IMPORTANT INTELLIGENCE.
TINES AMI ADVERTISER, Extra. !
Ogdensburgh, Nov. l2. I
CANADA WAR.


Early this morning it was discovered that
two schoouers, loaded with armed men were
in the river between this village aud Prescott.
Expectation was soon rife and excitement
pervaded the whole population. Ii was Oh
yious that Fort Wellington WAS the point Of
attack, and our citizens soon thronged the
shore, eager to catch every movement.
small armed steamboat was lying at
the opposite wharf, and the people of Pres
cot, paradiDg up and down from the village
to the fort gave evidence that no small de-
gree of hubbub and exctemen, pervaded
the whole population.
One of the schooners containing the reb-
el armament had gone aground during the
night, and band Of armed men seized the
Steamboat United States, and pressed some
of the hands into their service for the pur-
pose of getting her off. She however was
not able TO reach the schooner, as the water
was not sufficient for her draft, aud she
came into port for Il long hauser. As she
went out again. the Experiment "a British
armed steam-boa) greeted her with two
shots, which missed nad she passed down
the river.
About nine o'clock, A. NJ, ore detach-
ment of The forces made II landing on the
Canada shore about mile below Fort We'll
lngton, aud whether they were attacked or
not is uncertain. One opinion is that par
ty attacked them but retreated at the first
fire. Men have been constantly crossing To
them in small boats, and up to this hour,
two O'Clock, p. NJ, about FIVE hundred are
supposed to have joined them.
fEha IF ka
has been on the water. The Experiment
kept up an irregular fire during the fore
noon on the schooner and the United States.
Watching their various evolutions and Oh
serving the skipping of the sho, as they
glanced along the surface of the water form
ed very exciting scene in "a quiet village
like this.
Between eleven and twelve o'clock the
Paul Pry, used ferry boat between this
place and Prescott, went to the relief of the
schooner that lay on the bar, and succeeded
in getting her aioat. The Experiment
threw in her shot at liberal rate. and they
were so near several times that they ex-
changed musket aud rifle shot 1t is re-
ported that the Experiment sustained loss
OF scUen men-the schooner none.
After the schooner GOT ailoat, the United
States came up and entered the harbor. As
she passed the armed steamboat shot
passed through her wheel house, and killed
very worthy young man by the name o!
Foster, a steersman of the boat.
3 o'clock II. M.-The rebel forces occu-
py wind mill, about mile below Prescott
and it is understood that there is another
body above who have taken up bridge and
stand prepared to defend themselves.
The afternoon has been quiet so fur
Small boats are constantly crossing Will
men and arms.
