(Signed) " CARL. WORRIER. " Stockholm, Ist October, 1812." ge E. S. WESTRIN. ST. PETERSBURGH, AUG. 51, (SEPT. 11.) After the procession from the Cathedral Church of Casan, to the cloister of St. Alexander Newski of the Holy Trinity, his Imperial Majesty, with theft Majesties the Dowager and reigning Empresses, iris klighnesi the Czarowitsch, and their Highnesses the Arch-Prince and Arch-Princess, attended high mass there ; after which the President of the War Depart ment, Lieutenant-General Prince Gortschakow, read the intelligence received from the Commander-in- Chief of the Armies, of the 27th of August, ( * Sept. S.) concealing the victory. After which a psalm of thanksgiving was sung with bended knees, and le Doan laudanum performed. ' I From the Sr. PETERSBUGH GAZETTE of SEPT. 7, (18&) We have with pleasure herewith to render the public a few lines of a private letter, which was sent from the Head-quarters of uur army, on the 26th of August (Sept. The day before yesterday was a battle of heroes ; ye s terday was a trifling skirmish; but this day again a combat of heroes. The earth shakes at a distance of 1/3 wersts. Ti.e particulare you will learn from the statements wuich have been sent from the artily ; but I will merely assure you for a fact, that on the first day, whiht the Commander in•Chief was visititg . the positions cf the army, an eagle hovered over its head. Prince Michailo nowitsch took his hat tsff, and all gave a joyful huz zah." When the Russians go to battle, like the ancient Rowans, it is impossible that the eagles should not hover over them. FRENCH PAPERS. PARIS, OCTOBER 11. Letters from Moscow, of the 23d ult. mention, that the Emperor constantly enjoys the best health, and that the army continues to take that repose which it has gained by its brilliant successes. Among the poblic ceremcnies which excite the highest interest, we must distinguish that which unites all ranks of citizens at the foot of the altars, to raise their grateful voices towards HEAVEN, and to render thanks for those brilliant triumphs which change the fate (f empires, the never•to-be effaced recollections of which are an inheritance of glory to nations. Never were these great solemnities accompanied by more noble, or more affecting circumstances, than those v.hich we witnessed on the 4th inst. One of the finest mornings of autumn opened on the capital of the great empire. Numerous groupes of citizens filled the squares and public walks, com municating to each other with eagerness the impor tant news which had just arrived from the centre &f Russia. A double sentiment animated all hearts.— The indignation excited by the atrocities of the bar barous ltostopehin, was mixed with the admiration inspired by the invincible courage and heroic gene rosity of the Conqueror. Every prepara Lion i was made in the Imperial Chapel fbr the religious solemnity about to take place. A numerous concourse of spectators filled the body of the chapel, and the galleries were embellished by the presence of the most distinguished Ladies of the Court. On the countenances of the mothers and wives, whose husbands and sons devoted to the ser vice of the Monarch, support, under his auspices, the honour of the. French name, might be read the ex pression of joy and of hope. . Our feelings, however, were raised to their highest pitch when the Empress and Queen appeared in all the splendour of Imperial Majesty. What an affect ing spectacle for the French,—that of a young Sove. Ireign, with the graces and the virtues in her train, bowing her head before the God of armies, imploring his all-powerful protection for a beloved husband, and offering to Heaven the homage of the noblest and sweetest affections which can animate the heart of a Queen, a wife, and a mother ! After the celebration of mass, there was a circle, at which her Majesty received the homage of the Princes Grand Dignitaries, of the peat Officers of the Crown, the Ministers, and principal public Func tionaries. The Empress , then returned to the Palace of St. Cloud. About two o'clock the people poured in crowds to the metropolitan church, where Te Deum was to be sung fur the memorable successes that had attended the arms of the Emperor since the passage of the Nie men, to the great battle of Moskwa, and the capture of Moscow. At half past two his Serene Highness the Prince Arch-Chancellor arrived in the halt prepared for his reception of the Archiepiscopal palace. He found there the Prince Vice-grand Elector, and the other Chief Officers of State. They repaired in procession to the Cathedral, at the gate of which they were re ceived by the Cardinal Archbiship of Paris, at the head of the Clergy, who walked before them to the places prepared for their reception. Numerous detachments of the ImperiAl Goard, and of the Guards of Paris,, under arms, were drawn up in the body and in the principal nave of the church. In the course of the day there were three salutes of cannon, and in the evening a general illu mination.—What gave to all this religious, civil, and milita*rpomp an august and national character, was the enthueiasm which animated all the spectators.