PARIS, JULY 26.—The Russian Counsellor of
State, D'OomuL, departed for St. Petersburgh a few
hours tiller the' signing of the Treaty of Peace be-
tween France and Russia. It is said that he will
travel night and day, in the-hope of being no more
than a fortnight on his journey ; in which case, the
Ratification of the Emperor of Russia may be exped-
ed within a month: Before be set otT, he hired an
Hotel for the new Russian Ambassador.

" Orders had been dispatched to the interior of
the Empire, to put in motion the several Depbts of
the Empire, and to send them to the Grand Army,
in order to complete all the Regiments ; but instant-
ly on the Peace with Russia, the Emperor wrote a
letter to t!le Minister at War, informing him,
that all the movements of the Troops from the In-
terior to Germany were to be suspended."—Moni-
teur, 25th July.

PARIS, JULY On the 6th inst. General
LAURISTON departed from Ragusa, and General
MOLITOR from Stagno. They placed a Corps of.
Russian Troops and Montenegrins bet...veen two
fires, 'killed great numbers of them, drove them
from the State of Ragusa, and pursued them to the
Mountain of Montenegro, taking a
,quantity of
Ord-
nance and ammunition. _

• " The Montenegrins have committed the most
dreadful barbarities on the poor inhabitantS •of
,Canale and of the Province of Ragusa, during the
time that-the French Troops, shut up in that Citadel,
left Lherifinl'aters of several Provinces. The Rua-.
skins have re-embarked, and sailed for Corfu.
" It is said, but the intelligence is not authentic,
that the inhabitants of the Latih Church have pos-
sessed theniselves of the Fortress Of Cataro, and de-
fended' it against the Greeks and Montenegrins.,
The Latins are very great advocates for 'the'French."

JULY 28.—The Siege of Gaeta commenced on the
7th instant.. The firing continued incessantly to the
, . _
18th. At four o'clock in the afternoon thebreach
in the place and. in. the citadel was prgtiCable, Gaeta
was on. the point of being carried by assaulti: when
the Garrison demanded to capitulate, and surrendered
in sight of an English Squadron of six Men of Ware
The particulars of the siege- shall be conimuni7
cated. The Troops have hewn the greatest a&ivity.
and constancy. During these few days upwards of
800,0001 b. of gunpowder have been fired. The fa-
cility of supplying the garrison by sea has contributed.
to prolong its defence, which lasted. eleven days af-
ter the opning of the trenches.
M. POUBRIL.,- Envoy from the Emperor of
RUSSIA, passed through Nancy on the 24th; on his
way to St. Petersburgh. He was authorised .to li-
berate one of the Russian prisoners at Lnneville,
for the purpose of sending him w4h dispatches to
Italy. •

if/no Imperial HighneSs Prince EUGENE, Viceroy
of Italy, and COmniandec in Chief 'of the French..
Army, in -that kingdom, has sent an account from
Venice, dated the 2 tst JUIY, that a Russian squa-
dron having, in the month of June, diiernbarked a
considerable force at Cataro, to which moon
Montenegrins and Greeks joined themselves, Gene-
ral Lariats ON thought,.that with the 2000 men,
which he had, he could , not make head against
16,900 Enemies, especially as the Turkish Com-
mandant ,of the Fort of Zarina had permitted his
neutrality to- bt- violated. He therefcre judged it
proper to shut himself up in the town of Ik.gusa.—
This place yva speedily invested. General LAU.
ALSTON caused the position of St. Mark to be
occupied, and ere6ed a 'battery of 40 pieces of
cannon on the side towards the sea. He had pro- '
cured provisions for six months,, and ' was abun-
dantly provided with warlike stores, .The Monte,-
negrins spread themselves over .the Ragusa') ter-
ritory, and there committed the most horrible 'ex-
cesses. Nothing could equal the rage which these
Greek Set(L)ries displayed towards the Christians
and the inhabitants of the Republic of RaguSa.
'The women were violated, infants burned, and the
old men beheaded. After twenty days of block-
ade, the Russians and Montenegrins commenc-
ed the siege. . Twenty pieces of cannon were land-
ed, as well as mortars : the cannonade and bom-
bardment lasted seventeen days. The RaguSans gave
rilli
every assistance which circu ances demanded,
with a devotion and a&ivity witho example. They
knew that the Montenegrins would murder them all.
They discovered for the French an attachment ex-
tremely affeding. Their houses were destroyed by
the bombs, Without their zeal being either altered or
diminished.

" In the mean time, General MOLITOR had ad-
vanced to Stagno, with all the torce that was not
necessary for the &fence of Dalmatia ; and; in the

beginning of July hnl colleCted a considerable
nturiber of troops on that point. On the 4th of that

State. On tile: sth lie arriVed over against •the
road ofAlalii, where he discovered the advanced
guard of the Montenegrins, who were immediately
attacked; overthrown, and 'driven into the sea.
The animosity was terrible. Before he found him-
self, on the 6th, in the face of the Enemy's Army,
which ,was intrenched in impregnable positions,
General MoLITor, made the following dispositions
The battalion of Chasseurs of the East, and the 79th
Regiment, formed the Advanced Guard, command-
ed by Colonel ATINAL j General DELZON com-
manded the Line of Battle ; and Colonel BON'TE the
Reserie. In this order General MoLrron marched ,
towards the Canal of Ombla., The' Russians com-
menced a very brisk.hre from their Gun-boats to
interrupt his passage ; but we suffered no loss
from it. The French got round the bay. The left
OF the Russian and Montenegrin Army was flanked
by some Russian Ships of the Line and Frigates, ati'd
had its right defended by the mountains. Behind'
its front, not a mile in extent, mere two positions'
commanding each other, and OccUpied by three
Lines of these Barbarians.

