On Saturday last Thomas Cooper, who
waq indifted for a liljel againfl the'Prefident
of the United Sta'es, was tried in this court
and found gnilty.
The indi&ment was founded on a publi
cation signed by Mr. Cooper, which appear
ed in Hand Bills, printed in Northumber
land county, in this state.—The libellous
paflages mentioned, were in effe&—
i ft. That the President did not possess
fufficient capacity to fulfill the duties of
his office.
id. That he had created a permanent
navy.
3d. That a Jtanding army had been cre
ated under his immediate aufuices—and
4th. That he had interfered in the ju
diciary of the United States, and caused
Jonathan Robbint to be delivered over, for
execution, to an unrelenting military tri
bunal. I
Mr. Rawle opened the cafe by animad
verting on the above felefted passages, and
called Mr. Buyers, a jutlice of the peace of
the county, to prove Mr. Cooper the aa
thor—who said, that Mr. C. had called at
his house with the paper—said thai w bit
name, (pointing to it i > the paper) and that
he ifas the author of the piece.
The indictment having been founded on
the law commonly cali«d the frdition ait,
nothing now remained but for Mr. Cooper
to give the truth in evidence. Having fail
ed in his attempt to procure official docu
ments of the President's anfwera to the nu
merous addreffei from the citizens of the
United States, Mr. Cooper proceeded to
read from a book containing them, certain
paltages m fubftant/ation of the truth of
the charges alledge.l against him—but this
was declared by the court not to be lega!
evidence. Mr. C. however, read numsroua
paflages, and continued his defence until
exhauiled and unable to proceed. The in
dulgence of thecourt here was manifefted by
Jud -e Chafe, who declared he would pa
tiently wait until he was able to resume bis
defence.
HaVin'g failed in every attempt to procure
evidence on w ich to ground a defence,
Mr. C- concluded, and Mr. Rawle addres
sed the jury in reply. Judge Chafe then
furrmed the evidence, and the jury in a few
minutes retU'ned their verdift GUILTY.
We understand that the Court hare ap
pointed next Wedncfdly to hear any thing
Mr. Cooper may have to offer in extenu
ation ; af.er which the Court will pafsjudg-
meiit.
The Circuit Court of the United State*
commenced in feffiun in New-Haven, Con.
last Monday. Mr. Holt, Editor of the New-
London Bee, we undcrli.nd was to have his
trial yeflerday.
-J. W. FENNO.
About two o'clock yefttrday morning a
fire broke out in the binacle of the (hip
Hope, lying at a ichor opposite Walnut
ftreit wharf, but was extinguilhed without
much damage to the fliip; except cutting
away her luizen mast.
Ar/ived in Haihpton Roads on Wedntf
<!ay evening, thr brig Gcmrge, Ferral, i 3
days from thr Bay of Honduras, Informs,
that the brig Eliza Wright, Rlclurdfon,
belonging to this port,'ij loft iii Btlefe rivei ;
part of the fails and rigging saved.
Yelterday arrived here the brig Pearle,
capt. Evelith, 12 d.,ys fr >m St. Thomas's.
Sailed under convoy of thr U. S. brig'Ridi
mond,'ifi company with 7 fail bound to the
northward. April -sdinl.it. 21, long. 65,
spoke the U. S. fliip Baltimore, all well-re
turning to her station.
By this airival we have also received in
formation that the United States brig- Picker
ing captain Hillar, had, undrr lee of Guida
loupe fallen in with two French privateers,
(•ne of ten guns and the other of four guns)
lvliich he engaged for four hours. The re
fultof the buiinefs was that he had captured
the to' gun privateer and had driven the
■('milter one on (hore and destroyed her ; we
are allb informed, thst in that heroic aili'in
captain Hillar fi»d fallen a vi£Um. Should
this rircumlbtnce be true, as we are sorry to
fear it the cafe, we have to lament the death
of a brave and very intelligent •(Seer, and
•whose abilities merited a better fate.
The fame arrival lias brought information
that the French frigate Vengeance, (whom
the gallant Tmxton engaged, and obliged to
put into Currapp.i) had been,-condemned as
unfit for lea ; tfie greater part of her ciew
had arrived at-St. Thomas's before the Pearl
failed.
