PIRACY:

Imgmmomiamma
TO JOHN BENNETT, JUN. ESQ. LLOYD'S d0VP60110171114
. •
LONDON.
• Havannall, July 11th,
SIR.--For some time past we have noted in out
shipping reports the acts of piracy committed thiS
coast, Which have mostly passed without punishment a
and the perpetrators, emboldened by impunity, the
nature of the coast, and sure of a ready market*
have, with increasing audacity, committed the most
atrocious crimes. •
We inclose the reports of two instances handed us,
with the letter herewith, by the consignees of the yes-
seis%%hich suffeted.

Vo.flag is respected by these marauders, and the
losses by those engaged in the traffic of this island
will henceforth be immense, unless very efficacious
measures are resorted to. •
The Government of the United States have sent
some small vessels of war to cruise off this island,
which have, by their exertions, contributed in some
measure to check the pirates; but still it is to be la-
mented that they are not entirely destroyed.
A hope is gei,erally entertained by the mercantile •
community here, that the British tiovei nment will
employ some part of its naval force in the suppression
of an evil by which English property suffers more
than that of other nations, from its extensive trade
I with this island, and which, if allowed to progress,
can to no quarter so readily extend itselt as along the
chain of West India islands, where British merchant-
men would he almost their exclusive prey.
We live the honour to be, &c.
F. FESSER and Co. Agents to Lloyd's.

11110 ALPHA, SAMULL SHOOKS, MASTIR, MOH TURKS ISLAND.
On the 29th of May, 1822, at one ear. in lat. 22. 50. N. long.
71. 50. W. three schooners hove in sight on tne larboard bow.
At one 50. observed their colours to be blue white blue ; at two
they were within gun shot, and each fired a gun to leeward, and
immediately the headmost one, finding that the brig did not
heave to, fired a shot which fell close to her; she then shortened
sail and hove to, head to the south ; each of tke pirates manned
their-boats with six and eight men each, and went on board,
hauled down the colours, and made sail on the ship, the three
' schooners in company, with their guns pointed at the brig, and
their crews at quarters; they immediately put the whole crew,
with the Captain, down the forecastle, and secured the hatch
(excepting the boy, whom they questioned about the Captain's
money); they then ordered the crew on deck, and commenced
plundering. They ordered the Captain into the cabin, and de-
manded his watch and keys of the trunks, took out all his money
(about 200 dollars), and then took the trunks, with all the Cap.
twin's clothes, books, instruments, &c. and left him with only
one shirt and trowsers, treating the Mate and the rest of the
men in the same manlier' at the same time beating them and the
Captain with their swords excessively, and wounding the Captain
in several places ; took all the moveable articles from the cabin,
bread and small stores; took off the hatchways, and carried away
the warps arid several new small sails; cut away the maintop
staysail and running rigging,that was new, with cordage, canvas,
&c. the boats going to the schooner and teturning occasionally.
At five r H. they had taken every article they could find, in.
eluding a puncheon of rum, and went off Tney afterwards
returned, and demanded more money. Six of them surrounded
the Captain on the quarter-deck, four with swords and pistols,
and one with a handspike; commenced beating and cutting him
until he was not able to stand, and fell on the deck. They then
put a rope round his neck, and hoisted him up to the peak three
several times, letting him down by the run each time and left
him for dead. They then rook the Mate from the helm, and
repeated the same with bins, demanding more money; but find-
ing that there was no more, they left the vessel, taking with them,
by force the carpenter and his tools, John Nelson, a native of
Sweden; Isaac Hutson, a seaman; and William Hideman, the
boy, both English.
Two of these schooners were from 70 to no tons burden, with
50 or 60 men, and mounted three large guns; had square top.-
sails; one was coppered, the other white bottom, berh painted
black, with a small white streak; the third was smaller, with
two guns, and about 20 or 30 men, and no topsails, and all black.
