On the 10th April, at the very time When the Austrian General prostituted his character, and 'spread a snare for the King of Bavaria, by writing. the letter which has appeared in all the public 'papers, General Chasteller excited the Tyrol to insurrection, and surprised seven hundred .French conscripts 'who were going to Augsburg, where their regiments were, ;•nd who were marching in the confidences of peace. Obliged to surrender and made prisoners, they were massacred. Among them were eighty. Belgian's, born in the same town as Chasteller. Eighteen hun t4red Bavarians, made prisoners at the same time,' •teere also massacred. Chasteller, Who celmmanded, was witness to these horrors. • He not only made no rppositlon to them, but he is accused of having sealed at the massacre,' hoping that the Tyrolians havir.;,- to dread the vengeance due to a crime which they could not hope would be pas doned, Must be n ore firmly engaged in their rebellion.

Schoenbrunn, June 6. " Sirt—His Majesty the Emperor has been made acquainted with an order given by the Emperor Fran-. 1 cis, which declares that the French Generals Durosnel and Foulers, whom the circumstances of the war have placed in his power, shall answer for the punishment which the laws of justice may inflict on M. Chasteller, who has put himself at the head of the insurgents of the Tyrol, and Who has permitted the murder of 700 French prisoners, and between 18 and 1900 Bava rians, a crime unheard of in the history of nat:ons, and which might have caused a terrible reprisal in 40 Field Marshal Lieutenants, 36 Major-Generals, more than 300 Colonels or Majors, 1200 Officers, and 60,000 soldiers, if his Majesty did not consider prisoners as placed under his faith and honour, and had not besides proofs that the Austrian Officers in the Tyrol have been as indignant at the action as ourselves. “ His Majesty, however, has ordered that Prince Colloredo, Prince Metternich, Count Frederick Hard dick, and Count Rtigett; shall be arrested and con veyed to. France, to answer for the safety of Generals Durosnel and Foulers, threatened by the order of the day of your -Sovereign. - These Officers may die, Sir, but they shat) not die.without being revenged ; this vengeance shall not fall on any prisoners, but on the relatives of those who shall order their death. As to M. Chastener, he is not yet in the power of the army ; but if .he should be taken, you may be assured that he will be delivered to a military commission, , and that his trial will ,take place. I request your Excellency to believe the senti ments of.my high consi&ration. (Signed . ) " ALEXANDRE, Major-General." [The remainder of the Bulletin refers to the same subject of Chasteller; but at the conclusion some mention is made of Face. The Empress is said to be terrified at the thick cloud which covers futurity. .She speaks of peace—she asks for peace ; she con jured the deputies who went on the subject of Chas teller, to speak to the Emperor in favour of peace.] NAPLIS, 'JUN'S IS. , The Grand Expedition of the English, composed: . of more than 200 sail, after promenading fOr 10 days on the coasts of Calabria, doubtless with . the inten tion of prodncing a movement and taking advantage ' of it, seeing that this project did not succeed,. con fined itself to making a4anding yesterday, with six thousand men, en the Island of Ischia, (some miles from Naples, on the other side of Cape Mesino), which was defended by 2tr_Soo invalids , or soldiers of the Neapolitan depw. As it was impossible to prevent a debarkation in that island on account of the nature of its shores, this small corps retired into the castle, where it defends itself bravely. Yesterday and to-day there have been several serious engagements between our maritime forces and those of the English : hitherto they have been to our advantage • a, gun-boat and transport of the enemy have bee n sunk ; they still fight with obstinacy. • The King himself is on shore, in presence of the enemy, waiting with impatience for them to make a landing on the Continent ; we are well prepared to drive him into the sea, if he should have that teme rity. At this moment we see from Naples the whole of the enemy's squadron, which creins at the en trance of the Gulph " PORTSMOUTH, JULY 115. " About day-light this morning, the tents were struck in the three camps at Ifaslar, Yare, and South sea ; and by seven o'clock every soldier was onboard ship, a thing unexampled-14,000 men embarked in five hours—it was done by the Navy, who deserve the highest credit. Sir ROGER Cuwils himself sit perintended, and had the boats in divisions, with Captain to each. The troops embarked in the highest spirits, soldiers and sailors diet:ring together as they put off. They are perhaps the finest looking fellows that ever left this country, and, if well 01E , cered, will execute any thing. The embarkation was a grand, sight—the shores were crowded with thou sands of spectators, for miles, having come from Lon don, Oxford, and all quarters,.to witness it. Not a bed was to be had in Portsmouth, Gosport, or any place near. If I had not been hero a week, I must have gone to Farnham, which is twelve miles off, for a bed. The only part of the army remaining to be embarked here is the 24 German Light Dragoons, and they will go on board to-morrow. Admiral ()T -WAY and the Generals go on board OR Tuisday or on Wednesday, and it is expected that they will start on Thursday they have the good wishes of all here with them." " DOVER, JULY 15.
