The CASE OF CAPT. GIBsON.-L'Echo Univer-
sci of Aug ODD has statment Of the Dutch side
of this affair, with details. 1t appears, there
FROM that Capt. Gibson was arrested at the
Dutch Netherlands in India, for high treason
to the local government in consequence of rela-
tions with Prince of Sumatra, and that he csca-
ped in the undress of a Dutch officer, and reached
the U. S. The article goes on to notice his re-
ception in South Carolina, and the fact that Capt.
G.. arrived soon after the Hague with special dis
patches for Mr.. Belmont, U. S. Consul. That
functionary Immediately demanded of the Dutch
Government 100000, to be paid to Capt. G. as
indemnity for Imprisonment, and that certain pa
pers and personal articles taken from him in the
East, be restored. NJ. Van Hall, the Minister
of Foreign Affairs, opposed any demand for in
demnitv, but offered to restore the papers, &c.
He accordingly cont package of papers to Cant.
c., but by mistake he sent all the original docu-
ments Of the case, transmitted from the Neither
lands to the home government. In consequence
of the refusal of indemnity. Mr.. Belmont has
transmitted the information to the knowledge of
our Government, asking for further instructions,
and insisting upon being authorized to demand
his passports if the Dutch Government should
persist in its refusal. These papers which the
Dutch Minister never meant Capt. G. to have,
we learn from Washington, contain all the secrets
of the case, and show that there was a collision
between the Governor Of Banca and the Cover
nor of Palembang, in Sumatra, to entrap Cap
tain Gibson, whom they believed to be secret
emissary of the United States. They disclose,
also, that the witnesses against him in Sumatra
were his Malay servant, and secretary furnish
ed him by the Summartan Governor, and that
both were in the pay of the Dutch Governor, as
spies. The affair begins to be interesting, and
We look with anxiety for the next news.
