IneHcacy ofCapital Punishment.

The enclosed narrative was transmitted by a
resilient al C'onmel, and may be perfectly
relic IN as authentic.
Some wears since, three men OF the name
OF Mtirath, a father AMI bis two sons, were
executed at the village OF Bausha, in the
county of Honorary, under the following
extraordinary circumstances, for roboeries
Committed in that neighborhood One Of
the SONS was convicted al the CloDmel As
sizes, and at his execution his father and
brother attended, and received his corpse
in their arms from ire gallows!
Soon after, the second son was convicted
for a fresh offence, and his execution was
likewise attended by his father, who also
received his body in like manner!
l, might be reasonably su posed that two
such awful examples would have made such
an IMPRESSION on the mind OF the old man as
should have induced him TO avoid similar
fate but, strange as il mayappesr, the ef-
iect was otherwise, as the de!uded man was,
within tue next SIX months, convicted for a
new crime, aud executed on the spot where
his two sons had SO recently suffered III!

declined, from their being entirely unknown
to him. The account which this man, who
acted as interpreter, gave Of himself and
his compan. ons, was that being on board
a Spanish schooner from Havana, bound
10 the coast of Africa for slaves, they were
taken about eight or ten days ago, in the
Gulf, by Patriot privateer, and were al
forwards put on board an American ship,
bound to Baltimore-the name OF which,
or the captains, they did not know. lie
further stated, that the captain OF the pri-
vateer gave each Of them. at tire tirae OF
his putting them on board the ship, ts'enty.
fire dollars, which was taken from them by
the captain. The ship anchored in Mob
jack Bay on Sunday evening last. and they
were put on board pilot-boat, which
brought them into East River, and sci them
ashore, without money or provisions. They
stated that they were very roughly used on
board the ship, and ordered into the plate
! boat which brought them Oh, win mena-
cling language.
Captain Turner saw the ship in Mobjack
Bay on Tuesday evening, when two pilots
were going to her he learnt also from a
man who had been on board the pilot-boat
from which the Spaniards were landed, that
he had conversed with one Of the crew OF
the pilot-boat, who gave as the reason Of
their being put on shore, previous to their
arrival at Baltimore, that the ship was to
to remain three or four days in the Bay
Captain Turner brought letter from one
of the Spaniards, (said TO have been the
mate Of the Spanish vessel,) to the Spanish
consul at this place, who, we learn, has
given captain Turner instructions to return
to Matthews and bring the men to Norfolk.
The Spanish captain, an elderly man,
was detained on board the priyateer, TO be
carried to Margarita with the prize schnr.

ment of sixteen Spanish sailors being put
ashore in Matthews County, on Sunday last,
in very destitute situation, by an Ameri-
can ship bound to Baltimore, at anchor in
Mobjack Bay, which had received them
from Patriot privateer, by which they had
been taken.
Captain Ham, of the Revenue Cutter,
VINO was despatched by the Collector on
Wednesday, to ascertain the character Of
the ship, returned last evening, and from
him we received the following information
just as our paper was going to press
The ship is theGoodReturn, of Freetown,
William c. Sands, master, and as her clea-
rance, (dated 9th AugusD specifics, is from
Baltimore, bound to the West Indies, hav-
ing on board no other cargo than some bar
rels OF herrings.-She sailed from Balti-
more August 9th, put 10 sea, and returned
into Cape Henry on the 18th, anchoring
in Severn River at 6 P. NJ. of that day.
On the 95th August she again put to sea
Ion the 3Oth came to anchor of Beaufort,
N. C. September Cd, discharged her pilot
Sept. 4, at 5P. M. was boarded by a
Patriot brig OF war, which put on board
her l6 Spanish prisoners, with provisions
and water to bring them in. Att Pm the
ships company being in state of mutiny,
Captain Sands determined to put back
Sept. 7, spoke scbr Hebe, with orders for
the ship TO return into the Chesapeake
18th, at 4 P M took a pilot, and at mid
! nigh, anchored of New-Point-C Comfort
On 18th, S men deserted. Captain S.
says it is his intention, il lie cannot pro-
cure men 10 proceed on bis voyage, to re-
turn 10 Baltimore or some other port.
The above particulars were obtained
from Captain Sands and from the ships
Log Book could not learn the name
ofthe privateer or her commander. The
Spaniards have not yet reached this place.

FROM NEw-oRLEANs.
: We are indebted TO the polite attention
OF our correspondents in New-Orleans for
papers of that city, to the 18th ult. and the
following interesting communication Of the
10Th, forwarded by the William & Joseph)
for which we tender them our warmest
thanks.
Ertraet ofa letter 10 the Editors ofhe He
rail-, dated
"NEw-ORLEAns, Aug. 16.
! "This particular season of the year is the
recess of business here consequently little
or nothing doing. Our produce has mostly
arrived from the interior, and has been ex-
ported. We may, with some accuracy,
compute the value of our exports for the
year ending the first Of October next, at 90
millions ofdollars.
"The growing crop Of sugar, is not very
promising and likely to be less productive
than last year. owing to the dryness of the
spring season, by which the young canes
were much retarded That Of cotton is
highly fattering in every section Of the
state which has been heard from; and
should it escape the disaster Of the rot, will
be an unprecedented crop.
notwithstanding we have an immense
ty of shipping in port, and consequently a
great number Of seamen, amongst whom
the diseases Of the climate first begin TO
discover themselves, we ae happy to say
