t NEW-YORK, May 24
At a general meeting of the owners,
a mailers and configees of American vcf
- le.s, who have had their property seized
at ot. Pierre, Martinique, for the pur
poles of coining the different cirCum-
Itances attending this illegal procedure,
10 kri ert L ° f ° rm 3 (tatcme »t of fads, and
publish them on our arrival in Americ ,
" j,i of our countryinc ,
o Late the following eircumttances: vu.
hat having failed from America be
tween the month of November and March ,
' . 'alt palt, arrived within the above periods
. ' at this place ; that we were tranfeaW
; our business as we were accustomed to do!
i "Z imported nothing contraband, or
! in any refpta violated the laws of nei »
tralily.
That on or about the third day of Fc-
bruary, the Britifli fleet and army appear
ed off this island, and commcnced the
e £ c °f't J that they landed their troops
on or about the fifth day of February,
<it t nmty, and on or about the seven
teenth of the fame rhonth, appeared of,
landed, and took pofferilon of the town
—the following day officers were sent on
board our refpeclive vefTels, our fails were
unbent, our colours torn down, ourselves
with oi(r mates and seamen "were taken
I out of our vefTels without being permitted
j to take a Tingle change of clothes, fecuie
| our cabins or trunks, and were carried 011
j board afhipof war; and after undergo
ing a contemptuous examination', were
coWviyed on board a prison-ship ; hei'ewe
were crouded together to the number of
two hundred and fifty persons, in a fmail'
iliip with afr.igle deck, without any kind
of provisions except what we received
from our friends on ifjore., and even that
with great difficulty, as they forbid' any
boat coming along fide the fiiip. "We re
mamed in this situation three days ; dur
ing which time we made applications to
the commodore, Capt. Nugent, of the
ship of war called the Veteran, and beg
ged he would supply us with provisions,
or at leali let iis go on shore to provide it
for ourselves, and we received this laconic
reply—7 hat he should give us nothing
"that we were a set of damn'd rascals, and
might ftarvfc and be damn'd. That at
length, a commissary was appointed to Tup
pi)* the seamen with provisions, and we
were permitted to go on shore and live at
our own expense; some of us w.:re per
mitted to go on board our vefTels, to look
after our trunks, bedding, clothes, &c.
and found that our cabins had been fhame
fully plundered, our trunks and chests
broke open and robbed of every thing of
value, our papers, that were of
to any person but ourselves, torn and des
troyed ; and, in fact, a line of depreda
tions exhibited that could have been only
produced through the effects of malici
ous revenge and th* frenzy of intoxica
tion.
Our vessels were moored together so
close, that in fifteen days many of them
chaffed through and funk; some drifted
to sea and never returned; others drove 011
shore and bilged; our unfortunate seamen
who were unable to live on shore, or their
captains to support them, died daily on
board the prtfon fliip; some were seized
and put on board the (hips of war. That
after more than a month's fufpence, we
were informed a court of vice-admiralty
was eflabliihed to try us (or rather to
condemn us) and we were monitioned to
appear and anfwe.- to the libel; almost as
soon as we heard the court appointed,
when our preparatory examinations ought
to have preceeded its issuing, which con
vinced us that as the judge had commenc- '
ed illegally, we could cxpeft nojufticc from
him : that another month had almost elap
sed when we were told that we mult give
security to prosecute our claim, for what
he called double costs, to the amount of 60
johannes, to be certainly forfeited should
we be condemned : this wc unanitnoiifly
