ROTTERDAM, OCT. at.—Private letters received this morning from the armies Rate, that the French have taken Ulm ; that a grand battle has taken place between the Aufitians and the French : that the for suer have fuffered confiderably : the French have taken sOOO Auftrians, that is the garrifon of Ulm, all their arms, ammunition, magazines, &c. The French have a great number of lolled and wounded. The Auftrians have retreated behind the Sin ; the Ruffians are near at hand. HAG It E, OCT. 20.—0 n the 14th inftant the Coun cil of Finance of the Department of Holland gave public notice to the inhibitants of that Department, that the fifth inflakunt of the extraordinary contribu tion mull be paid on or before the tsth of November next, in the ratio of poffeffions and income, as fixed by the publication of the State Direflory, bearing date the 911 of July, 1804. OCTOBE R is aliened, that the Auftrian Envoy to the Batavian Government will quit this capital tomorrow, having been recalled by the Court of Vienna. We are alto informed, that the Ruffian Legation is making preparations which announce its approach- iny departure. The accounts from the French and the Combined Armies in Germany, which we received at Utrecht on the 22d, Rate, that Ulm was taken by the French. with all the extenfive magazines which the Aufirians were laid to have eftabliffied at that place. It ap pears that a general engagement mull have taken place there, in which the French are Paid to have taken goon prifoners, and a number of cannon, and that the Aufirian army was retreating, although the battle Rill continued at different points. The Moil teurs of the t9th and zoth do not make the leaft men tion of it. P. S. According to a report contained in a private latter from an Officer of rank in the army, we are informed, that the capture of Ulm, by the French troops, is fully confirmed. The anion which was fought in that neighbourhood was moll revere, and the refult was, that at the departure of the latter, the Austrian Army, as the Officer reports, was obliged to give way ; however, Come French Generals were mortally wounded, and the engagement was not • overt we erne& every moment to receive farther intelligence of the final refult ; NAM we dare flatter ourfelves, that it will be glorious for us and our high allies. • The news from the German .Empire, and the in • telligence received by letters from Franckfort to the 39th of Oanber, whilft this Paper (the Hope Comma of °Sober 25), was in the prefs, contain nothing farther concerning the operations of the two hoftile armies; they do not yet fpeak of the engagement at Ulm, nor of that city's being occupied by the French, and continue equally filent with regard to the great • loffes which we know, from the French Bulletins, that the Auftrians have fuffcred. They only con firm, that Munich, as well as the other cities fituated on the prefent theatre of war, being unfurtified places, are evacuated by the Auftrians, and occupied by the French and their allies. Letters from Straubing, of the Lath inftant. Rate, that the firft column of the Ruffian army had effected its juntlion with the Auf trian army on the Inn ; and the fourth divifion of the Ruffian army (according to intelligence received from the banks of the Maine) marched through Btunn on the 6th inflant. LONDON. MONDAY, OCTOBER 28. S r. SIMON AND ST. JUDlew.HOlidly. Since our 'aft we have received Paris Journals to the 23d, and Dutch to the 26th WI which, we are concerned to find filled with details of frell comae: obtained Ly the French armies. A fourth and a fifth Bulletin from the army has been publifbed in the Moriteur, and a letter from 80. NAPARTE to the Prefe& and Mayor of Paris. After the affair at Wirtengen, detaiTed in the third Bulletin (fee the &reit of laft Wednefday) the corps of General NEY advanced againft Gun(burgh, a very ftrong pofition, which might be looked upon as the only fcrtrefs that could prevent the Auftrians from being driven out of Ulm, and wouli give them the means, in cafe of any fignal fuccers, of cutting off the right wing of the French army, and afterwards haraffing its centre fever ely. In confequence of this, the Archduke FeRDINARD nia.e every effort to defend this pofition, againft which the enemy employed their utmoft efforts, and, we arc for ry to add, with complete (need's. Accor ding Cu the French account, the Auftrians, after a difplay of great bravery, lotizsoo men, tzcoof whom were priConers, and fix pieces of cannon. There is, however, a difcordance between this ac count and a paragraph in the fifth bulletin, the latter of which 11.n.,:5, that on the morning of the I ath Pr ince FERDINAND WA/. at Munich. The aainn at Gunfburgh took place nn the toth, and as all the road from Augf burg to Landeberg was occupied by the enemy on the s it!), we do not fee how the Archduke, if he was at Gurdburgh at all, could reach Munich without fort ins coast part of the French line, of which the Bulle• ' tins do not fay one word. The fuccefs of the French at Gunffturgh kerns to have kd to another—the capture of Ulm, with the lofs of feveral thoufand men on the part of the Auf tiians, in confequence of which the Actlrian army retreated towards Upper Suabia. The Archduke FaRDINAND it Paid to have let off for Vienna after this anion. This left affair has not been yet officially Gated from the army, but the illexitear of the zzd mentions the circnnzßance, and accounts for the delay of the official difpatches by fuppofing, that the bearer of them has been retarded in hit journey, from a 'part of the Auftrians having gained the left bank of the Danube, probably for the purpofe of effeaing their retYcat through Franconia. Some of the minor jour nals of the fame date Rate, that the faa had been announced by the telegraph. The Pubficille adds, that 30,0= Auftrians had been killed, wounded, or taken prifoners ; and the Gazette de France fwells the amount to 4.c5000 prifoners.