t)\\ Thursday last, Commodore Shaw Rail-
ed for Washington City, in the ketch Vesu-
vius. The command of the squadron on
this station, devolves on captajii Leonard.
Whilst commodore Shaw was in command
here, his conduct as an officer and gentleman,
was so'exemplary, that-it gained him the
esteem of all who knew him, and he carries
with him the love of his fellow-citizens.
We think he merits a higher rank than he
holds in the service of his country.
For the benefit of all concerned in vessels
or barges, bound to or proceeding from New-
Orleans
By the schooner Mary, captain Vrignaud,
from Havanna, we learn, that new orders
have been issued by the British board of ad-
miralty, to detain and send in for adjudicati-
tion all vessels destined as above mentioned,
under the slightest circumstances of suspi-
cion of their having French or Spanish pro-
perty on board ; and the British government
have done away all responsibility on the part
of any captain of any ship of war or priva-
teer, so that he is not personally responsible
foi any damages by detention and trial, when
the vessel and cargo shall be acquitted ; but
government pays the expence : Hence vessels
are liable to be detained and sent in on the
slightest susfiicicn.

SIR,
A publication appeared some time since
in one of the northern papers, stating that
I had procured in Canada, a traiterous letter
written by Mr. Jefferson to Benedict Arnold,
after his desertion.
At that time I paid little attention to a
story which I thought few would repeat,and
was sure none could seriously believe
Lately, however, I have understood that the
tale has been republished, and that my silence
is cited either as an admission of the fact,
or as a proof that I am not averse to its cir-
culation.
In either case it behoves me to declare
that I never had any such letter in my pos-
session ; and that I never heard of its exist-
ence suggested but in the publication to
which I allude.
I am,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
EDW'D. LIVINGSTON.
From the Belfast Chronicle of May 30.
MUTINY.
It has been stated in accounts brought
from the Mediterranean, that the crew of
the American ship Eh'za Ann mutinied
against the captain. They first tied his
mate to a gun on the quarter-deck, and used
him most cruelly. They pricked him with
the cook's tormentors, beat him over the
ribs with staves in the most shocking man-
ner, and left him for dead. They also treat-
ed the supercargo in the most cruel manner.
They then attacked the master whom they
struck a dreadful blow. His wife, with an
infant in her arms, followed him ; he fell
back, and she caught him crying, >' You
have murdered my husband.'" The ruffians
answered, " We will do for you by and bye."
The wife gave her husband some liquor to
drink, and he somewhat recovered from
the stunning blow he received. When he
recovered a little more, he sallied forth with
pistols and sabre to disarm the villians.
The mate and superco had by this time
recovered sufficiently to aid him in this cou-
rageous attempt. They knew they had to
contend with cowards at heart, and by stra-
tagem and determined bravery, they suc-
ceeded in driving the mutineer-! forward,al-
ter woundisg them, except the two ring-
leaders. The Niger frigate, capt. Hiliyar,
luckily soon afier fell in with the ship off
Cadiz, in a gale of wind, boarded her,
and then took the ringleaders out. The
master was then lying dangerously ill
The Niger then sent an officer and 4 men
on board to navigate . her to Gibraltar,
where the mutineers will be brought to trial.
The two ringleaders are. Englishmen born ;
their names are John Cross alias Daniel
Crosswricht, and Robert Warrington.
The former has since given himself up as a
deserter from his majesty's ship Warrior.
The ehip had a great many dollars on board,
with other treasure, of which they intended
to plunder her.
from the Richmond Enquirer.
In the Virginia Herald, 30th u!t. I ob-
serve a wanton aspersion upon my charac-
ter- written by one of general Wilkinson's
myrmidons, under the signature of Recrimi-
nator, which is so mingled with scurrility
and invective, that I feel myself absolved
from every motive of delicacy whatever, as
respects the character of gen. Wilkinson.
How far I may have been an unworthy mem-
ber of the grand jury, who presided upon
the trial of col. Burr, I leave to an impartial
and unprejudiced public to judge ; my con-
duct upon that occasion gives an unequivo-
cal contradiction to the motive that has been
ascribed to me, of sympathy for col. Burr ;
and I defy malignity itself to support the
charge, of what has been very unwarranta-
bly ascribed to me, of misrepresentation. I
am very well aware of what I havesaid upon
the inquiry that was made into gen. Wilkin-
son's conduct by the grand jury, to support
an indictment for high treason ; upon which
question a vote was taken, and, if I am not
greatly mistaken, there was a division of
seven to nine ; and I am not sure that there
was not an equal division ; of this last cir-
cumstance I am not very certain. There
was a motion for misprision of treason, as
well as a motion for a violation of the con-
stitution, upon all of which there was a ne-
gative vote. It seems, indeed, as if the au-
thor of Recriminator had been actuated by
motives truly sordid and niggardly, or why
has he attacked my political creed r it has
never been dissembled ; I have uniformly
avowed myself attached to the federal con-
stitution, and am an admirer of the British
government, and I trust I shall at all times
be found true and faithful to tlie govern-
ment under which I live.
' " The gentlemen who v ted in support
of these motions were as well as I remember
as fallows :
John Randolph, William Daniel,
L. 1>I'. Tazewell, John Bmclxnhrougl),
R. B. Tavlor, Munford iieverly.
James Garnctt.
The above members gave their votes for
treason, and as well as my memory serves
me there was another vote upon this questi-
on, which I think was John Ambler.
For misprison of treason there were , as
many votes, and for a violation <>f the con-
stitution, I do pot remember the number.
MUNFORD BEVERLY.
irom tlte Virginia Gazette.
In a controversy between general Wilkin-
son or his iiriends and Mr. Beverly, I can
certainly feel no dispositon to interfere. But
as Mr. Beverly has chosen, in his statement
of the inquiry into general Wilkinson's con-
duct by the grand jury, to intrroduce my
name into the newspapers, I deem it a duty
to myself to relate briefly the facts of the
case as far as they concern me. The very
strange misconception involved in this affair
I cannot comprehend, and I must therefore
leave it to be explained by others.
Whatever may be my impressions respect-
ing general Wilkinson, I did not vote for
presenting him on a charge of high treason,
no vote on that question 'was taken by the
grand jury, to my knowledge.
On the motion to present him for'mispri-
sion of treason, I was of opinion, after the
discussion of the subject, that the evidence
did not warrant the presentment, and con-
sequently! voted against it.
For his infraction of the constitution I
voted to present him, because I thought the
offence came completely within the jurisdic
tion of the court of this district.

