SIMEON MOREY. July 14,181a- iu'ri fleet failea up flic ~a. Lawrcni to attack it bv water. The armv Was conducted by a party oi Iro- quois, inimical to the French, but who abandoned their allies in the rnidfc of the ■"dldernefs, in confe- quence of which, the provincial' were dlfperfed, and returned hbm<! as they could. Meanwhile, a for^^ was Liiulfd from the fleet to make a divcrfion, but they were prompt¬ ly attacked by the French and for¬ ced to re-embark with Great loft. This expedition, therefore, totally failed. The fecond was more fortunate. The great Lord Chatham, juuly alarmed at the prdgrefs the French* armies were making in North A- mcrica, forefaw that the northi Weflern continent muit loon obey one or other of the rival powers. A formidable armament for the times, coiififtmg of about t$roQO men, in 250 tranfnorts, and con¬ voyed by 20 men of war, was Ik- ted out with fo much crvpedkion, tJ^V:, &dxt&i& t'v: river Sr l?w- rence in ]unc, irqo.* It was com- manded by General "Wolfe and Ad¬ miral Saunders. Notwithftar.dinr this promptitude, the enemy wa: prepared to meet it. He firii mad^ an attempt to burn the fleet in thcr river by fire fhips ; it was well con- dueled, and would probably have fucceeded, if he had not let Are too ibon. Point Levi was flrft taken and carried by the EncjKfh, from whence the town was bombarded. The French, to prevent an inveft- ment, had polled their principal force at Montmorenci. The ground was very flrong. Wolfe attacked them with the flour of hi; troops, coniifting of all his flank companies ; he could not, howev¬ er, with the moft heroic exertions, force their ilrons; nolitions, and was compelled to retreat to his bat- teaux, leaving 15 hundred of hi: men on the field. This lofs, to¬ gether with the approach of win¬ ter, would have jultihed a frigid calculating General in giving up the enterprife ; but Woffe was re- folvedto couqucr or die. He did both. * Had thii cKpeditionbcen delayed \ ?ort* night, or even a week longer, i: h»d EU C&t* tainly failed, a^; fome expeditions have d. during; the rwljlfcn»J! *?** ^«l &? n :
