4 , 11 LLIGII,7, rissterday evening, at a quarter past six o'cloCk, two of the Bow -street Officers went to Greenland Do6k, to the house lately belonging to the unfor tunate Gentleman whose horrid murder is so much the topic o f general conversation ; when they took into custody Mr. Richard Spatch and - Hester Kit thener, .whom they immediately brought to town. These persons afterwards underwent a private se» Prate examination at the house of Mr. GRAHAM. the Magistrate. The . Maid-servant was first called about eight o'clock, and her examination lasted qnearly three hours. Another hour was occupied in uestioning Spatch relative to his pecuniary trans, 4 etions with Mr. ~blight. Not a syllable passed re iikiting the allitir of Monday night. At twelve o'clock the Magistrate suspended his nkitigati on. N It is supp ose d t h at three or filar pri 7 o It will take place' preparatory to a tithe one. In the interim., both the Prisoners .

On the 30th ult. in lat 26. long. 88. at 7 o'CloCk in the evening, *as &Ought to by a shot from a fiends Privateer Schooner of one or two guns,who ordered the boat on board with the papers. A Barque-rigged Ship and a 'large single decked Brig being in company, Prizes to the Schooner. The Privateer's boat , was put - out, and four Men came on board, : the Brig, and searched every part of her in a very particular manner, bun dling up every paper and all the' letters, en.. 4 Tent them on board the Privateer, she Captain declaring he shoUld detain Captain 'HUNT on board all night. The papers belonging to the Vessel were' first exa mined—the letters were then looked over, breaking open and examining every one that had the appear ance of business—such as had bills or accounts were detained, and the Baltimore letters, the Privateers men declaring the Baltirnorians coquins. After de taining Captain' H. until ten o'clock at night—then demanding two oars, and some bottles of wine, which they received, their boat lett the Brig, and Captain H. was allowed to return, in his own boat, with his papers,' and melt letters as they did not tain. The Prize Brig was bound to New-York, with a freight from some of the. Windivard lalands, belonging to Boston. The Barque was 'a high full built Vessel, probably from London to ,Baltimore. The Privateer was 'from St. Domingo. Same day spoke the Schooner Highland, bound to St. Jago. The Brig Success, Capt. Baum, of this Port (New- York), sailed from Kingston, Jamaica, for New- York, on the oth July. On the t3th she was cap tured, two leagues from Cape 'St. Anthony, by a Spanish Galley belonging to the Havannah, with out a deck, with two masts and two square sails, and called La Bonne Union. - The Galley was com manded by Captain C.samt, and manned With thirty . or forty Spaniards and Frenchmen, with an Irishman for an interpreter. Three days after they , Were taken, Capt. Baum, the passengers, eight in number, and the hands, were all ordered below, and the hatches shut upon theM, and so kept all night. In the morning the pirates prepared their knives, cutlasses, and clubs, opened the forecastle and called for tl:e Captain. One of the sea Men, Peter Datchemin, with the view of preserving the Captain's life, stepped forward and ascended to the deck.' The ruffians, with their instruments, ar ranged in two ranks,' compelled every seaman to run the gauntlet, while each gave him a blow, a gash, or a stab, as he passed. Capt. Baum and his, passengers and crew were all in succession taken from the hold, and treated with the same horrid cruelty, excepting five French passengers. An English Gentleman, named Sment, who was one of the passengers, 'was beaten with such seve rity, that he sprung into the long-boat to escape. and broke his allele .in two places. The mate of the Brig, two English passengers and two seamen were put in irons on board the. Galley, and_three days afterwards were sent on shore at Conyeil'auts, about an hundred and eighty mileS from the Haven nab ; and the'Brig, with the Captain ,and remainder of the crew, ,were sent to Campeachy. These fetus were communicated.by Peter Datehemin, one of the seamen, who was sent. on shore in irons. lie made his escape from Conyabouts, got on board the Ship. Cato, and arrived at this Port on Monday last., The objeet of these barbarous wretches was mor ney, as they offered to release the Captain.and Ship on receiving 6000 dollars. Our Marine List, of the 17th August„' states the arrival here of the Brig America, from Ports Mouth, PRAY • Master. The Captain relates, that he was brought-to by a French Privateer Brig, in lat. 28. long. 54. in the night, and ordered on board with his papers; that when lie passed over the. Privateer's gangway he was first saluted with a severe, flogging, and his pockets rummaged. The boat was then mediately tikpatched to his Brig, which the Privrfr tees people phindered of every thing they could 1 4y: - their hands on. Capt. Pay's Mate was severely flogged, and his people abused. Captain S'EasesEit, the Master of another Ame rican `vessel, states,. that on the aad of July, in lat: 8. 17. long. 58. 30. he was brought-to by a Spanish, Privateer Schemer, and peremptorily ordered on board with his paperc He was very roughly .re- ceived ; and atter inquiring whence he came, he was told he must pay twenty dollars for the extra shots they had fired to bring him to. When Crept SPEN6ER toll them he had no money, they . said they must lake what he had; and immediately dispatched a boat on board the Brig,'and plunder ed her of half her live stock, small stores, and li quors. They refused to tell the name of their Ves sel, or Captain, .but Capt. S. heard that they cruized from the Oroonoko. The frequency of such prataices, daringly perpe trated upony American Vessels by the Rovers that scour the West Indian latitudes, under the appella tion of French and Spanish Privateers, must force the Americans to arm against these marauders for the prote6tion of their commerce. The Board of Health of Providence, R. I. in a Report drawn up on the gth inst. declare, that only twp persons have died of the Contagious Fever since their Report of the 2d inst. and that no new case whatever was now known to exist.

