And dciails of some horrible pirtocy on the
iin and property of our citizens. In the
whole i atnloguc of offences against civili-

than the crime of piracy. It is a crime nt
which the heart instinctively shudders.—

article which has appeared in one ol the
late numbers of The Eramneri It is an
account of the imprisonment of Mr. l.r.tmt
1 luxt, written by himself. That' groat
master oft lie pathetic, the eccentric Sterne,
has given a picture of the miseries of im
prisonment, drawn from the stores of his
own vivid imagination. As tho Mufti clico-
tuftl mode of producing a powerful impres-
ion, ho took u single captive and shut him
up in his cell, lie then draws an ideal
picture of ihu horrors of the scene. Here,
also, we have the ease ofa single captive,
and that not a picture of the fancy, hut n
natter of fact. The author of the pro-
luetion before us details the results of his
own experience, and delineates the mise
ries ofimprisonment with a degree oftnstc
and genius scarcely inferior to Sterne him-
clf. The article, we arc convinced, will
ho perused with intense interest.
On taking possession of my garret, I
was treated with apiece of delicacy, which
I never should have thought of finding iu
n prison. AVlien I lirst entered its walls,
I had boon received by the under-jailor, n
man who appeared an epitome of all that
was forbidding in his office. He was short
and vfcfy thick, lmd A honk nose, a great’
severe countenance, and a bunch of keys
hangiugou his arm. A friend once stop-
pod short at sight of him, and said in n me
lancholy tone, “And this is the jnilor!”
Iloncst* old Cave! thine outside would
have been unworthy of thee, if, upon fur
ther acquaintance, I lmd not found it a ve
ry hearty outside,—aye, mid in my eyes, a
very good-looking one, and «s fit to con
tain the milk of human kindness that was
in tbec, ns tho husk of a cocoa.
His.wife I found to bo ns great a curios
ity as himself. Both were more like the
romantic-jailors druwn in sonio of our mo
dern plays, than real Horsemongcr lane
palpabilities. The wife, in her person,
was ns light and fragile as the husband was
sturdy. She had the nerves pin fino l.ndy,
and yet went through the most unpleasant
duties with the patience of a martyr. Her
voice and look seemed to plead for a soft
ness like their own, nsif aloud reply would
have shattered her. Upon the whole,
such an extraordinary couple, so apparent
ly unsuitable, and yet so fitted for one an
either ; so apparently vulgar on one side,
The jailer proposed that I should he al
lowed to occupy apartments in his house,
anil walk ocCistouallv in th6'prison gar
den ; adding that 1 should certainly die if
1 Were not; and Iris opinion Was seconded
hv that of the medical men. Telling us,
one dnv, how wmjtnlj he had put it to the
Magistrates, and insisted tnat I should
not survive, he turned round upon me, and,
to the Doetor’saslonislunent, added,“ nor.
Mister will you.” IbeltcVe it was tin-o
pinion of many; but Mr Holmo Stunner
argued perhaps front his own sensations,
which were sufficiently iron.
The. doctor then proposed that I should
he removed into the prison infirmary; and
this proposal was granted. Infirmary
liud, I confess; an awkward sound oven to
tny enrs. I fancied n room shared with
other sick porsons, not the twist fitted for
companions; but tho good-natured doctor
undeceived me. This infirmary was di
vided into four wards, with as many email
rooms attached to them. The two upper
wards were occupied, but tho two on the
ground floor had never been used; and
one of these not very providently {far I
had not yet learned to think of money) *1
turned into n noble room. I papered the
walls with a trellis of roses; I had the
ceiiiug colored with clouds and pkv : the
barred windows were screened with Ven
etian blinds; and when my hook-ertscs
were set up with their busts, and flowers
and a piano-forte made their appearance,
perhaps there was not a handsomer room
on thnt side the water. I took a pleasure,
when a stranger, knocked at'the door,.to
sec him come in and stare about' him.
The surprise on issuing from tho Borough;
nnd passing through the avenues of n jail,
was dramatic. C. L. declared there was
no otlier such room except, in a fairy
talc.
But I lmd another surprise; which was
n garden. The ref wits n littlg yard out
side the room, railed off from another bo-
longing to the neighbouring yard. This
ytirdl shut in with green paili»'gs,^ltdorn-
_ ,v. ,. and vet so naturally delicate on hoth; so

It was the business of this woman to lock
rent. T ctthtrndic.ied tins report in the
Era.it tner will) some warmth. I nhickily,
Mr. Soldi ray had accepted the office the
day before; ami im- vuiiafcquc-ncc •
never made his appearance. At tl
rldil he did nie tho honor to compare mo
with tpn nilie i>esinmi!ina. Ho 1ms since fa
voured mo with sundry lectures and cut-
tjngs-up for miiiering to his own doctrine.
They say he is not sorry. I am sure l
am not; and tliAro is an end of the matter.
All these comforts were embittorod by
unceusing ill-he.ali)i, and by certain mol-
anpholy reveries which the nuturu of the
place did hot help .to diminish.—'.During
the first six weeks tlmsonnd of tho felons

rid execrations or despairing laughter, was
never out of iny cars. When I wont into

the cxpencc may he, the country will jus

the Island of Cuba must be attended to for
there the whole mischief is done—if pira
cy is not countenanced in this Island, it is
connived nt nnd as long as this is the ca?«

