SAVANNAH, Oct. 15.1820
TO THE CHAIRMAN OF THE‘
DRY CUI.TURECOMMITTEE,
Sir:—Having, at-your request minutely
inspected tho landgsiihject to the Dry Cul
ture Contract, on the 12th ond 15th days
of the month. I siibntiPtho following re-
port :—
Oa Air. Spalding’s plantation (here are'
275 acres of lend undo cultivation. The
ditches of this portion of the Plantation are'
clear andin good order. There ere 80 acres
of land unoer Bank, not in cultivation.—
Ot this portion the -ditches are deep'and
the water sweet. The banks are ao ar
ranged that fresh water is admitted atovery
tide, into the ditches.
The Plantation known b? the name of
Ward’t is ail subject to the tide except 30
acres which ere secured by banks. Not
more than two acres are under cultivation,,
no part of the plantation (except about SO.
sores) is kept in the condition required by
the Contract.
Col. Myers’plantetinn-is ell under culti
vation except about 30 acres—The uitclies
and drains are generally deep and clean. 1
found the land'flawed in consequence of
breaks in the banks occasioned by the re-,
cent extraordinary high tides,, but'lhe peo
ple were engaged in getting the water off,
andpreparingto mend the breaks, ’l itis
will no doubt he spec-lily accomplished.
Col. Jackson's plantation is nnt under
cultivation except 28 acres. The Banks
uf this place are generally high, and die
ditches dyep widrsweet water.
Of Mr. Bilbo's land about 100 acre! are
under cultivation. The dilchea are. not
kept sufficiently clean f found about is
acres flowed from the water running over
the banks, occasioned by the late liigli title.
About 10 acres of land are subject to the
lido at all Untes. ’
The land of MeisrrScarbrotigh -So others
is subject to the flow of the tide when it is
high. The banks should be raised, par
ticularly die lower bank. This land has
been used es a parture for Cattle dufibg the
last season.
Of Mr. Stiles’ plantation there atea-
bout 80 or 40 acres under cultivation,the re
mainder is not under cultivation. The un
cultivated land has been flowed by the lete
tides in consequence of a break in tho riv
er bank, and the water runnig over the
banka. As soon as the tides recede, the
break should he repaired, wh en tho land
may he kept dry. There is about 10 aeret^ir
this place, adjoining Miisgrove creek which
are subject to ordinary tides.
I lonnd no offensive water at either of
the plantations, I earnestly recommend
that before die next season, the ditches and
drains of die uncultivated lands should be
cleaned and deepened.

PEARSON HARDEE,
Inspector.
From a late English paper. -
poison* assignees p. Rathbone Brothere.
—Mr. Pollock, in staling this case, said it
was Inti his duty tu observe, that the de
fendants, who were Ainerlean factors -ill
Liverpool, and highly respectable, weio
not ot all interested in the casej a ml only
wished, 1n paying dm mm fur which they
were now sued, In have the sanction of a
verdict to assure them that they paid it
when justly due. 'IMtey wished, by this
action, to raise a question to bo determin
ed by a verdict; and they had believed with
e candour and firmness, in the admissions
wliich they had made, winch could very
much diminish the expense of obtaining
suchvetdicl. This validity of a commis
sion of bankruptcy was the only question
to be determined ; the amount of damages
would be determined out of court, by pre
vious agreement. Tint tacts were theses—
Jeremiah and WUHan) Thompson were
subjects or this country, and had carried on
business as partnais Intho wnolen 'manu
facture, in some pari <if Yorkshire, for
some rev*. At the end of a certain time,
one ol them (Jeremiuh)went to the United
States ol America, in conduct there tliut
part of the busiocss of tlie firm which they
hnd'hltherto transacted through servants
or agents, their business being to Send tho
goods which-they manufactured m York
shire lo Liverpool, and make the le'.urns
In cotton or other articles suited for the
Liverpool market. The first question on
wliich they nro'ild have to decide, nno (in
wliich lie hoped tbaro was no doubt, tho 1
os it was the first cast under the new act.it
could not In certain, was, whether a sub
ject of England, beijig abroad, and, at tlie
same lime, both tarrying on business, and
contracting debts here, could 'commit an
act of bankruptcy—whether a lljltlsh sub
ject,residing abroad,was a proper object of
a commission under the great seal. Hav
ing called his lordship's attention to this
K int, lie must submit it-to his decision-:
t lie conld entertain no doubt,that where
a partner in a house here is a tesldent a.
Inroad, and continues to trade here, to con
traoi debts here, and is a *ub|ect of this
realm, he cannot keep himself mil of that
branch of the lair inttnded 4* prevent
those partial distributions afpropany here
complained of. Up to a certain period,
hankroptcy was a Crime, and (hat an act
of bankruptcy could pot then bo -commit
ted out of the realm was owing to wlin't
was, iiiTadt, originally nofietton, bur to
the extension on principle of ah the rules
of law for the protection df prisoners, to
this case, and of that rule which did nnt
admit oTany offence beidg committed a-
gainst those laws beyond ilie limit of their
authority. It was afterwards discovered
to be a desirable object to give coirunission
of bankruptcy a different consIrnctTou, and
view them in Ihe light of an equitable a.I
jostment, and the means of Restoring a
mail who had been mtfurtnnnte rather
than criminal to aorlety. and atrinst, under
thepresentstatnte.lt was determined, as
Ihe commeictal importance of the country
required, to makepersuns not resident at
mentbible to those laws. There could bo
no doubt df Jeremiah being a trader since
he continued to manufacture, to contract
debts, and to ship goods. As to Ihe act of
bankruptcy f itwassuchan act to go O'
brand with the view to frustrate creditors,
and surely, lfso, it wascqn illy so to re-'

