Accounts from Quebec, of the 1st ult., mention that nineteen vessels had arrived from the United Kingdom, having on board 1,267 settlers, besides other passengers. This number, it is said, will nearly complete 3000, received at this fortress in the course of the season. It is the project to settle the eastern township, in preference to any other part of the two provinces.
