THE LAW of CHRIST RESPECTING
CIVIL OBEDIENCE, ESPECIALLY in the PAY-
MENT of TRIBUTE: with an APPENDIX of DOCUMENTS
and NOTES. To which are added, TWO ADDRESSES on
the VOLUNTARY CHURCH QUESTION.

By JOHN BROWN, D.D.,
Minister of the United Associate Congregation, Broughton-place,
Edinburgh ; and Professor of Exegetical Theology to the United

Secessien Church.

Besides an Exposition of Romans xiii. 1-.7, on the principles of
strict exegesis, this work contains discussions on the questions so
important in themselves, and, at the present moment, so peculiarly
interesting, concerning the Nature and Limits of Civil Obedience
—the Duty of Subjection in its two forms, and the Right of Re-
sistance—the Exercise of Civil Power in reference to Religion_
the Limitations of the Law of Tribute as affecting Church Taxes—
the Conduct of the Primitive Christians, and the Duty of Modern
Christians, respecting Taxes for a specific sinful object ; and sug-
gests an easy and certain method for settling the great question be-
tween Churchmen and Dissenters, and bringing to a speedy and
peaceable close, that connection between Church and State, which
is equally replete with injury to the former, and danger to the latter.

BENJAMIN DAWSON'S LOZENGES.
THESE celebrated Lozenges, for the cure of
Coughs, Hoarseness, Sore Throats, and for removing the
tickling sensation which often accompanies Colds, and to mitigate the
vehemence of coughing, still maintain the highest reputation. They are
an elegant and safe composition, and peculiarly pleasant to the taste, and
may be fteely taken by persons of all ages and at all times.
Messrs. Dawson and Watlock request the public to observe, that unless
the name " Benjamin Dawson, Bath,' is engraved on the stamp which
accompanies each Box, the Lozenges are not genuine ; it is the more
necessary to observe this caution, as many persons substitute an article
called Bath Lozenges, which is far inferior in quality to the genuine.

On Saturday morning last the body of a woman was
found quite dead, near Abergavenny. Upon further exa-
mination by Mr. Price, who first discovered the remains,
she was recognised to be an aged woman, named Sarah
Phillips, residing near the Derry. From subsequent state-
ments, it appears the deceased left Abergavenny for her
home on the preceding night, between seven and eight
o'clock, and instead of proceeding along the usual and di-
rect road, she went by the more circuitous one, passing
Llwnddee, where she was compelled to cross a brook which
was much swollen by the late rains, and over which a stone
flag, answering the purpose of a bridge, had lately unfor-
tunately given way. It is supposed, from the body of the
deceased being found under a tree, about ten yards distant
from the water, that, giving up the attempt to cross as hope-
less, she sought shelter from the inclement weather under
the tree, where she perished.—Hereford Times.

LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 10, 1838.

FROM THE SUPPLEMENT TO THE
GAZETTE OF FRIDAY EVENING,

PRICE sd.

us a heavy fire of musketry ; we kept them off, however,
for about half an hour, and finally took up our position in
the Chapel, sweeping the road with a gun which had pre-
viously been captured from them.
After an action of two hours and a half, during which
several brilliant and successful sallies were made by the
volunteers (during one of which I was reluctantly obliged
to fire two barns belonging to Mr. Smith, which afforded
shelter to the enemy's riflemen) the rebels retreated, leav-
ing fifty men dead on the field, and carrying off about as
many wounded.
I have the honour to inclose a return of the force op-
posed to us, by which his Excellency will perceive that we
were opposed by 911 men.
These were under the personal command of Dr. Robert
Nelson, aided by Brigadier Hinderlang, an officer of the
French army. The satisfaction I experience in thus re-
cording an instance of the gallantry of the Loyal Volun-
teers is greatly diminished by the necessity I am under of
reporting the death of Captain M'Allister and five men,
and the present loss of service, by wounds, of Lieutenant
Hiram Odell and eight men.
Finding the great disparity of force between the Loyal-
ists and the rebels I wrote to Captain Grattan, at Isle aux
Noix, asking him if he could consistently with the safety
of the fort, give me any aid. That officer replied by march-
ing in person with a detachment, accompanied by Ensign
Hutton, of the 73d, and Assistant-Surgeon, Dr. Ryan.
This party arrived too late to participate in the action, but
I beg to assure his Excellency that Captain Grattan's ra-
pid march, his forethought in bringing ammunition and
gunners, and the aid I have since received from him enti-
tle him to my warmest thanks. Ensign Hutton, an old
officer, has shewn himself zealous and intelligent ; and Dr.
Ryan's medical services have been very valuable in relieving
the sufferings of the wounded.
I am also glad to record the arrival, as volunteers, of
Captain Vaughan, Lieutenant Johnson, and Captain Rose,
of Caldwell's Manor. The two former, with their men,
reached us just as the enemy were in retreat, and aided us
in their complete discomfiture.
Major Schriver also, with his Hemmingford battalion,
came up shortly after the action ; Captain Alexander
M‘Fee, and Lieutenant Cascadden, Captain Donald
M'Fee, Lieut. Spearman, and Ensign Hayes, Captain
Woolrich, Lieut. Simons, and Lieut. Shields, with their re-
spective companies, accompanied Major Schriver as officers ;
while Captain Edwards, Lieutenant Barratt, and Ensign
Carran, with Mr. Willsie, preferred to shoulder the fire-
lock rather than remain behind. Captain INVAllister, Lieut.
Nesbitt, and Ensign Tourin, participated in the action as
volunteers ; nor can I close this dispatch without mention-
ing that I feel highly indebted to Lieutenant-Colonel Odell,
Major Odell, Captains March, Hays, Wildon, Strikes,
and Stott, and Lieutenant Odell, for their advice, cheerful
co-operation, and ready zeal in the performance of their
various duties.

