We inserted yesterday, in a Second Edition, the Bulletin. issued by Government, of the contents, of the d;-,patehe... from Lord CA.TIICART, ' dated the 22d ult. from Petersburgh. For the information of those of our Readers who did not see this part of our impression, we re-insert the Bulletin this day. FOREIGN OFFICE, OCT. 15. " Accounts have been, this morning received from General Viscount CATIrCART, dated. St. P 'erqburgh , Sept, 22, and stating to the follow- ing effect ". Marshal Prince KUTU sow having withdrawn his Army from before Moscow, the enemy en tered it on the 14th. But the Emperor 61 . ,RinstA has determined to persevere, and refuse every overture to negotiate, direct.or indirect. " By every account the French lost 40,000 men in the battle of Borodino, and retreated 13 versts. Two days r after the battle, •KUTUSONV retired a , r - distance on the Moscow road ; he then en aeavoureil to find a position more tenable.near INloscow ; but, such not being to be found, he re tired, after, a Council of. War, to a strong - posi tion, leaving the enemy to , enter the city. " The position taken up by the Russians is nearly . 20 miles beyond Moscow, near Podolsk aiid- Wakedesk. The communications . of tl►e enemy - on the side of Smolensk are menaced. Thirty thousand men art.. near Ter " The Militia of , Katouga "and the surrounding countries are kept in their posit . ions. That of Moscow is with NuTtr . sow. A battle. in the new position seems inevitable at an early day. ‘ ... l l oßm . AzoFF's corps would be near 100,000 men in a few clays. ":.'The tictaithments from Riga and Finland were moving to join .'WITTGEMTEZN." • It will be seen from this document, that, as we judged from a perusal of the French Bulletins, the Russian Government remains firm and determined, and is entirely occupied with additional prepara tions to meet the enemy with an adequate force. The only fear, therefore,-as to the ultimate success of the Russian cause, has vanisted. The enemy, unable to advance from Moscow, will ere long cease, to be formidable. Their arrival in that City, an event to which 13UONAT!ARTE looked as the termination of his labours and the completion of his hopes,will , we eonfidentty anticipate, prove most di= sastrous to the French arms. Were even the French army to maintain their winter quarters in Mos cow, 'slow and silent, but certain, destruction Must await a large proportion of the troops. But by what magic is BUONAPARTE to close .the cam paign, because it suits the convenience of his fol. , lowers Will the Russians consent to close the Campaign ? and in what a situation will the French be placed it, on the commencement of winter, their opponents renew active operations The expectation of another great battle at KOUTOUSOFF'S new position, • Mentioned; in .the above Bulletin, referred, Of course, to a state of circumstances which soon ceased to exist. Buo- NArARTE, unable to advance further, now in his bleu reuiains upon the defensive, and waits to be attacked; Or rather in the hope that the Russians wL: allow his army uwinter's repose. We trust, however, that that repose will be effectually dis turbed..-- ' Some further Paris Papers to the 12th instant reached town last ni.L.,ht. They contain no addi tional information, except that the French army continued to repose at Moscow on the 23d ult. . Further accounts from Gottenturgh state, that a very considerable ExpeditiOn bad .sailed from Riga, under the command of_General ESSEN, sap posed to be destined against Mittau, where the enemy's force consisted principally of Prus sians. Thcreports from Riga mention, that 'great sickness prevailed in OITDINOT'S Corps, and that OUDINOT hiMself, and , two other GencialS, were dead, The i . :.xpeditlon from Riga is said to con= Bit of frOni 25 to 30,000 men. The new Parliament it is said, meet for the dispatch of business on the 24th of next month, sit for three or four v;yeelcs, - and adjourn till February. Wednesday being the Anniversary of the Birth of his Majesty the King of Spain ; VE,RI)INAINI) V the same was celebrated Nv ith great splendour by his Excellency the Spanish Ambassador, wlco ;;aye a grand dinner "on the OCCasion, at his . new Man sion in Grafton-street, at which were present the Members of the Cabinet, the Foreign Ministers, and other Voreigners of distinction.

The following is an extract of a letter from Sir PETER PARKER, Of his Majesty's ship Menelaus, to Sir ROBERT LAWRIE,. who commands in Sicily. The letter de-• scribed the spirited attack on the port of St. Ste:- phano, in the hay of . Orbitello, on the 10th of Adgust, in Which was shewn, as . Sir PE'rER • PAR KER says, " what British seamen could accom plish, when opposed to the foes of their country." The following is the passage relating to the deL ceased gallant young ofAcer, and it is honourable to the feelings of the writer, as w6ll as to the per son whOSe heroism it commemorates : `:‘ Our success is greatly (h - imped by the loss - of Mr.`6EußcE'lt. r . lloMas Mox.ao, Midshipman, who was shot in the act of Waving his hat, and crying out f lluzza, .liuzza! fire away, boys, fire !' 1- mention thiti as tbe.,only means I have of paving a tribute to the Memory Of this youth, wliose gal lantry,and good con;:luct, and the many virttics he possessed, endeared him toall, and his death has caused A sensation Of sorrow and grief in the ship not to be. described ; from the Captain to the low est boy have shed tears." The deceased young hero, whose memory is so honourably embalmed in the hearts of his friends, and companions in the gallant enterpeize„was the son of the late Capt.

