PACCiIt INC.IIVD,I77OAT. • I', The follNwing rettartable story"is,cOpied from an Irish Pape:, rece7fea- yeiterday: le . is to be hoped that the . rtitet4 which have iu this instance re suited frotn,staperstition, will tend to discountenance .such fooat,a pr-6tices, even among the most ;goo- r:int . • Ayb. 20,—A melanchply event, took place on Tuesday night, in• the house of Alexander Montgonwry, tailor, at. Carnioney s Meeting-house. ti~Vrious reports are in circulation concerning it, brit we believe the - following is pretty accurate 1.--- *MOntiotnery;. it appears, had a cow which con tinued to give milk, .as u,sual, but of late.no.butter could- be produced from the milk. Au opinion, has been too king entertained by many people in the country, was unfortunately instilled into the mind of Montgomery's wife, that whenever it oc currild, it..waS occasioned by the cow having been bewitched. •In this opinion she was fortified by the concurring testimony of every old woman in the parish, each of whom contributed her story of what she had seen and known in former times, when, as the Poet expresses it, " Tibby kirn'd, and yet nae butter came." ; Various spells, however, Were pointed out, which would prove effeaual in discovering the Witch, oral least in destroying her power.over the cow. Among Many others, the folloWing .was tried—twelve women were brought to the house, who, after cer tain essential ceremonies, proceeded, in a solemn Manner, to bless the cow. This,, however, alSo failed of success, and the cow was nothing better. At length the family were informed of a ccroMan, named M. liniters,: who resided at Carrickfergus-- ! The tCllest fortune-teller e'er was seen, A witch, that for shia l'ou'd cast hdr catnaps, and gic them advice." They accordingly Went to her, and after . dne con sultation brought her tQ their hotise. On Inetiday forenoon the sorceress got ; a quantity pf the cow's milk, winchshe. proceeded to churn. Tierfamiliar, however, it appears, deceiVed her, the.charm failed of:sucoess, and ~no butter was produced. Three men who had drank o f the milk were soon after, wards seized with excessive' sickness and."V4Oft" vomiting, .and it 'is stipposed ihat this was occa sioned by some noxious ingredients which 4he had infused in the milk. Tbi,enchantress then informed the tinnily, that after night , fall she wolild try an other spell, which could .not tail. Accoidingly,. about ten :o'clock- .-at night, she gave orders for 33/lontgoniery and a young man, who was acCident ally* there, to go to the cow-Muse and - tims coats inside out,- andin that dress to stand'olose:.by the bead ..of the, cow Until they heard from her. They iintnediatvly went out ,and did..as she desired, whilst Montgomery's Avtfe,, his son, a ialabout 20 years of age, nod an old- woman, who was a lodger, remained,in .0041tigse to , witneso the agtrologer's . operations,: ...8 he then . caused the door to be, shut., the ChitnneyJo.,.:.be .anpped, and every crevice .that could adynt. air, ,to be : carefully closed uO.- , , What other measures she puisued are dot kaown, But. we proceed , to. state the...dreadful rcsult:—Montgo mery, the father.„ . arid''the. young luau who Went into die tioCtr.-house, reniained there for several hours until it was day-fill - In, The yoting Man then went and knocked at the door, but net receiving Yity stver,' - helooked thrOugh a wincl'ow, and beheld'ilie four persofis 'within side lying stitched'ottlfietloor.'

Charles •Brisanquet, Evil; called in, and Eramined: . . , State to the conimittee your connexion with the British West India - Colonies, and the Means you', I have had of acquainting yourself with the COlenial Trade ?—My connexion with the British . Colonies is that of Agent or Factor to the Planters in the sale - of 'their produce;. and my means of acquaintance With. the West India Trade.p derived from fourteen years experience in that line 9f business. - Are your concerns with the West Indies, and par ticularly the Windward and Leeward Islands, very extensive ?-- 7 Yes ; they have been very extensive as long as I have : been in business, .and arc still of.; great importance. Have you had, either as a Proprietor,TrUstee . Exe cut or, or Fa&or, the accounts of various sugar planta tions annually, passing through your hinds, so. as . accurately to judge of the total of the expences, and the returnsof these.plantacions ?—1 have had cepa sionallyr.but not universally, the ,elantation ac-." counts through my hands • but my acquaintance is much More With thegeneral resat, than with the de tail of the Island expences, or what passes in the, Island; the •total, oft the ,expenses am certaintr. acquainted with. . • . , . Have you observed that; of late pars, the average returns of sugar plantations to the proprietors have. been inadequate to the capital embarked thereon, and to the necessary expellees of.cultiyation and ma nagement ?—From ahem the year 1801, I consider . the returns of :the West India estates to have been regularly diminishing-in proportion as the expellees ,„ have increased ; and, as fa as I am acquainted with. the .capital invested in the property, the returns have. on an average been very inadequate. In the present, year, I - conceive, on many-estates, the returns will :do little morethan pay the expenses. , What has been' the late ,average price, Duty in ! eluded have not noticed any. price beyond • in the Gazette, for sometitne . past, HoW much ,of Ithe,:tnereantile charge of, (4s. to . 1 Gs.

