LONDON, , Tpist4.47, NOVED.kaBR 6, 1805. °TYR ,fitter froM Dover i:tstes, tha t a great num ber 9f Vey li are collef,ting there for the purpose, as it is,,supposed, of ma't'ing an Attsck upon some of the Znerny's nirts. Upon'this subje& it would be improper for us to make any cbservatimm ; We 'shall therefore only say, that as Sir St.PNL\ SMITH is to have the 'ci.)rnmand,. every, thing. i 3 to be expe&ed whieb can be achieved by skill jnd gallantry.. Wit have tins day made some further Extraets from the Trench and Dutch.l-'apers which arrived in Town on Sunday night : , We. shall 'not occupy the time of our'Readers with'eornmenting at any length upon the various inconsistencies , and contradiaions , appear in the French official acoottnts of thei r late. * extraordinar and , Anparalleled successes ; these inconsistencies and - contradidions are too obvious and too glaring to escape the observation of the most inat- , tentlye Jleaders.:—That has succeeded; by Some nie3ll3 or.othc...i" in nearly annihilating 'the Grand Austrian Army under the command of Gene, ral IViakft, is a fad about; which it would be idle to entertain aiifdeubts,: .We should he . yell unwilling' to throw out . any observgiouswhich might have the et eez. of conveying a. charge , either upon the, skill or upon.the integrity of ~the Austrian Comniander, *open Alia &guile, evidence which we have before us. It must be recolleeted, that the only accounts we, have hitherto received of the disastrous Cam paign in Bavaria are those contained iii the French Papers ) pr in those - Under the irnritecliate in fluence of France ) and therefore it would be tin jdst to decide upon the conlan of. General MAcx. merely upon the authority of thelkench statements., But. jf these ! St, ternents contain 'army thing the • semblaece of. truth, it certainly is Very diffitult - to account tbr the „plan adopted by the Austrian Gene ral. ',Why, if he found himself too weak to contend with the ki'lenai ) ;he did th - it, in the 'first instance, fall back upon the Inn, by which means his Army Would have been continuallyreinferced? why he 0' 4i:red the French to get iri his reir, and thereby to - cutoff his commueication with the Austrian,Dorninions 2 Why be obstinately persisted in cooping-up ;his Forces at Ulm,' in a position in which he ciytild neither attack' the Enerny e,•ith advantage, nor defend himself with effe6l.? and, niftily, why, havingcenSentedH to surrender his.. Army o'n the ilbt.h, he. afterwards agreed that they shotild lay clown thee arms dn the gOth ? arc questions which vtle fear Gen. nice will find it difficult to answer satisfanorily. It is true that he might have do hope of having the bleekade of Ulm raised by the 25th, but Surely it was an object of the greatest importance to keep the French Army em ployed as long as possible on that side of Bavaria, iri order to prevent them from marching towards the Inn, and attacking the Allies before the whole of the Russian TrooPsshoula arrive. But it is now useless to reason upon the subject. The French Army were set at liberty on the aorh, and there can be no doubt but that they commenced their march as soon as possible towards the other extremity of Bavaria. But While we sincerely deplore the disasters which our Ally hassus tabled, we by no means incline to feel any thinglike ,despondency, or to sittripo3e that the fate of the Cam paign is finally determined: It is absurd to suppose that the French can have achieved the total destruc tion of the AuStrian Army with the loss of fifteen houired men. It is true that ; the .Official Bulletins d o not mention any very obstinate Anions: but the Letters arum the -Seat of War; Of Which there arc several in the unofficial French Papers, all concur in suiting that there wore many severe engagements on many points of the. Austrian Line, in which the Austrian TroopS fought with their usual . k i rallantry and perseverance. In these the French, though they ultimately succeeded, must have suffered' _considerably, because it will be recol lened that the fOrrner fought.,in intrenchrnents A considqa* body of French Troops mast also be 6ent to escort the Austrian pri , ioners to France. BON A pARTg, with an Army thus. weakened, could pot arriveon the lan before the 26th of last month . fie was at Ulm on the ? tat, and the march to the Inn would take up at least five days. There would therefore Le time fur a considerable Army ,to 'colledt on that river, No one 'can siippose for a moment that there were no Troops Re serve left in the Austrian Dominions, On the contrary, it is stated' in the French 'Papers them that Austrian Troops were 'assembling from all quarters On the ,gaol. it is escer- OA:led beyond 4 doubt that the Division of "neral x igzoidv y E , consisting of eo,ooo men, effqled a I junCiien on the 'lstlt With the first Buision Colut'ziP, at least 0,060 *pug. I t is also flow I av,:ertained, that wbat we suggested as 1104 ~, probable, it true, namely, that lite Archduke FEE DINAND, succeeded itLeffejting his retreat, and we see reason to beliel, with little shalt of 20,000 . , men. The .Aschduke t would doubtless, hasten by a detour'io fain the Army'on the Inn. In addition to all ,this, the second Russian Column, consisting of 50,000 men, was expe42ed to arriveen . the Inn, at farthest, by the 30th of last month. Thus, therefore, there is every reason to believe that-. a Combined Army, consisting of nearly. 