take the pains of consulting that which
truly reflects the image of the times.

The ATTEMPTED OUTRAGE AT OswE-
Go.-On the 18th ult., Lett and Dafoe
underwent an examination before Justice
Barnes, when Dafoe made a full confess
sion of the transaction. the object OF
which he declared was to burn the Great
Britain, for the purpose of reviving the
ill feeling on the frontier between the
two countries, for the purpose of promo

himself appear to be the only persons
implicated in the transaction.
Other testimony having been obtained,
corroborating in some measure the evil
dence of Dafoe, the prisoners were remain
ded to Jail to await their trial at the Cir
cult Court to be held on the 18th Tuesday
of the present month.

founded that the citizens of Oswego in
the excitement consequent on this villain
ious transaction, rendered Lett to the cap
tain of the British steamer Gildersleeve,
then in port, bound for Kingston.

this letter, from the pen Of the principal
Van Burn editor in this town, is not on

it is proper to notice the other side,
