The affair of the British Officer at Detroit, vrlic,
as we stated some time back, had been arretred
the American Government for having vitae.: [.',tit
territory in arms. in pursuit of deserters. t^r T):.
nated. The Officer was tried by a Jury hall
cans and half foreigners, and acquitted isf the capital
crime, but found guilty of a riot, and s•ciitenixd T.,
pay a fine of 500 dollars. Chief Justice Wood.-..e-d,
who passed sentence, said that he difFered tram his
brother Judges in its severity ; the prisoner, he oh.
served, should have been sentenced to pillory an.! iru.
prisonment.
Another circumstance has occurred at the same
place, which is likely to foment and incrnse the
angry dispositions between the two Karen. An
American soldier had shot no Indian under the pro.
tection of the British Government. A reward of 50e
dollars has been offered by the British Commander,
Colonel James. for the apprehension of the murderer,
and the Indians•are in close watch for him. This
has produced a remonstrance from the A•nerican
C.: tecral CliS, who threatens retaliation it ai.y of his
people shall be annoyed by the Indians.