in violation of the bankrupt laws. These
were tlie principleson which the facts were
to be disposed of. the facts themselves were
theseGoods were sent to Liverpool,
and thenco shipped to (ho United States.—
The property sought to bo recovered of
the defendants, who wished'only to rest
under the sanction of the court, was the
proceeds of cotton, shipped in return to the
dafendants and assigned, fraudulently, as
ha contended, by Jeremiah Thompson, to
his creditors In New York.
The petitioning creditors' debt tind the
assignment were admitted, together with
some other facts. Jeremiah Thompson re
mained abroad, not merely to defraud Ids
creditors by delay,ho had also made a frau
dulent assignment of these effects, for tlie
purpose' of indemnifying his relations in
America, ,< ho were his suicties for a large
nnuHirit of duties,owing to tho American
government. It was. admitted that prior
to the 81st of May, 1848, his drafts on the
defendants lotlie amount of £70,280 had
been hstionored, and this he must have
been aware f before he gave this assign-
inent.u'hicli.mu-t thereforejltaM been made
with the express intent of defrauding his
English creditors. Mr. Pollock hero road
several passages from the assignment,from
which.it appeared tliatthe assignment was
made because ho was in difficulties j and
that he made the assignment,« considering
that his sureties.Isaac and William Wrighs
iiad a paramount claim. The bond too
was very vague i it assigned no sum, nor
stated that what bonds were pvjd or un
paid, but says that the assignees shall pay
all. that they were called oh to pay, for the
purpose of the assignment) If this had
been acted on, they might have callet
the defendants lo pay the money will _
even showing that any thing was due to ter state,
them, and left the English creditors with
out a farthing.
The commission was read. Tha date
of the assignment was 6th July. 1829. Tho
petitioning creditors’ debt was admitted.
A deposition of Mr. Win. Rnthbone was
put in and read.
A number of letters were also pot in, in
pionfofthe partnership between Jeremiah
and William Thompson.
Mi Brougham, for.the defence, conten
tied in the first place that the assignment
was of no force, as being executed in vio
lation of tho stamp act, and was therefore
no conveyance of any thing j in the next
place, that it was no conveyance of goods
and chatties, seeing that it was a convey*
ance of a contingent debt, to arise out of
the sale of the cotton.
T? disprove the partnership,the brother
William Thompson, was oalled, who sla-
red that his brother went abroad in 1800,
when he was only l5yearsofa«e. He re
turned in 1806. In 1818 lie was again in
England, in the spring or that year, and
then the partnership ceased •, after that
£100,000 had been sent to Ida brothor in
New York, more than he returned. He
afterwards admitted that when tlie part
nership dissolved, it was agreed that they
should, at the end of ten years, divide Ihe
profit* of both concerns.
Mr. Brougham admitted that tho case
was now proved as far as tho partnership
w as concerned, A verdict for the plain
tiff was given, subject ip a reference, sot