' four-and sixpence. . What are the principal items which conStitnte.the Island contingencies, which you have stated to . amount to nineteen. shillings and sixpence;?: ! —They may be divided into, two classes, the expense in curred in Great Britain for supplies sent out, and those incurred in. the . Colony beyond. the produe of rum, fur which bills are drawn on Planters at home , for the estates in' the Leeward Islands with which an' principally connected ; the . , ftrstand most expen sive.iteins are grain . and flour, which. being bulky Commodities, enhance the expenCe.,by the freight to a very considerable extent L thenext items of conse .qtretiee are clothing for the negroes, heops, iron work of all descriptions, coppers, millwork, and all the necessary utensils of mptafaCture. The pills from. the ,Colony are drawn for the cost of provisions there latirchased; mules, salaries to Overseers,at ot.herper grins' in trust, Weed taxes, staves purchased, from 'Americans. tor the : formation of hogsheads, timber tor mill-work and .building { whete• those are not~. .fennri linen the spol ; ;..itgainst .these expenceA, the produce of rum,.is in thefirst instance. dedu4ied,, and, for the balatice, : ...bills, as before-mentioned, are drawn upon. the Planter. What are the items that constitute the mercantile ,charge of , fronv to 16s, 6d.,?--The freight, time insurance, . the, ,dock 7 rate,. •or the expences of takingthe sugar, out ef.the ship,,apd placing* in the . wareheuse; Warehouse -rent, wherever the pro perty is,en hand above three months,, and the mer chant's and the broker's commission, and Custom . Ileese fees. . . 1 What is.the Present itate - of the stock on. hand of sugars ; of the demand ; and the expedted imp9rta. tion, and the probable means,of disposing thereof ? great deal 9f sugar has recently been 5914 at Very low prices, but it is not theretbre to he consi 7 .dered as consumed ; and I apprehend. the. stock on hand in the dock, and in the ,liands.of the i . etiner, from the, old crop, very much to exceed all tOrmer preCedent. A. dement% arose in the. spring,. u con sequence of the alteration 4( the bounty on retunedk sugars, 'but as this-exportation took place at. an . un 7 usual, period of the year,,l,apprehend it will be found to militate very much against, the usual demand tier the new , crop.;. this crop I am inclined to suppose will he ascry large one ; it. certainly will be so. in the Wands with which I am more particularly con ' net:led, and Ido therefore.anticipato still greater dif. tipulties than those which have already becn . expe rienced, in the disposal of that crop, when it shall ;.•arrive, ," • Supposing that a .return of barely ten per cent. upon his capital was an adequate compensation to the sugar planter for his adventure, risk, and labour, . in the cultivation and inanufaeture of sugar, what is the beSt average calculation you can state of the net sum, free from every expellee whatever,..which he bught to receive for each. hundred weight of sugar, in order to gird ,him such return ?--Withou't pre; tending to gi‘e a precise answer to this question, I should think, probably, somewhere from twenty-five to thirty shillings. • You mean to say then,, that in the present state of • the charges sixty to sixty-five shillings per hundred weight, . exchisive . of duty, should be the average price. of sugay, in order to give the. planter a bare ten per cent. upon his capital ?—I do not think less than this will give him ten per cent. Can you state, from your :own experience and knowledge, that the . present distress tit the trade is experienced in variotts direElions by, annuitants, wi dows, mortgagees, and others, who have .been.usual-' iy entirely dependent upon._ the colonies,: for their annual income. ?--I am 'quite certain Of the fa& po .y ou consider that ten per cent, is an*lequatee return for property embarked in the sugar colonieS , ? think few estates that have been sold have been purchased:with a view. to a less return ; 'because I do not recoile4 to have hoard of any e,tate being sold fnr 'more than ten years . purchase, upon-. det'rettun of an average of years; .have knOWn to .sold for .much less, at very protracted :periods of ay men t. tie ynn aegtiniate.ct . willt Many ,sale 3 ot e.3tatea.. made Under • the*lntedisacis.tantaeouvrt turn 4 property has been very unsairable,oflift years; :brit .

