Several corps cf the French army, which went from hence, marched to Tubi:igen and Rentlingen, from whence, 10 - ter having chased the Austrians, they continued their march towards Redlingen, on the Danube, in order to keep along by the left bank of that Riser. • • A part of the grand.airrench Army, which had formed a jimaion 1.. this neighbourlaahl, marched to Esslingen, and is divided into several columns. One takes its route by Blanbruern, another by Goeppingen and Geisslingen, which has re-united at Ulm. This city is now in the possession of the French Troops: several other columns, which also took their print of departure from this city, have ad. vanced, some to Heidenheim.

The French Army in Germany, continues to ad. v Ince withoutespsiitncing any ()Wade. It is sup posed that the troops will pass the Danube between Dillcngen and Ulm, or near Nieuburg. According to all appearances. that passage will be disputed, as the French Army are on the right Bank of the DA nube. There remains to Austria no other fortrm. and to the French no other ramparts to obstruct them, than the Tyrol. It is a very remarkable circumstance at the pre• sent moment, and from which conjedurcs may b. drawn not favourable to the Northern Coalition, that the corps undet the orders of Marshal Berna dotte, is expeded at Offenheim, a tuwn of Franco nia, is the Margraviate of Anspach.

As soon as the F.mperer of Germany has attended the Hungarian Diet at Presburg, he will return to the army, whither he will he accompanied by Count Cobentzel, and several of the other great Officers of State, as also by the Russian Count Rasumowsky, and Lord Paget, the English Amhassadrm ; in order that no delay may be occasioned is the operations of the field.

Esq. sn-tnotrow. ~ THE BRITISH PRESS. lON U( r , , TUESDAY, ()emit& tto.. We have recsived Paris Pap e rs to the 14th, and o;:teh Papers to the 17th instant. An article, dated Stutgard ttle 7th. states, that the several corps of the French Army have proceeded to Tu bingen and Rottlingen ; from whruce, atter having driven away the Austrians, they conthaued their mute to Redringen. With the exception of this passage, there is not a single paragraph in these Papers that insinuates a skirmish, much less a haul-, between the French and Austrians. It i, probable, that evn in this case not one blow was struck, as the Austrians are represented falling back as fast as the enemy approach, without attempting even a shew of resistance.— _ The various movements of the French army con tinue to confirm the opinion, that Bow aura axe is straining every nerve to bring the Austrians to battle, before the arrival of the Russians. The lat ter, we fear, are not so far advanced, as we were taught to believe. It is now said, that they were not expefted at Brunn, in Moravia, until the sth or 6th. %NAP A ITIL is stated to have reached l.)•rnanwerth upon the 7th, and his army is represented in full march along the Danube. Donauwerth is only a few miles from Ingolstadt, and the French boast that they have passed that fortress, as also Dim, and other strong places, to which so much import ance was attached in the late war, without firing a sir gle :hot. We have ream to believe, that the reported plan of a confederacy between Prussia and some of the P. inces who have possessions in- the North of Ger many, to prevent the passage of the Russians, is only the revival of an old rumour. We End it in the Paris ?apers ; but of so old a date as the 25th of September. We must. however, observe, that there is not any thing in these Journals, that tends, in the slightest degree, to throw it into discredit. Oa the contrary, Prussia is represent ed as departing so far from * stria and impor- tiel neatzality,that a detachment of Austrian recruits were obliged, by the Prussian garrison at Nurem berg, to lay down their arms, before they were per mitted to pass through that city. This event took glace upon the tt7th of September, only three or four days before the French troops numbed through Anspach, witlsoua any resistance on the part of the Prussians, except a verbal remonstrance. Upon this point, we shall oolyobserve, it continues to be asserted pos:tivcly, iu tbc Nlinisterial circles. that Prus.ia has atually promised not to oppose the passage of the Russians through the North of Germany, nor the re occupation of klawver. A Paper of the 11th states, that the Ausaies A.tabaseader. Comes Co. - ~~~ 2 - ,2zry, erns in Pmis nn the !Otis, and that be bad male no piepAtAtioar. indicative of an approaching departure. It is extremely probable that B 'NA- P ART[: means to detain him, and that a knowledge of this purpose has determin-:d Cie I•lns,:eror -of lesreta to refuse his pass:sorts its the Fuesc ir Misisria at Vienna, u•atil assur.nl that Coma Co- BESTZKL was safe beyond the reach of the Usurper.

That part of the German Le gion, which embarked at Ramsgate, on board the transports, is now at anchor in the Downs, where our force is daily accumulating.

Our naval yard has been stripped of all the flat bottomed boats, the depot at Dover the same, and several men of war have arrived from the river, each having a certain number on board. There are besides, about twenty large boats come into the Downs, nearly resembling a s.:ip's launch, each mounting one carronade of la-ge calibre, aaJ ca pable of carrying about 50 soldiers.
