TRIAL OF COLONEL A. BURR.
MOTION FOR COMMITMENT.
EXAMINATION OF EVIDENCE.
THURSDAY, October 1.
(General Wilkinson's testimony continued.)
Mr. Wickham to Gen. Wilkinson: Did you by letter or otherwise, request any person not of the army to seize col. Burr and put him on board a vessel? A I gave instructions to a gentleman who is now here, Silas Dinsmore, esq. and who is not of the army. Q Did you give such orders to others? A I recollect Dr. Carmichael; but no other person, except the officers of the army. Q Do you recollect expressing to any person that he would confer the highest obligation on the government by seizing col. Burr? A It is probable that I did, for those were my sentiments. My great object was to apprehend him, and deliver him over to the civil authority for trial; and the city of Washington was the place to which I wished ed him sent. But I had no idea of doing an injury to his person. I recollect a German came to me and proffered to take col. Burr; but on coming to particulars he said he would take him dead or alive. I was shocked at the idea, and declined employing him. Q Have you the cypher No. 2d? A I have not. Q Are you acquainted with a person of the name of Kibby? A I am acquainted with two of that name. Q Where do they reside? where does Timothy Kibby reside. A In Louisiana. Q Have you had any communication with him on the subject of an invasion of Mexico, and when? A I cannot recollect. I have seen a deposition ascribed to him, inserted in the public prints replete with falsehoods. Q You are not certain then whether you ever wrote to him on the subject? A I am certain that I never wrote to him specifically on that subject. He was an officer in the militia and I might have corresponded with him on some matters relating to his command. I recollect to have received an order from the government to ascertain the strength of the militia in the territory, and I might have spoken or written to him on that subject. Q Can you say whether you did or not? A I cannot. Q Did you inform him of the object of Lt. Pike's expedition? A I think not from the deposition I have seen. Here are my orders to lieut. Pike. (Gen. Wilkinson produced his instructions to lieut. Pike, see notes S, T.)
This is the information given by me to gen. Sam. Smith; which goes to illustrate my ideas of the state of our controversy with Spain. (Here general Wilkinson read the extract of a letter annexed marked V.)
Mr. Wickham. You mentioned that Swartwout was with you about the 1st of October?
General Wilkinson. I think about the 8th or 10th. I believe I have said the middle, because I marched on the 23d, and Swartwout had left me some days before.
Mr. Wickham. Your letter to the government is of the 21st of October; will you assign a reason for so long delay? A I took time cautiously to draw from Mr. Swartwout what information I could obtain, lest I should excite suspicion. Another circumstance was that I was busily engaged in making arrangements of the artillery, transports and other military equipments in order to take the field.
Mr. Wickham. You say in your letter to the president, that 'you are not only informed of the prime mover and ultimate objects of the daring enterprise, but you are ignorant of the foundation on which it rests, of the means by which it is to be supported, and whether any immediate or collateral protection, internal or external is expected' I beg leave to ask why you stated this to the President after getting the information you did from Swartwout? A The answer is very plain; but the question is complex. If you will discover it, I can answer it.
Mr. Wickham read an extract from the letter (being part of that just quoted) and said, I think this is different from the information you gave the court.
General Wilkinson. I doubted the information I received from Mr. Swartwout. I could not suppose that colonel Burr or any other individual would have the audacity or folly to undertake such an enterprise without the assistance of some foreign power. I could not, therefore, view him
as the prime mover, but as the instrument. I doubted Swartwout's declarations; and although they had an effect upon my mind, I could not place solid confidence in them. He said that the people of the territory were ready to join. He was a stranger in the country and therefore could know nothing of their dispositions but from information. I was acquainted with them, and had heard of no such disposition.
Mr. Wickham. Then you doubted whether Swartwout was authorised to make these communications? A I beg your pardon, I believe that he was authorised and instructed to deliver me lessons of falsehood.
Mr. Wickham. Then you say that you still doubted? A It is so expressed in the letter.
Mr. Wickham. These expressions I understand, conveyed the true state of your mind at that time?