Property robbed from our vcsrcls, is open

cotirage thesr; depredations upon the com
merce and lives of people at peace with
Spain the Island must answer for it.
If the authorities < aniiot'rnfi.rcf the laws,

AourcC nnd origin of the mischief must he

sued by Congress will he to compel the au
thorities of Culm to put at) end to piracy
by an immediate resort to theLExTALio-

vessel sailing under the Spanish flag from
Havana to Matnnzas. War was declared
by the United States, to enforce the snfety
and protection of persons and property
tinder the American flag, and the came
■iqiuscs, yet, under stronger circumstan
ces, urge the adoption of vigorous meas
ures against the pirates. Longer forbear

hoped that Congress will turn their iramei

the cries of poor suffering humanity calls

Con. La Fayette, has signified Ills in

The Charleston Patriot of Saturday
evening received at the office of the Geor
gian, furnishes the following information.
A letter received at Louisville from Illi
nois, states that Mr. Clay had received
heard me os she; was ; going down stairs,
and stud the nextday, “Ah, Sir, I thought
I should have turned the key, so as for you
not to hear it; hut l found you did.” The
whole conduct of this couple towards me
from first to last, was of a piece with this
singular delicacy.
My bed was shortly put up, and I slept
in my new room. It was on nn tipper
story, and stood in n corner of the qund-
runglc, on the right hand ns you enter the
prison-gate. Thj windows (which had
now been accommodated with glnrs. in
addition to their “excellent .-huttr.>' )
were high up, and barred; but the room
was large and airy, and there was a fire
place. It was designed for a common
room for the prisoners on that story; but
the cells were then empty. The cells
were ranged on either side of the arcade,
of which the story is formed, and the room
opened at the end of it. At night time
the dom was locked ; thin another on the
top of the stair-case, then a fourth at the
bottom, a fifth that shut up the little yard
to that quarter, and How many
more beforc you got out cf the gates, I
forget; but I do not exaggerate when I say
there were at least ten or eleven. The
first night I slept there, 1listened to them
one after the otlier, till the weaker part of
my heart died within me. Every fresh
turning of the key 1 seemed a malignant io-
suit to imwie of liberty. I was alone
and away from my family; I who have
never slept from homo above a dozen times
in my life, and then only from necessity
Furthermore the reader will hear in mind
that I was ill. With a great flow of natu,
ral spirits, I was subject to fits of nervoos
ness, which had lately taken a continued
shape.' I felt one of them coming on, and
having learnt to anticipate and break the
force of it by Sudden exercise, I took
stout walk of I dare shy fourteen or fifteen
miles, by pacing backward and forwards
for the space of three hours. -This threw
me into a state, in which rest, for rest’s
sake, became pleasant; I got hastily into
bed, and slept, without a dream till morn
ing. By the way, I never dreamt of pris
on bat twice nil the time I was there, and
my dream was the same on both occa
sions. .
I applied to the Magistrate for permis
sion to haye triy wile and children with
me, which Was granted. Not so my re
parcelled out the ground in my imagina
tion into favourite districts. I made a
the vote of that state by an overwhedtning
rndjhritv- This fctr.te givc« three votes.

The state of Nermont contains about
two hundred and fifty thousand souls.
The expense of its government is thirty-

