HUGH DAVIDSON. February 27, 1807.

SALEM, March 7.
Yesterday arrived at Marblehead, the schooner Perseverance , Messers. in 19 days from Bordeaux. He has brought papers down to Jan. 21, from which we make a few extracts, which our readers will see under their proper heads. The French have at length measured swords with the Russians and gained a victory.
Capt. Messers confirms the account of a dreadful malady having appeared in the French armies, and of its having been very destructive. He reports also, that the Emperor had returned to Paris before he sailed.
45TH BULLETIN OF THE GRAND ARMY. PULTUSK, Dec. 30, 1806.
The battle of Czarnow, that of Nasielsk, that of Kursomb, the affair of cavalry at Lopaczyn have been followed by the battles of Golymin and Pultusk—and the entire and precipitate retreat of the Russian armies has terminated both the year and the campaign.
BATTLE OF PULTUSK.
Marshal Lannes could not arrive opposite Pultusk before the morning of the 26th. All the corps of Bennigsen were concentrated in the night. The Russian division which had been beat at Nasielsk, and pursued by the 3d division, commanded by Marshal Davoust, entered the camp of Pultusk two hours after midnight. At ten o'clock Marshal Lannes attacked, having Suchet's division in the first line, that of Grouchy in the second, and that of Gudin in the third division of the army commanded by General Darrande, upon his left.
The combat was spirited. After a few struggles, the enemy was overpowered. The 17th regiment of light infantry, and the 34th covered themselves with glory. General Vedel and Claparede were wounded. Generals Treillard, commanding the light cavalry of the army, General Boussard, commanding a brigade of the division of the dragoons of Beke, Col. Barthelemy of the 15th regiment of dragoons, were wounded by grape shot. Voisin, aid to Marshal Lannes, and Cural, aid to Gen. Souche both fell with glory.
Marshal Lannes was slightly touched with a ball. The 5th corps of the army here exhibited what brave men are able to perform, and the immense superiority of the French infantry over that of other nations. Marshal Lannes, although he had been for ten days sick, would follow his corps. The 85th regiment sustained many charges of the enemy's cavalry, with coolness and success. The enemy, the same night, sounded a retreat and retired to Ostrodenka.
BATTLE OF GOLYMIN.
While the corps of Bennigsen was at Pultusk and beaten there, that of Buxhoden joined Golymin at night. The division Panin of this corps, which was attacked the evening before by the Grand Duke of Berg, another division, which had been beaten at Nasielsk, arrived by different routes at the camp of Golymin.
Marshal Davoust, who pursued the enemy from Nasielsk, came up with, charged them and chased them from a wood near the camp of Golymin.
At the same time Marshal Augereau, arrived at Golaczyna, took the enemy in flank. The gen. of brigade, Lapine, with the 15th light infantry, carried at the point of the bayonet a village which served as a point of support to the enemy. The division of Huculans displayed and marched for it. Three hours after noon the fire was the hottest. The Grand Duke of Berg executed with the greatest success many charges, in which Kleir's division of dragoons distinguished themselves. Notwithstanding evening came on too soon; the combat continued till 11 at night. The enemy retreated in disorder, leaving their artillery and baggage, and many dead. All the enemy's columns retired to Ostrokerka.
General Fénerolle, commanding a brigade of dragoons, was killed. The intrepid Gen. Rapp, the emperor's aid-de-camp, was wounded at the head of a division of dragoons. Col. Simite, of brave 24th of the line, was wounded. Marshal Augereau had a horse killed under him.
Nevertheless, marshal Soult, with his corps, had already arrived at Moladecina, two leagues from Makow; by the badness of the roads, from the rains and thaws, retarded his march, and saved the Russian army, of which, without this accident, not a man would have escaped. The good fortune of the army of Bennigsen, and that of Buxhoden should have terminated on the other side of the Orecy; but all the intended movements were defeated by the thaws, which caused the artillery to be two days
in marching three leagues.
Altogether, the Russians have lost 80 pieces of cannon, all their waggons, more than 1200 baggage carriages, 12000 men killed, wounded or made prisoners. The movements of the French and Russian columns will be an object of curiosity for military men when they are traced upon the map. They will then see upon how slender a thread hung the capture or annihilation of this army, and all the effect of a single fault committed by the Russian general.
We have lost 800 men killed, and have had 3000 wounded.
At length, finding himself master of the enemy's artillery, and all their positions, having driven them more than 40 leagues, the Emperor has ordered his army into winter quarters.
