Extract of a I,:tter from A. C . II kNSON, Esq. dated near Baltimore, August 2, ISl`2.—•‘ Next to the death of Gellerdi I.ING. N, whose exit was truly noble and characteristic, the panic prevailing among the people in and near Baltimore, has smote my heart more severely ' than all the wrongs and Ju it erings inflicted by the blind and ferocious agen's of anilignant, cowardly, blood-thirsty enemies, sheltering themselves for a tune under an irresponsible banditti. My wounds, it is t rue, are numerous and severe, but they reach not my mind, not give a in.inent's tuleasiness or grief ; but the gloom and despondency pervading the body of Federalists, within the sphere of Baltimore, influence, inflame my very brain, and are as a thousand daggers aimed at my heart." This letter, which is of considerable length, concludes thus : " My wilting to you is more of an experiment than otherwise ; and I cannot dictate, as no one will be my amanuensis, the doctors and nurses all insisting that I shall neither write nor talk, and I can do net'.er without danger. I have six wounds on the head, either of sufficiently severe to induce an inflammation of the brain,wit out great care; both collar-bores are hurt , the extremit y et' the s pinal:uoite injured, and extremely painful; the breast bruised, and now painful ; the fore finger of the right hand broken, anti the whole hand injured, Navin,; been twice stabbed, once through with a pen knife, and my nose broken. These are the injuries 1 have received, hut they do not give ntc half the pain that the despondency of my politi cal friends inflict." PROVINCLI L S. HARVEST AND PLENT Ir.--The prudence and foresight of the cui tivators of the ground, in sowing plentifully at seed time ; a succes sion of fruitful showers, and the genial beams of the sun ; the favour able weather in the appointed weeks of harvest; all, all have con spired, by the blessing of Providence, to fill our barns and store s uses with food for wan and beast. From all the provincial News papers we have the heart-cheering information of abundant crops, and in most places of their being well housed. The markets are every where failing, and the most confident expectations are formed of farther reduction ; but a few days ago the Winchester bushel of wheat sold in our market for upwards of a guinea ; on Saturday last the same measure was at an average of thirteen shillings and sixpence. A few weeks ago potatoes were as high as eight shillings a measure; the average price in our market on Saturday was not more than two shillings and sixpence ! Truly, this is gratifying news, which, while it administers joy and gladness to the poor, should excite in their hearts the tribute of praise to the God of the seasons.--(CRESTLR 'APER.) Lately, as Tames Adamson, of Postern Gate, near Hull, was fishing in the'Humber, he had occasion to put his hand under water, when he imagined himself bitten or stung under the thumb nail by a venomous fish. The wound, not being considered of consequence, was neglected till Friday se'nnight, when a violent inflammation had taken place in his hand and arm, for which he was copiously bled, and otherwise medically treated, as the case seeaied to require. The inflammation was not, however, arrested, but proceeded with such rapidity to mortification, that the poor mail died on Monday. At several of the provincial horse fairs, a gang of jockeys have been very successful in , disposing of horses, fed with pepper and other stimulating spices, as of a superior quality, at near ten times their value. I n four instances the animals died in the course of a few weeks after the sale. WORCESTER, SEPT. 12..—The company at our Music Meeting, was rubbed as they passed in and out, in the most daring and outrageous manner, by a gang from London. Mrs. Mutlow, the wife of Mr. Mutlow, the organist of Gloucester, and who presided at the organ at this festival, and her brother, were attacked at the door by the gang, and their arms were held while their property was forcibly taken from diem. So much violence was used to Mrs. M.'s brother, that he could scarcely use his arms on Friday, from the bruises he had received. This created some alarm, and several gentlemen were on the alert yesterday to discover the gang, and one was discovered among the crowd from his motions, and was seized by the constables, who took him before Alderman Nash, when all the account he gave pi himarli wai, that his name was Morton, and that he was from London. He had bank notes to the amount of 331. found upon him. lie was very properly de *•ed in sfedy. Leans, SEPT. 12 • Mr-- woollen MADLItaC Cildersom:, in i:J• viinnber of tine , about one o'clock, the kill Li►:dsey and Sons, of e, was attacked by a e doors, destroyed 17 'o. pair of shears of the best kind, and greatly injured the iradiintry used in raising and dressing the cloth. This depredation w.is coin. pleted without lights, and the time occupied in its perpetration did . not exceed twelve nunu.es. A correspondent at. Huddersfield, under date of the lOth instant, says :—Several persona have been apprehended on the various charges of Luddism, and arc now in custody here. A nuniher of others have this week abjured their illegal oath, and taken the oat h of allegiance ; they see the calamities they have brought upon them. selves and neighbours by the atrocious depredations they have coo.