Cummanduag his -. Majesty's lo;ces in /lurch America. kitaki-Qtlartcrs, St. NaVirli, Niagara Ircrti r, Attz,-J3t 25, 1313. Major-General rrocter ktving given way to the - clamour of cur Indian allies, to act offensively, moved forward on '2oth ultimo, wit:: about three hundred and fifty of the list regimclt, and between ; three arid fear thOusand Indians, and on tilc CI inst. attempted to carry, by assault, the hiock-houses and works at Sandusky, v..hcre the enemy had concen trated a considerable force. The Indians, however, previously to the assault, withdrew themselves from cut of the rc,ich of the enemy's fire. The handfull of his Majesty's troops employed on this occasion, displayed the greatest bravery—nearly the whole of them having reached the fort, and made every eff,ift to enter it; but a galling anddestructive fire being kept up by the enemy, within the block houses and from behind the picketing, which com pletely protected them, and which we had not the means to force, the Major-General thought it most prudent tint to continue lOnger so unavailing a con test : he accordingly drew off the assailants, and returned to Sandwich, with the loss of twenty-five killed, as many missing, and about forty wounded. Amongst the former are Brevet Lieutenant-Colonel Shorn, and Lieutenant J. G. Gordon, of the 41st ;eginient. I am happy to be able to acquaint your Lordship, that it aPpeara by further accounts received from Major-General Procter to the 23d instant, that the enemy bad been disappointed in an attempt to create distrust and disaffection amongst our Indian allies, by a deputation of Chiefs, sent by them for that pur pose, and that in a talk, which took place between the Deputies from the American Indians and the Chiefs of our Indian. warriors, the contempt with Which General Harrison's proposals were received by the latter, and the determination expressed by them of adhering so the cause of their Great Father in England, appeared sensibly to affect the Deputies, and affords strong grounds to believe that the na tions whom they represented will not be induced to ti,lce up arms against us, or their Indian brethren actitig with us. On my arrival at this fro :tier, I found two thou. sand British soldivi4 on an extended line, caoping up in Fr;t George, an American force exceeding tour thous.l.4 men : feeling desirous of ascertainins in per s on the extent of the enen;y's works, 'and . of view. ing the means he possessed for defending the position he occupied, 1 ordered a general demonstration to be made. Fort George- to commence by the attack and stnTme of :al the American piquets thrown out in its :roc , . This service was execated to my entire satieaction ; the piquets were driven in, a great,part of them heing taken, with a very trifling loss, and I found myrelt cicse to the fort, and the new entrench ed camp which is.f.rrned on the right of that work, both of them crowded with men, bristled with cannon, and supported by the fire from Fort Niagara, on the opposite . side of the river; but no provocation could induce tli;! Americin army to leave their places of shelter, and venter 7 iato the fielct. Having made a display of rn i . Jrce in vain, a deliberate retreat en sued without a casualty. • Since I:st , l the honour of addressing your Lord , s lip on the Ist instant, every possible exertion has been made by Cmnmodore Sir James Yen, but in vain, ti' bring the enemy's squadron to a decisive .actions repeatedly Las he offered them battle, and as repeattdly have they declined it, which their great superiority in sailing►, together with the light and bafilling winds picvaihng on the Lake at this season, has enabled-them hitherto effectually to do. He, however, was fortunate euoul;h, on the night of the instant, to get so close to with the enemy, as to '''' 5 i , 'i r. 464' ' , LiA ,' :,,, , 4. •• -..f i tt ° • . . s . . 4% ~,.... . . 4 ,,,,.., . . frUSE OF IietICASTLERg., . s Ito be t rinte 1. tir. LUSIijAiGTO .r ."....m. 311 i nis.ga Ili render an action inevitable, unless they' chose to sa crifice two of their schooners in order to avoid it ; to this sacrifice they submitted, and Sir James had the satisfaction, atter a few shot had been fired, to take possmion of two very fine schooners, the one carry ing one long 32-pounder and two long sixes, and the other cuc lung 32-pounder and one long twelve, with a complement of f,:rty men each. Having proceeded to York for the purpose of refitting his prizes, 1:e sailed from thence with them in pursuit of the enemy lon the 13th instant, and having followed them down the Lake on the rth, again saw.theru on the 18th, bur Was unable to come, up with them. On the eight preceding that of the capture of the ! above vessels, two of the enemy's largest schooners, carrying nine gun's each, overset and sunk, in carry -0 in.: sail to keep from our squadron, and, excepting sixteen persons, all on board perished, in numbers about one hundred. Sir James Ireo has been into Kingston with his squadron, to take in provisions and refit, and since sailing has cruized off York and Niagara, but has not seen any thing further of the enemy's fleet. I understand that Commodore Chauncey, with his squadron, after the loss of his schooners in the night of the 10th, returned to Sackett's barb:,ur, from which place he sailed suddenly on the 14th, and again re turned to it on the 18th, pursued by our fleet. I have not yet been able correctly to ascertain whether he has since left it. MIISI'AItY PROMOTIONS.

