I think hoover that imperfect as it may be, it is Sufficiently demonstrative of their value, to establish a correct judgment of the estimation and importance which the.answer has fixed it at.Ilere it is in GENTLEMEN,-1 am sensibly gratified by your affectionate address, and the proof which 1 now receive of the yirmnesj and constancy of your SCntimcntSrrespectingThe measures I have pursued the true houbr and best interests of the empire the preservation of His Majesty\u2019s «erritory, and the protection of his subjects committed tomy care, You do me but justice in observing my entire devo tion to my important trust ; my best reward consign to your happiness and attachment; nor do I think these effects are to be separated from the gracions approbation of my royal Mastery which you kindly wish me to possess.\u201d .This last part of the conclusion of the answer y nor do I think &c.\u201d has been thus expressed in the French translation,\u201c et je ne croispas que ces effets puissent exister sans que il eh resuite cette gtacieuse approbation de mon Souverain què vous me souhaitez-d\u2019une maniéré si obligeante.You will perhaps be surprized to see that Ï have particularized thatanrirer ; by inserting the French of the last paragraph of its conclusion.I hope that after reflecting on the Subject, my reason for ; will appear founded, and that you will urled a résolution, of the èonmmtçe,' that it* s expedient to renew.the.provisions of two révérai acts for.facilitating'the circulation of Army Bills.in circulation to the sum of two millions currency, which, being agreed to, a bill was presented conformable to the said resolutions ;

and it was resolved to consider the-said hill to a Committee, of the whole house tomorrow.The committee to whom were referred the petitions of P-.Casgrain, Esqr.Jacques Morin and others, relating to the,building of a bridge over the Rivièie Oaelle, reported their opinion on the said petitimis, and it was ordered to take, the same into consideration in a committee of the whole house on Tuesday next.Saturday, 18\u2014An engrossed Bill to grant a salary -to the.Speaker of the lloase of .Assembly, was read a third time, passed and ordered to the Legislative Council.A Bill to establish a House of industry in the.city of Montreal was brought in and read for the first time, and ordered to be read à second time on Monday next.A' Petition of sundry inhabitants of the town and disfict of Three Hivers, requesting an amendment in the Judicature Act in as-much as concerns the district of Three Uiv argil!, AAil inèiitj VC i,v tr-.r <,1.taaeir rctre.U.j an ami-iynij, alurm.Nu (inupa it ey though, it.tpii,iet time to qua a pusiiiou ita which so little rest Coulai be round.Ï uih advised by Major Overton, who coinitiand.at Fort St.Philips, in a letter of the Ititla, tlaat ihe enetuy laaving bombarded his tort for 8 or y day, from 13 inoh mortars without etfect, had, on tj,e morning of that day, retired.I have little doubt that he would bave been able to.have.unk their vessels had tlSey attempted to run by.Giving the proper weight toalj these eoesidertr-tions, i believe you will not think me too sanguine iu the belief tnat Louisiana is now clear of its ew*-my.I hope, however, I need ,i0, assure vou, that wherever I comiaaiul, such a belief ^hall never occasion any relaxation in the measures tor resistance.I am but too sensible that the moment when the ene-is opposing us, is not the im;«t proper to provide them.1 have the honor to he, Ac.ANDREW JAt\u2019KSON.Maj.Gen.Comdg.P.S.On tlm 18lh our prisoners on shore were de-iiveied to us, an exchaiige hâviag been previously agreed i«\\ Those who are on Lourd the fleet will be delivered at Peut Coquille\u2014alter winch l shall suil have m niy hands wh«|ain additiorial Dattes, reported amendments to the same, which were agreed to by the these cases do not exist, we must seek for, the plausible pretext that could have excited them;