At the moment that the Enemy perceived the
French division, they advanced against it, but they
were defeated, and forced to the Russian Ships. The
village of Bergato was immediately occupied by
'our Troops. The. Russian- camp was then 'disco-
vered on the heights, in -the form of a square bat-
talion ; but tl.e moment they perceived our Troops
. ,
advancing against th.em, they began to ,retreat,
abandoned.. their artillery, and embarked in great
confusion on board their Ships. We took from
them 20 pieces of cannon, six mortars, a number
of carronades, and a great.quantity of ammunition.
At seven in the evening General ,MOLITOR was at
the gates of Ragusa, where nothing could be heard
of the arrival of the French division, so heavy was
the cannonade' by land and sea on the part of the
besiegers, and which was redoubled by them to pre-
vent the inhabitants of the town from hearing any

thing.
‘‘No time was lost in pursuing the barbarous
Montenegrins. They were driven to'the mountains.
The Russians, after sustaining a great loss, and leav-'
in g about sixty prisoners behind them, succeeded in
getting on board their ships.

two kilted and seven wounded.

JULY 30.—The hopes of Peace•with 'England be,
come every day /note general : • it is the only sUbjeCt
of conversation. Many persons suppose that Peace
may be proclaimed .about the 15th of August, and
that the Festival, so dear to the French people;.will
.be celebrated at the same time, with the adiniratian
and gratitude of all Europe.
The Moniteur states, that orders had been *lit'
into the interior of the Empire •to put in motion
the Troops from the- different Dep6ts, and send
them to the Grand Army, in order to• make all the
Regiments complete ; but immediately after the sig-
nature of the Peace with- Russia, the Emperor wrote
a Note to the Minister of War, informing him, that
all the movements of Troops from the Interior to-
wards Germany are to be suspended. The Moniteur
besides states, .that the ntes,to be given at Paris to
the Troops are to be celebrated within the last fifteen
days of September; when the Grand Army will have
arrived. .

the laws of war upon the villages and the inhabit-
ants.—The following is the report pusiished relative

and three hundred Poles made Prisoners. • -,The
English being joined by a reinforcement of three
thousand men, and by three or four thousand
Calabrian Insurgents, advanced into the Country,
and quitted the prote&ion of theii Vessels. Within
one league of Cosenza they were attacked by the
Gerierar'of Division VERDIER; at the head of
10,900 Infantry, and.2ooo Cavalry. The English-
were breken and routed, and at the time the ac-
counts came off, 1800 English, who were made
prisoners, had arrived at HeakQuarters. • General
VERDIER was in pursuit of the remainder. 'lt was
hoped they would not be able to. reachtheir Vessels.

COBLENTZ, JULY I a.—The King of. Holland,,
this morning, passed by our city incognito, on his.
way, as is believed, to the waters ofWisbacteu. He
was. fOllPWed by a crowd of carriages, and had no
guard,. Some equipages preceded. his Majesty • one
day ; and he only stopped the necessary time for
changing horses.

• NAPLES, JULY- the st, inst. his Majesty,
,after. holding a. Council, :went before Gaeta, and en-
couraged by- his presence the troops which were •
shortly to commence an -attack upon that fortress.
On Monday the 7th the signal for a general-, attack
was given by the throwing Of a shell, and immedi-
ately all the batteries commenced a dreadful fire.
The Enemy answered it at first with a great deal
of spirit, but the fire of the Besiegers was so well
direatd, that it did-a great deal of mischief to the
batteries, particularly to the -battery called the,
.Queen's, of six guns. The town was perceived to
be on fire in many places, from the etre& of the
shells.. The English endeaVoured to •make a diver-
in favour of the besieged; .some Boats, •fittek
with • guns and howitzers, .fired on the besiegers,
but the batteries on the beach were so well served,
•that three -of these boats were sunk, and .the re-
mainder were.obliged to retreat: ' The King, on his
• return to Naples, found at the Passage of Garigliano
General CARACCIOL t, who, at the head of the Nea-'
politan. Troops, was opposing a landing which the '
English .endeavoured to etied. The Neapolitans
:Troops are not inferior in zeal, patience, or courage,
to-the French veterans.-

The News from the Camp' before. Gaeta, yester-
day, were, that the dreadful fire Of our batteries had
silenced
,that of the Enemy ; that the breach had
been made, the town destroyed,,and that the Prince
Of HESSE had proposed a capitulation ; but that the
conditions were not admissible. The surreudet
cannot be protraded many days longer.

The Gentleman who made an attempt to de-
stroy himself, in rather a singular way, whilst tra-
velling in a return chaise froth Hounslow to town,
,on Friday last, proVes to be a Clergyman of very
,respeCtable family and conneCtions. He. left Hao
sbire• on the preceding day,. where his Lady and
.Family reside, to transact some business in town
of an unpleasant nature; and it is supposed, that
a circumstance which gave him deep regret on
account of one of his daughters, was the cause
'of' the rash attempt. He is now declared out of

diTger.
