Madison's Prots.ion.---Last week the U

since marched OF for Canada. This needs

s, Sanguinary Battle.
s Avery sanguinarY battle has been fought
between the Uaited States army under the
command OF Major General Brown and the
British force under Maj Gen. Rail- The
action, i. is stated, commenced at s O'Clock
on the evening of the 25th ult. and lasted
till 10, when, it is said, the British we're dc.
feated with the loss OF their artillery, 9 pie.
ces, and Cen Riall and 20 officers and 200
men, made prisoners The battle, it seems,
was desperately fought on both sides; the
killed aud wounded OF both armies are es-
,imated at c4oo--beiny about an equal
number Of each party.
Gen. Brown, after the battle, retired to
Fort Erie, with the intention, it is said, of
k.crossing to the American side, for want
o. reinforcements. The object OF the Brit.
hh commander appears TO have been 70 get
between Gen. Brown and Fort Erie, and
cut off the possibility Of a retreat.
Gen. Brown was wounded in the thigh,
Gen. Scott in the shoulder, Adj. Gen.
Gardner lost leg; Capt. Spencer received
two balls in his body, but some hopes are
entertained that his wounds would not prove
mortal. Gen. Riall is said TO be badly
wounded
A letter from Chippawa says, the action
lasted TWO hours that the British had not
retired to the fort, but we're supposed to be
making preparations for another battle.
The American force is stated at 1000 |;
that Of the British is not known. They re.
ceiyed reinforcement, during the engage.
