WEDNESDAY, Nov. 9!

An intc'lgen, gen, lcman who left Swan
ton last night, arrived in the northern stage
this morning, bringing us information of {
decisive engagement between the patriot.
and loyalls's on Saturday night. Our in
forman', Mr.. SANBoRN, of Platsbnrrh
says that an express arrived at Swan,or
las, night, at 6 o'clock, bringing spach
from Mr.. Brown at St. Charles, dated II
o'clock A. NJ, on Monday, giving a par
ticnlar account of the engagement. Mr.
SanborD, says he saw the letter, heard i,
read, and was prescn, at the examination
Of the messenger who brought it. There
can be no mistake. The following letter
from our obging correspondent, Mr. Whit.
temore, at ST. Adams. embodes The facts
substantially as we gather them from our
informant. We therefore adopt it for the
present occasion.
DEAR SIR-The glorious news has
just arrived here which may be implicit
ly credited, that at IL o'clock on the
evening, of the 25th inst, the regular
and volunteer British forces 1900 strong
made an unexpected assault upon the
fort at st. Charles about 80 miles from
Montreal. The assault was urged and
resisted with the greatest obstinacy and
most determined resolution on both sides
until near morning, when the British
were suddenly attacked in the rear by
about 1900 patriots from st. Matthias,
If miles distant, who, hearing the can
nonading, reached to the rescue, and
came up just in time to save the fort
which was about being capturad. The
royalists Immediately fled in all direc-
tons into the woods with the patriots at
their heels, and will probably nearly all
be killed or taken prisoners, as the pa
triots under the orders of Gen. Brown
had previously cut off all means of re-
treat or escape, by destroying the boats
in the river Richclieu, and stationinr
forces in the only places where they
might retreat. When the express left
st. Charles at 7, A. NJ, on the Goth the
patriots were in hot pursuit. The pa
tricts lost in the assault on the fort
about 200 men in killed and wounded.
The loss ofthe assailants not KNOWN
They left behind them two pieces of
cannon; but did not burn the village of
St. Charles. There is no doubt ofthe
result; the British forces, this side of
Quebec, are nearly all annihiIated A
spirit of patriotism and courage is arous.
ed in the French population so much
dosp;aod, and SO tauntingly stigmatlsed
as towards, which will shortly take VEN
geance upon their oppressors for the
slavery of nearly century. 1t is said
that there is scarcely royalist in the
whole French population. The women
are engaged in making ball cartridge,
and arc as enthusiastic as their husbands
and brothers. Many ofthem in advance
of the British forces, threw into the riv-
er all their furniture and provisions that
they could not carry, and set fire to and
abandoned their houses, rather than that
they should fall into the hands of the
enemy.
