Matavzas, January 29, 1807.
The mate and four hands belonging to the
ship Charlotte, captain Benjamin Jennings,
lying in this port and ready for sea, came
on shore in her boat on ship's duty, on
which duty they were detained until be-
tween nine and ten o'clock in the evening.
The oars belonging to the boat iiad been
put into a yard near the wharf for security.
On returning to go on board, it being very
dark, the oars belonging to the ship's boat
were put on board another boat of nearly 1 he
same size, and which lay near the other at
the wharf: the mistake was quickly recti-
fied, and in taking the oars, one of them,
belonging to the ship Charlotte, was left in
the strange boat, and one of her's taken in
exchange. . Passing a point at the mouth of
the river, thty were hailed by a person, sup-
posed to be an officer of the customs, as was
usual, and on tiie beat coming ashore a
man attempted to take away rbe oars, but
was resisted. They then went, on board the
ship without further molestation, and im-
mediately dispatched two of the same men
and a small biack boy with some medicine
for the owner, who was sick on shore. These
men, boy and boat, were seized upon by a
gun-boat, and there, detained until, near
morning, when the said gun-boot getting
under weigh, came alongside of ship Char-
lotte, and with .about fifty men, seized upon
the mate, and after stripping him, tied him
to the mast, and then with a cat, gave him
forty-two lashes. They then released the
man, boat and boy, and said, " go where you
please."
We the undersigned, eye and ear witness-
j es of the facts above stated, declare, them
all to be just and true, and will when we ar-
rive in any port in the United States testify
to the same upon oath.'

Matanzas, (Island of Cuba) Jan. 30, 1807.
JAMES MADISON,
Secretary of State.
Sir,
The undersigned American citizens, now
in this port, under the pressure of the most
serious concern, conceive it our duty to ad-
dress you upon a subjeet deeply interesting
to our feelings. We are well aware that the
constitutional organ, through which these
communications ought to be made, is the
consul or commercial agent, bat as neither
of these officers reside, here, we are under
the necessity of doing it ourselves.
The enclosed statement, to which we have
affixed our signatures, we have examined and
compared it with many corroborating circum-
stances, all of which came within our own
knowledge, and finding they so well agree,
we hesitate not to express our opinion of its
truth.
The act of exchanging the oar under si-
milar circumstances, might have happened
under the direction of any one of us, and
can be termed nothing more than accident,
by no'means bearing even the appearance of
guilt. The opposition made by the boat's
crew at the point, was no doubt improper ;
but it ought to be considered that it was the
act of the men in. the boat, and from our
knowledge of the conduct of sailors, after
being indulged with only a few hours on
shore, we affirm that seldom any thing short
of positive force will restrain tngrni.
We therefore venture to express our opi-
nion, that the conduct of Prancisco ['idle,
commandant of a gun-bent, now stationed at
Matanzas, in going on board an unarmed,
inoffensive vesti . .eizing the first officio- and
ignominiously blowing upon him more
than forty lashes, was entirely upon his own
responsibility, without the know lodge of
his superior officers, and totally contrary to
the laws of this country.
This unfortunate man was tiied unheard,
and this disgraceful jiuuUlimtut inflicted,
wit!(.'ntf it being" possible for the devoted vic-
tim to know the crime for which he Suffer-
ed—-and what, if possible, added to the in-
jury, the American flag was waving nearly
over the head of the unhappy sufferer. Tnis
unwarrantable proceeding we conceive calls
particularly for national inquiry.
With sentiments of esteem,
Yours respectfully.
Signed by all the masters of American
vessels at Matanzas, at the preceding date,
CAPTURE- OF MONTE VIEDO.
Our correspondent at Piovidence, has sent
us the following intelligence, received at
that place, by the Favorite, captain RuuSel,
from St. Salvador : -r
" On the Mth of December last, an Eng-
lish squadron arrived at liio (!.-J i-vei io, of
21 sail: among which were the Ardent, of
60 guns, commodore.ponrtelly ; the Unicorn
frigate, a sloop of war—the rest transports.
The troops on board were commanded by
general Abercrombv, an American by birth, f
and generat Lumney. The first was authori-
sed to act as governor cf the district of Vlon-
te Viedo, should it be under the dominion
of the English. Tiie niimluT of troops was
given out to be 6000, but from a variety of
circumstances, it is probable they did not
exceed 3000 Gnat dispatch was used in
watering, and the squadron sailed for the
River Plate on Monday, the Q2d of Decern
ber. The ardor or" the troops was highly
excited at the cruelties perpetrated by the
Spaniards on the English prisoners, at the
recapture of Buenos .lyres, and a spirit ap-
peared to be universal to take ample ven-
geance. The Favorite, sailed from St. Sal
vador on the 5th .Marcii; on the morning
of which day, an arrival from Kio Grande,
in 3i> days, Lre't intelligence that Monte-Vie-
do was in the hands of the English.-----
In c< mpiliing dates, it is probable it fell be-
tween rue iOch and QOth of January. The
news of the capture of this place was bro't
to Rio Grande by an English vessel, which
was dispatched there b}' the conquerors for
provisions. The private letters received at
St. Salvador mention, that the place sustain-
ed a close siege of 6 days, and was at length
carried by storm. They also impded, that
the violences committed after the capitula-
tion of "uenos \\ res were fully retaliated.
It woutd seem from the want of provisions,
the English suffered after the fall of Monte
Viedo ; that their power could not extend
far into the country. The Spaniards were
extremely exasperated against the Ameri-
cans, on account of thepatt acted by certain
individuals in the conquest of Buenos Ayia.-s;
and an American vessel arrived from Monte
Viedo, while the Favorite lay at Rio de Ja-
neiro, which had been permitted by .the Eng-
lish to proceed to the former place, which
gave imormation, that on her approach to
the batteries, she was brought to and a boat
dispatched to her, to let her know that if
she continued within reach of the batteries
another hour, they would certainly 6ink her.
The ship Resource, captain Wm. F. Megee,
was at Monte Viedo, at the dare of the last
accounts. Captain Thomas B. Stevens left
Rio de Janeiro for the River Plate, the mid-
dle of January, with a ship belonging to
Boston. The Favorite left at St. Salvador,
the Russian company's ship, the Neva,
Yagameisted, from. Copenhagen for the
North West Coast, with naval stores and
other supplies. Spoke 29th April, ship Dis-
paieh'j John Balis*, of and and from Phi-
ladelphia, for St. Kitts, in long. 65, 45, 6
