Commendcbic Justice in The Enemy.
In our paper Of September 90, we
gave IN account Of tie piunder of seYe.
ral families at Sturgeon Point, by the
crew Of a British boat.
A proper representation Of the same
having been u.ade TO The British com.
mander at Fort Erie, last week, Gag
arrived AID brought over all the plum.
dcrcd ortIcIcs they could fi:d about tae
boats or ship, AND 800 dollars III q itl,h
gold TO repair the damage. We Under
stand that letter accompanied the mo-
ney and goods, disavowiog the unwar-
iantable acl and apolog ising in very
handsome manner for the outrage. The
evils Of war would be much diminished,
should this principle be acted upon st
Ill places or the frontiers.
FROM DETROIT.
From several Of the American prison.
ers Who were captured on board OF the
Adams, we have the following account
from Detroit.
The hGaiDs left Maiden on the 9Th

They state that The expedition which
went against Fort WAYNE on the 18th
September. had returned TO Maiden on
the 4.h Of October, unsuccessful. The
expedition consisted Of abeut 600 reeu-
lars and militia and 500 Indians they
had proceeded towards Fort Wayne W.
Ill hey Came within 10 miles If an A.
mcricaD army, which they learned from
a prisoner their spies took, 10 he Halr;-

leaving much Of theiy ammunition, &c.
onthe ground. Il was Understood 4:
M9iden int Harrison WAS advancing
upon Detroit with his army. Tho Queen
Charlotte was detained at Detroit, on &c.
count OF the expected arrival Of general
Harrison. At Detroit much property
had been destroyed by the Indians. The
town WAS full Of Indians. 1t is much
feared that the savages viii massacre all
the Americans al Detroit. The above
gentlemen did not understand that ary
sca'ps we're paid for by the British. TIE
British commanders had in seyera! in
stances ransomed American prisoners
taken By the Indians.
