NEW YORK, MAY 4.

A BIZIEF STATEMENT, OF FACTS WHICH LED TO
AND ATTENDED THE AFFRAY IN ,THIS CITY km.-
BANY) ON' THE 21ST ULT.

On.- the. 17th ult. at a meeting of
~the,clinton-
ians in this city, certain Resolutions were adopted,
.one..of which, declared the utter disbelief of certain
fasts contained in a deposition of Henry :K. Van
'Rensselaer, Esq. and Solombn Van Rensselaer, Esq.
the Adjutant-General. The latter Gentleman feel-
ing _himself grossly injured and insulted, and hav-
ing understood that the Resolutions were drawn up
by Elisha Jenkins, Esq. who was Secretary of the
Meeting, attacked Mr. Jenkins in the street, in the
morning of the 2 Ist ult. having first accosted
and told him to defend himself, and gave him a
severe caning—Mr. Jenkins being himself, armed.
with a cane.

About two hours after this, Judge Tayler, in the
presence of several Gentlemen, used abusive lan-
guage to the Adjutant-General, calling him Assas-
sin, Rascal, Scoundrel, &c.; and shortly after seeing
the Adjutant-General passing down State-street,
pursued him with his cane raised, calling him damn'd
rasthl, and 'demanding of him why he had used Mr.
Jenkins thus ) and coming up with him, attacked.
him. The General defended himself with his cane,
which was soon wrested from him by Tayler :on
which Mr. Cornelius "Schermerhorn, jun. furnished
him with another, with which he struck Judge
Tayler ; and. while they were thus engaged, Francis
Bloodgood, Esq. and Dr. Charles D. Cooper, came
up, one of them crying knock the. damn'cl' rascal
down, the other kill the clainn'd rascal ; and Bloo&
good, with the thick end of a heavy cane, which he
held in both hands, struck Van itensselaet from be-
bind---a blow that felled him. Both Tayler and
Cooper, as well as Bloodgood, then struck Van
RaOsselaer while down With their canes, and
Cooper also kicked. him. Van Rensselaer being
raised up by two persons, and greatly disabled, walk-
ed' off with their assistance. Bloodgood pursued
him, and while he was led off', struck him two
severe blows with the thick end of his cane, held
as ,before; Van Rensselaer being then unarmed.
While Judge Tayler and Mr. Van Rensselaer were
engaged, and just before the first mentioned blow
from Mr. Bloodgood, Henry Yates; jun:Esq. came
up, and interfered with Mr. Van Rensselaer; but
being disabled by a stroke from a person unknown,
retired.

•
The Governor, who happened to be near at the
time of the affray, exerted himself to the utmost in
quellinv the tumult ; dud the Mayor of the city,
and other Magistrates, were very aetive,in the dis-
charge of their duty.

; The Adjutant-deneral now lies very ill of his
wounds.

EXTRACT OF A' LETTER FROM A GENTLEMAN IN.
PENNSYLVANIA TO HIS FRIEND IN WASHINGTON
DATED' APRIL 26. •
" By the last Mail I reeeived a letter from our
friend General Findlay, Receiver of Public Monies
at Cincinnati, informing ,me that on the Itth of
March he discovered he was robbed of public money
to a large amount. The next morning Charles Brit-
tain, his yellow servant, set out for Lexington, which.
induced a suspicion that he was guilty. .was
mecliately pursued and taken—he acknowledged. the
faet—said Charles Vattier was concerned with him, -
and that they had been robbing his master for three
years. Vattier was taken and confined in heavy
irons. He. has sent to Kentucky to employ the
ablest Counsel at the .Bar, and has offered them
6000 dollars to clear him. This I think they can-
-not do, for. the evidence against him will be very
strong.: Seven thoussnd dollars in bank notes were
found in Vattier's trunk, all of which were indorsed
by the Clerks in the Office. There is a Thomas
Matthews, who had been- committed for some
other crime, previous to the last robbery, who ac-
knowledges that he received three thousand dol-
lars of the money.—On counting the remainder
of 'the money, it appears, that there has been,
taken 47,000 dollars of the public money, and.
all his own, amounting to about 15,000 mat:,
this large amount, about 7,000 dollars-
only had been recovered at the date of my let-
ter; but large as the deficit is, Vattier has vi-
sible property more than sufficient to,. cover it:—
Should he be convicted, Our friend is but in little
danger of sustaining any loss; but it would be other-
-wise; should he be, acquitted, for his accomplices,
so far as I can learn, possess no property.
" The yellow boy having become State's evi-
deuce, has been admitted to bail, but is strongly
guarded, to prevent his being poisoned or assassi-
nated by some of Vattier's friends."

The following is the gross return of votes taken
in the City and County of New-York.

On the 11th inst. the French Frigate Cybele left
our harbour,. -and next day anchored off' Crany
Island. We understand that she' will proceed to
Hampton Roads with the first fair wind.

When the British Ship Chichester erftered this
port, in such distress as to induce an apprehension
of sinking, and with difficulty was kept, affoat, passed
the fort without the usual salute, some Verson 'here
was at the pains to inform his correspondent in Rai-
, timbre of the insolence of the British Commander.
The same person may inform his friends that the
French Frigate also passed the fort without saint:.
i ng.— ( Ajorfolk Ledger.) ~
We have conversed with a Gentleman than
Kingston, in Jamaica, 17th March, who inforths us
that eight French Privateers., fitted out of St. fagot.
de7cuba., were cruizirig off Jamaica, with the avow•
e 4 irate 0011 of pp0i..4.14 all I\o4o'o Vessels b 91114

to that Island ; the British binds, in consequence
of BONAPAWTE'S ll cree, being consideved in a stato
of blockade. Seve:al American Vessels, whos • car-
goes were not very valuable, had arrived at King-
-ton, and had been boarded by some of these Pri-
vateers, on board of which the American Masters
learned the above intelligence. These Vessels, were
plundered of provisions, spare cordage, sails, and
whatever was worth taking.--(ib.) •

DUBLIN, JUNE g.

The celebration of His MAJESTY'S Birth-day on
Thursday last, in this city, exceeded in zeal and
;splendour any former occasion. All political dif-
ferences seemed to be wholly absorbed in:a general
.sense :.of loyalty- and reverence for the .virtues of a
'Monarch, whose reign has been uniformly marked
by an attachment to his people. The Military Gala,
the kiVee, and the performance of the Ode, have
already beep .noticed., In consequence of the multi-
Plicity of private engagements on this interesting oc-
casion, the Lord Mayor' found it necessary to delay
his dinner until the following day, when he gave one
of the most sumptuous kind; and, among a very bril-.
liant and numerous assemblage of visitors, had. the
honour of receiving "
His GraCe the Lord Lieutenant and Suite.
The Lord High Chancellor.