— ] Every one felt proud of being a Frenchman.; and associated himself at least in idea with the exploits and the glorious devotedness of that great army, whose triumphs will abtoniai the most distant poste rity. While reflecting on the acts of inhumanity which disgraced the public functionaries at Moscow, they felicitated themselves on the triumph of civilisa tion over barbarianisf hecoisni over teroc4, This formed the subject if every conversant s. Europe; it was observed, vrtud . no longer fear a second - • ,sion of those barbarians of the North, who on ce lore extinguished the sacred "torch of reason and d e arts. Never again will they introduce among us thin e I miserable superstitions, their ignorance, and theie ferocious manners. Europe, which these incendi ar y hordes of Tartars had threatened, now vanqu i l e 4 der the aegis of French valour, may securely itself to industry, and the improvement of the 4% which do honour to na ti ons , and embellish the exit enceof men collected in society. The age of mil. tayy glqry shall also be the age of the arts. Qeneral Rapp is one of the Officers who 1, 11 wounded in the battle of the 7th. He was on duty with the Emperor, when General Compass y ; wounded, cf whose division his Majesty ordered hi en to take the command ; but he soon received typo wounds from a pistol bullet, one in the arm, the other in the thigh, which was, moreover, grazed by a can. non-ball. Nevertheless, the General did oo t a b an. don his post, hut continued to command hie diyition with his accustomed bravery ; a spent b a p * am struck him on the left hip, caused him to WI fro m his horse, and obliged him to quit the field of battle. By good luck he had no bone fractured, an d i s is hoped that he will be able to return to his duty into come of a month or six weeks. THE, EYENOTG STAR . LoNpom. • FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16, • In a Second Edition of yesterday, we had th e hie % satisfaction of communicating the Official Bull et i n issued by Ministers on the subject of Lord CATU. climes Dispatches from St. Potersburgh. The cau, tious silence maintained in the recent French Bulle. tins respecting the positions of the Ruuian armie s , is -now explained—the mist in which the Russians wo o enveloped in the battle of the 7th September,, withstanding the glorious sun of Austerlitz," which rose upon their adversaries—is now dispell e d, The Rsatiaar did not retreat after the Baitk of Najd_ this of itself is most glorious intelligence—they took up a position at Podolsk, twenty miles in front, of rather south, from Moscow.—the very circeuk stance of their being unbroken by the tremendous at. tacks of the-enemy—and the plan of concentration tp which the Hero who commanJs them adheres, sze sufficient to account for the French having slipped past them to Moscow, which they did by three dile. rent routes, according to their own statement. Here then we have 4 gallant, well discipl:ned l Russian army, commanded by one of the most q. perienced Captains of the age, (if 50 years services in the field can entitle KUTUSOFF to that appellatioq) receiving daily reinforcements of men and warlike stores—in the bosom of their native country, and star rounded by their wives and children ! An army composed of men, whose hearts beat with transports of rage and vengeance at the sight of an enemy: and that army, adrakile dictu ! is in a position from ?Alicia it can intercept all communication between the ra vagers of Moscow and their supplies from their owl country. Then there is the army of TORMAEOW, coining of 100,000 men, threatening the communiettions of the enemy with Smolensk ; and there is also a vie. tot ions army under Wittgenstein, on the Duna, also receiving daily reinforcements. After this enttmera. tion, who but the thoughtless inhabitants of Paris will believe that BONAPARTE'S troops are enjoying re• pose in their barracks at Moscow We have always said that, from the very natnre of the Government of Russia, all hopes of destroying the invading army rested upon the will of a single 10. dividual—and that Individual is ALEXANDER. Lord CATHCART'S dispatches afford a most solemn apsq. ranee of the . Emperor's determination to persevere in the contest, and we trust that his Lordship will not be backward in his exertions to keep the Emperor's mind in this position—tor there and only there are we to look for victory. The Russian Courtiers who have long been notoriously the admirers of French princi ples and manners, ought to be most narrowly watched at this crisis.—Siberia or Kamschatka are the cli mates which will suit these wretches best.if the knout or the halter is not resorted to from mistaken motives "of lenity. • We must confess that the perusal of Lord CATR• CART'S dispatches has elated us with the hope, that the next arrival from the North will bring us intelligerl of a still more favourable nature. The conduct a the Russian troops since the commencement of the campaign, has been such, as to inspire us with Fe a t confidence in their future exertions. We repeat the official Bulletin for the henefi' of such of our Readers as did not receive the' * ol '4 Edition if yesterdays "' FOREIGN OFFICE, OCTOBER IS. ra Accounts have been this morning received frog General Viscount CATHCART, dated St. Petersburg'', Sept. 22, and stating to• the following effect: " Marshal Prince KurosorF having with his Army from before Moscow, the enemy 00 1114 it on the 14th.
