of his army, and went on to Oilinisani, with,
9 battalions of infantry, and about I,uJO cavalry,
including the " sacred sqtladrOn" which place
they reached on the evening of the sth. There
the Russians fell upon the almost immediately,
sword in hand, and in tic confusion that ensued,
BOONAPARTE changed his dress, and set off at full
gallop to \Vilna, from whence ha travelled without
delay to Paris, leaving his army to shift for them-
selves, or, in other words, 'leaving them to the
completion of that destruction which he 'had
brought upon them. Such was, the retreat
which his 'Ministers, 'Senators, and Orators, and
the enslavad press of France, have been command-
ed to denominate glorions.
The remains of the main.army left at Smorgonie,
reached Vilna on the evening of the 9th, but the
Russians entered the place nearly at the same
time, and the French took the road to Kowno. In
the pursuit to Wilna, front the 2d to the 9th, the
Russians took about 10,000 prisoners, exclusive
of the 3000 Bavarians who surrendered to Count
Kurnsow. At %Vilna, the prisoners taken, in-
cluding the sick, amounted to ,15,000. On the
11th, the Prince of Stotaitisizo had hl9 head-
quarters at Wilful., •
It 1611 be seen, from this. sketch of the move-
met&: and operations of the armies, that of the
60,000 men, the 'only remaining troops of the
French Cratul Army engaged in the battle of the
Beresitta, scarcely 10,000 .were left to attempt to
retreat from Wilna to KfAvito, with the excep-
tion of the few who were with Bu owarAarg at
Oehnisani, and who escaped from the attack at
that place. These. 10,000, in their retreat to
Kowno, were closely pursued and harassed by
Pi4rorp, nod there is every reason
,to believe that
a very small munlivr, of theni ultimately. escaped.
Never was the distruction of an immense invading
army more complete.--Never did vaulting ambi -
flint move signally overleap itself.
The complete, success, of the Russian. a,-Ins led
to the defection of the Prussian4frOm the French,
of MOO we gave the details, on Satttrday, fful this
was followed by MACDONALD being. compelled to
evacuate Tilsit and fly to Konigsburgh. Against
KOnighfirgh, hOWever, we learn, by private
letters brought by the Gottenburgh' Mails, the
li nssians were advancing, . and before them
lutist still fly the' miserable remnant 'of' the French
force. . Wherever the French Marshals
tienerals take refuge, without corps or divi-
sions to command, we shall, no doubt, he told
in the Paris Papers that there the corps are sta-
tioned but :this ridiealous farce can no longer
impose upon Europe no delusion ,can now pre-
vela the successes of the Russian arms from having
their full operation and eifectapon the minds of
the people of the Continent,

Another Gattenburgh ?Bail arrived yesterdar;
hut its date, (being that duc:ort the Sunday pre-
ceding) are not so late as those by one of the

Saturday.

The intended new organization of Poland by the
Emperor of ItUtiHiA. is differently spoken of ; it
being suid, on the one hand, that his Imperial
Majesty intends to declare himself Iqng of. Po-
land ; and, 9n the other, that the Sovereignty is
to be conferred upon the Duke of 01.3)1.N1:11kGit,

It will not, probably, be long before we shall
in possession of some authentic intelligence upon
the subject.
