Though they rendere6 themselves masters of one of these ships, the fire of the battery, joined to a well directed fire of musketry, quickly obliged them ,to abandon their project with considerable loss ; one of their ships was in particular severely handled. VIENNA, JULY 17. The War Minister, it is said, is employed with the Minister of Finance, in effecting a new reduction in , the army. Every officer, by this arrangement, of whatever rank, is to be pot en half pay. unless he has served eight years consecutively. These officers are, however, bound to re-enter the line when their ser vices are needed, or when recalled. The patent of the I gth instant was sent, under the seal of the Chamber of Finance, to all the authorities of this city and the adjoining district, with orders that it should not be opened till the morning of the 15th, and in presence of the clergyman and magistrates of everyplace. It was at first feared that the object of it was some new tax, but the public were enchanted on finding that it was only on the subject of notes of exchange, which were so much desired, and which must diminish the mass of paper in circulation. All the world were anxious to get some of them, and the exchange has-Improved in consequence ; this day it does not exceed 1400. The harvest is very abundant in Austria; it would have been still more so had not the corn suffered from the great drought of the summer. The last news from Turkey inform us, that the Grand Vizier, while advancing at the head of his main army against Rudschuck, sent also a consider- 1 able force against Silistria, which threatened that place with an attack. The Russian garrison not be ing numerous—or, at least its Commandant, being doubtless authorized by the orders of the Comman der in Chief, has thought proper to evacuate that place, after hastily destroying a part of the fortifica tions. The Turks are now in possession of Silistria. We are also informed that the Russians have retir. ed to within a league of Rudschuck, and that the Turks threaten that fortress. P. S. We have just learnt that the Russian• have re-entered Silistria. STRASBURGH, JULY 24, Their Majesties the King and Queen of Bavaria arrived yesterday in our city, under the names of the Count and Countess of Haag. The august travellers were quite incognito, and were only accompanied by a few persons of their Court, it being their wish to avoid every kind of ceremonial. After dining at Ro. bertsau, they visited the principal public buildings of, this city. The fine mausoleum of Count Saxe ar; rested their attention fol. a considerable time, and they also spent some time in the Imperial Palace.— Their Majesties did not depart till the cool of the evening; they passed through Kehl, and took the road to Baden. It is reported they will return in about a week to Munich ; and that the Princes of the Royal Family, who are at Salzburg, will also repair thither. ANHOLT MAILS. DRESDEN, JULY 4. The troops which have been lying in cantonments in the country around, and a.nong which are the Royal corps of Grenadiers, are .►gain marched into their respective garrisons. According to report his Majesty the King intends mak:tvg a inirney toWarsaw towards the end of this month. STOCKHOLM, JULY 16. The disturbances in Sudermania having happily been quelled, by the means and exertions of Count Wrede, his Royal Highness has been pleased, in full Court, to express his most gracious approbation of CountWrede's conduct in his very difficult operations. JULY 19.—The Emperor of Austria has sent all the silver belonging to his household, except a very small part reserved for use, to the Mint.

Dispatches have been received from Lord WEL LINGTON, dated Elvas, on the 18th ult. but they do not detail any military event of con.equence. The tranquillity enjoyed by the allied armies was extr►mely favourable to the convalescence of the sick and wolinded, although the heat of the weather was troublesome. The troops are all comfortably hutted. Two Anholt Mails arrived last night, and one this morning. By the latter we learn that the Great and Little Beltshave been enii: ely free from the annoyance of British cruizers for some time past—a circumstance which was hailed by the Danes with great satisfaction as an omen of a returning good understanding. From Constantinople we are informed that the refractory Janizaries, who lately caused so much bloodshed in that capital, have been dispersed on board the Turkish fleet. Some extracts from the papers brgught by tho above Mails will be found in another part of our paper. A Lisbon Mail arrived this morning, bringing intelligence from Lisbon to the 2gd tilt. but we do not learu that any movement had taken place on the part of either of the contending armies. The fallow ing are extracts from private letters and papers brought by the above opportunity : • ELVAS, JUNE SO. General Castanos has received an official account of the action of Don J. Sanches, on the 18th Munho, of the 800 dragoons who escorted the money and goods of the convoy, 70 only escaped ; it is, besides this, said, that after the French had capitulated they fired upon our soldiers, in consequence of which D. J. Sanches ordered 250 prisoners to be killed, carrying off, besides those, 150 with the convoy. The account of the great desertion frum the army of Marmont is confirmed. ELVAS, JULY 10 Three battalions, all the Juramentados, and persons' holding civil employments have marched from Buh -1 joz ; it is said that they will go to Z.*fra and from ther.ce to Seville. The garrison, consisting of infan try which, it is reported, remained in Badajoz after the march of these troops, amounted to 2000 men. A large quantity of warlike stores and provisions have entered Badajoz, and more is expected. The whole of the artillery sent off from Badajoz amounts' to 130 cannon. Generals Blake and Ballasteros embarked in Aya monte with their armies on the 7th inst. and immedi ately steered tor Cadiz. PLASENTIA, JUNE 19. The enemy go to the south in the most disconten ted manner ; from Salamanca to Almaraz more than 2000 men have deserted, who joined our bands in the mountains.

