A sloop of and for Providence, from New-York, with flour, &c. was captured on Monday last, outside of Block Island, by a British privateer sloop—all the crew, except one, taken out, a prize-master and three men put on board, and ordered for Halifax. . Soon after, the American sailor left on board per suided the men that it was necessary to caulk in the dead lights and companion, as, having no pumps, should it come on to blow, she must sink. While two of them were employed caulking inside the coin passion, and he outside, and one it the dead light, he sudJenly closed the companion slide on the three, and sccured them below.

MAN OF THE MILITARY COMMITTEE OF THE HOUSE OF THE REPRESiNTATIVES. * 1 In providing a force necessary to hrittg this war to a happy termination, the nature of-the crisis in which 1 we are involved, and the extent of its dangers, claien: l particular attention. If the means ate not fully ade- J 1 quate to the end, discomfiture rout inevitably ensue It is confidently presumed, that it is th e intention of the British Government , by striking at the p rinci p al' sources of our prosperity, to diminish the importance,l if net to destroy, the political existence of the United- , States. . . If any doubt remained on this subject, it has been completely removed by the dispatches from our Mi. nisters at Ghent, which were lately laid before Con gress. A nation contending for its existence against , an enemy powerful by land and sea,- favoured in a peculiar manner by extraordinary events, mum make great exertions and suffer great sacrifices. Forced to, contend again foe our liberties and independence, we arecalled on for a display of all the patriotism which.t distinguished our fellow cititaens in. the first great struggle. It may be fairly'concluded,, that if the United States sacrifice any right, or make any dishonourable concession to the demands of the Bri tish Government, the *spirit-Of' the nation will be broken, and the foundations of their union and inde pendence shaken. The United States must. refits ? quish no right or perish in the struggle—there is no intermediate ground to rest on . A concession on one point leads directly to the into-alder of every other. The result of the contest cannot be doubtful--the highest confidence is entertained that the stronger the pressure, and the greater the d anger,. the more firm and vigorous will be theyesistance, and the more suc : cessful and glorious the result. - • -It is the avowed purpose of the enemy to lay waste and destroy our cities and villages, -and to desolate our coasts, of which examples have already been af forded. It is evidently his intention to press the war along the whole extent of our seaboard, in the hope of cxnausting equally the spirits of the people, and the national resources. - There is also reason to pi esente, that it is his inten tion to press the war from Canada on, the adjoining , States, while attempts are made on the City of New York, and other important points, with a view to the vain project of dismembertnent or subjugation. It - may be inferred likewise to be a part of the scheme to continue to invade this part of the unitm, • while n separate force attacks the State of Louisiana, in the lupe of taking pzCssession of the City of New Or- leans, and of the mouth of the Mississipii, that great inlet and key to the commerce of all that por tion of the United States lying westward of the Alle gliany mountains. The peace in Europe having givenj so the. eiemy a large disposable force, has essentally tavoured these objects. The advantge .which a great navel superiority gives to the Airily, by enabling-him to move tritoM from one quarter to:another.. from Maine ve the bibs; sissippi, a coast of two thousand miles extern,, is very , considerable. Even a, small, force. moved, in this man; net - fOr the purposes.awawed,by.the Wislsh Cow/wan ders. cannot fail to be sensibly felt,!more especially by those who are exposed- to it. 4 4.00:10ps, if am. militia are to be relied. on principally; c 4 the defence of our cities and coasts against their piedasory and desolating incursions, wherever they. maybe made, tl:at by interfering with their ordinary pursuits* of industry, it must be. attended with serious iaterrup lion and loss to th , m, and: injury Ao the public, while it increases the expence. • . - It is an object ul this highest importance to provide a reg ular force, wiili the means of transporting ,it from one quarter to Another along our coast, thereby. 1 .- oisowiliry the movements of the enemy with the 6.eatest possible rapidity, and •repeing the attaik whelevet ,;t may he made. These remarks are equally p tie As to the niisitia service generally u n der the pre sent organization of the Giilltia,an4 the short term of service prescribed by taw. It.. 'is .„ be stated with confidence that at. least three. kt ~ thefolce in mi litia has lie-n empli.y:Al at *our:: neitairiities along' the coast, and on the frontier, * iisarilicni to and returning therice, that • woul4)4vibtign'fiecestary in regular trotr —and tha the ketkpeite attending is has been more than proportionably. 4iniented, trom the difficulty, it not the impossilelity, of preserving the same degree of system in the militii as in the re- gufsr service,, , . . .. 1 But it will not be able 'tti . i4el theliekOitery' and desolating incursions. To bring the Wind itylsonour , able termination, we mutt not be cOnteif *itli . de fending ourselves. Different feelings must be, todthed and apprehensions excited in the Britiall Government, By pushing the war into Canada, we secure ilinitiesOli ship of the Indian tribes, and commana &A' * , viees, otherwise to be turned by the enemy against ne, ~we relieve the coast from the desolation which h intended for it; and we keep in our hand* a safe pledg for an honourable peace. . • a ..- l c, It follows, from this view of the snoneet, that will be necessary to bring into the field, next Cal* paign, not less than 100,0(X) regular troops. Such 4 force, aided in extraordinary emergencies by voluri teers and militia, will place us' above all inquietude as to the final result of this contest. It will fix on a solid and imperishable foundation, our union and ini dependence—on whicb the liberties and happitiets ; . our fellow•citizens so essenti,:ily der, od, It MU' cure to the United States an e.i:lyaiel advantagfo.

' Although the p rincipal border, of the war may thereby betaken front the militia, reliance must be placed on them 'far IMAM-teat ai1!. , ., especially in cases of sudden invasion. For this put. pose it will still be advisable tnit the Men be classca: according to age, and that their term of Service be prolonged. 'Even should this Om be attended wit!, all the advantages expected of it, such an arratge rnent could not fail to produce the happiest effect.— The proof which it. would, afford of the impregnabl , strength of the country,ofthe patient virtue, ai.ti is viecible Spirit of the people, would adraer,i-h tip. enemy, how vain and fruitless his invasions tuna be, and might dispose him to a speedy, jig, at al'h o , hourable peace. Of the very important services already Tendered by' the militia, even under th e pre. 'sent rop,anisation, too 'nisch cannot be said. If the United States make the exertion which it propileds it is probable that the conteit Will soon tit stn an end. It cannot be doubted' that it is in their 4povier to expel the British forces front this Continent, shduld the British Government, by persevering in its :unjust demands, make thatan object with the Ame. rican people.
