I , I man, knews no other bond than honourand the law. We have never been told that you thought lightly ot, our valour : that would be too absurd. Amsteten, liellabrunn, Austerlitz, ‘ Pultusk, Eylau, Fried land, are too fresh in your memories. As for tts, we see at this moment merely what ,:e have always seen. Fly before us ! You fled from Swisserland,—you fled from Austerlitz—(happy that you were suffered to regain your own country)---you continued to fly after the day of Friedtand,—and you fly still! We ex petted nothing less ; and it cannot surprise us now. By the most able manoeuvres, your armies are sepa rated and divided from t each other,—your columns wander without a point,—all your intrenched camps are abandoned,—your vast magazines fall into our hands or are destroyed,—the capital of Russian Poland is in our power, and six millions of Lithua nian Poles, confederated with five millions of Poles of the Duchy of Warsgw, lake up arms to demand their rights! Already more than• 600 e of those generous Poles have deserted your camp, and' come to our's. You foresee our retreat :—where have 1 weever beaten the retreat before you ? You hold the I same arrogant laziguitti that you held twenty years ago. There has been *Apia change since in the world.

Where " would this man have stopped, if he had been victo r 1 nines ? You give us your advice to desert ! None litt traitors advise treachery. We will not offer yon that advice : we despite desertion. We will c.ll only to the unfortunate Poles—we will tell them that their country is re-established,—we will tell them to quit the ranks of their oppressors, to come over (and, in fact, they do come, and will more and more every day), and form under the white eagle of Poland, I which led their forefathers up to the walls of Mos cow. We will tell them that the hour of resurrec- 1 tion has sounded for their country •, that the Conic. deration of Poland, under tho Grand Mareschal I Adam Czartoriski, calls them from the service of Russia—and that honour and religion command them to come and take their part in the mighty work of the revival of their country. You oiler us an asylum in Russia. Wh a t, wou ld y ou h ave ns qu it I our lovely land for your horrid climates ?—quit 1 the protecting laws - of a civilized nation, for bondage to the soil and slavery ? "We are men— should we become beasts of burthen ? and what could you give us in return ? Your whole empire in one, would not be o oriti a single province of our's. You talk to us of the conscription—of military tyrauny I The conscription is a law of the land : sixty millions of citizens easily supply the recruiting of our armies. We march because it is the command of the law. But you, pitched upon by the masters whose pro perty you are, you are here for life, without know ing why one has been chosen rather than another, I and simply at the good pleasure, of your Lords. I You are delivered oter by them to the recruiting, as they would deliver bellies or oxen. Military tyranny I ilo you say ? The tyranny is with you, who are I called, and can never rise to rank !..-with you, with I " whom fear, and not honour, is the nerve of disci- • plies! At all events, the hour is not fir off, 'rhea ; . we will give freedom to your brothren,--when we will extinguish slavery in the Russian Empire,—and when we will re-establish ev(en you in your rights. 1 Every peasant shall then be the subject and citizen I t of the State,—he shall be master of his labour and his time,—he shall be no more the property of his , l Lord, like his horses or oxen. Now,then, and thus, I we will solicit you to desert; we will - tell . yon, that Iwears actually fighting for your rights and your fa milies, and that you ought to second us agaihst your 1 1 oppressors. The shivery of man is against his rights; and against his religions. We end, by thanking yes t i ler your communication of your Plan of the Canso paign.

