- General Note:
- The Berbice gazette, published in New Amsterdam, Berbice, began between 1804 (Berbice gazette, December 7, 1901, page 1) and 1806 (Proceedings of the American Antiquarian Society, October 1918, page 285), depending on the source consulted, although there is reference to a newspaper located in New Amsterdam by this name in a letter dated May 7, 1805 (Kort historisch verhaal van den eersten aanleg, lotgevallen en voortgang der particuliere colonie Berbice, gelegen in het landschap Guiana in Zuid-America, 1807). Nicolaas Volkerts is often credited with establishing the Berbice gazette, however he was publishing the Essequebo and Demerary gazette in Stabroek, Demerara (now Georgetown, Guyana) until 1806, when he lost his status as the government printer to his former partner, then rival, Edward James Henery, publisher of the Essequebo and Demerary royal gazette. Volkerts remained in Demerara until July 1807, making it unlikely for him to have been the original publisher of the Berbice gazette. By 1813, the newspaper had been sold to William Schulz, who would oversee publication of the newspaper for the next two to three decades. In 1822, the title of the paper was briefly changed to the Berbice gazette and New Amsterdam advertiser, before becoming the Berbice royal gazette and New Amsterdam advertiser, a few months later. Around 1837, the name of the paper was shortened to the Berbice advertiser, which only lasted until May 1840 (Journal of the Statistical Society of London, July 1841, page 125). The discontinuation of the Berbice advertiser may have been a result of a libel suit against the then publisher John Emery (Legal observer, or, Journal of jurisprudence, November 9, 1844, page 19). Whatever the reason behind the cessation of the Berbice advertiser, it was soon after replaced by another iteration of the Berbice gazette, started by George A. M'Kidd around 1841. Sometime between 1846 and 1858, the name of the newspaper changed to become the Berbice gazette and British Guiana advertiser (The Creole, March 6, 1858, page 1). Publication was suspended for a few months that year but returned in December 1858 as a weekly newspaper with a new publisher, John Thompson (The Creole, December 11, 1858, page 2). Thompson returned the name of the newspaper to the Berbice gazette in 1877 and continued to publish it until his death in 1879. Charles Edwin Hooten purchased the newspaper and ran it for the next 8 years, until falling into the hands of its final publisher, William MacDonald. The Berbice gazette published its final issue on March 29, 1902.

