FKIDAT, JULY 26, 1822.
Our Supreme Court, which has been
fitting since (he 17th ult. is expected
to adjourn to-dav or to-morrow. In
ur next, e hope to be able to give to
ar risers a list of the Gases decided
at this Term. . .
flie Crop The Milton paper says,
that in that section of country there is
emv prospect of an abundant Crop.
Th?" wheat harvest is just over, and
lUogh not very heavy, is more than
sufficient for domestic consumption.
The at harvest is , unexampled, and
the corn crop is more promising than
las been known for a number of years
in many places the crop is as pro
active as it seems possible for the
cni! to moduce. The tobacco crop
tno, the staple commodit v, is as pro
mising as could be wished. .
. We trust the late rains will remove,'
in some decree at least, the apprehen
sions entertained on account of drowth
i&gorce parts of this neighborhood.
The Bank of the United States has

At the U. S. District Court, for the
Northern District of this State, held
in th? village during the present week,
the, Hon. lloger Skiriuer' presiding,
came on the trial of Jonas AV hitney
Fa rns worth,1 for forgirigUhiterl States'
Patents for Military Bounty Lands.
The trial is said to have been conduct
ed with a great deal v of patience and
solemnity. Not having been present
during any part of the trial, we are
unable ' to prrsent any thing further
than that the awful sentence of death
was pronounced upon the prisoner.
He is to be hung the 0th of Septem
ber next. This seSitence has to un
dergo the approval of higher constitu
tional authority.

tainment was on .toe 18th inst. given
to the Baron Hvde de Neuville, at the

A number of distinguished guests were
present, among, whom were the Hon.
Rufulving,'timothy Pickering, Count
de Menb'ri, Count D'Espinville, and
others. SeeraU appropriate toasts
were drank, which we have not room
ro insert at length. On drinking tlie
health of Baron de Neuville. he rose
and said : . s . .
" I pray you gentlemen, to accept the ex
pression of my profound gratitude, for the
very flattering reception with which you have
honored me this day, and for the distinguish
ed marks of kindness and benevolence I have
received froiu the United States, in whatever
situation it has pleased Divine Providence to
place roe. Permit me to offer you my best
wishes for the prosperity of a city of which I
was, and ever shall remain a citizen, if not bv
j right, in my htart at least.' Permit me, gen-

we; in company with the Shark, have had
a most arduous and tolerably successful
cruise among the Keyes to .the south- of
this, place. We have been in, porsnit cf
the pirates ever, sinfce we sailed from the
Haranna 'a p-reat nart r.f tlie time in oneu
, - o j . I

schooner f, but only, took three of the pirates.-
The vtrssel we have here with us
we have to keep a, very strct watch over,
as the people swear vengeance & threat
rn'thHt they will take her f rem. us;' but'I
think in that they will be disappointed.
" The b'ats of our vessels now on this
station are not sufficiently large '.to cope
with the pirates, and We have no means
of attacking them except in boats. The
head man among them, .Don Raphael
Gondolpho, has three schooners under his
command, and two hundred, men. We
sail in the morning for tbe Spanish Main,
where we understand they have gone, and
if we fall in with them, I think we shall
give a good account of them. The Shark
is to cruize off Cape Antonio. "We were
very much grieved on our arrival here to
learn that. Lieut. Clements, of Marines,
had died j and a great nuruber of, the offi-.
