British dominions roused with shouts
of triumph ?. Not because the power
of France was materially checked, or
likely to be materially curtailed, for the
rival forces did not altogether number
3000 men. But because an enemy,
supposecHnvincible, was discomfited.
Or when Lord Nelson expired in a
burst of glory at the battle of 1 rafalgar,
why did London ring with acclama-
tions? Not for any substantial success;
for that bloody victory was really at-
tended with no such result : but be-
cause it was a victory. When then an
American frigate vanquished a British
frigate, on the threshold of a war for
maritime rights, when her officers and
rew not only vanquish, but transcend
the lord of the ocean in seamanship,
skill, bravery, gunnery, in all the na-
val attributes theretofore arrogated as
the exclusive attributes of the British
navy; when, after thus subduing, the
American convoys his conquest home
over the high-way of nations, usually
so infested by British pirates, that
the day’s adventures can scarcely be
minuted without their interruption, and
when thus arrived in America, the peal
of national victory is to be sounded,
why should not the notes be swelled to
the uttermost ? The national effect is
inestimable. Two nations are taught,
the one that her gigantic naval power is
not impregnable, the other that her di-
minutive naval power is essentially a-
vailable against that gigantic naval pow-
er. It in a lesson of national sufuriori
ty—so delightful to America to learn,
so degrading to G. Britain. It teaches
her that the battle is not to the strong,
that she cannot harrass the trade of this
country, and man-steal her mariners
with impunity- It will teach he r to re-
gret the pres m \y. r, and to beware
how she provokes another. It has be-
fore now taught Mr. Canning that
others have been added to ‘ the only nar
val trophy’ he laments. It will thun-
der in the ears of those infamous mi-
nisters who would sustain a nation on
■piracies, that the rights of man are a-
blt to cope almost unarmed against the
^enormous superstructure of impress-
^ merit and aggression, for ‘ thrice is he
armeu who hath his quarrel just;’ and
in Vain will one thousand ships, with
one hundred thousand prisoners, coop
ed up.within their ribs, contend with
. halt a dozen fought by freemen volun-
teers. Ami does not such a parade as
that of yesterd .y teach lessons to ‘ m< -
ricans as well as to the enemy? It
speaks volumes which those who run
may read. 1 o the army, the unlucky
army, it proclaims the honors and ova-
tions awaiting those, who, like Decatur
and his comrades, humble the haughty
tone of the foe. It assures them that
the cavalcade and tfo welcome home a-
wait all who distinguish themselves in
their country’s cause. Lastly, its in-
fluence is not less perceptible on tin
community at large. While Commo
dote Decatur was escorting into his na-
tive city, cravn in a chariot and four,
surrounded by all the military ‘ pride,
pomp and circumstance’ of Philadel-
phia, ail parties, ostensibly at least,
seemed to vie with each other in patri-
otic exultation. No bickerings, no ca-
vils, no lines of partiznn demarkation
It was one of those occasions when fac-
tion skulks at home, and patriotism a-
lone appears abroad. When the carri-
age passed the Merchants’ Coffee
House, an immense concourse join d
in cheering their gallant guest. For
the moment the orders in council, and
all commercial speculation were forgot-
ten ; while every shout seemed to re-
peat the Commodore’s manly toast,
* Free trade and no impressment.’ A
few such touching commentaries on the
intolerable wrongs the U States have
taken up arms against, would put to
shame the remnant of disaffection, and
drown its last croaking in the music of
national jubilee.

DIED,
At Champlain, on me 22d Nov. of a pleurv
sy, occasioned by fatigue and exposure oh th
march from Plattsburgh, Capt. Richard Cald-
well, of the 25th reg. U. S. infantry—Ute of
the County of Change. Ever zealous ip the
discharge of duty, he resolved, notwithstand-
ing jyshght indisposition, to share with his
companions in arms, the toils and dangers * f
the path which was to conduct them to action
and to glory. He sunk under the effort. Es-
teemed by his brother officers, beloved by his
men, he fell in the prime of life; and genuine
sorrow mingled with tire last sad honors over
his grave. In him the country has lost a meri
torious officer, society an honest man. Hospi-
table, generous, honorable in his sentiments,
and upright in his dealings, his memory will
long be cherished in the hearts of his acquain-
tance and friends. His infant children are alone
unconscious of the loss which their widowed
mother will never cease to deplore.
ANOTHER BATTLE.
Pitsburgh, January 30.
By a gentleman of respectability
just arrived in town, we have received
tiie following important intelligence.
Handbills had been issued at Chillicothe
nnouncing the particulars in a letter
from general Harrison to governor
Meigs. Our informant had one of the
Handbills in his possession, hut had
p-.rted with it before his arrival here. It
stated that—-
On the 18th inst. advanced troops of
the K ntucky volunteers, commands d
by col. W Lewis, at th Fiver Raisin
had attacked a party of British and In-
dians—that the British had fled on the
approach of col. Lewis, and carried off
their cannon, leaving the Indians to
fight the battle. The action commenc-
ed at three o’clock, P. M. and lasted
for an houraod a half. The loss on our
side was ten killed, and twenty wounded,
among the latter, two captains. Gen.
Winchester had despatched 1000 men
to the aid of col. Lewis, who had arrived
within a short distance of the field of
action. The loss on the side of the
Indians was considerably more than
ours. They fled with precipitation.
New- York, February 4.
Mr. John Griswold, in the Packet
irom Bermuda, informs, that Captain
Porter, in the United States frigate
Essex, while cruising on the Lipe, cap-
tured a British Packet from Rio Janeiro

captured, and had arrived at Bermuda.
