He hid under his command only four hundred regular cavalry) and a body of Cossacks, who performed a march of 75 English miles in 30 hours. When he carne in sight of the enemy, he found that delay would be dangerolis, and, without waiting to rest his brave comrades, he gallopped up to their guns, forced their lines of defence at all points, and literally anni hilated the whole convoy 1 One thousand of the enemy, including their General, were taken prisoners, 700 were killed; and 800 draught horses ) 14 pieces of cannon, and a park of artillery, with the requisite ammunition, also fell into the hands of the victors, who retired in the evening at their leisure with their booty. It is by diversions such as these in the rear of the enemy that the campaign might have been rendered as disastrous to him as that which took place last year. Numerous parties of Russian Cavalry and Cossacks have been left an the Elbe, expressly. for such enterprizes ; and we cannot help regarding them as most formidable checks upon the farther advance of the French army. But it is not the Russians alone who have been thus employed : there is at this mop bent on the shores of the Elbe a corps of three thou sand mounted Prussians and Germans, armed and equipped at their own expense, composed of the higher classes of students in the German Universities, and officered mostly by the Professors themselves, who have sworn allegiance to no earthly Sovereign, but haVe embodied themselves for the express pur pose of delivering their natiVe land from the yoke of foreigners ; and they have already intimated, that they consider themselves as bound by no armistice which leaves the French in possession of a single inch of ground on the German side of the Rhine! Ministers are fully acquainted with the detertnina_ lion of these heroes, for they have been applied to for arms and ammunition to be distributed among the lower classes, by whom they are followed in great numbers. Many of the Chiefs of this patriotic band were in London within these few months—a Dr. AL VIC( K, who was some time ago the bearer of a let ter to the KING Of PRUSSIA, written by the PRINCE RECEN'I'S own hand, now holds the rank of Colonel in this Death or Victory Corps. The celebrated Gaman Professor STEAENS holds the same rank. The debate in both Houses of Parliament on Friday, has put the public in possession, of evidence which must prove to every intelligent mind that we did not go too fdr, when we advocated the terms of the Swe. dish Treaty, with respect to the line of conduct adopted towards Denmark. :.The latter Power has now her own Cabinet only to blame for her present situation. It is unnecessary to recur to the uniform hostile conduct of Denmark to the crowned heads around her, who have been laid prostrate since the French revolution, to Convict her of treason against the interests of Europe. Let us examine, with Lord LivEnroot., her conduct during ,the short period of the last twelvemonth, When BONAPARTE approached the Duna, with his overwhelming army last summer, Denmark was solicited to make common, cause with. Russia—she not only refused but renewed her en gagements with France, gratuitously throwing in a stipulation fot a Danish army to act in Mecklenbdrgh, and thereby to keep at bay any Swedish, or other troops, which might be destined to act against France in that quarter. _ . In September, while the French army was trium phantly advancing to Moscow, another application tv as made to Denmark. To this a laconic answer ivas returned—" Denmark will stand or fall with France."—But mark the consistency of this magnani mous ally of the French Emperor :—When his life wa3 in jeopardy—when the Cossacks were hourly threatening to give the death-blow to the pestilence v.hicli has so long desolated Europa, and reports of his death or capture daily reached the Danish Court, a negotiation was indirectly opened with the Nbrthern Allies; but when the Tyrant escaped from his pur suers, and crossed the Rhine in safety, the profered conciliation was solemnly disavowed On the subject of the proposals which Count Bun s-rout was instructed to make, we have only to say, that the offer of an equivalent to Denmark for Nor way was not only fair and honourable, but a gratui tbus concession on the part of Great Britain and her Allies. While Denmark maintains her alliance with France, Wiriay is a most dangerous weapon in her at barna:it has beta at War With all her neighbours (i. et her nataral ailtei). foi many years) and yet they good-natutedly display a tenderness for the dignity of her Monarchy, which in the eyes of *any politicians Would be considered as highly blame able. Tb the argument that we engage to rob Ger stuttsy hi order to indemnify Detnhark, we hate to anstiver, that it is France (under whese dominion the whole of Germany unfortunately is) which is to be stripped for this indemnity. Those Who apprise the Treaty in Parliament have constantly recourse to the obsoletidnitrines tithe laW of nations. They tell us, that the transfer of Guadeloupe forecloses the principle of restitution in any future treaty with France, and they say that in consenting to the seizure of Norwai,ire are imitating the policy of nonneenrite; , —To all this we answer, that we live in a new era.—;-Why shoulti the States men of the present clay follow without deviation a routine system of polities, which formerly recognised restitution and compensation, when we are at war with a man who never restores any tiling ?—Does his provisioning Glogau for a twelvemonth indicate an intention to deliver up the Prussian fortresses in the event of a continental Peace ?—Hate politicians forgotten that BONAPARTt once said, that if his ene mies occupied the heights of Montmartre, which command the city of Pau is, he would not give back one of the possessions which were annexed to France by the Constitittion of the Empire ? Were the pos sessions recognised by these Constitutions the result of treaties ? When the thunders generated during the French revolution are successively bursting over all Europe) are we to content ourselves like our an cestors with ringing the parish bells and callin,g upon all the Saints in the calendar, and refuse to provent the mischief by the adoption of thunder rods, merely because they were invented by a Republican Philoso pher t—Austria thought differently when she receiv ed, from the hands of BONAPARTg. Venice, which had certainly done far less mischief to France, than Denmark has done to England.—Did not Bavaria take the Tyrol in a similar manner ? But why search for precedents ? Look at the whole conduct of France and her Allies from the commencement of the revolutionary war up to the present hour ! A Heligoland Mail arrived this morning, but, as our Readers will perceive from the following article, it brings no intelligence of Much importance : I , HELIGOLAND, JUNE 14. " Our last. accounts from the opposite coast are of I the 11th instant; they confirm the preceding one of . a heavy contribution having been laid upon the Ham..., burgers, in conseqUence of their conduct during the stay of the Russians in their city : they also say, an . armistice has been concluded for two months between the Belligerents, but give no particulars.

The first act by which the decease of Prince Ku- TUSOFF SMOLENSK° was officially announced, was at the same time an act of munificence on the part of the Monarch. The Emperor ALMANDKR addressed to the Princess, his widow, aletter, dated Dresden, Mayi, of which the following is a translation : " PRINCESS CATHERINE ILINISCHNA, " The Most High, to whom every mortal is subject, and against whom it is not proper to murmur, has been pleased to remove front this lire your husband, Prince Kutusoff Strolensko, in the midst of his high deeds and brilliant glory.

That GOD, who has taken him to himself, will console you, by rendering his name and deeds immortal. A grateful country will never forget the ser vices he has rendered it. Europe and the whole world will never cease to admire him, by placing his name among the most illus trious of Captains. A monument shall be erected to his memory, before which the Russian shall proudly stop to contemplate the Image of the Hero; and strangers will pay the homage of vene ration to a country which has given birth to so great a man. I have ordered that the emoluments he enjoyed should be oontl• sued to you, and ant your affectionate, &c.'
