1. 1 1 From the Baltimore Federal Gasette, April 13. It will be recollected by our readers, that when the documents relating to certain charges made by the Com. Perry against Capt. Elpublished, in January last, Lieutenant Matthew C.

Perry, a brother the deceased Com. Perry, stated in an address to the public, that as soou as practicable, he would publish certain 4 documents on which he relied to substantiate the charges which had been urged agaiost Capt. to Elliott." have, received a pamphlet, in which Lieut Perry, after the documents heretofore published, introduces those promised by him, The with the foregoing following remarkwere published without the knowledge of the relations of the late Com. PercielL.is with regret they find controversy in that which the pablicationot willinglv have engaged; as they do, that the repatation of Com. believing Perry in the estimation of the goveroment and the nation is too well established to require any dafence.

Captain Elliot having however asserted 66 in a newspaper publication, that he had in his session the evidences necessary to destroy the object of this attack, and that he had prepared the materials to justify the rank which had been conferred on him, and which he only withheld from publication from motives of I considered it my duty publicly to call on Capt. Elliott to exhibit the documents on which he relien for his justification against the charges in the of publication to which Com. Perry's name was attached. Captain Elliot has published those 66 evidences :11 and I now in conformity, with my pledge, and discharging the which I to the memory of my brother, lay before the public the following additional documents which (with the exception of Lieut. D.

Forest's have been copied from the original affdavits in the possession of the committee appointed by the Legislature of Rho Island to collect documents relative to the action on Lake Erie between the American and British fleet. MATTHEW C. PERRY. New. York, April 6th, 1 1821.

Copy of the Affidavit of Lieut. Thomas Holdup Stevens, commanding U. S. sloop Trippe, in the action of 10th September, 1813. When the American squadron had approached the enemy within about a mile, and the enemy bad commenced firing, the signal was made by Com.

Perry, to engage as you come up, 'every one against his opponent, in the line as be fore designated to this signal, the situation of the Niagara should have been abreast of the Queen Charlotte, within half a cables's length. The Lawrence went gallantly into close action, and her example was followed by the Caledonia, Lieut. Turner; but the Niagara continued to bug the wind, and remained in the position she bad taken at the commencement of the action til a few momenta previous to Com. Perry's boarding her. There could not be any rational object in the Niagara's keeping at long shot with the Queen Charlotte, as the amount and descripLion of their force was equal, and being princiat the distance capt.

Elliott kept his ship. From pally carronades, no effect could be made by the number of light sails the Niazara had, and there being a leading wind, captain Elliott might at any period of the action have closed with the esemy, relieved the Lawrence from the dreadful and destructive fire kept up upon her from the united forces of the Detroit and Queen Charlotte. It was the general opinion of the officers and men of the squadron, that capt. Elliott did not do his duty in the action of the 10th September and that had he been impelled by a becoming, bravery, he would hare made greater exertions to have taken so active part io the fight. Great irritation was produced in the fleet in consequence of it, and this opinion continued to be Jy expressed till it war made knowa that Com.

Perry was desirous of protecting captain Elliott from the effects of such reports. Every exertion was made by Com. Perry to screen captain Elliott from the injurions impressions made by his conduct bat the volunteers in the deet did not pay the same regard to Com. P'ercy', wishes as was done by the officers; and many of them har. ing witnessed the conduct of capt.

Elliott, gave full expression to their feelings and opinions respecting him. It wasa received opinion in the fleet, that previous to Com. Perry's going on board the Niagara, she had but one man wounded, and that her opponent, the Queeu Charlotte, from the account of the British officers, suffered but very slightly previous to being engaged in close action with com. Perry. When the action close-1, capt.

Elliott was on beard the Somers, and the accounts from that vessel were very unfavorable to captain bravery, as it was reported he beat the captain of the gua very severely with a speaking trumpet, for having laughed at his dodging fa shot which passed over him from the enemy.

Barclay, Lake Erie, whon we were within the distance a mile from the enemy, who had commenced Sring, the signal was made by Com. Perry, gage as you come up, every one against his oppovent, in the line before designated." The situs. tion of the Niagara should have been abreast the Queen Charlotte, and of course as near he could get, as previous to the action I had always understood from Com. Perry that it was his intention to hring the enemy's fleet to close actien in care of a couflict. The Lawrence went into close action in the most gallant style, follow el by the Caledonia under the command of lieut.

D. Turner, who kept her in herstation, agreea bly to signals. The Queen Charlotte made sail and closed with the Detroit shortly after the action commenced, and directed her fire at the Lawrence. The Niagara still continued to a long way astern, and firing at long shot main time before Com.

E. and the American dron steering large, (with the exception of the Lawrence, she being at the time entirely disabled and lying like a log upon the water,) the Caledonia took and maintained her station in the line, which was just astern of the commedore during the whole of the action. It was the opinion el the officers and men of the squadron that Elliott did not do his in capt.

duty the action on that day, and that had his conduct been that or a brave man, there is no possible reason that can be ven why his vessel should not have been brought into close action with the British squadron, fore Com. Perry went on board of her. Great indignation was expressed by the officers in general at the base conluct of capt. Elliott in neglecting to support the Lawrence as he ought to have done But understanding that the sandore desired to screen him, they forbore to make any remarks publicly upon his conduct. volunteers in the deet, however, not being actuated by the same motives which in laced these under Com.

1813, while Ou or the let commanding the U. S. schooner Scorpion, on Lake St. Clair, capt. Elliott came on board; in the course of conversation the battle of Lake Erie being introduced, he observed, that the officers and men of the Lawrence, including Com.

Perry, were by no means entitled to prize money; and still further, that the other officers men of the squadron were even entitled to prize money for her, she being a recaptured vessel." He also observed, that in the action he was far from the enemy that he only fired his 12 pounders during two hours and a half; the so reason he assigned wes, that he had no signal from the commodore to change his situation complained much of commodore Perry's injustice towards him, and said, fle only regretted that he had not sacrificed fleet when it was in his power to have done so, on that account." He also expressed sentiments to that effect frequently afterwards at Buffalo, as I was informed by the citizens, and midshipman Senatt, who was present when the observations was made.

Charter fear that the electors the different wards are not sufficiently alive the ensuing election of charter officers, whereas we think it is of primary importance.

The 2d ward, however, has already made an honorable nomination; the 3d, 6th, 8th 9th have called meetings for a similar purpose, and why has not the first? But as we do not understand this, we wait for some explanation. Will it be said that the present alderman represents the interests, the views, or the feelings of this rich and respectable ward THE KING'S ORDER, Or the glorious prospect of the 51 hugh-minded. We have it from undoubted authority, that the 33 bucktail members of the Orange county convention for nominating a Congress candidate, 24 favour, of John Duer, and 9 in opposition; and that upoo the vote being declared, the minority refused to abide by the decision the majority, declaring they would not support Duer, and that in case the majority persisted in running him, they would start an opposing candidate. Upon being asked the cause of their opposition, they stated that they acted in accordance with the wishes of Martin Van Beuren, whe commended that Mr. Duer should not be citizens, what think you of this dictation? Are you ready to make Martin Van Beuren, King? not, arise your strength, and break his power.

Mr. Douse ought to hare expected such joined a perfidious party, and for him we have not a thimble full of pity. We give the above from the Columbian and take it just as we find it. We understand that the successful candidate against Mr. Duer, is a tain Tuttle, who commands one of the North river sloops; which is probably what recommended him to the vote of the electors, as a man who can render the president essent'al services, in relation to our naval affairs.

In the mean time, let me relate other fine evening as I was on my way home, I met a gentleman, who, in the course of couversation, told me that he was going to a Caucus of the Corporatiou. We parted -but what was my astonishment next morning, when, on enquiry, I learued, that every measure brought before the Board, is previously and dried in Caucus.

This determination, it was said, arose out of the recent events at Maracaybo, and the occupation of it by Bolivar during the Armistice.

It originated in the kitchen of a house belonging to Aaron Lazarus, Esq. situated a little to the south of the resirence of Mr. Robert Brown. The building, together with another which was used for a chair house on the premises of Mr. Brown was consumed, other out buildings, fences, materially injured.

Steam Boat Water -Ever since the use of steam boat navigation, a water wheel of which the paddles, while moving through the water, should always be at right angles to its surface, has been considered as a great desideratum for, in this case alone, the force applied would act with the greater possible advantage. Accord. ingly, many attempts have been made to accomplish this object; but, so far as we know, all have hitherto proved obortive, or so complicated as to prevent their use. It gives us, therefore, peculiar pleasure to announce, that we have lately seen a model of such a water wheel, the construction of which is tremely simple, being no more than a common wheel, of which the paddles are cou-tantly kept in a vertical position. This is effected by counter cranks passing through, and firmly fixed the centres of the paddles, and through an ternal wheel of the same diameter with the water wheel; but moved by it rouod a ditferent centre -the vertical distance of the two centres being equal to the radius of the connecting cranks.

The model alluded to above, way be seen at No. 138 -street. POSTSCRIPT. 2 O'CLOCK, P. M.
