We ate told, 41 his Majesty has not time to write, btu he k very Well." But let us proceed to the details of military opera tions, such as they aid. On the 17th, hostilities re; commenced : His Majesty entered 13oliernia on the 19th, and pushed on his troops towards Prague. He thought to surprise the Allied Aimies, but they me ditated a similar attack at the same moment upon his own position at Dre'sd'en. His success upon the Bober is belt darkly alluded to—his attention is sud: Only called off to the Elbe; and he marches with his Guards upon Dresden, at the rate of ten leagues a day. He entered the Saxon capital do the morning' Of the 26th, and at three o'clock a combined Rusiian, Prussian; add Austiiad army, 150,000 strong; under Generals . WlTOrtirtklN, KLEIiT, and SCHii/ART ZEN de;:sloyed against the tOwn. Their onset must have been ditiaciftil, if we are to helieite the Prenci: Statements t 4000 of the Allies were killed at the foot of the redoubts, and 2000 were taken prisoners. Night closed Upon these transactions in the morn ing, by four o'ClOcki'Bousrativz was staid upon the gratifri, althotigh the tid fell in torrents. The Dukes of ittousi and BILY.LDNO (ManssoUT and Vicroa) passed the bridge of Dresden with their corps, and a brisk cannonade commenced. The French say they were the assailed% and that the ene my's eatreine Itfi reds cbiriposed entirely di Austrian troop's: It was attotini by it combined force .under the orders el the Kin of NAPLIS. If tile Austtians were hemay why not tell tut so ?—But they were Ant defeated—for Bonestadve *mulls ib bread= in the eventrig,teeinning 13;000 Men as part of the trolthiu of the day, bdt wheikver these Were killed, wounded, or prisoners, we know not. While all this was trans acting, General VANDAMSIE seized the heights of ?irna; and retideted hitnself Master of the deboiiches o r Bohemia. Here we have a singular acknow iedgerhem: homtr i cars bad alriady beaten the Allies at Roiisburg . and Gabel, and driven them from their fine positions on the Sober; leaving a . powerfnl army there tuidei the Duke of TAREN NO* Perna is in the high road to the Bober ; it was the road which BONAPARTE took when he left Dres den for Silesia, a few days before—strange then that VANDAMME'S services should be required in that very direction where all waS Safe. The fact is, BONAPARTE 1 1 as been unrnersifully beaten—so distracted that he toul'd not *rite a Bulletin. Nearly surrounded at l'cruay iitd forced to retreat upon Dresden—first, from the Bober ; and subsequently after crossing the bridge at rhesdea to make a desperate attack upon the Allies on the 27th.

We are sorry to announce the loss of the William Miles, one of the Jamaica fleet, antt having success fully escaped the perils of thesea and of the enemy, and when she might be said to have been almott within sight of the mansion of her owner, J. P. Woes, Esq. of Clifton. The accident which betel her took place upon ler entrance into the upper and small lock of the Cumberland Basin, en Wednesday afternoon. The William Miles and the Sarah, both vessels of heavy burthen, had ieft Kingroad within two days of the lowest. neap-tide, with their full cargoes, and both arrived within a few minutes of each other, at the entrance of the basin. The William Miles pointed to the upper lock, and had entered within two yards df her stern, when a press-gang from the Excel/octant, • the receiving-vessel in the river, made their appeal.- ance on the sides of the lock. The William Miles was immediately deserted; and having entered the lock when the tide was ebbing, and being 1 burthenionte ship vith a remarkable convexity in hei hold, upon the reflux of the tide, she was suspended between the sides of the lock, the bottdm of which forms the segment of a circle, and from the weight of her cargo she immediately bilged. Her cargo of rum is wholly saved, and about a hundred hogsheads of sugar, and cf coarse her sails, masts, rigging, and stores ; the loss is nevertheless immense. The William Miles was the finest s‘)ii , belonging to this port. . .1,
