NEw-YoRK, Dec. lI.--The British
sloop of war Pheasant, of 20 guns, Capt,
Clavering, mentioned in yesterday, 8 ga,
zette, sailed from Jamaica on the Sd, and
Havana on the 9th ult with a convoy,
and has brought specie for several mercan-
tile houses in this city.
We learn from Capt, Claverlng, that
the frigate Hyperion, and Tyne sloop OF
war, were cruising on the coast OF Cuba
and he CouGrme the accounts before re-
ceived, of the success of the tenders Of
the Tyne. They chased several piratIcal
boats on shore, and made prisoners eleven
pirates and it was reported, that elgh-
teen others were taken by the militia on
their reaching the shore.
Captain Clavering has been absent from
England twelve months, for the purpose
of a.certaining the length OF the second
pendulum, towards the determination OF
the figure of the earth.
We understand that he designs making
experiments in this city, and that gentle
men Of science intend afording him every
facility imam objectsot such general lm-

TO make the provisions Of this bill' for q
light increase of their present emolun1ents,
Just and reasonable, as we'll IN themselves
as by comparison with the compensatlons
of other public officers.
Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Walworth made some
queries as to some OF the details OF the bill.
which seemed Objectionable to them /; and
Mr.. Neale answered and explained.
Finally, after some amendment had been
made 10 the bill
Mr.. Cooke made opposition to il on prin-
cipls; believing the fees now allowed by
law 10 these officers to be sufficient. he
moved to strike out toe enacting clause OF
the bill. He considered the fees propo>
sed By the bill to be enormous, and par
ticularly objected 10 the Zee OF one dollar
for stating each account and SIX and quar-
Ter cents for examining each voucher.
Mr.. Neale defended the bill, explained
the bearing of these fees to the former
fees, and Showed the lees now proposed
TO be allowed to the Registers of Wills to
be less than had been allowed by an act
of Congress TO the Clerks of the Courts, &c.
The question on striking out the enact
ing clause, (rsjecting the billy was decided
10 the negative, by large majority.
The bill being reported to the House,
with amendments, was concurred in, and
ordered to be engrossed, and read third
time Tomorrow.
LAND OFFICE RECEIVERS, &c.
The House then resolved itself into a
committee of the whole, on the bill, re-
ported at the last session, fixing the COM
psnsation OF Receivers of the Public Mo-
neys, tor their services in transmitting
public moneys to safe places OF de-
po,ite; Mr.. Mallary in the chair.
No objection being made to the bill, the
committee rose and reported it to the
house, and it was ordered 10 be engrOsSeG,
and read third time tomorrow.
To the same committee of the whole had
been also referred the bill "for the relief
of the Registers and of the. Receivers of
Public money of the several Land Offices"
which was also ordered to be engrossed
and read third time.
A bill TO enable the proprietors of lands,
held by titles derived from the .. S. to
obtain copies Of their papers, was ordered
to be engrossed and read third time to-
morrow.
The next bill in order was The bill "To
abolish Imprisonment for debt" Before
taking up,
