PRIVA rE CORRESPONDENCB. #.‘ Reichenhach, Ilea.l-4aarters of the Allies, • . July etl; rr I shall certainly esteem it a piece of great good fortnne that I happened to have been here the day before yesterdaythat morning a message from Lord Cathcart informed _us that the Empe ror haul received a Gazette account of Lord liagion's victory, and that itt consequence a 7'e Deum would be sting at the Emperor's quarters, at which he expected the presenceolanthe English here. Off we went in full regimentals, feeling ourselves at least two inches taller than usual.— The ceremony was very impressive, the singing excellent ; it was of considerable length, and performed in Riiesian. The Emperor,-who seem ed to come in for no small share of the adoration, stood alone, a few paces in advance of the rest of the audience ; of coast all the first men in . the Russian army were present. Afterits conclusion, th e Emperor retired to another rothity where those English, who had n;.it had' that hOnour before, were presented to hint. He received us very gra --eiouSly, spoke of the victory, and made particular imptiries as to the corps to which we belonged.— . ThcEmperor is - rather a, well-looking man, but has time Bitsciat, Stoop in •• the shoulders, which - gives au Ha wiiivardness to his . figure. , He is much at tached to military- lilt:. I. saw hint on pa rade on Monday, when his guard was relieving ; Itc clamiarti the soldiers with great attention.— A firer leaving the Eniperor, Ivc dined at Lord heart's, who, ettiertained in honoiti of the QC , . easion. Whilst N....kiting before-dinner, the English TNics..cluter arrived NOth the Gazette. I do not lie lieve a more hippy set coUld, be fotaid ;-the anxi ety which we felt fur the safety of our friends was done away, and the gave ourselves up to the Joy which every Englisbzium.muit feel for so glorious a victory. We drank the health of our new Mar shal in'a bumper, .111 which the Austrian Minister, vivito dined with us, seemed tO join must heartily. Yon ,would not suppose this the head-quarters of au army preparing for the field—every thing scents as peace4ble as possible. The Emperbr's quar tet s are abcut a mile and a half from the town, where he lives a good dual in retirement. Time King ,of Prussia lives also almost alone, about three mileK"off—no gaiety or amusements what - ever, nor, since our arrival, any review. Here every one is in complete ignorance of what is to I should suppose the account Of time vic tory has arrived most opportunely, and that it must have t great effect Upon'Austria. She has is very ~largearmy concentrated on the frontiers of &The , mia, under Prince Schwartzenburgh, amounting, it is said, to 150,000 men, and that site has 100,000 more ready to take the field.. The Allies ~, t , Extracts from Freneh Papers to 'the 22i, .are given in a preceding column. They are chiefly important, as being entirely silent on the subject of the Peninsula, and on the still more moment ous of the Armistice. But,though we have no direct mention of. the latter, there are 1 numerous notices of various matters which tend strongly to corroborate the opinion we have all along entertained, and endeavour e d to impress upon the public, that the negociations at Prague would turn out to :be, nothing more than a for mality, from which all parties would seek nem slot) to justify the grounds on which they per sisted in the war. Among these articles, which. confirm us in this opinion,we may specify the t 111.• certainty_which prevailed., eve!) up to the:latest date, at Dresden. Whoever has marked the soli citude with which, by various rumours, the hopes of Peace, have been cultivated in France, must be sensible that it a single topic. remained on which t 9 build unotber expect a tion of , ; • . P.: • • 'hat event it would have been pompously insistel upon in the French 'Jou'rnals. But instead of this, w`e haVe nnly,the echo of war like preparation. .10 . 11 leis master. From I.4eilisic we a . feiSsnred (Aug. I Qtli) that " the passage of troops the banks of the . Rhine to Lusau and Silesia is inure than :ever ;" which assertion, by:the2bye, citiry cicates • . a doubt in our mind whether it is itself a lie, or whether the lie rests 'cm . anticodent statements; for without desiring toi er-estmate the mighty force BLIONAPARTE has (fram► ed. into the field, we may say, that if all we have heard from Leirii•c, Frankfort, &c. be true, he most have at least 'three millions (If men in Silesia ! ! The taunt at t4e King of PaussiA on account of the glorious levies of his subjects, who are rising as one man to repel the Tyrant, is another indication of war; but perhapi . the most undoubted of all these is the following notice : " FUONTIERS or SAxos:v, Auo. 9.—We are assured that the corps of the IMperial Guard, which are now at Dresden' are to march 011 the 11th tint: for their ulterior destination." From this we would gather, not only that hos tilities were inevitable, but that they were likely to take place immediately after the date of this •para;;rapli. From all these considerations, we continue to adhere to our opinion; that the war in Germany has before day been renewed. • From some private communications by the Ile.: ligoland Mails, it becomes more evident that Denmark has begun to he staggered in her at tachment to ; the vile policy which, perhaps in a •moment of irritation, she consented to em brace. At least, we would fain believe that this is the case, for it is distressing to think that any independent nation should lend itself to the system of that Monster, whose only ob ject is to employ one country against an other, till he, can enslave them We noticed some days ago a returning intercourse between the Allies and Denmark. 