Baron de Humboldt lour Minister at the Court of Austria, from Vienna , and the General of DiViSioll Count de Ca ' mem, from Naples. " Mimeo s JULY U.—The army commanded by Prince Bagration is cut off from that of the Emp eror Alexander, and cannot any more continue its opera. tions with those of the latter. It is said that it is moving towards Mohilow ; but according to all ap. petrances the French will be at Mohilow much sooner than the troops of Bagration. This General has drawn all his troops from the southern parts of Lithuania, by ordering them to come and join him as soon as possible, in such matiner that considerable districts on this side have likewise been evacuated by the Russians. The Austrian Corps d'Armee, commanded by the Prince de Schwarzenbarg, penetrates in this direc. tion towards the Dnieper. The corps of the Russian army, which it was said was assembling on the Iron. tiers of Gallicia, and menacing that frontier with an invasion, is extremely weak, and is not able to on. dertake any thing to operate as a diversion in favour of Prince Bagration. The reinforcements which were destined for him were from Moldavia and Wal. lachia, but under the present circumstances, they cannot even quit those provinces. News had been spited that General Kutusow was arrived within e dozen leagues of sir frontiers of Gallicia, and that he was to take the command of that corps of the Russien army which was under the orders of Torma. soff; but it is now asserted, that this wit a mistake, and that Kutusow has been recalled to the Russian head-quarters. PARIS, Auo 4.—Letters from the army mention, that his Majesty has departed from Glouhakoe on the 23d July, to put himself in front, and continue to pursue the Rufedan army, which has not dared to await the French army in its intrenchments on the Dwina ' and which, by the retreat it appears to make towards Moscow abandons a part of its maritime provinces to the French army.—(Gazette at Francs, Aug. 5.) NAPLES, JULY IL—The Palermo Journal, dried the 29th of July last, contains a Royal Edict, prohi, biting the exportation of corn under the most severs penalties. Could it ever have been beffved, that, at the very moment when the riches of a new harvest should have indemnified Sicily for the privations sad for the horriblefamine of the last winter, that the IGovernment of the Island, oppressed eed despoiled lby the English, should have considered of meanies for preventing, or rather retarding, asecenddistress, still more dreadful than the former. The extreme rigour of this measure proves how verydesolateis the actual condition of the Sidlians. They have not solely to deplore an incredible dearth of provisions, but likewise that of all articles of the trot necessity; from whence an innumerable host of malcontents am every day arising, and complaints and revolts am heard of from all corners of the Isle. Things ere come to such a point, that the fury and violence to which the people have given wdy, are atone sufficient to she* how far the epoch is actually dreadful iR Sicily. Lately, at Catania, the populace, goaded by hunger, by main strength and force of arms, possessed themselves of some remaining provisions which re* found in the public magazines, and this tumult cost the lives of several individuals. At Messina, in the centre of the commerce of Si cily, the weight of misery is, perhaps, still more dreadful. The peopleare in an inexpressible ferment; proclamations distributed about, and fixed up in all the streets excite them to threw off the yoke, and to deliver themselves from the power which oppresses them. Such preventions have doubtless no need of any commentary, but the actual circumstances render every day more remarkable the expedient adopted by the English to obviate so many evils—an expedient which they so well know how to conciliate with the kind of waifare of which they have so often given us proofs. In order to diminish the mass of the consumers, they employ the gallies, they mety the prisons, and vomit on our coasts a heap of those unfortunates, in the hope of exciting some disorders in our prOvinces. But their hopes have beendeceived; . for the individuals which they have sent us, who art usually thrown into the sea in the middle of the night, bale been constiwined to gain the Continent by swimming; where they have fallen into the howls of the Legionary Guards of the coast ; or tithe - miss they have voluntarily presented themselves before the Local Authorities, in order to obeli° it milder des tiny from a clement and generous G o vernment. — i Thug, if those Allies in the prisons and on bo n : the gallies, are reduced to curie England, whet must be the sentiments and the hopes of the upfortunate Sicilian,.

It is remarkable that the main body ;of the French army, united at Oula, where the Dwiva and the Dnieper approaoh nearest to each other, is now at a distance almost equal from Tilsit, the ancient boundary, of the Rus sian territories, f. °ma Pefersburgh, from Moscow,liall from Riovie, le three principal cities of Russian Europe. Orcha, where one of the corps of the Grand Army is at present, is situated on the high road from Wilqa to Moscow, and upon one of the routs which lead from Petersburgh to Riow. The distance from Orcha to Wilna, by the way of Minsk, is about 80 leagues (25 to a degree); to Tilsit, from 133 to 140 ; and to Vaiscovie, by the way of Minsk and Honim, about 70. Orcha lies bpder the metldtan with Petessburgh, and. is 135' le** in a straight line upon the map, but the road is full of windings, on account of the lakes and' marshes betwixt Witepsk and Wellki Laki.--). The following are the distances from Orcha to Moscow, according to th e map of the p os t s : From Orcha to Smolinsk, 101 werstes, or 24j leagues • from Smolinsk to Dorogeha sz , 87 wers t es , or 25.1'leagui•a; from Derogate's to Wiaiona, 77 werstes, or 19+ leagues; from Wisisma tft Mosaisk,4 115 werstes, or 284 leagues; fromtMosaisk to Mos. , cow, 99 werstes, or 244 leagne4, Total ri l liggArat from Orcha to Meskow, 118 0r.119 bargees.. For the lest fifteen' days, the situation of the Russian armies has become more embarrassing. This is abun dantly evident from a glamor at the map. The Em peror Alexander had announced, in his First Bulle tin, that the army, commanded by Miaself in per son, was to form a junction' with that under Prince Bagration. This object has net been attained. The 'Grand Rtissien Army has in vain fallen back from Wilna to Drina, and from Diissa to Witepsk, a dis tance of more than eighty leagues. The corp. of frenth posted , at Order,- has taken each a poeitte, that the Emperor Alexa n d er , at Witepsk , and Prilbee Bagration, .at Moir., cannot exclamige intelligence, except by 1111tielaw and Smolinst, a circuit of 110 leagues; ' Itte military .poiot of Sew; these two ar id have 'leo leery anynidcation, Ant they ; ‘q Wier ce-operate dil e epsit'l It must likewise 4 4k ei4 geed, ihat the env . . plin c et . b ra , din lr droi ii 49 tip. . wiliA !wino! • _ •__ • -_..._ en .
