NORFOLK, Nov. l.
Yesterday arrived within our capes,.
direct from Halifax, and proceeded up the
bay without loss of time, one ~, one frigate
and Eve transports full Of troops. This
information is from gentleman who was
down in Lynhaven Bay with a flag to the
British commander. While these vessels
passed after communicating with the squad
ron 1t is feared this is only the advanced
division of feet"
The return OF transports with troops to
the Chesapeake, can leave no doubt of an
other expedition against Baltimore AT a
ny rate, it is sufficient evidence Of hostile
intentions to require every preparation for
defence We know not whether the 60
vernment has given the gallant Scott cuff
Gent force to sustain his high reputation,
but we have sufficient assurance from the
past that he will make the best use of the
means at his disposal.
