CESSATION OF HOSTILITIES BETWEEN FRANCE AND AUSTRIA. Nothing but an imperious sense of duty could have prompted us to express, so decidedly as we have done, the impression produced upon our mind by an unim passioned examination of the facts detailed in the 26th Bulletin of the French army. It was distressing to us to be obliged to speak a language so different from that of the great majority of our contemporaries, and to refuse our credence to the vague reports upon which their illusory hopes were founded. But, though we stood almost alone, in our endeavours to prevent the public mind from being buoyed up, by false expec tations, to a state which makes disappointment doubly distressing and enervating, we have the consolation to believe, that the public will have done justice to our motives, and that we have, in some measure, prepared them to receive with fortitude the calantitotis detail which it is now our distressing task to commun;cate. The result of the late battle has been a CONTINENTAL ARMISTICE. • A suspension of arms has been agreed upon be tween the French and Austrians, as, a prelude to a definitive treaty. This instrument, which, whatever complexion the conqueror may allow the future treaty to wear, may be considered as sealing the annihila tion of the Austrian Monarchy, was signed at the French camp at Znaim, on the 12th instant. The particulars, detailed ;n the subjoined . Bulletins, require no comment. They speak a language which no powers of sophistry can possibly mistake or pervert.

The Dote of Ragusa replied, that it was not i s his power to accede to such a pro-; position ; but that he would acquaint the Emperor with it. Meanwhile he attacked the enemy ) took from him an excellent position; made some prisoners,. ' and took two colours.

' Aar. I. There shall be a suspension of arms between the are. Mies of his Majesty the Emperor of the French, ;lag of Italy, : and of his Majesty the Emperor of Austria. • 11. The line of demarcation shall be on the side of Upper Atta.4 via, the frontier which separates Austria from Bohemia, the ' Circle of Znaim, that of Brunn, and a line drawn from t tlie fron tier of Moravia upon Rhaab, which shall begin at the point where• the frontier of the Circle of Brunn touches the March; and de scending the March to its conflux with the Taya; from thence to St. Johann and the road to Presbourg; Presbourg and - a league round the town ; the great Danube to the mouth of the Rhaab ; the Rhaab to the frontiers of,S:tria ; Stiria, Carniola, Istria, and Fiume. gg The Duke of Rivoli's corps encamps in the - Cir. :cle of Znaitn, that of the Duke of Auerstadt in the Circle of Drunn ; that of the Duke of Ragusa jn the Circle of Korn-Neubourg ; that of Marshal Oudinot before Vienna, at Spitz ; thatiof the Viceroy on Pres tOukg and Grata.. The imperial Guard returns to , the environs of Schtenbrunn. (f The harvest is very fine, and abundant every where. The army is cantoned in a beautiful country, rich in provisiotti of all kinds, wine particularly." That part of the force which was collected at Ports imotoil for the Expedition, sailed yesterday from rSpithead for the Downs, at which place we may soon expect to hear of their having arrived.. Will the troops now proceed ts) their Original' destination ? Was a diversion' in favour of 41u:frit, any part of the original plan ? Has any time been unnecessarily wasted in getting the Expedition ready ? Ought the delay to be accounted a happy circumstance or other wise ? These are important questions, and they re quire not only a solid, but a speedy decisiob ! Hotv often have we raised our feeble voice to in duce our rulers—to induce our countrymen to nurse our resources l—to train our male population to the use of arms ! not to lull themselves into false security! not to content themselves with half measures, but to prepare in earnest for the mighty struggle that awaits our beloved and hitherto highly-favoured country !—W ill the call be now attended to—or are we doomed to inevi , table destruction ! Al. The citadels of Brunn and of Gratz, F!!all be evacuated immediately on the signature of the present Arcilistice. IV. The detachments of Austrian troops which ar: , in the Ty rol and Voralberg, shall evacuate those two countries, and the fort of Sachsenbourg shall be given up to the French troops. V. The magazines of provisions and clozllis, which shall be found in the countries to be evacuated by the Austrian Army, and which belong to it, may be emptied. VI. In relation to Poland, the two armies wall take the line which they at present occupy. VII. The present suspension .of arms shill continue for a month, and fifteen days notice shall be given before hostilities re commence. VIII. Commissaries on either side shall be named, for the exe cution of the present Articles. IX. From to-morrow, the l 3th, the Austrian troops shall begin their evacuation of the countries marked out by this suspension of arms, and shall retire by daily marches. The fort of Brunn shall be given up to the French Army on the I 4th of July, that of Gratz on the IGO:. Had Austria been governed by merit qualified or worthy to have the direction of such armies as she lately sent into the field, the campaign would have ,had a very different result. Nay more under pro per guidance, her armies, even after the late &Oats should have been able to keep the field,, and • to have continued the contest. In that event, this country might, perhaps, have been enabled to strike a decisive blow—that is, we might have bad the opportunity; but we fear that oniy some petty enterprize would, even in that case, have been attempted, and not one of those mighty strokes which tend to turn the tide of war and to compell a conqueror to return to the heart of his dominions. Had our Expedition been at tended with less delay, the force which it carries might have been landed en the French coast—reached Paris —dote• its duty—and returned again to its ships, he. fore any adequate force could have been collected to counteract its operations. But such an . atteMpt would not suit British magmnimity, -.rich ever prefers dan- • ger and hazard to prudence and security ! !—Where. ever an enemy has the strongest batteries and the best appointed force ; there Britons with to display their bravery. People of any other country; pmessing the. same means for transporting its armies from place to place, would act otherwise. • We fear, however, that it is no too late to attempt any enterprize of the mture to which we have al-• luded.—lndeed, the principal benefit to have been expected from it is put beyond the reach of hope by the dastardly precipitation with which the Austrian titled commanders have sealed their own doom.

I Made and concluded between us the undersigned, charged with full powers front our res2ective Sovereigr.s, the Prince of NEUFCHATEL, Major-General of the French Army, and M. Baron WIMPIFIEN, Major-General of the Etat •Major of the Austrian Army, at the amp before Znaim, July 12, 1809. , : Three GOttenburgli Mails arrived as our Paper was goiutto Press. Their contents are unimportant. Advices received yesterday from the Continent in form us, that a British squadron had taken possession of the island of Rolla in the ♦icinity of Archangel, and had captured or destroyed a quantity of chipping 1 belonging to Russia. In consequence of these pro. j ceedings, the Russians had laid an embargo on the shipping at Archangel and other ports in that quarter.

" The Danube has risen six feet. The bridges of boats which had been constructed before Vienna since 1 the battle of Wagram, have been broken by the effects of this rise ; but the bridges at Ebersdorff arc solid and permanent ; none of them have suffered. Those bridges and the works of the Island of Lobau, are the admiration of the military persons of Austria— They avow, that such works are without example since the time of the Romans.

They set out for Gretna-green in a postchaise and four, but being missed about two hours after their departure, they were pursued and over taken at an inn at Hultingdon, just as they were about to proceed on their journey, and the lady was i brought back. ' On Saturday last, a soldier belonging to the loth Light Dragoons, a recruit, having offended some of his comrades, by refusing to spend his bounty-money, agreeabli to their wishes, at the Broil Barracks near Chichester, was put into a blanket by them, and tossed, as a punishment for his contumacy ; but be fore the discipline was ended, one of the corners of the blanket gave way, and the poor fellow fell.vio lently to the ground, by which, accident his neck was Ldislocated, and he immediately expired.