- mitted, and the delusions they have laboured under ; and it is to be hoped they will all follow the laudable example of these their as i;ociates in discharging themselves from that unlawful and ruinous systreat in which they have unfortunately been engaged, and return to their duty and al'egiance before it is too late." BosTON, September 14 .—A bout four in the afternoon of Thursday last, as George Daybell, farmer, in Swineshead, and Charles Roberts, a labourer, were reaping wheat, four Irishmen came up to them and asked for work as reapers. The road was close to the field where Dayhell ar.d Roberts were reaping, and one of the Irishmen, who w as in liquor, got over the ditch, and was inclined to he very quarrel owe. Being told by Daybcll that he had no work for him, he begin to cut off the ears of the wheat with his sickle, and throw them about the field. Daybell requested him to desist, and seek fur work elsewhere, which at length he consented to do, and with his companions went away. In passing Roberts's house, however, which is hard b'., the Irishman wantonly plunged his sickle into a pig which belonged to Roberts. The children of Roberts, on seeing this, called out for assistance, when their father and Daybell, who had been witnesses of this outrage, ran towards the spot, having first called to their aid John Carnal, a farmer, who took his gun, which was loaded to shoot the birds among his corn. They pursued the Irishmen, who were making off ; and coming up with two of them, one of whom wes the fellow who stuck the pig, Roberts demanded satisfaction for the injury, which after some altercation was agreed to be given, and a piece of dirty paper was tendered as a guinea note ; but it appearing t.) be only a part of an old newspaper, Roberts refused to accept it. In the mean time the two Irishmen who had gone away, returned with five or six more of their companions, armed with sticks, sickles, Sec. Alarmed at their appearance. Roberts requested Carnal to let hint have his gun, which was complied with. Roberts, however, did not think proper at that time to use it, and he, with Daybell and Carnal retreated, and were in their turn closely pursued by the Irish men, brandishing their sticks and sic kles, and exclaiming we'll give you SATISFACTION for the pig !" Roberts, who was the hind most, finding himself almost exhausted, and perceiving that his pur. suers were nearly up with him, turned suddenly round, and charged the gun at the man neares t him, who was only a few yards distant. The contents of the piece entered the stomach of the unfor tunate person, and he expired on the spot. This put an end to the pursuit, and no farther bloodshed ensued. Roberts, who was great. ly affected at this dreadful catastrophe, made no attempt to elude justice, but readily yielded himself up to the constable sent to appre. head him, anxiously awaiting the verdict ot the Coroner's Jury On opening the body of the deceased, whose name was Terence Fagan, aged ti.o years, it was found that seven shot-drops hail passed ',rough his heart. The Jury, after some deliberation, returned a verdict of " Justifiable Homicide ;" the witnesses Daybell and Carnal having sworn, that they considered their owtt lives and that of Roberts to ba in danger. SERIOUS IN SURRECTIOY THE IRENCII PRISONERS AT DARTMOOR. DEPOT. PLY MOUTII, SEr r. ti.—An express arrived here last Light, at eleven o'clock, informing General Stephens, that a serious commotion hail broken out among the prisoners in Dartmoor Depot, that the Cheshire militia stationed there were under arms, and that immediate assistance was necessary. Three field-pieces, with fifteen gunners and fifteen artillery-drivers, were immediately sent oil to Dartmoor, anti their appearance quickly restored order among the insurgents. It appears that the bake-house having been burnt down last week at Dartmoor, in which bread for the prisoners had usually been bake 4, a pound and a half of biscuit had been served out to each wan, but tthe his had been reduced, by an ord er from Government, to one pound, usual allowance of bread. This was resented by the whole body of prisoners (about 7,000,) and they skewed so determined a disposition, that such measures were found Necessary as were adopted. They even had it in contemplation to fire the prison, and effect an escape. Some of them were for seizing the depot of arms at Tavistock, but tilt appearance of the artillery settled every thing. Five o'clock, Monday.—l have just now seen one of the Glotice' ter mlitia, w ho cam fom Dartmoor a feW hours since, then i quiet, though e it r was deemed prudent to keep the aroilcry there. !FURTHER PARTICULARS, September 15.—1 t appears that the prisoners had ‘vorkeal them selves up to the highest pitch of rage, at being aito‘‘ed Ito more t 1,311 one pound of biscuit per Jay.
