Our Indians . —Wc have received authentic informa tion, which enables us ro af lu:e our readers that the in-' dians who lately assided in defending Black Rock from the attack ot the Britiih, conducted themselves in luch away as to reflect: great ho -1 ni-r upon themselves and to i put to (li.Ane the enemy’s boaiF of their iuperior hu manity. The Indians bro’t in a -number of prisoners without injuring a hair of their heads. Not a tingle indance of tomahawking or fcaiping occurred, although i frequent opportunities tor both were afforded. A Bri tiih officer, capt. Sanaers, ' was (hot down by an Inui- ; an, who advanced towards him, and the captain was in j momentary expectation or ! being tomahaw N. vd. Intlead i of which the Indian com- ! miferated his fufferings and ! passed on. The grateful captain is determined to re - ward the tawny native by a fuitablc present. Christi ans ! Men ! Americans ! Compare this conduCt of the untutored savage with that of the civilized, humane, magnanimous British on hoard the Chesapeake, and at Hampton, draw you own conciufions. The brave major Chapin has again diftinguithed hur»- felf and his valiant Corps, by eroding to the othei d te and capturing two British officers and some privates. The captain of the Prince Regent is one of his prilon ers. The gallant major is j differently rewarded by dsr- I Jerent people. The fede- | ralifts, particularly at Bloom- ! field, that neit of torics and : B.itisn officers represent him ; and Ids company as a man - j rauding plundering banditti who have no other object but private gain. It 13 said j that the major has been re cently expelled from the Washington Benevolent So ciety ot Buffalde, for his ex- j eriions in defending his country, his fire-fiJe, and j his property. This is all ! ri^hr. On the other fide the j major ha", received the es teem, applaufeand gratitude • of everj friend to his couo try, and rve have no doubt will speedily meet the hon orable notice of the govern ment. VVe (carcely know j whether lie is mure honored ■ in receiving the approbation of his country or the cxecra- 1 c . J lion ot us enemies. In the late attack on Black !

The Hamburg hers are to be fevcrely mu ; bated for their Coffac din ners. The S wed ah treaty is another proof of tbc pro liigacy of the Britiih govern j merit and its allies. With out consulting or even men j tioning the matter to the j court oi Denmark, the Ruf fians and bweiieb agree to ; take from the Danes the ; whole ot the kingdom of Norway. The English go vernment have negotiated a Lan for 52 millions tter i h»g, equal to twu hundred I &nd thirty-one millions of aol~ \lars, for the current year, yet their fricads in this country clamor our O government for having bor rowed twenty /even millions , within a year, not 1 10th as much.—Let it be remem bered that up to our lufeit London dates, the Enfihih government had not been invited to the continental negocu.ions for peace.

THE CREDIT OFTIHiGOY E !< N M E N T • In a debate the other day on the Salt bill, Mr Han son whose life was spared by the humanity of the peo ple to kill and maim wh un iie had provided “ ll igs, j fwivcls and lathing hatch- J ets,” this Mr Hanson touk j occasion to lay that the tax J fcherne was intended a> a Baud on the public credit ; ors; tuat there was no in - | tention to lay them ; that ! the money lenders would i fae through the artifice and | thus the public credit would entirely fail. Mr. Bibb, who in the re ; gretted ablence of Mr. 1 fippef, lias aded as chair man of the committee ot \ 1 Ways and Means, said that ! as to Hanlon’s oblervations j he should not trouble him fdf to reply, but he would . observe that the Loans al-! ready obtained, tho’ matter | of the highett gratificaiion 1 to every true American, had j become more so, becaufe l 1 obtained in spire of a most treacherous opposition : But so found was public credit that 5 ,000,000 of dolhu 8, ! could be had, at tint mo ; cnent, within the dittridt of Columbia. Mr llanfon got up and I hesitatingly Loitered out an 1 attemptat denial. Mr. Bibb, without noticing the rude ‘ ness ©f Hanlon, said, “ I “ converted latt evening with j ** a man who has come pre i “ pared and ready to make | and tultill the cowtradt.” Hanson with all his effron tery locked abaflied and lu:ik down, riot merely in to iiis chair, but noarly un. der the desk in tho vain hope of hiding himfclf. Tne denials of his aflertions ; & the mortitications heaped up"n this man's h.-ad have : been more than 1 thole which have befallen a ! ny man on his entrance into { public life ; the hopes i which had been excited by 1 hu puffing himfclf off in hi.- own paper, have all been I blatted and of hi.n it may ’j be truly Lid he role hke a rocket and has fallen hk« the (lick-— ib % Buffaloe, July 27. Since our last paper there has been frequent lkirmnhes in the neighborhood of Fort George—foraging parties & ihv picket guards have been repeatedly attacked; in one ' of thole affairs the enemy’s 1 loss was very serious; 60 or 1 70 are said to have been kil led. Sunday evening a can nonading was heard in the direction of Fort George. Ihe pickets ol the enemy are within fight ot ours be yond the light house, near toa place where oar troops landed on the 27th May. Tnree ot our armed fchrs. 1 have arrived at Fort Niaga- I ra, which brought up oe twee 1 two and 300 Jailors, who passed here on Friday latt, to enter on board com modore Ferry’s squadron at Erie. Ic is laid that the Bi in 111 fleet have gone into Ringiton, and that our flee is n >vv cut This probably is only a manoeuvre ot the enemy to get our fleet uivi dtd, fj that they may take it by peacemeal.

New -L on Jon , Aug . 1 I think in my latt I men- ! ti ned the fafe return of the | ur g es lent off by lore Decatur. I have liuce learnt particulars which I relate. i'ho object of the expedition, 1 underitand, was to taice a captain of one of their rhips, and other of- I fleers whom, it is laid, I lodged on lliore at Gaidi- I ner a liland. for this pur -1 pole they started on Monday ! lad. Xu the night the boats j Separated, and three of them [ went to Stg Harbor ; and | the other in the night land. led at Gardiner’s llland. la | the morning they found j thenilelves within teach of the guns of the Rimilies. and deemed it necedary to ; tpait their boar. Inc cre'v j conning of a midlhipman and live or h*: men, imme diately proceeded to Gardi ner s home, where they louud the firfi and third i lieutenant, the failing mas- rer, and live men of the Kamilies. The tnidfhip tr*an *1 entering, the lieutenant that he and his corps were Americans, and they were his pnfuners, | and that he had his cho-'ce | to go with him to thr i American squadron. The ! lieutenant at firft hesitated ! but being told that he mud anl wer him immediate ly, the lieutenant conclu ding I fuppofc, that he had a number of men befi ies on the iilund, considering it j mod prudent lor himfelf and men to be paroled, wiiiJi they did. I hey then left the hvvuie; finding them selves fufficicntly strong, took the boat belonging to our men, and went off to the Rimdies. Our men took a whale boat from the ilhnd (it being impossible to return at that time, the enemy were lo situated) and started for Sag Harbor ; but soon difeovered thay were puriued by n birges from she enemy. The militia, however, prevented their landing there, and protected the barges. They all darted in the right together, passed the enemy and arrived fafe. Aoguff 2.