NEW AMSTERDAM,
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 11, 1813.
X
Sunday last our Packet came inhere with the Mail for
October, the English Papers brought by the Mail, go
to the list of that month.
The affairs of war in the North of Germany, are almost almoststanding
standing almoststanding the same as w s have stated by our September mail.
The Dispatches from the Marquis of Wellington, an.
nouncing the entrance of the Allied army into the French
territory. The Park and Tower guns were fired upon
the receipt of the intelligence, and a letter from Lord B.
hurst was sent to the Lord Maj or, stating the substance
of the dispatches.
It will beseen from the official detai's, that the left of
the army, led b Sir T. Graham, crossed the Bidassoa on
the 7th, and ut and
above Andase, those on the Montag*e \ erte, od on the
height of Mandale, taking 8 pnees of cannon. Sir T
Graham having thus established the troops withii the ,
French territory, resigned the comma d to Sir J. Hope,
who arrived from In land on the precceding day.
Whilst these operations were going on on the left, tie
enemy’s entnnchments in the Puerto vie Vera, and on th®
mountain called La Rhiini 1 , were also attacked, by the
light division, and a body oi Spanish troops, the former
of w hich took officers and 400 nun prisoners, and 3
pieces of cannon. These troops carried every thing h».
fore them till the) arrive at the foot of the rock upvn
which the henaitag? stands, and which they found it im impossible
possible impossible to ascend. The next morning I.ord Wellington
ordered au attack oh the enemy’s works in front of ihe
camp of Sarre, a.id an entrenchment on a hill which pro protected
tected protected the right ot the r amp having teen carried, the cue.
my immediately cvacuand all their woiks to defend tha
approaches to the c.’tnp, and withdrew from their post at
the Hermitage, and from the camp of Sarre during the
night.
I he loss of the British and Portuguese in these affairs',
was 81 I killed, wound-d and missing ; and of the Span Spaniard-,
iard-, Spaniard-, about 750.
WAR DEPARTMENT.
Downing.street, Oct. 18, 1813.
Captain the Earl of .Marclj arrived this morning with a
dispatch from Field. Marshal the Marquess of WeHington,
addicssed to Earl Bathurst, one of his M ijvsty’s princi principal
pal principal Secretaries of State, of which the following is a copy.
Eezacn, Oct. 9, 1813.
My Loro, — ITavi’gdeemed it expedient to cross the
Ijid.issoa with the left of the army, 1 have the pleasure to
inform your Lordship that object was elkcteJ on the 7>h
instant.
Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thomas Graham directed the Ist and
sth divisions, and the Ist f’ortugueae brigade, under Bri.
gadier-Gen U ilsoii, to cross that river in three column*
below and in one above the site of the Bridge, under the
command ot Majoi-tien, Hay, ihe Honourable L'olouel
Greville, Major-Gen. the Honourable Edward Stopford,
and Major-Gen. Howard ; and Lieut.-Gen.’ Don Manuel
Frey re directed that |rart of the Ith Spanish army under
his immediate command, tocrossin three columns at fords,
above those al w hich the allied British and Portuguese
troops passed. The former were destined to carry the
eueiuj ’s entrenchments about and above Andaye, while
the latter shoo'd carry those ou the Montagne-Verte, and
on the height ot ?ilan;iale, by which they were to turn the
enemy’s left.
1 he operations of both bodies of troops succeeded in
every point. The British and Portuguese troops took
seven pieces of cannon.in the redoubts and batteries which
they carried, and the Spanish troops one piece of cannon
in those by them.
I had particular satisfaction in observing the steadiness
and gallantry of all the troops. The 9th British regiment
were very strongly opposed, charged with bayonets more
than once, and have suffered ; but I am happy to add, that
in other parts of these corps our loss has not been severe.
The S| anish troops under Lieut.-Gen. Don Manuel f
Freyre behaved admirably, and turned and carried the
enemy’s entrenchments in the hill, with great dexterity
and gallantry ; and I am much indebted to'the Lieut.-Gen.
and to Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thomas Graham, and to the Ge General
neral General and Stall Officers of both corps, for the execution of
the arrangements for this operation.
Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thornas Graham, having thus establish,
ed, within the French territory, the troops of the Allien
British and Portuguese army, which had been so frequently
distinguished under his command, resigned the command
to Lieut.-Gen. Sir John Hope, who had arrived from
Ireland the preceding day.
While this was going cn upon the left, Major-Gen. C.
Baron Aiten attacked, with the light division, the enemy’s

Os the w hole corps engaged under Marshal Ney, only
six teen thousand men have escaped, ten thousand have ar arrived

It is also stated, that the new guards, and particularly
the artillery, suffered dreadfully in the battle by Dresden ;
Generals V achot and Scibier were killed ; and Generals
Dumoutier, Dental, Gros, Boieldieu, Maison, Veeii, and
Aubert, severely wounded.
Reinforcement amounting to sixteen thousand men have
reached Erfnrt; but they are of a bad quality of troops.
On the 15th, in the evening, the enemy brought up
more troops against Count Palilen, and as it was not the
intention of the Allies to engage in a general affair in the
mountains and defiles of Saxony, the advanced corps mov moved
ed moved back to Nollendorf. The French had two corps
d’armce supporting their advanced corps of twelve.thou twelve.thousand

Gen. Blucher’s last accounts were from Bautzen, and
his advanced posts at Weiskelurch, within a German mile
'of Dresden, and he is in close communication with the
Prince Royal’s army.
Gen. K leinau’s corps is at Marienberg. A considerable
corps of the enemy are at Freyberg, and a corps of their
cavalry between that and Nossen.