Gen. Wilkinson. I wish you to understand me. When I contemplated the audacity, the iniquity and the folly of the enterprise, I did believe that col. Burr was stimulated by some foreign power. With respect to revolutionizing the territory, I could not place any solid confidence in it, until I received the communication of J. L. Donaldson esq; when combining all the circumstances I wrote my letter of the 12th of November.
Mr. Wickham. Then I understand you to say that this was the true state of your mind at that time?
Gen. W. Yes. Propounding this question brings to my recollection a subject not thought of before. I enquired of Mr. Swartwout from whence col. Burr derived his funds. He said, from the aid of friends and the sale of property; in which sale he had been employed. I knew that col. B. had no property. This declaration of Swartwout gave me less confidence in his communications.
Mr. Wickham. I observe in your letter of the 21st of October, this expression, "my desire to avert a great national calamity." At that time you had doubts whether the enterprise might not be salutary?
Gen. Wilkinson. Would it be improper to assign my reasons why I supposed it might be salutary? As I passed through Natchez, I understood that Mr. Meade, who exercised the functions of governor, had spoken of an attack upon the Spanish post of Baton Rouge, and I was informed by a Mr. Dunlop and a Mr. Smith, that he had said the government would connive at the measure.
Mr. Wickham. This postscript on the letter: "Should Spain be disposed to war seriously with us, might not some plan be adopted to correct the destination of the associates, and by a suitable appeal to their patriotism, engage them in the service of their country? I merely offer the suggestion as a possible expedient to prevent the horrors of a civil contest. And I do believe that with competent authority I could accomplish the object" Am I to understand that this postscript contains the true state of your mind at that time? A There is some uncertainty whether that postscript is a part of the original letter. It is noted on the corner in my own hand writing, and not in that of Mr. Burlieg, who was then one of my aids-de-camp, and by whom the copy was made.
[Mr. Baker. It was never understood that a copy would be received by col. Burr. Now we see the necessity of having the original.]
Gen. Wilkinson. I have no sort of hesitation to state what my feelings were. If the Spaniards had been seriously disposed to war, I did believe by a suitable appeal to the feelings and patriotism of the deluded citizens who might have descended with col. Burr, they would have been induced to join our standard, and oppose a foreign enemy sooner than enter into a conflict with their own countrymen. My idea was this, that the president should have forwarded to me blank commissions to be offered to influential leaders.
Mr. Wickham. This postscript says nothing as to leaders but to the body in general. Gen. Wilkinson. I cannot give any definite idea of my sensations at the moment. I think I could not have meant leader, but the leaders.
Mr. Wickham. If you were ignorant of the intentions of the leaders, why not as well apply the expression to the leader? A Because I did not think I could offer any thing to him which he would accept.
Mr. Wickham. As to the postscript, you are uncertain whether it was written at the time of the original letter? Gen. Wilkinson. Though I am uncertain of that, yet I believe it contains a correct representation of my feelings.
(Gen. Wilkinson's testimony to be continued.)
(S) Instructions to Lieut. Pike. ST. LEWIS, June 24th, 1806.
SIR, You are to proceed without delay to the cantonment on the Missouri, where you are to embark the late Osage captives, and the deputation recently returned from Washington, with their presents and baggage, and are to transport the whole up the Missouri and Osage rivers to the town of the Grand Osage.
The safe delivery of this charge at the point of destination, constitutes the primary object of your expedition, and therefore you are to move with such caution as may prevent surprise from any hostile band, and are to repel with your utmost force any outrage which may be attempted.
Having safely deposited your passengers and their property, you are to turn your attention to the accomplishment of a permanent peace between the Canzes and Osage nations, for which purpose you must effect a meeting between the head chiefs of those nations, and are to employ such arguments, deduced from their own obvious interests, as well as the inclinations, desires and commands of the president of the U. S. as may facilitate your purpose and accomplish the end.
A third object of considerable magnitude will then claim your consideration. It is to effect an interview and establish a good understanding with the Ya-tans, I-c-tans, or Cammanchees.
