was reported TO me that Proctor had drawn
4 up his troops in orFN ORDER. This was
so great an error, thai could with diff
Gully believe the British General had com

the return that he must be mistaken. Up
on being assured, however, that such was
J the disposition Of the forces under Proctor,
| at once changed the mode OF attack, and
ordered Johnson To charge with his mount

drawn Up IN solid order, as they should
have been, and as every one expected,
would as soon have charged with mounted
infantry upon yonder line Of brick houses.

The Mechanics in the country ARE at least

copes ever made. Ono IN the possession
of an Academy at Albany, II is said 10 be
unrivaled for its beauty and accuracy
Mr.. H. is now constructing one for the
Girard College in Philadelphia, which
will surpass IN SIZE, if not in exquisite pow.
or Of observation, the celebrated Telescope
of Herschel. We saw in tho upper part Of
this city the other day, beautiful astrooo
micai apparatus designed for Williams
College, lnlmitably finished, and embody'ne
more various uses than any other apparatu,
ever constructed. 1t was made by Mr.
Phelps, modest and worthy brass founder
