There have arrived a good many soldiers, destined to complete the regiments of the Army of Portugal. This army has few sick, notwithstanding the rapid marches which they have made, as well as the great heat. The Count d'Erlou has sent from Seville to Badajoz numberless convoys of provisions. The new fort that is to be coastructed on the out side,of Seville will be extremely strong. This will be one of the most regular places in Spain.

From the 25th of October to this day, there have entered this port ig merchant vessels loaded with different merchandises, on account of merchants, 'coming from different ports of the Adriatic, and the kingdom of Naples. . VIENNA, NOVEMBER 6. Though the Ministers regularly go to Presbutg the conferences, at which his Majesty constantly pre sides, it is believed that he will come to pass some days here. It is said that 1200 officers belonging to our army, beginning with the Captain and belong ing downwards, are going to be put on the pension list, which will be a great saving to the Public Treasurys flie first news that we shall receive from Turkey ought to be very Interesting, for it seems that pre , parations had been made on both sides for a great battle. The Grand Vizier wishes to avail himself of the moment, whilst all his troops are still assembled, to attack the Russians. Now is the tune when the Asiatics return to their, homes, and no consideration will be able to detain them with the at my during the winter. The Grand Vizier has already kept them from their horites too long by the power of his elo quence and other insinuating means. The General in-Chief Count Kutusow, on the contrary, seeks to put off the battle. This General has neither the fire nor the temerity of his predecessor Count Kametiskoi; but his plans are wisely calculated, very consistent, and they inspire confidence. Walachia and Moldavia are to make considerable deliveries of provisions and cheese fa. the Russian army. These deliveries are to be paid for, partly in bills, and partly in money. Nothing new has taken place on the frontiers of Servia. It is believed that the Turks have re--issem bled powerful forces, for the purpose of invading this province from several points ; but the Paellas of Bos nia must have found the situation of the Servians too menacing. The accounts from the Diet of Hungary confirm *laudable disposit ion of the Statessinfi,rrn themselves to the intentions of his Majest y Empe ror; but they firmly express their sei h thatthe finances of the Empire maybe securA for ever against a simi lar crisis, add demand, that such measures sh , lll be taken for this putposeots shall remove every doubt..

PETERSBURGH, OCT. 77:e Court Gazette continues, in the frllowing terms, l the Report of the military operations in Moldavia, According to the statement of the General-in-Chief of the Russian army, the following are the particu lars of the action which took place on the 2r3.h of August, on the bank of the Leon, in front of an island, which is fortiEed in that river. Lientenant- Colonel Engilhand, with MOO infantry, and a pa; eof our flotilla, crossed at three in the efternoon to the upper part of the island, without being seen by the Turks, teho, however, occupied a small hrigllt, on which they had established a redoubt. At the break of day the first column, under the orders of Major Crassosky, of the chasseurs, attacked the redoubt uy assault, carried it in an instant, mete withstanding the ttrious fire of the enemy, and over threw the Turks at the point of the bayenet. The Tut Ice who arrived to succour them in 22 barges, were vi ry roughly handled by this brave co lumn, and -obliged to take to flight. Several wet e drowned in attempting to save themselves ; t.veive barges were sunk with all their crews ; the greatest part of the whole were killed. In order to spare otir men, and to dear the island from the enemy, it was agreed that the Ttuks, who still had a the-de-I:on:, and who occupied another redoubt, should evacuate the island without delay and witheut molestation. We killed in this action 1100 men, but lost the Ad , jutant of the Commander in Chief, Cornet of the Re giment of Knights of the Guard Obreskow, a Sc coed Lieutenaiit of "the 2711 Cha s s eu r s, and 17 sol diers.

At the departarc of the cartel, 10 French gun. boats had passed through the Holstein Canal, from the Baltic, to resume their station in the Elbe during the winter. " Nov. 11.—Three boats arrived from the Elbe, bring accounts that the garrison of Neuewerk, with all the guns and military stores, have been withdrawn. The'ostensible cause of the French having evacuated this island, which, from its situation in the mouth of , the Elbe, is, in many respects, a point of s'lne im portance, is stated to be its unhealthiness, and want of accommodation for troops in the winter. The real cause our informant supposes is the breaks ing out cf some disturbance in the interior, and states, that at their departure, there was a rumour at Ham burgh of an action having taken place between the Russians and French.