Holme Summer, on occasion ofa petition
from a subsequent prisoner, told the House
of commons; that my room End a vifcw
over the Surrey hills, and that I was very
well content with it, I could, not feel ol>-
liged to him for this postUminous piece
of enjoyment, especially when I remem
bered that Mr Holme Sumner lmd done
all in Fiis power to prevent my removal
out efthc room, precisely (as it appeared
to us) because it looked upon nothing but
the felons, and because I was not Conten
ted. In fact, you could not see out of the
windows at all, without getting in' a chair -
and them, all that you saw was the miser;
able men, whose chains had been clanking
from day-light. The perpetual sound of
these chains wore upon my spirits, in a
manner to which my state of health al
lowed me reasonably to object. The yard
also in which 1 exercised was very small.
Mr
point of dressing myself as if for a loug
walk; nnd then putting on my gloves
nnd taking my hook under my nnm, step
forth, requesting my wife not to wait din
ner if I wns late.
I entered prison the third of February
nnd removed to my new apartments the
lGtbof March, lmppy to get out of the
noise pf the chains. When I sat amidst
my hooks, I saw tho imaginary sky over
heqd mid ipy paper roses about me, I
drank in the quiet at my ears, ns if they
were thirsty. The little room wns mv
bedroom. I uftcrwnrds made the two
rooms change characters, when my wife
lay in. Permission for her continnnce
with rpc at thnt period was easily obtained
of the Magistrates, among whom a new
comer made his appearance. This was
another good-nntured man. Tho late
Earl of Rothes, then Lord Leslie. He
heard me with kindness,>nnd his actions
did not belie his countenance. The only
girl I have among seven children \yiis bprn
in prison. I cannot help blessing her
when I speak of it.—Never shall I forget
my sensations; for I was obliged to play
the physician myself, the hour having ta
ken us by surprise. But her mother found
many unexpected comforts ; and during
the whole time she was in bed, which hap
pened to he in very fine weather, the gar
den door was set open, and she looked
upon the trees and flowers. A thousand
recollections rise within mo at every fresh
period of my imprisonment, such as I can
not trust myself with'dwelling upon.
These rooms nnd the visitsof my friends,
were the bright side of my captivity, I.
read verses without end, and wrote almost
os many. When I was fairly settled in
them, the jailer—(I beg pardon of his in
jured spirit—>1- ought to have called him
Governor /—could hardly express his
spleen at my having escaped his clutches
his astonishment was so great. Besides,
though I treated him liandsomly, he lmd
a little lurking fear of the Examiner upon
him; so he contented himself with getting
as much out of me as lie could, and- boast
ing of the grand room which he would
very willingly have prevented my enjoy
ing. My friends were allowed to be with
me tiflTO o’clock at night, when the ua
der turn-key, a yonng ntAn, With his lan
tern, and rnUcli ttfnbitidus gcntillity of
deportment, came to sec them oht. I
believe we scattered afl urbanity about
the prison, till then unknown,
I must not omit the honor of 6 visit
from the venerable Mr Benthnnv, who,is
justly said to unite the wisdom of a sage
with the simplicity of a child. He fcflrid
me playing at battledore, in which he took
apart, and with his Usual eye towards
improvement, suggested an amendment in
the construction of shuttTc-coeks. I re
member the surprise of the governor at
his local knowledge nnd vivacity. “Wfiy,
Mister,” Said he, “bis eye b every where
at once.”
It was intimated to me that Mr South
ey intended to pay men visit. I showed
a proper curiosity to see the writer who
had helped to influence my opinions in
was handsome, nnd lmd a little hectic
spot in either cheek, tho effect of some
gnawing emotion. He told tne in a whis
per, thnt she Wns there for the murder of
her b;i»tnrd child. 1 could have knocked
.Uie fellow down for his imfcclingncss in
molting n show of her: bht, after nil, she
did not see us. She heeded us not, There
was no object before her, 'but what ■ pro
duced the spot in her cheek. The gallon's,
on which she was executed, must have
been brought out witbiii her hearing;—but
mrhhpH sfic heard thut as little. To <re-
iiqve the reader, I will {five him another
instance* of the delicacy of my friend the
undeb jnilor. lie always used to cqrry up
her food to the jkior girl himself, because
as lie said, he did not think it a fit task
for yortilgcr men. Thiswas a melancholy
ease. In general the crimes were not of,
such a staggering description, nor did . the
criminals .appear to take their situation to
heart. 1. found by degrees, that fortune
showed fairer play than I had supposed to
classes of men, nml those who^cemod to.
have most reason to be miserable, were"
not nlways so. Their criminality Was
generally proportioned to their Want of
thought. My friend Cave had^hccoine a
philosopher by the force of j^isr situation,
said to me one dny, when a tlflW batch of
prisoners came in, “Poor ignorrtnt wretch
es, Sir!”--—At evening, whcil'they went to
bed, I used to staud in the prison gqrih-n
listening to the cheerful song with Wnicl
the felons entertained one another. Th<T
heaters of hemp were a still ifierrier race.
Doubtless the good honr^and simple fare
ofthc prison contributed to lnuke the blood
of its inmates run better, particularly
those who were tore.ed to take exercise.
At last, I used to pity the debtors mure,
than the criminals, yet even the debtors
had their gnv patties *nd jolly songs.
Many a time (for they were my neighbors)
have I heard them roar out the old ballad
in Beaumont and Flctche^:—
“l/c thnt drinks nnd goes to betf when '• ,
I-’ulls, ns Uie leaves on, und- dies in QulntaT."
To say the truth, there wps an obstreper-
ousucss in their mirth tlmt looked more .
melancholy than the thoughtlessness oftlie
lighter-feeling felons.

SONG.
The man in theirioon look’p dowA one tnglit,
Where a lad and his Inss were walking;
Thinks he there must lie very huge delight
In this kissing and nonsense tulking.
And so there must, (’tis n well known ease,)
For it lasts both late and early,
So they talk’d him down till they covered bis face
They tir’d his patience fairly.
Then up foso the sun in bis morning beams.
And push’d back bis night cap to greet them,
Says lie- 4 -' 1 As you boast pf your darts and flames
My darts nnd my flames shall meet them—
He scorched them both through the live long day,
But they never once seemed to mind him.;
But laugh’d outright as he skul’d away,
And left a dark world behind him.
Then the map in the moon look’d down itia pef,
And said,! 1 1 believe I can cure yot(;
Tho’ my brother has fail’d, I rauy conquer yet,
It not, I.must try to endure you."
“ Go-home," cried he, “ qnd attend to ray rillos,
And banish all thoughts of sorrow,
Then marry at once, you couple of fools,
And you’ll both be wise to-morrow."
