copy of.a' Dispatch .from' Sir Arthur Paget, K. B. to Lord
. Mulgrave, dated Vienna, 6tli July, 18es. (No. 55).
'My. Lord—The French Ambassador demanded at
the beginning of' this week an' interview with' the
Vice-Chancellor, . who being_ himself too unwell
to accept it, deputed the. Under-Secretary of State
to receive him.
The purport 6f the' communication made by M.
De Rochefoucault was to inthrtn-this Court, that, the
different encampments which had lately.takca.pLce
in Italy had been foiped for the 'sole purpose of ex-:
ercising the troops, and that having been, inspected by
I;;Oilaparter they had broken up; and the troops
had returned into their respective quarters : that 80,
, naparte could not be ignorant of, or in-i'ensitile to' the
great military preparations which have of late been!
, making in this Couut.ry ; that he trusted, however,
that the Emiieror guided by a mutual desire to re-
main upon terms of triendsiaip • and . amity wiih
• France, would give the satire: unequivocal proofs'
it. .

Two or three days after this commonication the
Vice-Chancellor saw the French Atnbascidor, and
gavellim the same sort .-of ill/SW& he had aireadv
done on nearly a similar occasion`... He..'infortned
him, - that the .military preparations alluded to, hact
been determinedupon, in consequence of the French
Army in Italy having been considerably augmented ; -
that precautions,therefore,had rendered them neces-
sary ; that it was, and always woeld be; the Empc.ii.:
rur's firm resolution to adopt such a s.) stem as the
safety of his dominions appeared to requite ; that the
preparations. in question Were within these domi-
nions, whereas Bonaparte had colie&ed his troops iu
a. Country which did not belong to him-.
The abofeis the substance of what has passed upon
this occasion between the Vice-Chancellor and the
French Ambassador, as related to me by the former. -

My Lord—Orders were issued on Monday or
Tuesday last for assembling an army of 40,000 men
at.BUdweis, in Bohethia.
In Italy and the Tyrollbere may befrom 120;000
to 150,000 men.
But of all the preparations which" have been made
tone have created so much • sensation among the.
public here; fior, in fait, bear so much the aspect of
a serious intention to a&, as this last measure.
The first movement of this Corps would naturally
be to take a position upon the Inn.
Two Military Councils have .lately been held-at
LuxernbOurgh, at. which the Emperor presided.—
The Archdukes Charles and John, the Generals La.

was perfeetly quiet_upon the Rhine.

G. L. Gower, by an A.l-,stri'ln. 'Messenger, Copies of
- the Declaration-s eltchanged betWeen-hina and CoUnt
Stadion, on thet-li i.usf iit. r'' - • •
In the one .presented by his Lordship, it appedrs
-that his Iniki-i4l Majesty his consented to 'adopt the
.modifications proposed by the Einper6r; of Russia-to
-the arrangements-for the general pacification of the
.t Continent. The remaining point, therefore, to be
s'ettled•between•the two Courts is that of subsidies. :

-And, in the 'first place, I have- to- acquaint your
Lordship, that at an interview I had with Count Co-
llentzel Immediately after the rec‘-ipt of Lord G: L.
Gower's letter, I desired to know- whether the Em-
peror would ratify Count Stadiou's Declaration, and
consent to the' 'conditions under "which our offer of
Subsidy is made to the Austrian Government ?
• In answer. to which application, I.Was this day
informed, by the Vice-Chancellor, that, although be
had not as yet received his Imperial Majesty's final
• 'commands, yet that he bad co doubt that the ratifi-
- cation to the above declaration we be---sent to St.
retersbui,gh by the first messeni;er. •
It is obviously unnecessary for Me to enthr into
any calculation of the difference bv.ween the Sulpi
= sidy offered and the sum demanded.
For the year 18715 the stipulatiohs are, as I am in-
- formed by the Vice-Chancellor, mutually under-
stood and agreed to.
It is therefore for the Subsidy of the present year.
• that his -Majesty's ultimate decision is anxiously
awaited; and, with a view to accelerate as much as
possible the conclusion of this buSiness, 1 conceive
• it to be the wish- of the Emperor's Ministers, -that it
should henceforth be treated, direculy between the
• Courts of London and Vienna. • ,

• From the present appearance of things, it is evi-
dent, that a war with France will now no longer
depend-upon the payment of-one.Or 200,0001. more'

-or less ;. I must nevertheless observe, that COnot
':Cobentzel has insinuated to ine, that the Janguage
whiCh.the Emperor will soon be called upon to hold
to the French Government,. would naturally be
heightened or lowered in proportion as he May be
provided with the means of making goOd his pre-
tensioni. his njesty's Government may certain-

