The victory of Lutzen will be;placed in the great

of ignorance and ferocity. Alfeady do these hi.,

disorder those rivers which they had passed with
so much pride.,. and turning against their own
country that blind fury with which they are ani-
mated, they at once spew their impotency and
despair.

PARIS, MAY' 23.—Her Majesty the EM:)reSip
Queen, and Regent, has received the following ac-
counts of the situation of the armies on the 18th

The Binperor was still at Dresden. On the
15th, the Dike of Treviso left it with Gen2ral
LAtour Maubourg's corps of cavalry, an I tie-

neral Dotnautier's infantry/division of the young
Guards. . •
On the 17t.h.., the division of theyoung guards,
commanded by Generalßarrois, also left Dresden.
The Duke of Reggio, the Duke of Tarentum,
the Duke of Ragusa, and Count Bertrand, were
in line opposite to Bautzen.
" '[he Prince of the Moskwa and General Lau-
bad reached Moyers Verda.
" The Doke Of Belluno, General Sebastiani,.
and General Replier, were marching •npon Ber-
lin. What Was foresei;n has happened at the ap-
proach of (4111get' LlW.Prussianslidiculed the regu-,
lation respecting the. landsturm. A proclamation
has adnounced to the inhabitants of Berlin, that
they were covered by BuloWs corps ; but that at
all events, shoat( the Prench arrive, they were
not to talte, up ants, but receive them according
to the principles of Nvar, There is no German who
is inclined to bunt his habitation, or to assassi-
nate any one. This circumstance constitoires the
eulogy of, the German nation. When desperadoes,
without honour and without principles, preach up
'disorder and assassination, the character of this
*good people repel them with indignation. The
Schlegels, the Kotzebucs, and other agitators
-equally criminal, would transform the Upright
Germans into poisoners and assassins ; bat pos-
terity will remark, that they have not been able
to seduce a single individual, a single authority
beyond the line of duty and of probity.
" Count Bubna arrived on the Itith at Dres-
den ; he was the bearer of a letter from the Em-
peror of Austria to the Emperor Napoleon Ile
set off on the 17th on his return for Vienna. . .

(."The Emperor Napoleon has proposed the
meeting of a Congress at Prague for 'a general
pence. On the side of France there would ar-
rive at this Congress the Plenipotentiaries of
France, those of the United States of America, of
Denmark., the Kin,, of Spain, and all the allied
Princes ; and, on the opposite side, those of Eng-
land, Russia, Prussia, the Spanish insurgents, and
the other allies of that belligerent mass. In this
Congreis would be established the basis of a long
peace: But it is doubtful whether England is in-
clined to submit her egotistic and unjust principles
to the censorship and opinion of the universe ;
for there is no power,. however inconsiderable,
that does not prelitninarily claim the privileges
attached to its sovereignty, and which are conse-
crated by the -articles of the Treaty of Utrecht,
respecting maritime navigation.
If England, fr;nu that feeling of egotism,
upon which her policy is founded, refuses to co-
operate in this grand work of the peace of the
world, because she wishes to exclude the universe
from that element-which constitutes three fourths
of the globe, the Emperor, nevertheless, proposes
.8 meeting at Prague, of the Plenipotentiaries of
all the Belligerent Powers, to settle the peace of
the Continent. His Afaiesty offers, even to sti-
pulate at the moment when the Congress shall be
formed, an armistice betwet.n the different armies,
in order .to •put a stop to the effusion .of human
blood. _

" These .prineiples, are conformable to the
views of Austria. It now remains to be seen
what the Courts of England, Russia, and Prussia
will do.
". Thu distance of the United States of America
ought not to form reasons for excluding them.
The Congress might still he opened, and the De-
puties of the United States would have.timu. to
arrive before the COUTPUSIOtt ut tile discussions, ill
order to stipulate for their rights and their in-
terests."