OFFICIAL DOCUMENT.
Colonial Office, Downing-street, Dec. 8, 1838.
Despatches, of which the following are copies, have been
received from Lieutenant-General Sir John Colborne,
G.C.8., Commander of the Forces in Canada, dated
Montreal, 17th and 18th November, 1838 :
Government House, Montreal, Nov. 17.

My Lord,—ln my despatch of the 11th instant, I men-
tioned the movements and projects of the rebels in.
L'Acadie, La Prairie, and Beauharnois, and the measures
which I had adopted to check and disperse the rebel
force collected at Chateauguay, Beauharnois, and Napier-
ville. I have now the honour to transmit to you the
several reports of the officers who have been employed in
command of the corps acting against the rebels, and to state
that their dispersion has been complete. I had reason to
believe from the information which had been conveyed to
me in regard to the extensive conspiracy that exists in the
United States, in connection with the disaffected of these
provinces, that the brigands enrolled in the States of Ver-
mont and New York were prepared to take advantage of
the movements of the insurgents, to enter Lower Canada
from Champlain and Alberg. I therefore made arrange-
ments the day after the outbreak to assemble a force that
would enable me effectually to protect the province from
the invasion of the brigands of the United States, and put
an end to the outrage of the rebels.
On the 7th and, Bth the troops under the command of
Major-General Sir James Macdonnell and Major-General
Clitherow had passed the St. Lawrence, and were concen-
trated at St. John's and L'Acadie, consisting of the Ist
Dragoon Guards, 7th Hussars, Grenadier Guards, 15th,
24th, 71st, and 73d Regiments, and two batteries of the
Royal Artillery, and on the 9th marched in two columns
towards Napierville, one by St. Valentine, opposite Isle-
aux-Noix, to occupy the road leading from La Colle to the
frontier ; and the other by the direct route of L'Acadie.
The columns entered Napierville nearly at the same time,
and the rebels, who had been attacked and harassed on the
7th and Bth by the volunteers of the La Colle frontier, as-
sembled at Odell Town, endeavoured to join their asso-
ciates posted on the Chateauguay River ; but on hearing of
the operations of the detachment of the 71st Regiment and
the Glengarry Militia at Beauharnois and Chateauguay,
they dispersed, and either returned to their homes or fled to
the frontier. The detichment of the 71st Regiment and
the Glengarry Militia which I had ordered Major Philpotts
to assemble at Coteau du Lac, and to cross to Point Cartier,
in Hungry Bay, passed Lake St. Francis on the 10th,
under the command of Major Carmichael (particular ser-
vice); and after a march of twentry-three miles, drove the
rebels out of Beauharnois before evening, and followed them
towards the Chateauguay River. On the 11th Sir James
Macdonnell proceeded with his corps to St. Edouard's and
to St. Remi, on his receiving information that the rebels
were still in possession of that village.
Major-General Clitherow returned to St. John's, and
passed the Richelieu to Henryville, to check a movement
which the brigands had projected from Alberg. The 66th
Regiment, with a demi battery of artillery, which had been
directed to move from Sorel to St. Hilaire, nine miles from
St. Charles, kept in check the rebels of St. Cesaire, St.
Maria de Manoir, and those from Contra Coeur, and Ver-
cheres, assembled on the left bank of the Richelieu. I re-
turned to Montreal on the 13th, and found from a report
from Major Young (particular service), commanding at
Prescott, in Upper Canada, that the United States bri-
gands had effected a landing two miles below that town ;
I lost no time in ordering a detachment of the 71st Re-
giment, the 93d Regiment, and the Glengarry Volunteers
to cross from Beauharnois to the Cascades, in Vaudreuil,
and to be conveyed from Coteau du Lac to Prescott, and
Colonel Wetherall with a detachment of the Royal Regi-
ment from Montreal.