Iy expecl that the Subsidiary_dernands of the CoUrt
of Vienna, beyond the sum which has already.be,en
offered' by his Majesty's.Arnbassador at St. Peters-
tui=gh,
.and accepted. Count Stadion', Will, be
,strongly pressed upon. •
Accdrdiug to the best information I have been
Able to. obtain .upon the subjed, the Austrian arma-
ments have already occasioned au expenditure of
about thirty-six millions of 'florins. What the re-
iult of them may be, is another question ; but I
Must admit, that they could uot.A)ave_bein carri;.%l
on upon a more extensive and a more formidable
scale, and with greater activity, haci,that sum been
pleviOnsly- placed in their bank. •
I have rdceived the same statement of the expen-
diture from Count Cobentzel, and, he has, in fa6t,
relueSted me to impress as strongly as possible upon
the minds of his Majesty's Ministers, that, consider-
ing the wretched state of the finances of this Coun-
tr_y, the Emperor fully relied upon the generosity of
his Majesty, and had, consequently, not hesitated
at once to place his armies upon the most formidable
footing. I have the Him. our to be, &c.

dopy of a Dispatch from Sir Arthur. Paget to Lord Mul-
grave, dated Vienna, August 29th, 1505.--(No. 73.

My Lord—l have the honour to inclose a Ilegle-
ment, which was published yesterday, and by which
the Austrian Army is declared to be upon the war
establishment.

In order to avoid your Lordship an immediate

contest with the probably bad Gertnan in which this
Reglement is written, I have =lied a translation to
be made of the essential points contained in it, which

I herewith enclose. The opening cf it is, in faEt, the
most, itnixmant of the whole.

• I happened to be ih Count Cobentzel's Cabinet
yesterday morning reading some -papers, when the
French Ambassador arrived in the adjoining andi-
.ence with this Reglement in his hand.
The interview, though very-short, was, I fancy,
rather a boisterous one.
M. De la • Rochefoucault, alluding to the Regle-
ment, began by saying, as Count Cobeatzel in-
foymed me immediately afterwards, " Vous voulez
dpnc la guerre, et Bien von; l'aurez ;" the =versa,.
tion did not in other respects appear tabe very no
The Yice-Chancellor contended that the Em-
peror's views ia arming were to maintain peace, and

•
that at all events he armed in his•own country,
.whereas Bonaparte's armaments were made in a
country which did :;ot belong to him.
• it is unnecessary that I should say more upon this
subject, as your Lordship will have already received,
through Count Stahremberg, the most recent Com-
munications which. have taken place between the
Court of Vienna and the French Government.

gravc,,d4ted Vienna, Aug. 30, i80,5.—(N0. 77.)

_My,
Lord-i--It was not until this afternoon that I
got a sight Of the Answer made by the French Go-

vermneot to the Declaration- of the Court of Vien-

na.
This Answer, as well as a Letter from M. Di
Talleyrand to. the Vice-Chancellor, written about
two days after, and a 'second Note presented to
Count Philip Cobentzel ,about the sables . time, .all
'Which I have' read,, will be sent in the- course of a
very -few dayS to Count Stahremberg, for the'in-
formation of his Majesty's Government.
- In the-mean- time; I will inform-youe Lordship Of
the substance of, the matter contained- 'in' these
pieces.
In thetrst place, the Note in answer to the De-
claration contains a refasal to accept:the mediation of
the'Court of Vienna., - •. • - ; •
'Bonaparte reje6ts all idea of any-further Negotia-
tion with Russia; he at -the same time tells the
Court of Vienna that it depends upon the Emperor
to bring about,ei Peace between England and. France;
. that he has nothing to do . Taut to disarm, and to de-
sclare to England, that he will take -no part in her.
quail-els with France, and that thus peace between
these -Powers will be signed before the month of
February.
The Letter of M. De Talleyrand is written in the
same sense, and goes into a great'deal of detail, to
-• prtsve that Austria is'running headlong into perdi-
lion, hy allying itselt,with Russia: that its true Ally
is 'France ; 'that the Emperor has no right to com-
plain 'of the annexation of Genoa to France, becadse
Bonaparte tacitly consented to the cession of Lindau,
in, -Suabia (this is so ludicrous that, had I not seen
it,
.I should not have ventured tai have reported it),
to the Court of Vienna. Twill just observe that this
Lindau belonged to the Prince Beetzenheim, a rta-
' tural son of the late Ele6lor of Bavaria, for which
possession he has in exchange received an estate in
sHungary :. that the wholecondud of the Court of
Vienna 'is favourable to England, and of course Mi-
t-deaf to France ; that these armaments will oblige
Bonaparte to withdraw his troops from the coast,
'and-that he must thus abandon the conquest of Eng--
- land, towards which his whole views had been of
la: clire4ted.
rss'he -Second Note contains a formal demand that
the Aastrian troops: in Italy and the Tyrol should
be reduced to the numbers that were in those conn-
' tries six mouths ago, and that the 'Fortifications de
Campagne should be discontinued, in which class
those of Venice are.placed.
To these demands a 'speedy and categorical an-,
saver is insisted upon s in default of which Bona-
parte will withdraw his troops from the coast, in or-
der to repel force by force.—l am, &c.

