"Several gentlemen returned here yes

pressed with a belief that the squadron is
coming down sound first fair wind. They
say that Mr.. Stewart, late Consul at New

that they expect every moment thirty trans
port ships; that they may be for N. York
is also apprehended They learned from
Mr.. Stewart that the ships would sail the
first good wind. We are in considerable
alarm, and rather believe shall have an
additional military force ordered here by
the governor.
1t seems as though the British naval
commanders are determined to drag the
physical force of New England into a vi
gorous defence of our territory they expe-
rienced at Stonington Point the sharp
shooting of federalists, as they say them
selves, having the gun brig hulled nine
by the eighteen-pounder. They say the
id Yankees fight like the ID.
This morning the constituted authorities
have been together in council, on the sub
Ject of defence a committee has been ap-
pointed to report at eight o'clock to NOR

says it is a settled point, they are coming

We were last evening fovored with Que
bee papers to the 18th inst.
QUEBEc, August 4.
The power of England was never dis
played in Canada as at present. The
troops which arrive daily are no longer res
Inducements, but complete brigades, mo-
we'd from the banks of the Garonne to the
St. Lawrence, with the whole Material OF
an army in the field. The horses which
dragged the cannon at the baths Of 'Tou
louise, on the tenth Of April. are now at
Quebec, as well as the p~ontoonS "a which
the British forces crossed The Adour and
Garonne.
Such troops, carrying with them such
recollections, never landed in America -
They tore the laurels from the brows of
the conquerors of Marengo. of Austerlitz,
and Averstadt. They greatly contributed
to the peace Of Europe, and we have no
doubt but they will restore peace to Amer
lea; peace upon such terms as will no lon
ger leave US exposed to the ~treacherous at
tacks of misguided neighbors.
We understand that the whole force
which was to sail from the Garonne for
America, would not be short of thirty
thousand men.
AS the transports arrive they proceed up
the river Immediately.

Dear Sir-1 arrived yesterday from the
frontiers. Nothing has occurred of moment
since my las. communicate on.
On Saturday morning, Governor Provost
went on board the fleet, and from thence
to the Isle an Noix. Salutes were fired
from both places.
l conversed yesterday with a person from
Canada, who observed that a simultaneous
attack OF the feet and army would be made
in a few days that Governor Provost had
determined to wait the arrival of those
troops recently landed at Quebec, which,
with the militia and force he now has at
Odletown, will give him a force of upwards
of 10000 men.
