Citizen Conftd—Since the laft letters which I had the honour to write to you, nothing has paffed in Egypt. Different fquadrons of the regiment of Dromedaries have traverfed the I)efart, and made incurfions into the boundaries of Syria:— they have taken different convoys; among others One of 300 camels. Each fquadron of Dromeda ries has two 3-pounders drawn by dromedaries. — The works of the corps of engineers and artillery are continued with aftit•ity. All the coall is per fatly armed, from Omen•Fauggio to the Tower of Marabout, to the Well of Alexandria. The forts that furround Cairo are armed. Aboukir is in a Rate of defence. The fort of El-Havah, on the canal of Alexandria, is completed :—lt will contain the magazines, and ferve as a point of fupport for all the movements which the army may have occalion to make, to oppofe a debarka tion. I have opened a Canal of Rofetta on the Lake Borelos. They are digging and clearing all the Canal of Alexandria. The ancient canal, which from the Eyront empties itself into that of Alexandria, is re.cllablifhcd. By this means we tan navigate lh all featons from Cairn to Alexan • dria without palling the Bar of Rofctta. lam perfealy content with the inhabitants. The Fel . laks begin every day more and more to feel the benefit of our protation. I requelt of you re wards for Mot cot) X, Colonel of the Coph tic Legion ; and for the Greek, NICHOLAS PAPAS OGLou, Colonel of the Greek Legion :—they play the greateft zeal and the greatell energy.— The adminiftration of the finances is in the beft rider. I boafl• of the Cervices of Citizen Esrivr. Citizen Tat tire has departed from hence. I have to complain of him :—his conduit has been extremely bad ; lie has tried every means to ftir up difecintent and excite cabals in the army. The Adjutants-General Meant and Git.t.i-Vitox re-' turn to France. You know their long fervices. It is impollible for men to be more brave, and to have rendered more benefit to their country. (Signed) Al. J. MENOU. The General in Chief fends a copy of the letter which he wrote to the Shcrif of Mecca, acquaint ing him that he (ME NOU )was appointed to the chief command of the Army of Egypt, and expreiling a with to renew all the treaties of friencifhip made with him, and to allure him that his fubjetis may come to Suez without any fear orapprehenfion. He adds, that as a mark of his confideration for the Shcrifs, he had diminifhed the amount of the cuf toms which his Cubic& were formerly obliged to pay in that town. By a proclamation of the General in Chief (Mtwou), it is enaded that every caravan laden with merchandize that enters into Egypt and goes out of it without paying the culloms at which they are rated, as alfo all the beafts of hurthen they employ, (hall be confifcated to the profit of ' the troops that may feize them. The General in Chief has alto ordered a kind of gazette to be publithed at Cairo, that is to con vey over all Egypt intelligence of the different asls of the French Government, and to relieve the inhabitants from the anxiety into which they may be betrayed, and to acquaint them with the public events that take place in Europe and in Afia, &e. ARMY OF ITALY. THE GENERAL OF DIVISION, CHIEF OF TILE STAFF, TO THE MINISTER AT WAR. Head-quarter at Motuanbano, Dee. 26. Citizen Miniiier—ln confequence of the opera tions, of which I had the honour of giving you an account, the Commandzr in Chief had given his orders, and made his difpolitions for effeaing the patfage of the Mincio yefterday morning by break of day, on two bridges, to be thrown over oppo fite Monzanbano. The right wing, commanded by Lieutenant General DUPONT, had orders to afcend the Mincio, leaving a corps of obfervation before Goito, and to pretend to attempt a palfage at Volta. Orders were alfo fent to the other divi• lions. Geaeral DUPONT, not perceiving before him any very confiderable force, threw over his bridge, and fucceeded in effeaing a paffage.— The enemy immediately bore down in force to this point, and a very brilk aflion enfued. Our troops Ibilained the (hock with their ufual intrepi dity. The enemy was repulfed and vigoroully purfued. General DUPONT having announced his movement to the Commander in Chief, re ceived orders to maintain his poiltion, but without committing himfelf, and to retire, according to circ um fiances, under the proteaion of his artillery, which was placed on the right bank. During this time the ardour of our troops carried them for ward, and the enemy fixing all his attention on this point, brought up to it the greater part of his forces (according to the report of prifoners, M. de BELLEGARDE was there in perfon). The poll tion of General Do roar became critical. General Soca sr obferving this, did not heiltate to ((such a divifion of his troops, and to march at its head to the fupport of the right wing. The fury of the enemy was extreme. They were greatly fu perior in force ; four fucceffive charges which they made failed againft the intrepidity of our troops. The village of Rozzolo, which was feve ral times taken and retaken, remained at length in our power, and we remained mailers of the field cf battle, after an aaion moil bloody, moil obftinatc t and at the fame time moll unequal. The righting kited until ten o'clock at night. A vigorous charge of the 6th dragoons contri buted much to the fuccefs of this day, which pro duced to us in this quarter zoo° prifoners, and fe vers' flandards. As loon as the particular reports (hall have reached me, I will tranfrnit to you all the details of this affair, which does the higheft honour to all the troops engaged, and to the Ge neral Officers by whom they were conduaed.