NEW YORK, JULY I!.

Enclosed is a copy of the circular, from the War-
Department, to the Governors of the different States
of the United States :

" War Department, July 4.

46 SIR —The late pacification in Europe offers to
the enemy a large disposable force, -both naval and
militaty, and with it the means of giving to the war
here a character of new and cncreased activity and
extent.

" Without knowing, with certainty, that such will
be its application, and still leas that any particular
point or points, will become objects of attack, the
President has deemed it advisable, as a measure of
precaution, to strengthen ourselves on the line of the
Atlantic ; and (as the principal means of doing this
will be found in the militia) to invite the Exei.utives
of certain States to organize and hold in readiness, for
' immediate service, a corps of 93,500 men, under the
laws of the 2t3th of February, 179.5, and ltith of
April, 1814.
" The inclosed detail will thew your Excellency
what, under this requisition, will be the qu.ita of
" As fat as volunteer uniform companies cm) h,
found they will be preferred. The expediency of re-
garding (as well in the designations of the miLiia
of their places of rendezvous) the points, ilic import-
:Luce of exposure of which will be most likely to at-
tract the views of the ent r , need but be suggested.
A report of the OrgaiiiLitiOli of your quota, when
completed, of its place or places of rendezvous, will
he acceptable.-.-I have the honour to be, with vLry
great respect, ) our Excellency's must obedient an,!
:tumble servant."

brook by two barges ; a sloop was fitted out. went
in pursuit, rc.captuted her, and brought lisr into
Say brook.
Paaers on Wu a.—Since the news of die arrival rd
part of the I)uke. of Wellington's Army at Quebec has
been Raised, and since the requisitina from our
President fur upwards of WOW militia has ken
published, the id:a of a continuation of the war has
pretty generally prevailed. For our past. however.
we still hope fur peace, and we see nothing in all
these tilings to weaken that hope.
NAT! )NAL Roust.—Letters from Virsi,bington
66 It is reported 11. it Congress will be convened im-
mediately, for the purpose of laying additional inter-
nal taxis, and establishing a National Bank."— It is
our opinion Congress will not be convened until the
day appointed by law; but when they du come to.
grther, they will undoubtedly have to lay sew taus,
and will probably attempt to raise mosey by means
of a
.Baok :—whether thl:y will succeed or not is an.
other affair.
We understand a letter has been received in town
this morning from Watertown in this State, inform.
ing that, for a few days previous to the date c.f the
letter, 450 boats with troops and munitions of war,
had been seen to pass Ogdrnsburgh, supposed to be
trom Montreal for Kingston.
It is reported that the remainder of the twenty.fiv•
rn4l4in Loan has been offered at b 5 per cent. and
leaned.
