Christopher Orr, Acl’mr. March Sift, 1815. (tds) 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 drawn. 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.} of the line and 2 frigates set out without delay in pursuit of the Bar. barian iquadron, which they over , took, and funk several of their vef. (els. Qll the news of this disaster, 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.” NAVY ToaRD.