— The lofs of the enemy in killed and wounded was very confiderable. At the moment of my writing, Citizen Mini fter, I learn that the army has effeaed its paffitge before Monzanbano. (Signed) OLIDINOT. FROM Tilt SAME TO THE SAME._ Head-quarters at Monzanbano, Dec. of Citizen Minifler, 1 had the honour to announce to you this morning, that the army had effcaed the pafilige of the Mincio. This took place moll effectually in the courfe of the day on two bridges thrown over before Monzanbano. The advanced guard, under the orders of Lieu tenant General DP LTAAS, was the firfl to pals, dire ting the two brigades of the right, command ed by Generals Sissom and CASSAGNE, towards Vallegio, and that of the left, under General LA. rust, to Salionze. Thefe movements were exe cuted with the greateft precillon, and after chafing the enemy from all his pofttions, the advanced guard took poll on the heights of Vallegio. The right divifion of Lieutenant General Mow. CEY, commanded by General Bounze, followed and fupported the march of the advanced guard. It overthrew the enemy, took feveral pieces of cannon, and ellablilbed itfclf at night before the village of Fourlano. The centre, commanded by Lieutenant General Svcii sr, returned from the expedltion of yefterday before la Volta, paned the river immediately after the divifion of BOVDFT, and marched to Salionze. The referee, under General MICHAUD advanced and took pelt about a mile and a hal f Mon canbano, on the road to Vallegio. The brigade of referee, under General Sk aR AI, is polled above the divifion of BOVDAT. The cavalry, under Ge neral D A VONT, is in obfervation at the head of the bridges. General Dormer has received orders to advance from %rank, whets be relied IA night, on the road to Vallegio, afeenclhl the left bank of the Mincio. I regret, Citizen milker, that I cannot give you more details, but the rapidity of the move menu, neceffarly retards the arrival of the reports; I therefore limit myfelf at prefent to inform you, that the pallage was attended with the culla lim ed's, and that all the troops engaged in the affair have covered therafelves with glory. Too much praife cannot be given to the bravery and aaivity FAILIL with which our artillery was terra, or to the pon tooners Ivho eflablifhed the bridges. The *lige was proteled by 40 pieces of ar tillery, placed under the diredion of Genetal MAR mow r, Chief of the Artillery. The refult of this day is nearly SOOO prifoners, a quantity of artil lery, and the polfellion of all the enemy's redoubts and pofitions. This prefages to us, that to-mor row will be a day even more glotious and more brilliant. (Signed) Ountmor. The Minifter at War, BLILTNIER. • GALLO BATAVIAN ARMY. THR OI.IikRAI OF DIVISION, PROVISIONARY CHIEF OF THE STAFF, TO THE MINISTER AT mum, AT Head-quartere at Nuremberg, Due. ay. Citizen Minifter—l am about to prefent you with fome details concerning the battle of Nurem berg, which took place on th e 18th of December, and the events which have followed it, together with the prefent pofition of the army. In eftablifh ing itfelf upon the Rednitt, the Gallo-Batavien army had le ft sOOO men before Wurtzburg. sit here occupied the points Afchaffenburgh, Lahr, Geinemden, Schweinfurth, and Ritatengen. The Rednitz is not an obftacle but when the waters are high 1 but the heights upon its left bank are very favourable for defence. The &sera' in Cnief guarded this line to an extent of twelve leagues front Nuremberg to Bamberg. Such a pofition deferved to be fludied. The General in Chief, afterhaving laid down the plan of operations which he would purfue in cafe of a reverie, gave to his Aid-dtt camp, Chef d'Efeadron, RICHER, an of& cet of very great diftinaion, the command of a corps of obfervation, which he marched to Midi back, near the line of neutrality ; he threw 400 men, with three pieces of cannon, ism Bamberg, concentrated the reft of his forces between For cheim and Nuremberg, occupied Forcheim and i Nuremberg as tetes-duptint, fixed his head-quar ters at Herzogen-Aurach, propofed to himfelf to I , harafs the enemy on the left, that he might be in readinefs to aft on the principal line of operations, ordered the garrifon of Bamberg, if it Should be forced, to fall back upon Eltman, Schweinfurth, &c. and, in this cafe, he likewife determined to abandon to the enemy the great road from Barn berg to the Mayn, by Clotler-Eberach, after having taken the precaution to colleft