• Zanesville.; July 20 Two fine companies of lT. S. infantry, be lor.giag to the l'Jth Rcg’t. marched from tins place on Friday last, under command of cap tains Henry Northup and Alexander Hill.— They will proceed to Cleveland, from whence they will embark for their ulterior destina tion. We learn from Dr. John Hamm, Marshal for the district of Ohio, that he has received instructions to march the prisoners of war now at Cliilicothe, to Cleveland, from whence they will be conveyed to Erie and delivered up in exchange: And that those prisoners who were closely confined as hostages, are to be placed on the ordinary footing of prisoners of ■war, and are a'so to be sent home. These movements we understand are predicated on a similar course pursued by the British gov ernment; from w hich we are induced to be lieve the retaliatory system will be abandon ed or at least much reduced hi its threatening aspect. Alt nenger. Chit.icot.kk, July ltf. On Saturday evening lust, all the trn< ps en camped in t)lus town and neighborhood, to"the amount of about 3 or *100, hx,k up their line of inarch for the north. The British prisoners left this place at the same time for the lines. A'rrdoiti'u}?. , By a letter from Detroit of the 10th instant, we learn that the expedition, destined for Mac kinaw left that place on the 4th. The Bower of the north-western army is along. .V most desperate resistance is anticipated. Id. Dayton, Jul> 11. By an express from Greenville on the cv t - ning of the 6th insc. we are informed that all the regular forces from that place arc to be immediately withdrawn, their serv ices being thought no longer necessary. Two ride com panies are now on their march, intended as a guard to the public stores—all the other troops iliat li ivc been called out are dismiss ed. The number of Indians there assembled, is supposed to be about five thousand, or more Nk w-Yon k, (noon) July 23. On Thursday mor .ing, orf Watch-Hill, the privateer ULTOK, of BuUirnorr, from Niw ilcdford, was attacked by one of the enemy’s launches and a barite. The former made li.*i* escape, hut the barge, with an officer, and 8 men, was captvcd. The officer was found dead, having been shot through the head,— The corpse was landed at Stoni.'gton, and the prisoners were taken in the Ultor to N. Lon don. Arrived, sloop Henrietta, prize to the pri vateer (Jen. Armstrong, captured on the loth inst. The Henrietta formerly belonged to N. York, and was lately a tender to the British * squadron off Boston. When captured, she was bound to the Chesapeake, with provisions for the squadron there. Saw the Saturn and a frigate in the effing. We learn from undoubted authority, that the London Times, from which our extracts were yesterday copied, is edited by Marquis Wellesley and Mr. Canning—the outa of the ministerial party ; or what would be called in this country, quids. They have no influence with the present ministry in England, and would urge the adoption of any measure that would be likely to render them unpopular. Y. Cuz. Portland, July 21. F.ASTPONT TAKIi.Y. ' fry an arrival from Marinas on Tuesday last, we have the capture of Eastport confirm ed,. as follows: 'On Monday 11th inst. a British squadron under com. Hardy, consisting of 2 ships, 4 brigs, and 2 schooners, made their appearance off Eastport, standing in under a press of sail with a fresh breeze, and in half an hour came too ofl’the town, and sent in a flag with a de mand to the officer of the fart to Surrender— the reply is said to have been given, “ that the fort should be defended f.gaihst any force whatever”—that the British gave ten minutes for a reconsideration of that determination ; the officer in the mean time ascertaining that the inhabitants Were not disposed to contend against the British forces, ordered his flag to be struck, and his men, said'to be about "0, with the U. S. property, were Liken—private property, (very tiuturully) in this case, was untouched. We are informed that 30 sail of vessels, of which the above squadn n was part, sailed from Halifax a short timesince ; the remain tier passed to the westward after parting with them. JR. Argus.