,My Lord—Orders have been transmitted within
these three or four days to the Russian Ambassa-
dor for the 'embarkation of the Russian troops at
Corfu.
Count Razarnosky is not informed of.the place
.where this force will disembark ; this is to be decid-
ed,according to circumstances, by the Commander;
but it appears probable that they will proceed at
once to Naples. It is presumed that Sir JAS. Craig
has been instru6ted to ,cosoperate with the Russian
General for the expulsion of the French from that
kingdom, should affairs take that turn.'
Count Cobentzel has led me to expe6t that a com-
munication will very soon be made to me, relative
to the co-operation of the forces' under Sir James

am happy to inform 'your' Lordship, that the
Emperor's ratification of the A& of Accession ,deliver-
eden the eth ult. by Count Stadion to his Majesty's

he will take up his head-quarters at Padua, at Which
place he will arrive on the sth day.
The Archduke John left Vienna for the Tyrol the

dated Vienna, Sept. 14, 1805,—(N0.,87.) .
lam to see Count Cobentzel this evening. It is
possible that the nature of the communication I ex-
pea to receive will relate to the Bavarian business,
and may induce me to send a Messenger to Eng-
land.. Lest it, should be otherwise, I will now !in-
form yotir Lordship, that the'Ele6tor of Bavaria,.
afterhaVing in the most solemn manner bound him-
self to Join his troops to thoSe of Austria, precipi-
tately left
,Munich, having' given orders for the
whole of his •army to follow him in Franconia.—
The French Minister had also set out for Wiirtz-
burgh. I cannot as yet
,inform your .Lordship of
the measures which this condti& of the Ele&or may
leach the Court of Vienna' to adopt towards Bavaria. •
I -believe that the last accounts at present say the'
Austrians have flow orders-to advance as faras the
Lech.

My. Lord—l have thEt honour to inclose a dupli-
cate of my dispatch of yesterday::.
I have now to inform your Lordship, that . the
French Ambassador yestOclay demanded this pass-
ports, whiCh he was instru&ed to do as soon as he
received information of the Austrians having entered
into Bavaria.

Instrudions have been sent to the Austrian Minister
at Munich to follow the Elector of Bavaria to Wurtz-:
burgh, and to, employ promises, threats, and every
means of bringing him back to his engagements.
This had already been done by Prince SChwartzen-
burgh.. M. Buol will oQr more. We shall see::
whe4 her M. De Mongelas will be more tradable.
with him.

The Bal'arian Forces do not, as Count Cobentzel
mentioned to me last night, amount to more.than'ter
or twelve thousand men. The EleEtor of Bavariz, in
his
,first interview with the Prince, Promised every
thing tba,t.was demanded ; he confirmed his pron-iise
in a .few lines he wrote him. • sent Gelled% Nif--

garolla Mere with a letter to the Emperor, which
'commences nearly iii these words-7-" I have ordered
'my Minister to sign a Treaty .with -Prince Schwart-
ienbuargh, by which I join. my troops to those ofycnh
Maje:ity."

Mulgrave; dated Vienna, Sept. iB, igosi (M). 91)

..My Lord—The Emperor-sets out for the army to:
morrow. His Imperial Majesty, after having con-
ferred. with General Mack upon the different objeEts
for which he undertakes this journey, will, I under-
stand, return to Vienna for the transaaion 'of bUsi-
neSs, previous to his final departure to take the
c'ommapd of his armies.

My last letters will have informed your iLordship
that the Austrians ,Nve.re *adv:ancing to the Lech:— I
have now to announce 3 still snore forward move-
ment to the Bier, or, in other words, to theposition
of Ulm.

