DISTRESSING.

On Saturday last there came into this
city a numerous family in circumstances
the most wretched. Moneyless-desti-
tutc of furniture and even decent cloth
ing-sick, and worn out--the father, as
sisted by his eldest daughter, in drawing a
vehicle, in the form of a cart, filled with
sickly children, and a f~ainting mother,
often driven to the necessity Of making up
the freight. Much to The praise of those
who reside in the immediate neighbour
hood of those unfortunate persons, the
most prompt relief has been afforded; but
it is temporary-the chilly blasts Of win
ter are at hand, and they feel DESTROYS to
prosecute their journey to Chillicothe, at
which place it is said they have some re-
lstions, whe are in a situation to relieve
them. lCtaciaaati GGs.

SLAVE TRADE.

Accounts have been received at Co
2ennageE, from Cnr1sIIanburgh, the prin-
cipal of the Danish settlements on the
coast Of Guinea. 1t appears that Major
Staffens, the military commandant Of that
station, has recently had occasion to put
in force; in a very marked name the
rigorous orders he has received from his
government, to prevent every sort of traf-
fc in slaves. A Portuguese slave YES
sci, supported by another vessel of the
same class, but we'll armed. made its ap-
p~earapce before Thamma, a town under
the Danish sovereignty. with the inten-
tioa of making some purchases there of
slaves. Major statfins Immediately occu
pied the place with one thousand men, and
made the Portuguese Captain and part
of the crew prisoners. The Major has
sent them to Sierra Leone for trial. We
are sorry to add that two Englishmen
were seized at the same time, for parti-
cipating in the diabolical traffic; they
had been delivered to the commander of
the English Fort of St. James. and will
it is said, be sent to London to be
tried: The chief of the town is supposed
to have had a secret understanding with
the slave merchants. The vessel which
accompanied the Portuguese trader, and
which is said to have been Dutch effected
its escape" IRich. Compiler.

OUTRAGE AND ROBBERY.

A letter received at Savannah, dated
Cape Haytien, Sept. 25, gives a state
ment of the outrages perpetrated at that
place, by one Tassy, leftto ofhciate in the
absence of the Collector, who had bust
ness which called him to Port All Prince,
at which we feel indignant His first es-
say was to send an armed force on board
the sloop Enterprise, and rob her ofl7o0
dollars-they then searched a brig COM
manded by capt Towne, and seized his
writing desk, containing 700 dollars in
gold. President Boyer was written to on
the subject, who ordered the immediate
restoration of the 100 dollars. The de-
cision respecting the 7o0 dollars in gold
had not beer asuertained. Ibid.
