The enemy lost upwards of 1000 men. A number of horses, camels, &c. fell into our hands. The Enemy afterwards endeavoured to penetrate into the territory of Grusten, but were there repulsed likewise. " SURCHAL CHAN hassince requested l eave t o put himself under the proteaion of the Russians." His Imperial Majcszy has expressed his gracious satisfaebou at the condutiof Prince BAGRATHION,iH consequence of his dispatch'in raising the Regiment of Jager Life Guards with which he was entrusted, LANDSHUT; SEPT. 24.—Marshal SOULT'S army has been in full march these two days past. They are moving upwards upon both sides of the Danube,. -apparently towards Franconia, and will be joined by numerous cavalry that have been in the Upper Pa latinate'soaie time. NORDLINGEN, SEPT 24.—The Corps under Mar shal DAvOusT, whose head-quarters have been at Swabisch-hall, has now broke up, and is upon the march towards .Anspach • and Wurtzburgh. Near the latter place a very large Army will be formed. . FROM THE M AIN , SEPT. 27. — The following i s the strength andsituation of the'different Corps of ".the French Army in our and other Countries: That of Mardi - al SOULT is concentrated between Pfaffenhofen, Newmarkt, and _ngoldstadt. , Marshal BERNADOTTE is posted between Nurem .burgh. and Furth ; 'both corps are under the coin . ;nand . of the latter, and make a- total of 60,000 ...men. Marshal DAVOLTST's Corps, on its march from Oettingen to Anspach to reinforce the former, con , sists of 3000 men. Marshal LEFEBVRE'S Corps (ci-devant MoRTIEH's) is drawing towards Schweinfurth, to form a junetion with the troops in that quarter, making in the whole E' . 0,000 men. Marshal NEY is advancity , from Swabia to Fran conia. All the troops on the Werre are assembling near Hemelburgh, to march by way of Frankfort and Aschaffenburgh to reinforce Marshal AUGE BEAU. BERLIN, SEPT. 30.—Never did the Public feel such an interest as at the present moment. Every. one is an enthusiast, burning with desire to have the first information of our Army's aaivity. The El'ing's cause is that of the whole country, and there is scarcely an individual' who does not take part in it to such a degree as to be ready to . sacrifice life and fortune for the country and its paternal Sovereign. One individual, a Commissioner of Justice, has of le.red half his income to the Military Fund for sup porting the War, and has already. made the first monthly payment of 50 rix dollars. As far as we can learn, His Majesty's head-quar ters are at present at. Naumburgh„ which; however, cannot be looked upon as the centre, as the troops are continually advancing. The return of Her Majesty is shortly expeaed. As a proof of the popular enthusiasm, several. of the Communes in Magdeburgh have ordered two tables to b e h ung up . i n t h e c h urc h es, in which the names of the recruits are to be inscribed who shall distinguish themselves either by merit or ill beha viour. , The inhabitants of Halle have offered vo, luntary contributions towards carrying on the War. Tn Silesia the Members of the Administration ad dressed the recruits of e - ach distria with patriotic , speeches when they marched to join the Army. LAPOREST has received his passports from the headquarters at Naumburgh. 7 MERMIAGH, SEM 30.—T11c whole of the Prussian Army is now nearly concentrated, and, in Saxony, amounts to nearly 150,000 men. The troops of the. Ele&orate of Saxony having joined Prince Hourgtogn, several more regiMents have marched, for the Grand Army, which has, likewise been joined by General KALKREIrries Corps from Pomeranea. . . GOTHA, SEPT. 30.