s;tion .which the Allies Occupied at the Moment
they cannOriaded the Heights between Au-.
g.:4, Matzen, end Holubitz, was very strong. The
Jenerny," if they had been well attended to, would
have had much trouble in opening the way to at-
toek these 'heights. The, dehles of Tellnitz, Sokol-
Schlapantz, which separated the two Armies,
opposed. many obstacles, while the elevation, of
their summits fortned"emsiderable means of defence.
Here,' as well in the position before Oimutz, the
Army, was upcn a curtain, behind wiatch they
might have placed large masses, to ael upon the of-
feniive.' Its left was secured by the Lakes of An.
Best and Menitz ; and 'its right was refused. But
they never thought of deriving an advantage from
th'is position, nor of the possibility of being attacked
upon these heights, or of finding the Enemy on that
side of the defile, while the Emperor of the French,
like a master, availed himself of the numerous faults
committed. He retained his whole force colleted
iu a mass, to be ready for any event.
" Marshal BERNADOTTE, who had joined the Em-
peror on the same day the Allies presented themselves
to his view on the heights of Pratzen, was immedi-
ately placed to the left of the high road. During the
night the Emperor NAPOLEON ordered him to leave
this position, and place himself behind,the village of
(;irschiliowitz, which was strongly occupied. This
corps el the army, composed of the divisions of Ith-
vALTD and DROUET, formed the centre of the French
.Irmy. Prince MURAT'S cavalry was in the rear of
BERNADOTTE'S corps to the left. Marshal LANNES
formed the left wing with the divisions of SUCHET
and CAFARELLI ; the latter extended to Prince MU,
EAT'S left ; the right, under Marshal Sourer, was
placed between Kobeinitz and Soholnitz, tbrmino-
the extremity of this wing, and occupied those vil-
lages with large detachments of iulantry. Gener,al
VANDAmmr.'s division was to the left, and the divi-
sion of ST. HILAIRE in Marshal SOULT'S centre.
" The reserve, composed of ten battalions of the,
Imperial Guard, and ten battalions udder General
OunzNoT, commanded by General Ducoc, was

Vhusr's corps that had just arrived from Presburg,

WE received this morning New York Papers to the
14th- We are sorry to find that every effort is
used to inflSme the public mind in America
against this Country : We have extraCted an article
respe&ing the behaviour of an Officer of the Cam-
brian to the Crew of an American Ship, not because
we give the slightest credit to the statement, but as a
specimen of the intemperate and indecent language
which disgraces the American Papers. The intelli-
gence respeCting General MutANDA's Expedition is
not of so late a date as that which we have already
received from the West Indies.

Tins morning we received some French Papers,
but not of a litter date than those which arrived on

Two Gottenburgh Mails arrived this morning.
The following ;s the only.drtiele of intelligence they

" GOTTENBURGH, JULY 28.—Yesterday arrived a
,litassian Courier in nine days from St. Petersburg!),
v.rith, Dispatches for the Russian Minister in London,
for the English Government.: be will take his
oasssge in the il4::.l,cet that sails to-day. The Russian

Army, it app ears, 2.1-e all in cantonm2ntz, rec.':,- to
be fbrtli at an hours warning. -A Lirge body.
of Troops is upon the PoliF.ll frontier."

'WE expressed, on Saturday last, our hopes that
the French Frigates which chaced the Loire, on the
_ .
toast of Ireland, would share the fate of their con-
sort, La 'Gaerriere, and tha't hope has, to a' certain
extent, been realiied ; for a Telegraphic Dispatch
was yesterday received at the Admiralty, from Ply 7
mouth, - stating, th=at the Mars, Captain OLIVER,
had cr:-ived there with the French Frigate Le
Rhin, of 4,4 guns.---Our Readcis will recolle6.l that
intelligence was received on Saturday last, that His
Majesty's Frigate La Loire had been chaced by three
French Frigates off the Southern Coast of Ireland,
and that, in the course of the chace, La Loire fell in
•,
with the Sujierb, Capt. KEATS, and the Mole Fri-
gate, and that they all joined in pursuit of the Ene-
my. No account has yet reached Town of the par-
ticulars of the Capture of Le Rhin, nor is it known
whether the other Frigates have made their escape
or not. From the number of Vessels, however,
that are on the look-out for theirs, we think it very
unlikely that they should escape.

Yesterday the Signal was made for the Expedi-
tion at Spithead to get under way, but the .wind
coming round to the Westward it was soon after
annulled. The Vessels that sailed from the Downs
have also been obliged to put back in consequence of
the wind changing.

THERE have been many reports and speculations
respeeling the -separate Treaty concluded between
Russia and France, and it has been boldly affirmed
that the terms are so very' degrading and injurious to
the former, as to excite a belief that the Rus-
sian Minister at Paris has far exceeded his com
mission, and that consequen'tly the terms will
not be ratified by his imperial Master. It is impos-
sible to put limits to-French intrigue, Or tci•calculate
the extent of its successes 3. but though Russia has
been seduced into a distinct pacification, it would be
absurd to suppose that the MiniSter sent to Paris
-would have the honour and interest of his Master so
much at his command as: to,.consent to any such
terms as rumour has imagined. We have before
cautioned our Readers against -an implicit faith in
these reports, but they begin 'to be so very extrava-
gant as to render such a, warning unnecessary.'

submitted' to the .operation.. of tapping--ti at four
