Tbursdat , Novemher 10, 1814. From the lasr Northei n Mail we derive no news ot much..import? xice. The last dates Ctora Ontario, state thr ,t Generals Brown and Sr formed aju jetion, and that a battle With Drummond w: daily expected——That the British fleet was ©ut, and that Chauncey waning to giv e it a suitable reception in backett s Harbor. The result of these con fitetsby land and *- a ter, so deeply interesting tip both nations, probably soon be ktfown. The follow- flg extract of a letter from a number of tb t Legislature of this state to the fcaitor of Augusta Chronicle, exhibits «tis% objects contemplated by the % w Milledge?Me, Oct. 29. * “ ,s day finishes the second week of the * CSs>l ° ,) of the legislature, and not more busi *iess ione than ought to have been done in wnc *eek. The great and weighty measures V»* us by his Excellency toe Governor, ** .he Ojietxingof this session, has been much * nbarrassed l>y a disagreement between the Vjehate and the House of Representatives, as to the suojec matter sought to be referred to la joi.it Mitirary Committee. We have just «mei*ged from this embarrassment, and a hill vmbr icing such principles as a»e considered ne cessary to organize and govern detachments ot militia, will to day be reported to the legis lature. It »s Contemplated by that bill, that J&c oujor and brigadier-genetals tg Uetaclrrh'nts staJl tlvt g iveruor; the colonels and majors, by the governor, adjutant general, and the officer ap pointed to command the company offi cers are to be appointed from the line by the general and held officers, and specially com missioned by the governor. The bill, also, contemplates, the consolida tion of the volunteer infantry, cavalry, and nrt» corps, whenever the government may deem it expedient. The voluuteer infautry, when consolidated, is to be officered by a se lection of officers attached to the different com panies composing the consolidated company. Ttie cavalry may be called into service as mourned infhnrry. In adapting rhis law to the U. .va.es* law, it has become necessary to create a full colonel, second and third lieu tenants For the purpose of putting Savannah, St, Mary’s and the intermediate points on the In land navigation i.i a state of detence, the House of Representatives have passed a bill, appropriating'considerable of money for forti fications {and block houses ; but whether ei ther of those bills will pass in their present form, cannot now be ascertained. The sum appropriated for Savannah, is 45500, Dollars exclusive of 12 0(10 dolls, advanced by the gov ernor before the legislature met—lo,ooo dols. are appropriated to St Mary’s, and 1000 dols. to each block house to be erected. A bill granting a charter to Messrs, M'&inneand Shukz for their bridge opposite Augusta has passed the Senate, and now before our House. A bill, has also passed the Senate continuing in force the \lievia r ing Law without altera tion, but we felicitate ourselves on there being a constitutional majority m that the passage of the law should the governor refuse his assent. We are hopeful that the representative branch will at least give a cor responding vote. , v. His excellency yesterday, received a letter from col. Hawkins stating that, considerable cannonading had been heard at the Agency, > in a southwardly direction and that one hund red and eighty reports were distinctly heard, and that the detachment from this state, should he. pressed on with speed to gen. Jackson— The letter also states, that the Semenoles have been committing some outrages; and that there is good reason to apprehend they will soon be on our frontier. By a respectable gentleman just arrived from Tennessee, we learn that in addition to the troops already forwarded to the aid of €ren*Jackson, five thousand more militia are about to he embodied in that state,, and seat on as soon as practicable. , A bill has passed the Hjouse of Represen- - sentativea of the United Stages, to contin■ the Direct Tax and to enffrease it a ho^- per cent. x * 5235R5S . : . , s >VvtlU!t; Nov. 1. last iniand, from the south* w * tt b 25 sail of vessels with crates, dry fcooJs, wine, ht The xpress-bnat which left the light-houaft after three o’clock yesterday, reports a British iligate and brig close in with the bar.

A letter from Sackett’#* Harbor from the commissary of ordnance-cfatetfthe 19th, states “no news “ Nothing new by the western mail last night. A gentleman arrived here yesterday in the Steam Boat, who left Sackett’s Harbor on the ldth inst. and reports, that the enemy’s fleet was off the Ducks,,but had not sailed; that the large ship came oyer the bar, and then took her guns on board; that an expedition; was fitting out at Kingston, destination un known; that our fleet Weret moored in Sack ett’s Harbor, excepting the Sylph and Jones* which were employed as lookout vessels—*hat Sackett’s Harbor was considered perfectly safe ; that 10,000 militia had arrived there as a reinforcement to the regular troops; and that about three hundred sailors had reached the Harbor from Lake Champlain, and about 100 more were within a few miles of that place. During the whole of this month the weather had been remarkably fine ; there had been no snow, and very little ice.