For this purpose you must interest Whitehair of the Grand Osage, with whom and a suitable deputation you will visit the Panis Republique, where you may find interpreters, and inform yourself of the most feasible plan by which to bring the Cammanchees to a conference. Should you succeed in this attempt; and no pains must be spared to effect it; you will endeavor to make peace between that distant powerful nation, and the nations which inhabit the country between us and them, particularly the Osage; and finally you will endeavor to induce eight or ten of their distinguished chiefs to make a visit to the seat of government next September, and you may attach to this deputation four or five Panis, and the same number of Canzes chiefs. As your interview with the Cammanchees will probably lead you to the head branches of the Arkansaw and Red rivers, you may find yourself approximated to the settlements of New Mexico, and therefore it will be necessary you should move with great circumspection, to keep clear of any hunting or reconnoitring parties from that province, and to prevent alarm or offence; because the affairs of Spain and the United States appear to be on the point of amicable adjustment, and moreover it is the desire of the president, to cultivate the friendship and harmonious intercourse of all the nations of the earth, and particularly our near neighbors the Spaniards.
In the course of your tour, you are to remark particularly upon the geographical structure, the natural history and population of the country through which you may pass, taking particular care to collect and preserve specimens of every thing curious in the mineral or Botanical worlds, which can be preserved and are portable. Let your courses be regulated by your compass, and your distances by your watch, to be noted in a field book, and I would advise you when circumstances permit, to protract and lay down in a separate book the march of the day at every evening's halt.
The instruments which I have furnished you will enable you to ascertain the variation of the Magnetic Needle and the latitude with exactitude; and at every remarkable point, I wish you to employ your Telescope in observing the eclipses of Jupiters Satellites, having previously regulated and adjusted your watch by your quadrant, taking care to note with great nicety the periods of emersions and emersions of the eclipsed Satellite. These observations may enable us after your return by application to the appropriate tables, which I cannot now furnish you, to ascertain the longitude.
It is an object of much interest with the executive, to ascertain the direction, extent and navigation of the Arkansaw and Red River; as far therefore as may be compatible with these instructions, and practicable to the means you may command, I wish you to carry your views to those subjects, and should circumstances conspire to favour the enterprise, that you may detach a party with a few Osage to descend the Arkansaw under the orders of lieut. Wilkinson, or sergeant Ballinger, properly instructed and equip to take the courses and distances, to remark on the soil, timber &c &c. and to note the tributary streams. This party will after reaching our post on
the Arkansaw descend to Fort Adams and there wait further orders; and you yourself may descend the Red River accompanied by a party of the most respectable Cammanchees to the post of Natchitoches and there receive further orders.
To disburse your necessary expenses in aid your negotiations, you are hereby furnished 600 dollars worth of goods, the appropriation of which you are to render a strict account, vouched by documents to be attested by one of your party.
Wishing you a safe and successful expedition,
I am sir, With much respect and esteem Your obedient servant, (Signed) JAMES WILKINSON. Lieut. Z. M. Pike.
(T) Additional instructions to lieut. Pike. Cantonment on the Missouri, July 12th, 1806.
SIR, THE health of the Osages being now generally restored, and all hopes of the speedy recovery of their prisoners, from the hands of the Powatomies, being at an end, they have become desirous to commence their journey, for their villages, you are therefore to proceed to morrow.
In addition to the instructions given you on the 24th ult. I must request you to have the Talks under cover delivered to White Hair and the Grand Feste, the chief of the Osage band, which is settled on the waters of the Arkansaw, together with the belts which accompany them. You will also receive herewith, a small belt for the Paris, and a large one for the I-c-tans or Commanchees.
Should you find it necessary you are to give orders to Monegrin the resident interpreter to attend you.
I beg you to take measures for the security and safe return of your boats from the grand Osage to this place.
Dr. Robinson will accompany you as a volunteer, he will be furnished with medicines, and for the accomodation which you give him he is bound to attend your sick.
Should you discover any unlawful traders in your route or any person from this Territory or from the United States without a proper licence or passport you are to arrest such person or persons and dispose of their property as the law directs.
