- ST. PETERSBURGH, MARCH 20. ADDRESS OF THE OLD MEN OF THE VILLAGES SITUATED ON THE MOSKWA TO MARSHAL NEV. 0" . I el Since the days of destruction and carnage *hick dyed our river with blood, we have buried 60,000 'of your brethren ! A horrible task I It was neoessary to snatch their dead bodies from the crows and birds - of prey. the -sweawrcitrae, our sons, animated by-the paternal blessing, have aided our brave army in driving yofr beyond the'frontleis of our vast empire. We • know that few of sou have escaped death. We know it by your own inbfication's, which have been faithfully translated for us. By one of these publi. Cations we have alsolearned, that your Sovereign has , meta intrPrince of the Moskwa. This has greatly . tmliaztaised nip: in the first place, liecatrie we knitw very well. that never i oare to set-foot:among 'us ; and neif . , 7 bVcituseivre cannot comprehend how a fine Loam (the castle of Rivoli)aiwated as we are told in .a,COlintry where there is no winter, can be converted, into- a principality on the Moskwa,'—for imcng via is Criminal to give a falte name to any person teething. whatsoever. • 6 6 Norertheless, better' informed people have ex plaintti all'this to us. They have told us, that GOD had doubtless struck the heart of hinn who commands ,you, and that he had given you the ti le of Prince of the Mosiiwa, in order that the horrible calamities of which he-has been the author, might never be for gotten, in causing the destruction of 400,000 men whom he compelled to march against us. We ate simple people, but we can judge of what is good and salutary. We hope, then, that to preserve tor ever the recollection of a war which has been so fatal to you, the Emperor Napoleon, who has appointed you Prince, in Italy, of a river that flows among us, and Which we alone navigate, will make as many Dukes, Princes, Counts, or Barons, as he has experienced re. verses in Russia, or been beaten in mass or in detail. This will make a pretty considerable number, and will be a warning to your fellow-citizens in all future ages, that the efforts of ambition are unavailing against a nation which fears GOD, loves its Sot - ereign, and knows bow to fight and die for its country."

" I cannot an yet say when the campaign will open ; there are many reportioniti it is thought that operations are to commence 'in May. 'I am sorry to . inforu you that the Army is sickly, and ' that we have in the hospitals about nine thousand ; the Guards bury from eight to ten men a day at Vizue. The 9th, itch, and 4th reghnents of dragoons are going home. When the campaign opens, the English and Portuguese will advance with sixty thou sand effective men, besides one hundred thousand Spaniards;— end according to the best information, there will be but little fighting, as it is the intention of the French to retire on the Ebro. They are strongly fortifying Buigos." When we, exclusively, stated the fact, a few months since, of the arrival of Lord WM.PpLE at Vienna, most of our contemporaries doubted the accuracy of cur information, and boldly pronounced the story to be a fiction. Since the return of Lord WALPOLE to Lo,idon, however, it has transpired, that his Lord ship was actually three weeks at Vienna before his arrival was known to M. OTTO, the French Minister at that Court; and it is now acknowledged, that the first intimation he received on the subject was com municated from Paris, by the transmission of the article, cut out of the STAII, which announced the important fact. M. OTTO was soon after recalled, with some expressions of the Emperor's displeasure for what he was pleased to denominate a want of vi gilance. But we have reason to believe, that the Cabinet of Vienna purposely concealed Lord WAL• POLE'S residence in Vienna from the French Minister— an omen by no means unfavourable to the pending . negotiations with Austria. • The Kum still continues under the influence of* slight degree of occasional excitement, though his bodily health is unimpaired. Yesterday, at two o'clock, a binet Council was held at the Foreign Office, w sat till between four and five. Yesterday Earl BATlrtrxre gave a grand dinner to the PRINCE REGENT, the Duke of CUMBERLAND, the Cabinet Ministers, and a select party. • Lord WELLESLEY has for some days past been confined to his hour by severe indisposition. Saturday se'nnight, a most magnificent ant sump tuous entertainment was given at the seat of Sir CitaittEs Moncax, Bart. at Tredegar, Monmouth shii e, t,n the occasion of his eldest son coming of age. Upwards of 6000 persons partook of the festivities of the park, and the poor people in the neighbourhood were plenteously regaled with bread and ale. In the evening there was a grand ball and supper, at which almost all the families of distinction in the neighbour ' hood were present. At six o'clock in the morning, pa salute of 21 discharges of cannon were fired at the Naval Temple, on the Kymin-hill, in compliment to the family on this happy event. A Gentle Man reached Town yesterday who has visited Vienna, and on his return traversed Bohemia, Silesia, Brandenburgh, and Mecklenburgh, passing through the armies of this extensive range of country. The Austrians were on the Upper Vistula 60,000 strong, in the best condition. The Prussians were principally concentred at Breslaw and Berlin, and on the whole exceeded 85,000 men, most of them fully equipped, and in the highest spirits. The Russians had not more than about 50,000 men in the vicinity of the Elbe, and the fatigues of the last campaign made them appear to some disadvantage, when com pared with their new companions in arms; but the artillery was numerous and in complete order, and the horses attached to it in fine condition. Prince PONIATOWSKI was at Cracow with 8000 men, in total inaction. Most of the Polish army was disbanded, I and the men had returned to their homes. From Wismar, Lubeck, and other ports in the Baltic, several merchants in Newcastle have last week received communications highly interesting to the public. Notwithstanding the large supplies of corn and provisions demanded for the armies last year, in the North of Europe, their surplus stock of grain is still so immensely great, that wheat and outs have been offered in exchange for our coals and manufac tures upon terms so advantageous, that we may soon expect to have large supplies in lieu of our super abundant mercan. ile commodities. The finest wheat has been offered to be deliveledin that port at 725. a quarter,. or 18s. a boll& and the best oats at Y6S. a qua! ter, or /Is. a boll. following is an extract of a private lettet from.
