Extract Of a letter from, Commodore SIM.
clair, TO William Jones, la.e Secretary of
ne. Nary
The cause of the inclosed address not
being signed by more of the officers on the
station, or rather, its not being general was,
that on The monen. of my departure from
Erie, we learned of your having retired
from Office, at which time communication
was cut off between the town and squadron,
by the ice just then forming-consequcnt
those alone who were on shore had an OPP
portunity of expressing the feelings I am
convinced every jealous naval officer must
entertain for your able conduct of that de-
partmen,, during a time SO momentous to
| our country"
Erie, 27fh Dec. 1914.
SIR-In the present juncture of public
affairs, when an officer of ability retires
| from the head of an important department,
| the event is viewed with unmixed regret -
The many improvements which have taken
place under your administration. are lasting
evidencies of your capacity and zeal for your
country's good
With these impressions, the under signed
naval officers on the Erie station, beg leave
10 express their high sense of your services,
| aud their real concern at your retirement.
! To a reputation which you already sus-
tain in private life, will be added that which
| you have so deservedly acquired in the dis.
sharge of your official duties-And while
they are happy in bearing testimony to your
ability in the one, they offer You their best
wishes for your happiness and prosperity ir

GENTLEMEN,
" We learn from the lines, that the treaty Of
peace reached Montreal on Friday last.
Several gentlemen who left Nantucket on
Monday last, have arrived in town, having suo-

boat, with great difficulty, on account Of the

gether to restrain, and that Il was as little
congenial to the disposition Of his majesty's
government. as it was to that OF the govern
ment OF the United States, deliberately to
adopt any plan Of policy, which had for its
object the devastation Of private property"
But the disavowal of the American GOV,
eminent was not the only expia,ion Of the
unauthorized offence committed by its off,
GER TOR, the British government under.
TOOK ITSELF to redress the wrong. A few
days after burning of Newark, the British
and Indian troops crossed the Niagara for
ms purpose /; they srrprized and seized
Fort Niagara they burnt the villages OF
Lewstown, Manchester. Tuscarora, Buffa-
loe, and Black Rock. desolating the whole
OF the Niagara frontier, and dispensing the
inhabitants, in the extremity of the winter.
Dir George Provost, himself appears TO
have been satisfied with the vengeance
that had been inflicted and, in bis pro
ciaDstlon OF the 18th of January, 1914, he
expressly declared, that for the burning of
Newark, the opportunity of punishment
had occurred; that iull measure of re-"
sallation had taken place, and that it was
not MS lnertiont p1rsue further 4 system
OF warfare, so revealing to his own feelings,
& SO little congeaial TO the British character,
unless The future measures Of the enemy
should compel him again to resort to it,
With his answer. to major general Wi!kin-
son, which has been already noticed, he
transmitted copy Of the proclamation, as
expressive of the determination as to his
future line OF conduct.' and added, that he
was happy to learn, that there was no pro-
liability. that any measures, on the part of
the American government, would oblige
him to depart from it,
3. The places ally called the Moravi>
an towns were mere collections of Indian
huts and cabins, on the river Retrench or
Thames, not probably worth, in the whole,
one thousand dollars. The Indians who
inhabited them, among, whom were some
notoriously hostile to the United States, had
made incursions the most cruel into their
territory. When, therefore, the American
army under general Harrison invaded Cans
ada on the OF 1918, the huts and
cabins Of the hostile Indians were destroy
ed. But this species of warfare has been
invariably pursued, by every nation enga .
ged in war with the Indians of the Ameri.
| Can continent However it may be regret,
ted on the score of humanity, it. appears to
be the necessary means Of averting the still
greater calamities of savage bostilities and
tits believed, that the occurrence would
never have been made the subject of a
charge against the American troops, if the
fact had not been misreprescnted or mis-
understood. Many people at home, and
most people abroad, have been led to sup>
pose, that the Moravian towns were the
peaceable settlements of religious sect of
christians, and not the abode of a hostile
tribe of savages.