Before this expedition, the Russian officers declared that they had 150,000 men. Now they do not pretend to reckon half that number. Shall we believe their report before the battle or after it?
In addition to the intelligence, received in the papers, we learn, by Capt. Masservey, (arrived at Salem) that Bonaparte arrived in Paris, about the 20th Jan. that he was collecting more troops, and putting into requisition as many as he could find; that 14000 men were required from Bordeaux, to join the grand army in Poland: That there had been several recent actions with the Russians; and that in the last battle, when each army consisted of 140,000 men, the Russians gained the advantage.

LONDON, January 18.
A considerable insurrection, if that epithet can be properly applied to an effort to shake off French tyranny, has broken out in the Hessian territory. The inhabitants of that country, driven to desperation by the exactions and vexations to which they have been subjected since the French took possession of it, have come to a resolution worthy of more success than, we fear, will attend their present attempt. About ten thousand men, consisting principally of disbanded soldiers and some peasants, assembled lately near Eschwege, and having nominated an officer of the regiment of De Wurm, capt. D'Uslar, their commander, with the rank of Col. proceeded to organize themselves as a regular force. Those among them who had served as non-commissioned officers, were appointed officers; and they armed themselves in the best manner they could, seizing all the arms, swords, &c. which they could find. A colonel Schmidt, who had entered into the French service, and was at Eschwege for the purpose of forming a regiment out of the disbanded Hessian troops, was seized by the insurgents, and compelled to swear on a Hessian standard, that he would renounce the service of Bonaparte. The insurrection it is supposed, was not confined to the Hessian territory, but to have extended itself to Saxony and Hanover also.
Both the provinces of Mecklenburg, hitherto flourishing, are now literally a wilderness and a desert! Not a grain of seed corn has been put into the ground!
A gentleman who lately left Rome, declares, that the reduction of Naples has cost France 25,000 men. Vast numbers of them have perished from the unwholesome vapours of the Calabrias; more, in fact, than have fallen by the swords of the Calabrese. In Naples scarcely a night passes without several Frenchmen being murdered.
King Joseph Bonaparte has not for many months ventured to sleep in the city. He has fitted up and fortified the palace of Capo di Monte, whither he retires every evening.
Lucien Bonaparte lives in the neighborhood of Rome, in a state of domestic but elegant retirement. The large fortune which he amassed during his embassies, to Spain and Portugal, enables him to do much good in this neighborhood. He employs a great number of persons in making various improvements, which he and his wife daily inspect. He avoids all political society, and is very generally respected.
From the Baltimore Federal Gazette of the 6th inst.
Some speculating rumours having been spread, since our publication of yesterday, tending to lull Merchants and others into a fatal security, by contradicting the statement in the Gazette of a treaty having been received at Washington; we deemed it improper again to wait on the gentleman to whose friendship and politeness we are indebted for the information. It was not to be supposed, no person dare to insinuate, that the honorable se-
nators to whom we alluded, could descend to misinform us, and thereby mislead the Merchants.
How far these measures may affect mercantile operations, mercantile men can themselves calculate; we owe it to them, as a high duty, (the performance of which is always pleasing to ourselves) and of the first consideration, to place within their reach the earliest possible information relative to their own interests, of events which may involve, with theirs, the first interests of our country. We accordingly waited on both of the senators, (the hon. S. White, and hon. J. A. Bayard) at their lodgings this morning; when with that politeness and ingenuousness, which characterize the true gentleman, they freely imparted all the information relative to the subject of our pursuit, which had been communicated by Mr. Jefferson.
The first mentioned gentleman, whose meaning was (in an immaterial point) misunderstood by us yesterday, gave me the following:
"He did not mean to express any opinion of his own, in relation to the treaty, as he had no knowledge of its contents, or whether its "conditions" were "hard" or otherwise, except such as had been communicated to him with many others, the day before, by Dr. Mitchell of the senate, and other gentlemen, who had received their information personally from Mr. Jefferson with permission to mention it generally, and which was substantially as follows:—That the treaty would not render a call of the senate necessary, during the recess, as he (the President) had determined to send it back to England, without submitting it to the senate. The chief reasons he assigned, were, 1st. That it contained no stipulation on the subject of the impressment of seamen, and 2dly, That annexed to, or accompanying it, was a note which went to declare, that if the government of the United States ratified the treaty, it was understood they were to unite with England in resisting the decree of the French Emperor, relative to neutral commerce, or that notwithstanding the treaty, his majesty was at liberty to pursue such measures of retaliation on that subject, as he should deem fit and proper."
