AMER I CA. ~. By tilt. New York Papers •we learn, that a gen tle!zoir, who had ar ve.d. at that city. On the 2:ttli o , ,'tobcr, front the Northward, hadcommimicated a iiiece cif hitellieence which excited a considera ble sensation. It purported, that a - party had ar tived,ont front England to take a particular sur v,e o f the Canadian Lakes, consisting of Captains l'YConner and o,'e", of the British NaVy, three Secretaries, several Lieutenants, Midshipmen, BittitsWain, &c. and who only a few days be fore were on board the Wolf frigate, on Lake ) 1 .1,f 1/0 1 .19(1 to the upper part of the Lake it h their sto-veying instruments—That Oeneral l'•lttrrav (as'is stated a Wellington General) was tit hank 10.090 troops under his orders, to be sent from England in addi;ion to those already in Ca 'nada—That the Crown lands had been given to a nninher or ScOich ~erne atvirom had al 1-catty arrived at Montreal from SeOtlatid. This olorinist further stated, tinit the British - were 0 4 0n t to build a strong fortific , itinit on the Isle -o'..ix-Noix. at the li,wer end of Lake Chain aod had e ngaged several ships fort he purpose of conveying stone as soon as the Lake should opvn in :the Spring. Another acco unt states,, that a quantity of heavy ordnance had re cently arrived at the liland, and that. GO pieces of beavY cannon had been brought tip the river St. j or ,. rin ce. Eight British regiments were expect ed in the province. Tice American papers say, they do not mean to insinuate that these prepara tions are carried on with 110561,e int co tions , but that Government ought to keep an eye upon the. anovements of the British. Thits . the ininds• of the 'New York Citizens are filled with u nfounded apprehensions -of.a fortigmenemy: Ad vices were yesterday received from New York to ihe date of the 9th tilt.

Isaac 'Mendoza, the prosecutor, stated, drat he went, out with his wife about 7 o'clock. on the night in question, after locking his .doori and fastening: the wineows ; and on' his .return.ahout two o'clock then next morning, : found that the back of. thw house had been entered, and the - arti cles described in the indictment stolen from his draw ens.• Priscilla Mendoza. deposed_ to a similar effect, adding that' one of the notes which she called her own -was concealed in a glove, and that she bad received it from a person who put . - . a noon it, as she believed, in Hebrew characters. Two police officers ‘acre then called, who swore that the prisoners were seen near • the premises at 12 o'clock op the night of the robbery, and on being asked where they were going, replied—" .. to . 'get something to drink;" when they were admo nished to go home. 'Purden . was subsequently ap prehended, atnil on being "searched, a ,silk hand kerchief was found in his hat, with a one pound note wrapped up in it. iscilla Mendoza, on looking at the note, he. lieved it to be the note inserted by her in a glove, and deposited in the drawers. The prisoner. Paden in his defence, declared, that he received the, note trom a Jew, whom he did not •know, - at Petticoat-lane fair, and Gould Called several witnesses, who gave him an excel lent character. Mr.,Baron \Voon, in his address to the Jury, observed, that the only circumstance against Gonld was, that he was seen in rurden's company, near the premises, on the night of the robbery. The Jury would determine whether that circumstance, combined with the manner in which the note was found upon him, proved the criminality of the other prisoner.—Verdict—Not Guilty. Philip Wood, Charles Slight, Edioard Surgey, three,boys, were indicted ior btaglarionsly enter-. in; the house of Mr. \Villingham, a hackney-coach master, and 'stealing three trusses of hay ; and Edward Bureau, for feloniously receiving the same, knowing it to have been stolen. The evidence in this case was long and unin teresting, and the trial coneltided by, the Jury finding Surgey and Bureau not guiley,. acid and Wood guilty of stealing only,. IRE LAN D. MURDER OF MR. BAKER. ADSOURNED SPECIAL SESSIONS UNDER TUE fNSt.7lt- I(ECTIoN ACT, HOLDEN AT CLoNMEL, NOV. 29. At the opening of the Special Sessions, Mr. Jephsou addressed his brethren, in . order to draw their attention to a recent melancholy event. He said, that in calling their attention to a late de plorable occurrence, he should be more embarras •sed, were he not convinced that