T H E P I R A T E S Q F ~ B A R R A T A RI A . ' W e subjoin from the Globp, several extracts from Charles Jared Ingersoli’S forthcom ing Plistory of tho W a r o f l 8 l 2 , which w i l f be r e a flw ith great and gen eral interest, astouching upon circum stances calcu lated to attract the attention o f every reader. The story o f t h e pirates ot Barrataria form s a romantic episode in the history of that war, and the account of the locale of Louisiana is given with a graphic force w h ich renders it scarcely less attractive than the sketch w h ich Mr- Ingersoll affords of Lafitte and his comrades. D irectly after C o lonel significant procla m a tion, he sent from Pansacola, through Captain Percy, com m a n d ing the British sloop-of-war H erm es, senior officer o f t h e K ing's service in t h e G u lf o f M e x - ico, an official letter to M ister L.afitte, (as he was ra ther ambiguously, however respectfully styled,) comr mandant of the privateersmen ( commonly called pi rates, f o f Barrataria, offering ihirty thousand dollars and a captaincy, with chance of further promotion in t h e Bri'ish serv ice f\r his co-operation to assemble aud organize under British authori'y fugitive Indians, vagabond negroes, denationaiiy.ed free hooters, and ali sueli inhabitantH ( tho official letter ran) of Louisiana, M ississippi, nnd K e n tuclfv, ns,} having witnessed the folly and felt tlio oppivssiuu o f Uie Am erica n G overn ment, wouM accept tlie service and protiction of Great Britain. T o sin h. vilu uses wrro tho .le^crh-- dnnls of tho l'onowned P i’i cys ami Spi'iicern, (by Eu- ;rjish eouitesv styied honorahlp,) com n u u iiling the idotps-of-wnr'lform es nnd Cliuroo, reduced in this unworthy w a rfare—-bribing slaves to join their-diii- honored slundard, promising to restore their lands to Indians, and guftratitee their future occupation by the tomthaw'k agninst lho plough. Captain L o c h y e r , in lhe B rilish brig -o f-w a r'S o p h ia, proceeded to lhe Is land of Barratafia, wh.TB hib m in ion wfeiperformed by prescriting: P e r e s's letter, and pcrsaipPlly prayirg Mister L a iiue to prevail on his b a n d i t a p put thein- sd v e s under the proffered protection cB G r e a l Brit ain, promising that they shouW be r e c e J h as -British subjects, and rewarded by g/an t s of lalpr in Am erica. T h ere were three L a fittesjfope in prisip at N e w Or leans, two at the isolatedlnorass w h e * their lawless camp w a s pitched on the Island of Barrataria,,near the Bay of Barrataria, some m iles w ist of t,he iriple m ouths of the Missis.si[ipi. T h e r e environed and fortified by vast sumjjneT marshes and w ipter floods, on waters below those o f the G u lf of M e x ico, L a in lGtJf) — which admiralty droits now form part of the admiralty law of Great Britain and the United States, and m iy be the subjects of many Wars, No piracy is more fligrant than thnt by which tlie British crown went to war without declaring it; setting fleets to full on the commerce of other nations hy sur prise, and capture ihein in order to replenish an ex hausted royal treasury. The elegant Old World, w n h its refinements, looks vvith contempt and speaks wifh abhorrence of ihe upstart freedom of tho New; like Captain Percy’s opinion of the white savages ot Kentucky, when Ire invited LaBt'e to liberation from ; their vulgar oppressi in, hugging itself in self com placent superioiiiy of morals, manners and politics Loyalty and law shine with polite splendor in Euro- pean institutions; while piracy., robbery, homicide, theft, rebellion, brawls, Bowie knives, tomahawks, arid rifles, are snid to characterize the lynching sa- vageism of the new^spttlemcnts of Ameiiea. flow fur the ancestral infljence of such commonwealths as the brotherifof the coast, nr the latter contagion of Lufi'.te’s bnndi|s,may have affected part of- the Ame rican population; w hether the pedigrees £f such ho mes1 as tlie founders of thal won lerful Sl!if(?, l)l 0 TeX* nn Republic, and thn various itiexplicabie nations ot Spanish America, may pariake~o£the ferocious chi valry of former adventurers in these .p'sjions, it is certain that the sanguinary explnPS of tho battle of the H y a c inth,' and all the iiiipuled barbarities of modern America, are eciipsed in horror and in hardi hood by tbe autheniicated and svsiema,tic enormities of bu caneer government. It defied (distressed, and intimidated the Spanish empire when that w.ts the controlling, empire of Europe. N o r , is there, in the maritime achievements of V a n Tromp, or Admiral I Forbes,'anything that surpasses those of the pirates j o f T o r tuga, except in the scale o f operations. T h e , turtle-fed tyrants of the W e st India seas were as trr- rible in their ^ravages as the more acpom p lishedinas-. ters of lho Mediterranean and lhe Northern Ocean ; 1 and were their cruises ot conquests m 're atrocious?

Their only vessels were open boats, without great g u n s ; and they were so inured to hairdships, that b-ittle was relief from the privations of their ineb'ment cruises. . Si^ht of a Spanish galleon seemed to phrenzy them with a passion of plund'-r. Despising broadsides, they attack-1 ed large armed vessels from their boats, boarded and j took them with pistids nnd cutlasses. Increasing in I power as their piracies extended, they turned tlieir ; irresistible arms from the ocean to the shores of both j North and South America; storming and sacking many of the most considerable places ol the N e w j World, Mar-icaybo, Campeachy, Vera Cruz, I’orto .Bello, Cartliageua, G'tynquil, P a n a m a and others,! wtre forced to submit lo their cutiquests, and stripped . ofmtUiuns of dollars, pU ndered and car lied home to therr-hiding places ; where, like beavers m their mi raculous dann, they hoini'd iiiconceivnb'e treasures.
