to make any disturbance among us, we are to lei each other know of it.— Brethren —the dilturber of our peace 1 appears to be seated at Fort Wayne (Mr. Wells) who I think is a bad man. I I want you to take him away, and place a good perlon in his stead : this ad-j i drefled to the governor at Chiiicothe, I and wifn him to communicate it to the President. Here Blue Jacket ended.

Isaac Murphy, with a load of sugar from Point-Petre, Gaud. ! bound to Philadelphia, faded from Point Petre lon Sunday morning the sth September. About | noon difeovered a frigate in chafe of her. She j being off Baffetcrre, the frigate Handing too I Uofe in was bred on aud edged away to avoid I the (hot a little to the northward of Basseterre. j | She began to fire on the Sally, when capt. Mur- : ; phy wilhing to avoid molestation from them,; I hove about and flood in under the la (id. We ; j were about four miles distant when they began j j to fire, but getting in under the End was soon i becalmed, and the frigate being in the offing, t i I and having every thing out, fcon came within reach of us with her (hot, which wCre mo.. m judiciously fired, forneiimes falling far fhoi <- o us, and sometimes far beyond us, lhe;e uno pened ty be -an eighteen poaad-arkrtd about ax men on the part of the toad where we (tocTiri, which began to fire on their, boats,.but_as t.iv.y took care to keep the schooner between therri and the IS pounder, they were in a mannei fe ci u red from its fire. &Onc of-the -ihot fell prt.ty near cue of their boats aud beat the water over her. -As soon as the boats came within reach of us with their mulketry, they began fir.r.g on us, and were veyy near killing tire mate and one hand, in hauling down tha, colors, as they parti cularly alined at them. They were toon along fide, aud boarded her, but did not treat us a3 citizens of a nation in amity with them, but as if they had got a French prize. They fell to rummaging the vessel, plundering her of what fruit they had on board, (lores, &c. And not. finding ally thing more convenient, they plun dered the captain of his pillow cafe.to carry fruit on board the frigate in ; eat'of his tweet > meats, <xc. A proper feene of tjonfufioa then ensued. They opened the ’ captain’s truks, took out all his papers, and hurried him on board the frigate, and ordered him aft. His fir ft fafu tation was, a damned Yard.ee rascal, he ought to be hanged. He told him he gloried :r. the name of a ‘Yankee — Old Washington and Bunker’s Bill forever ! and that it was more than thev dared to do to hang him, and he was not afraid of them, and thought that they (hould give him credit for (landing so many (hot from them They sent one of their boats on board, tockkout captain Murphy’s people, capt. TowiffinfTfis mate and an apprentice of his, who were paften gers, carried them on board the frigate, aud pu a centry over them ; took them in betweet decks, and dripped fome of them. On captaii Townlin’s remondruting againtl Inch treatment a sergeant of marines informed him that he had his orders aud moil execute them. Captai Towniia informed him, he hoped it would no be long before his country would relent fuel indignities offered to her citizens, and such our rage-s on her commerce. This was done by tie express orders of that pitiful fee uadi-el iieut Dix, vvlio had command of the frigate m th alrfence of capt. King, who was put ashore i Barhadoes. At night, the gunner, Mr. Braky invited captains Murphy and Tow-fin to his ca I bin, and accommodated them vvitlHuch chee i as he could afford, tor w hich he has their heart’ thanks. One of their officers informed us th? Mr. Brairy was the only officer in the thip win ever paid any attention to those American dp zens who were so unfortunate as to fall into’ tfi (hands of those freebooters. They put tw j midlhipinen outboard captain Murphy’s fclioone 1 and (is featnen. The largetl ot the midshipmen. j -he night (lie was captured, got as drunk as - lord On her arrival in Antigua he barteref | part of capt. Murphy’s prcviiious, wdth the Bun Boats, for fruit, See. They took his pendant ! away from him aud his merchant’s tignal.—The figual they returned, and the agent of the snip gave him a pillow case in lieu of the one he had been robbed of. Capt. Murphy paid for fees to the notary, aS.2B 4s. Antigua currency, but , on fiis demanding receipts tor the money he had j paid them, the day after, ttrange to tell, they returned him £.17 of his money, as they knew they had wronged him of it, and were afraid of j being detected in it. From this the American ieamen may fee what a set of rafeals they are.— Capt. Murphy observed to them that he believ ed they were a!! in partnership, none of them - worth much, and that the longell liver was to j take all. This frigate, the Alexander, which ; captured capt. Murphy, a few days before cap tured a brig from North-Carolina, outward j oound, with a cargo of 15,000 dollars on board, j and ordered her into Antigua. They put a : negro pilot on board of her, who ran her athore ; ar “-l Est vessel and cargo, the brig worth 5,000 dollars. They fell in with a Yankee herfe I jockey, observed to him he was carrying contra- I band, plundered him of nine head of cattle and 1 let him go. They took all the Carolinaman’s live stock, poultry, See. on board the frigate and turned him forward with the men, and at ler.gth turned him aihore. Capt. Zudenarof the brig Peggy of New-York, was raptured by the Alexander privateer, his jib-boom carried away, his bovvfprit fprupg, and his brig rendet ed quike leaky in boarding him. They tired into him after they had boarded him, they cot and hacked his companion to pieces with their culnfos. He had a valuable cargo of sugar, coffee and passengers on board. He wasiiot buffered to go on shore while he lay in Antigua. A brig from Martinique belonging to New- London, with returns of his outward bound cargo, was tent in by the Alexander frigate, After they got lum, they told him if he would give them £.150 they would let him go, which i heinftantly did. A handlcire bulinefs this, a | Britilh King’s <hip to turn pirate, and lay o'ur! fair traders under contribution. In fliort, ; after the murder of Pierce, ar.d our fellow-citizens uni board the Chesapeake, what will they not do ? When in a Hate of infancy, old Johnny Bull, to his torrovv, knows what we did; now that we j i have arrived to a hate of nsanhcod, let him K . ware how we take him in hand again, or he nmy : fare worse than he did before.
