THE WK STERN SUN
Jlli 15, 1809.
The proceedings from Harrifon, Si. CLii
county, Illinois Territory, in celebration
ot tlit birth day of American Independence
have been received, and (lull be attended
to in our next.
A report having been circulated by Eli
as M'Xamee, that I have refufed to pub.
lfli any thing from the party to which he
is the tool than which, nothing can be more deftitute of truth, and which I pledge myfelf to prove to the fatisfaftion of the world. I muft requeft the fufpenfion of the public opinion for one week.
FIRE! On Sunday night laft, about 10 o'clock, the new Factory belonging to mefirs. Sproule and Hanna, was difcovcred to be on fire; the alarm was foon fpread, and a large concourfe of the citizens of the place atTemhled, but no exertions they could make, werc fufficierit to retard the prog re fs of the flames. In a fiiort time it was completely confumed, except the brick walls, which were much damaged. Nothing was faved except a few yards of cotton bagging that was at the far end from where the fire began. An immenfe quantity of hemp and bagging was burnt the lofs is eftimated at near ten thoufand dollars ! After the alarm was over, c the adjoining houfes fecured from the fire," a negro fellow who worked in the fadlory was taken into cuftody ; and on Monday examined before a magiftrate ; circumliantial proof "was fufflciently ftrong, to authorifc his commitment for further trial at the fucceeding circuit court. He has fince confefied lie fet the factory on fire." From the lively intered the citizens of Frankfort feel in the patriotic exertions of the proprietors of the factory, we have no doubt, but this heavy lofs will be meafurably retrieved, by every mens being afforded to facilitate the re-bulding of it fhould thofc gentlemen think proper to do fo. Frankfort paper
Capt. Lake, of the Florida, from NewOrleans, (arrived at New Yoik) informs, that the French cor.ful at th?t place. had applied to the governor for the priviledgc of landing about eighteen thnuf.tnd French inhabitants, who h.d been orderfd to Itave Cuba, which rrqu-ft had been granted ; and that he met in the river, bound up, fever, fchojners and a Hoop, and out fide the bar, three more fchoor.rs, all from Si.
