They announce the anti-pacific tidings of the arrival in the St. Lawrence of 6000 more of the troops detached from the Duke of Wellington's army to Canada, convoyed by seven or eight sail of the line, besides a number of large frigates. It is added, these vessels are ordured to join the squadrons on the American coast and that the blockading squadron in our bay will be increased to six sail of the line, besides frigates Other troops were also daily arriving from Ircland, England and Nova-Scotia. Eastport, Major Putnam, Captuins Fillebrown and Varnum and two Ensigus have arrived at their homes from Eastport, on parole. They confirm the reported particulars of the capture of that place; and speak highly of the discipline and good conduct of the 102d British regiment which were so much abused by the Virginians for their reported conduct in Hampton.

All alarm in the vicinity of Eastport had subsided. Com. Hardy has assured the people, that the expedition had only in object the capture of -which he repents, belungs to his Royal Master.

August 6. FROM MALIFAX. Passengers from Halifax, state, that business there was brisk and prosperous; and supplica in great abundance: -The trade wns very advantagrously carried on with the West-Indies, the Baltic, Mediteranean, -some vessels which have returned from the latter, sold their fish for 520 the quintal No and had that the arrived lumber there trade from wan very us good. troops Europe, reported, but a very strong force was daily expected, The report of Thursday, said to have been bro't by the cartel from Halifax, that the no raciation at Ghent had been off, was an impudent fubrication. On the contrury, though the prople in Halx gencrally were growing rich by the war, it was the of the Governor, and the must intelligent people there, that Pence would grow out of the negociation at (thent, and be concluded before Christinas.

FROM L.ISTPORT. We learn, that the British engincers were making Lustport prodigiously strong, and other mess. ores had been adopted, which made it appear to be the intention of the English to hold permanent possession of the Commodore HARDY, in the Ramilies, and a sloop of war, were all the armed vessels there, The people appeared very happy and were pursuing business with spirit. FORT MICHILIMACKINAC. Lettera from Vermont, dated the 29th July, state that on the 4th July, an expedition of' 700 men, commanded by Col.

Our Ontario Fleet certainly Sailed. The Western Mail of Inst evening furnished us with the two following letters, one from Sacket's Harbour, and the other from Utica, with the additional articles relative to the late battle on the Niagara TO THE EDITOR. 4 SIR, PACKET'S NARROUN, AUGUST 1af, 1814.

have at length the gratification to announce to you the departure of the fleet. Commodore Chauncey, having recovered a sufficient degree of health to resume his duty, was conreyed on board, and with all the force. undor his command, took his leave of the Harbour early this morning. The spectacle, sir, was truly grand and benutiful-To see a fleet, consisting of ten sail in all, on an inland lake, some bundred miles from the ocean- sailing majestically down a bay. surrounded with the most picturesque scenery--and proudly advancing to meet a haughty and contemptuous foe of equal, if not superior, strength--was something so novel, so interesting and extraordinary, as to gratify the fancy, and excite the admiration of the most indifferent and stupid spectators.

Sufficc it te say -that the variety and elegance of; the scene. exceed my powers of description, and would furnish an excellent subject for the poet or the -About 1500 militia, commanded by Gen. Martin, have recently Arrived at this post, to continue thirty daya in service, if wanted so long. The officer now commanding the regular troops in this station, is Colonel Mitchel: Gen. Gaines and suite having started for the westward immediately after the arrival of the news of the recent hard fought action at Queenstown- in which Maj.

Gen. Rial, with En ofhis Officers and 200 troops, were taken prisoners, and which you hare probably received some time since." From a gentleman al Utica, to the Fest -Master in this city, duted Utica ed of August, 1314. DEAR BIR, By a letter received from the Harbour, per Express mail, I am inforided that the feet's sailed yesterday morning, and were out of sight at 4 o'clock P. M. The British feet were off the Harbour on Sunday (day A letter from a gentleman in Lima, Ontario Cuunty, to his WHend in Troy, dated July 28, I have just learned by conversing with a young man who left Buffalo last evening, and Fort Erie in the afternoon, after the remains of General Brown's army reached there (Fort Erie) that the battle; has bean very obstinate and sanguinary--that General Brown kept the battle ground has made prisoners Major General Riali, and the two ads of General Drummond, with 15 officers, and 200 men, and las taken two pieces of artillery-But, ou the other hand, that both Genoral Brown and General Scott are woundedthat the brigade of General Scott is almost destroyed, only 000 remainining out of 3 regiments -that Gen Ripley's brigade ja also much cut up, as weil as the volunteers.