at Kutzengen all the boats and wails which might be on thellayn between that city and Schweinfurth. On the isth, the General in Chief learned that the corps of KL!NAU had fet out on the i 3th from Ratifbonne, in order to form a janaion with that of SI MISCH EN, and that Ktsmatt carried along with him the two famous partizans of theAuftrian army, the Counts WALMODIP/ and Dem tEltf. The General had no doubt that he would foon have to contend with a very confiderable force. The Ge neral in Chief fct out immediately for Wvrtzburgh, and not attaching to this poll more Importance than the enemy had done, converted the attack into a blockade, and ordered that all the troops fet at liberty by this new difpofition, fhould repair im -1 mediately to the fcene of aftioin He iffued orders, bcfides, that the evacuation and every thing which might impede his movements Should take place in the rear of the army. Before his departure the General in Chief had ordered Generals Do HISMI and Pita Lox to pafs the Rednitz, and to pufh re -1 connoitering parties, and to try to difcover the po fition and the flrength of the enemy. The General returned on the i 7th ; he was concerting his dif pofitions with Generals DUHEEMIE and BAMBOO, when a heavy cannonade was heard from Altorf and Neukifken. The advanced guard of the di. vifion of BARBOV, feparated into two reconnoiter ing parties, was marching to Altorf and Neumark, where it was met by the advanced polls of the ene my, and an engagement took place. The corps dircfted upon Altorf inconfiderately purfuing the enemy with great (laughter, afforded time to a co lumn of tOOO infantry and 300 cavalry to fall upon the corps which marched towards Neumark. This left corps not being able to fupport itfelfagainft a force fo fuperior, was promptly affifted by General of Brigade Fu MLR who marched at the head of ithe 3d battalion of ? the 1 1 th light, and for fome time refined the advantage to our men. The Chief of Brigade WAT HI YR, who was near Al torf, maintained his pofition with obllinacy upon the height of Fifchback ; the enemy every mo ment received reinforcements from the neighbour -1 hood of Neurnark, which again rendered the fitua tion of affairs uncertain, when General PACTHOD received orders from General BARIUM to advance with the reft of the corps, compofed of the gallant 49 of the 4th drapoons, and four pieces of light artillery, to difpatal a column to the of flance of General Fe 7 I 2 R, and to march with the other to wards Fifehbach, to join the chief de Brigade WA r a ill. Thefe two movements being executed with equal boldnefs and celerity, the enemy were put to rout in all direftions, and left the field of battle firmed with killed and wotinded. In at tempting to retreat to Fifcboach, they fell upon the fire of a battalion of the advanced guard, which completed their defeat. The enemy loft t 200 killed or wounded, and 300 ptifoners. Our lois confifts of 3o killed and iBo wounded. The di vision of Lieutenant-General DVHESME, which had before it the whole force affembled under Ge neral SIiIIISCH EN, was likewife attacked. This General fcemed inclined to force the left of the di vifion. The engagement took place between the advanced guards near Graffenberg ; that of the enemy, notwithflanding its great fuperiority, ob tained no fuccefs, and General Dv it LSI.' L main tained his pofitions. On the toth, the General in Chief being ac quainted with the firength of the enemy, iffsed or ders for the Army to move towards the Rednitz, and take up its former position. Since the affair of the t Bth, the line has been attacked upon feveral points every day ; the enemy has every where found an invincible refiftance. In mewing the retrograde movement behind the Rednitz, Lieute nant-CA-n.1)1, a z sm r wasattackedbyM.Ss Kase is se, who had hccn joined by fume battalions and (qua 'drons of thecorps of Klemm. This diviGon fought bravely the whole day, and is the evening re- Cussed its pu fi tions ou t he Rednitz. The Frullians had formelly oppored the occupation of Fut° , which conneded our right with Nuremberg.—_ The General in Chief, not witting to interrupt tla harmony and good underflanding which tubGu between the two nations, ordered General BA Rao t. to evacuate Nuremberg, and to carry ad vaccel guard to Wach ; which was done on the evening of December 22d. The enemy have not appeared before Bamberg. They have kept contlantly on ourright, which they have tried to turn, but in a very timid manner. There are beyond the R c d. nitz Tome detachments who have pulped par ties as far as Stein. l'he Gellert' in Chief feels little uneafinefs at thefe demontiratiens ; and al though Herzogen-Aurach was more a liation of partizans than headquarters, he has not changed becaufe, in cafe of a reverfe, And after the lice of operations which ischad thofen, this point ha_ came the centre of bir motions ; he found himPf in a better fituatibn to become acquainted with thofe of the army of the Rhine. The General is Chief had his attention conflantly turned to the Danube{ he had no