150,600 men, would be collected within a few days of the eGthoflast month, liat merelysuffieient to Make a stand against BONA.- Fiats:, but capable of depriving him 'of the fruit's at those . viff.lies Which lie has so extraordinarily ob tained. His only chance wod(d be in overwhelming the first part of this Force before the remainder .could join ; but such an event might, 1.% ; e should imagine, be Witham mach - difficulty prevent ed, by a little • inttlntraiing ,ori the part of- the Rkissian and Austrian' Generals; If the 'latter skilfully retire until, their forc . e is proPcrly bitted and has received its full accession 'of numbers,. BONApARTIiin advancing may find himself in a situ ation Of the utmost.peril and hazard. It is stated ina Taper of this morning, that' Go 'verinnent had 'received private accounts, stating, that' the Russians and Austrians had received a severe cheok uport, the. Inn, bita that the Alli e s had lost 0,000 - luon. We arc enabled to state., in the most I)oSit:tve:mariner,,that- Government have recc:ved no such accounts, trither iw the statement itself at all probable . , BERNAIYOry , a was Dot in sufficient force to make an attack upon the Allieck Army on the Inn, and it is evOent that• no accounts conLi yet be recejved, of any Mtion between the latter and tl.e.main Army of the French, which had marched Tiorn.the Bier. We beli'eve the statentent.to he, the repeti4on•of a rumour mentioned .in a fetter from Augsburgh, of the 0.2 d, which we inserted yester day:,- Vie then staied, and again observe, that the Tenth Bulletin of the French Army was dated from Augsbutit; the same. day, and did not mention any such success having been obtained, which it of . course would, if there had been any foundation:TOT the rnmoui. Areport of a more pleasing:description is, that the Archduke CITA - IMES had , totally defeated the . French in Italy. This, however, remains to be confirmed. The Archduke is thought; 'and perhals not without reason, to in danger of having a se . . cond French Army in, his rear. - \V rather, bolv ever, , incline to think that BONAPARTti will feet the • . • , . necessity of keeping his Troops in Germany toge iher, as he Will`prubatily want ,them all to meet the continually accniuulating . Allied Puree, Whicll he Would have still to contend with, whilst to detach a Frnallforee to Italy would be am° use. Upon a review of the whole sitbied,we think there is no reason to despond. The Citupaign has begun unfavourably for the Allies, but a; great P:trt of their immense resources remain untouched, and BoxAPARTE will not find it so 'easy task to defeat or ont-manoeuvre the Austriin and Russian Com-, bined Army as he has to defeat General MACK We wish we were enabled to sarsomething deci sive with resped to the condna of. Prussia. We are, however,' preeluded from doing so . by the want of intelligence from the North of Europe. The last Letters from Berlin, which are of the 2Vd ult, state, that three Camps of Prisaian Troops were to be formed; one in Lower Saxony, one in Anspach, and one in Westphalia :• they also state, that a. Paper had been issued by Count lIARDENBF.RG, which speaks in severe terms of the violation of the Neutrality of the Prussian Territory of Anspach by the French., Concutring accounts likewise state, the fayourable disposition of Prussia, and the grow. ing intimacy ,between the .Courts of • Berlin and Vienna. We thc!retbie.coufidently hope, that. P4li sia will lend an caive helping hand to.the cause of the Allies ) , in which case we think the fate of 80 7 NAPARTE and his Army can be 'no longer doubtful. IT is stated in one of the small French'Papers, that Caft ' t. Wite4lll, who has been so-long confined in the 'rmple at Paris, had put an end to his eKist cnce, upon reading the accounts in theManiteur ofthe defeat of the Austrian Army.--If it be true that that gallant Officer is no more, we have no doubt that lie has fallen a sacrifice to French cruelty acid treachery. Those who knew the firm and man . - iy spirit o(t hat beave man must he convinced that hG could never Lave aeted iu the mintier stated in the French Paliers. .130NArARTE'S desigrfs against the Colonies, the Commerce, and the Nravig;nion of this Countri:, are Yow openly avoi,vetl.
