. The teeiiit of intelligence "frord oArr Artny in
France, which we sterday aurratineed, is t`o the
20th, previOns to which thitelililfl3een a series
of smart action's on the right, preparatory to forc-
ing the passage or the Allour. The loss of the
enemy on these occasions is''eskitnated at 3000
men. It was upon Ike 12th that these operations
commenced, under the 'command of Sir RowLANn
HILL, and the desultory warfare continued\ al-
most without intermission during the three fol-
lowing days. The principal engagement was on
the 14th, when the Enemy's pOsts' were driven
.?Cross the Adour, and on the 15th the Gave de
Pall was abandoned. ,
As no dispatches have arrived, the details of
these affairs rest on a number of private letters,
"aril of Which varies from the othrs in minute
Particular's, though all concur in stating that the
htitnediate advance of Lord WELiaNaTox in force
‘',0111(1 be the consequence of the successes already
Obtained. The folloWing are. extracted from these
.tetatnunicotio.ns

" intelligence was brought by Lieutenant
l'umuis, -of the 13th Dragoons, who left the
4rrnY on the 20th, but brought no dispatches
4()lti the Field Marshal, who did not mean to
'trite till he had effected his immediate great ob-
ject of the vassne 4' of the Adour, which was cx-
keted to take place about the 23d. The loss on
ttu.r. side was comparatively trifling, but we re-
gret to state that General PR;NGLE- was wounded,
°I1(1 the gallant Captain CLITIII:RoE killed. 'Lord
W-r,LlNororr, in consequence of this advantage;
athhneedbis Head-quarters to Saint Palais and
Maile the necessary dispositions for forcing the
Pa'sage of.the Adour, for which important pur-
Nt the whole Army was to be put in motion on
the 23J.—Lieut. PHILLIPS has COWL: home on

So feeble was the opposition here pre-
' kilted to our arms, that great doubts exists
*limber SOULT can either summon the, rcsoltititm

general engagetnent : It will inspire an emotion
cleompitssion even for degraded France to learn,
that ,f the prisoners that have been taken, the
greater part are under 16 years of age. 'The pro-
gtessivr movement having been thus successfully
b'ade on the right, we must now look to the coy-
tespondiug• advance of the left. Lord WELLING-
TON himself was with that part of the line on tile
20th,
_the day when the last advises were (Hs.-
Patched. The main body of the army would, of
1, Se, immediately cross the Alour."

Another .account states the loss of the Enemy
\‘
'the tiuniers at 700 wen, and conjectures, that
tii‘e elieral movement would be on Toulouse,
being no ,suffieient force to resist our
a4vßilee.

The German Pepers contain an extract from a
letter u behalf of the French prisoners of war,
addressed by Louts the 18th to the Emperor
ALEXANDER., It does honour to the bead and
heart of the King, and when contrasted with the
apathy with which a STRANGER consigned these
Frenchmen to misery in pursuing the phantom of
his own inordinate desires, Will not, we hope,
be without its proper effect on the French nation.
An Order of the Day by Prince SCHWARTZEN-
RERG, for restraining the excesses of the sol-
diery, may also serve as a contrast to the Usurp-
er's conduct.- Who can refer to any similar Or-
der issued by him, in the invasion of other Coun-
tries ? On'the contrary, every hour of his pro-
gress through wasted terrritories afforded some.
fresh 'eXamplt:s of excitements, applied to the
boundless and unrestrained fury of the bemons
rho followed him.

It is stated that MONSIEUR, on his arriwal at
Basle, dispatched a letter to the Allied Head-
quarters. We trust the answer will be proOtiotts
to our wishes, and the permanent tranquillity of

The Swiss Canton of Berne has contributed

There was a, mistake in the Telegraphic dis-
patch received front Plymouth yesterday. It was
not the Rota, but the Eurotas, of 33 guns, which
captured after an action of two hours and a
half, the Clorinde French frigate of 44 guns, and
360 men, The Eurotas was completely dismast-
ed ; the Clornde lost all except their foremast.
Capt. PIIILLIMORE severely wounded, with 20
men killed, and 40 wounded. The Clorinde had
120 killed and wounded. The Clorinde was en-
de;ivuuring to escape, but the Eurotas with boat-
sails, jiggers. &c. was fast coming up with -her
when the Dryad and Achates hove in sight and
took possession of her.
The following is a EA of the killed and
wounded :

We give further extracts froni our American
Papers. It. will be seen that an attack on Sac-
kett's Harbour was apprehended by the Enemy,.
and therefore we entertain strong hopes that there
is truth in a report, which has just reached_ our
Office from thht quarter, namely, that Gen. Wri.-
XINSON had been again attacked and defeated
with immense loss, and that our victorious troops
had possessed themselves of the great Depot of
Sackett's Harbour. Such an event
,would decide
the fate of Ontario. The intelligence came by
way of Bermuda, whence it will be remembered
we had the first copy of the President's Speech.
It is added, that a bill had poised the I-louse of
Representatives, to oblige the Militia to march
wherever their services may be required.
