We have received Quebec Papers of the end of
June, which enable us to fill up the intelligence
from America. Every day fresh,arrivals at Quebec
augment the strength Of the British force in Ca-
nada by the accession of men, ordnance, stores,
provisions; and all the munition and sinews of
'war. It will be recollected that an American
force from Detroit had been sent out- (as was sup-
posed) against Michilimackinac, and we are glad
to find that Lieut.-Col. MACDOWAtL has got the-
start of it •(which was doubtful), and reinforced
. that important place on'the 18th May, so as to
defy any attempts on the part of the enemy.
We see no confirmation of the reports so indus-
triously circulated bythe Chronicle, that Sir JAMES
ATEO had become paralytic, and was blockaded in
Kingston. On the contrary, our squadron, on-
the 14th June, is represented as taking in stores,
&Q. to proceed. to Niagara, and the latest intel7:
ligence received (23d June) states, that it had
actually sailed.

The 90th Regiment has proceeded from Que.-

We have received French Papers.of the 2d and
3d, from which we .have extracted the principal
contents, though the lateness of the hour at which
they arrived, and the great length of the articles on
the most important stshjects, viz. the ljberty_of the
Press, and the Civil List, preclude us from doing
more than merely glancing at these topics. We
must refer our readers to our preceding columns,
for we "have neither time nor space for comments.

An important arrival from Holland will be
fauud in a preceding column. Belgium, it ap-
pears, is definitively united to that.country, and,
it is said, that the boundary of the Rhine will be
given to this augmented kingdom. From Vienna
we learn, that the Congress will meet wiih no
impediment in its formation—we look for none of
any magnitude, to its happy conclusion. Prus-
sian troops, it is reported, have occupied the
greater part of Saxony.

val of the Fleet from the East—:(See our Naval
News.)
