FRANCE. PARIS, OCTOBER 9. 4 . The further the armies get from us (fey the let ters from Stra(burgh), the longer intervals mug be expelled between the arrival of the mails, as the pelage of the Black Forel' is not fufficiently fare, and thus the difpatches molt afcend high into Fran tonia, and touch at Spires, to prpceed along tht Rhine to Stralburgli."- According to the Weft accounts from Franconia, the army of Martha' BERNADOTTE had already paffeel the city of Bamberg, and General MArissowr had arrived there, which the fira divilion of his army was already at Ethic)]. This artily from Holland, with the other from Hanover, forms a body of forty-twp or forty three thoufand men, which will cacti a junc tion with the corps of Martha! Davousr, All the Northern letters Rate, that the Cabinet of St. Peterfburgh very much complains of the neutrali ty of Praia, and Wills upon a paffage through Eallern Pruffia ; which, however, will not be grant .ed upon any account. It is alfo pofitively aliened, that, notwithßandinz the Ratements of the German and Englifh Editors of newfpapers, there are no more than two Ruffian armies on their march, being in the whole about one hundred thoufand men, while the whole French force in Germany is eflimated at two hundred thoufand men, and is daily augmenting from the interior. Five per cents. 55 f. 85 c. °ermine. to.--The Lyonefe Guard of Honour has expreffed the cleave which animates it to devote itfelf to the defence of the country, and the lingua perfon of the head of the State. Thefe feutiments have been communicated in an addrcfs which has been forwarded to the Minifter of the Interior. An Extraordinary Meeting of the Senate was held yefterday. It is reported that this fitting was held for the purpofe of deliberating relative to the junElion of Liguria; and to confirm, in the prefence of our enemies, that meafure which has ferved for a pretext to their jealous ambition, but in adopting which the Government has confulted only the intereft of the people, and the di/Wes of an enlightened policy.— This noble energy is continent with the French Se nate, to whom every thing prefages vi&ory. It would equally be confiftent with the dignity of the French Senate were we to experience reverfes, which • will not happen. The Roman Senate fold at a high . rate the ground upon which HANNIBAL had encamp ed at the gates of Rome. This example of the Ro mans would be imitated by us, fhould it be neeeffary ; but it is more probable that the Auarians and Ruf fians will not even behold the frontiers of the territory, the poffeffion of which they difpute with us. • The Viceroy of Italy has iffued a decree, dated September z 6, direaing the eftablifhment of a Spe cial Tribunal, for the trial and punifhment of any perfon who fhall form plots againa the State, and the civil arrangements already eflablifhed. The Tri bunal will refide at Milan, and will confift of feven Judges, againa whofe decifion there will be no appeal. FRENCH AND DUTCH JOURNALS.

