at% bread,Aloor, and oats. In many villages
MI the hay is already consumed. The large armies
are advancing, without magazines, into Suabia and
Bavaria ; and if great importations do n:)t arrive, a
famine may be apprehended in those otherwise so
fertile and favoured circles ; for the old stocks of
corn were entirely exhausted last summ..r, by the ex-
pottations to Austria; and rich convents, which for-
merly possessed almost inexhaustible stores, have
scarcely any thing lett. .is it appears that Switzer-
land will remain neutral, the roads are covered with
tired', on their way to that country.
si SDe.I.IICII4, OCT. 5.
This week, five regiments, which were hitherto
stationed in Northern Tyrol, marched into Suabia,
and joined the army of the Archduke Ferdinand.
The latter is still posted behind the Iller, and its van
extends from Ulm, along the south bank of the
Danube, to the Black Forest.
The Archduke Ferdinand is a young man of 22,
of a noble figure, of polished manners, but manly
deportment. He is much beloved by the soldiery.
For these eight days, the Quarter-Master-General,
Baron Von Mack, has been visiting the whole posi-
tion of the army. All its movements are effused
with such secrecy, that, the chief Officers of regi-
ments generally receive waled orders, which they
are not to open till they arrive at certain places.
The troops mostly march in the night.
SVASIA, OCT. 7.
The two foreign Ambassadors at Stutgard were
treated, while under arrest, with all possible resped.
They expressed a wish to depart for Augsburg,
and were promised passports and an escort.
The French Army is now marching by roads in
Suable. which, even in the late war, were never
passed in columns. The General of Division, Ou-
dinot. ascended the famous Hi. near Geisslingen,
with the grenadier corps, the Wirremberg Jagers
serving as prides. On the right wing, a corps is
pushing forward through 'sViesensteig. Blaubeuren,
Klengenstein, and Schelklingen. Ihe two armies,
th-refore, in that paint, are separated only by the
Danube.

At this place. 9000 soldiers, and 9000 peasants, are
•t writ k day and night at the fortifications. It was
at first intended ro repair the old fortifications, blown
up by the command of General Moreau, at the con-
clusion of the late war, and which, since that time,
have been half-levelled ; btt AS the ex..eut:or. of
that plan would require ton much time, the eiai-
nences situated to the west of the town. are merely
provided witl; forts and edrthts. F.very night
several regiments repair to these eminences, where
they remain under arms.
At Weisstithorn, twelve miles east of Ulm, a large
encampment of Imperial trooos is forming, which is
already said to consist of 40,00') man. It therefore
appears that the Austrians are resolved to take
strong position in the neighbourhood of that town.
They are construaing a magazine at Sail iu, in
the principality of Scheer, behind the Upper Danube.
The Austrians are likewise fortifying Ingolstatit.

Marshal Bernadotte will probably have yester-
elay joined the Bavarians in the vicinity of Weis.
senbiirgh, or in Eichstadt. This combined army,
composed of at least 60,000 men, seems to be push-
ing forward towards the Danube, above Ratisbon,
as if to esr.•A a junaion with the corps advancing
under General Davoust, who has been joined by Ge-
r-eral !farmont, with his Gallo•Batavians, in order
to menace the right flank of the Austrian army, sta-
tioned in Sushia, and to surround the position which
they are endeavouring to render important by the
fortification of Ulm, Memmingen, and other points.
These forced marches of the Galh-Bavarian army
are occasioned by the pian of eitc•itiog something
decisive before the kmian .17my call arrive on the
theatre of war, which will he in a very few days.
"(Isis army will, probably, niret use Austrian corps
commanded by General KiensmAyer, on the fron-
tiers of Fachstadt, ar.d the Uppt:r Palatinate.

Ihe fortress of Wuttahurgh is supplied with pro-
