Copy v'f a Letter from Commodorli Stria:lira Lucat Yro to John
Wil%on Crolcer, Esti. dated his Majesty's ship Prince R(gint,
Kingstots,ystil At sosti 1814.

. .
St u= l have the. honour to transmit, for their Lord.
ships' informatiln, a copy of a letter I have received
fr'nn Captain Dobbs, of his Majesty's sloop Star, em.
pitied in co-operating with the right division of the
army, detailing the particulars or* very gallant and
successful attack made on two of the enemy's men of
•war ',choosers, moored under the guns of Fort Etie,
by a party of seamen and marines under that officer,
which appears to have been conducted with great skill
and jistigment on the part of Captain Dobbs, and
executed with ditainguisiteki gallantry by all employed.
I lament to say, the service has lost a very zealous
and valuable Officer in Captain Radcliffe, who was
killed in the act of boarding.
I have the honour to enclose a list of killed and
wounded. (Signed) JAMES LUCAS Yro,
Commodore, and Commander in Chief.

Niagara River, near Fort Erie, schooner Soaers, Aug. 13.
Stet—Hiving succeeded in getting my gig and five
batteaux across from the Niagara River to Lake Erie,
a distance of eight miles, by land, I last night at-
tacked the three enemy's schooners that had anchored
close to Fort Erie for the purpose of flanking the ap-
proaches to that fort. Two of them were carried
sword in hand in a few minutes, and the third would
certainly have fallen, had the cables not been cut,
which made us drift to leeward of her among the
rapids.
The schooners taken are the Ohio and Somers,
eammanded by Lieutenants, and mounting three
long twelve-pounders, with a complement i.t 35 men
each. My g allant friend, Lieutenant Radcliffe, and
one seaman, tell in the act of boarding, which, with
four wounded, is our loss. The enemy had one man
killed and seven wounded; among the later is Lieu-
tenant Conklin, commanding the squadron, as well
as two of his officers. The steady anci gallant con-
duct of the officers, seamen and marine:, employed.
on this service, was such as to have insurvd me sue-
oe►s against a greater force, and has cal.ed forth
very hamisome General Order from ins Honour

We, WILLIAII, by Cie grace of Goa, Prt\lce of
Orange Nassau, Prince Sovereign of the Units*
Netherlands. On the report of our Commissioner,
General of Justice, considering that in conseqUence
of the revolutionary principles which the union of
Belgium to France has caused to be propagated there,
and in contempt of the divine ecclesiastical and civil
laws, the observation of Sundo and hOlidS7ll i*Rot
sleeted in a very striking manner.
Considering that it is of ennsequenee tor' .tas for
establishment of morality and public order, 'that dif
Ancient local regulations which in genera areorifed
in this particular with the laws of the other Mat.l. or
Christeitdom, be rigorously enforced ; and desiring. to
esteblish in this respect uniform rules for all Belgiomp
we have decreed and decree as follows t
" Art. I. It is strictly forbid•len to do any kind of labour elth-c
in the cities, towns, villages, streets, quays, puhtle places, mitt
the fields, on Sundays and the Festivals consecrated by the_

it Is requisite to be furnished with a written permission bum Pof
Mayor, which must be immediately anode known to the Cler-
gyman.

" 5. Fite Mayors, Cumnsissarie., sod Agents of the Police
'shall take care to hinder all kinds of noise and tumult in he

" 6. No pui'Utt amusement eliall take place during divine see-
vice in the parish, as stated .n Article 4 ; and the Polke shall
take measures to hinder any tb a ; from passing mcomsletest with

Another Decree observes, that since the union with
France the Flemish Language has Iseen Almn.t en-
tirely suppressed, the French alone being admitte.l to
the public acts; that though it is necessary to tole' Alt
the French where the Flemish is not us.-J, it is but ju.t
to re-establish Flemish, which it the langti-hr tne
country, in all parts of Belgium where it is,ised
understod, and ordain that it shall not be niece,••••l4

The Gazetai of last night contains the details of
the failure of the gallant attack upon Fort Erie, on
the 15th of August. This heart-rending picture has
been placed before the Public in a variety of lights,
both American and English, previous to the present
official illustration ; and, were it not to correct from
that solemn authority, a mistake, or misstatement,
which has gone forth to the prejudice of the Ameri-
cans who defended the fort, we should pass over in
silence the melancholy subject. The explosion, by
which so many brave men lost their lives, was purely
accidental, and not a wanton act of barbarity on the
part of the Americans. Contemptible as they are as
enemies, this acknowledgement is their due. Our
Readers will see that the loss which the British sus-
tained is long ere now repaired by reinforcements,
and that there is a fair prospect of the speedy de-
struction of the whole naval and military preparations
of the Americans for the sulojug-nion of Canada.