Are you acquainted, with tlieiprogressive increase price of those articles which are suppliedfromGreat iiritain and Ireland for the use of the sugar plantations, and if so, state to the Conitnittee the:reSult of your experience on that subjea,?,---The increase is imp tuediately within my observation, and, I will give particular instances of it ; but when I explain, in the firgt instance, th`ao liana of the fond; ail- of the clothing, all ,the-utenttils for nianufaattre'and•imple— . inents of cultivation,ore sent from this country, it , will be -obionS to the comMittee, that the increase extience to a West.- India estate has kept 'pace . •with life increase of expellee in this country ; to Whie4 must be added theincreaSed rate of charge at. which they are conv9re.d.

What are the's meaSnres, in 'your Opinion, calcu lated to relieve:the distress of t-ito•sugar plfmters • Any measure whielt_wouhl increase the home con - sUinption would most effeareally prothlce relief; or relief would probably result from any measure which should render sugar. more . searce and .dear.on the. Continent of Europe. What measttrs'Llppiu rimpeive are best catculated to'increase the honte consdmption ?---No pradiezbiti • mode of mtiterird:inVoftance, and rapid died, sug gests to nie; e.,:..(,ept the introduaion of sugar into 'the distilleries. • • _ Do you'conSider that this measure would render the home consumption equal to the produce brought into the'market ?--I do net: What measure do' you conceive best calculated td assist the export trade; ?—I conceiv3 the trade will at once be relieved by any measure . ; which .should so far interfere with tbe intercourse; now carried on between the foreign Colcinies and ihe Coniinent of Europe, as should either materially lessen the, stip ply which the Continent now receives froth foreign Colonies, 'or should impose such charges on the ' neutral trade as would enable the British Planter to 'meet the neutral importations in:foreign marketi on equal terms of competition. What particUl'ar 'meaSures'' have, you in vie , ,v in that answer ?—The blockade of Mdrtinique, G.- daloupe, and the,Port of'the Havannah, in the ii st instance, or such additional charges on the tbrei ,, n. trade, or bounty On the British exports, as shall . !, render the expences on British and foreign produce' equal delivered in the foreign market. _ _ Do any measures occur to you by which the Planters could be relieved in the home market )4,-1 thiuk it most probable, that, at the present low 'price of sow, a reduation of duty might not affect the price, and..the rather as, though the last crop has sold very !Ow, it has ultimately been taken out of the market on this supposition. Maturial relief would be afforded to the Planter, if, instead of taking a certain duty of 275, per cwt. whatever be, o . the price of Sugar, the duty were taken by a rey centage on the 'average Gazette price. The sciL which had,Sormed on this subject proceeded on a tnat:.tbe duty shoald,Lt..takeu per Icent-on the sale 'price, exclusive of-duty; as pub ?lisped in the GAzette; :it,was proposed that the. dut,, t t hodi?e m:t monthly, and the gradatinus4/141 scale notid - be less than 44. per cwt. on the Gizette ' • . price. a it 0 o ;' If relief, in „pine mode or other, be . not'spetilly. administered' to the West India Trade what; in, youi:OPinioni is *likely' . to 'be the tonsecittoitce ."W"tliout inirnediattly adverting to the inctioVellien• • city to- fnerchanti- and-:opalent • tradirs'in4- • b 4 esikk . -(l,lcona the AlOrtrpaymentof interest,., af t ft. the deterioration.of the securities they bold, I concOiv4 the disfre..s - airEady prevails, and %dial is daily increasing, exceeds; and' is of a .diffeterte!tle!; , • scripliOn fron3;any:, arising froor disappointmentin coiramreial adventure.