THE EVENING STAR. LONDON. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1819. It was wisely said by the Earl,of Lit -Enron in the House of Peers, at the opening of Parliament, the: we ought not to look on the recent success of tee Allies as a signal for inaction ; and most nobly di3 his Lordship add, that 48 the crisis was come for greater efforts than had ever yet been mrle." 1.• is precisely in the same spirit that we speak, when, a; a furtherance of the desirable object of " a permanent and general peace," afterwards alluded to by his Lordship, we profess our eagerness to unite Holland in the sacred league new formed for the re•integrati— ' of Europe. But let us not visit Holland in the attitude of an invader, until we have sounded the dispositions which prevaii among the more enlightened and perhaps the more numerous of her inhabitants. There was e. tine: when every lialiander v.-as proud of the Plebeian no bility which a long line of pntriotie ancestors bad be title:ldled him—when remembering His Belgic sii . cs of al, Polish, poor, content, ungovernably bold r Ile would have thrown off his constitutional apathy, and, nt the beck of England, would have hurled tl.e vengeance of a haughty but virtuous Republican. against his more successful because more powerfu'i oppressor. We hare no r 7 ght to suppose that this. spirt is extinct.—How dun, when nations and i-cl viduals have entered upon" the valley of the slindar of death," - has %nme flint glimmering of hope shoe!. iag across the horizon awnkened in them a sense ci dignity, or brought on that premature agony of glor,. which gave birth to a new Era?—How often has th spark, struck hem the collision between the chains of the innocent prisoner and the anvil upon which they were rivettect, inflamed him with that generous despair— the "slier una vide—so beautifully describ ed by the Poet—nuilam sperarc :Atm . 1 which gave him liberty and life.—How often, we may add, have nations, from sudden impulses given by trivial cit• £umstances, emerged from the depths of rnoralatal political degradation with materials for the founchn tion of a towering and durable prosperity, furnished by the ruinsuf their former grandeur Let us address the present inhnhitants of the N:. therlands—the Flemings—the Biabanters--and the Dutch—as if the crisis of their regeneration was at hand. A thousatsi animating recollections will spring up in the mind of every enlightened Hollander, v,lien England declares that she is will'ng once more to become the Protectress of the StatesaGeneral, at,,i the asserter of their independence. It was under the auspices of ELIZA/MT/1, that the Dutch, headed by WILLIAM, the First Prince of Orange, held at cle• fiance and ultimately threw off a foreign yoke, taking their full measure of vengeance fir tke atrocities of the Duke or A VA, the bl n-clh and of his day, if in return for this benefit, it was under the auspices of Holland and her Stadt.:older, LIAM, of glorinus memory, that England eff eted het regeneratinn in 168 n ; an event which gave rise to the noble and successful struggle of Elm .pe, aga:nst the boundless usurpation of Loris XIV. which was finally extinguished by the Treaty of Utrecht. Fcll of confidence in a good cause, King WILLIAM raniei around him the drooping nations of the Continent: he had the rare felicity of uniting Priaestants Catholics in one solemn league for their indepet deuce. Spain and Austria, both governed by Ca! thotic Princes, took arms in defence of Holland, a IProtestant country. Prussia, although fir removed from the seat cf wa:, declared for what was then most aptly called the " good cause"—the lacocic deckration of wa: of hex S9vereign, the Elector of Brandenburgh, met to be the text of every Manifesto issued against Bo ; NAP IItTE. It briefly accused the French Monarch of " perfidy, crueky, treachery, and an intermia tble spirit of conquest, which required the union of civi lized mankind to keep within bounds." _ I At that period, it required a war of twenty-fout years duration., with but little interruption, to drir* France within her Ancient limits. From 1689 to 1713 (the epoch of the peace of Utrecht) she cJnt• nued to lose ground in every campaign, and thrice she supplicated peace. The language iu which King WILLIAM called upon his English Parliament to em- bark in the great object of the deliverance of Europe, was precisely that which has been held by every enligh t tened statesman who has succeeded him in the direc tion of the affairs of these realms. He called upon Parliament to put itself into a posture " to preserve to England the weight and influence it at in-trent had on she Council: and afaire abroad. It will be requi,ite," his Majesty added, " that Europe should see you are not Wanting to yourselves." Great were the mortification which spirit had to suffer, before he could rot of this country to a sense of their real was in Holland when he formed hit foreign policy, and the state of the gn g lnd was thus described to him by 46 There is a deadness and want of sp' tion universally, so as nut to be at enter into a new war." And yet ami4 toward circumstances, sing WILLIAM He came over immediately from 14( r d lids his gallant / r rouse the people C interests. He is great plans of public nand in y Lord SUMEHS ;pit in the Mit It all divsed tp id a t : t js ;v l e i t r ie d . 7: 46. i i