My confidence in your caution and discretion, has prevented me from urging you to be vigilant in guarding against the stratagems and treachery of the Indians, holding yourself above alarm or surprise, the composition of your party though it be small will secure to you the respect of an host of untutored savages.
You are to communicate from the Grand Osage and from every other practicable point, directly to the secretary at war transmitting your letters to this place under cover, to the commanding officer or by any more convenient route.
I wish you health and success and honorable enterprise, And am, Yours with friendship. JAS. WILKINSON. Lieut. Z. Pike.
(V) Extract of a letter from Gen Wilkinson to Gen. S. Smith, dated fort Adams 12th Sept. 1806.
"At this moment thus stands the account between us and the Spaniards on the side of Texhas; we dishonor the armies of Spain, and as they alledge, violate their territory, by forcing their advanced post, and compelling their officer to fall back many miles (Se general Dembern's order to Porter.) In consequence the Spaniard reinforcements, advances, resumes his former ground & braves us. We remonstrate and menace, but he keeps possession of the disputed tract. Is not the balance against us? It is my friend, and I will restore what we have lost. I trust in Heaven without bloodshed, but at all events."

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 23.
TRIAL OF COL. BURR.
LATEST PROCEEDINGS.
Thursday was wholly occupied by Mr. Wickham.
Friday was wholly occupied by Mr. Moore.
On Saturday, a Mr. Power from New Orleans (who turned out to be a subject of the King of Spain) was introduced by Col. Burr as a witness; by whom, (as he asserted) he intended to authenticate certain papers, and to prove that General Wilkinson was in the habit of receiving money from the Spanish government. The avowed object of establishing this charge against the general was to impeach his credibility by contradicting some parts of his testimony, and to show that his motive for defeating the project of Burr was not patriotism, but to prevent an invasion of the territories of the King in whose pay he was himself.
The Chief Justice decided that the evidence was admissible, and that Mr. Power should be examined. He was therefore sworn, and questioned as to what he knew concerning certain correspondence between the Baron de Carondelet and Gen. Wilkinson.
Mr. Power addressed the court with respect but firmness, and declared that, being a subject of the King of Spain, he could not, without violating his duty and honor, give an account of any political transactions which the service of the King his master required to be concealed. He stated that he had come hither from New Orleans with great reluctance, an agent of Col. Burr who served a subpoena upon him, having threatened him with imprisonment in case he refused; but he hoped the court would not compel him to give the evidence which had been demanded.
The counsel for Col. Burr insisted that, whether he was a Spanish subject or not, he was now within the power of the court, and ought to be compelled to disclose whatever he knew.
The Chief Justice decided in their favor, and required the witness to proceed with his testimony.
Mr. Power, however, resolutely refused. Time was therefore allowed until 5 o'clock to consider whether he would obey the Judge or not. At that hour he came again into court; but, (Mr. Wirt being then engaged in speaking) no notice was taken of his appearance.
Mr. Wirt began his discourse between 12 and 1 o'clock, but had not finished when the hour of adjournment arrived. His speech, so far as he progressed, shone with his usual fire of eloquence, and was peculiarly luminous in argument.
The court adjourned till Monday, ten o'clock.
MONDAY, October 19.—Twelve o'clock
Nearly the whole of this day was occupied by Mr. Wirt, who concluded his able speech about two o'clock,—after which Mr. Power and Mr. Swartwout were again,
called and examined. The evidence and arguments of counsel having been concluded, the court adjourned till this day (Tuesday) eleven o'clock, when it is understood the final opinion of the Chief Justice will be delivered.
Twelve o'clock. The court has just delivered a long and elaborate opinion, in which it determines, that "it would be improper to commit the accused on the charge of treason."
The conclusion of the opinion is as follows: "I shall commit Aaron Burr and Herman Blannerhasset for preparing and providing the means for a military expedition against the territories of a foreign prince with whom the U. S. were at peace. If those whose province and duty it is to prosecute offenders against the laws of the U. States shall be of opinion that a crime of a deeper dye has been committed, it is not their choice to act in conformity with that opinion—Israel Smith is not proved to have provided or prepared any means whatever and therefore I shall not commit him. If he has really offended against the laws, he may be prosecuted for the treason in Kentucky, or for the misdemeanor in his own state, where, if any where, his offence has been committed."