The greater part of this force, I believe, reached the
neighbourhood of Prescott on the 14th, 15th, and 16th
instant.

These corps, when united, will amount' to about 2,000
men, a force, I have no doubt, quite sufficient to repel any
further attack which may be projected by the brigands on
that distriet of the St. Lawrence.

The companies of the 93d Regiment, which were on
the route to Toronto at the outbreak at Beauharnoii, and
were ordered to pass the Lake St. Francis with the Glen-
garry Militia, were, I hop 9, to be at Prescott on the evening
of the 14th, and will be stationed in Upper Canada.
I have the honour, &c.,

I am also anxious to bring to his Excellency's notice, and
to recommend to protection and reward, Sergeant Beattie,
of the Royal Regiment, who has shown himself a gallant
good soldier under very trying circumstances.

P.S. I enclose herewith some important documents taken

Beauharnois, Nov. 10, Ten P.M.
Sir—l have the honour to acquaint you, for the informa-
tion of his Excellency the Commander of the Forces, that,
in conjunction with Colonel Philpotts, a detachment of one
officer of engineers, twenty-two sappers and miners, one
captain, three subalterns, four sergeants, two buglers, and
one hundred and twenty-one rank and file, 71st Regiment
with upwards of one thousand Glengarry men were
landed at Hungry Bay this morning, marched, and took
Beauharnois, rescued all the prisoners with the exception
of Messrs. Ellice, Brown, Norman, Ross, Norval, Bryson,
Houndslow, and Surveyor, supposed to be at Chateauguay,
with the loss of one man killed, and three wounded, of the
71st Regiment.
The men are much fatigued, and we wait here for orders.

La Colle Frontier, Odell Town, Nov. 7.

Sir—Colonel Carmichael having marched yesterday to
St. Martine with the Ist and 2tl Regiments Glengarry
Highlanders, it becomes my duty to send to you the en-
closed return of the men mounded in our attack on this
place on the night of Saturday last, the 10th inst. I re-
gret excedingly to have occasion to inform you that I
have found it impossible to prevent the destruction of the
greater part of this village by fire.
The whole of the troops were under arms for this pur-
pose until half-past three o'clock on Sunday morning, al-
thnugh they had been so much fatigued and harrassed by
the exertions of the preceding day ; but they had no means
Qf extinguishing the flames, which I am sorry to say have
extended to the houses of many Loyalists.
This part of the country seems to be now tolerably
quiet ; the volunteers are daily bringing in many prisoners ;
some of whom appear to have been ringleaders, and very
active in the late rebellion. I have assembled a Court of
Inquiry for the purpose of investigating the conduct of
each individual, in order that those only whose conduct ap-
pears to have been decidedly bad, may be sent down to
Montreal. The proceedings of this Court shall be sent to
you, with the prisoners in a few days.—l have the honour
to be, &c.

Sir-1 have the honour to acquaint you, for the infor-
mation
of his Excellency Sir John Colborne, of the events
on this frontier, although the communication should pro-
perly come through Lieut.-Col. Odell.
Yesterday forenoon our piquet was attacked at La Colle
steam grist-mill by a party of horse and foot rebels, when
four of the mounted were either killed or wounded, as they
were seen to fall from their horses, at the same time the pic-
quet was compelled to give way. It was reported that a
large body of rebels were coming on the west road of La
Colle to co-operate with the force which had already come i
in, and under our view, it was thought proper to take up a
new position for the night, which we did to save us from
being surrounded. In the mean time I suggested the pro-
priety of requesting Major Schriver to advance with
all his disposable force to render us assistance to dislodge
the enemy, who had posted themselves on the lines on the
east road, leading from Mr. Screen's tavern, number said to
be between four and five hundred. Major Schriver joined
us with his forces about ten o'clock, and after forming a
Alin
of attack we advanced, in the first instance despatch-
ing
Captain Fisher with his company to the north to cut
off the retreat. Captain Weldon's company to flank the
left, the La Colle frontier company to make the attack on
the right, supported by Captain , Major Schriver,
with his battalion to carry the centre. I have the pleasure
to state the whole advanced in good order and fine spirits,
although they were aware the enemy had at least one field
piece. The attack

