• . .N"4"0 principal Officers among the Allies are tstiii • Ined byname as killed or wOunded. It is not preteptled that either the centre or ;ht of the Allied Army were at all engaged. On the three succeeding days (the 28th, 29th, id nOth), there are no fruits of a routed foe. The positions of none of the corps after the battle are givcn.—We hear of no advance towards Prague, except that on the 29th- VANDAMME was upon the heights of Bohemia, whence he had been driven only a few days before. BUONAPARTE himself was expected to return to Dresden. Why ? Because the CROWN PRINCE is victorious in the North; and BENNIGSEN, join ing by Lissa and Crossen (thus giving an over whelming influence to the Allies over the weakened enemy in Silesia), threatened the busy Ruffian With as much danger from the East as he had just repelled from the South. Lissa is a few miles on this side of Breslau. But we must now turn to the battles of Dres den. At noon on the 26th, the Allies assaulted Dresden on the left bank of the Elfleand pressed it so hard, that within an hour after the bombarch !pent comnienced, parts of the works were turned, and the very reserves of the defenders engaged. c c c r , -!ne moment appeared pressing," and BeosTA- PiniTS is represented as making a great movement to SAVE the place. The troops employed under MURAT, Nil. T 4.AI.ORTIER, and LATOUR MAUBURG, beside s the Yoang guard, are said to have carried all before them, and " the fire immediately got to a distance," no very wonderful matter, seeing that it WAS between 5 and 6 o'clock in the evening when this attack was ordered ! The loss of the Allie s in this failure upon Dresden is reckoned at 2000 Prisoners. Olt the 27th, the six divisions of Austrians, which composed the left wing of the Allies, is as- IPled to have been separated from the main force, Ineeessfully attacked by MURAT, and half of them cut off and made prisoners, while the centre and Ight Were diverted by a cannonade and ether kilitary manoeuvres. At two, the Allies " de ded" on their retreat (not forced td it, Cst) le rve), and 25 or 30,000 prisonets, 40 standards, and 60 °moon. are claimed as the result of this day, while the- Enemy, including the slaughter of the Preceding night, acknowledges a loss of only 4000 men, Such are the French accounts of these great tattles —s o false and exaggerated on the face of them, as to be unworthy of exciting apprehension. • any serious The private letters at Pari s ar e like most of th e ltivate letters which come to London, of very 441 e vuJnc.