According to the last accounts !Which live been
received here, it is supposed that the unify 'under
Bonaparte, which is assembling at .Strasburglrand
Mayence, but particularly the. latter, will amount
to 11 5,000- men ; independent of this, -there is the
army under Bernadotte, which is understood to be
marchinc, in. the direction of Franconia, with the
view probably' Gf thieatening Bohemia. •
It will therefore prObably become .necessary to
strengtlye,n the Austrian .I„.rmy in .Gamiany, -which
can only be done by drawing troops from the Tyrol.
ThiS consideration, tbgeilier with the determination
which .had- been:tali:en 'of not: commencing 'opera-
tions in Switzerland, have indked the .inperor to
accede-to the'dernand 'of nectirAty made by the
Sviss Government; accordingly his Imperial Ma-
jesty, in his \answer to the Landamman, has 'Signilied
to that,Government hid consent, to, admit the neu-
trality of Switzerland ; bur his ImperiallVf*Sty lies
at tho-§iiiie.tiine di elared; "thatihis observance 'of this
engagement will depend entirely upona striA 44342
renceld Such a system on the-part uithe Swiss, and
that from the moment, they.. permit, the pas Sage
the French troops, or grant supplies of .any sort;--in
general;- or that they deviate from the neutrality They
have proposed, he shall, Withbut.further. explana-,
tion, look. ,upon the agreement as dissolved.

The nece;sity.of employin fresh efforts appears to'
be felt. here; I am infornied by Count Cobentzel,
that not only all the reserves,_ .but what is called the
double reserve; have been called out.

.my Lorcl-L-I.bave little to trouble your Lordship
with by this post..
The reports from General Mack are of. the most
satisfactory nature, and the apprehensions which
were at one time entertained from the immense
force which Bonaparte. is bringing into Germany gra-
dually decreases : the desertion of the Bavarians to
the Austrians is said to be considerable.

Count Cobentzel's information, hoWever, respea-
ing the numbers of the Bavarian. Army,- was in-
correet.

They may, I believe, be estimated at 20,000
men.

My, Lord—lt has been several time reported
here that the French had crossed the Rhine.;: the
account which arrived hereyesteiday of: that - event
appears to tie credited by this Government. Should
it be true, or 'whenever it may happen, General'
Mack, as Count Cobentzel assured me last night, has
orders to advance and give them battle. It has' been
found necessary to reinforce thearmyln Germany,
'by drawing thirty battalions fiOm Italy; a cire-am7.
stance which.appears to have created some displea-.
sure in the Archduke Charles. •

My Lord—lf th'efirst operations of the campaign
have been...attended with `loss and disadvantage,
which, from the present aspect of affairs, it is I inn
grieved to Say, not WO much to presurne, we may,.
amoug other. causes, attribute our ill.succeSsesito the •,
following :
The first and principal fault which has been com-
mitted was to have taken -the field with too small a
force; since the very, first appearance of a rupture
wall France, it has been proved almost to cietiNt2,,
stration,
.that the theatre of the war would be in
Germany'. -Bonaparte himself, publicly. .announced
it in the first.lyate presented by the,Charged'Atfaires
at Ratisboa ; and it was otherwise not difficult to
Calcula...e, that t.. 0 'whole army Of Bonaparte
rather be direde'd towards Stras'eurgli than Verona.
• Massena cannot have more -than 70,04. men tin-
der Ms coialiynd,• the cuinte-

diate command of Bonaparte canno!- ha oitialated
less than 140,000. Ncitwil4.4anding which, the
campaign has been opened in G:rmany by about
80,000 Austrians ; whereas to attack or oppose
Massena, neither of which he has\ hitherto`done,
the ArChduke Charles has' not less than from 100
to '120,000 men.
I cannot explahi this strange distribution and tpis-
_appl cat ion . of-the-forces- but in the two -foro7a.'ing
. .
ways_

I First, It is probable, that Gen. kfack,. aware of

him by the Archduke, was unwilling to. inflame that
aniinosity by a proposal to withdraw froni Italy any

anything irofil'Obable in ,this surmise, for it was not
until the.hiStextremity that 30 hattalfons of Infantry
were in faa ordered from Italy to feinforce, the Arch-
duke Fekdinand's army, anal welnmy that lthit'very
measure gave a great deal of umbrage to the. ArCh-
duke Charles., ,
2dly; In:settling the plan of the campaig-nit must

IThere was unquestionably something fascinating
in the idea of opening.the campaign hi Swabia or

be presumed, had the latter been tixed upon as the
first scene of anion, various advautacres would „have
resulted from it. .
In the first' place;.had the. Austrians advanced no
further than the Inn or the her, or even the_ Lech,
the: French would have...required eight or ten days
mote to come in

with' them;
_and the Rus-
sians might have as many days less. Thus
the Archduke Ferdinand's army, of g();000 men, the
Russians and Austrian cavalry; making tio,ooo, wonid.
have been ready to together,;on alsignal given.
• 2.dly. By this plan (suppesing the Austrians to
have taken theittirstposition (.?n: the Imr) it is pos-
' sible that the ScaUdalous_defedion of the Eleaor of
Bavaria might have been avoided. Placed betWeea

