MIRItOR OF THE TIMES.
NEIV-TORK , October i.
Latkst from Halifax.
Lad evening arrived at
this port, the ship Mer
chant Noves, in ten day’s
| from Halifax,. having been
Tent in by a Biitifh cruizer
on her palfage from Liver
i pool, and liberated on pay
j ing charges.
By the arrival of the Mer-
I chant, we learn verbally
that the (loop of war Co
\ quette, had arrived there
i with defpatches from Eng
land, and had failed again
| for England with Gen.
Brock’s Aid, who was the
bearer of the colors of the
4th regiment taken at De
troit, and Gen. Brock’s dif
j patches relative to the fur
; render of Hull.
News of the capture of
the British frigate Giierriere
by the Constitution, had
reached Halifax.
The Africa of 64 guns ;
Junon, of 44 and (loop of
j war Tartarus were at Hali-
I fax.
Sir John Barlase Warren
had not arrived at Halifax
but was daily expected with
7 fail of the line and 12 fri
! gates..
Capt Noyes did not bring
any Halifax papers.
1 Sir James Yeo, alias Taboo.
The very polite and cour
teous challenge which this
! flower of chivalry has given
to capt. Porter, of the
Eflex, has induced one of
j o\ir correspondents to look
! into the hiftory and origin
j of the hero of Southampton
and he has been lucky en
nough to trace out the flock
and lineage of this valorous
knight. Should our cap
; tain Porter,* have even a
drawn battle with him, <t
would be honor fuflicient
for a Yankee Captain of a
Yankee frigate, to have ap
proached within • fin ell of
bia veflel and crew. The

London, July 25.
American Stater. —A se
cond American war seemed
to be all that was wanting
to complete the round ol
adventures in this juvenile
reign and this it feeins we*
have now got. It was
very hard to persuade peo
ple that America would de
clare war. I begged of the
Regent not to liflen to those
who affected to laugh at A
merican hostility. I told
him, 'in lo many words,
that w# lhould have war,
unless we redressed ' the
grievances. that America
complained of. Scarcely
any body could be prevailed
upon to believe this; but
it is come true, it seems, af
ter all. The Anti-jacobins
will not believe me j they
delpife tny warnings , and
they pay fyr it in the end.
Not only thi public, but
the government, in England
.wholly dilbtlieved that the
Americans would go to war.
The truth is, that there are
so many newspapers in En
gland, whose foie purpose
is to deceive the public,
that the wonder is, that any
truth, at all ever gains gen
eral belief. ' There has,
however, .been an extraor
dinary degree of obltinacy
as ta the real intention of
America with regard to war.
Nothing could induce peo
ple .to befieve that flic
would go to war: I asser
ted and proved, as I thought
that it’was naturally to be
expected’tharihe would go
to wn/, unless we did away
the orders, in ‘ council, and
allb the imprelsment of A
merican learned ; but icarce
ly a foul would believe.—*
Perhaps, it rray-be good for
theTcaulc of freedom that I
was not believed ! But, let
us now quit the pa It and
look a little to the future.
MONDAY, October *l9, 1812.
j What will take place now ?
Ihe letter or pretended
letter,.from Liverpool, un
der the date of the isch in
llant, would make this chea
ted nation believe, that, the
moment the news arrives the
quarrel with America will
be at an end. It will be
bell, however, to let the
' letter speak for itfelf:—«• I
have to advise y u, that a
pilot boat is arrived here to
day from New Yo.k, which
lhe left on the 23d ult.
bringing an account that
the Senate, alter deliberating
fevenJlay's, had come to
the resolution
war againll Great-Britain,
19 to 1 3. An exp refs had
arrived at New-York to
major Bloomfield, which
he read at.the head of his ar
my, formally announcing
that rhe United States had
declared war again il Great
Biitain. I think it proper
to add, however, that the
houles in New-York which
di(patched the pilot with
this information, for the
purpose of making fpecula
tiona in produce, expressly
ordered that, Ihould the or
ders in council be revoked,
their friends here were on
no account to make any
purchases for them. This
jis a. convincing proof that
thi& declaration of war will
..be ifhort liv.ed, and on the
arrival of the Gazetre, con
taining the revocation of the
orders in council, all matters
in dispute will be amicably
fettled. The Mackarel
fehooner had beendifpatch
ed from New-York by fl/Jf
Foiler, direct to Fal.notith
the day before the pilot boat
failed. When the Senate
came to the refulution of
declaring war the acccun'
of Mr Perceval’s death had
not reached Waliington,
but was known at New
York.” Thus a new fdfe
hood is to be set on foot.—
We are now to believe, that
f ht declaration of war, is to
havenocflect. Tillnowithas
been asserted, ditlinctly as
serted that the Senate had
rejected the proposition for
war; This as the reader
well knows, has been dated
moll ditlinctly, with all the
circumstances attending the
fact. It was not only as
- that the Senate had
rejected the proposition,
but the number of the ma
jority againll the motion was
given to this deceived, this
cheated,this insulted nation.

of the* 17th inllant, was pub-
following para