Prague, Stpt. 19,1813.
My Lord, —It appears that the enemy on the 16*h oc occupied
cupied occupied the mountain and heights in front of Nollendorfi',
in considerable force. They made, in the evening, an at attempt
tempt attempt to turn the right of the Allies before Culm, while
they also assailed the centre and left,
Bonaparte seems to have assisted in person at this affair.
Fifteen thousand men were detached to turu the right,
eight thousand advanced in front and on the left: about
thirty thousand men and eight thousand cavalry in reserve,
formed the attack on the part of the enemy.
On the 17th, the corps moving on our right, being con concealed
cealed concealed by an intense for, and, advancing through .thick
w oods, hadaucceeded in gaining our flank before its move movement
ment movement was perceived. W’hile ths enemy forced the Russi Russians
ans Russians and Prussians from the village of Nollendorf by very
superior force, but were kept in check on the left, Gen.
Jerome Colloredo, with a corps of Austrians, fell on the
enemy’s advanced column, which had gained our right,
and with an intrepidity, steadiness, and order that has
gained universal admiration, completely defeated it, took,
between two and three thousand prisoners, among whom
is the General of division Kreitzer, and many officers, and
ten guns: our loss may have beeu about one thousand
killed aud wounded.
At lhe time the enemy made their attack on the centre,
the Prussians were about to' be relieved by the Russians,
which occasioned Some momentary disorder. A very fine
young man a son of Gen. Bliidier, who was distinguishing
himself very gaf.'antly in re-establishing ord. r, was killed.
The enemy, repulsed at all points, retired into their po position
sition position again on the mountains, occupying, however, Nol.
leudorf. The allies took up their old ground, and extend
.across the plaih in a semicircular position.
The continued affairs and skirmishes during the last fort,
night have cost many men on both sides; but there can be
no doubt of thb euemy having suffered in at le£st a dou double
ble double proportion.
It is stated as a positive fact, that Bonaparte had his
horse shot under him while reconnoitring on the hi I.

the affair of the 16 h and 17th.
I have the honour to be, &c.
(Signed) CHAS. STEWART, Lieut-Gen.
Tbsn foilow a report from Col. Cooke, detailing the
.Mime circumstances as mentioned in Sir Charles Stewart’s
dispatches, and two Austrian military reports to a similar
efiyct, dated Toplitz, Sept. 15th and 17th.
Oct. 18.—Sir John Hope arrived at head-quarters on
(he sth inst. Sir 'Thomas Graham is to gj home in the
President, and may be daily expected. The stute of Patn Patnplona.was
plona.was Patnplona.was considered as nearly desperate. Thegairison
w as desirous of sending out all the inhabitants of .the tow n
to save provisions; but the besieging Spaniards refused
passage to a single individual, and at the same time gave
notice to the Governor, that if the rations of provisions
were not fairly distributed to the tow n’s people, as well
as the garrison, quarter w ould not be given to the troops
on its fall. Suchet had arrived and taken the command
of the French army in the room of Soult, who had gone
to the Northern army.
We have stated, that the Minister would necessarily re require
quire require ten millions of money before Christmas, and that
most serious doubts had arsen as to the means of obtain obtaining
ing obtaining this sum. To have issued Exchequer bills to this am amount
ount amount would have been vain, for there is at present np de demand
mand demand for them in the market, and the inconvenience of
the quantity already issued is most seriously felt, since
the duties are now to a great degree, paid in Exchequer
Bills, which bring no money into the public coffers. To
raise it by a Loan would seriously interfere with the ways
add means for the next year, and would also create the
necessity of imposing new taxes, wfiich Government must
be convinced would be unproductive. An attempt is
therefore to be made to raise money on the Continent for
our Allies; that is to say the Courts of Austria and Prus.
sia are to be allowed to draw bills on this country, bear bearing
ing bearing interest, and made payable six months after the peace,
w hich bills, it is thought, may be negotiated abroad, or
may be paid to the persons who provide necessaries and
stores to the Allied armies instead of money. Upon this
proposition we shall only say, that if we could bring Bo Bonaparte
naparte Bonaparte to the extremity of issuing paper payable six
months after the peace, we should indeed consider his case
as desperate—( Morning Chronicle.)
In the papers of yesterday, it is said that letters from
the French coAst state, thas owing to the pecuniary em embarrassments
barrassments embarrassments of that Government, it was in contempla.
tion to itsue a paper currency similar to our Exchequer
bills. The fact is, (.hat bills of this description were cir circulated
culated circulated in France nearly six months ago, to the extent of
50 millions of francs.