BAYREt/Tll, MAY 12.--Since the battle of bit-
zen a misunderstanding between the Russian and
Prossiaif armies.daily appears more apparent ; the
Prussians attribute the loss •of it to the Russian
General Miloradowitseh, who, on the 23d April,
*rrived at Dl:estlen, and marched so slowly, that
on the 29th be was only in a position at Chilli-
nitz, in the Erzgeberg, twelve leagues from Dri:s-
den. There he received a courier from the Gene-
ral in Chief Wittgenstein, with a formal order to
hasten his march to join the left wing of
,the Al-
lied Army. Aliloradowitsch obeyed this order;
be nrirehed• his corps &armee on the 29th April
from Chimnitz, and himself quitted that town on
the 30th, tint his head-widirters 'were • only esta-
blished at Penig. The following day he rested,
and the clay after marched upon Swekau ; he only
arrived there at 7 in the evening, which prevent-
ed him from taking• an active Inrrt in the battle
of Ole 241, at the conclusion of which he arrived
th • field of battle, in order to take a part in
the general retreat. it is to this slowness of the
Russian General that the Prussians attribute their
th. feat. On the other, side, the Russians accuse
General D'Yo-k of having with his corps remain-
ed nearly a tranquil spectator, and. with not.hav-
ing attacked with sufficient energy. According
to some t eports, General Wittgenstein at first in-
tended to occupy the right bank of the Elbe, and
dispute its passage with the French, but be .gave
up this project on accoant of the bail position of
his army. lie successively passed to the right
bank at' the Elbe all the Russian and Prussian
troops which u ere in Dresden. klis calculations

BERLIN, MAN' 13 —The French statement con-
cerning.the battle of the 2d of May, which has
appeared at Leipsic, stands in great contrast with
all thy'other French publications of the like na-
ture, and contains too great an acknowl'edgentent
of the ;valom• displayed. by time combined. Prussians
and Russians on that memorable day, for us to
hesitate in giving the following verbal extracts
front the Leipsic Gazette. Every sensible reader
will nevertheless, on comparing them with the
official statements on our side, easily discover the
mistahes, although not very considerable, made
in the relation of facts, and recog,nize in the Prince
of Mecklenburg, as there denominated the Prince
of Hesse Homburg, whose ptcniatureßiss We have
to deplore..
ExTEACT 01' A LETTER ',Rom BERLIN OF THE
15T MAY.
Kotzebue's Russian and Gentian paper of
this day, contains ns followS :
" A view of the latest occurrences will not at
present be given in this paper, for the reason of
their beinB. still so intricate, that one can in no-
wise clearly see through them. But thus much
we- can say for general joy and satisfaction, that
Austria has actually: joined the allies ; and that
nee troops are Marching towards Bavaria and
Italy;. that.Stixony will egam unite with _Austria,
so soon as site possibly exit ; that the Crown
Prince of Sweden is actually arrived to add to his
welt-earned laurels ;. that time allied troops are still
animated With the same coo age, of which they
gave proofs on the 2d; that the national ar-
mament and the insurrection are all under arms ;
and finally, that Prince' Nutusoff of Smolensk°
wrote to his Emperor after the capture of Moscow
by the enemy, in the following terms :
" Your Majesty. must not conceive that the
Monarchy is lost because that Moscow -is in the
hands'of .the enemy." • .
Fttom 'nut LOWER ELDE.-7Accorfling to a letter
of late chile, from a Prussian Officer with the
corps of General Tschernichell, it appears that
this corps, after having a second time crossed the
Elbe, had daily had advantageous skirmishes. with
the enemy, whose head-quarters• were at Gmffhorn,
whilst those of General Tscherniebeff were at
• Ueltzen.

In a reconnoisance made by the'Prince of Eck
-
=hi, eighty Cossacks defeated two squadrons of
cavalry, and took one officer and thirty chasseurs
of the. 20 regiment prisoners. Thedesertion in
the French army was so great, that General
Tscherniebelf had formed an enth•e battalion of
infantry out of the deserters. • The Russian pa-
troles were continually banging on the rear'of the
enemy.
