This document is dated -.he 7th, and will appear in our cclumns f to-morrow PRIVAIE LETTELO TTERDANI o , JUNE 6. It is said that Raab was relieved before the expira "lot of the period mentioned ; that Trieste has been retaken by the Austrians, assisted by the English on the lea side ; that Marmont's army has dwindled :o 5000 men in the course of its march from Dalma tia. General Chastelet is before Venice. Toe Austrians have evacuated Leipzig, which is supposed to be destined for the head quarters of the King of Westphalia. It is said also that a contribu tion of eighteen million franks has been levied on the inhabitants of Vienna. fl A Russian courier passed through Lemberg on the Inth ult. for the head quarters of Prince Charles, which gives bieth to various conjectures. An insur rection has broken out in the province of Margentheim which was lately claimed by the King of Wirtemberg. No Moiteurs have reached this place these last two sir three days. This happens some times through )--:;ler.z. We are astonished at the inactivity of the I ; :..ricl armies in Germany.

At 11 o'clock on that day, the Dispatch Board arrived from the Continent with the great and joyful news that the Archduke CHARLES had had an engagement with the French. He thinks the date of the battle was 25th or 26th ult. ; that after an awful engagement, the Austrians were I successful. The loss on the side of the French i is two Field Marshals, twenty Generals, killed, and thirty thousand men. I have just seen Mr. BON.- THORN, of the Custom-house boat, who boarded the Fortuna, from Rotterdam, which place she left on the evening of the 2d, and says that accounts had reached that place, that there had been battles which lasted three days ; in the end the Austrians were successsful, with great slaughter on both sides. The Captain of the Quale schooner is positive as to the fact of dispatches having been forwarded." ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DA TE. gg A fleet has arrived this morning from Heligo land, which they left on Sunday, with the news that accounts bad been received there of the Archduke having engaged the French on the 26th ultimo, anal gained a complete victory , killin g two Field O ffi cers, 1 2.3 Generals, and 40,000 killed and taken prisoners. —Captain MaLcol.si, of the Delight, of Kirkaldy, who left Heligoland six hours after the fleet, says, he saw a copy of a Proclamation from the Archduke for a day of thanksgiving for the victory.

The regiments have all marched in, and are en camped on their respective grounds on South Sea Common and at Gosport, excepting the 62d and 68th, regiments, which are to come in this day. Three squadrons of the 9th Light Dragoons, and three squadrons of the 2d German Light Dragoons, are quartered in the neighbourhood, expecting orders to embark. All the line of battle ships have taken out their lower-deck guns ; they are, we understand, to receive on board 600 troops each. Very considerable quantities of =Munition, Con greve's rockets, /cc. have been shipped. All the Revenue cutters are under orders to join the Expedition ; and every description of small ves sels at Portsmouth are fitting with carronades for the service. The Swallow, Vulture, Greyhound, Hawke, Shark, Cormorant, and Rose revenue cutters are ar rived there. Capt. WOODRIFF is appointed principal Agent for transports.

The transports at Gravesend have received orders to proceed to Harwich and the Downs, and have sailed to take in troops. They are reduced to about forty, the want of shipping being so great, that many which were at Gravesend fitted for men only have been ordered back to Deptford to receive cavalry.— The main body of the Expedition will probably sail this week. The first division of it is completed on the Ordnance department, .and the second is prepa ring with extraordinary activity. The former occu pied nearly 7000 tons of shipping, and embraced every article necessary for the field or a siege, for an assault or a campaign. The second division, now in progress of preparation, consists of six brigades of artillery, and an immense battering train, the amount of which we stated last week ; besides pontoons of a large size, punts, platforms, gabions, fascines, and every other species of military stores. It will amount to nearly 5000 tons. When we consider that these stores are shipped from the Thames alone, without taking into account the quantities shipped at Ports mouth and other places, we must regard this as one of the most formidable expeditions ever fitted out by this country. A regiment of the Waggon Train will embark at Deptford this day or to-morrow.

SHEERNESS, JULY 8. Passed by for the River Thames a fleet of ships, from Gottenburg, which pace they left under con voy of his Majesty's ship SUPERB, in all about 150 sail ; near 150 sail of merchant ships were left at Gottenburgh, and would get away about two days after the SUPERB sailed, as they were then prevented getting out in consequence of a gale.

A Spanish ship, called the Alexandra, arrived yes terday with wines, from Bourdeaux. A Spanish Co lonel and some other persons of rank and considera tion are passengers in this vessel. None of the crew had arrived at a late hour last night, fer want et the necessary passports ; but we have learnt throitgh private channel some interesting particulars. The master of the ship had been detained a prisoner in France during many month:, and was liberated in order to convey these wines for Spain, we beli the royal cellars at Madrid. Having re. n ved his orders and papers, he set sail ; but he had no sorr.tir cleared the mouth of the Garonne, than he shined his course to the north, and, in revenge for the injus tice done to himself and his unhappy country by the French, he has brought his cargo to England. We have learnt, by the same opportunity, some facts re= specting several Spaniards of distinction, who for a long time have not been heard of. The Dukes of GRENADA and VILLA HERMOSA, and the brother of the latter, were prisoners at Bourdeaux. The former was sent under a guard to France, for refusing to take the oath of allegiance to JosErn : the two latter w ere volunteers in the army of PALAI•OX, arid were made prisoners at Saragossa. The Duke of VILLA HERMOSA h not more than 18 or 20 years of age. — The Spaniards who were seat from Saragossa to France, after the surrender of that city, were many of them wounded, and incapable of proceeding so ra pidly as the troops attending them required ; but this was not allowed to impede the progress of the escort ; and 800 of these unhappy victims, incurable of sus taining the fatigue of the march, were shot on the road to Bayonne. At this latter place, we un4erstand. ' every sort of indignity has been offered to the uninr tunate captives \silo have passed through it; at Bour deaux.it is otherwise—every humane attention is paid to them, and the ruined inh abitants of this once s p len-1 did and flourishing city entertain a rooted disappro bation of the war against Spain.—This vessel kas. brought the same report that was stated in the Portu-1 guesc Papers—that General BLAKE, having been{ considetably reinforced subsequent to the battle on: the 10th of June, had obtained possession of Sara-I STOW. ..) Friday right, between ten and eleven, a most tremendous storm of thunder and lightning was exile fenced at Deal, which d'amaged the swift of the wind-mill near Deal Castle, knocked down a stack of chimnies in the Naval hospital, passed throng) several Wards and out of the south-west corner, de stroying two window• frames, and breaking all thi glass, melting through iron bedsteads, .taking a boar( out of the floor, but providentially did not hurt an person; although the splinters from the window frame fell upon the bed of a patient who was carried in thee the morning before for a fractured skull, the shock c which occasioned the wound to bleed afresh.