—The Negotiations between France and Prussia are nearly closed. In the last declaration of Prussia, ;t was 'insisted that France should evacuate Germany, and no longer oppose any obstacles to the settlement of affairs in the North ; at the same time she was invited to join in a Nego tiation for the peace .of the Continent. The Bth of October is, we timber leam,'ttle day fixed tor the' decision either of Peace or-'War. The Prussian head quarters are removed from Naiimburgii to.Wietnar. The Postmasters General haVe given dirthions to the Agent at Harwich for the Packets with the Haniburgh and Bremen Mails t'o proceed dire& to Cuxhaven, as they dkl prior to the differeneeS with Prussia. This regulation takes place on Wednesday next, with ,the Mails of that, day. • ' Saturday Their MAJESTIES, Duke and Dutchess of YORK, and all the PRINCESSES, went to Bulstrode, the seat of the Duke of PORTLAND, paid a visit, and returned at four o'clock. Afterwards the Duke and Dutchess left Windsor for Oatlands. , , Yesterday morning His MAJESTY," attended by Generals lirtzitoy and MANNINGHAM, *Colonels TAYLOR and DESBROW, inSpe6ted the Royal -Re giment OfHorse Guards, Blues, and the King's Own Royal Stafford Regiment of Militia, in the Court yard ; afterwards walked to church with PrinceSses AUGUSTA and MARY,, attended by Lady THYNNE, Generals - FITZROY and MANNINGHAM, Colonels TAYLOR and DESBROW, where a Sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. HALLAM, from .2d-Corin thian, chap. xiii. and th verse. " Be or one mind, live in peace, end the God of I , JVCand pc. - acc shall be with you." Afterwards His MAJESTY and PRINCESSES went to Frogmore to dinner, and returned to the Palace' at three o'clock. Her MAJESTY, Princesses ELIZA BETH, AUGUSTA, and SOPHIA, heard 'divine servine performed in the PAlace ; afterwards went to. Frog- more, and returned' with His MAJESTY. His MAJESTY is expeOed in town 'on Wednesday. Tht% PRINCE of WALES, DUKE Of CLARENCE, and Suites, set off yesterday from Carltiin 'House, on their way tbr the Earl of DARLINGTON'S, at Raby Castle, near Durham; Yorkshire. In a few days their Royal Highnesses purpose visiting• Lord DON-: DAS, at Aske Hall, near Richmond, Yorkshire ; and, on their return, it is said, they will also visit the Duke and Dutchess of RUTLAND, at Belvoir Castle, near Granthatn, Lincolnshire. The PRINCE of WALES, it is Aaid, has written a Letter to Lord GRENVILLE on the subje& of Mr Fox's-Funeral, expressing his regret that he could not with propriety be permitted . to join in , the mournful ceremony. The Letter in atre&ing terms deplores the death of Mr. Fox; which his Royal Highness represents as a national loss: It is also said to breathe an interesting, spirit of filial duty.— Lord GRENVILLE has laid this Letter . before HIS MAJESTY. We are sorry to learn that a serious difference Has arisen between the Duke of NORFOLK and Mr. SHERIDAN, on the subjea of the music which the latter had ordered to accompany the funeral procei sion of Mr. Fox. The Duke thought the solemnity of the Ceremony' would be lessened , by the intended music, Which. Mr. SHERIDAN conceived would ren der it More impressive''and affecting. As they were both cordial friends to the deceased, and must each have been animated by a desire to shew all possible respect to his remains; it may be hoped that this mis understanding will soon pass away. THE THEATRE.—The_ pleasant "Comedy of The Winider introduced, Mr. CARLES again to the Public on Saturday last at Drury-lane Theatre, in the :part of Cotimet,Briton. Mr. CARLES appeared a few years ago at Covent• Garden Theatre in the part of Othello, and has since that period improved his talents in sever - pi provincial Theatres. His figure is goof, arid he has an expressive countenance. • There is d harSh . - ness in hig .voice which is not very well adapted to chariiders of. a 'light and airy description, but the good sense which his a6ting obviously displays, and his general powers, : will very well qualify him for those ofa. moral and sententious cast. Colonel Briton, there fore, is certainly not the kind of part best calculated to shew the abilities of this Gentleman, as it re quires more ease, gaiety, arid humour, than he ex hibited. However, he will undoubtedly prove a very useful Performer in parts suitabl e t o hi s qua lities. CHERRY performed Gibly for the first time, but as SPARKS, whose Caledonian accent rarely comes into play, is at this Theatre, there seems to be as little occasion for divesting him of the part as pro priety in doing so, particularly as CHERRY is by no means well qualified for it.