ColonA Gorgoli, Aide-de-Camp to the Emperor of Russia, arrived at his Majesty's head quarters, with a letter from Sovereign. He states that the Russian army advancing to -ds Olniutz, pawed the frontier on the 24th of May. '1 he day before yesterday, the Emperor r-viewed the whole . his guard, consistirg of infantry, cavalry, and artillery. The tabitantsef Vienna were struck with the numbers, the fine ap- Irance, and good condition of this body of men. The Viceroy has proceeded with the army of !taly to Aeden ,urg, in Hungary. It should seem that the Archduke John in tends to concentrate his army on the Raab. " The Duke of Ragusa arrived on the 13th inst. at Laybach, with the army of Dalmatia. " The heat is row very vehement ; and persons well ac quainted with the Danube, foretel that it will shortly overflow its banks. We avail ourselves of the interneeliate period to get forward with the bridges of boats and rafts, and to secure the piles. " All the advices which we receive from the side of the enemy, concur in stating, that the cities of Preshurg, Brunn, and Znaim, are comiletely fill , el with their wounded. Ihe Austriaro them selves estimate their loss at 18,000. " Prince Poniatowsky follows up his military successes, with the army of the Grated Duzhy sf Warsaw. After taking Sando ntir, he made himself master of the fortress of Zamose, whet: • the enemy sus:ained the loss of 3000 nun, sod 3) pieces of artillery. All the Poles serving in the Austrian army desert. " The enemy, after the failure of their attempt upon Thorn, were vigorously pursued by Gereral Dombrowski. " The Archduke Ferdinand will reap nothing but disgrace from his undertaking. He is supposed to have arrived in Au strian Silesia, with his force, which is waged one-third. " The Serator Wibiski has particularly distinguished Liniself by his patriotic sentiments and his activity. " Count Von Metternich is arrived at Vienna. He will be exchanged at the outposts, for the French embassy, to whorn the Austrians, contrary to the law of nations, had refused passports, • end who were conveyed by them to Pest." PARIS, JUNE 15. The Minister of Marine and Colonies has forward.' td circular letters to the Maritime Prefects, notifying to them the Act of the United States of America, passed on the Ist of February, fir suspending the commer cial relations of that Repubiic with England and France, and excluding their ships of war and mer chantmen from the American harbours, The Senate met yesterday. JUNE M.—Private letters from Vienna, of the sth, contain the following particulars :—" For these few days past, there have been rumours of pacific over tures having been made by Austria to France. We know not what degree of credit thi s pl eas i ng intelli gence may be entitled to ; but we can positively state, that Baron Von Vincent, who is known to the public by the negociations which he conducted at Paris, has been here these two days." Other letters, of the salt* date, alluding to the ar rival of Baron Vincent, state, that the sole intention of his visit was to inform the Emperor, that the French Generals Durosnel and Foulers, who were supposed to have been killed, were found among the wounded, and remained as prisoners of war with the . Austrians. Some papers were afterwards exchanged, which related to the officers of both armies wounded and taken prisoners. The advance of the corps of General Deroi, which came from the Tyrol, was on the Bth at Weillicim ; and the main body was quartered on the banks of the Loisach, to facilitate the communicatian with General Picard, who is at Landsberg, and occupies both banks of the Lech with the corps under his com mand. It is said that the insurgents shew themselves in great force at Mittenwald, Patenkirch, and the passes between the Tyrul and Upper Bavaria. They send out parties as far as the environs of Weilheim, who levy contributions, and commit excesses of every kind. It is reported that, in order to put a !strip to these excesses, and to deliver the Tyrolese from them a second time, the corps of General Von Wrede, sta tioned near Lintz, will return to Bavaria, whence it ill again proceed to Inspruck. The Courageux and Polonais, ships of the line,l lately arrived at Cherbourg from Guadaloupe, landed troops and a supply of Military stores in that colony. This expedition was conducted by Vice Admiral Tronde. Just 7.—The Duke of Abrantes, we understand, is to take the command of the Army of Reserve in Germany. _ According to the last accounts from the army, the' Emperor has repaired to Schocnbrunn, after having' revit %ked the Imperial Guard under the walls of Vi enna. 'l'he %yolks at the bridges over the Danube are still continued with great assiduity. We lean besides from Vienna, that the Burgher Gu rd of that city remains in the best disposition of mind, and that the scarcity of provisions is not so gi eat as it was represented. There is still a super flair y i f eggs, ‘vheaten bread, sausages, dried fruits, and grain. Tilc price of wine is very low ; a flask of good Hungarian wine sells for 2.4. kreutzers.— Butcher's meat only is dear ; but the high price is less occasioned by scarcity than by the paper mone:;, and want of confidence to which it has given rise among the citizens. Every means is adopted to di minish this kind of circulating medium. The French army, which is sufficiently provided with flesh meat, and wWch receives new supplies from Hungary, sends to Vienna all the surplus of the meat, and that which the soldiers have no time to cook. FRONTIERS OF AUSTRIA, JUNE 4. Agreeable to different private letters, Field-Mar shal St. Baron Von Hillier is said to have crossed the Danube near Presburg with a large corps of an army, and joined the troops of the insurrection.— Every day we look forward for a fresh battle. General D.uca has taken the command of the Hun ganans. JUNE 18.—The Afoniteur contains the following : A private letter from Italy mentions that Gene rals Chastellar and Schmidt were defeated at Clagen fart on the 7th. We have taken 1.500 prisoners. They write from Vienna that M. Pergin, Mini s•.ir of Police, and M. Zinzendorff, Minister of the F. • :ince, have received permission from the Emperor of the French to go to WolkersdorfF, a large village, ei,;ht miles from Vienna, on the Moravian road, w.ivr the Emperor of Austria now is. This circum s...ince has given rise to a report of peace, which the inhabitants of Vkana cherish with much pleasure." pINTZ, JUNE 8. The Duke of pa ntz i c has his head-quarters here, and the tw s 3 Bavirian divisions have taken possession of the irk-de-lion! ; - but General Wrede has dispatched two regiments into Bavaria. The cordon of troops between KremS and St. Polte has been considerably strengthened, as the Austrians were from time to time sending scouring parties Son the right bank of the Danube. It is said that the Tyrolese insurgents are in possession of Salzburg, but this needs confir mation. STRAsIiURG, JUNE 10. According to the latest advice from the Imperial li.:al•quarters at Ebersdoi f, the army of Daloaatia, under the constrimd of the Duke of Ragusa, had formed a j1 , 11Cii(111 with the army of Italy. The thee armies Lon-ritute a ft.rce of '2.00,000, exclusive of the 'ro , ps of the Confederation Of the Rhine. The A tivrian aimy was still posted on the left bank of the Dami be ; and the Ilead-r,uitruas of the Archduke Charles were at the distance of eight leagues from Vienna. We expect important intelligence in the euurce of a few days. FRANKFORT, JUNE 17. It is the Duke of grunswick's corps which has entered Dresden. He appears to intend to advance int) Westphalia. The Austrian corps that entered Bayreuth consists only of militia, supported by a de tachment of Uhlans : these hare advanced to within eight leagues of Wirtzburg. • I 4 BAYONNE, JUNE 10.