bec Quebec and Montreal Papers have also heen received to the
24th of August, at w hich period Sir George was actively
employed in counteracting the preparations making by
tqe Americans for another invasion for another invasion

and proceeded to York, in consequence, ft was believed,
of secret intelligence that the enemy was upon the point of
making some important movements, to relieve his block,

from this Ma*ion and Kent Island the ships' barges enter,

with a competent force, and having proceeded to the towns
of Chester, Cambridge and Oxford, has sent detachments
to Easton and Centyville. In most of these situations,

and abundance of cattle and other provisions was obtain,

We Understand that the Capt. of the Packet was
in possession of a London Paper of the Sslh, which
contained the details ofthe capture of Pampeluna, by

Whilst these operations were going on on the left, tie enemy’s entnnchments in the Puerto vie Vera, and on th® mountain called La Rhiini 1 , were also attacked, by the light division, and a body oi Spanish troops, the former of w hich took officers and 400 nun prisoners, and 3 pieces of cannon. These troops carried every thing h». fore them till the) arrive at the foot of the rock upvn which the henaitag? stands, and which they found it impossible to ascend. The next morning I.ord Wellington ordered au attack oh the enemy’s works in front of ihe camp of Sarre, a.id an entrenchment on a hill which protected the right ot the r amp having teen carried, the cue. my immediately cvacuand all their woiks to defend tha approaches to the c.’tnp, and withdrew from their post at the Hermitage, and from the camp of Sarre during the night. I he loss of the British and Portuguese in these affairs', was 81 I killed, wound-d and missing ; and of the Spaniard-, about 750. WAR DEPARTMENT. Downing.street, Oct. 18, 1813. Captain the Earl of .Marclj arrived this morning with a dispatch from Field. Marshal the Marquess of WeHington, addicssed to Earl Bathurst, one of his M ijvsty’s principal Secretaries of State, of which the following is a copy. Eezacn, Oct. 9, 1813. My Loro, — ITavi’gdeemed it expedient to cross the Ijid.issoa with the left of the army, 1 have the pleasure to inform your Lordship that object was elkcteJ on the 7>h instant. Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thomas Graham directed the Ist and sth divisions, and the Ist f’ortugueae brigade, under Bri. gadier-Gen U ilsoii, to cross that river in three column* below and in one above the site of the Bridge, under the command ot Majoi-tien, Hay, ihe Honourable L'olouel Greville, Major-Gen. the Honourable Edward Stopford, and Major-Gen. Howard ; and Lieut.-Gen.’ Don Manuel Frey re directed that |rart of the Ith Spanish army under his immediate command, tocrossin three columns at fords, above those al w hich the allied British and Portuguese troops passed. The former were destined to carry the eueiuj ’s entrenchments about and above Andaye, while the latter shoo'd carry those ou the Montagne-Verte, and on the height ot ?ilan;iale, by which they were to turn the enemy’s left. 1 he operations of both bodies of troops succeeded in every point. The British and Portuguese troops took seven pieces of cannon.in the redoubts and batteries which they carried, and the Spanish troops one piece of cannon in those by them. I had particular satisfaction in observing the steadiness and gallantry of all the troops. The 9th British regiment were very strongly opposed, charged with bayonets more than once, and have suffered ; but I am happy to add, that in other parts of these corps our loss has not been severe. The S| anish troops under Lieut.-Gen. Don Manuel f Freyre behaved admirably, and turned and carried the enemy’s entrenchments in the hill, with great dexterity and gallantry ; and I am much indebted to'the Lieut.-Gen. and to Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thomas Graham, and to the General and Stall Officers of both corps, for the execution of the arrangements for this operation. Lieut.-Gen. Sir Thornas Graham, having thus establish, ed, within the French territory, the troops of the Allien British and Portuguese army, which had been so frequently distinguished under his command, resigned the command to Lieut.-Gen. Sir John Hope, who had arrived from Ireland the preceding day.

