. Proclamation of trie President "'f the United
States, it appears that the sovereignty of our
country has been insulted, and the lives of
e\;r citizens sacrificed, by the unjustifiable
Conduct of a British armed ship—
IHsolvtd, That we consider the unprovok-
ed attack made on the United States' armed
strip the Chesnpeak", by the British ship of
•ni thtf Leopard, a wanton outrage upon
the lives of our fellow-citizens, a direct vio-
lation of our national honor and an infringe-
mert of our rwttonal rights and sovereignty.
Resolved, That we most sincerely ap*
prove the proclamation, and, the firm and
dispassionate course of policy pursued by
the president of the United States, and we
will cordially unite with our feilow-citizsns
•in affording effectual support to such mea-
sures as our government may further adopt,
in the present crisis of our affiirs.
Re.'vlvtd. That we shall remember with
pride am) pleasure the patriotic and spirited
conduct of the citizens of Norfolk, Ports-
moth and their vicinities, before the orders
of the government were known, upon this
momentous occasion ; and that thev are en-
titled to the thanks and approbation of their
fellow-citizens throughout the Union.
Resolved, That the selectmen be request-
ed to return a suitable answer to the respect-
ful communications frqmour f'.llow-citizcns
of Norfolk, with the proceedings of this
meeting-.
WIuam Coor-iit, town clerk.

menacing verbal messages had been sent to
the inhabitants of that place, notifying the
intention of the British to effect a landing
by force, and recommending the rem val
of their women and children, to avoid the
spiling of innocent.blood.
Information from the Mobile, early in
June, gave rise to serious apprehensions that
the Creek nation of Indians would be hos-
tile to the U. S. Bat by letters of later
date, we learn, that the present indications
of their disposition are entirely pacific.

WASHINGTON, July 20.
It is said that the scurvy prevails to a
considerable . extent on board the British
ships Lately before Hampton. If so it is ve-
,ry probable they will repair to Halifax in
order to land their men, which they will as-
suredly find it a very hard thing to do in
fhe United States. .
Rumor says the British commodore held
(4very rud?;vud undignified language to the
¦person who communicated the president's j
^ropiarnatioa to h,irri, it^js-fllso said on the
