The gallant Commodore PoRTER,
on reaching Cuba with his squadron)
to aid in the suppression of piracy,
found, as he believed, that an order

ALSO,
ints of doctrine, (catechisms jin that neighborhood, two tracts of
unimproved land, containing
2000 acres,
the quality of which, comparatively,
is the best in that county.
These lands possess advantages,
which many in that country are de-
prived of. They are situated three
or four miles from the Susquchanna
River ; four or five from the mouth
of Anderson’s creck ; and (rom a mile
o a mile and a halt from the turnpike,
leading from Erie through Bellefonte.
I'he Stateroad from Huntingdon 1o-
tersects this turnpike, and passes the
houses of the improved tracts. Per-
sons wishing to erect water works of
any description, will find these lands
in every respect well calculated for
that purpose ; the seats on two of the
tracts, one improved, are considered
the best in that part of the county,

ports, this order, whether it formally
existed or not, was actually enforced,
to the manifest encouragement of the
pirates,and to the great obstruction
of the operation ol the American
fleet. The Commodore, therefore,
wrote two successive letters to the
governor general, stating the facts,
and calling upon him to ¢ counter
mand the order.” General Vives,
the successor of the then governor
general, very promptly, on coming in-
to office, replied to the commodore,
that the government of Cuba had no!
issued any order prohibiting the’ en
trance of any vessel under his com-
mand into its ports, but assured bim
on the contrary that the squadron un
der him « would meet with every aid
and co-operation on the part of the
Jocal authorities inthe pursuit of pi-
rates who may shelter themselves io
the uninhabited coasts, compatable
with the territorial privileges conform:
ahle to the Taw of nations.” In ac.
cordance with this frank and honora-
ble declaration; General Vives issued
a circular to the several commandants
of the Island, requiring their aid to be
given to the American squadron.
(dommodore Porter immediately wrote
“a letter of thanks to General’ Vives,
felicifated him on his arrival at Hav-
anna, and assured him that nothing
{but a severe iandisposition had pre-
vented him from paying his respects
in person to him. Piracy may now be
confidently expected to he completely