While this was going cn upon the left, Major-Gen. C. Baron Aiten attacked, with the light division, the enemy’s entrenchments in thp Puerto de Vera, supported by the Spanish .division under Brigadier-Gen. Longa; and the Man. seal det Campo Don Pedro G iron attacked thqeneiuy’s entrenchments and posts on the mountain, called La Rhune, immediately oh the right of the light division, with the army of reserve of Andalusia. Colonel < 'borne, of the 52d regiment, who commanded Major-Gen. Skerrett’s brigade, in the absence of the Major-Gen. on account of hi* health, attacked the enemy’s right in a camp which they had strongly entrenched ; and the 52d regiment, under the command, of Major Mem, charg d in a most gallant si vie, and carried the entrenchment with the bayonet. The Ist and 3d cacadores, ami the 2d batlalion 95th regiment, as well as the 52d, distiu. guished themselves in this attack. Major-Gen. Kempt’s L igade attacked by the Puerto, where the oppwH'ion was not so severe; ami Major-Gen. Charles Aiten has'reported his sense of the judgment dis. played both by the Major-Gen. ami by (Joi. Colborne, in these attacks ; ami I am particularly indebted to Major. Gen. Charles Aiten for the manner in which he executed this service; the light division took twenty.two oilicerand four hundred men prisoners;, and three pieces ot cJn; . non.

Sir Charles Stew K.B. his Majesty’s Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the King of Prussia. Prague, Sept. 17, 1813 My Loan, —Allhough nothing very material has occ 1. iru in this quarter since my last dispatches, I take advantage of an opportunity that oilers to state to your Lordship a few particulars that may be interesting. On the 13th, Gen. Count ,Bubna, who n;,w‘ commands the Austrian corps lately under Gen. Neipperg, which has been much reinforced, entered Neustadt and Neukirchen, and came into close communication with Gen. Blucher, who had his head-quarters at Hermshut, with his advanced posts beyond Bautzen, the enemy having retired to Bishottswerder. On tiie 14th, in the morning, the advanced posts of the grand aruij advanced again to lite frontiers by tae road of Peterswaide. The rear guard of the enemy, consisting of (wo battalions of infantry, a regiment of cavalry, and some guns, were forced from Nollendorf by Count i ah.en, commanding Coujit Wittgenstein’s advance.

Bonaparte assisted personally at the grand reconnois. sauce that was made on tht lotii: he had his fieauquarters at Leibstadt on the 11 th, and moved forward on tne left of tiie Allies to Barenstein, near Altenburg, on the 12th. Ine plan of the enemy seems to have been lo have attacked the Allies, if he could do so with ait evident advantage, 11 not, to impede their ativauire, and by men .ces gam time either to extricate himself from thedaugei ot;s ju edicamint in which he stands, or to manccuviu the Altus out ot their position.

