THE NATIONAL REGISTER..

utmost consternation prevailed : on the approach of 30,000
French, he evacuated that city, and retired towards the Elbe;
on his way back, it is said, he was defeated, but no particulars
are given. The Swedes are stated to have quitted the left
of the Elbe ; and on the side of Italy, Beauharuois is re-
ported to have obtained some trilling advantages. Maria
Louisa has signed a decree relative to the island of Gonda-
loupe, by which it is de.clared that no treaty of peace be•
tween France and Sweden dull be signed until the latter
shall have reuounced possession of that island ; and it is
CA bidden to every Frenchman in the said island, under
pain of dishonour, to take any oath to the Swedish Govern-
ment, to accept any office under it, or to of it any as-
sistance. The French Papers are completely silent on the
subject of Lord Wellington's entrance into France.
Further Paris Papers to the 18th were received on Thurs-
day. They make no mention whatever of Buonaparte; nor
do they contain any thing corroborative of the statement flow
Gotteoburgh, or Bavatia having agreed to make common
cause with the Allies. It is, indeed, admitted, that Brixen is
occupied by Austrian light troops, and " retactoty con-
scripts," (pi obably some of the Tyrolese pats iotsj but nothTug
to warrant the belief of a change of politics at the Cout t of
Munich, Several paragraphs in these papers relate to the
transfer of the war from the left to the tight bank of the
Elbe ; and these are of a nature which pretty strongly !milli
to a still farther retrogradation of the enemy. The fot titica-
firms of Edo!t are trengthenine., a camp is forming at Fried-
berg, and another in the neighhoto hood of Frankfort. The
Austrian corps under Cencoal Count tilenau, is stated to
have been driven f. Zwic kau on the 28th, into Bohemia.
The troops of the Crown Prince of Sweden that had passed
to the left bank of the Elbe, are again said to have been
compelled to re-cross that river, hut the account is too vague
to deserve serious notice.---The most curious part of the con-
tents of these papers is a statement in one of them that let-
ters had been received from Bayonne, nlintioning that the
armies were in presence of each other, and that no ecru/
he'd taken place. Nothing can more clearly prove the alarm
which has seized the French Government in consequence of
the entrance of Lord Wellington into France, than this
studied concealment of the fact. It appeals, however, frota
this statement, that Soult remained in the command of the
army : he had teceived reinforcuments.—T here is a dispatch
front Decacti, commanding the at my of Catalonia, giving an
account of a tuiflittL; atrair near ()lot, in which the Spaniards
are stated to have been repulsed.—The French funds con-
tinue on the decline.

By recent accounts from the Dutch coast, we learn, that
about the beginning of the present month, four Dutch fri-
gates forming pa:' the Texel fleet, received orders to put
to sea. Fl um some unknown cause, however, only two of
them, the Dagerand and the Itygershergen, of 38 guns each,
''actnallv sailed. An embargo of seven days succeeded their
putting to sea, which was so strictly enforced, that even the
fresh fishing-boa s were comreled to remain in port during
its continuance. They proceeded North about, and their
destination wa, supposed to be America.
