Thi4 morning a Gottenburgh Mail arrived, from which we have made the following extracts ; GOrrENBURGH, OCT. 26.—A Gentleman just arrived from Riga states, that all classes ,of the Russians are, most anxious fur the continuation of the war, and , that 14 of. the first Nobility had waited upon •the-Einperor ALEXANDER, to 'request . 'he would not make peace, but rather burn Peters . burgh, should. it be Necessary. OFFICIAL ACCOUNTS OF THE ARMIES. The Commander in Cllief of the Armies, Field Marshal General Prince Kutu sow, reports to his Imperial Majesty as follows From the to -a n of Podolsk, of the (6) 18, September, According to my submissive report of the -Ith of this month, I continue my movements towards Moskwa. After having- in prosecution of my plan, to approach nearer to the enemy's lines of communication, made two marches, I left my' rear-guard behind me on the river• Pochra, in the position hear Kutakow, and made a forced flank march do Podolsk. Last night my rear-guard, by ,a stolen march, followed the army on. this flatak road, having left a party of Cossacks behind them, who were to make a false movement towards Kolotima, as if the army bad likewise made its retreat. towards there. I still continue to receive accounts of this false movement, the enelny having followed the Cos sacks in divisions This affords me an oportunity of placing the army so that it will to-morrow, after havißg made a flank movement of 18 wersts, on the Kaluga Road, and sent a strong - party on the Moshaisk . Road, very much' threaten the rear of the enemy. • I hope that by these means .the enemy Will en deavour to give me battle, from which, being in an advantageous situation,,l may expect the same result as at Borodino. Sept. 11(29), from the village of Krasnya Poebey. The army, which is at present on the old Ka luga road, and by its position covers Tula, Ka higa, and Orei, has happily performed the move ment which I submissively explained in my re port of the 18th inst. The army, by , making this flank movement, after having crossed the . river Moskwa to conceal its intention, put the enemy' into doubt by every march, and , masked Itself whilst taking ; its road to„. the iniended point, by false Movements' of the light troops who. made demmi'Arations towards Kolomna and some: times towards Supuehau, which were followed. by large bodies of the enemy.---The rear-guard which crossed the river Pochra followed after, and it, is at present in a parallel line with the army towards MoskWa, about tenswersts distance, and has not been disturbed. by_ the enegly since turning off from the road to Kolonina. The enemy, who has lost sight of our army, and . still remains in doubt, detaches strong parties out , on - different roads to discover us. On the 7th (19th), the Major-General, with a party of Cos sacks, and the Mariapol hussars; discovered the enemy near the village of Snomensk, attacked four regiments of the enemy's cavalry, and made 200 men prisoners, together with a Colonel, 16 offi cers, and 40 subalterns. 'A great number of them were cut down, and he totally defeated them.—Even our paroles bring in many pri soners, the number of which sent in yesterday • and to-day amount to 500 men. As. I am now posted on the road, and have approached the' enemy's rear on the side of Moshaisk, in order to operate against it, I have sent out a strong detachment, under the command of ,g Major- General Doitocow, from whom I have this day received, a report, stating his having *already 'suc ceeded in making six officers and 200 privates.pri soners meanwhile Lieut. Col DA WYDOW, of the Acbtyi'Ae Ileitnent 01 Ilu—ars, has long been posted between Chatsk and 3ioshaisk, and per forms 11;s operations with great success in stopping the enemy's communications. ,The adjutant Gen.' Baron WINZINGERODE, who is posted on the road to Twer, has also a detachment on that to Jaros law.; and, in concert with the operation& of the. army on the Tiloshaisk Road, will li4ewise act on the same. General . Donocncir at this moment reports; that be has discovered the corps of General LA MUSE, consisting of infantry, cavalry, and artil lery, on, the road from Moshaili to Moskwa.