from Court. The Jury then discharged and the Cour, adjourned io aext Monday, al 10 o'clock when the prisoners viii he sentenced.

 The whole transacIion from it's inception io the t. nal verdict of te Jury, has been OI the most eM traordnary in the annals ofcrime. An American ves- sci is encountered by pirates, in tue midst ot the ocean, hundreds of miles from land, and for aught that the parties concerned knew to the contrary, as far from any other vessel The American crew was driven be- low, beaten, menaced with instant death by fearful odds armed at a points, against them: compelled to give un S90, 900, and finally locked down below. A band of desperadoes ransack the vessel, seize upon the nautical iinsirumenls,-wanOnly cut the sails and rigging.-break the binnacle-lestToy the compass- collect the most combustibIe materials al hand-aPpy the t0Tch-Ienve the vessel i" this deplorabe cond'- tOR-repalr Io their own piraiicaI vessel, taking the boat of the American vessel which they did not want, scue it in sight of the captain, looking from his own cabin window, snd then saIug away, with the man'- fest intention of burning up the vessel and crew while locked down below This is the plain statement ot facts, as abundaDy proved on the trial. Tn ths aw- tu condition, Providence ihierposed Tor iher Pro'ec tion By chance, small scutile IS elt ny the pirates unsecured. One of the men gets out and re-

 leased all his companions from the most horrible ol all deaths-immedaIe confagraiion on the lonely ocean, far from friends and home. Probably m less than hNe minutes more, the vessel would have been enyeoped in flames! They came deck and extinSulshed me spreading fire! Evrm at that tremendous crisis these abnsed mcn Were afraid 10 show themselves on deck' lest inc dpmOnac pirates should return and consum. their deed by mMrdering them all in cold blood But their enemies thinking the Mexican past redemp-

 ton, had departed, probably in pursuit ot another sc tim, then by chance in sight. They now attempt to l repair their damages. But what spectacle Every thing in confnsioHtheir rigging devastated and de- stroyed, and they in the midst of the ocean wi'h""t 1 compass! Repairing their damages as well as they could these worthy men abandoned their me hded voyage and with empty purses and heavy hearts, shap ed iheir course toward Salem. But we have neither time room to do justice to this subject. The Mexican reaches home, and the pI- bear off their piuuder, relying for imp"niy O" the probable destruction of their victim and all on board. Providence ordered otherwise. The tidings of the piracy borne the winds to ihe uttermos

 parts of the earth, and with description of the pra

 cal vessel. Months passed away, and the news reach ed Africa, and British vessel cruising that distant coast. The Panda was there and immediately eus- pecled The result is Known. She was capture, by

 inc British vessel the captain, mate and many O! the crew taken prisoners, and after lapse of nearly two years, they brought to Salem, to be confronted by ihe very men whom they had robbed long before and buried in the deep!-What astonishing train of events Tho ex;ravagan tales Of fiction are real

 zed! The offenders brought to trial, and con- de,nned to death by the testimony of the very mel" whom they had robbed and consigned to death, and appeared in judgment against them, as were i" the | minds of the prisoners, as if risen from the dead- Such scenes of guilt thus brought 10 light by the inscruabie operations ofa good providence.
