This Offensive. movement of.theArrhy was in bread day, 'in face 'of the Euemy, )yho could easily make their obserVatiOns from the I - ft;ghts of Schlapanitz and Kobelnitz. , 712he,p0, s;tion .which the Allies Occupied at the Moment they cannOriaded the Heights between Au-. g.:4, Matzen, end Holubitz, was very strong. The Jenerny," if they had been well attended to, would have had much trouble in opening the way to at toek these 'heights. The, dehles of Tellnitz, Sokol- Schlapantz, which separated the two Armies, opposed. many obstacles, while the elevation, of their summits fortned"emsiderable means of defence. Here,' as well in the position before Oimutz, the Army , was upcn a curtain, behind wiatch they might have placed large masses, to ael upon the of feniive.' Its left was secured by the Lakes of An. Best and Menitz ; and 'its right was refused. But they never thought of deriving an advantage from th'is position, nor of the possibility of being attacked upon these heights, or of finding the Enemy on that side of the defile, while the Emperor of the French, like a master, availed himself of the numerous faults committed. He retained his whole force colleted iu a mass, to be ready for any event. " Marshal BERNADOTTE, who had joined the Em peror on the same day the Allies presented themselves to his view on the heights of Pratzen, was immedi ately placed to the left of the high road. During the night the Emperor NAPOLEON ordered him to leave this position, and place himself behind,the village of (;irschiliowitz, which was strongly occupied. This corps el the army, composed of the divisions of Ith vALTD and DROUET, formed the centre of the French .Irmy. Prince MURAT'S cavalry was in the rear of BERNADOTTE'S corps to the left. Marshal LANNES formed the left wing with the divisions of SUCHET and CAFARELLI ; the latter extended to Prince MU, EAT'S left ; the right, under Marshal Sourer, was placed between Kobeinitz and Soholnitz, tbrmino the extremity of this wing, and occupied those vil lages with large detachments of iulantry. Gener,al VANDAmmr.'s division was to the left, and the divi sion of ST. HILAIRE in Marshal SOULT'S centre.

PRICE OF .6 - rocKs TIIIS DAY AT TWELVE O'CLOCK. - 65 I Oinniuni 11 WE received this morning New York Papers to the 14th- We are sorry to find that every effort is used to inflSme the public mind in America against this Country : We have extraCted an article respe&ing the behaviour of an Officer of the Cam brian to the Crew of an American Ship, not because we give the slightest credit to the statement, but as a specimen of the intemperate and indecent language which disgraces the American Papers. The intelli gence respeCting General MutANDA's Expedition is not of so late a date as that which we have already received from the West Indies. Tins morning we received some French Papers, but not of a litter date than those which arrived on Two Gottenburgh Mails arrived this morning. The following ;s the only.drtiele of intelligence they " GOTTENBURGH, JULY 28.—Yesterday arrived a ,litassian Courier in nine days from St. Petersburg!), v.rith, Dispatches for the Russian Minister in London, for the English Government.: be will take his oasssge in the i l 4:: . l ,cet that sails to-day. The Russian Army, it app ears, 2.1-e all in cantonm2ntz, rec.':, - to be fbrtli at an hours warning. - A Lirge body. of Troops is upon the PoliF.ll frontier." 'WE expressed, on Saturday last, our hopes that the French Frigates which chaced the Loire, on the _ . toast of Ireland, would share the fate of their con sort, La 'Gaerriere, and tha't hope has, to a' certain extent, been realiied ; for a Telegraphic Dispatch was yesterday received at the Admiralty, from Ply 7 mouth, - stating, th=at the Mars, Captain OLIVER, had cr:-ived there with the French Frigate Le Rhin, of 4,4 guns.- - -Our Readcis will recolle6.l that intelligence was received on Saturday last, that His Majesty's Frigate La Loire had been chaced by three French Frigates off the Southern Coast of Ireland, and that, in the course of the chace, La Loire fell in •, with the Sujierb, Capt. KEATS, and the Mole Fri gate, and that they all joined in pursuit of the Ene my. No account has yet reached Town of the par ticulars of the Capture of Le Rhin, nor is it known whether the other Frigates have made their escape or not. From the number of Vessels, however, that are on the look-out for theirs, we think it very unlikely that they should escape. Yesterday the Signal was made for the Expedi tion at Spithead to get under way, but the .wind coming round to the Westward it was soon after annulled. The Vessels that sailed from the Downs have also been obliged to put back in consequence of the wind changing. THERE have been many reports and speculations respeeling the -separate Treaty concluded between Russia and France, and it has been boldly affirmed that the terms are so very' degrading and injurious to the former, as to excite a belief that the Rus sian Minister at Paris has far exceeded his com mission, and that consequen'tly the terms will not be ratified by his imperial Master. It is impos sible to put limits to-French intrigue, Or tci•calculate the extent of its successes 3 . but though Russia ha s been seduced into a distinct pacification, it would be absurd to suppose that the MiniSter sent to Paris - would have the honour and interest of his Master so much at his command as: to,.consent to any such terms as rumour has imagined. We have before cautioned our Readers against -an implicit faith in these reports, but they begin 'to be so very extrava gant as to render such a, warning unnecessary.'