An Austrian corps of seventeen thousand men, under Count i. -.dloredo, equally reconnoitred the enemy on the -ide ol Bureiistcin ami ivreitcnau. * Joe head-quarters of the enemy, according io report, were mm icnioved to Dippuldswattle. G< i>. i ni.-Ivmaii’s partizan corps, w hich I have already im' -t oind to your J,ordship, has had considerable stsc' -m's. lie took possession of (he tow 11 of V\ eisscnfels, * ioc li wasoccupi d by it fauliy and artillery, and made a Gencialj forty officers, and near one thousand three hundred men prisoners. I’he Austrian Colonel Mensdorf,another partizan, took i French courier, between Lcijizick, and Dresden, charged with dispatches and letters from the French army for Paris, at least five thousand in number. 1 hese fetters give the most doleful details of the French army ~ and of their defeats. The w hole are to be printed, and arc in the most desponding stile. Os the w hole corps engaged under Marshal Ney, only six teen thousand men have escaped, ten thousand have arrived at Dresden, under Oudinot, the rest at Wittenberg and Torgau. It is also stated, that the new guards, and particularly the artillery, suffered dreadfully in the battle by Dresden ; Generals V achot and Scibier were killed ; and Generals Dumoutier, Dental, Gros, Boieldieu, Maison, Veeii, and Aubert, severely wounded. Reinforcement amounting to sixteen thousand men have reached Erfnrt; but they are of a bad quality of troops. On the 15th, in the evening, the enemy brought up more troops against Count Palilen, and as it was not the intention of the Allies to engage in a general affair in the mountains and defiles of Saxony, the advanced corps moved back to Nollendorf. The French had two corps d’armce supporting their advanced corps of twelve.thousand men. Gen. Blucher’s last accounts were from Bautzen, and his advanced posts at Weiskelurch, within a German mile 'of Dresden, and he is in close communication with the Prince Royal’s army. Gen. K leinau’s corps is at Marienberg. A considerable corps of the enemy are at Freyberg, and a corps of their cavalry between that and Nossen. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) C. STEWART, Lieut-Gen. Prague, Stpt. 19,1813. My Lord, —It appears that the enemy on the 16*h occupied the mountain and heights in front of Nollendorfi', in considerable force. They made, in the evening, an attempt to turn the right of the Allies before Culm, while they also assailed the centre and left, Bonaparte seems to have assisted in person at this affair. Fifteen thousand men were detached to turu the right, eight thousand advanced in front and on the left: about thirty thousand men and eight thousand cavalry in reserve, formed the attack on the part of the enemy. On the 17th, the corps moving on our right, being concealed by an intense for, and, advancing through .thick w oods, hadaucceeded in gaining our flank before its movement was perceived. W’hile ths enemy forced the Russians and Prussians from the village of Nollendorf by very superior force, but were kept in check on the left, Gen. Jerome Colloredo, with a corps of Austrians, fell on the enemy’s advanced column, which had gained our right, and with an intrepidity, steadiness, and order that has gained universal admiration, completely defeated it, took, between two and three thousand prisoners, among whom is the General of division Kreitzer, and many officers, and ten guns: our loss may have beeu about one thousand killed aud wounded. At lhe time the enemy made their attack on the centre, the Prussians were about to' be relieved by the Russians, which occasioned Some momentary disorder. A very fine young man a son of Gen. Bliidier, who was distinguishing himself very gaf.'antly in re-establishing ord. r, was killed. The enemy, repulsed at all points, retired into their position again on the mountains, occupying, however, Nol. leudorf. The allies took up their old ground, and extend .across the plaih in a semicircular position. The continued affairs and skirmishes during the last fort, night have cost many men on both sides; but there can be no doubt of thb euemy having suffered in at le£st a double proportion. It is stated as a positive fact, that Bonaparte had his horse shot under him while reconnoitring on the hi I. 1 enclose a detailed report received from Col. Cooke, of the affair of the 16 h and 17th. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) CHAS. STEWART, Lieut-Gen. Tbsn foilow a report from Col. Cooke, detailing the .Mime circumstances as mentioned in Sir Charles Stewart’s dispatches, and two Austrian military reports to a similar efiyct, dated Toplitz, Sept. 15th and 17th. Oct. 18.