LIIOASLJ04S w SAsA>AA
Oar democrats have rejoiced much lately
at few large failures in England, and have
expressed hope that these were the fore
runners of general bankruptcy and ruin It
appears these failures, tho of large amount,
have arisen principally from adventures
trading far beyond their capital. Most of
them have property to more than the amount
Of their debts: no old established houses Of
consequence are injured: and the failures
which have occurred the last accounts from
England declare to have been of public ad-
vantage. What is that disposition which de-
lights in the misfortunes of others II our
democrats should hear that London and Lii
yerpool were both burnt 70 the ground, they
would rejoice, and wish the President to is
sue his proclamation for general thanks
giving.
+ Some one in the Spirit Of 70 is exposing
the con duct of some of thea principal
officers Of the Navy Yard, and seems dis
posed TO consider it criminal to speculate on
the public. One Of the head men there
owns house which, the other day, was as,
sessed at the value of $500. The owner of
this house has been renting i! to the public
tor the accommodation of some Of the Ma.
Wy Yard concerns, at the rate of $500 per
annum. Now IS per cent. interest Cd real
estate seems to be little too much. No
thing can justify it, but consciousness Of
having deserved we'll of the public, and a
firm conviction of the right such patriots
have to remunerate themselves when they
have the power. Ingratitude is the sin Of
republics; and by paying ones self, the
land may be freed from the sin.
Another officer hires n egro for 60 dol
lars per annum and lets him to superior
officer for one dollar per diem. A fine spe-
cuIAtion but public losses are private be.
n ifs.
If all the pihe conduct that takes place at
the Navy Yard should be fully expo sed
how guilty would some patriots appear
Congress ought to appoint committee
next session thoroughly to investigate the
state of the Navy Yard. Some thousands
might be restored, and the expenditure Of
many thousands more prevented.
A writer in the Freeman's Journal, dis
cussipe the course the president will pur-
sue in consequence Of Bonaparte's promise
to revoke his DEGREES, supposes that he can
not issue his proclamation till the DEGREES
actually cease to operate; and that the very
wording of the act of May last was intend
ed to prevent the possibility Of his being
deceived as before withrespect to Erskine's
promise. The writer seems to have for
gotten that there is wide difference in the
case. The one is promise OF the supreme
power, the other that of An agent unau.
thorised to make the promise he did and
full faith and credit is certainly 20 be given
Bonaparte. Can one who loves the Anne
ricans" deceive them?

Captain Banks, passenger in the New
Galen, was master OF the brig John Adams
of Portsmouth, n. H. this brig was bound
to Hamburg, with cargo of tobacco on
her passage was captured by a French pri.
sateer, and after eight months detention,
condemned, on the plea of having orders to
remit the proceeds of the cargo to London.
The captors had, by means OF brlbe, pre-
vailed on the mate TO make false dcclara
ton this circumstance was afterwards
proved, in consequence ofwhich the captors
were deprived Of their share, and the whole
property coufscated by government. Cap
tain Banks reports the ship America, Lis
lie of Philadelphia, having been captured
on her passage from Tonningen for Phila-
delphia; compromise was made with the
captors, which was regularly legsllzed by
the Council of Prizes, and sanctioned by
government the same day seizure was
again made by order OF government, and
the property condemned. Many others,
after having compromised and paid amount
Of two fifths value of the property to have
the property restored, and afterwards had
the whole confscated by order of the 60
vernment. Captain B. reports about forty
sail condemned while he was there-and
70 sail detained for adjudication.
