Captains Popham and Spils- bury, with a detachment of seamen and marines, amounting to 181, pursued into Sandy-creek, (about 16 miles from Sackett's-harbour, ) a flo- tilla of 18 boats, carrying a number of cannon, and other stores, for the new vessels. The Bri- tish landed ; and were unexpectedly assailed by 150 riflemen, 4 field-pieces, nea...rly 200 Indians, and a numerous body of militia and cavalry. The resistance of the British was noble.

After a loss of 18 killed, and 50 dangerously wounded, Captain Popham and hiy party surrendered.
On the 1st of August, the American com- GREAT BRITAIN AND AMERICA. 399 mander, having his second frigate, the Mohawk, ready for the lake, again ventured out of port. Here the British were once more accused of un- willingness to fight " on equal terms.
