The Avon siocp "f war, lately sunk by the
Wasp, is the same vessel which came into the
Delaware in the year 1910, in defiance OF the
law prohibiting vessels OF war from our waters;
in contempt Of this prohibition, she perad ed
oil this Borough for several days. Rctribution
has AZ length overraken this vessel, and like
the Guerfiere, she has paid with her csrcsse an
expiatory atonement for British insclence. The

Ne7vs from Lake Ontario.

uTThs following articles from our latest Western
papers, furnish all the probable particulars relative
to the recent operations OF the enemy on Lake
Ontario - -
Extract Of letter from Sacksts Harbor, dated Mays,
Last evening an express arrived here 10
the commanded, purporting, that British
force of several sail, (sorae say seyen) were
seen standing for Oswego. This was immed-
lately magoiiied, and the result was, that they
had commenced bombardment OF the place.
Bustlc aud confusion was tho order OF the day
amongst the citizens the soldiers were turn
ed out, and early the next morning de;ach-
ment OF evenly spies were sent to recoDnoitre;
and At the same time, the briggs Oneida and
Syiph were ordered out every vessel In the
barbor, that has been ready for some weeks,
have this day been provisioncd, and upon get
ting out will comprise the sloops OF war Gen-
eral Pike, Madison, Jefferson, and Jones, to-
gcther with the schooner Govcrner Iompkins,
and briggs Sylph, Oneida, and Lady ofthc Lake,
already out.
The crews Of tho vessels, and the soldiers
appear to be animated by an enthusiasm upon
the speedy prospect of coming in contact
with the " bulwaik of our religion" The
result will be glorious. The watchword--"
lTs Aaye met The enemy and they arc cnrs."
UTICA, May lo.-A reports from Sacket's
Harbor, of tho taking of Oswcgo by the Brit
ish, reached this place on Sunday last, and the
same news was brought from the west by pas
scngcrs who arrived in the stage on Sunday
evening. We are informed by gentleman
who left Oswego on Thursday, towards even
ing, that early in the morning of that day the
British feet appeared off the place, and some
time afterwards made an attack, which, owing
\ to unfavorable winds, and to the bravery with
which the Americans defended the place, pro-
we'd unsuccessful. We undsrstsrii that let
ter, received yesterday from Sackc,'s Harbor,
states, tina; on Friday the enemy succeeded in
landing at Oswego, that our troops retrcated
to the Falls, aud that the British fleet had>sai-
cd back to Kingston. We are glad to learn
that there was not at Oswego any great a.
mount of public property. From the infor-
nation we have obtained, we believe that the
guns taken by the enemy do not exceed or
a in number.
