BitiiviF,tv, 'APRIL 23 —We have, the following
offieial report from the head-quarters of Cohnt
Benningsen,' Commander in Chief of the Russian
Polish army :
PINNEBERG, APRIL 2I .—Though such great and
Amazing events have for some days attracted 'the
attention and interest of all Europe, the syinpa-
thy in the fate of the unfortunate city of Ham-
burgh, so far from being diminished by them, is
rather increased. • Count Benningsen, Coinniatf-
der in Chief of the besieging'army, considers: it as
his
,duty to lay before the public a faithful account
of his proceedings from the moment that the spirit
of peace and reconciliation seemed again to smile
on the so long distreSsed and conflicting •nations.
Itnmediately on receipt of the official accounts
of the taking of Paris, and of the declarations of
the French-nation and its Constitutional Authori-
ties against NapOleint „Buonaparte, Count Ben-
- ningsen thought it necessary to write to the Mar-
shal Prince of Ecknauld, keit!' his own hand, alet-
ter, reprCsenting, that under such a change of cir-
cumstances, and with the near prospect of a ge-
neral peace, he ought not to be -guilty of the
blood that might yet be wantonly shed before the
walls of llainburgh. The Marshal thanked him
for the communication of time news, without any
particular expression of his sentiments. - '
Soon the expected Courier from Paris arrived
with dispatches from the Provisional Government
to the Prince of Eckmuhl, and Count Benningsen '
intended to have them delivered to him yesterday,
with a letter front himself, by Colonel Von Busch
Munich and Prince Gallitzin, Captain of the
Guard of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia.=
The documents published its- the newspapers
must have prepared the Prince of Eckmuhl for
the contents of the dispatch. The Provisional
Government lays before him a representation of the
late decisive events in France, and calls upon him
,to follow- the example of the first characters in the
nation, and to do what the safety and deliverance df
his country require. Upon this the Marshakthonght
proper to return a written answer, by a Colonel
commanding- in the out-works, that the Emperor
and King Napoleon, his master, wohli4 not send
him any orders by Russian Officers, and tilitt, con,
sequently, -lie could not
,accept and open. the d is-
-patches. Meantime, in spite of the ,most
police, the truth spreads in the city and oat-works
of liamburgh. - The soldiers and Officers desert
wheneVer they can find a. way. The Marshal 'takes
away the rest of the bullion from the Bank, coins,
silver, and exchanges money ; and the sale wh.eb
has beguu of immense magazines has reduced the
first necessarie,of life below the
note of the Olaerver here remarlis, that theLeatiM4 .
