Mr. I.onp--f arrived here in the evening of

IN the morning Of the 5th. The want of food
obliged us fer three months to make daily sor,
ties, in which it was necessary to charge the
advanced posts of the enemy, and we were al
ways successful without hardly loosing any of
our men, whilst this little warfare would con.
stantly lose many to the Russians. We were
deficient of fresh meat; in order to supply
ourselves, we brought in OF the 4 18th of March,

The last nights mail brought us
news that the two fleets were safe in

battle which has been so much talked
OF, was atfihing running fight, in which
neither party received any injury of
consequences. Only single man on

was by a splinter. The movements to

GENERAL ARMSTRONG:

We understand that gen. Armstrong
on his way to the frontier. stopped at
his place in Redhook-while there he
stated in conversation with some gen.
tlemen. that general Dearborn had been
dismissed from the command eftbe ar
nv for atsobedienee IF orders. That he
had been directed to attack KINGSTON
instead ofI.IrrLK YoRx-that his torce
was sufficient to have taken Kingston at
that time, in the state of defence In
which it then was and that his conduct
IN that occasion bad ruined the plan OF
the campaign. He further stated that
the future success OF the campaign de-
pended on our gaining the ascendancy
on Lake Ontario. an event which from
the recent operations on that Lake, we
think not likely to happen this year
The genera, further remarked that there
wa. now no longer any hresfeef ofteaee,
and smoke of contemplated removal OF
the regular troops from Burlington to
Sacke,t's Harbor, and in:imated that
their place vas to be supplied BY mil
lio.

ture that our eonscIipts will soon DC
called to the Geld. Indeed We hear that
the independent companies Of Columbia
county have already been ordered to
