DUTCH PAPgdB. trriciAt ACCOUIVr of the lIATTLE near IiREDA.! (Train tar N4trtandst* Siaats• Courant, of the lath.inst) Lodibout, in the quarter of Bred), Jan 11. At thre b'clock this morning, Lieut.-General 'Von Bulow put in motion the troops which hb had concentrated at Breda, in order to ford the posi tions of the enemy between the fortress and Ati. twerp. The whole cotps advanced in' three columns , The column forming, the right wing proceeded, under the command of General Oppen, towards Westwetel, and was supported through.Crrootzun --dert and Papendonk by the centre ) under the com mand of Gen. Thumen. The column on the left, commanded by Lieut.-Gen: Von Borstell, directed its march on Hoogstratti, and the general move ment was combined with the march of the English troops by Rozendaal on Kalmhout. Our object was completely attained—Westwezel, Loenhout, and Hoogstraten were taken and occupied by the Prussian columns. The action .was rather severe at the two" lastLmentioned places. In the attack which'Colonel Stetterheim made with three bat talions of Thumen's division on Loenhotit, a Pills- . sian Captain was killed, and three inferior Officers wounded. The French, *who left behind them Many killed and Wounded, were briskly pursued in their retreat on'Antwerp,.and it is the intention of General Von BuloW to advance to-molTow with theqwhole of his carps in that direction.

The General of Cavalry Baron Frimont had,,on the 31st of December, made a reconnoisince from Ensisheim upon:St. Croix, under the direction of Count Hardegg. Colonel Baron Mengen led the advanced guard, consisting of three divisions, and received orders to attack, with the first son, all the' advanced posts which the enemy bad placed on the road) and, if possible, to enter St.-Croix with the flying enemy, at the same time to cut off his communications, and pursue him to the other side of the town : the two other divisions were to post themselves on the right and left of the place. The enemy's videttes and advanced posts were overthrown and cut down ; some troops of cavalry, however, stood readylo receive our brave men, though after a severe onset they were , driven through the town by Colonel Mengel' :. but some of them fired from the windows of the houses on our men ; and on this occasion fell the brave Wolff, Adjutant of Prince SchwArtzenberg's balans ; and Lieut. Baron Molivily was wounded. As, however, the dense fog which came on (lid not permit us to reconnoitre the enemy's positio❑ between St. Croix and Colmar, and arrange an attack. General Hardegg withdrew his troops to their first position. The loss of the. enemy in this affair was very considerable; 11 prisoners and 30 horses fell into our hands : our - loss was trifling. In the mean time,COlonel SCheibler, with 150 Cossacks, and 50 hUssars, surprised the enemy be tween Rusterbeirn - and -llessenheim, and drove him,baCk to the glacis of New Brisach ; we took 11 prisoners and 20. horses.

However, this seems certain, that nll 'idea of peace or negociation is, over for the present. . Trade has not revived as you expected in Eng land. but the export trade becomes more ani mated daily.—Their oppression was so great that thcyatill think their emancipation a dream, and are alarmed at every report.

The Danish'arsoistice has been extended to the 6th inst, (to-day). Hamburgh bolds out still. The following is a curious trait of the Dutch commercial character.
