Pirates Capt0red.-By the arrival of the Ann
Eliza Jane, Capt. Labousse from Port-su Prince,
we learn that small Hylien schooner was fitted
out at St. Domingo, with compliment of forty
men to cruise in the Mona passage, in search of a
gang of pirates. Alter an absence of twelve days
she returned having captured twenty two pirates,
and considerable amount of coffee, indigo and
hides.
The manner in which the expedition came to be
fitted out, is as follows. Our readers may recol-
lect that some few weeks since we published an &C
count stating that the brig William Henry was
overhauled and robbed by a gang of pirates, who
had their quarters island in the Mona Passage,
and Mr. Brennan, of Philadelphia, was detained
10y the rufiians. He soon afterwards succeeded in
making his escape in Spanish fishing boat and
reached the city OF St. Domingo, where he gave
the necessary information, and the vessel for the
expedition fitted out by the merchants. and arm.
led and manned by the government. The pirates
were fallen in with on the Island of Iona, near the
east end of ST Domingo, when, after firing few
shots, they fed to the woods, where they were pur.
sued, and the result is as above stated
