The brig Betsey, belonging to Mr. Daniel Sargent, of this town, and com manded by Jofepli-Saunders, of Cape Ann, failed from this port, in September lalt, for BilEoa, and fofely arrived there. Some of the crew, fearfulof falling into the hands of the Algerines on her homeward bound paflage, left the brig, which obliged Capt. Saunders to (hip other hands. Accord ingly he took on board one Flemilh.an Ital ian, and aPortuguefe sailor—who, when at iea, rose upon the vessel, entered the cabin, and killed a passenger by the name of Wood, belonging to New-London, in con. ne&icut, who had fold some cargo in BiJ boa, and had on board the Betsey the pro ceeds of the fame, which the Pirates being acquainted with, occaConed the horrid deed, in hope? of fordid gain. They like wise attempted the-lives of the Captain and Mate, the former of whom received three dangerous wounds, notwith(landing which they were drove out of the cabin" die mallei, mate, and one boy contrived ways to secure themselves in the cabin, by fattening, the companion and cabin doors. The pirates, not long after, being delfcu tute of provisions, demanded foroe°of the captain; upon being refufed they drew lots for one of two lads that were on deck, which to deftroy;—and then info ined the Captain that one of his boys on detk would soon be killed, except be fumifh ed them with provisions. The captain knowing it to be in his power to preserve the life of a human being, and aduifted by the feelings of humanity, consented thereto. Five days after, one of the lad* espied a fail near the Western-Islands, and secretly informed capt. S. of the lame ; who in the evening hung a lanthern or light out of the cabin window ; by means of which she was taken by a British let* ter of marque, and carried into Barba does. The pirates were confined in irons and sent to R this port. They arrived hers on Saturday last in the brig Betsey, and were committed to jail yesterday, for tii '*'• -Captain Saunders is nearly recovered of his wounds; being well attended toby the fkilful Doflor which was on beard the letter of marque. The Mate likewise was stabbed in three places, but is reco vered. CONGRESS. TN SEN4TE, Friday, March 18.