This army is in a respectable state, and it is necessaiy it should he SO, ab, according to the position the enemy has taken, he will not fail to attack us. Letters from Alentejo, dated the I7th, received by the courier of yesterday, bring the important intelli gence of Marmont's army having commenced to re tire by the bridges of the Tejo. He had prepared a ' great quantity of bread for hi; march. VILLA-FRANCA, JUNE 28. The troops that evacuated the Asturias marched to Leon, to unite with Bessie? es, with the exception of 1500 men who took the route through the mountains of Siintander, without doubt for the purpose of op. posing the progress of the patriot Campel►o, who,' without ceasing, persecutes and destroys them. Bessieres, with the aid of Bonnet, will form a divi sion of 1'2,000 men, with which he will observe our operations. SENABRIA.

All the French who are in these parts will jnin Bene vente, whose mice actually amounts to more than 7000 men. • The action of Orbigo cost them very dear; though our loss was very considerable, that of the enemy greatly exceeded it. CORUNNA, JULY C. The French who garrison Madrid, whether from fear of the patriots, who at every step attack them, or other motives with which we are not acquainted, placed rn the 7th ult. 19 cannon and 2 howitzers without the I gate of Funcarral. There was not wanting a good I Spaniard to inform Captain Gonzalos of the party of I the Empicenado of these circumstances, who, withl 200 cavalry was at 2 leagues distance, and advancing at midnight, surprised the enemy's advanced guard, reached the place where the artillery Was, put to flight the few troops that guarded it, obliged diem, with he exception ot tour who were killed, to take shelter' in Madrid, and took all the artillery, drawing it off with mules they had provided for that purpose.

SALAMANCA, J U NE is. According to accounts received by the French Pa. pets, the convoy taken by Mina, on the other side of Victoria, was much more v.duabie than it was said t• be. In money and bars of gold and silver, there were 18 millions, and in diamonds two millions, with other valuable effects. The morey intended here is not specified, but it is supposed to be reals. It is said that the greater part of :hese riches appertains to Joseph, who, by tin, unlucky accident, will be the only Frenchman who will depart from Spain poor, though he had taken enough when it was in his power, and had before sent off something to his wife. THE KING. Ii s 11a.rnstt experienced no abatement in the violence of his disorder in the course of yesterday, and it is not the least painful circumstance attending the. complaint, that his MAJESTY obstinately refuses all suster,ance. Notwithstanding the continuance of these unfavourable symptoms of mental disorder, and great as have been the sufferings of the Royal Patient, we understand that the strength of constitution still re, maining is such as to alleviate the alarming apprehert. sions which have lately gained ground in consequence of the untatourable medical reports. As stated in the STAR of yesterday, the Patna adheres to his re• solution of not celebrating his Birth-thy at •Bi ightms or elsewhere.

They state that three French frigates had been cruizit , g off the Brazils for some time, and had proved succesful in capturing several valuable prizes. From whence these french frigates can have sailed, or to what ports they must convey their captures, except to those of America, it is not easy to say. As soma, however, as intormation was received of the depredations committed by the enemy, Admiral Ds Cooacv, with an adequate farce, west in pursuit of the frigates ; but we are sorry to say, that he returned without having had the good fortune to fall in with them. The Felix, Captain SIMMER, is arrived at Fel. mouth, hom Monte Videis which place she left some time in tke beginning of May. According to a let, ter from a passenger, nothing of contequence had re cently transpired in Ile river Plate. Business was in a complete state of stagnation, in consequence of the hostile preparations gotirg forward in the rival settle ments on both banks of the river. The Squadron under Sir JOSEPH YORKE has bees spoken with aLsea by several vessei:., but we arc still unable to say to what quarter of the globe it is g•.ing.
