At a late hour, last night,we received, BY Ex Pat.', P.ris Papers to the 11th, and Datch Papers to the 14th inst. The Mundears contain the Sd and 4th Bulletin , of the Army of Italy. The Archduke CH AILLS appears to be retreating with a view to join the left of the Austrian army, which was ex tending itself towards the Carinthian frontier. The disastrous events in Germany, and the strength of Istassxstes army, which is reinforced by 22,000 men wider General Sr. CYR, have probably forced h.rn to take !hat course. 0 r Ctie 30th, the French attacked the whole le gth of the Austrian line, and carried the village of Calcherm The battle then became jenerat—M AISIN A claims the viCoty.

After the passage of the Lin p r the French, the Austrian and Ituss'an army continued to Lai back with its right towards Lintz, an.l its left taking the road to Carinthia. The French army of course advanced without opposition. It was evidently the ohjat of Bomar AR r z to turn the enemy's right wing. In prosecution of that plan, Prince MIA AT pursued it in the direCtion of Wels. and overtook tc rear-guard at Ried, where he made SOO prisoners. After which. he advanced, and took a rsition at Haag. Gen. Day nun., following in the same course, had taken a position between that place and Ried. The whole of the left wing, and part of the centre, appear to have been carried in the same dire/hon. BERNADOTTE'S division is at Saltzi)urg. and his tight wing, under Kea L 104 ANIN g is spread ing itself mund by the village of Collin, to endea vour to imercept or harrass the Aurrians, who are endeavouring to fall back upon the Carinthian fron tier. A great deal of snow had fallen, and the reads were vary bad. We will not be surprised if famine comes in aid of these disadvantages, to stop the career of the French. and give them to the sword of the Allies. The MJAlielar has not yet ventured to notice the battle of Trefalgar. The Publiciste says, that the greater part of the Combined Flee: returned into port, and that of the remainder, it was though some passed into the Mediterranean, and others passed into Spanish ports I!

We under stand that they communicate the important intelli gence, that Prussia has declared war against France. Th. Prussian Officer is also said to be the hearer of a copy of a Defensive and Offensive al li,nce between Great Britain, Russia, Prussia, Austria, and Sweden. This intelligence excited a liv-ly and agre.mble sensation in the City, and caused an advance in the Funds. Bank Stock rose neatly two per cent. ; 3 per Ceut. Consols were done at tio; ; and Osmium at 3 per Cent. premium. We learn, through this medium, that the Prix'. siert army, under the orders of the Eleffor of Hasse, was rapidly firming in the county of Mark. The principal columns were assembling at Unna, and at Arensberg.

The Gasette of Saturday night contains dispatches from Admiral Lord Cott ionopoo, dated the lOt!, inst. They were brought to England by the Tref. singhete packet, I,r the safety of which there was so much anxiety. It appears, that the storm which prevailed upon the Spanish coast s on the 24th and 25th last. was most tremendous end alarming, ex posing the English Reet, to adopt Lord COLLI,'.. wooo's language, " to a simation the most critical. and an employment the must arduous that ever a fleet was engaged in." The prizes were all driven on the Spanish short', bttseeen Cadiz ind Fan Ltil ear ; and there being no prospeCt of getting them off. the nest labour was, its the midst of this tre mendous hurricane, to destroy them with all speed, before the arrival of troops and artillery on the coast to impede the undertatiog. Arduous as this la bour was, it is satisfaiftory to know, that it has been so far completed, as that not a single ship will ever reach the hands of the enemy again ; vet, notn ith standing the account in The Gas tte, we well know that some hopes ate still entertained, that a few rf the ships have actually been preserved ; hut wh-ther these hopes depend upon the indefinite expri.ssiona Lord Cot tancwooo, that " he had tin primped" of bringing a ship into poi t," or on other and more direl intelligence, we cannot say. The Spanish Admiral. on returning to Cadiz, was instantly ordered out again by his Cuvernment ; he complied with tar order, but only to s eco iuu fresh moitification and defeat: his own ship, the Prince of elduries, was dismasted, and returned into port; and the Ropey of too guns, which was also chimes:ed, fell into the hands of the English. The Santa Anna, one of the Spanish three-d.tekers which had struck, was towed into Cadiz by a frigate. When the Combined Fleet sailed from Cadiz, it cossi.ted of eighteen French and fifteen Spaniels ship. of the ii.se. Of the former, eLven were taken in the adieu of the 21st, and four by Sir R. Si aA. C ; so that out of eighteen ships of the line, the flower of the Fro:lett Navy, fifteen have been talc-it or destroyed. The three which escaped, viz. the Pormi4chte, the Neptune, and the /bees; are supposil to be in Cadiz. The list of killed and wounded is given in Lord COLLIW/W4loo'll dispatch, as each its detail as it could be collefted ; no returns, however, have been made from the Victory, Etritnania,Temera,re, Prince, Neptune, 4:1771C81110.111 Sparhale, Afrirr., Beile;th, Cr twat, Achile, Polyphemus, or Seviftsure. The re maining 15 ships lost, in killed. 143 ; wounded, 476 ; total, 619 ; being, upon the average. more than 2/ to each ship ; from which calculation, if the loss of the ships from which no returns have been made, should, in any measure, keep pace with that before us, the whole loss in the &Rion, in killed and wounded, may Ise estimated at about one thousand. rnnnt sians y, to cut Irn, ed a men :e the 12.

This was an isidiament for a riot and assault, tried before Mr. Justice t.c BL•111C, the last assizes for Bristol. It appeared. that a press-gang, commanded by Lieutement Ashley, of the Royal Nivy, and a Mid shipmao, of the name of Wakefield, had impressed a seafaring man, who had !seen working at the canal and impr.wements of the harbour of Bristol, when an immense mob of his brother labourers rose, and swore they would rescue him ; they threatened to break down the gaol, and aftually seized the Mid shipman, AS an hostage, whom they confined for some time. and even threatened his life, whetting their knives on the pavement, swearing they would cut him to pieces. This transadion created a mist alarming mob of several hundreds, and threatened the peace of the city of Bristol. During the whole of the riot, the Defendant was the foremost of ill,: rioters. The Defendant presented a sort of memorial, drawn up in rather a clerical style, and denying all the principal fat% of the case, or even his knowledge of them. But stating his past imprisonment of thirteen months. Mr. J sa r t., for the prosecution, shortly observed, that h;td this riot continued many minutes longer, it would have been of the most serious and alarm ing consequences, little short of a similar riot some 20 years ago, in the city of London. Mr. Justice Griose, in pronouncing the judgment of tire Court, observed with much weight upon the enormity of the offence. Taking the Defendant's past confinement into consideration, the Court ordered that he should be further imprisoned in His Majesty's Gaol of Newgate for the space of Nine Munths. lIIRMITAO9 9.