I3EAUUARNOIS is at Tar Vis, on the intermediate frontier between the kingdom of Italy and rinthia. The Austrian Army of Istria, and all ,the troops in the South of that Empire, are opposed to him. We have reason to believe that the commo tions in the Roman Peninsula will serve to retard motions.Tbe brave exploit of Capt. Harm in the Adriatic is excellent up on this point, and we trust a very active coasting diversion will be carried on in that quarter. We rejoice to learn, from France, that English flags of truce, and Russian Couriers, are frequently seen to arrive at Copenhagen. From the variety of more imposing matter Which' is continually reaching lis from Spain and Ger many, the lesi extensive licit scarcely less interest ing accounts received from AMerica escape With: out the attention they would under other circum stances obtain. We have nevertheless, within' the last three days, submitted to our Readers rious extracts frtini American and Barbadoes Papers, worthy of further notice than to be merely passed -by sub siteittio. The details relative to the attack on the Black Rock, and picket . - guards at Fort George, prove that the Bri dals have become the assailants on the *hole Niagara frontier, and that the enemy, instead of being able to invade and overrun Canada, have now enough to do to defend theniselves and repel invasion. The Black Rock is opposite Fort Erie, and On the Amedcan margin of the Falls of Niagara, as it unites with Lake Erie. Fort George is at the other extremity, where the Niagara is joined to Lake Ontario. It was here that the main force of the United States threatened our Colonies.— The enemy's Indians have declared that they Will not act on the offensive against Canada. Neither we now imagine will the Americans ! ! The dispatches brought by the last Messenger from Stockholm, are said to Contain information of certain bills having been drawn on this Go vernment, without the previous consent of our Minister, Mr. THORNTON. Whether there was any thing fraudulent in the transaction. we know not : but if sit, the Government having been ap prised of the circumstance in time, will be on its guard against the possibility Of imposition. It is said the bills have not yet reached this country for payment. Before the Vixen sailed, the Earl of ABERDEEN had arrived at .Stralsund, on his way to Austria, and brought the news of the defeat of SouLT, !o the battle of the Pyrenees. The intelligence of these successes gave great confidence, and the presence of the British garrison at Stralsund had produced an excellent effect on the minds of the German people. Speculations to a great extent were entered ittto yesterday in the Stock Market, and a.very respec table firm, Agents - for many opulent persons in the East India connection and others, purchased, at the opening of the Market, 300,0001. in (mi nium, at 61 and 61 premium. Afterwards, omit nitim fell to 51, but was again raised, without any sufficient cause, to 6i, at which price the Market closed. Letters from St. Petersburgh state, that Messrs. GALLATIN and BAYARD had received their dis mission front the Imperial Court, the mediation of the Enoinnou to restore tranquility betireen the United States and Great Britain not having been accepted by the latter. An official notice having been delivered to this effect, the American Plenipotentiaries were preparing to take their de parture. " 116 Royal Highness the Duke of CUMISERLAND arrived at Imndack on the Hth of August. On the evening of the next day he went to a mill, which was given there, accompanied by our Milliner, Sir CtiAni.Es STEWART. On the rAowing morning, his Royal Highness left Lundack, and proceeded on his way towards Prague.

The Island of Jamaica is represented to be in a distresied state at present. The high price and difficu!ty 'of procuring negroes, the scarcity of provisions from the s'at. with America, the losses recen tly sustained from storm.;,' and the melan choly prospect of short crops for the ensuing year, added to an rinusitally large export of specie, must compel the House of Assembly to adopt some le gislative measures of importance.

DEAL, SEPT. 10.—Admiral Comman .der-in-Chief the Flushing Squadron, arrived very unexpectedly in the Downs this morning, in the Impregnable, of 98 guns, having the following .ships under his command, viz.: the Chatham, the Cumberland, the Colossus, and York, English line of-battle skips ; Troclierarzof, Netron, Sciatastof, and Chesnigri, Russian ships of the line, and Scoa bork Russian frigate, which remain in the Downs with the N o rge,Dictator,Bedfrtd, and L'4chille,of 74 guns, Andromeda frigate, Alert, Thunder, Countess of Elgin; Nyniph, Rinaldo, Olympia, Ac five, and Defender, sloops, brigs, cutters, and luggers. That the arrival of this ,squadron was quite finetpected cannot be more clearly demon strated, than thitt forty live bullocks were yes terday sent from the Contractor's Office here, on board the Norge, to be conveyed to this very fleet off Flushing, and she was to have sailed this morning fur that purpose, but the of Admiral YOUNG'S squadron in the Downs, having been announced by signal, the Norge remains at anchor Conjecture, always busy in the absence of real facts, has destined this squa dron, with six or seven more ships of the line, and the necessary number of bomb-vessels,' gun-boats, rocket ships, &c. to make another attack an Co penhagen. What ground there may be for this supposition, those deep in the secret can - best tell. No thunder of cannon from the French coast has yet announced a victory gained by NAPOLEON, nor &is there been any arrival of intelligence since my last. HARWICIT, Smr. 10.—By the arrival of the _ . Lark packet, BARNES, Master, from Heligoland, this 'morning. Our gun-boats in the Elbe are said lately to have engaged a Danish fort in that river, and to have suffered considerably.