doubt that General Lsr 41- nua, informed that KLIVAU had withdrawn the Garrifbn from Ratilbonne, to march a,gainfl the Gallo-Batavian army, would improve this circian- Rance to expel the few troops who remained in it, and get polEffion of this important polition. Our emiffaries and re-connoitring partici had been fin of between Rednitz and the Danube; the Gene ral in Chief impatiently expected the return of a confidential officer, whom he had fent to General LE VA VI! ; this officer arrived this morning; he has related, that, WI the 23d, General Levasseve marched upon Ratifhonne, but that he was not to attack it till the 24th ; thus then there Is noldoebt that Ratitbonne has been occupied bS the army of the Rhine. What places the matter beyond all doubt, is, that at three this morning, SI MEW Hlll And KAEHAU began to retreat with 12,000 *lain try ; the greateff part of the cavalry had filed oft on the right by Neumark. KLEMAU having loft Ratifitonne ' the line of the Nae cau no long ..r be maintained by him ;be has nothing left b u t to evacuate the Upper Palatinate, The General it Chief immediately fent the fame officer to Lie ute4 nant-General Wismar, to perfuade him to make a combined Movement upon Amberg and the Nae, that the enemy may be driven into the defiles of Bohemia. In the mean time the army is in purfuit of KLEMAU and Si MIISCI4 EN& We have re-entered Nuremberg. The army is ready to undergo freili fatigues, to march to new battles, and to fetk an enemy worthy of its courage. Health and refried, (Signed) ANDREOS,E. P. S. General DUMONCFAU, commanding the troops which blockade Wurtzburgh, this moment announces, that on the 17th, the enemy made a vigorous fortie upon his pofts, and that the firing continued two hours and a half, .with an incredi ble (laughter on both fides; but the enemy sec repulfed, and obliged to re-enter the body of the place in diforder, with confiderable loft. The di vifion of Do/40WCYAIJ had in this affair five men killed, of whom ono was a Captain, and near limy wounded. A true copy. • Amu". statif PARI4JAIICARY REPORT NAVE IT Till Patin? OF !IWO TO THE CONSUL! OP TII/1 Pads. ralluart 316 Citizens Confuls-- 11 On the tath September a confpiracy was difcovered.—Brigades were organ ized and concluded by Chiefs. Different public houfes, but more particularly one at the corner ol the ftreets La Loi and Louvois, ferved as rallying points. The confpirators had their fignals and their watch words, After having fully concerted and propofed all their means of execution, it was refolved that the Chief Conful fhould be facrificed ; on his coming out from Come of the Theatres, a tumult was to be raifcd to favour the affaffination. Chapelle was to have given the final, and Hum bert was to ftrike the fatal blow with a dagger.— Thefe two men have been arrefted, and they and their accomplices Guibett ' Dufour, Perrault, and Sallabert, were lodged in the Temple. " On the 3d of Odober, Metge, and Deferue, the printer, were arrefted. In the polfelfion of the former were found writings of the molt atrocious tendency. The object of all of them was to call down a deadly blow upon the head of the Firfli Magiftrate of the Republic. Among thefe libels fome were intituled, The Tari*The ftench soliGer —The Democrat, &c. a glance at which is fufficient to difcern the malignity of their intentions; nor is it very credible that the odious authors of them contented themfelves with writing. On the loth of Odober, fome new projeas were on the point of breaking out. Large fums of money had been diftributed, and prdmtfes 11111 more ample were made. It was refolved that BONAPARTE fhould meet the fatal blow at the theatre of the opera. Diana, Ceracchi, &c. were or. refted at the moment th*plot was to be executed. Shortly after DemerviUe, Arena, Lavigney, Dar rey, &c. were fecured, and even the lurking-place of Topino Lebrun was at length difcovered. The different individuals who had been implicated in thefe different plots, were all brought before the Public Tribunal. Thole who were involved in the confpiracy of the toth of Odober, are the only perfons who have been tent before a Jury of accufation. Metge, Humbert, Chapelle, &c. remain in the Temple, and no indidment has yet been made out againdthem. But very few days had elapfed, when Crab information was received. Certain men, who pant for nothing but anarchy. were watched and difcovered. One of them was employed in the confirudion of a Orange machine —nor was it caly to fecure his perfon. Being far from his ufital refidence, it was neceffary to difco ver the place which he had chofen for the execu tion of his black defigns. It was at length, how ever, difcovered that he bad concealed himfelf in the houfe Blanes Martesux. " On the Bth of November, a Cornmiffary of Police, accompanied by an armed force, went thither, went up into the Cecond floor, and knocked at the door pointed out to them. They received no anfwer. A lockfmith was Cent for, hut the door was partially opened, and that with difficulty. 1, ..'T. I by ~ Pi 21 lfg in al