—The rest of the Performers have been seen too often to require any particular notice. ELLISTON is Certainly too tbrmal in Felix, and Miss DUNCAN too childish and affeEted in Violante. The Forty Thieves is still very at tra6live, and contributed essentially towards filling the Theat re. 'The Tragedy of Coriola nus is preparing. at Co vent-garden Theatre in a style of magnificence suitable to its dramatic excellence. KEMBLE is per haps more successful in the hero of this Piece than any of his charaders, and indeed performs- it in such a manner as. 'would most probably have fully satisfied its immortal Author. The 'younger son of the, respe&able musical ve teran, Mr. HOOK, is busy in an historical Drama for Drury-lane Theatre. The Managers, it seems, have a good opinion of the Piece, as they are said to be making great preparations in piauresque and appro priate scenery. The juvenile Dramatist has already 'she,wn very promising talents. STEPHEN'KEMBLE is gone back to NeViicas4e, in 'order to wind- up his last season at that place, and then wholly relinquish the charader of a Ma nager. Sixteen Vessels are now loading in the River for Buenos Ayres, and one for the Caraccas. The conquest of the former Settlement haS afforded a probable mart for the show goods which have long lumbered the windows of our milliners, haberdashers, &c.: and all the shops c: this - great City have been rummaged for this stale finery to adorn cur sisters of La - Plat. DUBLIN, OCT. 7. We are happy to see , :it announced 'adver tisement from the Direllors-General.,a Inland Na vigation, that the great difficulty upon the Naviga; lion fYetween. Limerick and Killaloc, the making a Cnt through the rock at Parteen, has been over coMe, and that it is now opened for trade. Three. Vessels, with heavy cargoes from Dubin, were towed through it by horses to Limerick---all ear nest of the advantages to be expelled from such a communication between the two Cities. The Counties of Galway, Clare, and Tipperartr, will speedily profit of this Navigation ; wflen the Grand Canal Company shall have fulfilled their contract with the Dire6tors-General fbr, the .Na vigation from Athlone to Portumna, which trey are forwarding with great spirit,, a capital Navi gation will- be opened by the Shannon from Lanes borough to Limerick, a tract of about eighty Irish miles, immediately - ..communicating with the Counties; of Roscommon, Longford,. West meath, King's County, Galway, Tipperary, Clare, and LiMerick, and from Shannon Harbour, near Banagher, with Dublin by . the Grand Canal. --;We learn' further, - with great satisfa&ion, that the 'Royal Canal Company have carried their works to Mullingar, from - whence. to Dublin their whole Line will soon be, opened. They 'are also ra pidly advancing the construclidn of an aquednel and harbour at the Broad-stone, and a comtriuni :cation with the tide-water at.the Liq;_!y. We learn equal Satisfaalon that the works for the navi gation .of the : Barrow are advancing with no less prospeCt of success. - When that shall be completed a navigation will be:opeiied - communicating with Dublin, by the Grand Canal, with Athy, Catilow, and Ross; upon the Barrow, with Inistiogde and Thoniastown, upon the Nore ; and with Watcriord, Carrick and -Clonmel, upon the Suit - . AjunEtion of the Royal Canal with the Shannon, and the completing the navigation of that great river from LanesborOugh to Lough Allen, are still wanting, and we do not doubt will be considered with just at tention. • OXFORD, OCT. 1 1 . Wednesday last the Rev. Henry Richards, D. D. ReEtor of Exeter College, :having been nominated by his Grace the. Duke of Portland Chancellor of the University, was, in full Convocation, invested with the.Oftice of Vice-Chancellor for the Year ensuing. The Rev. Michael Marlow, D.-D, President of St. John's College; the Rev. 