lect of which was to charter an Ameri-
IAN vessel for some port in this eoun-
try. that she was to take on board two
or three hundred bags OF coffee, and
some few other articles, and then OBJ

ped ON board as specie doltars-bills of
lading were then to be signed, sealed,
and forwarded in ttiplicate for insu-
rance on an naginary amount, to suit
the avaricious views of these vile rob-
bers-a coasting vessel is then hired,
with competent crew, to follow the
vessel out to sea, and 10 plumber her of
every thing! The consequence is, that
the vessel eithe: puts into some port in
distress, or arrives at that of her des-
tination> robbed by Pirates of all her
cargo Specie and aH!l The sailors
are ignorant of every thing; they all
affirm that the vessel was attacked and
robbed at sea, off the coast Of Cuba, by
Pirdts-the agent for the shippers,
who effects tho insurance is equally ig
norant Of the deception. What then
follows p Why, the ususpeclin On
derwriter, confding in the honesty Of
the Havana merchant, is cruelty obi
ged to answer his bond {; the plot in all
its parts, is executed to the full desire
of the wrethes who conceived it, and
they escape with impunity. ezulting in
their unlawful gains. There is but toe
much reason to believe that the above
is plain matter of fact--let those who
are interested in the different ports Of
the union, look to it.
