BrRLiVGToN, (VerO Sept. 6. The hit week has been nothing ut a fiene of anxiety Sc ronfuC ui in this quarter, owing to the numerous reports in cir Culation that the Britilh were marching towards PUttfbjrg. I'he fact being aftertuned, that they are advancing, 1 fit down to give you a hafly fketch of the garticulars whiebfearne within my knowledge. Gen. Izard (as reported) by an order from the lecretary of war, has been directed, and I equally marched with the principal part of his force, to the weft, to join gen.

Gaines' or Brown's army, and has left only , Simon Gonfallis.

gen. M'Comb's brigade, with a tew militia at Flattfburg. The whole force cn our fide will not exceed 2000 men now at that place f that of the enemy, from the beft accounts I can obtain, amounts to 6000, actually on this fide of the lines, under the command of gen. Brifbane, be a very large number (verbal accounts fay 9000) at Qtlletown, her.ded by fir G. Prevofl. An at

tack on Plattfburg is momentarily expected j the inhabitants of that village are in the j greateft confirmation, and re moving their families and rSedts.

Our fleet have K ft their moorinrrs near j James Kinman the lines, and have arrived off Piatt burgh.

They have been reinforced by the new brir i Jocob Long,

lately built at Yergennes. Should they be attacked by the enemy, t is believed they will give a good account of thcmlelvcs to their country.
