that he was acquainted with many of the
officers, and was apprized of all their
intended movements before they left the
harbor.
After their complete expulsion from
those seas, 1--WE arc unadvised of the course
of Gibbs until he sailed sometime during
the last spring for Gibraltar, and thence
to Algiers in the hope Of getting on board
some ofthe Barbary corsairs. The block
ade of the harbor by the French fleet
prevented the accomplishment Of his pur-
pose, and he returned by the way of Mar
seilles to Boston. He embarked thence
to New-Orleans, where he shipped as
one of the crew of the Brig Vineyard.
We have seen two letters from him to
friend, since sentence was passed up
on him, which evinCe some anguish Of
spirit, but there is no reason to conclude
that he is 50 thoroughly penitcnt that he
would not, by the recovery of his liber-
ty, rush again, if he had an opportunity,
into the pcrpetration of similar acts OF d
trocity. Wansley, the steward, appears
to be comparatively happy, and devotcs
the whole of his time to preparation for
the awful scene that SO soon awaits him.
Brownrigg and Dawes, the two of the
crew upon whose testimony Gibbs and
Wanslcy were convicted, were discharg-
ed by Judge Bets on Monday, with ii
solemn and impressive admonitlon.
The confessions ofthe pretended Gibbs
will be published soon after his execution,
and will, no doubt be sought for with ca
ger curiosity.

1t appears from the last number OF our
old acquaintance, "The Rhode Island
Republican" that there has been a
change, or "rctorm," in the editorial, if
not in the typographical department.
The finger of that classical gentleman
who told us, some two years since, of
"bmning Me midnight oil miih his pcn,' is
plainy visible in two or three flaming ar
ticlcs of Jacksonism. We have reason
to believe, however, that others have part
or lot in the matter. Otherwise we think
the Great High Priest of the Jackson
party, in our town, would not have thrust
himself, last Saturday evening, among
those to whom he is hostile in politics.
We regret that his notions of propriety
and fitness ofthngs, are so far vitiatcd as
not to admonish him of his intruson.-
And wo certainly did expect, that he
would conduct himself while there, with
a little more regard to the feelings of
those hy whose indulgence he remained.
He might, at least, have taken his nu-
merous pencil notes with less parade
and show-and surely, he might have
dispensed with moiety of the buzzing
conversation he held, with one of his po-
litical friends, inasmuch as hc must have
done all the talking himself, But it was
evident from the sweet communion of
spirits, that this grave politician had Sc
