The U. S. Frigate MACEDONIAN, now
lying at the Navy Yard in Charlestown,
has been lately examined, found to be ex-

upper works, and is now undergoing tho
rough repar. She is to be almost wholly
rebuilt above the gun-wale, including her
spar and gun-decks, which are to be made
entirely new.

REVIVAL OF THE SLAVE TRADE.
Not content with havirg, during the late
VIZ, Struggled enormous quantities OF B;i-

negroes ameng them) from Havana, for
the purpose of cIandestinelv introducing
the M into this state and South Carolina
his is bold step. as the consequence OF
detection is coafscafion & death, but there
are men who will encounter any danger
for the sake of profit 1t is the duty of
our government, a duty it owes to human
ity and the laws of our country to counter
act the enterprise of those avaricious I'll
gers. The means are simple and sure
wo we'll equipped briggs would be compe-
tent one to cruise off the bar, capture and
bring to iustice such Americans as illegally
shelter themselves under the prostituted
flag OF Spa'n-the other anchored off Point
Petre. and keeping every night look out
boats from Roses Bluff to Cumberland
Point. This would render all attempts at
smuggling futile, except the rogues should
cross over their live merchant re from the
southern part of the island to the Fioridian
shore, and pass the S.. Mary's a consider
able way up.
The prevention of the latter step, the
duty and interest of our country people
ought to make matter of emulation as,
besides its being I violation of our laws the
Introduction of Spanish negroes would be
found to be AS pernicious as scattering the
brIgands of St. Domingo over our country.
Our supplication is, let US rest in hedce-el
this depends entirely upon the speedy re-
medy which government may apply to the
existing evil. [Rehn6fcar.
