CANADA

No news Of much importance from the west
has reached us. Rumors of several attacks upon
Navy Island, have at different times reached us;
but they amount to nothing more than the firing
Of a few guns by the British, which did no harm.
The following letter, from the Rochester De-
mocrat, written by the Editor, who is, or has
been on Navy Island, contains the latest news
from that quarter.
SUNDAY MORNING, O'clock, A. M.
During last evening Gen. Van Rensselaer, re-
ceved information from an authentic source, that
he would be attacked this morning at sunrise, and
that the attack would be preceded by lombard
ment of six hours.
With this information, you may conceive the
excitement which was produced by the war Of
cannon, from the main shore, at midnight. The
first, second, and third rounds were accompanied
BY bombs, which exploded before they reached
the sland-presenting in the explosion most
beautiful spectacle.
The night was beautifully serene, and as the
messengers. of death were heard whistling through
the air, the reflection irresistibly pressed itself
upon the mind, however holy might be the cause
which induced it, war was an evil greatly to be
deprecated.
The firing continued at intervals, until 4
o'clock, at which hour it commenced raining se-
yerely. It still rains, and it has doubtless frus-
trated the plan of attack, as no attack has yet
been made. If an attack is not made soon the
Patriot army will proceed to secure foothold
upon the Canada shore. How, time will deve-
lope.
An express arrived here yesterday stating that
Duncombe had embodied an army of thousand
on British island, in the neighborhood of De.
troit. | conceive this far more probable than thai
he had taken Fort Maiden.
There are about 300 rifemen on Grand Island
who win take very good care that none O
McNabb's troops effect landing thereon, or ever
intrude too extensively on American water.
The Indians, under McNabb, are extensively
dispensing. Out of the or 500, not more thar
| 100 now remain.
| firmly believe, from my knowledge Of tn
character Of the men upon the island, and Of tn
island itself, that 1000 men would meet with
prompt and bloody repulse, if they attempted t
land upon the island. This the Patriots believ
themselves, and at meeting Of the officers yes
terday, unanimous hope was expressed una
McNabb would make an immediate attack.