No. I) 1.. (B.)—traas from a Paper, int/tuled, Remarks
on the Plait Operations pro;)(tbd ui Austria.
The Plan which the Cabinet of Vienna has trans-
mitted to that St. Petersburg-le presents 'a new proof
of the intimate confidence meeially subsisting be-
tween the two Imperial Courts ; and if the War
pow. undertaken te check and restrain the ambition of
-Bonaparte shit terminate happily, its success must be
owiegieo the continuation of that confidence. Upon.
this principle -e.-e shall, without dissembling any dif-
ficulty, offer our remarks upcn the-Plan, article by
article, in order to obviate, as much as possible, the
difficulties_ apprehended by the Austrian Cabinet.
• The'plan begins with stating as a fa-t, that the
real ferceS Of the French emount, upon the new or-
gani•zatiote, to 598)084 men, and with the addition •
of those which are at the disposal of the French Go-
vernment, to The Cabinet-of St. Pe-
tersburgh has reason to believe, that the French
Ariiiy is -far from being complete on its new orga-
nization, in eensequence of the difficulty which. the
French Government has to surmount, and notwith-
standing the .violent means it is ebliged to use, to
'muster the fresh Conscripts, who strive, in all pus-
bible weys, to avoid the service. .
nesideS, 'though the English shbuld be unable to
effe& any disembarkation on-the French coast, • suf-
ficient for • the prosecution of -regular war within
France, they may, nevertheless, occupy_a consider-
table nember ef die French troops, by menacing a
descent en all the accessible points : on 'the Lower
Elbe, on the WeSer, on the coasts of Holland,
Flanders, France, and Italy. The French, in short,
must be naturally obliged to 'divide their strength,
and distribute their forces for the defence of every as-
sailable point of their possessions.
It follows, that the French can never be in a con-
dition' to oppose so many -as 500000 men to the
Opetatioes of the Powereof the coalition, and that
a deduction of perhaps one-third of their forces may
be confidently reckehed Upon. --The disproportion
of 250,000 Austrians
and 115,030 .I.ln.i:4lans to 'the
French troops which cap ''be hreugle to a& against
them, will therefore be less considerable than it has
been supposed.
From the unfavourable calculation of the relative
forces of France and the Allies, Which is presented
iii the pip of the Court. of Vienna, the following
•coechfsiems have been drawn :—" 1. That the local
adeantag-es.which -France, enjoys by its gedgraphical
• position, whether for defence Or for aggression, are
such, 'that it is desirable to -remain at peace till a
more favourable conjunebare of afiairs." , -
This reasoning would be solid and just, if it were
probable that- any 'more favourable conjuneture of
affairs should hereafter arise ; if the Court of Vieena
could, in • the mean While, prepare and augment its
forces, and► it:, the state of things should, 'in other
respe&s, remain unaltered.
while Europe temporises, Bonaparte's Go-
vernment acquires every day new stability. His
power increases by the subjugation and new organi-
zation of all. Lombardy and. Parma. The relative
geographical advantages can undergo no change
favourable to Austria, but, in tat, the cent:am--
Besides, there can.be nothing inure dangerous than
the policy the' French, (.4overnieeee wields eels
ever gained more by negotiations than by its arms.
If we enumerate the battles of the last war, tLe
French lost as, many as they' gained. It is always
in the intervals between one great period and
.anu-
1-- thee, in seasons .of insiecere, nominal peace, that
they enlarge their domieions.
• "We are therefore firmly • persuaded, that the
Cotta t of Vienna, if it would consult its own true
interest 4., should not hesitate 'to. renew the war as
speedily as possible; and ought to make every effort
to -prevent Bonaparte. from consolidating his power.
Assured of the azsistapee or Russia, and of England,
when shall it find a conjunaure more favourable?
The s.econdehing assumed as a conclusion in the
, Austrian, plan, is, that if War be inevitable, the
Allied Coe:ts ought to aet " with thy most vigor-
ous efforteof whieh,they are capable." In this he
Court of Vienna has formed a just opinion. But it
errs in supposing fbr a moment that it' would be
left alone in the midst of the contest., The good
faith and. honour of his Majesty the Enipet-er
,df Russia are to well known to admit a shadow "of
distrust upon this bead. Neither woeld the
lisle Government be disposed to saceifice such ha-

