' FROM THE CENTINEL.
Mr. Russell,
Having been favored 'with a copy of the
following letters, I fend them for insertion
in the Centinel; they contain informs
tion,wort y public uo'ice.
Algiers, lglh December, 1793.
Honored Sir,
WE the fubferibers, in behalf of our
selves, and brother-fufferers at present,
captives in this city of human mifeiy, re
turn you our sincere thanks, for your
communications of the 29th ult. and for
the provilion you have been pleased to al
low us, in order to alleviate somewhat
our fufferings in our present situation.
We have drawn up, and signed two
petitions, one to the Senate, the other
to the House of Representatives, and we
(hall eiteem it, among the many favors
you have rendered us, that you will please
to forward thefc petitions to their respec
tive address, so that no time may be loft,
but that they be laid before the Repiefen
tatives of our country, hoping that the
United States, will fully provide funds
for extricating from Captivity,and restore
us to our country, families, friends and
<<3 W
connections.
We have pcrtifed with sentiments of
fatisfa&ion, and approbation, your me
morial to the regency of Algiers, and
have to observe, that its contents fully
coincide with our fentimente on this busi
ness, which we trust, in the Almighty,
will terminate to the honor and interelt
of our common country, notwithstand
ing the insinuations, (of others in this
quarter) to the prejudice of the United
mw&uot
States.
We trust, and hope, that the United
States will adopt such effectual plans, in
order to pi event any more of our Bre»
thren, (haring our unhappy fate, which
unavoidably must happen, if some speedy
and decisive means is not immediately put
In execution, as we understand the Fer
tugueze truce, with this Regency, w;:»
agreed on for one year.
What damps our spirits in some degree,
ii, that we are informed, that the plague,
that fatal, and tremendous dilorder has giv
en its awful alarm in the country adjacent.
And as your unfortunate countrymen were
confined during the night time, in tile
Slave-Prisons, with fix hundred captives
of other nations, that from our crowded
situation, we must be exposed to this con.
tagious disorder which neceflilate the
fubferibers, to intreat you Sir, that in this
cafe, those our friends, and of influence
in this Regency, will be authorised by
you, and fitir honored countrymen, Mr.
Carmichael, and Mr. Short, to have a
house taken for the residence of the Ame
rican matters and mates, and if poflible,
the mariners, to (hield them from the
threatening (lorm of mortality, and dan
i g er -
m&rthtf
We make no doubt, but in cafe of the
Almighty's Wrath, visiting this city o r in
iquity, but the Dey and Regency would
acquiesce to the proposed plan of humani
ty, which would be establishing an exam
ple for the general welfare ofmmkind—
aud would to pofhrity be recorded to the
immortal honor of the United States.
The fame time, honored Sir, and friend,
be you allured for your consolation, that
we the Amer'can Captives, in this city of'
Bondage, will bear our fuffe-ings with!
fortitude, and resignation, as becoming a
race of men endowed with superior fouls in
adversity.
We are much indebted to Monf.
Skjoldebrand, and Brother, his Swedish
Majchy's Agent 6, in this city, for their hu
maoiiy, and attention to the American
Captivei, and feel ourselves particularly
obliged to you, for recommending us : o
the good offioe9 of Consuls Skjoldebrand,
and Mr. Mace, whom you mention to u?
as friends.
