RULES OF BRITISH WARFARE.

." No Quarters TO The d. d Yankee RaS-
cais'--on the frontiers*
" Destroy and lay qcaSte such fo7vns and
districts nhon the coast as may be JouHd as
Sailablc*
And these are the humane maxims by
which @. Britain intends to wage her savage
war upon us These are the denunciations,
by which she hopes to bow our proud spirit to
3" unconditional submission" These
Americans! behold the enemy with whom
you are at war! Your countIymen butcher
ed Ill the very act of asking for quarters
Your sea-coast laid desolate Your towns re-
duced TO ashes Or if unfortunately for
them, they lay themselves at her feet, she
treats them the highwayman treats the
wretch, wien he places the pistol at his
breast, "Hour life or your purse, Sir" Let the
tate OF poor, lost, degraded Alexandria warn
you
What then becomes Of the tender mercies
Of G. Britain OF her regard for private
property Away with such contemplate
cant What COck5urn ard others had evin-
ced by their acts, Cochrane now confesseS by
7voT0ts. If you submit, you are snipt of your
property, as wellas your honor. Then, lei ue
defend ourselves like men. The only way 20
save ourselves is to defy the enemy, and re-
sist him by the sword.
But as we know not where his blows may
fall, as this uncertainty in bis movements may
require us to call out a variety of troops and
to expend large stocks of money, as it may
expose our coasts to desolation, we must d.
versify our operations, send 10000 noots IN
tO Canada, and transfer the seat of war from
the gates of Rome to the gates Of Carthage.
BY thus pushing the war into the enemy's
country, we compel him to transport his
troops to Canada and rid our own coasts Of
his mCrCcnaTies.
To raise there 10000 troops, let us do as
we did III the days of the Revolution-So ma
NY men either to furnish soldier among
themselves, or contribute money to furnish a
substtute--to act during the war. Thus,
such as do not wish to risk their EeT6oH8, may
open their purses.
Ii is a rigorous war which seems to pro-
mise a speedy or a favorable peace.

LATEST FROM ENGLAND.


We have conversed with several gentlemen
from Halifax, who left there the 25d inst
from whom we learn the following.
The July Packet arrived at Halifax the DIST
from Falmouth, bringing London dates to the
Goth July-they contain very little respecting
our affairs aud nothing favorable to peace.
The papers state that all the American Com
missioners, except Mr.. Gallatin, had arrived
at Client. MIR. G.. was expected daily. The
British Commissioners had not left England,
and The packet brought a report that new ones
bad been appointed.
The papers state that the army in France
was very uneasy, aud il was thought war
was not far distant between that country and
Austria. A great military spirit still prevail
ed among the French, who were collecting
their forces, and it was thought Louis would
be forced into war with Austria. The
French soldiers speak with enthusiasm Of
their former successes, and consider Austria
the cause of their degradation. Thc Allied
Sovereigns had left England.

count of the capture Of II. y. M. ;. w. Rem

who stad in Alexandria on Friday night, says
that the British vessels left the town ON
Thursday late i'll the evening-that about
midnight they were attacked by our men "a

at the Is. Bottoms so DISTRACTED as TO arrest
their descent, & at which place tremendous
fire was opened upon them from both shores
they returned up the river, and sent back
to Alexandria and fired the shipping left
there under treaty. The whole force now
attempted to pass on Friday under severe
