| NATCHEZ, February 10. Cchml Burr.—On Monday, the 2d Inst. an adjourned session of the supreme court cf the Mississippi Territory was held in the town of Washington, to which Anron Burr ¦ivius, recognized to appear, and answer such fcill of indictment as might then and there I>e exhibited against him. Col. Burr ap- peared on the day mentioned in his recog- aiizance, attended by his counsel, William 33. Shields and Lyman Harding, Esquires. Agreeably to a "venire facias, issued by the honorable Thomas Rodney and Peter B. Bruin, a jury of seventy-two free-holders appeared in court, and on the day following twenty-three of their number were selected ty the court as a grand inquest. The ho- norable Thomas Rodney then delivered to them a comprehensive and impressive charge, •and the court was adjourned till 10 o'clock ihe succeeding day—at which time Mr. Poiadexter, the attorney-general, moved the court to discharge the grand jury. He stated that after examining the depositions submitted to him by the court, he did not discover any testimony which brought the offences charged against col. Burr, within the jurisdiction of the courts of the Missis- sippi Territory ; that the supi i ie court of the Mississippi Territory was pot a court of orig-inal jurisdiction, either criminal or civil, and could take cognizance only of points reserved at the trial in the respective circuit courts, where all criminal prosecutions must originate, according to the statutes of the territory. He further observed, that in or- der to secure the public safety, the territo- rial judges ought immediately to convey the accused to a tribunal competent to try and punish (if guilty of the charges alledged against him) which they might legally do, and thereby effectually prevent the contem- plated military expedition against Mexico, and maintain inviolate the laws and consti- tution of the-United States. He therefore hoped that insomuch as the attorney prose- cuting for the United States, had no bills for the consideration of the grand jury, that they would be discharged. Col. Burr made several observationsagainst the motion, and remarked, that if the attor- ney general had no business for the grand jury, he had, and that therefore they ought not to be dismissed. On this motion the court was divided. Judge Bruin declared himself opposed to discharging the grand jury, unles'col. Burr was also instantly dis- charged from'his recognizance. The attorney-general then withdrew and the grand jury were directed to retire to their room, who in the course of the day return- ed with sundry presentments. We deem it unnecessary to remark that these presentments were not founded on any bill exhibited to the grand jury, and that being negative, they met no further attention than a mere perusal. On Wednesday evening, the grand jury were discharged, and colonel Burr demand- ed a release from his recognizance—this the court refused. He did not apliear in court on Tuesday morning : it was reduced to a certainty, that he had made his escape. We understand that his excellency go- vernor Williams, intended to seiae on the person of colonel Burr, the moment he wss discharged by the judicial authority. NEW-YORK, March 17. The following letter, with its enclosures was forwarded to the Editor of the Mer- cantile Advertiser, from Mr. John King, a merchant of respectability at Jaquemel, by the English sch'r Alert, capt. Dill, which sailed from thence for St. Thomas on the 6th February. To the Editor of the Mercantile Advertiser. facmel, Feb. $th, 1807. Sir, I have th pleasure to inclose you a letter from Robert Saunders, fa) and sun- dry papers from a number of Americans connected with the expedition of general Miranda, now detained as slaves by the Spanish government at Carthagena, which I received from the Main a few days ago by captain*** (b) who generously tried to put in their possession one hundred dollars, but was prevented by the extreme jealously of the Spaniards, who will not allow any per- son to speak to or render them any assistance. The papers are as follows : 1. A Copy of their memorial to congress. 0) 2. A copy of a paper found loose, with- out date or direction, in the hand writing of Lippincott, stating the names and sen- tence of a number of his companions, (d) 3. A list of letters, 18 in number, (e) 4. An original paper from the seamen of the schooner Bee. (f) if. An original paper addressed to capt. ***• (g-J Copies of all which, with Saunders's let- ters, I have taken, and shall transmit dupli- cates in the due course. As the letters were put in the ceiling of the vessel that brought them, eight or ten were destroyed by the rots ; to whom directed or from whom, I c'ttld not ascertain. Should the trade to this island be opened by the American government, a few cargoes of lumber would bring a monstrous price, for the houses here are all in want of some repair. Shingles would be an excellent ar- ticle. White pine boards will bring 7 or 8 dollars per IOO, and.perhaps more. Pork 30 dollars, flour 20, and beeef 34, on the rife, and bCsrce. Dry goods will alvays command a good jnarfejt—By dry goods I mean German lin- nens ; nothing else seems to answer these people. Claret, 48 to 54 per hhd. scarce, Herrings 6 dollars, a quantity at market. Codfish if nice and white, 9 to ip dolls. pci' 100 Ins. American weight. The weight should be marked on the cask, '/"..•;ic is no flour st ui»vket; not a barrel can be bought. The small quantity at pre- sent here is in possession of government for the use of the army. Coffee, the staple of this place, can now bebo't for cash at 9-eoto 10 dolls, per 100, French weight.— A vast quantity is at mar- ket, and one 10th of the late crop not in. I am, wi$h respect your obedient servant, JOHN KING. NOTES. (a) Robert Sawukrs was for many years foreman in tiie office of the Mercantile Ad- vertiser, an active and intelligent man of a re- spectable family in Maryland. He was se- duced from his duty aid his interest by the specious misrepresentations of the persons who conducted the business of Miranda, pre- paratory to his expedition, and was captured in the schooner Bee. His fate is well known. ——The letter alluded to, whic! deve- lopes some hitherto mysterious circumstances connected with that expedition, may appear hereafter.

