took place on the 7th inst at force
distance from Malagofzee, between
Gen. Kosciuscoj and the tom*
bined Ruffian and Pruflian troops.
Gen* Kosciusko’s account runs
thus: “ That notwithstanding the
enemy’s superiority in regular
troops, by the junction of the Pruf
funs and their heavy artillery, the
Polilh commander was on the
point of dbtaining a complete vic
tory. The enemy had already be
gan to give way, after having loft
5 cannon, when a ball took off the
Palish Gen. Grochowiski. This
occasioned force disorder, which
was increased by a general report
-prevailing throughout the army,
that it was Gen. Kosciusko, who
Was killed j and that General, to
undeceive his troops, exposed him
felf to the greatest danger. The
cnemv in the enterim, failed not
.to profit by this accident, and ralli
ed. Gen Kosciusko perceiving
that one of his battailions of in
fantry, was unable to refill the
shock of the enemy*s cavalry, and
that on the other hand the corps
of pikemen did not kerb inclined
to do their duty, would nut rifle a
decisive a6lio m He retired to i
Malagofzee, carrying with him his
dead and wounded, but left two
cannon in the hands of the enemy.
The loss of the Poles, is about 660
men ; that of the enemy must be
far more considerable. Some ac
counts state the loss of the Prussians
at 500 killed and wounded, and
that of the Ruffians at 400
We are tn anxious expectation of
further accounts.

A RHAPSODY.
BY PETER PINDAR, ESsj
Warsaw, June ii.
POLAND.
Poet’s Corner.
Our (ofles on the iff of June
are attributed to the mifconduft of
M. de Solano, who commanded
one of the divisions of our troops,
and the cowardice of our milifia,
who were panicftruck by the firft
fight of the French,
Our Generals affirm,- that Col- ’
lioure would not have been loft,
if our gun-boats had had the cour
age co come near enough to im
pede the operations of the brfieg
ers, arid if Admiral Gravjna’s »
squadron had not been thirty-fix •
hours too late.
b&twithftanding these disasters,
our troops, we are told, have not ♦
loft their confidence in M. de la
Union. We are even allured,
that he has taken two batteries e
reded by the French before feel
iegarde, and that he has opened
the communication between Belie
garde and the army. We dread,
however, that the French, in their
usual manner, will soon return to
the charge with great reinforce
ments, that we shall not be able
toeheck .tfi^fr ptpgr^fs, and that
they will enter Catalonia, the pair |
es to which ate difficult, but weak- !
ly guarded. r
To add to this, the French have 1
penetrated into Navarre, with) >4, 8
000 men, and taken poflbflio 1 of I
a post which we thought imp eg- |
nable. /The Court endeavour to I
conceal ,this; know, ^t |
the French have made a roac for |
their artillery ever the mount ins, 4
Letters from Berlin, of the i?th
instant, announce as certain, that
the Porte, has assured Ruflia and
Prussia, that (he will in no manner
interfere in the affairs of Poland.
Equality is gdt to a fine pass in
France.—An Engliffi officer, a
prifoneron board the Sans Pareille,
dined with the Captain one day,
and while at dinner, the Boatswain
came in, and, without any ceremo
nv,cut off two large Dices of meat,
one for himfelf, and the other for
his mate; After drawing his knife
through his mouthy he attacked
the Captain’s bread,and took what
he pleased. The Enghffi officer,
furprized at such proceeding, was
answered by the French Captain—
it was become the faffiion
Gen. Kosciusko, is endeavour
ing to dear himfelf from the charge
Os coalescing with the French Jaco
bins, and in a proclamation he has
publiffied condemns their' princi
ples in the strongest terms, and
declares he has.no cither intention
than that of re-eftablifhiog the