Horrible.—Reports equally singular and
shacking are at present In circalalion]hcie
and we give them publicity on tlie verael
ty of a respectable gentleman from Suri
until. It would scent that about four
months ago, a Dutch sloop of war, whilst
cruising off tho Islnntl of Saba, fell in wljli
a ship, the ci.w of which cotrlil nut give
riny accoOnl of her destimfllon, or whence
she came; and having oupapers-to show,
she was immediately taken possession of
by the Dutchman. Shortly after, u scltoo
tier strongly armed and manned, made her
appearance, spoke tlie Dutch sloop of svur,
and claimed tha ship as (ter prize. The
sclir professed to be a Buenos Ayrran pri
vateer, and produced n commission in sup
inrtofher fretensinns. On examination
t was found that tho commission Was Mini
ted to a given’period, and that that period
ha<l expired for some time. Tlie Dutch
man of course very properly took. posses
sion of the schooner also ns a pirate, and a-
tong with the ship carried him to Saha.—
But the authorities there being incompe
tent, they were subsequently carried to Sur
inam for nil' “ . . ..

ship, and was proceeding to Ihe Africao
coast for her unljalluwctl traffic; and that
she was captured,by the brigantine'a lew-
days niter loaving port on her outward
voyage. The crew, however, ttho left the
port with her are missing,and tin satisfacto
ry account is given of them by the pirate,
Our informant states/that one of the arew
of tho schooner offered to become king's

the Dutch criminal proceedings, tho testi -
mony of this man was rejected. From him
however, it lias transpired, that the whole
crew of the Brazilian (hip wdre put Ho
death, harlfg beenffnt put in a boat, and
then filed at and sank tijllre private.
Tha most horrid and disgusting part of
the tale remains yet to lie folds Tne ship
was condemned at Surinam, in conse
quence of-having a slaving cargo on board;
amongst other things, the cargo consisted
of a considerable-quantity of potk in hogs
heads; these were pfililicly-sola, when open
•d by the purchasers, were found to con
tain human carcases cut up into pieces, and
sailed amongst t|ie pork On many pails
of these human remains were distinctl
traced pieces of tat toning w ith which sea
men often m.trk their bodies. Tlie authori
ties on learning thesehOnihle details, took
every possible precaution to prevent them
front being made public, whilst the captain
and crew of the schooner were subjudice.
It is not yet known whether the human flesh
Was originally mixed op with llto pork, or
whether it waslhe work of the pirates. It
Is greatly apprehended thnt these momteis
will getoff; the Dutch criminal prncerdi-ngs
are extremely tedious; thereis a well known
and pr-verldal liability to to bribery; and
the jail is in (most wretched and insecure
condition.' The description of the pitnte
corresponds " ith that given of the vessel
which in April (art plundered the Ad-

will not leave his threat unaccomplished,
and therefore make this statement that the
public may be furnished with both sides of
•he question at the same time, nnd be there
by able to judge between us, for it must be
known that my reputation is very dear to
me, inasmuch ns it cost mo a great deal of
trouble to get what little I tun possessed of.
The house he took me to when we were
(list married he had told mo so many sto
ries nhout that I thought it had at least three
stories, and it all was a mere story—lie had
promised me fine furniture end when I
pined for it he got-mc a pine taole and beat
me with the logs; he had not a chair in the
house, and never even furnished me with a
stool, except thn stool of repentance. I
never drank from a cup of his except the
cup of sorrow; there was not a window in
his house except in white , and then there
was wind 0I1 enough; there wni not n sheet
in Ids house fit for a winding sheet for ono
who had died in a fit, and he was nlwnys
complaining I look airs upon myself, when
ho is the father of every Iiefr I have.
It must be perceived tliut I have been a
shockingly abused woman. Only last Sa T
turday night lie came reeling and fiddling
up to me and'requested to know what he
should send out to the shop and get for me
nml Ihe children, and to last over Sunday;
I told him a cents worth of snuff, a biscuit,
a candle and a pint of rum—now I almost
live upon snuff,and he refused it; and it is
too much for flesh and ablopd to hear; my
Extract of a letttr received in Charleston,’
dated
MOBILE, October 10, 1820.
With this month commences the new
season of business, und hut for the preva
fence of yellow fes er w Inch has existed here
fur some time, we >|)gu(d have Iiad a por
tion of the new crop akeedy in market.—
Tito late favourable change in tho tseather.
will no doobt tend to check the progress of
discaae, when we shall look for a more ac
live state of things.
.Notwithstanding there are occasional re*
ports of rot, &c. from several Districts, we
still t-nertain tlie'opinion that our crop will
exceed one hundred thousand bales. We
learn there is tsonsiderablo in the interior
prepared for mnrke't, and may be shortly
looked for. It is impossible to say wlial
prices may he given for the first that comes
in, as wc understand there is two or tinea
individuals who are*anxious to buy; hut
we think they will snot; bo supplied, when
tlie article must, in our opinion, go dow
vorylou.
