SOME Extraas
.from Dutch Papers to the 3d inst.
will be found in a subsequent column ; they do not
contain any intelligence'ot importance, but they con-
tain the intelligence which had previously reached
us of the great military exertions of the Austrian
GOvernthent.

WE have been.favOured with the following Ex-'
tracts from the Stockholm. Gazette,- ot June .(').5
" ,The first is a Report from Field-Marshal
KLINGSPOR, dated Braliestad, June 10. It sets
forth, that after Colonel SANDELS had driven the
Russians from Rautalambi, Lappavirta, Jorois, and
Warkaus, taken all their magazines and artil-
lery (ninety-nine cannon in all), he proceeded to
Koiwist, where, after a severe conflict, the Russians
were again defeated, when a number of prisoners and
considerable stores fell into the hands of the Swedes.
SANDELS was still pursuing- the tnerny. His Head-
quarters was at Cuopio.

The next is a report from General VEGESACK,
dated the Island of Karsslo, 21st of June. Our
Readers know that the Swedes from Alapd went
in three divisions to land in Finland, one at Sacob-
stad, which had orders to proceed to Old Carleby,
with a view, in conjunaion with General KUNG-
spoO main army, to "hem in the Rils;ians, who
are there between 7 and 8000 'strong—the send
at \Vasa, which also has made good their landing;
but although several favourable rumours are circu-
lating, we have no official reports yet from either
of these divisions.—The third was destined to make
a false attack upon Abo, with a view to draw the
Itussian force to that quarter, in order to facilitate
the operation of the bther divisions. In consequence
of this, General VEGESACK reports, that
,he made
himself master of the different Islands' in the inlet
to Abe; stationed strong armaments on Kusto, and
Kaxkerta, the nearest of them, and distributed his
force in small bodies on every isle and rock, so
as to seem formidable, and make the enemy believe
that the main attack was meant upon Abo ; but
fearing that this alone should not have the desired
effe& of drawing the Russians from. the, North,
he determined to make a landing, which he accom-
plished on the igth, at the point of Lemo, under
the protection ,of the ,well-diretied fire of the Gun-
boats, which came c'ose ashore, and soon forced
the Russians to make room for the Swedes. Ge-
neral VEGEsAct; now Proceeded to th pag4- of
Outer Lemo, on the high road to Abo, having
three guns and one thousand five hundred Men.—
Here an affair began, which lasted fourteen hours
and a- half, the Russians endeavouring t 6 dislodge
him. But seeing great•bodies of Russians, mostly
cavalry, hourly pouring in, and hearing. from a
Swedish Non-cominissiOnecl Officer, who in the
night had made his escape from Abo„ that the
Russians, already 10,000. strong, were advancing
from all quarters, and that they took his corps to
be only the avant guard, he judged. that .he had
attained his purpose, and re-embarked under the
same proteaion of the gun-boats., His loss, in
killed and wounded, he states to be 194 men, in-
cluding Officers. His Adjutant, 'Baron kamSny,
was killed. Barons DE GEER and ADELSVA&D., of
the Volunteers) wounded. He praises the- soldier-
like condu6t of Cie latter corps, whom be now had
the honour, the first tirre, to lead to battle. In
the night of his landing, 107 young men, of whom
66 were soldiers of the garrison of Sweaborg, flew
to his standard, and embarked with him.

Yet we respect the feelings which animated the
meeting of yesterday, and regret, since it did take
place, that it was not better attended. Indeed it
appeared to be the opinion of the persons wilt) well
