BERLIN, OCT. 15, AT NOON.—(By an Extraordi- . 71-ary Gintrier.)—The Frencb had proposed to turn the Prussian Army and burn the magazines before I 'and near Nautuburgh. A piquet entered Leipzie and obtained 2000 louis d'ors and a Magistrate's cer tificate for 100,000 florins. But their plan bas not sUcceeded ; for early this morning advice was receiv- .. ed that the Prince of HOfriENLOHE bad lately de feated the Corps of Marshal SOULT. This'news has been publicly affixed up at the house of, the Gover nor here, the Minister SCHULENEURGH; It Is added,. that General RucuEL has defeated the, left wing of the Fredeli. - The main a&ion with the centre was expe6ted to take place yesterday.

'The first Secretary of the Posts, SORGE, has writ ten from ,Dresden to Berlin, " - and the Minister SCHULENBURGA has caused the intelligence to be affixed up, that a Courier had arrived at Dresden with advices that Prince' HoHENLoHE • had entirely defeated the Corps, of Marshal SOULT, killed tiooo, and taken. 14,000 prisoners. The official accOubts have net yet been received ,here. The Citizens of Berlin parade .the streets with 'shouts of long live the King: 'We are sorry; to say that part of the : magazines at Nautuburgh have been burnt by some spies. LEIPZIC, Our. 14.--We are now very quiethere. The two French detachments which passed through this City yesterday both - belonged to a dispersed' Corps,.and had wandered hither. Affairs are in a . very good situation for the Ger Mans. 'The Prussian advanced guard of 10,000 men' has maintained. its position against an enemy three times its number, though it unhappily lost its braveleader, Prince Lours FERDINAND of PRUSSIA. HANIEURGH, OCT. 18.—On the 15th Count Senui.tilßult6l4, Governor of Berlin, caused - a Pla-, „card,: - to the following effe&, to be pested on the Government House : 'Prince HOLIENLOHE . has totally defeated Ge neral SouLT.General Ruckik,:r, too, has defeated ~the left wing of the French—The grand and, de cisive 'a6tion with the centre will , take place to morrow." The PruSsian Minister, GROOTE, now at Berlin, wrote to a; friend at Hamburg)) to the above effeA, and expressed hjs solicitude for the official details,' which, he observed, were still wanting. The Corps of Generals 'lndium and Br:vett:Ea, it: appears, attacked the left wing of the French Army on the Hessian Frontiers, and defeated it between Frankfort and Cassel. AUGER EAU is reported to have been surrounded nod made prisoner; Br'E.RLIN, OCT. 14.---The Russian Imperial Chain , berlain, NOVOZWFZOFF, accompanied by an Orliccr, have arrived) here.. The Minister of State, VON AN - Otitis, set off yesterday for 4eipzie. D, r)' vCT. 14.—Prince Louis of Prussia is no More; he 'diedlike a Hero : he lost his life on the 10th, at , the passage of the Orla. Two balls pierced the order which he wore. His sword has .been brought to the King ; but his body, is in the posseSsion of the French. His brother, Prince GUSTUS, has demanded if.; 'but we know not whe- , titer it will begiven up. Prince HenErmorq: Inking direaed Prince Louts to hold out as long as nos- sible—he fought during six hours against more than: 20,000 French', although he" had no more. than , 6000 : men under his Command. The Prussians have lost 'fifteen hundred men in this affair.: It 'is said that:l.lle .French have suffered to. a greater extent. The soldiers are in despair at the loss of their Prince,, and will, most ',assuredly tight Ni'itit the greatest rage and animosity in the next affair..lt is thongbe there Was a general engagerrNta yesterday; 7 -t.'fri'id the presumption, arises from no firing' hating been heard throughout the 12th. It must ; have been most bloody if it has taken place,„ for the Prus-' sian Arrny - iss roused to the highest pitch. The Queen is returned. The Hereditary Princess of WEIMAR will arrive to-morrow. The Secretaries of the French Legation will set out to-night. • The attack which Prince LOUIS sustained took place between Rudolstadt and Saalfeld, near the bridge of Saalfeld : he had orders to defend this bridge, but not to attack the Enemy, as it was the object of Prince HonpNLonE to turn the Enemy. i. Prince : Louis, however; did not wait for this event, but attacked them, and received a musket ball in phis breast, Count NOSTELTZ, 'one of his three Ad jutants,.observing him unsteady upon his horse, has tehed to assist him, when a second musket-shot brought him to the ground, and, being seized. with the rattles in the thrbat, he expired in a few mO- . „mews. .NOSTEL,TZ mounted his horse, and, wishing to save the body of the Prince, fought like a Hero : he was, however, badly wounded,' and is now at Weimar. . At the _departure of the Courier who brought 1 this intelligence, the Army ,was ready for action, and a general engagement was hourlY 6tatpe6ted ; of course we expe6t the result will be decisive. .Prince LOUIS is a son of Prince AuGusros FEE- , DINAND, brother to FREDERIC the Great; he was I born in 1772, and was a Lieut.

