The anchor left by the _Dispatch_ brig, at Stonington, when she 'cut and
run,' has been got up and brought to New London. It weighs upwards of 20
_cwt._--_Niles's Weekly Register, Sept. 10, 1814._

"Mr. Chalmers, late master of the _Terror_, bomb-vessel, employed in the
attack on Stonington, has been captured in a British barge and sent to
Providence. He says 170 bombs were discharged from that ship in the
attack on Stonington, which were found to weigh 80 lb. each; the charge
of powder for the mortar was 9 lbs.; adding to this the wadding, that
vessel must have disgorged eight tons weight."--_Ibid._

INDUSTRY.--Many of our readers will recollect the anecdote of the
thrifty American who asked Commodore _Hardy_, when he would attack
_Stonington_ again? so that he might have his cart ready to carry off
the shot; and also the accounts we have had of the mighty mass of metal
collected there and sold at New York, &c. It seems, however, that the
_iron mine_ is not yet exhausted, for certain persons with a diving
machine have raised no less than 11,209 lbs. of shot, which was thrown
overboard from the _Pactolus_, when she was in such a hurry to get away
from the two guns of Stonington! They have also picked up a quantity of
copper.--Niles's _Weekly Register, June 3, 1815._
