About one o'clock en. the Pike, being else no ship and outselling the est of the squedees, condhenoed an action with the may at half gansahot, and sustained his fire singly fot two hours' Wilms our ether ships came up.

About fear o'clock the enemy bore away, and came to anchor near the shore, under the guns of Burlington heights. " The Compodore, apprehensive of getting aground, tbs. etlo4'MeiVitig a gale directly on shore, deemed it not prudent to'follow ; be therefore beat up to - Fort Gene, off which place he anchored on the morning of the lsts The Pike had three men killed and 19 wounded by the bursting of a 24-poun der, and one killed and four wounded by the fire of the enemy. But one shot passed through her bull, though several struck. The injury dope to the enemy appteted to have been considerable. The Wolf had her main and wizen top-masts shot away, and the Rural George lost her fore topmast. One of our schooners lost a mast in the gale. " 09 the 2d of October the squadron having re. paiN4 damages, and men the army pass down our shore is about 300 boats, proceeded again in quest of the inight of the Lake. He was descried on the 4th, but lost sight of during the night. On the mar aing of the sth, Commodore Chauncey, suspecting the enemy had gone down the Lake, immediately crowded all sail for the False Ducks, with an inten tion of cutting off his retreat to Kingston. At two P. M. three sail were descried a-head ; the Pike and Sylph immediately cast off the two schooners they bad in tow, and gave chace, leaving the rest of the inadron under the command of Captain Crane, of the Iladisoo. On nearing the enemy, there were dis severed to be seven sail, viz. five schooners, a sloop, and gun boat. The schooners were captured without tesistaote : the sloop was abandoned and set on fire by the enemy, and the gun boat was run on shore.- 0.. a squadron arrived at Sachet's Harbour on Wed nesday morning, with the five prize schooners, each arrying one gun, except the Growler, which carried two. and having on board 259 men of De Rotten t•Jrgh's regiment, Major Grant, Aid-de-Camp to De Rottenbergh, and 48 other prisoners, making a total 308. The enemy's schooners were on their way :pnn the head of the lake to Kingston. We trust :s news is only the precursor of more brilliant vhievernents on the frontiers." " MONTREAL, OCTOBER 5. An unofficial account has been received at head ri-arters, of the action which took place on the 28th ultimo, between the two fleets off YOrk, by which it appears that the engagement lasted for upwards of t!lree hours, and terminated by the enemy's declin , to follow our fleet to their anchorage at the head "i the Lake, although the wind was in their favour. ttortly after the commencement of the action, the Wolfe lost her main and rnizen-top-masts, which . deka bee' tittli the go* j tail** chiding the %mai the Mimed beritatioa, and tea. tillued the action, Mail* t!ielence bf the 'Mad Obli ged ben as she toad not mitt sail safficiebt to beat ai Madinah toluit away heap it thapatds the beak of the Ifolka a lrhere t sgnada eel emba th anchor that evealag, and where they remaiaed matting sad gar ling in new top.atista for the Wale on the laths " Oar ships suffered no material injury ilailagillip eargesiont t we have five-men killed—the womidai not know& " Three of the enemy's schotmets appeared to be very much crippled, and one of them is said to have been sank. The Madison, which bore a great share itt the action, appeared also to have suffered much : The Pike is said to have kept at a considerable dis tance during the whole of it. The enemy's squadron, eight in number (though consisting of eleven the day before) had made their appearance off Burlington Heights on the 49th, but did not venture to attack our fleet, although - the ward was still in their favotw, and our ousels were ta• -*tine M humentsAL, Ocrouge. •f Upon our litres it is saill that the enemy ate making movements at Odeltown, and upon the upper parts of Chad:nay River, indieative of irruptions into this province. Their fore* is not 'known, but it Is estimated at from 6to 8000 med. They are making considerable ptogress in recruiting on the two or three months' system, at 14 dollars per month, and to serve no longer as militiamen during the war, nor atter the war expires, unless they choose other. wise. gi We understand that Genetal Proctor has eva. coated Detroit and Malden, and beat his retreat for Burlington Heights ; thus are the bard earnings of the illustrious Brock, and the indefatigable exertions oflis successors, all lost, or of no avail. It is said that about 1000 Indians have followed the fate of. Ge. neral Proctor. We shall be happy to hear of their having effected a safe retreat.

The following account appears in The George Town Goteme, 01 tSe 22d September. We know not whe ther the Americans have two sloops of war named Argus, but one Argus, commanded by an Officer of the name of ALLEN, was captured by the PELICAN, in the Channel, on the 19th of August : SEVENTH NAVAL VICTORY. From the Charieston Courier extra, Sandal morning, Sept. to 4 , We have the satisfaction of announcing to the public, that the United States sloop of war Argus, is in the Offing, with the British sloop of war Balsa does, her prize. in company, taken after a desperate engagement of I.§ minutes, and carried by boarding. Captain Allen, of the Argus, has just come up, and we have converged with a Midshipman, who states that, she win taken off Halifax, but it was deemed exigedient to proceed to this place for the purpose of egginging the British blockading squadrons: he also states, that the Captain, R. P. Davies, of the Bar. backlog, was killed, and the vessel was commanded in the fore part of the action by Lieutenant Savage. British loss, 97 killed and wounded. American lon. 12 killed and wounded." _ _ _ lice whole of the above -story we take to be a fa brication, as the coincidence could scarcely occur of two sloops'cl war in the American Navy, of the same name, commanded by an officer of the same name. On a•refeience to Steel's List, we do not find that there is any'such ship as the Barbadoes in our service. A ship of that name, of 24 guns, is now building at Topsham.