Captain Lewis has published the pros- pectus of a lf Tour to the Pacific Ocean," which he has found the more necessary, as " he has been informed that there are seve- ral unauthorised (and probably some spuri- ous) publications, now preparing for the press, by individuals entirely unknown to him. It is the intention of the author to furnish three volumes, with many and va- luable plates, together with a map on a large scale. The engravings will not be confined to the geographical department; they are to afford ample gratification to the curious and the scienilic. Captain Lewis has not been able to ascer- tain the price to subscribers, as the necessa- ry expence of publication is uncertain. But he assures the public that his object is not pecuniary emolument ; and assigns his p-a- son for asking subscription at all ; which we think very sufficient : it is " to enable him to form an estimate of the proper num- ber to be struck off." The author of this work deserves the e- stee-m and the patronage of all liberal and enlightened Americans ; none of whom will countenance the spurious editions. By the arrival oflhff ship Erin, captain Stevenson, we lenrn that on the 15th of January, gen, Gray and his staff arrived at the Cape of Good-Hope from England, via La Plata, who superceded general Baird in the command of the Cape. The latter embarked on board a transport for England on the 18th January. Sir Home Popham, succeeded by admiral sterling had left Bue- nos-Ayres for England. A frigate had ar- rived express at the Cape from Ceylon, re- questing assistance to quell an insurrection that had broken out there. Coyy of a letter from Mr. WtTfiam Gartivright to a gentleman in Philadelphia, dated, Cartkaskm, Dec. 15, 1806. Dear Sir, After taking my leave of you, I shipped on board the sch'r Bee, capt. Hwddel, be- longing to ----------------, bound to St. Domin- go, nnd from thence back to Philadelprrfa. After we arrived in St. Domingo, and after lying there 5 months, the ship called Lean- der, captain Lewis, came ia and chartered the schooner for fifty days ; unknown to us where bound to. We applied to our cap- tain for a discharge. He replied he would not discharge us. We told him we would not go unless he would inform us where the schooder was going. The captain then hailed the ship Leander, and two boats came along side the Bee,* with men armed with pistols and cutlasses ; cut and slashed fore and aft decks—'threw us in a boat, and took us on board of the ship—kept us there till the ship got ready to sail—sent us on board of the schooner again, and went to the Spanish Main ; and there was taken; sentenced to hard labor in Carthagena for 8 years ! I would be very glad if you would re- ceive my -wages, from the twentieth of September to the twenty-seventh of March, 25 dollars a-uionth. If Ish ud ever return, I shall recover heavy damages for my suffer- ings. There arq 19 fellow-sufferers with we, working every day at digging, with a long chain fastened to -each. There were 57 sentenced ; 10 hung. I remain, Your much esteemed friend- WM. CARTWRIGHT. A literary gentleman lately arrived in this city from England furnishes us with the fol- lowing curious information. On the 16th uuy of June, 1796, one hundred young sci- entific gentlemen, who had just finished their education in the colleges of England and Scotland, met by appointment at Yarmouth, where they resolved, under the strictest in- junction of secrecy, "that each of them should, in order to obtain correct informati- on of the world, and of the customs, manners and dispositions of mankind, quit their na- tive island, and reside for ten years succes- sively in different foreign countries particu- larly specified ; and that they should, on the first day of January, 1807, again meet together in London lor the purpose of read- ing over their different journals, and of pre- paring the same for publication." This strange resolution was actually put in prac- tice, and on the first dayof December, 1807, it was known to some scientific men in Lon- don, that thirteen of the young adventurers had died, and that the remaining eighty-se- ven would certainly meet next summer ac- cording to agreement. It was said that one of theseau venturers had constantly resided in tlie city of Mew- York, where lie had collect- ed a most valuable mass of information. [AT. Y. paper."). To the Public. It is said in" Poulson's American Daily Advertiser" of Monday the 9th, " Major Coles of Providence R. I. one of the commissioners of the United States, who surveyed the coast of North Carolina last summer, has lately completed and sent to the national treasury, under whose autho- rity he acted, and to whom it is inscribed, a chart of that coast; this chart is 48 inches by 28, and is executed in a manner highly honorable to the artist, being both elegant, scientific, and from its superiority in point of accuracy over charts of that dangerous coast, it may prove a happy means of pre- serving life and property." The iruth is, that major Coles was only the bearer of a chart of the above descrip- tion, to the.,treasury department, drawn by Jonathan Price, sipried THOMAS'COLES, > „- , JONATHAN PRICE, J Lo""'s If any other chart has been made and sent to the treasury department it must have been only a copy. . JONATHAN PRICE. We are happy to announce the arrival in London of lord viscount Valencia, on his re- turn from India by the way of Suez, with his secretary, Mr. Salt, after nearly 5 years absence from England, in various parts of India. His lcrdship made several months- stay in the Red Sea, and the adjacent sea- coasts, and has made some valuable charts of those different places. Mr. Salt, his lord- ship's secretary, made an excursion into Abyssinia with major Auudle, as far as the capital, Gondar. The public will he exceed- ingly gratified by much valuable informa- tion, collected by his lordship during this long, laborious and l.-.udable research. A young Abyssinian price is in his suite, who is a near relation of Negade Ra Mahomet, one of the principal officers of state, so often mentioned by that celebrated traveller, Bluce, as being his friend. This young prince ap- pears possessed of great natural endowments, and anxkras to become acquainted with the manners and customs of Great-Britain. [Tilloch's Philos.