when fron-

minutes the enemy ran in every direction, the greatest
number crossing the lines, leaving behind them one six-
pounder, a large number of American muskets, cannon
shot, both round and grape, one keg of powder, as well as
a quantity of ball cartridge, and a great number of pikes,
leaving eleven dead on the field, and seven prisoners ; and
it is gratifying to be able to state, that every officer, and
non-commissioned officer, and private volunteer, have done
their duty.

I fear they cannot stand out much longer unless the mili-

Odell Town, Nov. 9, 1838.

Sir,l have the honour to report to you, for the infor-
mation of his Excellency, the Commander of the Forces,
the result of an affair with the rebels which has just termi-
nated, and which reflects high honour upon the Loyal Vo-
lunteers of this district.
At half-past ten A.M., I received from my advanced
guard a report that the rebels were approaching in great
force from La Colle and Napierville. The whole force
under my command amounted to 200 men only, and we
were very short, of ammunition. I directed, therefore,
that a concentration should take place at Odell Town
Chapel, a stone building, which I considered tenable as a
military post.
The enemy came on us with rapidity, and opened upon

(Co.)
St. Edward's (or St.py George), Nov. 11, 1838.
Sir,—l have the honour to report my arrival at this
place. By all accounts the rebels have completely dis-
persed. Soon after leaving Douglas's Corner we came to
the houses of two notorious rebels of the name of Boyer,
who were engaged in the revolt of last winter. I caused
their houses to be burned, and at La Grande Freacer, I
also had the house of a notorious rebel of the name of
Bell, a blacksmith, and who manufactured pikes for the in-
surgents, to be destroyed by fire, on our march. And at
this place I have made prisoners of several leaders of minor
note, whose houses I shall also cause to be destroyed on
my moving off. I have received intelligence that the re-
bels who left Chateauguay yesterday morning, with their
prisoners, twelve in number, dispersed at Pigeoniere last
evening, distant about two miles from St. Edward's, setting
the prisoners at liberty, amongst whom were Mr. Ellice,
Col. Clive, and Mr. Brown, who immediately proceeded to
La Prairie.

I shall send this evening for intelligence ; I shall be
guided by what I learn, either in making a move, or halt-
ing here till I receive your further instructions.
I have the honour to be, &c.

Chambly, Nov. 15, 1838.
Sir—l have the honour to acquaint you, that on my ar-
rival here yesterday evening I learned that the camp in the
Boucherville Mountain had broken up, and that Miotte had
crossed over at the ferry to Point Olivier. I also heard of
some threatened disturbances at St. Mary's, on the oppo-
site side of the river. I ordered an officer and thirty men
of the 15th, accompanied by some loyal persons acquainted
with the inhabitants, to leave this at five o'clock this morn-
ing, and go there to search for arms, not without hopes of
taking Miotte. Some arms were taken, and two leading
agitators brought in, who remain for examination to-mor-
row. I also learnt from the Cure of this place, who has
been most praiseworthy in his exertions to restrain his flock
from participating in the rebellion, and in bringing to jus-
tice the agitators, and those who coerced the peaceably
disposed, that he had learned that three guns and a consi-
derable quantity of arms and ammunition were in the mill,
near the lake in the centre of the Bourcherville Montain.
That he had sent a young ecclesiastic, of the name of Le
Zeore, to recommend to his parishioners, for their own in-
terest, the voluntary surrender of all those warlike stores
immediately to him, to be by him delivered to me, and
hourly expected them.
As they did not arrive last night, I patrolled to the
mountain this morning with twenty dragoons, and onar:
ar-
riving at the wood, about eleven o'clock, met Major Jo hn
ston, with the 66th and two guns, proceeding to make the
seizure. After making some visits for arms, and sending
a
nd
home the patrol, I joined Maj
or Johnston at the
mill,
found him in possession of three guns, ten or a dozen casks
of powder, some thirty muskets, and a great many pikes,

-OP •

also a good deal of ammunition made up, particularly- artil-
lery cartridges, with bags containing some dozen of musket
balls attached to each.