B.—Arrived, and put under quarantine, the ..41his, M'ILvAN, from Malta, for Greenock. The Master states, that about one hundred persons are taken ill of the plague every day, of which about fifty usually die. This vessel has brought six passengers, who, with the crew, are all well. Yesterday dispatches were received at the Ad miralty from the Mediterranean. They contain the details of a most gallant enterprize performed by the boats of the Bacchaige frigate, Captain Hosre, in the Adriatic, under the command of sLi en t enan t "loon, of that ship. It appears that Captain Howe received information of a convoy having assembled in one of the ports of the Adria tic, to the amount of between 60 and 70 vessels, which be conceived it !possible to destroy. „He cordingly embarked 150 seamen -and marines in the boats, who were afterwards landed, and had to contend with upwards of 400 of the enemy's troops, whom they completely routed. They next proceeded to attack the convoy ; and it is said that upwards of 40 of the enemy's vessels were barn:, and the remainder brought out. The loss sustained by the enemy is stated to have been, se vere, while that on our side, considering the diffi culty and danger of the enterprite, is not of much magnitude. Sonic officers taken prisoners in. the Atacedoniatt frigate are lately arrived in England ; who, we hear, state, that the crew of the United States, which captured the Macedonian, was the finest body of seamen ever seen ; but it had been proved by muster, that. not more than one hundred men were native Americans, all the others being .Bri tish, Irish, and foreigners. His Majesty's sloop Castilian, Captain BARI - 1t ea, sailed from Cork on the 2d instant, having under her charge the Warren, Couu ; Sir 'Valiant Beasley, WILKINs, wit h r the, 70th regiment, for Camila ; Mary, transport victualler, for Halifax ; and &raid BRADLEY, for ditto. The Cydnes, ot 38 guns, Captain LANGFORD, sailed on Thursday from Portsmonth, with a con- voy of transports, and two troops of the ith Hus sars on board,. for St, Ander°. A convoy from Cork, for tl►e same destination, was expected to sail on Tuesday last. The British troops which hail Lindell at Stral sund, were not in the battle of the 23d ; the 54th Regiment, under Major KaLLT, had, however, advanced to join the eROWN PRINCE.

My spirits 4i-ere wearied and sad, Beaven knows, When the whim of our destinies flung us together, And the arrow that wing'd me its fatal repose Would have carried it, plumed with . aParadise feather. But, Mary, one glance from.that heart speaking eye, As it timidly beam 'd through it's heaven of blue, So plism'd the tear, and so softenee the sigh, That e'eu Sorrow grew lovely by looking on you. Yes, yes, there are souls so deliciously spun, . No forms can sway them, no climates can sever, The hour of 'their meeting, they melt into one, And feel as if free and familiar for ever. Thus, tho' strange were the charms of thy image to me, And far were the scenes of our youth from each oiler, Some spirit celestial had centered in thee, Aud I felt that my heart was the home of its brother. Oh ! that spirit was pure as the gem on the thorn, Which the angels of Heaven let fall in their Hight, And brilliant, as when the refulgence of morn Has robed that sweet gem in the radiance of light t The vision has vanished—but long, very long. Will my heart in delight, o'er its memory stray. And often its magic will charm my song, With the lovely enchantments it carried away. EPIGRAMMATIC CONSOLATION , A Mistress I've lost—it is true; But one comfort attends the diiaster, That had she my Aliatras remained I could not have call'd myself Ma6rer. WINDSOR, SEPT. 10.—Yesterday her Royal' Highness the Duchess of YORIC, left Windsor fur Oatlands. Lord and Lady HENLEY, and the Hon. Miss EDEN, left Windsor for their house' near Watford.

This actress formerly belonged to the Covent Garden Com pany, and was the first representative of Miss B u ll, in the Opera of Fontaintleau. She performed the pari'of Alice with sufficient ability, and seems very well calculated to be useful in Old Women, and other characters of IoW comedy. Her receptions was favourable.—Miss BRISTOW has hardly force enough for the part of Au elina.—Yomto merits a better fate than to be employed in characters of such boisterous turgidity as QinibAd.
