days since. that all apprehension of for

an end, and were given to understand
that the whole affair Of the Boundary was
arranged for the present to the satisfaction
of all concerned. We perceive, however,
from letters dated Detroit, July 18th and
Goth, that spice OF the old lcayen still re
mains. A deputy sheriff by the name OF
Woods, from Munroe. Michigan, having
been commissioned about the i2th, to ar

but after crossing the river the people of
Toledo fired upon the sherff's posse. tho

that the judgments upon which the pro-
cesscs were served by Wood did not arise
from any actions Of debt. but vexatious
suits commenced for alleged SANDER, and
other causes, solely for the purpose of