— Thefe, however, are Such grofs and palpable exag gerations of the faa..that it would be a walk of time and fpace to attempt to reafon upon them; betides it is to be obferved, that the Mealiest' of the cad makes no mention of any telegraphic difpatch having been received, but contents itfelf with Rating the mere fad of the furrender of the fo!trefs, in which, no doubt, feveral thoufand men were made prifoners. The Gazette de France fpeaking of the capture of Ulm, Gates, that the Auftrians who eff:aed their efcape were clofely purfued towards the Tyrol, and confi dently predias that the Archduke CH am. a s will &on ly be placed between the army of General MAMMA in Italy, and the grand army in Germany ; while the Ruffians, who are advancing by the Inn, will either fuffer a fate Similar to that of the Atifirians, or be compelled to return immediately to their own country. According to letters from Franckfort, BERN a• DOTTE, who has been joined by the Bavarian troops, is in full march to meet the Ruffian army ; while Martini Sou wr has proceeded to Memmingen. The main body of the French army having pallid the Lech, it advancing upon the Bier. As far as we are able to judge from the 4th and s:h Bulletin, and the details in the minor French journals, the following appears to be the prefent po fition of the armies :—The Auftrians remained firm' in their old pofition, that is upon the left bank of the Bier, with their left at Ulm, and their right at Mem :Mogen. The extremities of this line were diflant about thirty miles from each other. Their advanced ports on the left extended towards the Black Forell, and their right, towards the rear, was fupported by a confide:able corps •under General Auer:mac. Rationed between Stockach and Salmanfweiler.— The whole force of the French was Rationed on the right bank of the Danube, between the rivers Lech and Bier, and confequently between the Außrian army and the Hereditary States. The corpsof Mar fbal Nur, compofing the extremity of the right wing, was ported on each fide of the Danube, oppofiee to Ulm. The other divifions of the Grand Army had taken up various pofitions from thence, more or lets removed from the Auftrian line, to Lancliberg and Memmingen, at the latt of which towns Marital Sputa- intended to be on the t 3th at day break. Two' other divifioss of the French were advanced confider ably nearer the Auftrian frontier; that under BER• NADOTTB having entered Munich on the lath, after having made eight hundred prifoners ; and the corps under the command of DAVOUST having advanced towards Dachan, about twelve miles to the north ward of Munich. It is upon the united force of thole two divifions, amounting at leaft to forty or fifty thoufand men, that BON•PARrIr: molt probably re lies for the prevention of the junition between the Ruffians and Auftrians. We ought, however, to remark, that if we may rely on the unofficial notice in the Mosittur of the 22d, refpelting the capture of Ulm, the circumnances of the Aufitian army teem to have been bettered by Come movements not yet detailed. The reafon affign ed for the non-arrival of the official account of that affair, that "Anne corps of the .dtJlrian: bad gained the l i ft lank of the Danube," and confequently interrupted the route of . the Army Couriers, 1i 4s to be an ad miffion of advantges on the part of the Auflrians not proper to be yet Rated in BoNApallTa's publications. —The fifth bulletin Rated, that General kirs• was polled on herb banks of the Danube, oppofite to Ulm. Are we to fuppofe the whole, or the greater part, or any confiderable portion of the Außrian army to havelucceeded in eluding his vigilance, and by a rapid march to have gained the left bank of the Da nube, and taken up thole very pofitions at Neu burgh, Donauwert, and Ingollladt, which the French had lately qnitted ? So brilliant a movement would not be unwarhty of the genius of FR EDIRICIL the GREAT. The AuMan force was ftrongly concenter. ed on the Bier ; the extremities of the two wings were not more than a good day's march afunder, and there was nothing to oppofe them on the left bank of the Danube but that portion of NEY'S divifion which was polled there. The operation we have fuggelleddoes not therefore appear to be quite impraaicable. By this time we hope, thePrufrtan forces are on their march to the fcene of zillion. If we may credit ru mours circulated in quarters, which ought to be in• formed on fuch a point, official accounts to that elle& have bun received by Government. It i plain that BONAPARTE by the rapidity of his move ments willies to' prevent the interference of Pru from having any effect on the iffue of the prefent cam paign; but the Court of Berlin ulna be aware of the circumflance. and alfo that if he fucceed in this object, the Pruffian territories will form his next objet of plunder and devaftation. This muit late their movements, and we thould think would foon bring them into the field. Lord HARROWBY is the AmbalTador Extraordinary appointed to go to Berlin to negotiate a fublidiary treaty wititthe King of Proffia, as Rated in our paper of Saturday. Mr. HAMMOND is the principal Secre tary to the Embaffy, and Mr. Moor/A:sus Private Se cretary. A Cabinet Council was held yeflerday at Lord MoLcseavv's Office, in Downing-fireet.