Loss of the schooner Charles.
Letters from Portland, received in town,
inform, that the schooner Charles, captain
Adams, of Portland, bound from this port
for Portland, in a thick fog, run on a reef
of rocks, Richmond's Island, near Portland
light house, on Sunday evening, when the
sea made a fair breach over her ; and out of
twenty fwo persons on board, sixteen wen-
lost ! Among the persons drowned, whose
names have reached us, are the following :
Captain Adams, and wife (captain A,.with
three men, got on shore about two o'clock,
but overcome by the shrieks of his wife, at-
tempted to regain the wreck, but failed, a d
was heard to say, " I am gone," and was
lost in the destructive element ;) Mrs. Rich
ards. of Portland, and her two phildrei) (Mr.
R. her husband, was saved :) Mr. Jo.-oab
Hayden's wife and child; a sister of Mr.
Richards, from Dedham ; and Mr. Rleazer
Ally Jenks, of Portland ; lie had lashed
himself to the shrouds, but died in that
position, and was found hanging to them.
All the ladies were lost Mr. Sidney Thax
tor, one of the passenger-, am-.ed at P.inland
at 9 o'clock, Monday morning, and states,
that he left six persons clinging to the
shrouds, foul men. one woman and a boy.

It is a most pleasing circumstance, that in
the pul lie spirit which has been elicited by
the late violation of our national sovereignty,
party feuds have so generally yielded to
patriotic sentiment. A miserable attempt
was made in this town alone to confine the
expression of the general feeling within the
pale of party, by announcing an informal
meeting in a newspaper, followed by a base
p Oicription of one class of citizens. But
the effort was discountenanced, and but few
of any class attended. The town meeting
yesterday was composed of thousands, and
conducted on a correct and liberal plan. We
hope this will be a useful lesson to those who
might in future wish to enlist party interests
ir. an affair of national concern.
