Accounts have been received from the State of
Ohio, of the surrender of General Hull and the
troops under his command, at Detroit, to the Com-
mander of the British troops in Upper Canada. No
official dispatch has been received from tit. General,
but the intelligence appears to ba too well authenti-
cated. We are unacquainted with tae causes which
produced, and the circumstances attending, this ex-
raordi:iary event, and therefore forbear far the pre•
sent to comment on it.

We understand that the most decided !mason's are
adopted for recovering, the ground said to he lost,
and for prosecuting the campaign with new vigour.
EXTRACT OF A lETTEIt FROM FORT MAT:INC,
DATED AILIGUsIT 19.

" I have the mortification to announce to you the
destruction of Captain Heald and company, on their
retreat from Fort li.arborn to this place. It hap•
pened on the morning of the 15th inst. by an army of
Indians, of about 5 or 600. Captain Wulff, who
went to assist Captain Heald on his retreat, is
among the number killed. We cannot learn that.
any escaped ; but it is stated, that Captain Heald,
Mr. Kinzi, and some women, are made prisoners.
The particulars of this action I omit till another ex•
press."

At. tasitso Itretracrvcc.—We hare been fa-
routed with the following postscript of a letter, writ.
ten at Pittsburg on Wednesday last :
" Since I finished my letter, I have been informed
by General 'Moons, commanding at this place, that
Judge flicks has arrived from Champlin on the lines,
and informed him that a British army of 4000 men
were on their march for this place, by the way of St.
John's. The credit which Judge Hicks gices to this
news induced him to travel the distance in one hour
and 40 minutes.

" If we consider, that at this place is concen-
trated the greatest part of the military stores and a
pert of the army which are to operate against the
Canadas, we shall readily perceive the importance of
the station to the British ; for if the provisions and
munitions of war are captured, the Canadas remain
safe at least for this year."
A LIS.ISIY, Seer. 12.-1)r. White, who left Sackett's
Harbour oil Monday last, reports, that on that day
the British Commandant of the squadron had sent
a summons to surrender all the munitions of war at
that place. This was related to D. White laY Ge.
neral Brown, commanding there, just as he was set-
ting out.
NEW YORE, SEPT. 22.—0 n Tuesday last, pursuant
to adjournment, says The Trenton -Federalist, the
Delegates of the Friends of Peace from the several
counties of the State, met in this city.—The utmost
harreoay prevailed in selecting the tickets of Candi-
dates for Congress, and of Electors of President and
Vice-President of the United States, and in all the
proceedings had on the occasion.
The zeal displayed on this occasion, by the pnnc•
tunl attendance of the Delegates from all parts of the
State, is a pleasing evidence of the spirit which as
tuates the Friends of Peace in New Jersey. All
seem animated in the great cause of the country,
and with the most laudable determination to do their
duty, at this important and interesting crisis of pub-
lic affairs. The same spirit, we are informed, per-
vades the great body of the people, in every county;
and the most Battering prospects of success exist with
respect to Cie ensuing elections.

[FROM Tilt ROSTON cyttristy..]
A cartel, on board of o hick Captain !her 's, and
most of the crew of the Guerrierc were embarked,
ready to sail for Halifax, has been unexpectesily de-
tained by order of the Secretary of the Navy. The
cause we learn is, no arrangement has yet been set-
tled for the exchange of prisoners of war. But the
Nautilus's Officers and crew have been sent up from
Halifax.

Twelve of the Guerriere's crew are detained at
Charleston, as hostages for the safety of sic re-
puted English subjects found among the crew of the
Nautilus, who hare been cent from Halifax to Eng..
land for trial.
