MOVEMENTS OF GEN. HARRISON.

From an intelligent correspondent at
Presquisle, on Lake Erie, we learn, that
General Harrison arrived at that place on
the morning of the 22d from Detroit with
his whole disposable force, sailed thence ON
the evening Of the Esd ult. and landed at
Black Rock, we believe, on the next morn
ing The amount of his force is not stated !;
but, as he has discharged all his militia
and volunteers, and taken only his effec-
tives of the regulars, it probably does not
exceed two thousand His intention, on
leaving Presqu'isle, was to proceed from
Black Rock to Niagara, and thence to Sack
ett's Harbor, to cooperate with General
Wilkinson in his ultimate movements in
expectation, no doubt, that the Ontario
fleet would be prepared to convey him to
that place. But we already know, and
Harrison will no doubt receive information
when he reaches Black Rock, that our fleet
is otherwise occupied in watching the Bri-
fish squadron and covering the movements
of our army; so that, until some decisive
advantage is gained over the British naval
force on the Lake which will justify Chaun-
cey in leaving his station to convey Har-
rison's force down, he must remain in the
neighborhood of Fort George He has
however some work before him. The
British General Vincent, with between one
and two thousand men, our readers will
recollect, was by the last accounts posted
on or about Burlington heights, IN the
rear of Fort George The Generals at
tention will of course be Immediately di-
rected to that point. If he succeeds IN cap
turing or destroying this force, SO as to pre- |
vent its junction with the body of the .Bri- !
fish army, the obstacles to our operations |
at the other end Of the Lake will be render
ed by so much less formidable, than they |

{" have Just been informed that our ar

some firing last evening on the margin of
the river above, and it appeared to proceed
downward; the orders for the interrogation
of every thing moving up or down unless
what belongs to the army, prevents COM
munication of every sort and should pass
TO the St. Lawrence and accompany the ar
my, if the orders were not SO strictly en-
forced. An express passed this way last
night from the army of observation under
General Hampton the messenger was not
permitted to proceed farther, bat his des-
patches were carried forward, and he re-
mains here by order two days; we know
from him. however, that Hampton had
marched for the head Of Chatagaa Q days
ago and as that riveris navigable, he must
be within a days march of Montreal by this
time. The enemy has thrown up some
field works near the mouth of the Chatagua :;
but our troops will probably land above,
move to the right of them by the upper road
leading to La Prairie, and cut down to the
left for the river at the Recolets old village
The passage down the Cadaraqui must be
tedious and laborious all the ammunition
but what the men carry, and one ammuni-
ton Wagon to each field piece, go by land !;
the British have improved the road from
the St. Francis leading upward, and RATS
at this season are to be had on all these wa

the Natl0naA AHAeiilgcnCeF, WHICH VIII Oc
found in this evenings paper, looks omi-
nous, and has excited some pretty strong
suspicious that all is not quite well.
From the National Isteliigenesr, Noo. 5.
BY the failure of direct information from
Sacketts Harbor, we are left in a state of
suspense and anxiety as to the fate OF the
expedition which has sailed from that port,
and is supposed TO be destined against King
ston Prom the talents aud force embodied
ia our military service, we anticipate sue
cess; but confess that, owing to the lateness
of the season, and the unavoidable delays,
which have given time To the enemy to pre-
pare and concentrate his means of defence,
we are not without SEINE apprehensions for
the result 1t is impossible we should re
main in ignorance many days longer
Meanwhile we may be permitted to observe
that our great advantages in every enter
prize set on foot in that quarter during the
present campaign, have perhaps generated
in the public mind too sanguine an expecta-
ton of immediate and unbounded success.
We hope and indeed believe, that in ten
days hence the enemy will be entirely dis
possessed of Upper Canada but, should
the result be otherwise, the MANY untoward
circumstances which have occurred. among
the most prominent of which are Chaun
cey's failure in his efforts to bring Yeo to
action, and the adversely of the winds which
retarded the passage of the army from Fort
George to Sackett's Harbor, have prepared
our minds for different state of things. II
success crown our wishes, the triumph will
be glorious if otherwise, failure will not
be dishonorable, because it will be the ele-
ments and not the enemy which have check
ed our career of victory.
