CHAUNCEY,s RUNNING FIGHT

Copy of a letter from Con- Chaun- cey to the Secretary of the U- s. Navy dated-U. S. Ship General Pike off Niagara, Ist Oct. 1s1S).
 At Is minutes before 3 p. m. I very reluctantly relinquished the pursuit of the beaten enemy-the reasons that led to this determination was such as flatter myself that you will approve they were these:
 At the time I gave up the chase, this ship was making so much water that 1t required all the pumps to keep her clear lowing to our receiving sev- eral, shots so much below the water edge, that we could. not plug the holes from the outside); the Governor Tom kins with her formast gone, and the squadron within six miles of the head of the lake blowing a gale, heavy sea on, and every appearance Of the Equinox
 considered that if I chased the enemy to this anchorage at the head of the Lake, I would be obliged to an- chor also, and though we might 4suc- ceed in driving him ashore, the prob ability was that we should go on shore aIso-he amongst his friends, we amongst our enemies, and. after the gale abated, if he could succeed in getting off one or two vessels of the two fleets. it would give him as com plete the command of the Lake as if he had twenty vessels, moreover he sFasf covered at his anchorage by a part of his army, and several small batteries thrown up for the purpose Therefore, if we could ride out the gale, we should have been cut up by their shot from the shore, under all these circumstances and taking into view the conseQuences resulting from the loss of our superiority on the Lake at this time. without hesitation relin- ouished the opportunity then present. ed and of acquiring individual reputa- ton at the expense of my country
 The loss sustained by the ship was considerable, owing to her being so long exposed to the fire of the whole of the enemies fleet, but our serious loss was occasioned by the bursting of one of our guns, which killed and wounded 22e men, and tore up the top gallant forecast1e which rendered the gun }upon the deck useless We had four other guns cracked in the 1nuzzle, which rendered their use ex- tremeIy doubtful.
 Our main top gallant st was shot away in the early part of the action, wounded, rigging and sail much cut up and a number of shot in our hull several of which were between wind and water, and 27 men killed and wounded, including those by the bust ing of the gun
 The Madison received a shot but no. person on board was hurt The Gov ernor Tompkins lost her foremast and the Oneida her main top mast badly wounded.

 ROWDIES IN EAST BRIDGEPORT
 A gentleman in East Bridgeport : writes us that riotousness and rowdy- ism are practiced to an unusual and ! often to an alarming extent under the present administration of our govern ment
 Among the most recent occurrences, i he states that on Friday evening last :; a man named Ellis, when returning home from a friends house in Penn broke street. was attacked by two men and beaten and battered with brass knuckles to such extent as to near ! ly deprive him of his sight and render his recovery doubtful.
 And again, on Sunday night, he says about twenty persons, armed with sticks and slaves, paraded Pembroke and other streets, shouting and yell ing and making night hideous, to the terror of the whole neighborhood and all who came in their way.
 The last occurrence took place be- tween six and seven in the eVening g and yet there was neither police nor watchman in that section. In con- clusion. he asks if it is not the duty S1 the City Fathers to interpose and see that peaceful citizens are not again disturbed. It certainly is time stop was put to the actions of these ! roWdies.
