At St. John’s they have been under noapprc henfion of an attack troin them, though every measure had been taken by Sir James Wallace to give them a warm re ception, Ihould they have the folly to attempt it.

They had been into St. Pierre’s, and had burnt the church and govern ment-houle, which had been left stand ing. BOSTON, November J.
