ATHENS GAZETTE. fTnvJiSDAr, Aijcusr 11, 1814. A Out columns of this week will be £)und to contain some intefesting ar ticles of news from different quar ters. It would appear that reinforce incuts to a large amount are arriving at Quebec* and proceeding up the country* to the aid of Gen. Kiall a- M gainst Gen. Brown, and to other pla ces. Gen. Brown’s situation is be coming critical Sc hazardous With out reinforcements, and Without the speedy and effectual co-operation of f the fleet under Com*.Qiau-ncey, the the late victory at Chippe tray may be lost y v ” If, the enemy’s fleet be out, as it Is reported,sanguinary conflict be tween Chauncey and Yeo, may soon be expected, ‘ the result of which will be all important to bbtft belli gerent, and will determine, for a while at le,ast, the fate of the war ijU Upper Canada. We learn from passengers in the Steam Boat Pakagon, arrived this forenoon from Albany, that on Mon day last, the British squadron, under Bii James Yeo, was oif Sachet’s Har bor, waiting-fo/* Commodore Ghaun* <jey to rooie out.— tWo schooners with troops which had been sent to reinforce General Brown’s army were chased back to the harbor by the enemy. v ! Three thousand troops had embark •d at Montreal, to • reinforce Gen. Rial Tat Niagara. Oc ncrul Izard’s situation at Chazy, is aaid to be critical. He had sent all his heavy baggage to Whitehall, bead of Lake Champlain, Letters dated at Sackett’s Harbor, <Sn Monday, states that Commodore Chauntey was to sail the next day * but are silent as to the appearance of Sir James off that place. There fore, if the above verbal account ris Orue, it must have come by some oonveyatiee later than the mail. Amongst the passengers ‘in the Steam Boat, are M. Hush of Phila delphia, and sister.