every Magistrate, nay, every man who heard him, participated with hiin in feelings of the deepest regret and horror, at the atrocious murder of the late Mr. Baker, Of . Lisutacue—ot horror, that this Country should be disgraced by an assassinating banditti—of the deepest regret, that he should be a victim of their . cruel vengeance—a Man of the most amiable cha racter—a kind and indulgent Landlord—of gentle , manly manners—the str:ctest integrity and lock pendence2-=nniting every quality that distinguishes the .real .gentlettiati-e-a Magistrate, to whom the oppressed fled for sheiter=-Irem whom the ruffian . fled .that tran3gresSed 'the laws, and feared their justice. • Mr. Jephson proceeded to state, that, it was, ire might say, in the active discharge of his Ma gisterial duty that Mr. Baker's life was sacrificed; am! that as the circumstauces under which he was ..cut off, called loudly for some measures, die did not at present offer to suggest what ,these mea sures should be—but .tlie first Mt. eting after the me!aucholy event, was the most proper place to urge their necessity, and he could riot suffer the occasion to elapse. The time required prompt and decided resistance against a system, ‘vbielt had . manifestly for its object to beat down the law, and take off;trianby man, every Magistrate, who was honest and spirited enough to come for ward in its support. The two Bills (tire Peace Preservation Bill, anti the Insurrection Act,) ! I Which bad already been tried, had not produced "'the effect of quelling this confederacy against the and bringing.ia the arms, notwithstanding the Government hail lent all its energy to their enforcement, and all the better descriptions a men:in the country, clergy of all sects, and gentry, , by exertion and adyice, had lent their co-opera tipu. This state of society, said he, cannot long subsist ; end therefore, beseech you to take the speediest moment of entering into calm and firm • deliberation as to the measures by which this sys tem is to be pet down. • ..Serjeant Moore said, that, strongly as his per sonal feelings must" sympathize in the common re gret, and participate in the common horror a the savage atrocity alluded to, his judicial situation precluded him 'from interfering in their delibera tions en this subject. Earl Donouglimore felt, that on, the subject of Mr. Baker's abatninable miirder, it was not ne cessary to say a single word in ()Mer to excite sor row or indignatiori,; the difficulty is for any man to suppress his feelings for this shocking cutting off of such a Man as Mr. Baker, than whom there was not a more valuable or More respected indi vidual. The heiror of it is above any etiort• of aggravation undoubtedly at the occurrence of so heavy a calamity as this, it is not possible to overtook the necessity there is of adopting such measures as may prevent a future recurrence of any thing like it, if speti "measures can possibly be devised. In this sentimeet, which would Da turally suggest itself to every active mind, he ter one sheulit be happy if he could, point out 'any adequate measure of cure or prevention. • That was an tiebePpy,'sitteat* which_ certainly did not appear to be et all amended by the application'of new and nettled laws 'of great power ,and in full operation, and in which calamities like that whiCii w.e, now deplore, are not to be prevented by these strong measured.

'.l.'hat , every exertion which could fairly be made on the "part• of the.Govemnient, seemed to be fairly and fully tried, and that the selection of those persons, civil and titilitarY,. by whom these laws were to be carried into effect, was such as perfectly to ,satiqy the public feeling.". • kle, was sorry, sin cerely sorry, for theoceasion tinder which he was called upon to make these observations, but not sorry, to do justice to this selection., His • ship concurred in the necessity of not suffering this horrid outrage to pass over in 'silence,; and the. whole Bench felt so strongly ,the obligation upon them,- of;taking the fullest sense of the Ma gistracy as to the conduct to be pursued, did, in consequence,,,at the rising a the - court on Thurs day, make it part of the ,order of adjournment, that, the Clerk of the Peace shall summon, null vitinelly, every Gentleman holding. the Commis sion -of the Peace,. and living within any or the distorbed..Baronies,. tcemeet at.
