The following letter is from a gentleman
in whose accuracy perfect confidence may hc
placed 10 a gentleman in this town, dated
Burlington, Se,k IS.
Dear Sir-I have Just returned from Msc'Don-
ough's ship.-You have doubtless heard that he has
captured the British feet. This has been perhaps
the most severe taught action during the war The
British had 2i00 men on board their heet McDon-
oIgh only 1873 men. He has killed and taken 1900
men, almost double the number he had on board his
whole Aeet have seen the vessels and it is TO Inc
perfectly Astonishing that single man should have
escaped The British ship is badly shattered, every
mast and spar is entirely cut up. There was an I'm.
mense slaughter. The precise number was not none
when left the Heet-their Gallies escaped, Macdou-
ough being too much engaged in keeping the Brit
ish ship and brig from sinking to pursue tbem--the
English Commodore was killed early in rhe action.
Erraet Of cno.hsr Letter, same date.
"Com MAcdonough is religions man well as

amid such carnage; and replied pointing to Heaven,

when his men at them were shot, and three times be

COMMODORE M'DoNoUGH,


Isahative of the state Of Delaware, an1 Is
about twsn,y-eight years of age. He catered
early into The naval service of his country, 10
which he distinguished himself for science
anl bravery. At the siege of Tripoli he was
midshipman under Commodore Stephen
Decatur, and was ono of the gallant band OF
volunteers who destroyed the frigate Phila-
deiphia and the Turkish gunboats. His con-
duct on this occasion procured for him the
Increased esteem Of bis commander, he
was recommended to Commodore Preble,
who Immediately promoted him.
Alive TO glory, and having before him
many ilustrious example Of Naval Hcroism,
he has eagerly sought. every opportunity TO
bring the enemy to action on Lake Cham
plain. He has succeeded and his good for
tune has placed him on the same proud en-.
lnence which had hitherto distinguished only
The Hero OF Lake Erie.
Wh.n the soul-reyiving intelligehce Of
Commodore M'Donoagh's capture of the
whole British Fleet reached this city on
"Wednesday evening, it was received with an
enthusiastii Of rapture 10 which no language
of ours can do justice. The patriotic scnu-
ments of JOY winch it called forth will be re-
echoed from one end of this vast continent 10
the other and Commodore NJ 'Donough and
his brave companions in arms will have cstab.
lished their claim to the most lively arproba-
tion and gratitude Of the nation.

We congratulate our readers, and the
country at large, on the late brilliant victory
ON Lake Champlain.-Its importance cannot
be duly appreciated at first view. The gal-
liant conduct Of the Ncw-York and Vermont
militia, in keeping at bay the main Bruish
army, commanded by the Governor General
OF both the Canadas in person, Is beyond all
praise. However the enemy may affect to
disregard the militia, they have proved in
this instance that they are able to arrest the
progress of his larges, veteran army-A,he
s. heroes os Spain aud Portugal" II is,how-
ever, more than we had right 10 hope for
and the heroic militia who havs achieved j,
me rit the warmest acknowledg of their
country. Let it operate a Simulus TO ali
brave men and inspire them with renewed
resolution to meet and beat the upprincipled
fee wherever he Gay show hts invading front.

We hear much talk Of The disgrace nf SO
aon defence Of Washington nc disgrace
is not half 40 deep, as that one OF our gallant
ships of war should run up narrow river in
distress, from springing aIeak, and that they
should be surrounded by militia who had not
the courage to assist the captain and crew to
defend the ship. This is the most disgrace.
full thing we have ever yet heard Of, relative
to our militia. The abandoning the Adams,
and leaving Capt. Morris to fight alone, is a
disgrace that the militia Of that place will no.
