The editor of the Columbian has been so DO
lite on several occasions as to furnish rs
witha proof sheet. We are indebted to
him for the following which ought to have
arrived in time for our last paper.
NEw-LoNDoN, June is.
Our fears from the enemy have in
great degree subsidized. Their force off
our harbor consists only of the Families s.
Orpheus. Two regiments, the Sd Sc goth,
were dismissed yesterday, and many of the
inhabitants are returning with their goods.
Our squadron at present are safe from
their ships, as to pursue by water would be
1mpracticable, and no injury could be done
by andiug without great additional force
The question whether the expense of
calling out the militia stationed at New
London, sc. should be betrayed by this
state or the United States, has been consi-
dered important, and perhaps remains I'M
decided. Upon this subject the governor
has written, and by to-day's mail has re-
ceiyed an answer from the secretary at war,
highly satisfactory, requesting that 600 of
the militia might be stationed at or near
New-London at the expense Of the general
government About that number are here
at present. 1--WE have another letter which
says $50 for six mon;hsis the force assign,

1NoNISbhS JUNO 10.
The gentleman who accompanied the
flag sent to the British squadron on We'd
nesday was unable to learn the fate of the
licensed vessels that went down some days
ago-The captain of the Junon observed
that squadron OF them had been sent to
sea under convoy of sloop of war, but
whether as prizes or otherwise, was known
only to the admiral.
There are stated to be four ships of the
line, FIVE frigates, and five or six briggs
and schrs. now in the bay.
A few days since an English sloop of
war came close under the sea side of cape
Henry and anchored opposite the windmill.
Shortly after, she dispatched a messenger
ashore with very polite letter to the keep
err OF the windmill, stating that great
Part Of her crew were sick. among. whom
were number Of ,:mcricass who suffered
much for the want of fresh provisions, and
requested him 10 send OH board, immcdi
atcly, two fat beavcs and couple of sheep.
AS the miller could neither read or write,
| 1t is not to be wondered at if he returned
no answer TO this cpistlc, nor troubled him
self much about furnishing the requested
supply. But OIL the next day there came
a very angry letter from the COMMANDER
of the sloop, rcproaching the miller, with
diSreShect Ill not dnSzvcring his former one,
fand threatening, that if the bcaves and
sheep were not forthcoming iii half an hour
he would send party of men ashore, aud
burn the mill. The honest miller, who BY
this time had found out the purport Of these
communications, declared he would comply
with no such demand, but very ipprudcnt-
ly negle ctcd to alarm the country, and call
In the militia to his assistance the conse-
quence was, tfat these modern Den Quir-
ottes came ashore, and confcrmable 10 their
promise, and iii imitation of Cockburn,
Bcrestord, & co. very deliberately set fire
to the mill, stood by it until it was consum-
ed, then retrcatcd TO their ships in perfect
safety. A lew hours after this affair, a
number OF militia amounting to a battalion
assembled and marched to the shore, but
they were too late the enemy had weigh
ed and gone off, but without either beef or
mutton!
Whatever might have been tho rircum-
stances under which the Baltimore reve-
nue. cutter (whese capture in York river
was mentioned in our last) has fallen into
the hands OF the enemy, OF one thing we
have since been assured, that she was not
surrendered without brave aud severe
contest, in which three of the enemy were
killed and many no doubt wounded the
cutter having only one man wounded.
Capt. IFavis behaved with great intrepid
~, and on being carried OH board the Ju-
non frigate, after capture, had his sword
returned to him, with many commentators
On the bravery with which he defended his
vessel. He and his crew are now OH board

Extract Of q letter from major URlianl'
Helms, commanding The militia stationed
on the frontier Of Franklin county, to his
friend in BrookcviUe.
West Fork Of Uhitewater, NZay 10.
From the frequent inroads of the In
dians in our neighborhood, was induced ia
take small scout in search of them. On
the 18th inst. myself, with capts Lee and
Huff, with Sc of our men, started in order
to discover where the indians went with our
horses. we find that all the horses sto-
len from two or three counties, are taken
through the Whiterver town, where thew
get supplies OF corn, sc. After we arrTy
ed at Whitcriver, we found the Massissin-
wa road much used, and from the appear
ance about the houses, as if corn was pack
ed on TO that place--one other trace lead
ing down Whitcrivcr was also used-tbeir
meal bloSks appeared to be used nearly
every day, and a vast quantity of corn fed
to horses within month. Three or four
towns were burnt, and all the corn. On
our way back, at the Bueriver town we fell
In with trail of two horses, supposed to be
stolen from our frontier. Capt. Huff and
lieut.. Briser, with men puvsued-Is
miles came TO camp, discovered two In
dams, killed both, took two rifle guns, from
them and Oh our scout, horses.
We believe there are number Of hunt
ing camps in and about the Blue and White
river towns, and if not ousted, will do us
some damage.
We were politely favored with the follow.

who received them