— The rest concerning the iiio:;aaisk r: ad, your 1 - m- perial Majesty. will .receive, from the report of Major-General Do Roc If 0 \V, which I herewith for ivard in the origin 1. • kXTRACT ,FROM THE REpORTS OF MAJOR-GENERAL DOROCIIOW TO PRINCE KUTUSOPF, OF THE 10TH (22D) SEPT. FROM THE FIRST -REPORT. . ' After having assembled my detachments, and bad at midnight arrived at the village ,of Sehara pow; on the road to 'Borowsk, I received in formation that a great quantity of baggage was coming on the road from Sniolensk, I there, fore detached a , party of CossackS, consisting •of 40 men., .under the command of the Solnik TUDI,N, to procure information, and be having informed me that he had discovered enemy's baggage under . a 4rong escort, in the village of Percliutkino, 1 immediately sent him a reinforcement of 200 Cos sacks, and two quadron of ,the Body Guards.' But this brave officer, without Waiting for the re inforcement, pushed on to the village by break of day, cut a considerable number down, and took two captains, five office's and ,92 men of lesser rank, prisoners ; and as several of them took. shelter in the barns to defend themselves, he set them on fire, and blew up 36 carriages with ar tillery ammunition waggons. The whole road to Borowsk is full of the ene my's marauders, s againsfwbom I am taking all ne cessary measures. By .the prisoners reports we know that the Bth corps is posted in Moshaisk, and that Gen. DEmßßowsKt is dispatched with his division from Moskwa on the road taßorowsk, but of "which I • shall endeavour to obtain More certain intelligence. A detachment which I bad sent but under the command•of Col. Sinvnas, consisting of 150 Cos sackS and two squadrons of the hodydragoonA, has attacked the rear guard, which covered the pak of artillery, and taken six officers and,97 men pri soners ; the rest they cut down, and blew up above 2Q carriages laden with cartridges. . . A party of the Hussar Regiment of tlizabeth gorod which was sent out on the BoroN.vski road, towards Moscow, ,has likewise taken fifteen men pr►soners. FROM THE SECOND. The same detachment, under Col. SIEVRES, supported by some hussars, has attacked a con voy on its way to join the enemy's army, of whom they cut a. number to pieces, and took 111 men prisoners, they have also, on their way, taken NEY'S Adjutant, and a Quarter-masterbearing the rank of Captain-. By many emigrating inhabitants, I : have re ceived pOsitive information, that the enemy is drawing in, great numbers on the road to Podolsk. The corps of General LAMusE, - 5000 men strong, has been distovered, who has taken . his night quarters at ,15 wersts distance from .me. Should any iinprudence . on his part put it in my power to make an attempt. on him, I shall not suffer the opportunity to slip: EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM CADIZ, DATED OCT. 20. Appearances' indicate that the enemy intend to evacuate Valencia, probably witla an intention of uniting their forces, and penetrating into Arragon. EXTRACT' OF A LETTER FROM OPORTO, DATED OCT. 22.

WINDSOR APPARITION.-The good people of Windsor have been lately much alarmed by the agitation into whiCh a sentinel, stationed on the Castle-terrace, had been thrown by what be deerned a supernatural appearance. The man, it . seems, saw a figure approaching him, which he challenged, and, receiving no answer, attempted to stop with his bayonet, but found he, had thrust it into " thin air."—The disappointment had such an effect upon him, that he called lustily for help, and when the guard- came to his assistance, was found in great alarin and agony. A substitute was _left, and at the guard-house the man was treated. ; with great kindness and Sympathy lie: was well-known for. his bravery, and aki scion as be re- • cc:tiered his spirits, he expressed his regret.that had given way to a foolish panic, and in com,, pliance with his earnest entreaty was permitted to resume his post. - In about null' an hour, af ter, however, he uttered. a similar outcry, and a guard again hastened to relieve him. He was found in a swoon, with a part of his gun broken otf. When he recovered, he stated that the same appearance had preseat to him, and had apparently moved to the wall, and that he had broken his piece in the attempt to strike it, In that situation, but, being again disappointed in the expectationof a solid substance, his terrors brought hint to the state in which he was discovered. It has been rmnoured that some optical trick had been played upon him from apart, ments in the Castle but it is well-known that the suspected apartment was not occupied at the time, and the account of the man stated, that the figure was wholly dark, another circum. stance calculated to dispeove such a rumour, The more rational solution given,is, that ghosts and, goblins had been the subject of conversation some time in thenight, while theman was preseat,, and that his imagination had betrayed hitt itito' h's perplexities and distusscs.
