The following extract from a Pro
violence Or. ~ paper, is highly ai'-
plicabfc to our city
The uniserits which the present
unrighteouS war has accumulated
upon the people, are such as no
people can long endure. The high
price OF every imported article. has
raised that of every thing of domes-
tic growth or maauiiicturc-partly
FROM the interruption Of our coast
Ing trade. and partly from the neces.
sity which our fellow citizens in the
country are under of raising the price
OF their produce in the same ratio,
with the rise of imported goods
Ne are told Of the enormity Of the
direct tax which is impeding over
our heads-but the additional price
which we pay for every article of ne
cessify or comfort. is a war tax,
which. compared witt, the direct i'm.
positions. are as "a mountain t0a wart.
From calculation Of the sums
which this town pays. more than
formerly, on some Of the principal
articles ef consumption, we may
form a rational calculation Of the a
mount which the war costs the town
for one year.

l arrived here last evening from the
Western frontier. You will probable ex.
pect some news; but have very little

merous and contradictory. that pay but
little attention to what hear
Gen. Wilkinson reached Pultneyville
on Friday last. He cane from Sackeu's
Harbor to the mouth Of Gennesee river
in an open boat; and the same day pro-
ceeded in Wagon on his way to For!
George, where presume he arrived on
Saturday. The General stated, while
at Pultneyville, that, previous to his leav.
ing Ssckett's Harbor, he had ordered
$50 troops to leave that place for Fort
George; that after they had embarked,
news came that the British had received
large reinforcement al Kingston and
that he of course imne diatel, rdsred
the troops to disembark.
On Saturday last, about o'clock, On
officer arrived at Buffaloe from Fort
George, who informed me, that on FRI
day regiment consisting of about 900
men bad arrived at the Fort from Sack

reinforcement of 1900 men. cannot

contest for the Lake will be decided this

The flotiIla under the commanded

Hook yesterday afternoon.
We learn by the pilot-boat Uni.
corn, arrived from Sandy Hook. that
on Sunday afternoon, the British fri.
gate which has been cruizing in our
Offing for some days. chased a smack
close in with the Light; and, being
within the reach of the guns of the
fort at that place. several were dis.
charged at her, Il ii is believed that
two shots took effect, as she soon
sheered fafter discharging several
guns towards the block. house on
Sandy Hook. An alarm was excit.
ed at Fort Richmond, several guns
were fred, and all was a scene of
hustle and active exertions in pre-.
pairing to meet the enemy. The a.
larm reached the city, and the ne.
cessary preparations were also made
here. At this moment, all is tran.
quill, and the single ship which oc.
casioned so much hustle, is still
cruizing off the Hook at a safe dis.
lance from our fort at that place.
The bodies of those lamented He.
roes Captain LAWRENCE & Lieu
tenant LUDLOW. arrived in this
city yesterday morning from Salem.
We learn that the funeral process
sion will take place on Thursday
morning. the Common Council ha-
wing made preparations for that pur.
pose. Captain Lawrence's corpse is
to be landed at the Battery, and the
procession will proceed up Pearl to
Wall-street, and from thence to Tri-
nifty Church.
We have seen a letter dated on
board the privateer Saratoga, off St.
MichaeIs. the 1st August. This
letter states. that on the 18th Of July
they fell in with fleet of merchant.
men of 80 sail, under convoy Of a
ship of the line, frigate. and briggs
which often chased the Saratoga, q
kept the feet so hudd'ed together
tina it was impossible TO make any

Saratoga boarded a Spanish ship 81

soon after went in chase Of another