After three days, they returned and attacked our troops at Inspruck with greater force. .They were, however, repulsed. In all the engagements the Ty rolese were joined by regular Austrian troops ; but now the insurrection burst forth in the upper and lower valley of the Inn, by which our troops were cut I off from their countrymen, anddestitute of provisions. The inhabitants of Inspruck were also starving ; and the troops wanting ammunition, were, in consequence, obliged to retreat through by-sways, as the insurgents had broken down the bridges.

Ceneral Deroi, after resisting the Insurgents for two days, under circumstances of great dihicuity, ac KufFstein, found himself under the necessity of eva cuating it before a superior force, and of retreating to a position which may enable him to protect the Ba varian frontiers. This retreat made Brigadier-General Picard, who was posted at Kempten, resolve to fall back upon Kaufbeuren. Theleft flank of the corps under Major General Von Scheeler being tlius egposed, hialhjeqy ordered considerable reinforcements of cavalry and infantry to be forwarded to the 1: - .:ntiers, to protEct them from any hostile attack. tfami3upecii, suNr. 16. According to several letters, it appears that Austrian head-quarters were on the 6th June atWol. kersdorif ; that nothing of importance had t:tl: , .;n. placep but that preparations were earnestly making for re., newing hostilewerations. It is besides that Field Marshal IVller has already passed the Danube with a large army at Presburg, so that great events may now besoon expected. With respect to the Tyrolian insurgorts, letters from Munich, of the Bth of June, say, that they have made themselves masters of some villages in Bavaria, and are at Murzau, twelve miles from Munich. Mea. sures, however, have been taken to place the capital out of all danger, , BAYREUTH, JUNE 11.. This day arrived about forty Austrian Uhlans, followed by 500 infantry. The Uhlans hive carried away the public chests, Monsieur l'lntendant de Touroon, and several French Commissaries have been conducted to Bohemia. ZARA, (DALMATIA) MAY 31. An Italian priva.eer, le Feroce, has taken on pur coast three small Austrian vessels, on board of one of which was Count Mascarelli, a Piedmontese, soi-disant Austrian Colonel, and commanding the in surrection in Dalmatia and Albania. There were foUnd on him several inflammatory Proclamations, similar to those circulated by the Austrians in Dal matia.

The Archduke Charles has charged Count Von Lazansky, Governor of Moravia and Silesia, by an order from his head-quarters at Margrat Newsied, May 28th, to thank the inhabitants of our city and the suburbs for the eager benevolence with which they receive the wounded. They supply the considerable want of cavalry horses in our army. Count Lazansky has addressed a Proclamation, un der date the '2sth May, to the inhabitants of Moravia and Silesia, to furnish volunteers with such hones as.. may serve to remount at the baiilewicks of the circles, where, if serviceable, they will be paid at 3!0 florins per head.

The King himself goes to Biberack to-morrow, to give the necessary orders to the royal corps of observation, under Lieut.-General Pfuhl. Similar reinforcements of French and Baden troops are approaching, and we hope tranquillity will soon be restored.