OCT. .----Arnong the Public - cereinenie's Which' excite the„highest interest,- we must_ distinguish . that which unites all rinks of citizens at th`e foot of the altars, to raise their grateful voices towards Heaven, and to render thanks , for• those brilliant triumphs which change the fate of empires, the never-to-be effaced recolleCtions of Which are an inheritance of glory to nations. Never were these great:sbleinilities accompanied by more noble, o;.• more affecting eirennistance3, than those which we witnessed on the 4th inst. One of, the . finest mornings of anttuun opened' on the capital of the great - empire. Numerous groups of citizens filled the squares and nublic walks, communicating to each other with eager ness the important news which had just arrived from the centre of Russia. A double senti:nent animated all hearts. The indignation excited by the atrocities"of the barbarous Rostopschin, was mixed with the athriiration inspired- by the in vincible courage.and heroic generosity of the Con queror. Every preparation was made in the Imperial Chapel for the religions solemnity about to take place. A numerous concourse of spectatot'S filled the body of the chapel, and the ;galleries Were enibellislied by the presenCe of "the most distinguished Ladies of the Court. 'On the contF: tenanees of the mothers and wives, whose husbands and sons devoted to the set vice of the Mona! ch i support, under his auspices, the honour of _the - French name, might be read the expression ofjoy and of hope. Our: feelings, however, were raised to thelr highest pitch ..when the Euipres-s and Queen ap neared in, all the splendour; of Imperial Majesty. What an affecting spectacle for the Freneh,- 7 -that of a young Sovereign, with the graces and the virtues in her train, bowimr, her head befo:e the God of Armies, imploring his s all-powerful pro tection tor a beloved husband, and offering to - Heaven the homage of the 'noblest and sweetest affections which can,animate the heart of a Queen,' a wife, and a mother r After the celebration almass, there was a circle, at which heiMajeity received the homage of the Princes . , Grand Dignitaries, of the great Officers of the Crown, the Ministers, and principal pub lic Functionariei:! - The Empress thetrieturned to the palace of St. Cloud. ' About two o'clock the people poured: in crowds to the metropolitan church, where Fe Demn was td be sung for the memorable successes that had at , tended the arms of the Einperor since the pas-. sage of the Niemen, to the great battle of Moskwa and the capture of Moscow. At half-past two his• Serene Highness the Prince Arch-Chancellor arrived in the hall prepared for his reception in the Archiepiscopal .palace. He found there the Prince Vice-grand Elector, and the other Chief Officers of State. They repaired in•• procession to the Cathedral, at the gate of which they were received by the Cardinal Arch bishop of Paris, at the head of the Clergy, who walked before them to the places prepared for thin reception. Numerous detachments of the-Imperial Guard.. and of the Guards of Paris, under arms, Were drawn up in the body-and' in the principal' nave of the church, In the course of the day there were three salutes of cannon, and in the evening al general • What gave to all this religions, civil, and mili tary, pomp an august and national character, was the enthusiasm which animated all \the spectators. Every one felt proud of being ti Frenchman ; and associated himself, at least in idea, with the.ex, ploits and the glorious devotedness of that great army, whose triumphs will astonish the most dis tant poste' ity. While reflecting on the acts of inhu manity which disgraced the ptibliciunctionaries at Moscow, they' felicitated themselves on the 'triumph of 'civilization over .barbarism.—of he roism over ferocity. This 'formed the. subject of every coaversation. Europe, it was observed, would no longer fear a second invasion of those barbarianS of the North, who once before eon-f -guished the sacred torch of reason and tke Never again will they introchice among us their miserable superstitions, their ignorance, and their ferocious manners. Europe; which these incen diary hordes of Tartars 'had threatened, now tran quil under the reg,is of.

The victory was then coniple:e, and the Cossack 4, under Platow, had set, out on a night attack after the rear-guard of the French : army, composed of the cavalry under Murat, who was in full retreat for Kaiouga. Buonaparte, thinking himself unsafe in his position at Moilislk, had accompanied Murat in person on the road “1 Kalouga. The Frerich prisoners, when brought in, stated that Murat was run through the body by a Cosiack, soon after the retreat was sounded, and "had fallen from his horse. It was ..YsTutusoff's intention to renew the action after taking up ano ther position ; the intrenchments which he, threw itp having been destroyed by the dreadful cannon ade of both armies on the 7th. No doubt what, ever can be entertained, from the 'information I have been able , to gather, that the victory was complete on the part of the Russians. Kutusoff, who was on horseback and saw the whole of the affair, repeatedly -uttered exclamations of joy"; and at night he kissed all the Officers, who came 7ound him with the returns from their various corps. The prisoners brought- in by the Russians were mostly Poles, Italians, Spaniards, and Swiss, all miserable looking wretches in their appearance; none but the Officers were French'.
