” Launch of the frigate

i Philadelphia June 21
Yesterday afternoon, about 15 min-,
utes past 4 o’clock, the United States’
Frigate Guerriere, Commodore Rod
i;eis, was launched into the element
oi which, we trust, she will hereaf
ter be an ornament.
The novelty of such a spectacle, ad
ded to the high estimation our little
navy has attained, attracted the atten
tion of upwards of fifty thousand peo
ple, who assembled on the shores of
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, and
in the S earn Boat, shipping and
small craft—almost literally cover
ing the river Delawarevin the vicini
ty pf Kensington, amid whose uccla
inutions, this elegant ship glided
most handsomely into the river—and
we are happy to add, not the slight
est accident occurred to mar the plea
auies of the scene. k £
Fair. I/oven, June 14.
Yesterday morning we were alar
-1 tned by the appearance of the British
liyig Nimrod, with / barges with fietv
i:’. mned from the 74 now lying at the
entrance of Quick’s Hole—the brig
was at clay-light about 4 miles from
tiie Garrison, the barges pulling to
wardsher, having fas we supposed )
during the night been vimhin gun shot
of the fort—About $ o’ciockj she bore
up the bay, and as we supposed was
bound to Rochester.. We therefore
.with a party of men, proceeded with
a small cannon to assist the citizens’ “
pud prevent a landing, but the brig
bad come to anchor, and manned 6
burges'With about 150 men, who pfro
ifeded to Wareham where they ar
rived at 12 . o’clock and destroyed
1- or 13 sail of vessels, among them ’
anew ship and brig—they set fire to j
the factory, and left it soon, when ■
the people assembled and put it out
—they took 20 or 30 prisoners,,
whom they carried to the mouth of
iU€ river and then released them
tYe last night expected an attempt
on this place and,Ne w Bedford, and
were prepared af all paints to receive
them ; they approached about I i o’-
clock, when they were discovered by ,

drew and returned to the brig, wmch !

About three oefo&k yesterday
Tnoniiugurv express riachcd tljis city
jM>»» the Patuxent, bunging authen
tic lwteHigence that the enemy were
again ascending that river, in twelve
dr fourteen: barges, and had arrived
as high as >Jje village of Benedict.
‘j he express brought ietlS(§rs to the
secretary ot war from gentlemen at *
Nottingham requesting assistance.
In com di.mce with this request in
ductions were immediately issued
to general Van Nese, and in an hour
he necessary orders were distribu
ted. It gave us much pleasure to
witness the same degree of promp
titude and alacrity on the present oc*
oasion. as have heretofore distin
guished the militia of ttys district.
At ten o'clock. the fine companies ut
Georgetown Artillery ahd Riflemen,
under their respective captains, Pe
ter and Stullthe Georgetown Dra
goons, the troop of captain Thornton
of Alexandria, and that of captain
Caldwell of this city ; amounting in
all to about two hundred and eighty
mm, were in complete readiness to
march, and soon after departed for
. the PatuXen*, the whole under the
command of major George Peter.
We learn that the enemy have
pursued the same system of barba
rous warfare, that was commenced
“last summer under the notorious
Gockbilrn. They have burnt many
dwellings and plundered a number of
families on the shores of the Patux
ent.
The force which marched hence,
yesterday morning, is, in conjunction
with the troops already in that neigh
borhood, deemed adequate to stop,
the progress of the incendiaries and
drive thent back ; but, if, not, there
are hundreds of other brave men in
this district who are willing to march
at an hour’s notice, to the ajd of
their iellow citizens.— Nut Intel . r

RAVAGES OF THE ENEMY.
> < ,
By a gentleman direct from the
neighborhood of Barney's Flotilla 2c
the British squadron, who arrived
here last evening, we have the most
destressing accounts of the situation
of the inhabitants of that section of
Maryland—A brig of 12 guns and 15
barges were as higtyupthe Patuxent
on Thursday as Benedict—-the bar
ges had progressed to Nottingham
a considerable distance above Bene
dict. He states that a number of
Houses were burnt by them, and
other enormities committed—among
those were one belonging to capt.
M ikall, and one to Mr. Broom—On
crossing the ferry at a place called
Pig Point yesterdsy morning he
hiraseif saw the barges at Notting
ham and smoke issuing from a house
Which he was told belonged to Gen.
Bowie, and it is probable the, whole
village is burnt—A Tobacco ware
house has been burnt by them on
the St. Mary’s side of the Patuxent
containing a quantity of Tobacco.
He represents the destress of the ci
tizens as extreme—the woods and
roatls full of women and children
flying in all directions from their
homes. The’ British lay all night
before last off Lo||er Malbro.
