BRITISH PIRACY
A BLACK LIST
OF AMERICAN VESSELS CAPTURED
and DETAINED in England: and English
ports, months after the repeal of the Berlin
and Milan decrees: Those printed in capi-
tals are already CONDEMNED, and others
will shortly follow the same fate. While
Timothy Pickering has the impudence to
declare that the British have not essentially
injured us his very neighbours of Marble-
head are suffering under the piracy of their
navy. What will the industrious seamen
think of such a hardened wretch & A man
who can thus sport with the distresses of his
countrymen ? Every man woman and child
must curse him and his adherents.

A state of open, casual war. cannot be
more ruinous to our commerce, than this
war in disguise ; and it would have one fa-
vorable operation ;-that of putting it .in
our power to punish and capture in. turn
Let the Canadas and Nova Scotia look at
this. And when the British armies in Spain
and Portugal are starving for bread, let
them curse the infatuated ministry, that has
thus wantonly cut off their supplies.

When we look around, and observe this
immense mass of piracy and plunder star-
ing us in the face t when we see a list ex-
hibiting no less than THIRTY EIGHT
AMERICAN VESSELS And CARGOES
some of which have been CONDEMNED
and others robbed ; when we reflect, that
between TWO and THREE THOUSAND
of our citizens have been taken from their
friends, and are compelled to aid and assist in
the present piratical system of robbery carrying
on against their country ; we cannot but won-
der at that moderation which permits the
emissaries of the plundering nation to de-
clare that G. Britain is the, " protector" of
our persons, and property, and which refrains
from instant retaliationa PBos. Chronicle

The Black List - increasing ! !
In addition to the THIRTY EIGHT ve-
ssels mentioned in our paper of the 9th,
having been CAPTURED by the English
(a majority. of which have already been
CONDEMNED,) we are now under the ne-
cessity of adding SIX more; making in the
WhOlG, FORTY.FOUR VESSELS AND
CARGOES l!! The following are the new
robberies

The FLY, Arden, from New York, bound
to St, Petersburg. captured by the Avery
Harris, and sent into Portsmouth.· The pre-
tence for this capture is that-although the
Fly was apparently bound to Petersburg, yet
it was supposed the was destined to France!

Ship ANN & MARIA, Buck. (destination
not given;/ captured by the Beagle S. W.and
sent into the Downs

The YOUNG CLARA. Stevens; and
...The YOUNG.ADOLPHUS,.Deboir,from
Bordeaux, captured by the Semiramis frigate
and sent into Plymouths

Brig ALERT, Nichols, from Bordeaux,
by the Vestal, and sent into Portsmouth. By
the enterprize and activity of her crew, this
vessel had once released- herself from the pi-
rates, when she was fallen in with a second
time,, and. could not escape the rapacious
maw of the Banditti. Soon after she left
Bordeaux, she was fallen in with by the Sc-
miramis, Capt. Richardson, who put several
hands into her, and sent her for Plymouth.
When they arrived off Ushant, the Ameri-
caus rose upon. the British seamen, and took
possession of the brig.-Four of the enemies
they battened down, and, the others they sent
adrift in the jolly boat. Soon after-
wands the Vestal fell in with the Alert ; the
Captain deprecated the, absurdity of de-
taining him, as he had been just boarded by
the Scmirathis. But upon Capt. Berkeley's
declaring his fixed determination to send
him in, he related the former affair and four
men belonging to the British frigate Semi-
ramis were produced from the hold. The
present away in the jolly boat have not
been heard of.
