Ehe island. A Jew shots were fired upon iI from the point. Immediately after the Brit ish opened upon the Island a most tremen- dous fire from all their batteries, and from two vessels moored about mile above. The cannonading and bombarding was incessant for four hours.
 Innumerable bomb shells appearing like meteors, were constantly coursing their de- structive way to the Island. Most of them exploded high in the air, or passed entirely over and fell into the water. hwas supposed that the destruction of life upon the Island was very great, but information has been re- ceived direct and correctly, that no damage whatever was done, except the breaking of an axle-tree by one of their own discharges. After such a cannonading as this, there needs no further evidence to prove, that the Island is a place combining security with impreg- nable means of defence.
 "BUFFALo, January 13.
 nThe force on Navy Island, composed principally of citizens from the United States, is estimated at from 1000 to 2OOO men, well armed and equipped, and abundantly suppli- ed with ammunition and provisions. The fate of this force must soon be decided. It must either enter Canada or disperse. think the latter. It is without discipline, and without an experienced leader. A rumor reached us last night that Van Rensselaer was about to abandon Navy Island, near Schlosser, and thence march to Black Rock, there recross to Canada, and thence to Chip pewa, and attack the Royalists at that place.
 This rumor, however, like the thousand others that have been circulated, proved to be untrue. The Governor and Gen. Scott, on hearing the rumor of the intended movement of Van Rensselaer,, moved in the direction of - Shlosser, to prevent him from carrying It ln- to effect. I have not since heard or them.
