Extraftofa letter from Charles Martin,
esq. pofi'-maHer at Waterford, Erie coun
ty, to a vent!ewan in London, dated De
cember 3.
“ Judson and Ifaao Barren arc just recur
ned from Detroit. They bring bad news
from that place--that the Indians are gath
ering in force and threaten Detroit with a
second conflagration. _ The people are in
great alarm, and turning out to arms in eve
ry direction. If they had not come away
the day they did, they would have been en
rolled in the militia next day."
BALTIMORE, December 24.^
' An unfortunate difference prevails in the
territory of Upper Louifiann, between the
Governor and (Gen. Wilkinfoa) and the
judges (Lucas and Eafton) of the gcaera!
court. It seems the governor had com
nii.firmed James L. Dnnaldfon, Efq.* as
diftrift attorney, but he was refuted to be
recognized by the court, after repeatedly
procuring his commission. The Grand Jury
took the matter into confideralion, and re
monftiated against it ; and have likewise
brought forward a charge against one ot the
judges (Ea-xon) for swindling particularly
in the case of a poor man by the name of
David Fine, residing near the river Merri
mack, who lias a wife and teven children,
and whom, the said judge Eafton did (fay
the grand jury) “ some time in the month
of May lad, being then a judge of the terri
tory of Louisiana, under the most fraudulent
pretence obtain from, a deed for about 600
acre* or land without gmog him any con
fideraticn for die fame." When the court
found that the grand jury were going on to
examine witpdtes to eftabiith this fraud c
gainfi Eafloo, they ordered the jurors out
of a convenient room wherein they fa*-, and •
compelled them (21 in number) to fit “ ia a
room of dimenlions scarce fufficient to con
tain their bodies, being no mere than n
feet by 8 and an half feet. “ Some of th«
jurors aofnalld fainted in this confinement.
It teems it was owing to a detection of
Eafton's nefarious praftices by general Wil
kiufon, that the court was so inveterate
againfl: his appointment of a diftrift attorney.
The harfti con Just of the court to the jury
however, did not break the spirit of the
latter, who have pubiifhed a full repretenta
tion of the whole affair to the world.
