Buffalo, July 31.

The American Agent, Surveyors and party employed in running the Boundary Line between this country and the British possessions in Canada, under the 6th article of the Treaty of Ghent, arrived on Saturday last, at Black Rock, in the schooner Hannah, having completed the surveys under that article.

We learn the surveyors will be engaged for several weeks in the neighborhood of this place, in completing their maps, &c. after which a meeting of the Board for a final decision and report under this article, will take place in Utica.

We anticipate, with much interest, the publication of the correct and splendid charts which this survey will furnish, of all the navigable waters, channels and bays between St. Regis, on the St. Lawrence, and Lake Superior; embracing an extent of more than one thousand miles, and comprehending, as we are informed, not less than twenty five hundred Islands. These Islands, many of which contain from ten thousand to one hundred thousand acres of land, and are extremely valuable, will be divided by the Commissioners, and it is to be hoped that the two governments will immediately take possession of such as may fall to them respectively, and put them in train for sale and settlement, by which means we shall get rid of the hordes of smugglers and renegadoes who now infest many of them.