and on the following day after taking possession and paroling' the militia of Isle Motte, I caused a battery of three long eighteen pounder guns to be constructed for the, support of our position abreast of Little Chanj, where th£ supplies for the army were ordered to be landed, The fleet came up on the 8th inst but for want of stores for the equipment of the guns, could not move forward until the ! 1 th al daylight we weighed, and at seven were in full view of the enemy's fleet, consisting of a ship, brig, schooner, a d une sloop, moorcQ inline, abreast of their encampment with a division of five gun-boats on each flank : at 40 minutes past seven, after the officers commanding vessels and the flotilla had received their final instructions as to the plan of attack, we made sail in order of battle.Cap-tain Downie had determin'd on laying his ship ath* wart-hause of the enemy's directing, Lieut.M'Ghee of the Chub to supportive in the Linnet, in o-gaging the brig to the right, wnd Lieut.Hicks, of the Fine# with the.flotilla of gun-boats ; t.o attack the schcon&r and sloop on the left of the enemy's line.At 8 the enemy's gun boats and smaller vesset* commenced a heavy and galling fire on our line j-at 10 minutes after 8 the Confiance having two anchors shot away from her larboard bow, and ihe winC baffling, was obliged tu anchor (though not in the situation proposed) within two cables length of her adversary ; the Linnet and { 'hub soon afterwards took their allotted stations, something short of that distance, when 'the crews on both sides cheered and commenced a spirited and close action ; a short limé however, deprived me of the valuable services of Lt.M'Ghee, who, from having his cable#, bowsprit and main-boom 9hot away, drifted witlirn the anemy's line, and was obliged to surrender.From the light, airs and smoothness of the waLw the fire on each side proved very destructive from the commencement of the ngageme-nt, and with the exception of that of the brig, that of the enemy afm~ peared united against the Confiance.After wo hours severe conflict with our opponent, she cut har cable, run down, and look shelter between the ship and schooner, which enabled us to direct nur fire a-gainst the division of ihe enemy's gun-boats and ship^.which had so long annoyed us during our close engagement with the brig, without any resistance on our part; At this time the fire of the enemy's ship slackened considerably, having several of her guns dismounted, when she, cut her cable and winded her larboard broadside to bear on the Confiance^ who* in vain, endeavored to effect the same operation ; at 33 minutes after }0, I was much distressed to observe that the Con fiance struck her colours.whole attention of the enemy's force then became directed towards the Linnet ; the shattered and disabled slate of the masts, sails, rigging and yards, preclude cd ihe most distant hope of being able to effect an escape by cutting her cable ; the.result of doing s% must in a few minutes have been her drifting along sid'-the enen ys vessels, close under our lee ; bul in the hope the flotilla of gun-boats, who had abandoned the object assigned them, would perceive our wants and come to our assistance, which would afforB a reasonable ptospect of being towed, clear, I determined to resist the then destructive cannonading of the whole of the enemy's fleet, and at the same time despatched Lt.II.Drew to ascertain the state of the Confiance.At forty fve minutes after ten I was apprized of the loss she had sustained by the death of her brave commander (whose merit it would he.presumption in me to extol,) as well as the great slaughter which had taken place on board; and observing from the manœuvres of the flotilla that t c.ouId enjoy nq further expectation* of relief, the sit-f nation of my gallant comrades \\oho had so nobly fought, and were now fast falling by my side, rfe-.' mande à the surrender of his Majesty's brig enirusteB to my command, to prevent a useless waste of valuable lives, and at the request of the surinvèig qffi* cers and men, J gavo the painful order for the cj>~ lours to be struck.Lieut.Hicks, of the Finch, had the moriificatitHfî to strike on reef of rock-.;, to the eastward of Crab island, about the middle of the engagement, which prevented his rendering that assistance to the squnl~ ron, that might, from an officer of such ability, have' been expected.The misfortune which this day bcfel us by capture, will sir, I trust, apologise for the lengthy detail which, injustice to the sufferers, I have dsemod necessary to give of the particulars which led to it ç and when it is taken into consideration that the Con-t fiance was 16 days before on thi stocks, with, an ng-organized crew, composed of several drafts of me* who had recently arrived from different ships at Quebec, many of whom only joined the day before., and were totally unknown either to the officers or to each other, with the want of gun-locks, as well «s other necessary appointments not to be procured in (htt country, I trust you will feel satisfied of tf^e decided advantage the enemy possessed, exclusive of their great sup eriorily in point of force, a cowparatiup statement [the account of t]ie.British force has tint been transmitted'] of which I have the honor to annex.It now becomes the most pleasing part af my duty to notice to you the determined skill and brave* ry of the officers and merlin this unequal contest i but it grieves in.e to states that the loss sustained iu maint fining it has been so great\u2014that of the enemy* I understand amounts ta something more than th* samt number.'The fine style in which Capt.Doscajc conducted the squadron into aciion, amidst a tremendous fire* without returning a shot, until secured, reflects the greatest credit to his memory, for his judgment and coolness, as also on Lieutenants M'Ghce and Hick* forlso strict y attending to his example and instruct tiens : TAcfr own accounts of the capture of .pocit'd ves&e\\ as ti-vd u* ikat^ of fAeut^RoSert*-tiio succeeded tè the command of the ÔonJianvSy S°*U, Ifzzl assured, do ample justice to the merits ^flh&ccrs and men serving under their immediate 0^4^ ;

wherefore, one may suppose that the peace has met with some obstacles.In our columns we have given the Conditions of the treaty as stated by the Editor of the London Globe, from which oui readers will draw conclusions perhaps not very favorable to tire knowledge of that gentleman, nor to his talents ' as a .Satirist.What can he mean about onr being allowed a communication from Quebec to Upper Canada?Surely bemistahes this for tin, loud insisted upon by ministers between Halifax and Quebec, which cuts off a part of tile province of Maine.We are equally at a loss to comprehend him when he tells ns that ottr Indian allies are to be left on the same footing in which they were in 1812 ; that is exposed to butchery by the.Americans, after the Royal word had been pledged that their inlerests would be included in any treaty that might be made with the American Government ; we cannot, we will not believe this ; it carries absurdity on its face, & what is a thousand times worse, a violation of national honor.In this number, amid a mass of information we have made room for the important letters of .Sir George Prévost, bird.L, Yeo, On Thursday Evening about 9 o\u2019clock, a tire broke out in the Malt Kiln of .Mr.J.,M.Goddard, Junior.Quebec Suburbs, near h;s Majesty\u2019s Wood Yard.The.Kiln and\u2019 Brewery being wooden buildings the greatest \u2019possible exertions could not save them from total dest-uction.\u2014in less than an hour Mr.Goddard lost his all! supposed to amount to £'2000 including a fine Stock of Barley, This is a Catastrophe which we record with heart felt puin.A most industrious man with a wife and nine Young Children (8 of whom are daughters] are reduced to poverty., It is buta few days since Mrs.Goddard was delivered of'i'wins.Could a more distressing pictuie be well, conceived I We a,e happy to understand that two gentlemen are àbylit collecting something for the immediate relief of the sufferers;

and to see our gun boats -seeking their safety in flight.This unhekedfor event depriving me Of the cooperation of the fleet, without which Che farther prosecution .of the service was become impracticable.I did not hesitate to ar-ratt the course of the troops advancing to the attack, because the most complete success would flat cheat unavailing, and the possession of the enemy\u2019s works offered ho advantage to c ompen-yate fur the loss we must have sustained in acquiring possession of them.On the 5th, it halted within right miles of this place, having surmounted the difficulties created by the obstructions in the road,from the felling of trees, end the removal of bridges.The next day, the, division moved upon Elatts burg;
