BAL-rutonE, JULY 2,1.-7 An express arrived, in
this•city this morning to Gen. Winder, announc-
ing that the British have landed about 300 men.,
and taken Leonardstown?L--Leonardstown is a

A report is also in circulation, which is :said to
be well founded, that the en,entr have burnt the
Court-house and jail, in Calvert County. Apprc-

Ilm_trAx, AUG. 1.-Yesterday his Majesty's.
ship Er;te, the lion. Captain Z,:apier, arrived from
Bonrdeaux; in 42 (lays ; sailed front the Garonne
the 16th ..Lune, in company with hiS Majesty's
ships York and Vengeur, and 43 sail of trans-:
ports, botind. to Quebec, having on board be:
•tween 6000 and 7000 troops, under the command
of .General Kempt—parted from them on Sunday,
"the-24th ult.: at the entrance of the St, Lawrence.

BosToN, 3u LY 30.—We have 'published front
the New York Evening Post, an article relative' to
the plan of the campaign, which scents to have
.come from a very intelligent source. -Whether the
writer has any secret information of the scheme of
operations determined upon, is of little conse-
quence. Itis.very certain, that any serious in-
vasion in the direction of Montreal, if intended,
cannot be „accomplished. The British regular
troops in Canada will' out-number our 'whole
army, probably in the ratio of three to two.
Whether• the enemy, with their decidedly -supe-
rior force, in number as well as in discipline, will
invade our territory, we know. not, although it is
probable they will. The number of troops which
they have already opposed to General Izard, and
their haviwg opened the road ‘chich was blocked
up with so much care v.v° years ago, reader it
'probable that they :;o not inten.l to be idle. .But
there can be no expectation that the right wing
of our army will davanee. All the.eottquests,
therefore, are to be gained.tia the left. Tins part
of the army, under the .command of General
Bro:vn, it is pretty well settled, when augmented
by the reinforcements which are now on the way
to it, will amount to about 5000 men.
General Brotvn had advanced on the 10th inst.
to Queenston.

We understand, by a Gentleman from Burling-
ton, qtat Colonel Clark has been arrested tor dis-
obedience of orders. Our army continues on the.
frontiers, with its advanced posts. at Odeltown.—
The British. continua before them.
Accounts from Detroit, of the 6th ult. affirm,
that the whole of the American force stationed
there, including Sandwich and.Amherstburg, does
nut exceed 600 men. \Ve hope they will not be
suffered, for any length of time, to disgrace and
'DoId in awe a valuable frontier of 500 miles extent.
None of the enemy's vessels had passed into Lake
Huron.