Mr. Hay moved to have A. B. and H. B. committed for trial in the District of Ohio.

The alarm excited a few weeks since, by a large assemblage of different tribes of Indians at Grenville and Fort Wayne, in this state, seems to have entirely subsided. It is said the pretended prophet who is among the savages, has been the cause of their hostile appearance.
[Marietta Commentator.]
A letter from Liverpool, dated Sept. 9 says "An embargo is on all the ports in Holland, even fishing boats and small craft."
We have seen several letters from London, of undoubted authority from the 3d to the 7th September, stating that no formal note had been presented to the British government by our minister; that he had however an interview with Mr. Canning, which was rather conciliatory than otherwise, that no apprehensions of an embargo on our vessels in England, nor of any hostile measures were entertained. A considerable time it was believed would elapse, before an answer to the dispatches could or would be returned.
[Boston Gaz.]
A London paper of Sept 7, says—"Several private letters from Holland state, that vessels proved to have come direct from British ports had been detained, and their papers seized and sent to the seat of government. For the future, the commercial regulations established in consequence of Bonaparte's prohibitory decree are to be strictly enforced. The captains of all vessels are to find securities to treble the amount of their ships and cargoes, that they do not come from, or are not destined for a British port; the bond to continue in the possession of the deputed officer until the facts shall have been satisfactorily ascertained."
Captain Burges, who arrived at Salem on Saturday last from Leghorn received the following minutes from capt. Lyman of the ship Vermont of N. Y. for the purpose of publication.
"I SAILED from New York for Leghorn on the 20th of January last in the ship Vermont of that port, with a cargo invoiced at 122,000 dollars. On the 14th of March I was captured by a French privateer boat, about ten leagues from Leghorn, and ordered for Porto Ferrajo in the island of Elba. My papers were all perfectly in rule, with a certificate from the French consul at New York for the neutrality of the cargo. This availed nothing, for the captain of the privateer did not read them, but sealed them up, put a prize master on board, kept near by with the privateer till we worked the ship into port. We were examined by the commissary; and notwithstanding the regularity of my papers and consular certificate, the ship was detained, and I was told the papers must go to Paris before I could be liberated. I then made arrangements with the consignees, to bond the ship and cargo, as part of the cargo consisting of cod fish, would be totally lost before such an event could take place; we therefore offered to the captors good and sufficient bonds to abide the discretion of the council of prizes, if they would permit the ship to proceed to Leghorn.
This they would not do, but insisted upon having her discharged at Porto Ferrajo, for this manifest reason, that they might plunder her cargo. We then appealed to the commissary and demanded liberty to depart, agreeably to the good understanding between the two governments, and the regulations of the French navy. This he promised to grant us; but after keeping us for 40 days in a state of daily expectation of this liberty, he sends off for Paris the ship's original papers; and this not only in violation of justice, but contrary to his express promise to us; as the law only requires that copies should be sent.
The ship therefore still remains at Porto Ferrajo with all her cargo on board excepting the codfish, which after keeping it there until it was almost totally ruined they ordered it to be landed. I was compelled to ride 65 days quarantine, although I had no sickness on board and had a clean bill of health.
The privateer was suffered to threaten us with her guns, yes sir, this they did under the vile pretence that we intended to run away. It would be worrying you sir, to hear all the indignities we have suffered. And now they have the impudence to tell us that our sufferings are all on our own account, for if we would have given them money at first they would have let us gone. This, although it would have been wrong we might have been tempted to do but so numerous are the concerns of the privateer not only of generals but of private citizens, that it would have cost more than the ship is worth to have succeeded—These things one might suffer with some degree of philosophy, if there was a prospect that we should obtain satisfaction at last, but all who have an ostensible interest in the privateer, are worth nothing, and as soon as the case goes against them, they fly, and the officers of government, who are in fact at the bottom of the evil, still dare to look as honest men in the face.
