BY THIS J)AY'3 MAILS. NEW-YORK, July 9. Ycfterday came 011 the t'ri.il of one Krou ther, tor a rape. 1 he circu-mltances attendant oil the cum million ct this brutal violence, were parti* cularly Aggravating. The pnl'oner is a man ol about torty, with every mhrk on his sice of a "cr:ifty, unprincipled villain. The girl wis a child of i'catce fourteen years—he told her (lory with a r tie Is nil's and tears. Ihe horror of the diabolical frene, seemed' ltill trefh in her memory. Her palled coun t'tiance and trembling accents fliewed the extremeff agitatioh. It fee 11 1 s this monfler had the address to invent some pretext, by which he pcrfuaded the fofter mother of the child to let her go to his lodgings. He lock ed his door—and with threats and force ex ecuted his guilty purpose. He even threat ened her, if she refilled or made any out cries witfi iiVllant death, 1 lie criminal had nb otlfer apology than, that she was a whore ! Every fentimerit of nature, every evident: of fafl, revolted at the insinuation. Ihe Jury returned a ver dift of GUILTY, This is the iame wretch who lived in the house ot Guliana Sands, at the time flie was murdered—who had attempted to seduce her •—who was absent at a suspicious place that very evening, and whopurfued the fufpefl ed young man with the utmost malignity. It Appears also, that thisfiehdhas more thin one wife, and that the y, who has fentin two privateers within a few days. To tbe Editor of the Daily Advertiser. To prevent any unfavorable impression which the mifrrprelentations of calumny might make upon t';:e public mind relative to the rencountre which took place yesterday between the troops of the garrison and a collection of low feilpws, I have thought it a duty I owe to myfclf n/rd the public to t/iv«j. a circumstantial narrative of the affair. During the period of my bting llnioncd at this pod, ai'd for fume considerable time before, the difficulties and rexations which «very officer belonging to the garrison bive experienced from the fojdiers frequenting a public house, situated jujl without she gar rison limits, and kept by one Mr. North, ■were very serious. At this house the sol diers were not only fullered bur ercouraged 10 get intoxicated, which pive rife to fre quent disorders in the garrison. As soon, therefore, as I was sent to take the conim I'd -fc.-ie (in April last) I determined to prohibit r is far as possible, all intercourse bv the l'ol- | «i ; ers with the house in qutUion, I accord ingly ilTued an order to that effeA immedi- j ateiy on iny atrival. liy the f.mc order,! pat roles were direfled to reconn raise a dis turbance with the foldjerj. Some of the very fellows that are now in co ft e" ctit, l:ave been confined before in the fame place for the fame offence. - J STILLE, Captain of the 2d Regiment of Arj Ikrifts and Enguice s—command ng.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION. Extract of a letter from Messrs. Tbo-nas Dickinson & Co. dated London, April 20, 1800, ta Mohrt Hooper, Esq. of Mar bielead. " The Polly, Lj(key's cafe, was yeflerday argued in the Admiralty Court; ar.d we have much piealure in infprroiqg you that rcfi'itution of the cargo was decreed." The Polly was loaded with Havanna Su gar and Cocoa, and boilnd to Bilboa. The Sugar was purchased with bills on the Ha vanna, that were bought. at Bilboa by the fame tnafler the preceding voyage. The Cocoa was never landed, but taken from a vefiel belonging to the fame owner, and im meuiatel)' put on board of her. The Ad miralty Court, however, convinced that the whole was knafide American pro, pertj, ordered leftitution thereof. The arrival of the American Ship San fom in the river Ganges from England is mentioned in the last India Gazettes receiv ed in London,—she had one man kiJed, and a lady, paflenger, wounded, in an engage ment with a French Privateer.