inente sums of Money, if its d.:terxnination were not
finally find.
After this conclusion in the plan, are mentioned.
three things, the co-operation of Which is requisite
in order to bring forward those great energies which
are necessary to the success of " the alliance, namely,
the, military. arrangements, the financial arrange-
ments, and the general policy,
1. 'f It is stated, that military efforts would be of
" no avail.if the Austrian Armies shotild enter the,
" field less than 500,000 strong,
We entertain too hie?. an opinion of the resources
of the Court of Vienna, to doubt but the Austrian
army may be put in a short time upon such a re-
spe6table. footing, as to enter the field in sufficient
force. Being ip alliance.with Itussia, and certain of
the good 'faith of that ‘Power, it will have pnlY.Trance
to oppose, and will not be under any great necessity
of maintaining a force to observe Prussia.
It is very true, that the French, as soon as they
shall see war to be inevitable, will put themselVes in
motion ; and that Austria will have to sustain their
first attack till the Russians join therh. But, as the
p.ussian troops are.ready to march, a,body of them
may be detached immediately, which shalLadvance
by forced marches to assist in the proteEtion of the
hereditary dominions of the House of Austria, arid
to arr;est the first drupetuosity of the torrent.
The finances are next mentioned in the plan.
The difficulty in regard to them must be in a great
measure removed by the subsidy from England. Be-
sides, it is certainly to be expeaed, that in this, as in
what regards the completion of the army, the Court
of Vienna will -not fail to :employ all its , means and
•.
resources,' •
thecentingent of Russia would be, on the whole,
115,000 men r deduaing 25,000f0r the.kingdOm of
Naples, there would ,rpmain 90,000 to aet in Ger-
many, which might be conveniently formed into two
armies, one of 50,000 men, to ,assemble on the
frontiers of Galicia, opposite to Lemberg ( the other
of 40,000 to assemble on the Boug, opposite Lublin.
The first of these armies might, upon the first_ ap,
pearance of hostilities, detach the colunin mentioned,
which should march across Galicia towards the Da-
nube, to assist in opposing the first attempts of the
French upon the IferyditaryDornittions in Germany,
when it should have arrived in the vicinity of Ratis-
bori ; its subsequent movements would be deter-
mined by the condition of the Austrian

-- - --
The rest of the Russian Army should follow im
,rnediately, in order to reach its destination with the
smallest possible 1055...0f time. •
The other Army would' march by Lublin sand
Cracow.

• It were to be wished, that we should know what
routes the Court of Vienna .would particularly de-
sire that these two-Armies should take.- In all cases
their marchei should --be Jespealvely so arranged.,
that they may not meet at Teschen.
As to their operations, :the first might, be employ -
ed on the Left Bank of the.Panube,, in commtinica,
tion with the Austrians :upon the opposite Bank,
having its left upon Donailwert.
--The second Army, upon: arriving in Bohemia,
would proceed into Franconia, or wherever the state
of affairs should require its presence.. . ,
The Court of St. Petersbiargh is about to send a
confidential, person .to Paris to make a last endeavour
to, persuade Bonaparte to listen to, concli7
should the:co 14ia.- accepted, it. may prevent
the war. But, in the man time, nothing is to be
r egleaed for it is certain, that we- shall succeed
only in propOrtion as we put ourselves in a. reSpeaa,
hie position. And we ,ought to be ready to begin
the moment the:Negotiation terthinates.
The reasonings suggested upon the probable pro-
gress of the military. Operations, appear to proceed
upon very salutary and Judicious views. It is agreed,
:that any operations against the frontier of France,
along the Rhine, whether 'above Or below Mentz,
would be attended with great difficulty. , It is rd-,
flier on the Italian line that the first success is to be
cicpeaed. It is consequently towards that quarter
that the principal efibrts,ought to be directed. ,All
this part of the plan must be allowed to be perfealy
well arranged.

No:. I V.-- E xtraet liztn a Memoir on the Situation ofA ffairs,

c9ramunicated by Count Staluemberg.

Never were hopes, founded on the
.most salutary
views and plans, destroyed by a more fatal blow
than the disastrous reverse which our army in Ger-
„many has experienced by a concourse of unfortu7
_nate circumstances, the consequence of a single
fault. •

The simultaneous co-operation of the ,two Impe-
rial Courts of England and Prussia should have of-
fered, 'at the commencement of the War, a chain of
armed forces from the North to the SOuth, and
should have obliged France, by mutual diversions to
fepaiale her's. It WAS our _first misfortune, that
none of the hopes we had placed in diversions,bn the
North of the Continent, which ..might have obliged
Emperor- of the French to divide the troops that
hellad withdrawn from his coasts, were realized;
and.-not only it these troops were able to be em-
ploved against our Army in Germany, but even the
Gailo4iatavian Army and that of Bernddotte could
quit>ll-,:llanc.l and flanoVex also, without impediment,
to joie in the attack.---it is to this circumstance that
the French troops which were opposed to oars owe
the = sUperiority of their numbers; for, deduEting
these two Armies, the Troops arrived from the in-
terior in the course of' the month of ()Libber have
but little exceeded the number of Austrian Troops
placed on the filer; where, in the strong .pbsition
which they occupied, they would have been .able to
await thejanelion,of the first Army of His, Majesty
the Emperor Of RuSsia.- There was even a moment
when they had the hope of 'Preventing the jUntiion
of the French Troops from the North With those
• arriecl- from the interiur of France; by falling on a
party'of the latter ; when, 'as a,seconcl misfortune;
the violation of the Prussian Neutrality. suddenly
changed the face of affairs, and' reduced our- Ger-
man Army to the alternative, either 'to fail back irn=
mediately on the Inn, or see itself surrounded' and
destroyed.

