As eoon as the pirate discovered that we
vteto gaining, he gave us several shols
of his long Tom, but tho distanco ws too
great, and by sunset he was hull down
fiom the poop; a few minutes after lis haul
ed in his square-sail and studding-sails,and
rounded to; and when last seen, was very
busy In picking up the balo gooJs, which
would no doubt come in play, thought not
quite so acceptable to him as the dollars
would have been sweotensd with our blood.
At dusk, we could just discern the villain,
dying to.
See nil secure inhold, Mr.Tomkins, and
!put on the hatches; and as wo have a steady
tradewind, let her go till midnight 'tsouth
ioulh.westj and let all hands get eomo rest.
1 must do the the same, for I am nearly done
up.'
The excitement being over, I was nearly
prostrate, and afttr thanking God with mote
fervor and sincerity than I ever prayed be
fore, I threw raysolf iulo my berth, but
kad a feverish tad dreamy sleep till twelvo
o'clock, when my trusty mat called o ac
cording to orders.
'Twelve o'clock, sir.'
How is the wind and weather?'
'Fresh trado, sir clear and pleasant
mon rising going nine, large'
Take in the lower studding-sail, Tom
fcins, and haul uy. south east, if she'll go it
good full;'
"Ay, y, air.'
It is BUfficisnl to inform the patient reader
that we saw no more of the pirate, and
made much better progress sow that our
barque was in ballast trim only. We fin
ished our passage without farther troubte.
Many were the jkes cracked by all hands,
as they talked over tho events of that day
of excitement. The underwriters not only
paid for the cargo thrown overboard at once
on receiving the news, but, an learning the
particulars, Voted a piece of plate for roe,
and a gratuity in cash for the mates and
men of eqbal value.
In conclusion, I have met e'.y to remark,
that the above tale is founded on facts,
and is not expected to inte.est any, except
nautical men, being too full of technicalities

Anew volume of the popular family newspaper,
Saturday Evening Post, will be commenced
on tho first of May, 1842, ibeautif jlly printed oa
tho finest whito linen paper. The Post is the old
est and best established piper in the Union, having
already got to the commencement of tin
23d Volume.
While scores of papers which have been started
in tho last twenty-thrco years, have passed away
forever, the .Post stilt maintains its proud position
in point of ciiculation and profit, at the head of the
family newspapers of the day.
The great size of tho paper enables the proprie
tors to give a greater variety of original and selected
matter than can he found in cotemporary sheets.
Tho paper has been greatly
Edlarged aitd Improved,
And now appears in handsome new type, and has
received the praise of many editors of taste, ns the
' handsomest family sheet in the Union' Our ef
forts have been directed to the combining of beauty
and simplicity, with utili'.v an taste. The Posr is
printed on stout white paper, rendering it neat and
durable for filing; while in size it surpasses every
other weekly newspapca in Phitadclpnia, and has
received from its cotcinporarics the tile of
The' Philadelphia Mammoth.
The great size of the paper enables us to give all
impoitant Congressional proceedings at length, and
all reports and other impoitant public documents
in full, together with occasional Congressional
Speeches in full.

HEBREW PLASTER.
THIS Recipe, obtained of an old Jew by a trav
eller in the Eastern countries, bids fair to bo
cf immense value to the Western world. Since
this plaster has been introduced into America,
every other plaster, salve, ointment or lina
mcnt has been discontinued by all who have had an
opportunity of testing tho superior medical virtues
of the Jew David's or Hebrew Plaster. Truth,
though simple, is powerful, and will prevail with an
enlightened community, over all tho puffings and
ficiitious affidavits with which tho world is Hooded.
The sterling worth of this plaster, is recognised, ap
preciated, and its use sanctioned by tho highest
classes of society. One simultaneous burst of ap
probation arises from the thousands who have used
it, which shows, that when a remedy possesses high
ly intrinsic merits like this, it docs not fail of re
ceiving the patronago of our intelligent public.
