PARTICULARS OF THE LATE DISASTROUS
AFFAIR ON LAKE cHAMPLAIN. &c.
The brave and lamented Capt. L owaie, in
the Conhance, led our small iiotilla into bat
tie in Il gallant style, and as far as talents,
the valcr OF British tars, and enthusiastic de-
votion To their country, could command victo-
nv, the most successful event was reasonably
expected. That noble officer fell in his coun-
tcy's cause, the second shot, but his place was
ABLY filed by his Lieutenant, who continued
the engagement with unabated vigor, and
was in the act of laying alongside the largest
ship of the enemy, when the r,idder of the
Conhance was unshipped by shot from the
enemy. Tie Linres, small brig, which with
the Con6ance, was the only vessel of any size
