In drawing conclu-
sions on this cam-
paign we cannot view
things in a very favor
able light: nothing
can be effected for. a
lgngth of time having
at all the character of
decision. Gen. Izard
has gone to Sackett’s
Harbor with 4,000
‘men, and those Chaun
cey may either take
by water or they may
be ordered by land,as
the naval and military
commanders may sug
gest Chauncey has
been and will be cau-
tious ; he will not
venture upon the lake
Ae knows our hund-
red gun ship; the St.
Lawrence is ready;
this vessel, in close
action, would destroy
all the American
heavy vessels There
fore Izard’s tioops
will have to march by
land, but they will
make the cnemy su-
perior on the Niaga-
ra frontier. This is
the result of the wa-
vering measures in
ampie,
some quarter ; measures which may pro-
1 “ar
tract the war for several years longer than
it otherwise would, had « savage generals
to kill
commanded, who never think 1ta Sin
an enemy, We, howuver, still think the
Niagara frontier will be defended, and the
superiority ol Lake Qutario be secured, &
Kingston saved , but that 1n November,
thugs will not be much better than they
were twelve months before ; notwithstand-
ing an addition of 10,000 of the best troops.
Past circumstances fully justify this cuon-
clusion. On this point we feel no fear of
censnre from any other press of liberal
principles.

Intelligence is received from Mackinac,
via Matchedache and York, stating that the
eneipy had left two armed schooners to
blockade the place, until the winter should
set in, and then retire. Col. M’Dewali it is
said conceived and executed the plan of
capturing them. This was done in the
night by a combined attack of soldiers and
Indians, in canoes and boats. We hope
this news may prove correct.

« La Cloch, Sept. 17, 1814.
My dear sir—I have only time to say,
that I am thus far on my way to Montreal,
with part of the crews of the blockading
squadron, whom we have taken by board-
ing ; say two large schooners. and one car-
tel that we have detained at Mackinac till
all danger is over. I will be down by York,
as I am to forward the canocs that put
back, and deliver the prisoners, the crews
of the two vessels, at York.

The privateer brig Portsmouth, Shaw,
from a three weeks cruize, arrived at Ports-
mouth on Wednesday, bringing in 260 bales
and cases British goods said to be between
2 and 300,000 doilars worth, which she
took out of a large ship, bound from Zon-
don to Quebec. The ship was laden with
dry goods, gin and brandy, was last from
Plymouth,whence she sailed in a fleet of 44
sail, under convoy of a frigate, and parted
in a gale off Banks of Newfoundland, when
the fleet was dispersed——she was taken
soon afterwards. The Portsmouth had also
captured a schoonerywhich is understood to
have been retaken.
The two British ships which foundered on
the Banks, and which were said to oe ordi-
nance transports, were the.Robert and the
Jolly-Tar with salt and provisions, the
crews of both being taken off.
