Some commutirss-ns-urc said to have bro

annexing that country to France was pub- ;
]ishcd. At Zwolr, Dcventer, Zutphen,
Doesberg, and several other places, where
an ovcrwhclm'mg military force was not
present, the orders issued on occasion of
the incorpofation, were resislcd by force,
and several lives were, in consequence, lost
'on both sides. At Zutphcnsi, 12 persons
were appsirehended and imprisoncd, for aid
ing in these proceedings, but the: prison was
forced by the popula-ce during the night,
and the men released.

The vast amotmt of the lnsses sustained
by the French atmics in Spain and Porttt
gal, may be tolerably estitnated by the sol
lowing fact .
A gentleman late!) retmned stom: Paris,
saw the 8th cozps us the Ftench army (one
osthose granted to BIJSSL m to m; tke tip the
70, OOO additional troops required b) that
ehcral previous to his takinzr the command
us what is called by the Punch the army
of—Portugal) pass in review before Dona
parte. '
lt passed in at one gate osthe Thni'de
ries, where Bunaparte w,as and out at the
opposite one. It formed a complete army
ntsi 40,000 men, of which 10,0()O were ca
valry. There were twso divisions of infam
try ul'15,000 each, with all the adjuncts of
a train us artiliery, pnntoons, bread wag
gons, and those various troops ofsapsizers,
artizans, &c. &c. invaridbly attached to the
French armies.
Bunaparte was so minute in his inspec
ticn, that when ?: particular pontoon came
up, drawn only by t'ottr'horses, the rest of
fourteen in all, being drawn by six, with
led horSes to each, he immediately haltcd
the corps, and asked ths: cause of this'desi
ciency. He was told that one horse had
got sinne, and that his companiun had been
taken away with him. " Then," said Bo
naparte, " let the deficiency be supplied
sum the h-d horses ; that is the use of
them." This was accordingiy done, the
march was resnmsid till tle whole paSSed
ui der the: e_1c: of he ( mpttur.
