shore at Trinidad. 1t was asccrtaincd
that two men Of very suspicious cbarac-
ter had been about the town twelve
days previous to the I'd of October, who
reported themselves as part Of the crew
OF n Danish vessel arrived on the Main,
where they had left her. They were in
possession of considerable sum of mo-
ney, and some gold dust in bottles.
They left Il. in a sloop bound TO 81. Vim
cents. The one was a mulattO, the 9TH
cr black, and both spoke many langua-
cs. Three other men, of suspicious
character, were reported as having ar
rived at the Rocas, in a small boat, with
specie and elephants teeth, from which
ii is inferred they were part Of the brig
Orbits crew, as she had palm oil aud clc-
plants teeth on board.

ing much alarmed, complied with their
orders. They remained until Tuesday.
They had several sacks of money and
some elephants teeth. Two were car
ricd in her boat, at a charge I, 10, to Cor
beau Town. Each had two large bags
Of money. The other three, who appear

boat, and stccrcd to the south end of the
Island. They said they had belonged
to IA privatccr-had captured "A Guinea
man and sold hcr-that they had been
chased by man of war--had abandon

for his energetic cXcrtions in this affair

Coast and directed the Commandant of
the Quarters of TOGO to render every
assistance, in securing such parts of the
property as might come within his obscr-

ELEcrIoN RETuRNs.-Wc have but
! few election returns to make this evening
and those few are in no wise satisfactory
to our own feelings, although, but with
few exceptions, the results have been
produced by our own political friends,
whose rcpugnancc to every thing rcscm-
bling anti-masonry has induced them to
bury for the moment their hostility TO the
Albany Rcgcncy.-Partial returns from
as far north as Washington county, and
as far west as Utica, swell the mnjoritics
of Throop beyond all calculation or cx-
ample.
Very large maioriics for Granger,
arc calculated on at the Wcst--but they
cannot ovcrbalancC ma ajoritics like these.
In regard TO our own state government,
"all is lost but our honor" But upon
one point we desire to put the distant
public upon their guard. The Clay
question, is not affected by these results.
Many of the strongest districts for Clay,
have gone the strongest against Gran
gcr--thc reason for which strange and
booilcss course, VIC will explain saiisiact-
orily and truly hereafter.