From the information now before the reader, it is confidently hoped that the reports in circulation this morning will not be credited. Some busy bodies, fond of contradiction and of anarchy, have said that "no treaty has been yet received by our government." Although peculiarly attached to peace and harmony, in all our various pursuits, and ever disposed to avoid seeming harshness of language, yet it becomes an indispensable duty to declare, that the above assertion is untrue. However, cavillers may quibble, or interested men may misrepresent, still the undeniable fact is, that Mr. Erskine did show to Mr. Jefferson a copy of the proffered treaty. And it is true, that our statement, in every material point, will be found correct.
We may add here, that the copy in possession of the British minister at Washington, is not the treaty itself, which should have been in the hands of our own government.
We have been favoured with the following remarks upon the British treaty lately signed in London, and believe that the view which the writer, takes of the subject is correct.
[U. S. Gaz.]
The treaty will not be laid before the senate, unless satisfactory explanations should be received by government respecting the point of impressment of seamen out of American ships, which is not mentioned in any of the articles of the copy of the treaty, received by Erskine, but, concerning which there may be some understanding between the respective commissioners.
Another objection has arisen from a note that was presented by the British to our commissioners, previously to the signing of the treaty, containing a declaration that the king of Great Britain could not enter into the stipulations of the treaty, without an explanation from the United States of their intentions with regard to the decree of Bonaparte of the 21st November, which it is stated, violates all the rights of neutrals to the direct injury of the British interest.
The note states that the king of Great Britain, being animated by a sincere desire to maintain a good understanding with this country, permits his commissioners to sign the treaty, but reserves to himself the right of refusing to ratify it; should the enemy not abandon, in the mean time, his unjust pretensions, or should the United States submit to the violent aggressions, on its neutral rights,
It is very evident that at the time this note was delivered, no explanation of the meaning of Bonaparte's decree, had been received in London.
If the explanation already received be deemed a full and satisfactory security to our neutral rights, or if any modification should be made of this decree to put our commerce upon safe grounds, there will be an end to this difficulty at once.
The completion of the treaty then will rest upon a single point, the relinquishing the right of impressing British seamen, out of American ships; a right which no reasonable man ever supposed Great Britain would relinquish, a right which she has exercised towards every neutral nation, even her oldest and best allies; a right in fine, so intimately interwoven with her safety, that it cannot be abandoned, without absolutely endangering her political existence, and with hers, perhaps ours.
If it be true, as we have heard and believe, that by the new treaty we are permitted to bring French produce from French colonies hither, and from hence to carry it to any port in Europe; if our trade to the British territories in the East Indies be allowed; and if it be stipulated that our ships shall not be searched within five miles of our shores, will it be wise to place in competition with these important benefits the right of impressing her own seamen, which England never has, never will, and never ought to relinquish:
Foreign.—By late arrivals at New York, London dates to the 22d January are received. Tho' reports were current in London, that a general battle had been fought between the armies of Russia and France, on the banks of the Vistula, yet at the date of the latest advices, they had not traced to any correct source. A great number of skirmishes are positively stated to have taken place, which are said to have terminated with various success; but generally in favor of the Russians. The head quarters of the French, were at Warsaw, 41 or 42 miles distant from Posen. The number of the French army sick and carried off by disease, was estimated at 40,000. The emperor Napoleon, it is said, was seriously indisposed, and that the recovery of Murat was despaired of. That the queen of Prussia, died on the 17th December last, of a nervous fever. That the emperor Napoleon, has sold to the king of Holland, the cities of Hamburg, Lubeck and Bremen, on condition of his receiving a certain annual tribute. That Saxony and Prussia, were on the eve of famine. That the Russian forces were marching, unmolested, through the Turkish provinces in Europe—that Widdin, Bender, Cochzin and Jassy, had been voluntarily surrendered by their respective garrisons, and that the Grand Signior had consented to receive a Russian garrison at Constantinople. That Austria had declared against France, and that the arch duke Charles was about to set out for Galicia to take upon him the command of a considerable army. The passage of French troops through Frankfort, to join the army in Poland, was announced; and a new levy of 80,000 had been ordered in Holland. The Russians are said to have the following enormous force in the field—troops of the line, three corps, consisting of 75,000 men each,—150,000 troops of reserve, also regulars—100,000 Cossacks, Baskirs, Calmucks and Kirase—200,000, new levy, completed January 1st, 1807—and 400,000, a levy, in a mass, on the frontiers, for the protection of the empire, constituting a total of 1,075,000. The British prints declare this statement to be taken from official documents, and add, that a new levy was to be ready on the first of this month, which would produce 150,000 men more! The London papers mention, that subsidiary treaties have just been entered into by their government with Russia, Sweden and Prussia, in which they have engaged to furnish these powers with FIVE MILLIONS of pounds sterling to enable them to keep the field against the common enemy; and that orders had been issued by government to remit immediately, 500,000l. to the continent, as the balance of their former subsidy. The treaty agreed upon by our ministers and those of England, seems to excite a great deal of attention in London; their journalists appear to be as ignorant of the provisions of this important instrument, as those of America, tho' the hostility of the one is not exceeded by that of the other. In the house of commons Jan. 20, in a discussion relative to neutrals, sir F. T. Marton said, that "he firmly believed the existence of an artful and insidious understanding between France and America!" Lord Howick replied that "the treaty between G. Britain and

America, would not prevent G. B. from distressing the commerce of the enemy carried on in neutral vessels." In answer to another member, he said, that "there certainly was in this treaty, a full reservation to his majesty of the right to exercise restrictions equivalent to those which neutral nations may submit to allow the enemy to exercise by their means against the commerce of his majesty's subjects."—Mr. Munroe was to have left London for the United States, in January.