The Prince's ;mall Corns was, at length, com pelled to fall back, owing' to the superiority of the Enemy, who were four tithes more numerous ; be sides, that the . death of this brave Leader Occasioned some .disorder among_the Prussians, who lost some cannon in this affair. The _Grand Army has ocq,u pied a camp neLtrWeihrar; and as . theFvench Army is only five leagues distant, - a general and decldve battle is daily expeaed.

" Hostilities between France and Prussia com menced t)n the 10th, when an aetion . was fought in the environs of Schleitz:i The accOunts agree'that the Prussians, in consequence of the brisk attack of the Enemy, at first sustained. a small loss, along with their brave General Prince Louts; but that in the end Prince HOHENLOHE gained a signal advantage over Marshal ,BERNADOTTE. The French appear to have endeavoured to penetrate through the Prussian army,, and' to divide it into two." WEIMAR, OCT. 1 I.—Count HAL , GWITZ arrived here yesterday feoM,Ertifrth, as did also the Marquis DE LUCCHESINI and Count GORTZ, the Saxon Minister. Yesterday M.

I . 4.—His Prussian Majesty has ordered the following Proclamation to be issued to . his All the efforts-of his Majesty, as well as those of his Allies, to 'maintain Peace, have beets unsuc cessful ; and unless the North of Germany, perhaps even Europe itself, is abandoned to the will of an Eneniy.'who knows neither restraint nor repose, and rendered a prey to the spnliations of his Armies, War is- inevitable. " His Majesty determined upon War, because the honour and the.se.cur6r of his States were. in danger. He would :have esteemed himself happy if he e6tila have Maintained Peace without blood shed. 'his known to: the Army,' the Nation, and 'the World ; and it is with the greateSt confi dence' that he leads his, troops to the ,combat to de fend 'Li Country and their national honour—for justice is with us. ‘` It did nor escape his Majesty that, the Army were desirous of war Some time since; and although from a necessary consideration of existing circum stances he did - not sooner accede to their wish, he is 'nevertheless convinced that nothing but the voice of_Honadr and Patriotisni inspired those sentiments which they have always publicly manifested. The' whOleNation,has already shewn the lively interest which they take in the War; and it is a great con solation to hiti Majesty, that the events which have taken plke have been not only inevitable, but that they have also the general assent of his people. " His Majesty is convinced, that the honourable and glorions spirit with which the genius of FRE DERIC has inspired' every Prussian, will strengthen the natural bravery of ithe Army, and enable it to support the inevitable fatigues of War. There are, however, in this War t an objeEt and considerations of .still greater importance. We have to , combat with an Enemy who has defeated numerous Armies around us, who has hu tfie mot powerful States, destroyed the most ancient Constitutions, and who has deprived More than one Nation of its independence and its patne; Behold the fate which was reserved for us !- -Nticiieroils 'Aetnies already -. menace our Frontiers;' - and --ar:coutionally reinforced. --the Prussian . . . narchy was to have tilisappeared, and to MIT cone th 2 property s ofa ; !tid our arroi:ant and avariCious•Etinies already look to the North of Germany as their spoil. " We fight, theretbre, for our i udependenee, fo: - our homes, for all that- is. dear to us ; and.if God grants the victory to our *just cause, to ourarms; and to that courage which indisputably animates every Prussian; we shall be the saviours of oppressed millions. Taere cannot be an individual in the-Army, from-the Field Marshal to the private Soldier, who under such cumstances s , can be tmanimated. Every Soldier who falls in the contest will die in the holy cause of hu-, inanity; and all those who survive will acquire , im mortal glory, and their proporti o n o f t h e grat i tu d e , the happiness, and the tears of joy of nations . from the general disaster. i" Who amongst . us can support the idea of see ing- our Country delivered over to the rapacity of a foreigner ? Let us consider also, that in combating for.ourselves„and in repelling th,, most, shameful ‘abje6tion, that can menace a Nation, we are at the same time the Saviours and the Deliverers of Ger jnany: The eyes of all Nations are fixed upon us, its towards the last support of all ,Liberty, of all Existence, and of all Order, in Europe. Th e vialorvi which .mus,t idethe objeat of our desires, is not an ordinary vidory. The object which we propose to ourselVes is great; ,hut the' means of an Enemy, elated with victory, ire also great : our efforts must, therctfore, be brilliant and decisive. • " His Majesty will share with joy the efforts, the dangers; , and the fatigues Which his troops are about to undergo. He knows that every thin& may be expeaed from his brave Soldiers ; he. knows that their unalterable zeal, their indefatig - abie vigilance, their intrepid firmness, and their unsha,kcn con stancy, will not abandon them tOr an instant, and that they will never Inrget, Under any cizcilmstances, tire high destiny which must be the measure of their glory. The destiny of Nations and of Armies is, it is true, in the hands of the Almighty ; but he almost always grants - the yioory to a just cause. • Let us defend that cause : the confidence which it inspires is . with us ; our coiemporaries applaud our zeal, and the most brilliant success will crown .our un dertakings. . • " Given at the-Head-quarters atErfurth, the 9th of October, 1806.!'
