Those were present, whose names are printed in Juitks. The rest were absent. Such as have a I prefixed to their names, tvere recognized at the former meeting of the court. Tue rest were not. ¦ Of course, most of all those, whose names arc placed after' that of H. Latrobe, haveljgren sub- poenaed since the adjournmsnt of the court. Mr- Hay begped leave to mention, that lie had nothing mere to submit to the court, this day. It was his de'y to furnish the ac- cused with a list of the jurors, with their places of residence ; and also of the ut- nesscs. But there wc:e many of the wit- nesses, of whose places of residence he was' completely ignorant: several had not appear, ed i many had been merely pointed out to liim by the A. G. for the United States.— It was clearly impossible for him to make out those lisis, before the day after to-uaor- tarty; The Chief Justice enquired then to what day it would be proper to adjourn the c< urt. Mr. Hay could not positively state, by what day, he should be able to prepare his lists. Mr. Burr observed, that it was not very probable, he should avail hiuiselt of any privileges which he might derive, from any delay which had occurred in the furnishing him with the list of the jurors $ and there- fore the court might adjourn itself to any day, which was convenient to the attorney For the United States. Neither was it pro- brobable that be should avail himself of any objections which might be made to the cor- rectness of the names of the jurors or their places of residence, as stated in the list; unless certain circumstances might occur after the production of the list, on which he ought to found objections to it: A short conversation then ensued npon the day of adjournment, when Mr. Burr ob- I served that as such a measure would seem in some measure to dcpetuiipon his o.'ii consent, 1-c should nor hesitate to consent to an ad- journment, provided it did not extend fur- (.her than Wednesday. Mr- Hay had no object!.-n to that day. Mr. Hay observed that it might be proper 46 have the names of the jury ilso called o- vefji though not t i impanncl them atpresent. It v.cuid be premature no i to impannel therii as the opposite counsel had not yet possessed a sufficient time to examine the list, and as the witnesses for the United States were not present. The namesof the juriors were according- ly called. 2'he na mes of the jurors summoned from Hood county to appear before the judges of tlje court of the U. S. for the fifth circuit in the Virginia district, on the ,$d day of. Jugust 1807, for the trial of colonel A. Burr. Hezekiah Bucky, Jacob Beeson, ;.;mes G.

Those whose names are marked with an * were absent; all the rest were present Of course, only two were absant out of the whole Venire. Mr. Hay then requested the marshal to deliver as soon as possible a correct copy of this list to the opposite counsel. Mr. Peyton Randolph inquired whether this «as a proper opportunity for any person on that pannel to state his objections to the service. The Chief Justice replied that it would be better ro wave any objections, until the jury were about to be impannelled. Mr. Hay wished such of the witnesses as had not appeared before^ to be recognised as the others had been. And accordingly Messrs. Duncan", Nevill.M D-.well & Retire wea' recognised by. the clerk. The deputy-marshal was then about to adjourn the court; when Mr. Burr recalled to the recollection of* the court the motion which he had made on a former occasion for a stibpxha duces tecum, addressed to the president of the United Stales. That mo- tion had been partly complied with. He wished to know of the couit, whether it was not a matter of right for him to obtain a. sulrpana duces tecum. If it was not, he should then lay a specific motion before the court. The Chief Justice did not belieee it to be the practice in Virginia to obtain such a mi''poena upon a mere application to the clerk. The motion must be brought before the,court itself. Mr. Hay wonld say nothing on this sub- ject until he understood the object of the application. If it was to obtain the letter which was not formerly furnished, he would inform the opposite counsel that he had it now among his papers, and was ready; to produce it. Mr. Burr. That is one object of the ap- plication. Another is to obtain a certain communication from gen. Eaton to the pre- sident of the United States, which is men- tioned in his deposition. Mr. Hay was not certain .whether he had that communication; but believed that it was among his papers, If it was there he would certainly prooXice it. Mr. Burr. But if after a search, the gen- tleman finds that he has not that paper, will he consent out of court to issue a subpa-na to the president of the United States under the qualification I have mentioned r I wish not at the present exigency, to derange the affairs of the government, or to demand the presence of the executive officers at this place. All that I want is, certain papers. Mr. Hay could not consent to such a mea- sure ; he would rather that it should go thro1 the regular process oi the court. Mr. Burr. Then, sir, I shall move for a snbfwna duces tecum to the president of the U S. directinghim to attend with certain papers. This subpeuna will issue as in the Former instance. 1 shall furnish the clerk with a necessary specification of the paper which I require. The court was then adjourned till Wed- nesday, 13 o'clock. FEDERAL GAZETTE. FRIDAY, AUGUST 6. Schr. Eliza-Ann, Russe!, cleared from Charleston for Baltimore, 27lh July. Marke* at Laguira, yth July were glut- ted with etery kinii.of merchandize ; flour at 10 dollars. There were in part unsold 700,000 dollars ivorth of American proper- ty, and getting scarce. The U. S. brig H met touched at Mal- ta, in June, and land the British Consul from Tripoly. The brig Calisto, of Bath, was at Nevis, 14th July, to sail soon ; 30 hhd^. sugar on frieght condemned, the rest of her cargo cleared. The scll'r Bet"y, capt. Brown, from Bor- deaux, was boarded on his passage from Bil- boa, off the Cordovan, by a British frigate —the officer remained on board near an hour «-took down the minutes of the Betsy's rout, &c. and permitted her to proceed.— I coming out of the Kay came through the British squadron causing oif the Garonne, and was not brought too, nor.spoken- by any of them. By this it appears that this squadron did not coiisicki' it illicit trade, 01 ^ that vessels in ballast, bound from one ene- my's port to another to take a return csrgo the United Stales were included in the 6r- 4« of council, of January 1807.