'Whittington Laudon, D.p. Provost of Worcester College ; the Rev. John Par sons, D. a Master of Balliol College; and the Rev. David Hughes; D. D. Principal of JesUs -- c..:011ee, - . were also notninated Pro-Vice-Chancellors. • LANCASTER, OCT: 1 1,--Seven dead bodies have been this W-cek thrown on the coast near this town, supposed to be a part of the untb'itunate sufferers who were lost in the King George Packet,.on the 14th ult. near Hoylake, on their passage from Park gate to Dublin. One was found at Hestbank, and another at Pilling, on. Monday ;. four at Heysham, on Tuesday ; and one at Thurnham, on Wed nesday. They all appeared. to be broad-set mid dle-aged men, and dressed like labourers in lais bandry. - A Virginia Paper contains. the Speech of the Chairman of the Quarter Sessions at PortSmouth, in allusion ,to the differences existing between the United States and Great Britain.,—" Let us depre cate," said he, " all contention with that magnani mous Nation from whom we are spncig, and whose language, customs, religion, and, I trust, whose vir tue we inherit : although a fatality in pnlitics has effeited a separation in our Governments, let us be united with her in ,the glorious enterprize of main taining the liberties, and promoting the happiness of the world, against *that fital and stupendous influence which wars against them."—The As; sembly frequently interrupted his Address by their applause. 7 A woman lately died at New York in consequence of a slight scratch_ on her arm by a pin. An ,American Vessel; which touched at St. He lena,reports, that a French Privateer of considerable force, having mistaken one of Sir EDWARD PEizEw's Frigates for an Indianian in the Bay, had been sunk' by a broadside, in consequence of which the greatest part of the crew perished.. • The late hurricane in the latitudes of America, which 'proved so disastrous to Sir R. STRACHAN'S Fleet and the Jamaica convoy, has done infinite da mage to the American Traders. The New-York Papers teem with losses of this kind: even before their own Harbours . ; and. in very few instances were the crews saved: On Saturday J. ELKIN PI,IIELS underwent an examination, touching his bankruptcy, before 'the Commissioners, at Guildhall.' .After a few questions had been put to' him, ho was ordered to attend a general examination on the 28th of this month. The grand Prison of War now building on Dart moor, under the . auspices of the Lord Warden, is likely to give rise to a new town in that hitherto dreary region. Indeed it is already begun, and it is to be called Prince-Town, in compliment to his Royal Highness the Duke of CORNWALL SODDEN DE 2i m.--- - Yesterday afternoon a man, Went to the Public-house called the Dark 7 house, in Darkhouse-alley, Billings - gate, arid having sat there a few minutes suddenly expired. Medical assistance was procured, but without effea, It appeared, from papers in his pocket, that his name was William Kerby, and that he lived at Gravesend. From a letter of recommendation to St. Thomas's Hospital found in his' pocket, he is supposed to have Come to London for advice.. He was taken to the Bone house to be owned. Monday evening, at. seven o'clock, as Mr. SHUT' : T . LE, of Reading - , Iii? ) - gler, was passing over. Beck barn ton Downs in his cart, h i e pe7ceived a hat lying in the road, Which he got out to pick up : 'upon which he was immediately knocked down by three lows on foot, who cut off his . pockets, contain ing 200 guineas in cash, and I, tool. in Bank notes. It is supposed that they hod :horses be longing to them in the neighbourh oo d, • as h e ob served a horseman leacting three saddie-horses ; and Mr. S. had 'his hand scratched' as if it had been' luxe by a spur, El 1, lan D. • ; - • " • : DUKE.OI , IIF.I)FORD's AG RI CU:.T AI, TC (Con/btu:ite? from 0;11' PaPfr ' . 1 ,'.

