letter from Westoyer Landing, July 31st,
N the Philadelphia Inquirer says:-The firing
chat occurred last night, between eleven and
,ueve o clock, was from on board the steam
boat Achilles. Most of the vessels in the har-
}or are armed with small arms. The watch
IN the deck Of the steamer saw q small boat
approaching and becoming alarmed, opened
On the boat The men IN the boat set up
cry of don't fire on US; we're the Provost
Guard, ;" and all the time kept pulling away
One Of the Provost officers got on the track
Of two boats and followed them down the riv-
er. The Two boats had been haileo by various
vessels as they rowed down, and answered that
they were Provost Guard boats, Nos. and 2.
They escaped in the darkness, and the Assis-
tant Provost did not deem it safe to 20 on
shore, RS his force was not Of sufficient
strength Many officers here say that there
vas no enemy at ALL There seemed to be
period Of fifteen minutes between the firing.
There seemed TO be about q dozen discharges
at each round Of mnskets, intermingled with a
tew pistol shots. There is 30 doubt some Of
the crews Of the boats ia the harbor go to bed
al night really expecting an attack before morn
ing, They get to dreaming Of attacks and
fights and many times the nightmare has
more to do with attacks than anything else. "
An Ohio Committee have been promised q
General from Buell. S Department to be located
at Cincinnati, to have force at his disposal
Tor the protection Of the Kentucky border and
preservation Of order in Kentucky.

Prospectus Of the Brewer legislative Reports

Bow VOLUME vi. f2Eg =
The undersigned now publish their Prospectus
for the SiAti Volume Of TIM BREWER LEGISLATIVE
REroars of the Proceedings and Debates of the
Indiana Legislature.
This work. as heretofore proposed and exc
cuted, will embrace reliable short hand sketches of
tho Journals, Proceeding and Debates of both
Houses Of the Eorty-second Gencraf4Assemblyo of
tn State Of Indiana, to be convened at Indianapo
lis in regular session the 9Th dsy of January, 1863
IL will contain all Motions, Messages. Rcsolu-
tons and COMMITTEE Reports they shall DC made
and submitted, il will describe or copy at length
all Bills and Propositions as they shall be presented
and consdcred it will afford liberal and verbatim
sketches Of the Debates to the extent Of the space
prescibcd. presenting without partzin bias the po-
stion of every member the floor, with the yeas
and nays in every quest on of moment on which
they shall be ordered and taken.
The volume will contain about 400 pages, double
column If the session should continue to the cni of
the constitutional term. The price is One Dollar
for the session.
1t is part of the design of this work to regulate
the style Of journazing; to suggest that the Jour
nal Clerk of each House OF the General Assembly
shall be Reporter, shall be required to employ
such reporting force as may enable him to sketch
every proposition in its order and in due form,
with the debate and action thereon and that he be
required to contract Tor his journal to be printed in
oils. and distrbutei in the two Houses the day at
ter the date thereof. conditioned ttat it shall not
exceed given reasonable amount of mattcr-the
volume of the Journals the Houses to be but
one book. made up from the columns Of the news
paper. In this way thousands OF dollars OF the cost
of rinsing those clumsy Journals would be saved;
and. without adding anything to the expense Of
clcrkships, readable and authentic Journal Of the
State Legislation would be secured to the Public
Archives and the newspapers throughout the
country, inste I'd Of the awkward, unreliable matter
which now passes for that
The coming session, will. without doubt, be
usually interesting, because the Debates, win, in
great measure, be upon the war policy OF the Pres
idcnt, and the ways ami means Of restoring the
Union to what il was; and the BREvrER REPORTS
will be- as it has been for years past, the only source
from which reliable reportss'f the Debates Of the
Legislature can be Obtained.