BERNADOTTE'S army arrived here yeflerday. This day it began to Parch for Bambesk,. Several Bavarian regiments, particularly that of the Archduke CHARLES, who commands one company in perfon, arc, together with the Bavarian artillery, united at Wu. tzburg. The Eldlor of Bavaria has delivered the lowers Of Wurtzburg into the hands of Marihalßsasou, Do-yr a, whereupon Count de Bout. CHALIEN9T9CI quitted that city, and repaired to the head.cparters at Mena iningen. The Bavarian corps, under General DUROC. which had withdrawn into Upper Bavaria, has re• tired into Franconia ; fo that the whole concen trated Bavarian army has formed a juation with the French. It was on the z9th of September that the French troops entered the Wurtemburg territory. Marfhal Nsv arrived to day at Pforzheim with a eonfiderable body of infantry and cavalry, and on the 3oth he was in the environs of Stutgard, where other corps arrived from Fredennadt and Nagold, and effeaed a junction. On the 3oth of September near eighteen thoufand French troops bad arrived at Stutgard. Another di •ifion, confining of four regiments, arrived the fol- lowing day. The march of troops continued there. on the IR of Odober. The Generals trey, Dupont, Loifon, Mather, Dutaillis, Royer, and others, were at Stutgard. Prince Musar, Marfhal Lammas, and many other Generals, were expeiled on the ad of October, with a conficlerable army. They write from Carlfruhe, that the patTage of Am French troops through that capital and its vicini. ty wahines without interrrptlem. Th.,re tronps come' over the Rhine at An, three leagues from Carlfruhe. On the t9th September a large train of :,:t.:;ery paf fed by, on the scth a fine regiment of cuu shiers std fome infantry entered the defiles. On the rft of OEtober Marfhal Law: Es was at Carifruhe. The divifion of General OUDIROT, which had,direaed its march towards the Valley of Cern-. fpach, is gone to the Wirtembnrgh territory, the whole Irriperial Gaard was then in that neighbour hood. On the t ft of OStober a large body of French troops, confihing of eleven regiments of infantry, and four of cavalry, with a great deal of artillery, paned through Ettlingen. On the tit and ad of Oft Ober fome French troops left Stutgard ; on the 2d, in the afternoon, Marital NEY infpetled the grand army in that neighbour hood ; on the fame day, the French troops entered Effinger., Rochingen, &c. On the other hand, the Auftrian troops were fun at Tubingen, and at Gop pingen on the tit of this month. On the sd of Oc tober 16 regiments of dragoons arrived fucceffively at Stutgard, and on the fame day ma:•ched in a di reStion towards Goppingen and Ulm, with all the troops that were left at Stntgard. The army of Marihal Devouu arrived at Heil bron on the 2d of Oelober, taking the direftion of Giengen. On the 3d of alober the troops were informed of the Emperor's proclamation to the army. On the 28th and 29th of September the army of Marlhal Soots had already arrived at Bruchfal and Bretten, in Southern Suabia. _ _ In confecinence of the march of the French troops, feveral movements have taken place in the Auftrian armies in Suabia, as well as in Bavaria. A confiderable army is affembling between Nord lingen and Eichtladt ; the column of General KFts- MAYER, v.hich has palled the Danube, forms a part of it. Confiderable movements have taken place in the environs of Ulm and Gunzburgh. The Generals Mace and GREENVILLE, who arrived at Ulm on the 3oth September, from head quarters, left-that city on the fame day. On the 25th and 36th of September, the Auftrian head quarters were removed to Mindelheim. According to official intelligence, the Ruffians will [ change their deftination at Brunn, and enter into Bo hernia; fo that one of their corps (hall penetrate by Waldermunchen into Upper Bavaria. From this account it appears to be falfe, that their fiat column was-arrived at Lintz ; it could only be there about the middle of Oaober. All the Auftrian troops are concentrating them [elves- near the Adige. A confiderable part of the troops of the. Elec tor of Saxony is placed upon the war eftablifhment. Sweden has invited the Court of Copenhagen to I join the coalition againft France. This demand has been formally declined by the Danint Government. On the 2d of October, his Majefty the Emperor of the French proceeded on his journey from Ettlingen to Louifburg. At one in the afternoon, his Majefty arrived at Durlach ; an immenfe crowd fur rounded his carriage to fee that Monarch, who put liis head out of the coach, and enquired after the conduit of the French troops.

The Ba• varian army, which now fount the ectremity of the left wing. had broken up on the 3d from Bamberg and Forcheim ; its head quarters were at liernogen Aurach on the 4th, and the troops marched by.the way of Weillimburgh and EiAlladt. towards the Danube, in the direaion of Ingoliladt. The army of Hanover has advanced towards Neuburgh, by Offenheina and Winzheim. .On the 4th it arrived at Anfpach. . • .

FROM THE HAMBURGH MAIL DUE ON SUNDAY LAST. HAMBUIGH, letters received here by the Salt poll from St. Peterfburgh, give the molt unequivocal affnrances of the very alive part which the Ruffian monarch takes in the prefent Continental war. On the at ft ult. his Majefty left his capital to join the army under the Commander in Chief, M om st.soe ; and on the 27th he had already reached Brzec, in Lithuania, accompanied by a great number of Generals and Adjutants. F'ons tlii. latter place he detached his Adjutant General, Major General Prince DOLGORUCRY, to Berlin, with a letter, in his own hand writing, to the King of Pruffia, probably relating to the conference which is to take place between the two Sovereign-. I r:nce CZARTORINSKY, the Minifter for Foreign Affairs, ad interim, assort panics ALEXANDER, who on the 29th ult. difpatched . another Courier to Vienna from Pula w, the renitence of Prince CZARTORINSKY'S father. His Majefty will, it is raid, meet the Emperor of Germany at Vienna, where feveral (bites of apartments have been fitted up in the Burgh or Palace. The Emperor travels night and day. The accounts from Berlin of the sth inn. confirm the arrival of Prince DocaoaUCKY with the Emperor ALEXANDER'S letter. The Prince., after being, according to etiquette, introduced to Count HAI HEIBERG, the Pruffixn Minifter for Foreign Affairs, delivered the letter to the King at a private audience. The King of Pruffia's departure in meet the Ruffian Monarch was expeded to take place on the 7th or Bth init. at which time he expeted the return from Wilna of his Adjutant Major HAAR, whom he had fent with a letter, in his own hand-wtiting, to the Emperor of Rullia. His Imperial Majefty of Germany and Auntia ar rived at' ienna on the zgth ult. on his return from his army. The States of Hungary have offered him an army of referee of too coo men, thofe of Bohemia one of go,ooo, and Maria one of 150,000 ; making, in all, a referee of 34.0,000 men. ST. PITIRSBURGH, SETT.

