NEW YORK. OCTOBER. 14.

The Americans are busily employed in rendering
Niagara one of the strongest fortresses in the United
States. On the land side they are extending the
works by strong redoubts ; and on the river they are
construceng.thelving batteries, almost even with the
water, which they properly can marine fortifications.
Whether these works of offence or defence have given
rise to suspicion in Fort Georgeb we cannot pretend
to determine ; but we are Credibly informed, that the
British Commandant has lately become very particu:
lac about the spot where every .boat is to land, and
has prohibited British citizens from amusing them-
selves by shooting or fishing on certain parts of the
common beach, which has Assays, in times of peace,
been as free to theni as the air they breathed. In
consequence of this order of the Commandant, Tho-
mas Racey, Esq. and a son of the Hon. William
Dickson, have been put into confinement for amusing
themselves on the sacred, ground of the public in the
time of profound peace. We soon expect further
particulars respecting this disagreeable occurrence.
