to prove the labor o I freemen to be much wore
productive than that ot Jlaves » that countries arc

The Public are cautioned to

be dtjiingui/hed by the following

Twenty Dollar Bills of the Bank of North
ALL that have appeared hav* the letter
B. for their alphabetical mark.
They are printed on a paper nearly similar
to that of the couuterfeit Five Dollar Motes
above described; the eyigraving is beitei exe
ucted, and they approach nearer to the ap
pearance of the genuine bills.
The fine ruled lines through the word Twen
ty, in the body of il>e bill, are in number thir
teen in the genuine bills, and but twelve in
the counterfeits. '

The word Company is much like the fame
word in the Five Dollar B lis as defer ibed a
bove, the o being lels than the/*, and others
following.
There is no stroke to the t in the word North
whereas in the genuine bills the stroke is well
defined.
The letters cnt \n the word Twenty, to the
left hand at the bottom, do not come down to
the line, but are so cut as to give an irregular
appearance to the word, the Tta and '.hey go
ing below them.
The Signature J Nixon, has the appear
ance of being written with lamp-black and
oil, and differs from the other inks used in
printing the bills and the cashier's Ugnature.
It »s iuppofed these forgeries were committed
in some ot the Southern Stales, as all the coun
terfeits that have appeared, have come from
thence, and two peifous have been apprehend

of them.

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

of his wounds; being well attended toby
the fkilful Doflor which was on beard

was stabbed in three places, but is reco
