UNIICANTILE NOUS( IN GLAsGi.W, DAM) AUG. 1.

44 General Brown is reheating, and burning and
destroying on his way. Queenston and St. David's
are both burnt ; but we hope the enemy will soon
dearly pay for their conduct. Heavy artillery have
crossed frem Montreal, and the expedition from our
side must soon move. Unfavourable winds have
.continued for five or six weeks past, and a change is
mush desired, 'that the troors in the river may get
up. Only part of General Powers's division has yet
reached us ; and this day the Sd, urder Generals
Kempt ind Robinson. with 43 sail, under convoy of
his Majesty's ship Ycrk, from Bourdeaux, are an-
nounced per telegraph. The Wasspite and Ajax are
.within 45 miles cf Quebec. These- reinforcements
will not be very pleasing to Jonathan, who, from the
papers we forward by this vessel, you will see now
begins to think that John Bull is in earnest."

DOWNING-STRUT, SEPTEMBER *O, ism

" Captain havotss, Aide-de•Camp to Lieutenant-
General Driustmotio, arrived this morning at Lord
BATHURST'S Office, with Dispatches from Sir Gsnarinc
PazvosT, containing the details of an action between
[the division of hie Majesty's forces under Lieutenant-
General DRUSIMOND, and the American army, com-
manded by General &tows.

•" The American force attacked General Demi-
MOND'S advance, on the 25th July, with upwards of
6000 men.

•1 The British for the first three hours did not
exceed 1600 men, and were increased during the
action to not more than 2200 of every description.
44 The Enemy were repelled in all their attempts,
which were renewed with great obstinacy, and Isere
'at length compelled to retreat with the loss of 1300
men. They were pursued by Gsineral DItUltilOND
to Fort Erie, to which position they had withdrawn.
•, The British loss was $4 killed. and 794 wounded
and missing."

A Dutch Mail arrived this morning with the fol-
lowing intelligence:

COPENHAGEN, SEPTEMBER I.
Several ships have arrived here direct from Nor-
way. One of them brought the Norwegian Cham-
berlain. Colonel Broiker, and Professor Sverdrup,
President of the last Assembly. who had a great in-
fluence on Prince Christian and the Norwegian na-
don. and on several occasions made violent speeches.
Colonel Broiker is especially charged with the re-
storation of the communication between Denmark
and Norway.

Prince Christian Frederick is expected back imme-
diately. He has been for some time indisposed and
low spirited, seeing himself deserted on every side.
After the last convention, he was so weak that he
was obliged to be carried on board the ship.
The Norwegian Diet will the less hesitate to pro.
claim the Union of Norway with Sweden, as almost
the whole Norwegian army has separated, and is en-
tirely disbanded. The whole business, therefore, of
this Diet will consist merely in bringing before the
public, in a proper farm, the orders which the Swedish
Government shall suggest.
With respect to the circumstances which preceded
She conclusion of the Convention of Moss, the follow.
Ing May be added :—The Commander of Frederick-
etadt, General Ohme, had declared he would defend
himself to the last extremity, and he made a most de.
termined resistance.
Colonel Kuds had also assembled about 10,000
peasants near Kongswinger, to attack the Swedes in
the rear ; but all these efforts were in vain. When
I the Norwegian merchants saw there was no hop of '
assistance from England, they retired. Lieutenant- ,
Colonel Hall, Commandant of Frederkkstadt, was
a traitor, for he gave up the fortress without firing all
shot. Colonel Stadell and General Staffeld behaved
so ill that they were cashiered. General Haxthausen
suffered the army to be three days without provisktas,
so that it is said, in the report of General Ahren6eld,
the troops were exhausted,, and suffered every kind
pi privation. Finally, an opposition party expressed
their sentiments openly. All this together so affected
Prince Christian that he signed the Convention.

BRUSSELS, SEPTEMBER 14.
Letters from Ghent say, that, since the arrival of
an English Courier, the Commissioners hive inter-
changed some notes.
This correspondence excites a hope that the nego-
ciations by means of correspondence will be renewed.
However that may be, it appears that the English
and American Ministers will remain at Ghent the
greatest part of the winter.
Our countryman, General Evers, is appointed
Lieutenant-General and Inspector bf the Belgian Ca
valry, which is to be increased by a new regiment of-
Hussars. This General will immediately enter on
his office. (It is, perhaps, worth observing that Ge-
neral Evers was considered as one of the best Gene.
rals of cavalry in the French service.)
,The motions
of the troops stationed in Belgium are not yet ended,
besides fresh troop. continue to arrive daily. The
Hanoverian' march for the most part to Ghent—the

as the Plague continues its ravages at Seouichi,

A respectable Paper of the south of Germany ban
