The Bank-notes above-mentioned can: no
•doubt be easily traced, not only by their Numbrs,
but by their specific indorsements ; and if any
further proof is wanted to bring home the guilt of
this most nefarious transaction to-th-e7partics con- •
cerned, it can be furnished by the Editor of the Cou-
rier, in the name and hand-writing of 'whose Corre-
4on dent atDovcr these Swindlers forged the letter in.

unfortunately deceived him in the first instance,

gains done yesterday in the Money Market,
founded on 'this fraud, will be cancelled,' as on
former occasions.

"We now turn to the French-Papers, which are,
as have stated, to the 17th only, though an

enlightened Morning Paper conjectures there are

tog no news of importance from the armies, and
which are kept back for purposes equally base arid

none such have arrived.

The new Report from BUONAPARTE to MARIA
LOUISA details a battle fought on the 14th (not
the 15th) near Montmirail, in which another vic-
tory is claimed over the Army of BLUCHER,
which had been -already routed on this ground
on the 116. The account of this battle is

as confused and incomprehensible as any of
the former. While employed, as he gives

out, in the ,pursuit of the defeated corps
of -SACEEN and VoN YoneK -towards the north,
across, the Blame at Chateau Therry, where he
repaired the bridges on the 13th, the Corps -of
MAnmoNT, which was the force sent on the Ilth
to'huld the Allies in check towards the east, in
the direction of Chalons, I.v:ls attacked by General
BLUCHER in person, and driven back, ins.a night
march (on the great road from -Chalons to
Paris), to Montinirail. BLUCHER is represented
as having remained at Vertus on this road ,with
twelve hundred men, during the three days in
which his army was deStroyed'; it was therefore
to hold 1200 men in check? that MARNIONT, with
a whole French Corps, was taken out of the field
of battle: But 13LcronEa, being reinforced to the
amount of 20,000,Men of tilt corps of LANGERON:
and KLEIST, forced MArMoNT to retreat during
the whole night of the 13th, and by this
movement recalled BIIONAPARTE' from Chateau
Tbierry, and from the pursuit of SACK;N iand-
YORCK, only to obtain, a wore splendid advantage
nn the 14th. In this action against 20,000 of the
Allies, who had 'driven. MARAONT (Without toss)

dered GROUCHY to advance to CbtonNobert, a
league in the rear of the Enemy, where BLUCHER,

continuing his retreat, arrived at the point of
nightfall. The result of this exploit Was the loss
on t;' e part of the Allies of one half of their force,
viz. 16,000 in prisoners alone, besides multitudes

fled andAvounded ? The Other scanty moiety,
however, are left; at night of the 14th, in a posi-
tion at-Eloges, where 014 were on the night of
•13th, and some fourteen miles nearer Paris than
BLVCXER'S old quarters et Vertus.,
Upon the details- of this battle of the f 4-1),
therefore, we may observe, that they are alo-
.Rether improbable, and<unwortlzy of credit. 'The
fact seems to be, that *BtTONAPARTa had succeed-
ed in separating the corps of BLuct-tER's army from,
each other, and in the first instance to obtain
some important advantages over those of SACKEIN.T,
and (perhaps of) VOYOuCK, by Which he saved
Paris on this side; but that he was not permitted
tb'follow up these successes is evident. Br ucliza
has found full eniplOyMent forbim on the left of the
Marne, and Moaxt,Ez, with his own division and
MAcDONALit's hunted forces, is left to fight his
battle on the tight of that river,where the "fu-
gitives," who are said to be flying in disorder to-
wards.ltheims, will be nut and rallied by WIN-
ZINGERODE, and eventually by thecltCAVN PRINCE.
Why theyshould 11y,Th Col-tilts-ion and disorder, is a
problem we•cannot solve; for they had placed the
Marne between them and their pursuers 24 hours,
some measure be supposed to have recovered from
their panic. In short, the whole of these state
ments of the enemy, as. we have tzftett already
stated, appear, more_ than ever, to.bemade up of
falsehoods and exaggesiatiOns.

Resting entirely as they. -nott do on the asser-
tions of a mitoiious. Impostor, we will nut follow
these fables further than to observe, that all the
successes obtained by the Allies are inv'ariably
'passed over in •utter
,silenr;e. We thus find that,
Frevious to these affairs, MAcooNALD had been
pursued by Vona Yor,cr to Meaux, about 30 miles
from Paris, and that SAct,-..E.4 had reached
Fertti.: sons Jotiarre, 'only one stage further,
from the Capital: 13uoNAPArt;it's measures were
therefOre barely in time to save it from the Allied
right, and to this extent, after bald and constant,
and equal fighting from. the 9th to the Morning
of the 15th, we think he has succeeded, without,
however, having either annihilated 'or toreed to
retreat to-any important distance the serer al corps

(inner ScirwARTZEN BERG Fins it approached Paris
still nearer on the left than VON 170.12 CK did on the

of no force to impede his advance except Vic-

forward was to be given on the 12th !-