Since the above was put in type; we have received the Baltimore Telegraph of Friday last, from which we copy the following Note from J. BARNEY, Esq. " The Officer of His Britannic Majesty's Fri (Tate Cambrian, said to be a Lieutenant, who board ed the Brig Kentucky, and pressed four steerage pas sengers, notwithstanding oral proof being adduced that two of them were native born citizens of the United States, and when asked if he would press Americans, insolently replied, " Yes, Ame ricans as soon 23 any other Nation,"— I pro claim to be a contemptible puppy, an imper tinent scoundrel ! and pledge myself to convince him, whenever we meet, that an American Gentle man will invariably revenge the insults of .a British Officer, when in a situation to compel atonement by honourable satisfaElion. " JOHN BARNEY, of Baltimore. N. B. " The four men above mentioned were po litely returned by the Commanding Officer of the Cambrian, without detention." • " June 25, 1806." Captain SMITH, of the Schooner Fox, who ar rived, On Saturday morning in thirteen days from Martinique, informs, that Admiral JEROME BONA PARTE, in an 80 gun Ship, arrived at Port Royal on the 6th inst.

It is stated, that the day after his arrival he left the harbour in pur suit of an English Frigate which had appeared in sight ; but 'on espying a second Frigate near hand, he prudently returned into Port!

", The bubble Of that Adventurer's Expedition is burst, and this Province is in such a state of defence, bOth. by nature aiid by the re-union and organiza tion of its resources, that not less than ten thousand regular troops would be required to make any serious impression. The inhabitants in general have hewn much loyalty and Atachnient to their Government; forty thousand dollars have been subscribed in this Country, and offered as a price for MIRANDA'S head; but . he has escaped by flight, and some of our Coun• trymen are actually under close confinement, . fro which they will only be , released by death. " The, most intelligent among the Prisoners de clare the Expedition received the encouragement of our Administration ; the news we received from the United States appears to confirm this supposition.... If this be so, our Rulers have degraded themselves indeed, and will be answerable before God and their Country for the blood of these imprudent and deluded men, the greatest number of whom will most assured ly- be executed as Pirates.

She has 'a number of port-holes curiously concealed from the eye of a common observer, being vainted equal with the'sides of the Ship. A strong suspicion arose that all was not right, as, on Saturday night, 16 nine pounders were shipped on board, and put into the hold. A Letter from the Superb, Captain KEATS, Com manding off Belleisle, dated on the 28th ult. states, " the three Ships which she fell in with to be of the Line, and not Frigates ; but they had lost sight of them, and it (unluckily it says) , was only 'a bird's eye view they had of them : it was twenty leagues West of Belleisle."