The Ruffian army already marched amounts to 320,000 men. The ar my of referee eunfias of 300,c00, and a general re cruiting has taken place, which is to produce 250,000 more. BANKS OF THI VISTULA, OCT.

If the war Ihould commence in Italy, we eipth a vifit by the Englifh from Malta, and by the Ruffians from Corfu. Our ftrong citadel will probably be the;r firft objeet. At Malta there are 17,000 troops, including two Swifs regiments. The fortrefs of La Valette is pro vifioning for feveral years, to hold out a long liege, if required. The Maltefe are very glad to have the Englifh among them, as they bring a deal of money into ciiculAtion. LONDON. VRTDAY, OCTORER Sr. Lacs.--Holiday.

THE HAMBURGH MAIL Due on Wednefday, which has this day arrived. The 11111Intralitywhich the Kirag of Pa us six bound himfelf to attaititaita;'hy 'force, if neceffary, is laughed at by his new made Impel ial brother, BONAPARTE! The French aernyastaster the command of Marthal BERNADOTTE, tnefilling of 20,000 Men, paired in two columns, on .the 3d of October, through the Margraviate of An fpacb, in fpite of the reprefentations of the Pruffian Generals and Miniflers ; and it is undedlood that the army of General Mazatoir, joined by the Ba varian troops, is to take the fame road. Major HOWEX, at the head of his fqnadron, offered to oppofe the paffage of the French, but General •KELLERDIANN, at the head of 800 men, declared that he would pats by force. The reprefentations of Barou SCHLAGIN, the Minifler of his Pruffian Majefly, were equally in vain. The French Generals declared that oh* bad pojtive order: to ejl their march through the Mar. graviate. We fhould not be furprifed if this outrage 'hoed have the effeCt to make the King of Plana imme diately join the confederacy ; for this is a very dif ferent cafe from troops entering Swedilh Pomerania, a country over which he has no fovereignty. Here his own territories arc aftually invaded, the Margra viate of Anfpach having become, by purchafe from the Margravine, a part of the Pruffian dominions. — We wait with impatience to know how the intelligence will be received-at the Court of Berlin. The interview between the Emperor ALEXANDEIR and the KING of PRUSSIA, hat probably taken place at Wilna before now, as the latter was to leave Ben lin on the 7th or Bth instant fcr that purpofe. His Imperial Majeßy of Germany and Auftria ar rived at Vienna, on the agth ult. on his return from his army. The States of Hungary have offered him an army of referve of too,ooo men, thofe of Bohemia one of goanoo, and AO! is one of iso,ooo ; making, in all, a referve of 34.0,000 men. Another eircumllance worthy of rematk, men- Cloned in the accounts by this Mail, is the melt of fome Foreign Minifiers and their barite at Stutgard, by order of the . Freneb Government. , It appears that it . was not without a jug ground of-fufpicicn, that the Court of Vienna refufed granting paffports to the French Minifter, till it fllould learn that pal posts had been granted by France to the Auflrian Ambaffador and fubjedts. The following are the only other articles worthy of notice, received by this Mail : . Spyrcetri, OCT. S. —The French troops are marching on ,all fides,. from the Rhine to the Da nube. ' This city, and all the environs, are full of troops. The French have publahed that war is de dared.. It is laid that the head quarters of the French will be transferred to Louifborg. The Emperor took .up his refidence there in the night of the zd of this. month ; loon after which, and the publication of war, a courier arrived here from Loui(bwg, and two foreign Miniaers, with their faur Secretaries et: Lkation, and a Counfdlor . of State, and Charge d'Affaires, were immediately arrelled. They are n't permitted to go out, nor to fpeak to any perfon what• fuer. er. • MENTZ, OCT. s.—ln a few days the fix principal corps of the great army which is rapidly advancing towards Swabia and Bavaria, in the dire Sion of Neuberg and Ingolltadt, will have formcd a junc tion.

It is confirmed that the Eleeors of Wurtern i . , : - and Baden, as well as Bavaria, have joined 11—; troops to the French. BANKS OF THE REDNITZ, OcT. 5.---Yetlerday ternoon a Bavarian column of tfi,ooo men inf..nt•r and cavalry from the camp at Forcheim, appeared nnexpededly before Bayerfdorff, and prepared ra es ter the Prufllan territory.