'We now learn with augmented :hope that the Danish Government hate consented to a regular post communication with this country by way of Heligoland. It is true that'commereivl convemeucy is the ostensible ground for this mea ,sure ; but trade and politics . ar.' too intimately connected to permit us to put the latter out _of our consideration while we, are talking of the former. The inference is, therefore, decidedly favourable ; and at all eVents, the fact is gratify ing, as it will enable us to expedite and continue, without interruptions, that intercourse with the Continent on - will:eh so much at present depends. : The Faction's organ of to-day, has a dull half column of half accusations against Ministers, for their edudoet of the war in Spain.: Hove the writer can havc the, effrontery to open his lips upon the, su bj ect we are at a loss. to conceive. One would think confusion would overwhelm him wline'ver he thought of nil his false prognostications and his idle prophecies. But the Party are lost to shame.-- Me shall not waste continent upon this stupid mass of inanity, and.only allude'to it, in order to mention ,two expressions rather bolder than the rest, and, standing out in tine. aZto Wieco from' the , fiat groutid. He, says, ‘6 We hare hi therto .fed the war by PRIBLETN," and agai n ad vises that we' should' not go '" on in bALLICING with the enemy !" And so we are to understand, that the victorious WELLINGTON has conquered With a host of driblets, and that at Talavera, Sa lamanca, Vittoria, theyyrenees; Ste. we have only been' dallyir4 with the French ! ! wonder fid conjuror!! We yesterday signified our intention of entering upon the subject of the manifold forgeries of Fo reign News, which have recently bf!en committed and palmed upon the public through the medium of the most respectable Newspapers of the metro polis. It is unnecessary far us to preface this matter with observations on its importance : every man must see, that if the founts of intelligence are to be thus pOisoned for sinister purposes, that .the system will, in the end, go to undermine all confidence in the authenticity of the periodical press, and place us in a worse,situation than even o u r Gallic neighbours in the estimation, not only of our own country, but of every State in Europe. The pblitical advantages which have resulted to . . England from the reliance placed:on the perfect veracity of her character by the Continent, are too signal and obvious to require demonstration. flow much *lust this reliance be shaken by tln gross and infamous falsehoods- which- haVe, for some time past, from day to ti ty brought her truth into question, and rendered her Journals, generally speaking, unworthy of every degree of credit !

" I went over the other day to see the position at Schweidniiz, which the Allies are - ,fortifving, and which will very probably, if a renewal ot:hos-, tilitics takes place, be the scene,of another action. It is about ten English miles from hence.. It con sists of two hills, of inconsiderable height, which will be occupied by the left and .centre. , These heights are fortifying, and will be connected by redoubts.. The left will be 'tolerably strong on. two sides, as the approach is rather steep ; but there is nothing to prevent a march in the plain, without the range of shot, and a consequent at-. tack on the rear. The right, too, is quite open ; here it is. said , the cavalry are to act. Altogether it appeared to our party to be no greit things ; hut Lord Cathcart in his dispatcli exprisSed a different opinion, and lie ought to know best. The 2 russians , too, are repairing the fortification of Schweidnitz, which hail been blown up by the French at the conclusion of the last peace-it may be made strong---10,000.then have been employed since the conchtsion of the Armistice, yet, munch is to be done.--We have Cossacks herein great abun dance ; some froth beyond the Caspian, armed with bows and arrows ; others wrapped imp in their bear-skins, from the North ; and almost every one differing from the tither in appearance.

' They are -amounted on miserably looking small . boases, resembling very much the small wilts horses in Kerry ; yet these creatures, from their activity and the habit of being con stantly at work, , and exposed to all kinds of wea ther, are capable of great fatigue. A Cossack al ways carries his booty and baggage with him on his horse, generally in !mks placed under•the sad dle. They 'are therefore considerably raised above the hack of the horse, and you may judge of his .success by the degree of elevation. Though they have have no qualms of, conscience towards. other people, whether allies or enemies, yet it is said they act with strict honesty towards each other.