BOSTON, March 14.
Very late from Europe.
The arrival of the ship Packet, Scott, in a short passage of 26 days from Liverpool, has given us full files of London papers as late as the 12th February.
French Bulletins to No. 52, inclusive, are received.—It will be seen by the sketches we have given of them, that the last is dated Warsaw, and that the H. Q. had retrograded. Excepting the capitulation of Breslau, &c. in Silesia, no military event of note had occurred, posterior to the battle of Pultusk.
A Russian official account, and an abstract of other official particulars of the battle of Pultusk, &c. are also given.—It will be seen, that the Russians, tho' forced eventually to retreat, lay claim to a partial victory. They retired in good order and the French acknowledge they did not think it prudent to follow them.—The battle was hard fought, and the ground dearly purchased.—The Russians say, Bonaparte commanded in person; and we know that one of his aids (Rapp) was wounded; and another (Segur) taken prisoner, and sent to Russia. At the last date, the Russian army under general Kamenskoy, was concentrated near Wizna, &c. and were speedy to assume offensive operations. The Russians had retired eleven miles from Pultusk previous to the battle of the 26th.
The emperor Napoleon had not (as reported by the Marblehead arrival) quitted his army. The empress Josephine had arrived at Paris.
FRENCH GRAND ARMY Bulletins.

It mentions, that the troops found several Russians sick at Ostrolenka; and that the illness in the Russian camp increased daily: And that the garrison of Breslau (3500 men) had defied before prince Jerome. A detailed account is given of the affair between the Prussian corps, and that of the Wurttembergers and Bavarians, mentioned in the 49th bulletin:—The rest of the bulletin relates to the progress of the Russians in Turkey; the preparations making in Turkey to resist the "aggressions" of the Russians;—and that Austria and France are equally interested as well as England) in not seeing Moldavia, Wallachia, Servia, Greece, Romania and Natalia, become the sport of the Moscovites."
BULLETIN, No. 51, IS DATED
Warsaw, Jan. 14, 1807.
It notices the official dispatches of general Benningen to the king of Prussia; which it says was received with great joy; but was turned into grief; and the consequence of the latter was the determination to evacuate Konigsburg:—That all the Prussian forces then did not exceed thirty two thousand; some of which were with the king, others in various garrisons in Prussia and Silesia.—On the Russian official account, it states, that Buzhovden was not at Makow, (Benningen did not say he was) but at Golymin, where he was beaten:—It defies Benningen to shew a single piece of French cannon taken, a single standard, or more than 12 or 15 stragglers taken; while the French can shew 6000 prisoners, two standards, which he left at Pultusk, and 3000 wounded, whom he abandoned in his flight. The bulletin admits the French took care not to pursue him; denies that the Duke of Berg or Davoust was opposed to him; concludes with a number of remarks on the effect of such ridiculous relations.

And gives an account of the operations of marshal Mortier in Prussia Proper; and of an affair between a detachment from the Prussian garrison in Colburg, and a small corps of Mortier's army; in which the latter took four pieces of cannon and 100 prisoners.—It adds that Brieg, in Silesia, had surrendered; that Poland, rich in grain and provisions, affords a plentiful supply; that Warsaw supplies 100,000 rations daily, that no diseases existed in the army; that no severe frosts had been experienced; and that the emperor was daily upon parade reviewing his troops, and particularly the conscripts from France.