We have had, for two or three days past, reports as various as the features of those who circulate them, respecting the movements of the enemy. All that can be relied on is, that the vessels of tlie enemy have been pursuing their accustomed vocations of plunder and r;i pine on both sales ot the Potomac. The mili tia, under Gen. Stuart, had a few long shot at them on Saturday or Sunday, and are sup posed to have killed somo men in tile barges. I he last exploit we heard of, was stealing 50 hhds. of tobacco from a warehouse at the head of St. Clement’s bay. We had authentic in formation last evening, that every vessel of the enemy had gone down the river below Blackstcrie's Island, probably in search of plunder elsewhere. * Nat. Li t. Norfolk, July 26. A stranger on visiting this place and sur \ eying the vast Ik. extensive additional works lately erec ted in front of the* town, would pro bably he astonished to hear that the whole was completed in somewhat less than a fort night ! yet such is the fact—Since Gen. Por ter has assumed the command of tills post, he has been indefatigable in his exertions to place it in the best possible state of defence— Ilis zeal, indefatigable industry and talents, has, we think, effectually accomplished this ncsirabic object.—We have no inclination to follow the “ blue light” practice of enumera ting the force and describing the fortifications which defend Norfolk, (ostensibly for tiu* in formation of our readers, but really for the in formation of the enemy) and therefore ex cuse ourselves from entering into details— The general impression is, that Norfolk is safe. , Adjutant General's Office, Norfolk, July 25, 13M.

He was told their force was greater than I made it, and that they intend ed to lay the country waste —that the*? who remained at home, would be treated well and their property respected, but ail who fled* or joined (he militia, should Ijecome the peculiar objects of their vengeance. To several-old nee roes too, they stated, that fhey soon ex pected a much larger force, 45c that'thcy would not leave one house standing in the Northern Neck, or one hostile foot. They told them moreover that they burnt Mrs. Thompson’s houses, because she left them and because she placed poi sorted spirit ia her porch.

Cockbume, whom I. found to be the commander on board the Al bion 74. “ The subject of the poisoned spirit was the first to which he directed his conversation, & it appeared to have made a considerable im pression on his feelings. He remarked with much propriety on the horrors of such a mode of warfare, was glad to understand fron/von tliut you received it in the same light, and alluded to the suggestion in vour communica tion, that I was possessed of tacts which would repel the imputation. I remarked that the character of Virginians was a strong assu rance that none of them could be found so base as to practise means so vile. That the particular facts which you had directed me to state to him, were—That the spirit had been brought out bv Mrs. Thompson for the refreshment of a Gentleman who had gone to her house upon the approach of the barges, of which he drank.—That when the forces landed, Mrs. Thompson hurried from her house leaving the spirit, glasses, ike. standing ollt—That you and some other officers enter ed the house as she retired, meeting her at the gate, & discovered the liquor, of which you all partook— That you continued there until the nearness of the forces rendered it un ill remain—i nai upon retiring, some of the company, and I believe yourseif, again drank—-1 hat it was quite impossible, in the short interval between vour leaving your house, and the arrival of the British at it, that any poison could have been infused in spirit. I learnt that the name of the person, charged with the fact, was an individual in your regi ment, named John ( rabb. I tohl him you were not advised at the time you wrote vour communication, who was the person chai ged “-That although not particularly instructed by you to say what course you would yet take, I telt no hesitatation in saying, that as a Vir ginian, and nr. Officer, you would feel equally interested to institute a rigid examination in to the aifair—such as should be satisfactory to him and to the world.—He alluded to a similar occurrence in Maryland, as having excited a suspiciousness of such practices. I could not forbear remarking, that the honor able and prompt manner in which an individ ual had come forward on that occasion, to ar rest the futal effects, was a strong assurance of our abhorrence of the means, and that they woubi not be practised or Countenanced. He had stated that the information had come from a pt iwinrr, hut could not tell of ,vli.it description. 1 observed, that I had learnt on board the Al bion, since mv arrival, that a negro had given the information.—That it would he hard if credit were given to such testimony, to fix an imputation upon our people, which, for the honor of human nature, was almost Incredible. That it was very probable that a slave in the moment of his liberation, might wish to excite as angry . nd vindictive a spirit, as possible, in the bosoms of the enemh-u to his former mas ters ; and that no suggestion w ould be more effectual than the one under consideration._ He said he knew not before that it was a pri soner of that description, and sent an officer to enquire in the w ml-room, if it -Vis known what prisoner had given the information.— 1 lie officer returned and said, that the officers stated, they received the information, or heard it as Cuming from a negro.-«*The Conversation concluded upon that bject with mv ejrprct «.i:jg my readiness anJ my wi4’, to receive a* iv information from him, which r uthl a A jtl in investigation.—Mi.
