candidates, and heretofore our Representative
in the Legislature, hearing that the vote he
gave at the last extra May Session, against the
repeal OF the law which exempted Students at
Public seminaries of Learning from military
duty, was offensive to to the People, and likely
TO operate against his success in his re.elec-
ticn, addressed them on The occasion, in n strain
OF eloquence to be equalled by few. We do not
remember ever to have heard Capt. P. spoken
OF before as an Orator. Indeed, we have been
informed, that he never attempted to speak in
public before that day. His manner, taken To-
gether with the happy arrangement of his ideas,
and delivery, clearly proves his mind 20 have

Day before yesterday, orders were received
from his Excellency the Governor, requiring
the militia Of this Brigade to march to YER
GENES for the protection Of our shipping at
that place. They marched yesterday. The
alarm accompanying this order has been great,
in consequence of information that the enemy's
naval force were past Cumberland Head, pro-
cecding to Yergennes forthe destruction OF Our
shipping. We are enabled, however, to state
from unquestiOnably authority, that the enemy
have not appeared at Cumberland Head or in
sight OF it The present call for militia, has
been in consequence of an order from Major
General Wilkinson ofthe I'd Of April, to Cen
erai Moon, directing him TO remove his brig
sde from Plat burgh 10 Burlington, and 10
make reqHisition on his ExcelIency the Co
vernon, for a militia force TO guard the shipping
and public property until our feet should be
ready 10 proceed to the lake with the new brig
and row gslIies now building.
We learn that the new brig was launched at
FergeDnes on Monday last.
The Northern Centinel of the 9th inst. confirms
in every particular the statement in our ! st re.
latiye TO the action at Ia Cole Mill, except as
to the number Of killed and wounded. Our
loss was killed and GO wounded Among the
latter 6 officers, two of whom were Captain
MPherson md Ensign Parker, since dead. The

Antwerp, the great rise in the French funds
