reinforcements 'previodi to The Fourteen thou-
sand Saxons, ten thousand Bnvyians, five thousand Wirten-
burghers; and 42000,P01es had joined the French, and Gene-
ral BARCLAY DE TOLLY with 80,000, and KLEIST With
18,000 men; the Allies. • On• the 'l9th an action occurred
with a detached corps of 9,000 French, sent to turn the right
of the Prussians, and 13-YoTtsc's division,. in which the
enemy was defeated, with the
.loss of 10 pieces of cannon, and
1500 prisoners BUONAPARTE acknowledges only 2 pieces
of cannon, 3 waggons, and 600 prisoners. On the 20th
the French crossed the spree and attacked the first position
of the Allies at Bautzen, which they carried as well as
••the town, after six hours hard fighting. On the 21st he
,stormed their second position at Wurtchen, whilst NEY and.
LAURISTON endeavoured to .turn its right, in which they
succeeded towards the evening, when the Allies retired to
'Weissenburg, and from thence took the road to Gorlitz. The
2?d, the French, • Saxon, and Polish, cavalry amounting to
•• 16,000 men was far the first time engaged, and the Allies fell
back to Buntzlau. The enemy expected to enter Silesia the fol-
•lowing day. lie estimates his loss at 12,000 men, and that of
the Allies, at 28,0c0. As he was the assailant, there is no
doubt but he must have had at least 50,000 killed and
wounded. Atnong. the former was Marshal Dunne, N'APO-
LEOWS bosom friend, and the depository -of all his secrets.

fie visited him on his death-bed, and if all the grief he ex-
pressed be real, hopes might be entertained, that having
lately twice experienced the 'pangs of 'friendship severed by
death, he would, out of pity for the millions of beings on
whom his wars have inflicted similar pain, at last rein in
his ambition, and restore a secure peace to the desolated
world. The account •of the Allies tallies pretty closely
with the French.. From the determined courage with which
they disputed every inch of ground, and the reinforcements
which arc said to be on their march to join them, we feel in-
creased confidence instead of despondency, in the final issue,
of the contest. ilamhurgli, it is true, has fallen, and the Danes
by admitting the French into the place, seem to have openly
embraced the cause of NAPOLEON. But if the doul t,; still
hanging on the sincerity of .the CROWN PRINCE be at last
dispelled by his conduct, now'that he has reached the field
cif actioh, the lost balance of
.Europe may once more be re-
Stored:

The PRINCESS of WA LES appeared in ptibric for the first
time since her triumphant acquittal, on Saturday se'nnight
at the opera. The Timrs describes her every look, and ges-
ture as fraught with dignity, feeling, and delicacy; while
the Aforni»a TieraM does not scruple to impute her behavi-
our to the mere trickery of stage effect, and to assert, that
" she performed her part" very well. This publication is
always looked upon as the special organ of Carlton House.—
The accusation, therefore, against the PRINCESS, of playing
a part, appears to comp froth the friends of a very great per.
sonage. But. surely those who dictated this paragraph were
any thing, rather than his friends. Peevishness is
.always
little, still more is it so when evinced in a quarter where
men naturally look for the great passions on which hang the
fates of empires, not the paltry motives which agitate the
L iliputian politics of my lady's boudoir. In the present in-
stance, the voice of the people has so decidedly pronounced
in favour Of the PRINCE'S, that all the real. friends of the
PRINCE, ought to preserve the most profound silence," and
not keep alive the public feeling by irritation, which is any
thing "but wisdom, and cannot pass even for injudicious zeal.