The garrison, consisting of the foot. and the Wicklow Militia, with the Cc , :ps ce:" Artillery, were under arms to receive . him. This' morning, his Grace - and : suite; accompinled 1„ el .CLANCARTY, rode through the sheep fair, in hi Lent ship's 'carriage, which, although SUnday, was , et according to ancient, but indecorous usage: The : Duke was much struck with the pieturesque a: , ; !as.- blage of such immense bodies of sheep. (amounting to nearly 100,000) kept so skilfully detached, with . - out the use of pens or dogs, by the aaive vigilance of the_ Irish shepherds. The scene was much height ened by the fineness of the weather. His Grace closely inspe&cd the several flocks, pointing out those which had derived most improvement by the' cross of the New Leicester breed. Afterwards he rode into the town, and viewed the New Rooms and spacious ..area for the exhibition of Show Cattle belonging to the Farming Society,, whose invitation to dine with then on Monday and Tueday 'he graciously ac cepted. A - Considerable portion of the sheep were sold even on this (lily (the Sabbath), which, itseems, is a day of rest neither from laboor or profit at-Balli nasloe Fair. The prices were higher than those of Ist year full 3s.'pee head on the average. The two s! e.rr wethers of the County stock fetched from 301. to 401. a score ; : the prime II ;cks; with the Leicester, • reached as high as 521. 1 0 s.----Tfie Svc e:y dined numerously together, as usual, with their high ly tespeEled President, Mr.: FOSTER, in the "Chair. Soon after the cloth was drawn, he called the atten tion of the Society . to a letter with which he had been honoar: d by his Grace the Doke of BEDFUED, the cen:euts of which he should have the pleasure of communicating to' the Society. He then read the-letter, in which his -Grace recommends to the' Society a continuance of that regard to the breeding • stock of'lreiana, so essential to the wellfare of the Imperial Kingdom,' as the ,food of man. -It is an , elegant and interesting Composition, with a perusal, of which the Poblic would be highly gratified, and which will probably be laid before them, under the threCtion of the Society. ThF letter closvd wi stating, that his Grace had ordered : to be shipped for Ireland,_viz. a Bull of the Hereford kind, a ditto of be North Devon, six Tops of the South .Down, and six ditto of the New Leicester, which his Grace re quested the Society would accept, and apply in such manner OS. appeared to than adviseabie for the improvement of the stOck. vt Ireland.-The thanks of the Society were voted to his rsi3 race for this liberal mark of attention to tiro objet of the Socitty, and his health was drank-, accompanied with-the londest applause.e--To T morrow: the Doke w i ll v i ew di e Prize Stock in the Area (which were this, day per= feetly classed) previous to the inspection of the Judges. The-running match between Messrs SALTEN and BeAur.,totNiT, took place on Saturday morning„ on Hamptop - Common.• The competitors were to run three' measured miles on. turf, and the above -spot .was fixed on by one of the umpires, who caused flag posts to be fixed as a bound'ary. SALTER was the favourite, and he led his oppoiignt for the fi rs t w mile, at which distance - he as twenty-five yards a-head : he slackened his pace, and BEAUMONT came-up with him ; they kept together at an easy pace, until within half a mile of- the winning -post, when BEAUMONT made play, and, to all appearance, had the best of the match ; but, when within three hundredyardi of the decisive spot, SALTEa passed his adversary xvith ease, and arrived twenty yards a-head. Toe match was for Ino guineas. On Wednesday evening, as Mrs. BATEMAN . , a' Lady of Pimlico, and her (laughter, i 3 years of age, were going up the River, with intent to land at Yank,. hall-stairs, the waterman, who was intoxicated, ran foul of n piece of timber opposite Miiimnk, and up set the boat; fortunately, the, spot where they sunk was not more than four feet deep, as the tide was running out, and-the Ladies were enabled to keep their,laeads above Water until several watermen and others got tb their assistance. They were then con veyed to a publiz- . house above Milibank. _ . . . . Saturday a fire broke out at the Holland Coffee house, near Somerset-phic:, in consequence of the chimney which communicates with the coffee-room being oVerheated, and setting fire to the rafters of the floors .above. Much alarm was excited, but the timely arrival - of the engines nearly confined 'the da niage to part of the roof of the house. SMITHFIELD MARKET, Oct. ,13. ,This day's market afforded a considerable-supply of prime Beasts, and the show of Cattle in other re spe&s was tolerably .good; Beer. and.
