Tripoli Bombarded.

Commodore Preb,e was ordered home In
the autumn, Commodore Barron arriving
with the President and Constellation to
relieve him Of a squadron which now
comprised two thirds OF the entire effec-
tive force OF the American navy. Tripoli
had been closely invested and bonn nlbard =
ed during the summer, and several OF
the enemys vessels captured or sunk
The inhabitants OF the town suffered
from starvation: but the beys demand
being eXorbitant no ransom or peace
could be effected Congress voted a
gold medal 10 Preble, and 4 sword 10
Decatur.
At the close OF this summer came joy
full iidings Of an honorable peace with
Tripoli which secured line release OF
Baiubridge and his officers and crew.
The treaty. as agreed upon, established
peace and friendship between Trlpoli and
the United States on the basis OF mutual
commercial rights; the payment OF $780,
000 being promised by the latter power
AS a ransom for the prisoners held by
the former In excess OF any possible ex

so honorable a peace with A Barbary
