The most important arrival this morning is front the United States,
by the Sirius steamer, bringing the welcome intelligence of the total
defeat of the rebels at Short Hills, with the capture of their:ringleaders.

edition of a morning journal, published this morning, of the battle.
Extract of the proclamation published by his Excellency Sir George
Arthur, Upper Canada, Toronto, 22d June :
Whereas, on the morning of the 21st of this month of June, a large
body of armed men assembled in the township of Pelham in the Niagara
district, attacked and plundered a house in the neighbourhood, of a
large sum of money and other property, and fired upon and overpowered
a small detachment of embodied militia, there stationed ; and whereas,
it is necessary for the peace and security of the district of Niagara,
that the ingress and egress of evil.minded persons should be restrained
and prevented,
I do hereby strictly order and command all officers, magistrates, and
others whom it may concern, that no persons be permitted to land upon
or leave the shore, on the British side of Niagara River, coming or
going to the United States territory, unless he shall give a full account
of himself, and showing that he is coming or going in the prosecution of
his lawful affairs and business, which persln should be furnished with a
passport to secure him from hindrance or molestation.
