War IN Ettrope.-By the following ar
[ticle which we copy from the London
Courier of April, 25th, it appears, that
the new war is becoming popular in
England, or, at least, that all parties unite
lin fastening the whole of its g guilt and
responsibility" upon 6 Bonaparte and
Ibis Janisaries."
6 After the noble Proclamation of the
King of Prussia, and the treaty of Wen
Ma, war may be considered as certain.
Perhaps it's actually begun. The whole
guilt and responsibility belong exclusive
~ to Bonaparte and his Janisaries. So
clear and evident is this, that even those
who were want tobe his afoligists do not
refrain from delivering, their opinion
in the most marked and decisive manner.

We may momently expect news from
Europe of the most interesting nature.
The grand war-dance has again com
|menced, and Bonaparte is found footing
1T against all Christendom. We early
expressed an opinion, and we see no rea-
son to alter it-that the Usurper will be
overwhelmed in this contest, which will
be the final end Of him.
5 He must sink BY physical calculations !:
the disparity of the contending force is
so great, and the disaffection of his sub
iects, from the best information we can
obtain) is so fragrant, that with all his
greatness at exigencies,he must be found
totally unequal to the work he has before
hlm.
From moral calculations we see noth-
ing he has to hope: his crimes have kept
pace with every thing that has proved
the destruction ofancient principalities !:
with the treaehery of Joab he has taken
mis- brother by the beard to kiss him, and
plunged his sword to his heart: with the
arrogance of Nebuchadsezzar his COM
nunications have been :" the might ofmy
4 q
power and the glory of my majesty"
with the impiety of Belshazzer has he
laid unhallowed hands on the consecrat
ed vessels ofgold and silver and convert.
ed them to his own use: and with the
perfidieus Judas he has sold his lord when
Mahomet would suit his purposes better.
If therefore he shall finally triumph over
all his enemies, it will be a solitary in.
stance of so eminent william mouthing
the Heavens with impunity.

some states have suffered severely but
North-Carolina, from its being more ex-
posed TO the sea, is the greatest scene of
devastation fences, trees, and in some in
stances houses, have been prostrated by
the tempest. The wind blowing directly

From BEnuFORT- " G

Charleston, Settem6er 23--Wc have
convcrsed with several OF the passengers
of the brig Orleans, Captain Vail, which
was driven into Beaufort during the late
storm, and likewise with Capt. Guthrie. of
the schr. Sally, arrived on Thursday night
from Beaufort. They inform that the Or
leans was literally stripped Of rigging,
sails, spars, and almost every decl, nova
ble--and cargo partially damaged. The
hull of the vessel was very little injured,
but would require being new caulEeA.-
From her crippled state, and being obliged
to send to NewYork for sails, cordage,
&c. some considerable time would proba-
bly, elapse before she could get round
here.
The force of the gale at Beaufort was
most tremendous the whole coast in that
reighborhOod was strcwed with wrecks
On the 9TH iastant the wreck of the brig
Constellation, of Salem, was driven ashore
at Cape Look Out. She was from Marti-
nique, with cargo of rum and moiasses.
When she came ashore, there were but
two men on board, who were most shock
ingly bruised and mangled one of tpem
had an arm amputated after being taken
from the wreck, and it was supposed he
could not recover. They were the on'y
survivors o. the briggs crew, sirteen i'm
number, and had been fifty two hours on
the wreck. A schooner belonging to Beau
fort, (name not recolected) from Balti-
more or some port in the Chesapeake, was
driven ashore in the same gale, and totally
wrecked and the whole crew were SUP
posed to have persisted, as not soul was
seen to reach the shore. Many other YES
sells we're driven ashore in and near Beau
fort, but most of them were got of with
more or less damage. The mischief occa-
stoned by the gale and the uncommon
height OF the water, was very considerable,
on land. We believe that North Carolina
mas been greater sufferer in this storm on
ShoTe, than any other state. Her loss has
also been proportionably great in shipping.

Eatruct ola Letter from Gentleman at
D'ummond Island, near 81. Joseth 10
his friend in Montreal, dated .4uguSt
9th, 1915
Dear Sir-This will inform you of my
arrival at this place, after a short passage,
and in good time with the Indian presents.
Cclcne! M'Dcuail, as usual. has been indie
fatigable in consulting. and advising the
different Indian Tribes TO remain quiet,
and maintain peace with the United States.
Our Government has spared neither trou-
Bile nor eXpence, TO put stop to ali hos'il-
tiles between the Indians and the Ameri-
cans. There cannot be Il clearer proof os
this than the orders that were sent by His
Exceilency Sir Gordon Drummond, to col.
MDouall, on hearing that the Indians to-
wards St. Louis had still been commit
ting depretlat;ons on the Americans. A
greeably to these orders, the Colonel sent
Col. M'Kay to Major Morgan, the Com
nnandant at Makinac, to communicate the
substance OF the said orders which were,
that he should go himself to the Mississippi,
and do his utmost to Pacify the Indians.
Major Morgan thanked him very politely,
and could not thin, OF putting the British
Government to- so much trouble, after such
iia;teriRg assurances had been already G.
vinced on its part. He hoped that his own
Government would be able to settle every
existing difference with the Indian tribes
so that III the event of their not succeed
ing in bringing round a peace themselves,
no blame can be attached to the Govern
Tent of Canada. AL the Indians in this
quarter have behaved exceedingly we'll
They say that it is not their wish to yield
MP any part of their territory to the United
States.
They add that it was their great father
the Kings wish, that they should lay down
the Ratchet; they have listened to him,
and obeyed his orders, which they will c.
yer be ready to do as becomes faithful
Children.
We are getting on smoothly at this place,
and have distributed presents to nearly
1000 people. Considerable presents arc
also sent to the Mississippi. Capt. Ander-
son is gone to make distribution Of them
il that quarter.