The refitting and fitting out American armed yes-
tels is the ports of France, excites, and justly, much
indignation here. That the permission amounts to
hesiditl• can hardly be doubted ; but should there be
even a doubt upon it, there can be Bone as to the
line of conduct which England has a right to expect
from France. The war with America had its origin
in that system of plunder and injustice v.hich we have
been instrumental in averting from France. France,
in return, ought to exert aU her powers, moral and
physical, in destroying its ramifications—not in coun-
tenancing their continuances

Frankfort Papers arrived this Morning, froth which
we select the following articles :
FULDA, SEPTEMBER so.
It trill be *Collected that some public prints lately
contained 'violent invectives against the Princes of the
Items bf Nassau, for sending some of their troops to
Holland. The Gaelic of Nassau now contains a long
explaining this transaction. It begins
lrfdi stating that the gd Regiment of Nassau, under
Igajor-roeneral Kiuse, having received orders to come
war to Lord Wellington, which was effected with
snide lees; and the generous sacrifice of many private
advantages, it was conveyed by way of England to
ivhere it arrived in February, in small de.
titChmeutsi after having suffered much fatigue and
kest,ona-41etatbment.

• The pressure of circumstance& not allowing much,
reptile, it was intended to join' an army under the
Hereditary Prince of Orange Nassau, and it was
completed to two battalions. It had not many op-
portiaities of adding -to its military glory, but its
tiotnent discipline gave it a distinguished place.--
Atilt, armistice, and at the peace, it was judged
secessary to reinforce the national army of the Ne-.
therlands with part of the Allied troops ; and then
his Royal Highness the Prince of Orange Nassau
mimed to the Duke and Prince of Nassau to add a
battalion to this regiment, and to incorporate it for
some years with the army of the Netherlands.
This proposal could not but be agreeable to their
Highnesses, on aceount of the common interests of
the two States, and the family and hereditary con-
nections which had just been confirmed between these
reigning families by the strictest union. A military
and political Contention was consequently concluded
at the Hague on the 18th July last, which has been
since ratified, and contains the following Regulations
concerning the service of this regiment :
,g Ist. This Regiment, consisting of three ',em-
boss, shall remain for five years, after the expiration
of the present years united with an auxiliary corps,
with the array of the Netherlands, under the Prince
of Orange, but shall not be considered as incorporated
with or forming an integral part of that army ; it re-
tains its uniform, its standards, am. sod its particular
formation and internal jurisdiction. His Serene High-
ness the Duke of Nassau has the exclusive nomina-
tion of the officers, &c. who preserve the rank and
seniority in the military establishment of the Duchy,
without regarding the changes in the army of the
Netherlands. It keeps its depot in the Duchy of
Nassau—eannet in any *ay be employed against its
Sovereigns or its country ; shall not be obliged to
serve out of Europe, or aboard of any vessel ; nor
shall it be quartered in Zealand.
416 2d. His Royal pighnets the Prince of Orange
Nassau shall repay to the Ducal Treasury, the ex-
peaces of the equipment of the regiment and the main-
taining the depot. The pay shall be the same, without
any deduction, as that of the national troops-of the
Netherlands; and some addition shall be made ac-
cording to the pay in the Duchy of Nassau, for the
prolongation of time of their service, for the married
men, and then the pensioners belonging to the orders
they may receive."
The following paragraphs contain stipulations,

placing the regiment on tie swot footing ii the na-
tional army. 1 Nis explanation, which shews the ad-
vantages that the country in general will derive Hu,
this convention, and the privileges insured to the,
Officers cers and men, will satisfy the public till the Sates
of the Duchy can attend to this subject. It could not
be published before the etchange of the Ratifications.
If this silence has been abused by ill-disposed persons
to spread calumnious reports, the Government, faith-
ful to its principles, regards them with contempt. It
must be added, that there is no question of subsidies
as is usual in such treaties.
The Princes of the House of Nassau have been the
first to give their subjects a Free Constitution. It is
alrnqf.t a transcript of the English Constitution, a
c:t two Houses, the duration of it seven
years, &c. Indeed some German Journals observe,
that this exact similarity is perhaps all that can be said
against it, since it on this account wants that nationa-
lity which should seem requisite in every Constitution.
On the 15th (Bonaparte's birth-day) and 16th Au-
gust, there were great fetes in the Island of Elba,
games, balls, feasts, &c. Bonaparte treated bis troops
with wine, and had the pleasure to hear them cry—
Vive l'Empereur." Some streets are now named
after streets in Paris.

We have received Paris Papers of Sunday last.—
They present but little inte;ligence of the slightest
interest. Some printers and publishers have bean ar.
rested for issuing seditious pamphlets. Nothing has
yet reached Paris respecting the proceedings of the
Congress at Vienna:
