JA'S SHEPHERD. * * * * * _Piranga_, Spithead, July 5, 1835. Received of Mr. W. Jackson, Secretary to His Excellency the Marquis of Maranham, &c. &c. the sum of two hundred and thirty-five pounds sterling, in order to pay the same as prize-money to those persons, late of the _Pedro Primiero_, but now belonging to this frigate, to whom the sum is due. L.235 or 1,175 000. * * * * * There is, however, _one omission_. The payment of the crews is not adduced, because the pay books were sent with duplicate receipts to Rio de Janeiro by the _Piranga_. But as no reasonable man will imagine that I publicly paid the officers and _neglected payment to the crews_, the omission is of the least possible consequence. But lest the payment of the crews may be disputed, I subjoin the following extracts from the log before quoted, from the commencement of the payment, to its termination. DATES AND PARTICULARS. 1825. March 16th.