NALD began to :load, Mr. Hubrica's pistol (having lent Mr. CooK4 the other at his request), and Mr. COOKE, contrary to all custom, insisted upotiload lug his own, and having put the .powder in, Mr. CooKE desired Mr. Tomxvis:s to ask Mr. MACDO NALD for a bullet, which Mr. TONIKYNS did ; to which Mr. 3.eIAcnoNALD replied, " That of course he had brought sonic for. his own use, but naturally had concluded that Mr. Coox.c, or his friend, would have provided themselves with those neeessarY. ar ticles ; ' but finding to his surprise that neither of them had any that were tit tsar the purpose (having brought only some very small ones with them), Mr. MACDONALD was obliged to give one of those he had brought fyr Mr. HUNTER, to Mr. CootlE. The partiei having taken their ground, . and the word being given, they tired, but without died, and Mr. MACDONALD proceeded' to load again. Mr. Tosixyis's came up to'him for another 1:111 , 4 ; . this Mr. MACDONALD was not able to comply with, _ having taken but three halts to the ground, con ceiving that if each of the parties had exchanged three shots,. it would have been the duty of the Seconds to have interfered; and owing to Mr., COOKE not having brought any proper bullets with him (two of the three Mr. MAt , DONM) had being now expended), it was of course impossible for the parties to tire again. Upon which Mr.M A cno NaLn con salted with Mr. MAMAS respecting' what was .to be done, when it was agreed that some terms should be proposed. Mr. Cooxit proposed for himself to Mr. MAC DONALD that he (on Mr. HUNTER'S part) would Consent that a:Publication then in the press should appear -49 which Mr. MACDONALD consented, as Mr. Cooxt; said it was intended for a Refutation of Mr. HUNTER'S Pamphlet ; which Mr. )4,kt:3)01 1 / 4 :ALI) thinking could not be reftited, thought it was but . justice to permit the publication to appear.

To this Mr. cooxn agreed.

He thought the Prisoners Woodford and Swots were two of the hustlers, but could not swear positively to their faces, A young man who was passing by at the time of the robbery, described the Prisoner Moss as one whom he then saw near the spot. Nothing was found upon the Prisoners when apprehended, and Mr. Dilorgan could not describe the numbers of any of the notes, except one of five pounds. On behalf of Woodtbrd, tho man who keeps the tap of the Marshals prison, one of the turnkeys, and a'wile of one of the Prisoners, all stated that he was in that prison on Monday from five to nine o'clock, but al lowed that he was absent for some time during that period.

But the number de stroyed in this way is insignificant iii comparison of the multitudes cut off by a sudden revere of WVa, ti4Z When the female Wasp,. in this early flight is overtaken by a chines frost, which so frequently , succeeds, in the months of May and June, to gieenei efsunshine, she is inevitably killed, and teeth deeth saves five or six colonies in the course of a year.--- She has other enemies tour besides' man. In her first roamings abroad she apt, tbr instance, to seek shelter in a bee-hive, where she meets with certain destruttion. But if, by the continued and unvariect coldness of the early part of the snowier, or 'by 'a wet June,' they are prevented from coming abroad until the weather is more steadily warm, it is incoa reivable with what rapidity the ‘ procreatiOn goes oe, and how totally 'ii poesiblcc it is to'keep down the ine crease. Even at this time, however, much good may be done by an adivelieerch for their remits, and they may be easily traced to them in the evening, or on the approach of a shower. • .1 , For their destruclien in the autumn the Writer of this article has found the wasp-liquid very use fill ; but it is in vain at that season to strive to extie pate them The best means to protect ripening fruit from their voracity - is to wrap a , very elight sletin of wool round the peaches, eteelaiineei and grapes, which will not at all intercept the Sun, but is a compete shield against the wasp .as well as earwig.. . 1 need not say that ehe early part of the petient summer was. quite of the kind , to keep the • solitary engendered female wasp at home; and accordingly the svearais with which we have been latterly tor mented have been innumerable. Whatever may be the end destined by a wise Providence, which has created no venotneus animal in vain, fbr the wasp, we stop not to inquire ; but certainly every , inan is,. anxious to drhe Ahem from nea r hi s own dwelling. , If so, he 'cannot pursue a %lore likely course than to make' it known in his neigh bourhood, that he will give one shilling tor every 'nye that shall be brought him before the end of Juno.
