BRESLAU,DEc. 25.—1 n consequence of the sortie
of the 6th inst. attempted by our garrison, a Lieu-
_tenant Jo" Triro,-;'s regiment of infantry. was killed
without the wails. He was a gallant Officer, and
evinced such uncommon bravery in the presence of
the Enemy on that occasion, that they decorated his
body with a crown of laurel, and sent it on the fol-
lowing day into the fortress, preceded -by a Flag of
Truce. The. Commander, of the regiment THILE,
Colonel STROTHA, died during the siege of an in:-
flarnmation of the lungs. The garrison, on account
, of the paucity of their numbers, were under the
'ne-
cessity of doing so much duty, that it. was astonish-
ing how the soldiers were, able to support them-
selves at their posts. Companies of the inhabitants,
7 however, attended upon the soldiers, supplying
them with warm vieluals and drink, as it was im-
possible for the latter to-leave the walls for a nit>.
rnent,
_in older to ,purchase.or _cook their viduals.—
Besides all this, the citizens made subscriptions of
money, which they divided among the soldiers, in
order to encourage them to make -a gallant re-
sistance. . During the Enemy's attack on the Ohlau
Gate, in the-night of the 22d and 23d of:December,
the artillerymen who were posted there displayed so
much :bravery, that a company' of young. Ladies pre-
sentectto their Colonel a sum of money to be di-
vided amongst his gallant men..,

EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER FROM ALTONTA,

A few days ago . a Gerniten traveller of distinc-.‘
tion, arrived at Hamburgh from Russia and-Poland;
who publicly related, that the 'Letter which the Mi-
nister of War, BERTHIER, lately wrote to the Ern-,
press, JOSEPHINE, contained nOltewg of fresh vic-
tories, but only the tidings of NAPOLEON being in.
perfe& good health ; he 'added, that he knew the.
French had been defeated since the 26th by the
Russians.

" This declaration induced General MicitAub,;
the 'present Military Governor of Hamburgh, to
send for the stranger, and interrogate him privately,
The latter stri&ly adhered to all he had said ; anrcts.
a proof of his speaking the truth, he fi-eely offerek
to become a hostage to the General till he should re-:
ceive the confirmation ;' the latter, however, Conseil-.
ous
,of the traveller's integrity, politely dismissed',
him, with the serious request never to speak of such
things for the future.

"On the 20th instant, a Lubec Vessel arrived:-in
that Port from Riga, when the French Command-,
ant sent immediately a number of Soldiers on bOara
to seize and examine all Letters and Papers, and to
announce to the Captain, Crew, and Passengers,
that their 'mentioning any thing contrary to the in-
terest of the French-or het'Allies would be punidied.
with.death."

MAGDEBURGII, JAN. )7.—Our hospitals are fIA
of sick ; the forced marches in such a season, and
in "such bad weather, have inundated us with several
disorders, and particularly dysenteries.
• The French Authorities at Berlin have just got
us an order to press the payment of the ContJl'
butions.

CONSTANTINOPLE, DEC. IL—According to Let'
ters from Bucharest, the Russian Troops are momen'
tarily eNpeded in that City; the number of those
who have passed the Dniester are reckoned "A
30,000 men. Gen; MICHELSON, who commands
this Corps of the_Army, has under him Generals
kful,usEas and Prince DOLGOEUCKY.

BERLIN, J. 40.7-By advises from Vienna', of
the 29th inst. we are assured that the Ambassadoo
of RusSia and Prussia, at that Court, have in cod'
Gen given in a Note, in which they represent tbat.
as it is to be feared that the Emperor of the Freacll
will. endeavour to restore the Kingdom of Poland, !t
would be the interest of Austria to make a coumloo
cause with those two Powers. They, however, rti.
ceived for answer a positive assurance that AustO
would continue neutral during the whole of the P'

SATURDAY, JANUARY 31, 1807.

Tnis morning, ateigh t o'clock, the Hon. Mr. hut~'
Agt.t. arrived at the Foreign Office. He arrived
se
Tatmouth, in the Sparrow Gun-brig, from pantzic.
after the arrival of that Gentleman
ikpott.was circulated, that he brought an account of
the defeat of the Russians. We are happy to have
it in our power positively to contradi& that re'
port. Mr. BURRELL left Dantzic on the 27th
ultimo, and his voyage was considerably retarded
in consequence of the Sparrow having struck
on a rock near Bornholm. VAQua.„,.+63 date
of that Gentleman's departure from Dantzi
it is obvious that he 'could not have received
any account of the -Battles • which took place
between Ostrolenska and the Vistula on the 26th
December and the following days, corsequently,
the intelligence which he has brought can neither,
ciAigim-. nor contradict the accounts which bay,
been already received.
