Four hattaliOns of this divi' sion only were engaged. The infantry displayed itac nsual intrepidity, and the• enemy was repulsed. . the "ith, the Viceroy' being informed that the enemy had passed the; lbe at Dessau, sent the 4th; antipart of the l lth carps, to suppott tire 2d corps, commanded by the Duke of Balmy. The Viceroy himself took post at Staasfurt, where, on the 9th, his head-quarters were, 'and be has colleeted:his army upon the Saale,—the left to the Elbe, rife right leaning on the moun , tains at Hartz, and his reserve at Magdeburg. The Prince of Eekinuhl, who on the Bth had has head-quarters . at Luneburg, bud put himself in minion to again approach Magdeburg.

A part of the Emperor's Staff had al . ready arrived there, which gave reason for ex pecting the speedy arrival of his Majesty. Putts, APRIL 16.—His .Majesty the Emperor passed through Metz this morning, 27 lours after his departure from Pacts. • PARIS, APRIL 13.---Prince Schwartzenberg had • the honour of being presented' to his Majesty the Empe:•or, and delivering him a letter from his • Sovereign. BaLtzu, APRIL:..;.--Our town is filled with troops. During the last three days, five brilliant battalions have arrived from different directions. Aritll. 15.—His Majesty the Emperor set off from St. Cloud at one o'clock in the morn ! . Ing; lie is going to take the command of the ertiLies. To the itninenee adminietrative labours .whieb bate uninterruptedly occupied his Majesty's thoughts, since the epoch of his arrival until that of his departure, - are going to succeed warlike •tvorks, and those grand military combinations which COUIIII3IId victory, atul decide. the fate of 'Empires. That indefatigable activity which only reposes by changing objects ; that force of mind ul‘vitys the same under every - circumstance, in council equally as in field of battle ; that noble audacity which eo reverse can shake, and which commands events, leaves uo doubt as to the issue of this new campaign. Emboldened by the unforeseen calamity which strata the French army at the commencement of `lust winter ; encouraged by the defection of the ?Tessier' Guveroment, keg aceustornea to jest ,with the tuost solemn treaties—to change with fortuue—our enemies have spread through a part ,of Germany, less with the hope of making solid i ind glorious conquests there, than to sow, in the midst of, those people, the seeds of discord and anarchy. . • C.f all the strong places occupied by the French, none, except' ?Ulan, have fallen before them. Tiles upon the Vistula, es upon the Etbe and the (,)/ters they have no point of support; and .the further they advance, with the more difficulty and : danger will their retreat be accompanied. All-the intelligence we receive from Germany, •lepresents the.situation of the French armire in• ,This a manner as to inspire its with confillenec. ,This hews cannot surprise us—we, who two months ago sent forth from the. walls of Paris .setlicienetroopS to form a formidable army, whe ther considered in respect to discipline or skilful .ness in manoeuvres. We know that the-divisions arrived from Italy are fell of order, and composed i ef sc.ldiers . .tried in several campaigns. • Artillery, wttlutmitioo, provision,. of every sort, abound in ihst. French 'senile* I and when they shall find therneelves eleetrified by the presence of their So ya:reign, .there is nothing . ivhich they cannot undertake, nothing which they cannot execute. In the interior, abundance, tranquility, an en tire sainission from the citizens to the laws, which can alone guarantee their persons and pro. pertics ; with armies filled with honour amid cou 'eat;e, commanded by the first Captain of the age, •fed by neiv and amineious battalions, daily organ ised under our eyes ; how knurly reasons for hope,. bow many for security ! ' It' our enemies have not been able to' accomplish their projects, when a t ieeouring climate rendered courage and skill un- . necessry, can they how expect fresh success, when the'seasonis about to . allow our brave men to display their forces, and resume their accirstom ed periorify.? We do not. seek by vain conjec tlirefi anticipate events; but every timing leads us tei.pl'e,i4urle that their hopes will he deceived , their .pride confounded. • htiSll.S.

