ing every thing in their way, not on

by which the inhabitants are reduc-
ed to the greatest distress. Not a
single house has been burned by our
troops and not an article taken from

not fully paid.
TO add to the calamities inflicted
on the Canadians by their own ar
nv. the Indians have in several in
stances murdered the women and
children found in houses where our
troops had procured provisions, and
had thrown the msngIed bodies still

was 10 hold the enemy in check. and

Wilkinson on his descent down the

not have been TO proceed TO Mon

probability is. that before this time.

From the late an,i.paci6c tone of the
National MfeiKgencer, the public may,
with prop iety conclude, that the pre-
sent unhappy war is not soon to cease.
From TIE various reports of the fsilure
of the Russian Mediation, in connexion
with the present tone of the gazette of
our government, the friends of peace {;
the friend. of the prosperity Of the y,
States; the christian and the philanthro.
pist, may, we fear. sigh 10 vain for a
speedy return Of that happy state result
ing from peace.
the Bells Messenger article, which
yesterday excited some hope, is, BY the
epior of the CEsTINEL thus spoken
of -
To prevent the American reader from
being deceived BY isise hopes on the
subject of the negotiation OF our cnvsys
- Russia, it is our duty to make the fol-
lowing digest: %,
tits stated on the authority Of BELLS
London Weekly Messenger, of Sepsem-
Der sth, that Lord WALPoLE had been
appointed to negotiate with the. Ameri-
Can Enyuys at s. Petersburg, &c. To
shew the incorrsclns IS of this assertion,
wc have csIy to copy from the official
Gazette of the.same day the following
anuuncia,ion.
Foreign Office, Sett. 4.
His Royal Highhess the Prince Re-
gent his been pleased, in the name and
on the behalf of his majesty. to appoint
the Earl of Aberdeen, K. T. to be his

And we can add, that in one Of Lord
CATHcART's las. dispatches, the Earl's
arrival at the residence of the Emperor
! of Austria, in Bohemia is announced.
But to shew the misinformation < in.
consistency of this Mes enger, we have
new before Us that paper Of the 18th
| Sept. which saws
"Leuers from St. Petersburg state,
that Me.srs. GA.LAr'N & BAYARD had

United States and Great Britain BOT hay.
ing been accepted by the latter. An Of
fetal notice having been delivered t.
this effect, the American Plenipotentia.
rles were preparing to take their de.
parture."
Further remark is unnecessary. 1t
is stated in Southern paper, that the
President has sent out new Instructions
to- Messr.. Adams and Bayard, indepen.
dent Of Mr.: Gallatin. All that need be
said On this is, that the President has
10 authority to give instructions to our
Envoys, hut to negoclate Under the Me.

HON. Mr.. QUINCY'S LETTER.
QUINCY, ed Nov. 1913.
slR-In the (" Boston Patriot" Of
the 9th October last, was published
a series Of observations. purporiins
to have originated in " The Yankee"
and commencing with the following
statement:
1.-THE morality, religion, and pa
triotism of Mr.. Quincy may well
be appreciated by the public. when
they are informed, that he is now
carrying on a foundery for casting
Carmen Balls, and has = contract at
this moment, with Mr.. Secretary
Jones for furnishing the government
with nine hundred thousand pound of
Balls to annihilate the enemy /; end
very probable the very balls that
destroyed the enemy on Lake Eric
were manufactured at his foundery."
The succeeding remarks tend to
impress the public with this idea,
that notwithstanding, in my public
capacity, l had opposed the war. in
my private, ! bad consented to derive
an advantage from it. can i"consis-
tency." the writer concludes, "only
to be reeonciled on the score Of ava.
rice"
To this calumny, it was my intsn.
ton to oppose no other shield, than
that, which conscious integrity
spread. over its possessor. Nor
should I now deyiate from my orr.
ginal purpose, had not letters from
friends, 10 other States, assured me
thst the story was gaining credit, at
a distance /; the bsidness OF the as
sertion having had tho effect Of evil
dence. 1t being difficult for honor.
abl. minds to conceive, that SO IN
qualified an allegation could have
been made unless, there was some
thing, in the nature Of my engage
ments. to give it countenance, or, ut

myself called upen to state, that !
