PHILADELPHIA,
SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 15.
FROM THE (LONDON) ORACLE.
GENERAL SUWARROW,
Who was by this time assumed the chief command of the allied army in Italy, is one of the most singular military characters of this or any other age.
The qualities which distinguish this extraordinary man as highly consistent with the most elevated genius, and the superiority and energy of talents in that species of warfare in which he has been generally engaged.
Suwarrows was then under the command of Prince Potemkin, who arrived before Ilymael, and who, thought the place was very strongly fortified, and defended by a very numerous garrison, knew the character of his commander so well, that, pointing to the place, all the orders he gave him were "Allez pendre cette ville!"
Suwarrows, without hesitation, assembled his division. "You see (said he) that large town, and I now give it to you, with every thing that it contains—but we must first take it!"
There was, however, a very singular exception to this slaughter. Several hundred persons had taken refuge in a Mosque, where the conquerors were entering, when a Turkish Priest implored their clemency.
That war being concluded, Suwarrows had a respite until the final partition of Poland called him again into action.
Kosciusko, entrenched under the walls of Warsaw, not only baffled the efforts of the king of Prussia, but forced him to fly with his 60,000 chosen troops.
It is well known that Suwarrows was desirous of following up those successes by vigorous operations against France, and compelled the king of Prussia to re-enter into the General Confederacy.
At all events, the first action between the Russians and the French, is likely to be decisive of the fate of Italy.
With grim delight the hordes of ocean view. "A brighter day and skies of azure blue; Scent the sweet fragrance of the opening rose; And quaff the pendant vintage as it grows."
At the age of 65, of a body very thin, and a constitution, in appearance, very feeble, Suwarrows nevertheless is full of strength and activity, insensible to the inclemency of seasons, the variety of climates, and the fatigues of the rude occupation of war.
all their physical advantages, he is indebted to his strict mode of living, and the extreme simplicity of his manners.
Catherine II appointed him to the command of the 60,000 men which she was sending to the support of the Emperor upon the Rhine, when the project was defeated by the death of the Princess.
Convinced of the truth of that celebrated maxim—"Principles pro victoria pugnant comites pro Principe."
Some superficial people having remarked in Suwarrows, a certain originality of character, a singularity of manners, much simplicity in the form of discourse, a great respect for religion, and for old opinions, customs, and usages,
Catherine II weary of seeing the prolongation of the late war in Poland, ordered Marshall Suwarrows to enter that country at the head of 15,000 Russians, stationed on the Dniester.
raverse a space of more than four hundred English miles in ten days, arrived under the walls of Warsaw, quickly reconnoitred the positions of the enemy, instantly formed his plan of attack, distributed his orders, and in a few moments the fate of Warsaw was decided, the war terminated, &c. &c.
To this instance we might add, that of his having, with a handful of men, beaten and entirely routed the numerous army commanded by Prince Oginsky,
The Court De Suwarrows passes for a superstitious man;—tho', because he possesses much piety, and because he avails himself of all these events, to which the vulgar attach some preternatural idea, in order to excite confidence in the soldiers.
From a late London paper.

WILLIAM COBBETT.
HAS JUST PUBLISHED (PRICE 1 DOL. 50 CENTS) THE BAVIAD AND MAEVIAD.
By WILLIAM GIFFORD, Esquire. To which is prefixed, A POETICAL EPISTLE TO THE AUTHOR.
By an American Gentleman. [In introducing this celebrated work to the Gentlemen and Ladies of America, I have endeavored to give it a dress proportioned to its distinguished merit, and to the taste of those for whom amusement and delight it is intended. No expense has been spared in the publication, and I flatter myself that the work does not yield, either in paper, or print, to any one ever published in America.]
This edition has an advantage over some former ones, as it contains by way of notes, the minor productions of the author; and it is an advantage over every other edition, in the Political Epistle, which is prefixed to it, and which must be extremely gratifying to every lover of literature in this country, as it is a proof that there are Americans who have the taste to admire, the justice to applaud, and the talents to rival the Geniuses of other nations.
Some Copies have been sent on to Mr. Samuels, Maiden-Lane, New-York, also to Mr. Hill, Baltimore, and to Mr. Young, Charleston. Copies will be sent to Boston and other places, as soon as occasion offers.]
