Under the Wind-N Mill Point, there is nov
building floating mandatory, or in other
words, a House for Pulling and Cardnr
Machine. This building is about 90 fee,
square, forming two respectable and sepa-
rate apartments the one for family to
live in, the other for business.
The building is supported by two scows.

choring in the middle of the strongest cur

chinery will be set in motion, and his family
all lodged in comfort, on the watery ex-
pause thus saving the expence of pur.
chasing dear building lot In the winter.
the building will be removed to place Of
safety. where it will answer as an excel.

We are happy to understand that VIII
liam Marshall, Esq. Captain in the late
Canadian Regiment. is appointed one Of
the superintendants of the new settlements
at Perth, upon Tsy. River Rideau, Upper
Canada.
This new colony, by every account, is
progressing very rapidly in Improvement,
aud bids fair to be one of the most -four
ishing Districts in the Upper Province.
The Americans are bnsily employed in
rendering Niagara one of the strongest for
tresses in the United States. On the land
side they are extending the works by strong
retloubts [; and on the river, they are con-
structIng shelving batteries almost even
with the water, which they properly call
marine fortihcations. Whether these
works of defence OF offence, have given
rise to suspicion in Fort George, we cannot
pretend to determine bu, we are crodi-
bly, informed that the British Commands
ant has lately become very particular about
the spot where every boat is to land, and
has prohibited British citizens from anu
sing themselves at shooting or fishing On
certain parts ofthe common beach, which
had always in times Of feace, been as free
to them as the air they breathed. In
consequence ofthis order of the Command
ant, Thcma. Racey. Esq. and Son of the
honorable VIM Dickson, have been put
into confinement, for amusing themselves
on the sacred ground Of fhe hu6Hc. in a
time Of hr9found heace We soon ex-
pect further particulars respecting this
disagreeable occurrence.-[HkRALD.