The retreat on the Inn should have prevented
every disigye.eable consequence: ...Joined to the'body
Of the Army under
,the, General in Chief, De Kutu-
sk• Av; these Troops would have been sufficient to re-
sist the -limited French. Forces; the subsequent at'ri-
,Nl of the second Russian army; and, fihallsr, the
flevelopemept of other measures of the coalition,
Flight have procured to the Allier). Troops that su-

periiirity of force which had been absolutely depended
on in the Mutual-engagements.
ThroUgh-the inconceivable fault of a Genell cho-
sen for a reputation geinid in fermer successes, the
•
Army of Germany remained on the Iller ; and in
the course of a few days, without having been beaten,
after sotne slight aftions, in whiCh it had rather the
advantage than the disadvantage, the greater part of
the _Army was taken,-and the remainder dispersed.
All the following misfortunes were the inevitable
consequences of this disaster. '
The united French Forces in Germany alone, ex'=
ceeding, witheut the Allied. Trogps, 110,000 men,
advanced against the Austria-Russian Troops posted
on the Inn, which amounted to little more than
the half of that number. To' expose these
Troops to a regular combat against a Force double
their- number, would have been -to risk the ruin of
them before 'the arrival of the second Army of
His Majesty the Emperor of Russia ; it would have
been to_commit the same fault that had just Inst'our
Army of Germany. - On the contrary, to preserve
the first RusSian Army entire' until the arrival of
the second became the principal obje& of the dis-
positions which-were concerted by His Majesty in
person, with the General in Chief, Kutusow. •
To complete our disappointments, the arrival of
the second Russian Army was delayed more than a
,month, by the first Armaments which the Court of
Berlin threatened to Oppose to those of the Court of
PeterSbUrgh. The Troops, therefore, under Generals
'De Meerfeldt and Kutusow, unable to maintain a
position on the Inn, .or in any other part of Austria,-
were obliged to fall back upon Moravia. The ine•
vitable consequence of this movement was the pro-
gressive advance of the enemy in Upper and Lower
Austria. Having reached the last bridge on the Da,
nube above Vienna, near Krems, the Russian Army
bad no other alternative than to pass it, in order to
avoid being .cut off from the Left Bank, ,and from
the-route into Moravia. From that moment the fate
of the capital of Austria was decided; considering
the impossibility' of defending it within the walls,
unless the time necessary for the arrival of reinforce-
meats could be gained by means of an Armistice for
a very short period. Many reasons concuned to
render His Majesty desirous of saving hit capital by
such an' Armistice.; he therefore deterthined to send
Lieutenant-General Count- De Giulay to the' Em-
peror Napoleon to propose it.' The Negotiation
was Without effeat.
Vienna was occupied by the French ; and his Ma-
testy.thought, by the sacrifice Of his capital, atleaSt to
have ensured to the first Russian Army the ladility
of a lunation With the second. To this effe& he gave
the most' positiVe . orders that the 'great bridge in
front of Vienna should be destroyed, whereby' four
or five days .inarch would have •been-gained,l6- the
General in Chief Kutusow. Prince Murat, hoW-
ever, deceived the person to whom -this charge was
iii trusted, by *the unworthy falsehood that ' peace
was just
,concluded between Austria-and France, and
thus prevented the demolition of that Bridge. ' This
cruel incident 'exposed the first Russian Army to
the most imminent danger of being surrounded and
destroyed, before-it could join the Army' of General
BaxlioVden, as well as a corps of 10,000 Austrians
that had retreated-from Vienna.
Had this misfortune happened the continuation of
the war-would .have been evidently impossible. The
destruction- of the first Army of his Majesty the
Emperor of Russia would have infallibly led to that
of the second, and of every subsequent reinforce-
ment successively, and separately attacked 'by the
great forced which Napoleon had assembled in
Austria ; while the Army, commanded by his High-
ness'tbe Archduke Charles in Italy, must also-have
been ruined by theSe forces united to those, of -Mas.•
sena: In a- word, the danger was so critical,' that
had. there been no 'Other means of preventing it,' his
Majesty would have been obliged to sign a preci.
pitate Peace, unfavourable indeed to himself, but in-
evitable' from motives which would have been but
too justifiable in the eyes of his Allies. The im-
possibility of prolonging the war—the necessity of
saving the-existence of the Monarchy—the general
interests of Enrope, and even of England, require
him to insure the existence of the Austrian Mo-
narchy, rather than to continue a war from which
iaothing Could be expe&ed but an issue still more
unfortunate. In shun, the sacred duties by which
his Majesty_ was bound to his noble and faithful
Friend the Emperor Alexander---duties which he
shared with every well-disposed Sovereign, and
which imposed upon him the' obligation of pre-
ferring every sacrifice to the destruation (as certain.
as it was useless) of the brave and well-appointed
Armies; which Russia was pouring forth. to his assist-
ance.

