The insurgents in the Tyrol having laid down their arms, tranquillity is restored in that country, and the foreign troops, which formed a cordon on the no►thern frmitiers, are beginning to take their departure. The Wirtemberg regiment of Frongue mont passed by Linden on the 16th; the other Wir tensberg troops have likewise left the Vorslherg, and have entered Stockach, Waldeer, Bilkers(' &e.

TUESDAY, Deccusee 1). We have received Dutch Papers to the 13th, con... twining the Paris news to the 10th instant. We de rive also, from the same source, intelligence from Vieuna, to the 27i6 last, from Madrid to the 20th, .aild from Bayomie to the 30th last, inclusive.—The articles from the two latter places present as with the French official accounts of the battle of Ova , as, on the 19th last. The report made of the result of this battle by the Spanish General, ARASAGA, iuserted in this paper, yesterday, admitted that his 'army was defeated and dispersed, and that he was obliged to retreat to La Carolina, me the Sierra Morena. Hopes, however, were entertained, that his fumy, although dispersed, might be able to re-unite. But, according to the French accounts, the defeat of the Spaniard* was limit decisive; while they all agree in this result, they differ in th; details. In one it is stated that the Spaniards had 4000 kilted, mid 20,000 'thole prisoners, including 400 officers, with 40,000 stand of items, baggage, ammunition, arc. The whole army, that of La Mancha, previous to the battle, is estimated at 55,000 men.—The Duke of Treviso, Marshal MORTIER, commanded the French army in this action. He marched from Aranjue: on the lath, to give the Spaniards battle. The Spanish Papers stated, that the floods prevented ARASAOR from passing the Tagus, with his whole force, for Ma drid. I,Ve now understand the nature of those floods, which did not prevent MoartEit from cross ing that river, and marching to Ocana. While the principal army of Spain is thus swept away, we find, that, in the beginning of last Month, French troop. were pouring into Spain by Bayonne. The last of the 3.1 division of the army of reserve was to pass through that town on the 6th, for Vit toria, its head-quarters, under General Lwow,, who lately commanded in Portugal; who is ap pointed Governor-General of the Provinces al Gui puscos, Biscay and Alava.—Marshal Nay, .Duke of Elchingen, who quitted his command• is the north-west of the Peninsula, for Madrid, from whence he went to Paris, to prepare the plan of the new campaign, and receive Botta- Pittlx . * instructiolis, had alit) arrived at Bay onne, and was to set out on the Ist instant, for Spain, to carry the plait into execution. The first effect of this accession of French forces in that quarter, was the re-occupation of Sr. Andero. This is said to have beau effected by General BON. ate, after having defeated the Spaniards, in the vicinity, with a lossou their part of xOOO men. Box remained at Paris on the 9th, sur rounded with his vassal Kings, eonsistiog of his own upstart relatives, and the degraded Princes of Germany. Tice cityfeo, in honour of the anniver sary of his coronation, was celebrated with great splendour. We find also iu the Paris news, that the Court of Inquiry upon General Savant, now a prisoner in England, who commanded the garrison of Flushing, when attacked aud taken 14-the British forces, has found him guilty of treason, cowardice, eas4ezzlement, and extr.rtiou. It appears that. he had instructions, if hard pressed, to cut the dyktbs . rather than surrender. He was therefore a traitor and coward, be , aisna he had humanity enough to surrender, rather than destroy the country andthe people. The Emperor of Acrrata entered Vienna on the 2701, and was received with enthusiasm. The city was illuminated at night on the occasion. The Empress was shortly expected to join him thee. The number of the sick and wounded French in that vicinity that could not he reditived was 10,700. All toe a, counts from the Tyrol mid Voralberg represent those countries as completely reduced to subjection, how truly, we do not pretend to say.
