informed, that, on Thursday evening last, a person
called GensTal~ Baker, American, was brous hit
rom Madawa-ka, by Edward w. Miller, Egg
High Sheriff of the County of York. and lodged in
Frederiakton Goal. We understand ihet the Of
fences with which he charged. and upon which
he was taken into custody, were, for stopping the
mail, resis ing peace officer in the Lawful dis
charge OF his duty, and for exciting and stirring
up spirit OF sedition, insurrec,ion and revolt a.

persons, aSou, twenty In number, being indignant
at the violent and very reprehensible conduct of
Boxer, volunteered their services, 90 in conpa-
ny with the Sheriff to spprehend him. After they
mad proceeded some distance on their Journey, and
II was found they were armed the Attorney Cen
ersl sent express after them, and prevented
their proceeding. \ few days after this, the She
riff, UNATTENDED by any person, went himself
when he had srriv ed within short distance of
Baker 5 residence he fell in with some Ametcsn-
who guessed his business, and calculating, by hi.
answers 10 their questions, that his object was,
they determined In anticipate him, and took a diff
erent route, intending To notify Baker. In this
they disappointed-t Sheriff arrived at
Bakers before they came up, and spprehended
him. With the assistance of some Frenchmen
who volunteered their services, Baker was secur-
ed, and they next morning, took their departure
Tor Fredericton. Shortly after their departure.
anu while they were yet in view, the American
flag was hois'e ed the spot, by some persons peI-
HIPS by those Americans already mentioned. The
Sheriff S loyalty and zeal was stirred up, at sseu.
this, and he thought of landing to pull it down
he, however, afterwards thought il most prudent
to desi~t and quietly pursued hi, journey, and at
the time first mentioned arrived at Fredericton.