Capt. Harris's company took the two pieces of artillery, with the loss of the whole company, except 18 men. He states, that there remains of the army about 3000 have just conversed with Judge Tupper from Buffalo, he left there on Tuesday morning, and enquired particularly as to the means of crossing the Niagara liver, from Fort Erie to Buffalo, which General Brown's army possess- -they very scanty, as the fleet has gone up Lake Erie; and as there is reason to fear the British may come up before the army can cross, the result may be most disastrous. The inhabitants are alarmed at Buffalo, and again removing." The Cananduigua Repository, speaking of the Battle of Bridgewater, says: It was, unquestionably, the most bloody conflict that lias been on land during the present war; and fur determined bravery and obstinate combat, it has, perhaps, seldom been excelled. This is evident not only from the number killed and wounded, but from the singular result--that neither army can well claim the viclory.

The enciny were indeed repulsed but on the next morning, when our force went on to the battle ground, to take care of the slain, they again appeared in order of battle. The contost, however, was not renewed, both parties doubtless feeling willing to relinquish a conflict in which each had suffered so severely." The same paper adds, The number of British officers taken is 18 they have passed through this place for Greenbush. On Friday morning our army lay at Fort Eric, under Gen. Ripley. The British who have lately teen reinforced, wore said to be within a few miles." The American Fleet, under Commodore Chauney, sailed from Sackert's liarbor on Monday last.

NEW-YORK, Aug. 5. FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT. Tuesday evening, Aug. 8.

5 Mesara. Lewis Hall, We learn, by the western mail of this erening, and also hy an officer direct from Gen. Brown's army, that the situation of the remnant of our forces at Erie is gloomy The army is so much reduced- -owing to the immense elnughter in the late battles, and to the small detachmonts sent off as escorts to the wounded, and us guards over the prisoners -that the main body, now commanded by Gen. Ripley, docs notexceed one thousand men. When the officer left Fort Erie, Gen.

Ripley had just received a from the British commander to surrendor, and had but two hours time given him to consider it. From Sackett's Harbor I have information direct and correct. The fleet had not sailed on The conunodore is still very ill; but it was said he would be carried on board his ship in the afternoon of that day, and that he would positively tail on Monday. Sackett's Harbour is not garrisoned by more than 500 effective regulurs, and perhups 500 militia.

M. Pole, commander, at Hell Gate, are now employed in diving into the Hull of the sloop of MERCURY, J. Montecommander, sunk in 1777, in the North River, opposite Mr. Roulet's seat, 7 miles from the city. From the wreck of the have been brought up, most of her guns, in a Mercury of perfect state, some demijohns of liquor, bottles wine, rum, porter, china bowls rivetted with silver, attached to which are oyster and 'clan shells.

Tlicse articles, particularly the liquor, sell for enormous prices, owing, no doubt, to their improvement from nearly 40 years seclusion from the air. A friend having put in our possession Steel's List for October 1788, we find that the HosSAR WAS sunk by running on the rocks at Hell Gate in 1770 and that the MERCURY went down de. in consequence' in of running foul of a chevcaux 1777; N.

These facts speak a language too plain to be misunderstood; a language that cannet possibly -But if any honest Madison- ans shonld doubt, after all, of our anti-com-i mercial system being a real appendage to that of the Emperor of France, let them peruse his own comments npon it, and they will And that he himself, over and over again, represented the United States their efforts with his, and he highly applauded them for it. And although there is no evidence that he declared expressly, and in so nanny words, that the goverminent of the United States had adopted his continental system, yet one of his journalists "did yo declare and publish.

In a Paris Journal of April, speaking of the measures adopted against England, by the European allies of France, the Journalist remarks Americans on tiseir part, are establighing in the new world, another continent system, which draws still closer the blockade to which Eng; land has subjected berself by menacing The copartnership, which was meant to have been indissoluble, has been dissolved the unexpected failure of the principal individual of the frin.