—Sir John Hope arrived at head-quarters on (he sth inst. Sir 'Thomas Graham is to gj home in the President, and may be daily expected. The stute of Patnplona.was considered as nearly desperate. Thegairison w as desirous of sending out all the inhabitants of .the tow n to save provisions; but the besieging Spaniards refused passage to a single individual, and at the same time gave notice to the Governor, that if the rations of provisions were not fairly distributed to the tow n’s people, as well as the garrison, quarter w ould not be given to the troops on its fall. Suchet had arrived and taken the command of the French army in the room of Soult, who had gone to the Northern army. We have stated, that the Minister would necessarily require ten millions of money before Christmas, and that most serious doubts had arsen as to the means of obtaining this sum. To have issued Exchequer bills to this amount would have been vain, for there is at present np demand for them in the market, and the inconvenience of the quantity already issued is most seriously felt, since the duties are now to a great degree, paid in Exchequer Bills, which bring no money into the public coffers. To raise it by a Loan would seriously interfere with the ways add means for the next year, and would also create the necessity of imposing new taxes, wfiich Government must be convinced would be unproductive. An attempt is therefore to be made to raise money on the Continent for our Allies; that is to say the Courts of Austria and Prus. sia are to be allowed to draw bills on this country, bearing interest, and made payable six months after the peace, w hich bills, it is thought, may be negotiated abroad, or may be paid to the persons who provide necessaries and stores to the Allied armies instead of money. Upon this proposition we shall only say, that if we could bring Bonaparte to the extremity of issuing paper payable six months after the peace, we should indeed consider his case as desperate—( Morning Chronicle.) In the papers of yesterday, it is said that letters from the French coAst state, thas owing to the pecuniary embarrassments of that Government, it was in contempla. tion to itsue a paper currency similar to our Exchequer bills. The fact is, (.hat bills of this description were circulated in France nearly six months ago, to the extent of 50 millions of francs. Dispatches arg received from Sir George Prevost, Quebec and Montreal Papers have also heen received to the 24th of August, at w hich period Sir George was actively employed in counteracting the preparations making by tqe Americans for another invasion for another invasion of Caaada. He had himself quitted Kingston on the 17th, and proceeded to York, in consequence, ft was believed, of secret intelligence that the enemy was upon the point of making some important movements, to relieve his block, aded force in the neighbourhood of Fort George.

Letter* have been received from Halifax to the 14th of fast month, and it is said on this authority, that the Brit, ish squadron under Admiral Warren, had taken posses, •ion of Swan Island; which had been fortified, and both from this Ma*ion and Kent Island the ships' barges enter, ed Chester and Choptbank rivers; they were provided with a competent force, and having proceeded to the towns of Chester, Cambridge and Oxford, has sent detachments to Easton and Centyville. In most of these situations, such stores as could not be carried oft' were burnt, and and abundance of cattle and other provisions was obtain, ed. We Understand that the Capt. of the Packet was in possession of a London Paper of the Sslh, which contained the details ofthe capture of Pampeluna, by storm, on the 9th. The loss of the Allies in this affair, is stated to amount to nearly 600 men. By the arrival of the schooner Caledonia, in Barbados, accounts from the United States to the 20th Oct. have been received. The position of General Proctor at Amherstburg having been rendered critical by the capture of our flotilla on Lake Erie, he had commenced his retreat, after having burnt the fort and all the public buildings, which were very extensive. On Lake Ontario five small schooners with provisions for our troops in the neighbourhood of Fort George had fallen into the hands of the enemy. 1 ~— • ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ — MARSHALs OF FICE. Sales by Execution.
