PARIS, Nov. 17. From the Army of Italy, on the 19th Odober, there is a letter, dated from St. Martino, which states, that the Austrians had been compelled to eva cuate Veronetta.

The glory was re served for the French. Our troops have entered it. An eittaordinary Courier arrived to-night with the news. The Emperor had ant got there—he wished to make his solemn entry, and from thence to return to Munich, to open a Congress for Peace. Overtures have already been snade. Prussia em ploys her mediation, and flaugwitz is to go to Munich. The Russians are falling back to Presborg. earns or rat anima., nor. !S.

The Osumi Haugwitz will go direaly from Ratisbon to Munich. The military operations are continued with the greatest a4livity. A large part of the French army has continued its march into the inte rior of the Austrian provinces. In a short time, Styria, Carinthia, and Carniola, will be occupied by the troops under Generals Bernadotte, Soult, and Marmon. The occupation of BrucW, blurau, and Judemburg, is confirmed. French troops continue their march towards Pon tam and Trieste, to cat off the retreat of the Arch duke Charles. The Austrian trovs between the Lakes of Constance and Fitessen, have fallen back. SKETCH OF TILE CAMPAIGN IN GERMANY. (Fran the Pubhcistel It was, no doubt, of great interest for a power, such as Austria, to throw upon the Rhine an army of above 80,000 men, which she might in a very short space of time augment, with a large detach ment of her troops from the Tyrol, and expel to render formidable with the aid of two Russian armies, upon which one would be induced to think that the Cabinet of Vienna reckoned more than upon its own native troops. She no doubt thought that one of the principal advantages that would re sult from fwr a lexpeard agmession, would he to tarnish the Austrian army with abundant winter quarters in Suabia and Bavaria, while we should be unable to oppose them there ; but the march of her army was rash. His Majesty, the Emperor, has defeated all the calculations of his enemies, and his march, rapid as the lightning, has procured for his arms successes so multiplied and extraordinary, that they appear to vulgar minds, the effea of some supernatural and incomprehensible power. The Austrian army occupied the entree of the Ilia and of the Danube, in the vicinity of Ullll. It had pushed its reconnoitering parties and picquets even to the Rhine. But, at the very moment when our enemies expefted to see us drawn np opposite to them upon the Banks of the Rhine, our right wing was already smolt the Danube below Ulm, which was the point It appal of their own. We proceeded along that river, and our left, joined by the Bavarian army, fell upon Ingolstadt. The Austrian army thus found itself turned, and the jundion of the Russians with it became impossible. The subsequent marches of the corps of the French army soon dissipated all the doubts which the Ge nerals of the Austrian army might have enterta;ned relative to the dangers of that position. The corps of the army of Marechal Bernadotte, and the Ba varian army,advanced rapidly to the her, which the Austrian corps of Kienntayer recrossed in great haste; they took possession of Munich, supported by the corps of the army of Marechal Davnust, and, on the 13th 0:lober. Marechal Bernadotte had pushed his advanced posts as far as Wauerburg and Haag, on the road to Brannan. Independent of the advantages of such a position, which pre vented the jundlion of the Russian and the Austrian army of the Bier, while the latter were cut off from all communication with Vienna, except ing by the Tyrol, Marechal Bernadotte, with out himself losing a single man, had taken 1500 prisoners, 19 pieces of cannon, 200 horses, and a great quantity of baggage, &c. Whilst this admirable movement was effeding on our right, and replacing our ally, the Mein of Bavaria, in pos session of his unjustly-iavaded dominions, the centre of the Imperial and Royal Army of France, com manded ►y Mareehal Soult,was master of the course of the Lech, and the Bridge of Rain. It successively occupied Augsburg and Landsberg ; the right, un def.the orders of Prince Murat and Marechals Lannes and Ney, beat in, after the glorious battles of Wer tingen and Cunzburg. the Austria% divisiame,which were negligently posted at those points, and drove them back upon Ulm. It then advanced along both the shores of the Danube, in the dire:lion of Ulm; while the corps of the army under Marechal Souk, proceeded to Merniningen, which place they reached on the 13th of October, and obliged part of the enemy to capitulate there. Nine battalions, two of which were grenadiers, one Major-General, three Colonels. many superior Officers, made pri soners; ten pieces of cannon, a great quantity of baggage, &c. were the result of that day in our favour. Meanwhile, Oct the ttth of (Mobil-, 2.5,000 of the enemy had quitted Ulin, to attack General Du pont's division, stationed at Albeck. This division, composed of about (400 men, but of regimeuts of known intrepidity, fought with uncommon obsti nacy and resolutions it took a great number of the enemy prisoners. His Majesty the Emperor, who