ByON4PAHTE, who soiecently ran away from one army, has set out,t6 take tie command of an other. His reputation and'his power at stake, he finds it absolutely neeeslary to take the field hefin e his preparations . eariby possi:Llllity be completed, in order to stattr. the tideoffublic opinion in Ger many, under the influenCe of whit)* the whole Germanic people would soon be in • arms. lie took his'departure from Paris on Thursday last at 011i:o'clock in the morning, and the next day .passed through Metz, on his wly to Mayence. , To collect his forces, and attempt to strike an immediate blow, which may have the et et of again raising his military reputation, and repress ing the patriotic spirit of the German people, will probably be his first phjects. lie must either play a desperate game, and run all hazards,in aiming at something decisive, or his militaryeeputation and his power' sink to rise no more. The mo ment is an anxious one, but every fair ground of hope is on the side of the allias He brings into the field raw troops, not yet even half formed, soldiers, without; any confidence in, themselves, whilst his few remaining veterans have lost all confidence in' him. The troops of the allies,. on , the contrary, come into the field veteran and well disciplined, with all the confidence of victory, each man feeling the justice of the cause in which he is fighting, and the Prussian and:German soldiers feeling, as they must; that to them .defeat will be . worse than death, plunging them in its effects into hopeless slavery. . The tyrant leads on his slaves against legions united in the common bond of resistance to oppres sion. .Let us hope the cause of justice may at length triumph, and the Standard of virtue wave triumphant. For once he is unable to clime his own time or his own ground ; be is traced into the field, to avoid a greater.shock to his power, before his preparations are complete, and he is compelled to take up the ground -left him by his adversary. He. thus fights under every dis •advantage. Nothing can retrieve his fortunes but some decisive blow struck without delay. That failing him, he may return to Parr, but his power and. induenac in 'Europe exist no longer. That sentence which' be has fulminated against MO.. MitChe may then be pionoupced upon himself, and all Europe will re-echo the micosue sound, that BUONAPARTehas ceased to reign. , The Paris Papers contain two statements of the situatlon'of the armies in the North, on the fi . tb. and the 10th of April. The defeat and death 'of Aloaatin, at Lunebourg, 'are acknowledged, but hic force is diminished to 1000 omen,. 800 of whom urc stated to he Saxons. DAvousT is asserted to leVe afterwards occupied Lunebourg, but to have subsequently made a move (a retreat) towards debourg. The action with Geetutee is also men. tioned, but in tenua that leave little doubt of his having been defeated. Many boasts arc made of the state of the French • armies, in the Journal de Pettis, but most them obvioualy untrue. The greatest sti estis laid upon the French garrisons in the rear of the Russians still holding out. This, in the event of any great disaster happening to the Itussien arms .might be productive of unpleasant consequences ; but we cannot see the probability of .those events happenieg, which could alone, under this _Situation of . liffairs, be of any advantage to the 'French. The Ressian , Oener?ds have proved themselves fully equal to the task. of ebping with the leader of the French armies and his Mllrshals, • ' whom they have aleady defeated, and the utmost r'eliatice may be placed, upon their skillau4eience, :lined by the bravery.and discie!ine of their troops, by the . desperation of the Prussians ) , (for let it be recollected, that il-BUQNAPAATH has a desperate game to play, the Prussians must he equally des petate), by the exasperated ; population of the North of Germany, and by 0 powerful ‘vediitt force, headed by an able General, Such:are the odds with which tinktyrant of Trance has.now to contend, unaided bit . his former coadjtitors, &stud and deception, for neither will at this mordent Aver his purpoie. . We may thus confidently hope,' that . bislyranny is at length waning to its eNtinetion,. d that the day star of deliverance will sheds permanent lustre over Europe. The report we mentioned yesterday, from the American raper 4 of . the capture of the Castor, there is uo &Alb; is .untrue, the •CastOr being sta. dotted in the Mediterranean. • Last night's Gazette contains . • the dispatches from' Sir JOIIN ALLTIIRAY, at Alicont, the substance 0 1 ...hich Nye give on Monday ; the pill c diipatch from the First Lieutenant of the Java, relative to the capture of that frigate. Nine waggons, loaded with gold dust, bats, ajna silver bullion, worth upwards of ball a ihil lion,. Strived this forenoon at the Hank from Ports mouth. This va!uable cargo was brought by the_ President frigate from the Cape of Good Hope, to which it had been conveyed at different times from the East India Company's possessions in India. The Morning Chronicle has this day thought proper to notice what we said of its splenetic ef fusions yesterday ; but in so brief a manner that we have little to say in answer. It Wisely avoids all the topics upon which it had so rashly com mitted itself, , and confines )tself, so far as the Sins is cmiderned, merely to the subject of Guada loupe, which Island it yesterday said we laid offer ed to Sweden, though, to use its own words, " it is not yet our own," We maintained that it was our own by the right of conquest, and the Chronicle has not presumed to contradict us, but ,shrinks from the assertion. Here then we shall let this matter rest. lint we beg leave to draw the attention of the public, in general, to what appeared in that Paper on Monday. Ad verting to the Society which has been recently formed for the purpose of promoting Christ;anity . among the Jews, the Chronicle had the following passage, referring to the ceremony of laying the foundation, for the erection of an Episcopal Chapel for this object " This, we venture to think; is beginning at the wrong end. Before the Jews are. offered the re ligion of the land, they should be allowed the fair privileges of the ConstitutiOn ; and all the unjust and disgraceful political restrictions should be re moved. They might then give the Christians =edit for good intentions." The pithlie need pot' be reminded of the stre nnotts and repeated cthni which the. Morning Chronicle has made to remove all restrictions upon the Papists, and by the above extract, we find that Jt thinks the Jews also ought to be admitted to every privilege pOssessed by the Members of the Established Church. , What then has become of the boasted attachment of the Morning Chronicle to the good old Constitution of this country, or what would become of that Constitution if Papists, Jews, and the followers of everyother religion were to be admitted without restraint, and without giving any pledge, to all its privileges ? Mahontetans,tmi qven.slatt-t.teArot*ca to. JakepTaatet Its e4tr- ' crable rites, would, according to the opinions the Morning Chronicle, have a full claim to a seat in Parliament, or to any privilege at present wisely ,confined to the Members of our Establishment in Church and State. This doctrine of the Morning Chronicle may be a goad specimen of modern libe rality, but we hope and trust that our Rider's will prove themselves such bigots to the principles of our ancestors as to guard' the Constitution which their wisdom and vulotir bequeathed to us, from Papists and Jews, as well as flout every other de scription of people who . will not enter into those securities .which its preservation essentially and absolutely , demands.