In this extremity, his Majesty did not hesitate to
enter into new Explanations with the Emperor Na-
poleol, and. to propose to open Negotiations with
him for Peace, ,as soon as measures to this. effeat
might be concerted with the Emperor Alexander,
whom his Majesty expected imtnediately to see in
person. •
But happily these dangers and necessities are no
more. Generals, Kutusow and Buxhovden have sur-
mounted the difficulties which threatened to -prevent
the seasonable junction of the forces under their
command. The ,mission..of the AuStrian Envoys
has been accompanied with the resumption of aaive
hostilities. On the 27th" of November, the day
after they quitted 'the Camp, the Combined Armies
'concentrated in the environs of Olmutz, consisting
of the first and second Russian Armies, with a
body of 20,000 Austrians, comprehending also for
their rear-guard the Imperial Life-Guards, 10,000
strong, and making an' effethve strength of 80,000
fighting men, advanced towards the Enemy. On
the 28th they had reachdd Wischaw, and had taken
in "that city and.its environs more than 600 prisoners.
On the 29th and 30th they continued their march
'to Austerlitz, ,on the way to Nikolspurg.

LONDON,
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 0, 1806.

THE report which was yesterday circulated with
so much couflderice, of the remainder of the Brest
Fleet having sailed, is unfounded, at least no intel-
ligence .cf their having put tQ sea has reached the
Admiralty.
It is stated in some of the Papers of this morning",
that the Snapper Schooner had arrived at Falmouth
from Jamaica, with \Dispatches from Rear-Admiral
COCHRANE, giving an account of the arrival of a
French Squadron in thg West 41clies, This is also
incorre4.

The .Dispatches from Rear-Admiral COCHRANE
do not mention the arrival of the French Squadron
in the West Indies, The fah is, as we stated yester-
day, that intelligence had been sent to the Rear-
Admiral that a French Squadron was at sea, and
that its probable destination- was the West Indies ;
in consequence of which information he was col-
le&ing his Force, and making the necessary prepara-
tion to give them a good reception.

We feel great pleasure in recording the very, ho-
nourable conduct of the Dutch GOverninent to the
liritish Troops who were ,wrecked on- the Coast
Of Holland. They were treated with the greatest
kindness and attention, and a Flag of Truce was sent
to Admiral RUSSEL to acquaint him that the lritish,
Troops should be sent home on condition of their
being exchanged : 350 of them have already ar-
rived in the Orpheus Frigate, and 100 in the Cam-
merce Cartel ; and two other Cartels are hourly ex-
pcded with the remainder.

We were this morning favoured with the follow-
ing Letter froM Bremen, dated the 30th'
" The Russian General Count TOLSTOY has-beens
a few days on a visit at the head quarters of .the. Bri-
tish Army, 'previous to the separation 'of the Com-
bined Forces, who are greatly disappointed atpot

W this day present to our Readers the Supple-

the Continent, which have been laid before Parlia-
ment. They render it still more clear, that to the
precipitancy of Austria, and her deviation from the
plan of operations proposed by herself, mast be at-
tributed the unfortunate result of the campaign.

Yesterday, abo'it two o'clock, HiS MAJESTY gave
an audience to Lord ELDON, when his Lordship
resigned to His MAJESTY the Great Seal of Eng-
land.

After his Lordship had retired, His MAJESTY
gave on audience to Mr. ERS KINE; and was pleased
to deliver to him the Seal, and appointed him Lord
Chancellor of Great Britain.

His MAJESTY then gave an audience to Mr. Fox,
and was pleased to deliver him the Seals, as his
Principal Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
General FITZPATRICK had next an audience of
His MAJESTY, on his being appointed Secretary at,
War.

Lord GAENvit.r.E had also an audience of .His
MAJESTY, on being appointed First Lord of the
Treasury.
His MAJESTY afterwards held a private Levee, at
which, we understand, all those who have received
important appointments -in the State kissed the
KING'S hand, according to Court etiquette.
. Mr. EitsKititt had the honour to kiss His Kurs7
TY'S hand upon his creation to a Peerage, by the