intended to attack them before Ulm, caused the position of Ober-Elchingen to be carried at day. bireak o( jibe 14th. The confliet which took place ~ -. tber. ii onti of the mot extraordinary militaty Marechal Ney passed the bridge at the heart of Loison's division, gained possession o f h eights which appeared impregnable, routed the Austrians, and took 3000 prisoners, among whom was a Major-General. • Marechal Lannee took possesi;on of some eminences of less height, that corm -kind the plain of Ulm, beyond the village of N. The sharp-shooters took the tete de punt of Cins and filled that place with alarm. Prince Murat, manoeuvring with the divisions of dragoons um , manded by Generals Klein and Beaumont, threw the enemy's cavalry into confusion in every quarter. On the morning of the 14th, General Marniow, corps occupied the bridges of Unter and Obetki.k, towards the conflux of the Iller and the Dswohe, and General Baraguay D'Hillier's division of di * . mounted dragoons took part. in the blockade of the city of Ulm, on the right shore of the Dan u b e. The Bavarian division remained at Augsburg. On the 15th, His Majesty, the Emperor, advanced before Ulm. He ordered the corps of Prince NlS rat, and of Marshals Lannes and Ney, to be draw n up in order of battle, with the intention of car rying the enemy's entrenchments by main forte. After losing a great number of prisoners, t i Austrians, completely inclused by our trnopt, thought fit to shut themselves up in Ulm, leaving v masters of the heights of Michelsburg, which We took with great vivacity. The town, though eon , tAioing nearly 27,000 Austrians, of whom 3000 were wounded, might have been taken by assault. but His Majesty wished to spare the blood of his soldiers, and the Austrian~ capitulated. Yesterday we took possession of (ina of the gates, and we :•are already repaired the bridge of Ulm, mom Danube. The Austrian soldiers vet/ bi . t a f r ee taken prisoners, will be sent to Frart.se, officers are permitted to return to their ow.. z A corps under the command of General; the 1'....ce of Hohenzollern and Werneck, took a dieraion to ' wards Bohemia. Prince Ferdinand chose rather ta join it, than to be shut up in Ulm ; and, at Asks, he formed a juniioo with Hohenzollern's division, with four squadrons of cavalry, who accompan4 him. Prince Murat, who was in pursuit of him, could not be checked at Langenau, by Wernecl's division, from which he made at first 3,000 prison ers, among whom was a General Officer, and took two standards. While Marshal Lannes was pro ceeding to Aalen and Nordlingen, Prince Murat ad vanced to Eleidensheim and Neresheim. General Klein's division of dragoons charged the enemy. Generals Weber and Zinzendort, two standards, and one thousand Austrians, tell into our hands, the battle of Neresheim. At Thatahausen, three battalions laid down their arms, and surrendered eight pieces of cannon. At Nordlingen, General Werneck capitulated for his division ; Generals Ho henzollern, Buillet de la Tour Hohenfeld, Rohan, and Michery, declared themselves prisoners of war. Generals Mack, Fresnel, Klenau, and the Prince of Lichtenstein, made prisoners of war at Ulm, set out the day before yesterday, on their return to Austria, on parole. Thus, Sir, has an army of 80,000 men been dis solved in a few days. At the battles of Wertingen, Gunzburg, Ober, Elcbingen, Memmingen, at Ulm, Albeck, Neresheim, in Ulm, and by the surrender of Hohenzollern's Corps, we have taken from the enemy 60,000 prisoners, or even more, including those taken in Bavaria ; more than 40 standards, a very great quantity of artillery, baggage, carriages, several magazines, &c. Their loss in killed, miss ing. deserters, dead, &c. completes the total num ber to which their army amounted. Oar loss, though it may appear almost incredible. it is cot the less true, amounts to 500 killed. tt',• have. at most. 1000 wounded. This whole cam paign consisted of manzuvres ; the soldier's blood was spared, but not his legs. Continual rains bad rendered marching excessively fatiguing. The example set by His Imperial and Royal Majesty himself, caused the troops to vanquish every obstacle. tie shared all their fatigues. What confidence, what assurance of vietot y is not inspired by such a chief, by a military genius so vast ! The soldiers, on the day of Ulm, amidst the mud, in which they plunged up to the knees, hailed the Emperor by spontaneous acclamations, the efiet'l of their love, their admira. tion, and their gratitude. And when Marschal Lannes conjured His Majesty to remain no longer exposed to the fire of the enemy's cannon, he seemed to speak in the name of the army. and of all France, whose destinies are so in. timately conneeted with that of the hero, who reigns over it. If, like Philip Augustus, at Bou. vines, the Emperor, before Ulm, had offered the crown to him who should hare been judged most worthy to defend it, I doubt not that the cry of all Europe, if it could have been heard, would have proclaimed him himself the most worthy of wearing it ; and it is, in La, from him alone that Europe must exped the end of its miseries, and its futttse 1 ~ : MI an to of
