had been purchased for Admiral Sir Isaac Coffin, by one of his
friends in Bostoa, for the purpose of making a li bsoly excursion
in the hot summer months along the coast, with sons 'of his young
relatives in Nantucket ; but Sir Isaac, having been suddenly seized
with a severe fit of the gout, has been obliged to give op the plan,
and the vessel has sailed with a cargo of ice fur the West ladies.—

A gentleman who came passenger in the Queen Blab, arrived
last evening from Savannah, informs us that the Loag Staple Cot-
toe crop cannot exceed more than half the usual quantity, owing to
the late frosts and exceedingly wet seaman. The Short Staple, or
Upland croptis about fair, but will be short if an early fall. The
crop. of Rice about fair, but will be very late.

B. I. ou the 3d inst Judge Tourtellot and Messrs. Wheeler and
Steele agreed to fire a salute on the morning of the glorious 4tb.—
No cannon were at hand ; but the road being somewhat rough,
they concluded to charge 13 large rocks on the road side, and blast
them at sun-rise. At the appointed time, Judge Tourtellot com-
menced the salute, which was answered on his right and left by
Messrs. Wheeler and &etre, until 13 large rocks were shivered to
ten thousand pieces. They then formed themselves into a Com-
allure for the celebration of the next anniversary, and agreed to
fire in like manner on that day a grand national salute. In the
course of the forenoon, the neighbours assembled by invitation at
Judge Tourtellot's and partook of the hospitality of his house.
A letter from Lexington (Ky.) of the 4th inst. to a gentleman
in Baltimore, says that the trial of Mr. Wickliffe, for shooting
Mr. Bruning, the Editor of the futaucky Gazette, after occupying
the Court lour and a half days, ended on that day. The Jury, after
retiring about 15 minutes, brought in a verdict of not guilty.
Twe companies of infantry went to Staten Island yesterday, for
the purpose of target shooting. Alter the exercises were over,
they repaired to the Pavilion garden. A ball was discharged from
a musket by some persons unknown, which entered the body of a
young woman living in the family of Mr. Drisler, who was en-
gaged in the yard attached to hi. dwelling. The ball entered a
little above her right hip, and little hopes were entertained of her
recovery.

lainass Ilaucs.—Some labourers, in repairing a street in the
village of Ogdensburg, a short time since, dug up a quantity 01
human boors, together with various implements of use, and ar-
ticles of ornament peculiar to the ancient lords of our soil. It is
known, says the Gazette of that place, that the site of this village
was once the encampment of the Oswegatchie tribe of Indians ;
and here was the place, no doubt, where they deposited the bodies
of their fathers. The teeth and other remains indicate the great
age of those interred, and it is supposed from their appearance
that they must have remained there during the space of WO years
or more.—Akany Dady Adoertuer.
The/adios Whsg mentions a pleasant si 'lighter recently made
among the serpents in that neighbourhood. About 4W rattlesnakes
were massacred In three or four attacks. We would recommend
an Anti-rattlesnake Association.

JAMAICA.

The Jamaica Gazette of' the 4th of July contains the
fallowing letter addressed by Admiral Fleming to the
Editors of the various Papers, on account of the exagge-
rated and frequently unfounded accounts of piracies
which they pub:ished.
" H.M.S. /3arharri, Curare, June 5, 1829.
GENTLIDIENe-All paragraphs frequently appear in the different
Newspapers uuder your directions, respecting piracies said to have
been committed in the adjacent seas, many of which reports might
be supposed, from the manner in which they are given, to have
been communicated by Officers of his 31ajesty'a ships, or by pea-
sengers brought to the Wand of Jamaica in them, ;lid which is
particularly the case in the Courant of the sth of March, the
Otrorercleo( the loth, and the Royal Gazette from the 7th to the
14th ut that nunith ; and as no information is ever withheld by
me, which it is in my power to afford, and I am certain all the
Officets under my orders are equally willing to folios, the same
line of conduct, I request you will be pleased to inform the senior
Officer of Poet Royal, or the Officer in charge at the Pen, when
you receive any accounts of piracies.
" I do not make this request to prevent your drawing such com-
parisons as you may think proper of the energy of my predecessors.
but merely in the hope of preventing unnecessary alarm, which is
frequently occs,inned by, and often the work of speculators.
The Senior Officer at Port Royal will communicate to you
all the information l have respecting the affair of the Mayflower
off the Caymanas, should you think it proper to lay it before the
public.—l am, Gentlemen, your most obedient humble servant,
• C. E. FLEMING Vice Admiral.
