VIRTUE, LIBERTY, AND SCIENCE.
New-York, April 13.
Extract of a letter from a gentleman
at New-Orleans, to his friend in
this city , dated March 10, 1815.
1 he eminent services of General
Jackson, in the defence of this dis
j tricl would entitle him to every
■ shing that the gratitude of a coun
try could bestow, if his subsequent
conduct had taken nothing from
the account. After the capture of
the gun boats he proclaimed the
eftablifliment of martial law, whe
ther with or without authority, no
body then was disposed to enquire.
A voluntary fubmiflion to the pow
er of one man, who had firmnefs
enough to hold the reins of gov
ernment, and courage enough to
rely p himfelf, in a mod critical
o*crgency, every one then felt to
be required by the occasion. But
recently an indifereet use of that
power in keeping fome regiments
of “bur local militia, on irksome ser
vice at the outposts, after the dan
ger was over, while regular and
draft militia were idle, has raised
difeontents, which, foftered by the
intrigues of Governor Claiborne
(as Jackson supposes) of the French
Consul, and operating on his too
impatient, violent temper, inflamed
bv unwise Counsels, have impelled
him, step by flep, to the mod
(hocking violation of the confuta
tion without neceflity or without
excuse.
The diuatisfaction produced by
an unequal imposition on fome of
the local militia, induced many of
them, in order to elude it, to apply
to the French consul to be recogni
zed as French fubjects* and who
very readily granted them certifi
cates to that effect. Jackson then
issued a general order command
ingall such certificated French sub
jects, (many of whom had been
fighting at the lines while the ene
my was near) to retire a limited
time into the interior, not short of
Baton Rouge. This produced con
fiderahle murmurs, which were
promoted by the busy intrigues of
Gov. Claiborne, who sick of envy,
had seized with avidity the oppor
tunity, of contributing to lower
the man, who had so much eclipsed
him. •
At length an anonymous piece
was published, implicating these
Trench subjects and callingcenfure
on the arbitary conduct of the Ge
neral ; Mr. Loufillier, a member of
the Legislature, a meritorious and
popular citizen, was afeertained to
be the author, and was forthwith
arrested and imprisoned in the bar
racks, where he Hill remains con
fined ; Judge Hall of the U. States
District Court, who issued a habeus
corpus on the application of Mr.
Loufiliier’s couafel, was likewise
arrested on Sunday night, and has
remained a prifon.er in the barracks
ever since. Mr. H———, forindif
creet words uttered in the street,
was likewise arrested. Application
was mndd to the Supreme Court
for a habeas coi pus, but pending it,
he was released, on giving a kind
of security to appear before a
[.Payable half yearlv.
court martial, and the application
was withdrawn at his request
News of peace arrived that day—
Mr. Dick, the United States At
torney, on Wednesday made an
affidavit cf Hall’s illegal confine
ment, and applied to Judge Lewis
for habeas corpus, which was issued,
served and disobeyed. Mr. Dick,
for this act, was arrested, and is
If ill detained in the barracks. An
order for the arrest of Judge Lew
is was likewise issued, but with

ALGIERS.
The editor of the Federal Re
publican, speaking of the expedi
tion preparing against Algiers, ob
serves. that “ the navy will do it
felf credit upon every occasion
where a navy can act ; but how it
is to reduce the city of Algiers, is
not quite so clear—a naval force
cannot carry on landj operations,”
&c. We find however in looking*
into Blyth's History of the War be
tween the United States and Tripoli ,
that Admiral Nelson was able to
make fome impression at least upon
the fears of the Algerines. The
account is thus concisely related.
Salem Gazette.
“ In August, 1803, an Algerine
fleet met an Engliffi frigate near
Malta, and iumtnoned her to bring
to, but having received several
broadsides, the frigate escaped and
gained the pert of Malta. On
receiving this information, 2 (hip.}

the Dey of Algiers ordered all the
Englilh subjects to be thrown into
prison, and their property confifca
ted. Admiral Nelson, when in
formed of this reprisal immediately
failed for Algiers, with a squadron
of several men of war. He then
ordered the fqyadron to advance,
and in the middle of night com
menced a brisk fire ol bombs and
heated balls, which spread fear and
desolation through the city. The
Dey sent a message to lord Nelson,
who replied that he could give no
anfvver for several hours, during
which time, the bombardment con
tinued without intermission, in such
a manner as to cause the moll
dreadful ravages. On the second
message from the Dey, with new
propositions, lord Nelson demand
ed that all the Englilh agents Ihould
beset at liberty, and a complete
indemnity made for the losses they
had luftained, with the relealement
of all the captives. He exacted
besides the futn of 50,000 sequins,
with a protnife that the Dey would
never again make captives of the
Tufcans or Neapolitans.”
