The interest of the former geneially predominated, end they seem to have had a peculiar facility in" identifying themselves i the feelings of the Indians, and in gaming their affections but even in this quarter, the seeds of disaffection were early sown, and ripened, as shall see, iuto an abundant harvest.

During such a contest for supremacy, both in power and commerce, the great advantages, offered by an establ.slnuent upon this river, could cot escape the observation, of the contending parties. In fact, it is difficult to conceive, why it was so long postponed, and we can only account for it by recollecting, that the French had another and safer way, by which they could communicate with the north-western regions. If the English entered the country at all. they must enter by this route, and a position here, was in fact the key of the whole region above ui.

A great council vvas convened at Montreal, at which were present all the distinguished chiefs of the various tribes occupying the country from Quebec, te It is described by the French historians, as the most numerous and imposing assemblage, ever collected around cue council lire, and it was attended by the governor-general, and all that was noble and powerful in New-France. Its discussions, and proceedings, and result were fully recorded, and have come down to us unimpaired. The whole policy of the Fiench intercourse with the Indians was considered, and wants and complaints ofthe various parties made known. The Iroquois stated, that they had understood the French general was about to establish a post upon the Detroit river, and objected to the measure, because the country was their-, and they had already prevented the English from adopting the same step. The governor- general, in answer, informed them, that neither the Iroquois nor the English could claim the country, but that it belonged to the King of France; and that an expedition, destined for this service, had already commenced its march.

And collect from the narrative of the proceedings, that in June, IfOl, Mons. lie la Motte Cadillac, with one hundred of the Ottawas actually visited that place. They retumed disaffected to the. French: interest, and persuaded that the post was established here to restrain, and eventu- tually to subdue ihein. They set fire to the town, but it was fortunately discovered and extinguished before much injury was done.

Jn the same spirit, and about the same a pauy, on their return from a successful expedition against the Iroquois, paraded in front of the Fort, and attempted to induce the other Indians to join them in an attack. Monsieur de Tome, who then held the command, detached the Sieur de Vin-f- cennes to repulse them. Thai officer executed the duty i so much valor and ability, that the Ottawas were defeated, and in their precipitate flight, abandoned their prisoners, who fell into the hands of the French, and were restored to their countrymen. At that lime therejwere three villages in the vicinity of One wai a Huron village, the site of which was upon the farm now- owned by Col. Jones.

Another was a Potawatamie village, upon the farm of Mr. Navarre, and tin) third was a of the opposite shore and about the were permanently occupied, but great numbers occasionally resorted here; and it is evident from many that the country was populous, and the" people well supplied. Charlevoix, who visited it in 17Gl, represents it as the most desirable part of New-France. Game was abundant, and herds of buffalo were then ranging upon the prairies about the river Raisin. The first serious calamity, which threatened the infant colony i destruction, aroie from an unexpected quarter.

Until this time the Ottogamies or Foxes were little known, and no striking event had directed the attention French towards them. We are therefore unable to trace the causes, which induced them to take up arms, or the means they had provided for the accomplishment of their daring enterprise. They appear- to have been connected with the Iroquois, and with them, to have embraced the English interest. Their history, for fifty years succeeding this period, a history of desperate efforts, directed against the French and many of the tribes around them, evincing a firmness of purpose, a reckless valor, and a patient endurance of misfortunes, worthy of a. better cause and a better fate.

In May, 1712, they determined to destroy the town, and in conformity with the usual tactics of the Indians, to -make their arrangements, secretly, and to execute them suddenly. Under various pretences they collected in the neighborhood in great numbers. Du Buisson was then the French commandant, and his garrison consisted of about twenty soldiers. The Ottawas, Wyandots, and Potawatamies, upon whose friendship and assistance he could rely, were a sent from their villages, enga I 3. London Fashions.

Five times its fiag has changed, thiee different sovereignties have claimed its allegiance, and since it has been held by the United States, its government has been thrice transferred twice it has been besieged by the Indians, once captured in war, and once burned to the ground.

Identified as we are i its fate, we may indulge the hope, that its chapter of accidents has closed, and that us advancement will be hereafter uninterrupted. We have no where a connected account of the progress of this colony occasional notices are interspersed through the French historians, and detailed des- ciiptions are given of a few ofthe more important events, but the whole subject is involved in much obscuiity. The statistical facts are altogether have no comparative estimates of the population or production; none of those severe investigations into the character and condition ofthe country, which render modern history so valuable and satisfactory. A small stockaded fort was erected, extending from the present arsenal to Id-street, and enclosing a few houses, occupied by the persons attached to the post, and the traders. The whole establishment was slight and rude, intended rather to overawe than seriously to resist, tlie Indians.

Only the third year after the position was taken, the in its vicinity were invited to Albany, and many of the men anJ a Jesuii, left Montreal-, ting.

The Ottogamies, finding their object discovered, commenced the attack, but on the third of May the French were greeted i the siglit of a powerful body of their friends, naked, painted, and prepared for The gates of the Fort were immediately opened to them and they entered the council house, where in a conference with Du Buisson, they professed their attachment to the French, and their determination to defend them. They were received and answered, as their professions and well merited.

In the meantime, the Ottogamies had retreated to an entrenched camp they had previously formed, where Jefferson Avenue intersects the eastern boundary ofthe city. Here they were invested by the allied forces, and a erected, overlooking the ofthe Ottogamies, from which so severe a fire was kept up, that they could not procure water. Their provisions were soon consumed, and hunger and thirst reduced them to extremity. Despair, however, invigorated them, and becoming the assailants, they "succeeded in gaining the possession of a house adjoiniug the Fort. They strengthened this new position, and annoyed their were at length dislodged by the cannon, and driven back to their trenchments.

At this time they made a pacific effort to terminate hostilities, and with this view a deputation was sent to Du Buit- son.