Major Johnston was to return to Belceil for the night
with his capture, the particulars of which he will no doubt
himself detail, but I write this as I have a more direct
means of communication.—l have the honour to be, &c.-

Prescott, Nov. 12, 1838.

Sir—l have to acquaint you, for the information of his
Excellency the Commander of the Forces, that the Patriots
effected a landing at the Windmill Point, two miles from this
on the road to Cornwall, at ten o'clock this morning ; at
four, when perfectly dark, they attempted to run two' large
schooners alongside the wharf in the town, but the small ' •-rar-
rison being on the alert, in expectatimi of an attack front
some quarter, their object was defeated, and they got into the'
American waters, where they anchored, and at nine, assisted
by the States steamer, United States, which, as well as the
Paul Pry ferry-boat between this and Ogdensburgh, the
rebels took possession of last night, they disembarked a
body of them, with three guns, without the possibility of
preventing it, as had we moved in that direction in suffi-
cient force, the town and block-house must have been left
nearly defenceless, and would, in all probability, have fallen
into the hands of the enemy. They still retain possession,
and. until joined by a reinforcement of troops, I fear we
shall &lot be able to dislodge them.

The Exi;frinwrit, Government steamer, arrived at five
o'clock, and exchanged several shots with the steamer, one
of which struck her, a2d she is now near Ogdensburgh at
anchor. She also attacked one of the schooners, but with-
out effect, as she immediately took refuge in the United
States waters. I shall immediately forward an application
to Kingston for assistance.
The Experiment still remains ready to renew the attack
whenever she has an opportunity.
I have the honour to be, &c.,

Particular Service.

I expect to be able to write more fully to-morrow. They
arc computed at eight hundred, four hundred of which we
suppose to be landed.

Head-quarters, Montreal, Nov. 17, 1838.

My Lord—l have the honour to transmit to you the ac-
companying letter from Major Young (particular service),
commanding at Prescott, Upper Canada, in which he reports
that he attacked the United States pirates on the 14th
inst.. with the Upper Canada Militia under his command,
and a detachment of the 83d Regiment and Royal Marines,
and drove them from the position which they occupied after
effecting their landing two miles below Prescott.
Your Lordship will hear with the greatest satisfaction
of the gallant conduct of the Upper Canada Militia and
Volunteers, and the determined spirit displayed by them in
this affair.

I beg to draw your Lordship's attention to the able con-
duct of Major Young in his arrangements to repel the in-
vasion of the pirates. He is an old and meritorious officer,
and has been for some months actively employed on the St.
Lawrence frontier, in command of the force stationed at
Brockville and Prescott.

I regret to add that our loss in repelling the incursion of
the pirates has been severe, and your Lordship may be as-
sured, that if these disgraceful proceedings on the 'Ameri-
can frontier cannot be guarded against by the American
Government, it will soon become impossible to prevent acts
of retaliation on the part of the population of Upper Canada.
I have, &c.

Prescott, Nov. 14, 1638.

Sir—With reference to my letter of the 12th instant, I
beg to report, for the information of his Excellency the
Commander of the Forces, that Captain Sandom, com-
manding the Royal Navy in Upper Canada, having arrived
from Kingston at two o'clock yesterday morning, in the
armed steamer Victoria, accompanied by the Coburg, a
combined attack upon the enemy's position, near Johns-
town, was decided upon. I accordingly moved off, in two
columns, at a quarter before seven A.M. The left destined
to turn the enemy's right, was led by Colonel D. Fraser,
and was composed of thirty men of the Royal Marines,
Captain George Macdonell's company of L. G. Highlanders,
Captains Jones and Fraser's companies of 2d Grenville
Militia, and one hundred men of Colonel Martle's regiment
of Stormont Militia. The right column was led by Lieut.-
Colonel Gowan, of the Queen's Borderers, and was com-
posed of forty four men of the 83d Regiment, 150 or the
Queen's Borderers, and 100 of Colonel Martle's regi-
ment. The enemy was strongly posted behind stone
walls, on rising ground ; but the intrepidity of the troops
overcame those obstac!es, and in an hour they were dri-
ven into a windmill and stone house adjacent. The for-
mer is particularly strong ; and finding, after a con-
stant fire of some hours from the armed steam-boats and
musketry, that no impression could be made on the build-
ing, 1 considered it more prudent to draw of the greater
part of the troops at three p.m., leaving strong picquets to
prevent the escape of those in the buildings, until the as-
sistance of heavy guns could be procured. In this affair
the officers and men of the regular troops, as well as those
of the militia, evinced the characteristic firmness of
British soldiers. The rifle fire of the enemy was particu-
larly true and steady.

