INDICTMENTS FOR PIRACY.

On the cath August last, Thomas A. Bass
Of Richmond, Virginia, who commanded
the armed schooner La Cunstanta, was ar
rested in this city, by virtue of a warrant
issued by Judge Livingston, on charge of
piracy. The affidavit on which the war
rant was grounded, states, that the La Con
stantia used fabricated commission, un-
der which she cruised with the Arligas flag,
and captured property OF great value. The
prisoner was committed 10 the Bridewell of
this city on the above charge, ard at the
late sitting of the Circuit Court of the Uni
ted States, on the 9th September inst.
bill of indictment for piracy was found "a
gain,t him by the Grand Jury. In conse-
quence of his not being ready for trial, his
cause did not come on, and he will there
fore remain in custody until the next SEES
sion of The c rcuit Court, in April next
Three other indictments were found by the
same Grand Jury, aud one for piracy and
murder. On the latter, the prisoner was
tried and convicted, and will suffer death.

point of contest. Ii has sometimes sug-

thus ii is. where courage, and we may
add, great 10 tural tai ents, are not under

aTTEMPT To MURDER.


On Friday night last an attempt was
made by tive u,en, aimed with apistol and
a dirk. to murder Mr.. MrMMs, respecta-
bic and peaceable old man, who keeps the
dollhouse of Tren,'s bridge; but although
he was severely wounded, we are happy
to learn bis life is now considered out OF
danger. The following is the account Mr..
Minms gives OF the affair About ten
o'clock, he was alone in the dollhouse, and
partly .undressed TO go to bed, when he
heard person walking oil the bridge
Dir. NJ. opened the door to go out and re-
ceiys the toll, when desently dressed
young man approaches. and gave him
pewter dollar 10 change and pay for bis
toll, at the same time asking tor drink OF
water. Mr. NJ pointed to pitcher OF wa
ter ona table and told the stranger to help
himself, while he went to light to exa-
mine the supposed dollar, which he had
not discovered to be counterfeit, the night
being very dark. At the moment Mr.. M.
turned to go to the candle, person on the
outside, whom Mr.. NJ. had not seen, fired
a pistol at him, the contents of which lodg-
ed in his arm, and immediately the other
villain plunged dirk into his back, which
entered ABOUT six inches s. remained stick
ing in him. Mr. IL. then seized club to
defend himself, aud cried out for hel p.-
A negro who was at short distance, an
swered, uhen the villains retreated across
the bridge and effected their escape, lear-
ing the pewter dollar and the dirk. Next
morning the ram rod vi the pistol was found

The dirk was drawn out by the negro
who came to Mr.. M, assistance, and sur.
geon was promptly obtained, by whose

bV'tO"N SepttHtoc' II.
From Bells Messenger, Of .4mg. 8, -eceiiv-
ed at the office Of The Boston Patriot.
A report prevailed yesterday in the city,
that negotiations are gong OF between the
government of this country and that OF
Spain, the protested object of which is to
enable certain British commissioners in
Mexico to transmit thence to England spe-
Gle tc the amount of ten millions of dol
lars in British ships of war. The real Oh
ject, however, is. 10 protect by the British
flag ST. much Spanish properly from the in
dependent privaleers, into whose power
il would most probably fall, if the owners
we're rash enough to venture transmitting
/, il to Europe in a Spanish bottom. 1t is
pretended that the Convention by which
the dollars are to obtain safe convoy, will
operate 10 the advantage OF this country,
by enabling the Bank OF England to make
better and more eifectual preparations tor
resuning payments IN specie but 1T IS
very evident from the present price Of
silver bullion in the market, that the bank
of England is not reduced TO the necessity
OF senu.ng to Mexico for the purchase OF
dollars. There can be no obj ction TO the
principle, however, OF this 'ransactIon.--
AS government, We are necessarily
bount IN goou offices 10 the government OF
Ferdinand, but we are not equally bound
to the independents. In otner words, we
are compelled by Our relations OF amlty
with the Spanish government to DO all
those Offices usual between friendly pow
ers. anu this is one of them. IL is absurd
, to talk OF neutral rights and neutral duties.
THIS IS not our relation. The beliigerent
parties are not in the relation OF equal bel
| igerents tow ards u as third party, but
one ui the belligeren,S is trend and an
! ally, and tue other an unacknowledsed
power at war with this friend and ally.
We may keep out OF the quarrel, OF course,
| if we please, but we must not assist the
latter in conrrarie,y with our express du'
; ties towards the former, nor can the In
; dependents complain that we perform OH
ces to which the law OF nations obliges al
friendly powers, tina, is, all powers o
! peace. The fa|lacy of all the argument:
! on this question results from this error
that they are equal belligerents, and tina
| our relations with both is that Of neu
trality.
The public are naturally anxious TO
some accounts from Lima, to which city
Gen. Marten, the Buenos Ayres General
is approaching by land, whilst Lord Coch
rane is blocking up the harbor by sea. |

John Fisher and Joseph Roberts, who
escaped from the Jail in this city on the
evening of the 18th inst, were apprehen-
ded last night, and safely lodged in prison
this morning. 1t appears that they were
secured through the information OF Mr..
Bull, grocer, on South Bay. Mr.. Bulls
Statement is chiefly as follows They
arrived in small canoe last night about
O'Clock, on South-Bay, and Roberts pro-
ceeded to the store of Mr. Bull to purchase
several articles OF grocery. After his de-
parture. the suspicious of Mr. B. being eK-
cited. he traced them to Wiliman's wharf,
and found them concealed under Wood
Boat. After setting watch over them, he
Immediately lodged information with the
City Guard, as to their place of conceal
ment. by which means they we're appre-
hended.
1t was, we understand, the intention Of
the prisoners to leave the city in schnr
hound for Matanzas and thai the object
of their return was to effect the release, al
so. of Mrs. Fisher, which was prevented at
the time of their own escape, from the cir.
cumstance of the break ing OF the line, by
which they descended, when they were
about twenty feet from the ground
number of gold pieces and watches
were found in their possession.
