NEWS FROM CANADA.


On Tuesday the 9Th instant,a detachment
was ordered by the commander ofthe Patriot
forces at Napierville,to npen a communina-
ton from that place to Champlain. DIR
Cote held the command Of the party, and
executed the duty assigned him in gallant
style; assisted by Col. Gagoon he took the
Stone Mills at La Colo, garrisoned by one
hundred men. In the execution Of this
duty he took a number of the Oldetown
militia prisoners, whom he parolIed, on their
word ofhonor to remain neutral. Doct.
Cote distinctly informs them that if any
of them violated their parole ne would hold
the whole accountable.
On Wednesday these parroed Tories,
being joined by a body of regulars, forgot
their promise, and uniting with theln,drove
DIR Cote's rear guard, killing seven and
capturing one piece of cannon. By the
following extract of communication, it
will be seen that they have met their re-
ward
"The Naperville Patriot forces moved
upon that place this morning fought an
hour and a half-recaptured their canyon
and small arms which they lost day before
yesterday. The dead ,counded and pr'is-
oncrs which were taken by the Patriots,
amounted to Three Hundred said to be
mostly British Regulars"
In addition, the express who brought the
above, says, that the patriots burned every
tory's house from which they were fired
upon, amounting to seven

this demand upon the mechanic interest,
we will consider in another letter.
We have now ascertained how one kind
Of perfect credit" is created BY this plan.
The next aperiect security viii be the
bonds Of the company, which viii bind al
the capital for their redemption. This
will be- better security, or win have a
greater amount Of property pledged for
their redemption, than the stock.
The bonds Of such a company must be
ia great demand, at very low rate Of in
terest, and viii command gold in any coun.
try at any time.
With the pledge of fifty millions Of uns
doubted record securities, this company
viii be able to issue its bonds to any a.
mount the trustees may be disposed to
borrow, at a very low rate of interest.
The better the security the lower will
be the rate Of interest, ifthe investment is
for long time, and therefore this institu-
ton will be able to bring money, when re-
quired, into this country at less rate of
interest than we have yet paid for foreign
capital.
These two kinds Of security, Of which
we have now spoken, are the representa-
tlves of property and its products; andbe-
ing promises made to be fulfilled at a GER
tain distant time, win yield a certain reve.
nue. corresponding in some respect with the
value ofthe property they represent.
Bank notes, on the contrary, bear no
interest, and are supposed to be the mere
representatives of gold and silver, which
affords no revenue to the holder, and which
are made convertible into those metals on
demand.
Ofthis character of credit, a certain a.
mount only can be kept in circulation,
which must decrease with the increase of
wealth and the decrease of business.
Few are willing to lose interest on mon-
ey beyond limited amount, and there.
fore it is that business men generally in
vest all the profits beyond the amount ne.
cessary for capital in something that will
pay an interest. In proportion therefore
as acountry furnishes securities bearing in.
terest and always convertible into money,
SO will the amount of bank notes which
bear no interest decrease.
Bank notes, issued by such an instItu.
ton as the one we are considering, will
have the highest possible credit, and will
be used to the greatestpossible extent that
the currency can be employed. Not on
y will they be secured by pledge of pub
lie stock in the hands of the comptroller,
but they will have the capital of the insti-
tuition as a reserved fund.
No one can doubt that an institution
based upon revenue securities will be able
to raise any amount ofready cash by de.
post or bonds, that it may require fol-
banking purposes, and that it can never
want for funds under any state of the mag,
ket, as long as the bonds of such an insti
tuition will sell at home or abroad.

The Saginaw Indians residing within the b.
mits of Michigan, are up in arms against the
whites, on account of an aledged violation Of
their Treaty with the United States.
The Detroit Daily Advertiser of May Sd,
contains memorial signed April 19th, by 800
inhabitants of Grand River, Michigan, soliciting
the President for troops to defend them from the
Saginaw Indians, who had murdered the lani-
" Of Ansel d. Glass. The Saginaws were, it
appears, provoked to this aggression in conse-
quence Of the non-fultilment bg the u. States of
the provisions of SChoolcraft's treaty of 1885,
to pay them their annuity in specie
The New-York Star states that the darkest
feature of this faithless transaction, is the fact
that Suydan, Jackson, & Co. last summer, OBJ
tanned draft offorty thousand dollars in specie
on the Land Office, for the Grand River Dis
trict, transported it to the city of New York,
and in exchange for which they sent goods to
the Island of Mackinaw, to be paid to the In
dams in lieu Of the specie stipulated in the treaty
The Indians refused to receive the goods be-
cause the express stipulation was for specie
and not for goods,
Suydam, Jackson g. Co. are extensive Dry
Goods Jobbers in New York, and the concern
if we mistake not, has long been pet of the
government in the way of furnishing Indian