I have not yet received the returns of killed and wounded,
but I regret to say the loss was severe. Lieutenant Johu-
son, of the 83d Regiment, a most gallant officer, was
killed, and Lieutenant Parker, of the Royal Marines, a
young officer of great promise, was shot through the arm.
Lieutenant Dalmage, of the Ist Grenville Regiment, was
killed with the advance of the left column, and Lieutenant
Parlon, of the 2d Dundas, and Ensign Macdonell, of the
Loyal Glengarry Highlanders, were wounded also in the
advance. The killed and wounded of all ranks are com-
puted at forty-five, few of the former are, however, in the
number, and many of the latter are not in danger, The
loss of the enemy, especially in officers of note was great.
Generals Brown and Phillips were killed, and thirty-two
prisoners were taken.
It is most gratifying to me to have it in my power to
report the zeal with which the miiitia of the district ral-
lied on the first sound of the invasion round the standard
of their country, as well as their perseverance in the duties
required of them.
I feel most indebted to Captain Sandom, R.N., for his
zealous and efficient co-operation. On Monday Lieut.
Fowler, in charge of the armed steam boat Experiment,
particularly distinguished himself by his exertions to de-
stroy, in front of this town, a large seam vessel and two
schooners in possession of the patriots.--4 have, &c.

Head-quarters, Montreal, Nov. 18, 1838.
MY LORD—I have the honour to report to you that,
through the activity and exertions of Lieut.-Colonel Dun-
das, 83d Regiment, commanding at Kingston, the brigands,
from the United States, who effected a landing near Pres-
cott, surrendered on the 17th inst. The report of Lieut.-
Col. Dundas is annexed.

I am persuaded that, although Upper Canada may be
constantly exposed to similar aggressions, the efforts of the
vicious population of the United States to disturb that
province will end in the destruction of the brigands who
venture to invade it, and whom it is evident the Americans
cannot restrain.

Your Lordship will hear, with great satisfaction, that
5,000 of the Upper Canada Militia had assembled at
Prescott, to repel the invaders before they surrendered.
I have the honour to be, &c., J. COLBORNE.

Pre(sCcootpty, Upper Canada, Nov. 16.
Sir—l have the honour to acquaint you, for the informa-
tion of his Excellency the Commander of the Forces, that I
came down here yesterday from Kingston, with four com-
panies of the 83d Regiment, two eighteen-pounders, and a
howitzer, and moved up from the town to a position about
four hundred yards from the windmill, and adjoining houses
occupied by the brigands. They did not move or come
out of the houses to oppose my advance. The eighteen-
pounders opened with a good effect upon the stone buildings
near the mill. Captain Sandom, with two gun-boats in
which be carried two eighteen-pounders, took up a position
below the windmill, which he cannonaded, but not with
much effect. After cannonading these buildings for an
hour or rather more, observing the brigands to be quitting
them and endeavouring to escape, I ordered the troops to
advance ; very little resistance was offered by the party
occupying the windmill, but a smart fire was opposed to us
from the adjoining stone buildings.
It being dark before the troops got round the buildings,
and the brigands in the windmill having displayed a white
flag, they were summoned to surrender themselves, uncon.
ditionally, which they did. Eighty-six prisoners were im-
mediately secured, and sixteen others, who were wounded,
were removed from the mill as conveyance could be found.
A large supply of arms, twenty-six kegs of powder, and
three pieces of ordnance, fell into our hands. Some of
the brigands effected their escape from the building,
when the darkness came on, and hid themselves in the
brushwood on the bank, under the mill. I directed the
militia to scour the bank, and several prisoners were thus
secured, among others a Pole, calling himself General Van
Sault, who it was understood, was the principal leader.
All the buildings adjoining the mill are destroyed, but the
latter I directed to be occupied by a company of militia,
and propose that it should continue to be so, or entirely de-
molished. I am happy to say this service was performed

'with the loss of one man only, of the 83d Regiment.—l have
the honour to be, &c.
