" FINCKENSTEIN", APRIL 19.—The 'viaory of Ey-
lau having. fruStratedi all the plans which the enemy
had formed against the Lower Vistula, has enabled us
to surround Dantzic, and to commence the siege of
that Fortress. :But it was necessary to•draw the bat-
tering artillery from the Fortresses 'of Silesia and
along thekider, 'so that it had. to come upWards. of
Fon leagues, through' a"country in which ther6 are
Igo roads. 'This: difficulty is'now got over, and a part
of that artillery is already'arrived. One hundred
Oleces of cannon .are,now,on.theiv:way. from .Stettin,
pustrin, Glogau, and'Breslau, and /in a few days we
shall be provided with every thing necessary.

The Prussian General ic.A LKiEUTiI has the coat-
i-nand at 1../Intzic. The garrisOn consists of 14,000
Prussians, and. aopo Russians. The. inundations and
mar*!les, 'several-lines of Fortifications., and the Fort
of Weix,eltnunde, have rendered it: difficult to sur-
round the;Fortress..

" The annexed Report of the siege of Dantzic will
shew what progress had been ,inade.to the 17th inst.

In the beginning of May, an Army of Obser-
vation, consisting or 50,000 French and Spanish
Troops, will 'l3e asserrible-d on the Elbe. Whilst
Russia had asserohled in Poland nearly the whole of
her troops, there is only a part of the French m4ilary
force in that country. This, however, is a conse-
quence of the great difference which exsts between
the essential strength of the two countries.. rne
500,000 Russians, which the writers of newspapers
made to march to the right and again to • the left,

without the least mention of its extensive 4eserty
and Uncultivated distrias. •

It is said, that the Guards of the Emperor of

Russ have reaehed the Army. They will See, on
the first Meeting, whether the' imperial Guard is
annihilated,' as the Enemy's Generals have assured.
That Guard is now' more numerous than eve], and

Exchisive of the bridge.thrown across the Na-
rew, another is forthing on piles between Warsaw
and Praga ; the work is in a very forward state. The
bridges on, piles are stronger ttod more serviceable
than those of boats. 'Although it is very laborious
to construct such bridges across a river of 400 rods
in breadth, it is renderodyasy through the' skill and
aCtivity of the Officers under whose direellan it is
performed, and from the abundance of timber.

trtgted to him relative to the wants of the army.'
" Finckenstein, where the Emperor has fixed his
residence, in order to have his head-quarters nearer
to 'the station of the army, is a very fine Castle, built
by M. DE FINCKENSTEIN, Governor of FREDERIC 11.
and at present belongs to M. Volg DonNA, Great
Marshal of 'the Court of Prussia.

SEVENTY-SECOND BULLETIN OF THE GRAND

ARMY.

FINCKENSTE-111, APRIL e3.—The operations cf
Marshal MoaTiza have had the desired effect. The
Swedes were, so. inconsiderate as to. cross the River
Peene, to advance upon Anclarn and Dernmin, and
to move towards Passewaik. On the 16th, before
break of day, Marshal MoRTIER assembled his
troops, advanced from Passewalk on the road to An
clam, overthreW the posts at Belling and Ferdinands,
hoff, took 400 prisoners, and two pieces of cannon,
entered Anclam at the same time with the enemy,
and made himself master of the bridge on the
Peene.
" The column of,the Swedish General CARDELL
was cnt off., It remained at Uckermunde when we
were already at Anclam. The Swedish ,General in'
ARMFELDT has been wounded by a grape
shOt. All the enemy's magazines are taken.
" The colurnn of General CARDELL, which has
been cut off, was attacked on the 17th, by the Ge-
neral of Brigade VEAU, near Uckermunde, when the
enemy lost three pieces of cannon, and 500 men,
Which were taken. The rest escaped by get-
ting on board the gun-boats in the Haff. Two
more pieces of cannon, and too' men were taken,
near Demmin. •

" Baron VON ESSEN, who commands the Swe..,
dish 'army during the absence of General AR Al FE LEIT,
proposed an Armistice to General MORTI ER, inforin-
ing him, that the King had granted
,him a special
Tower to conclude the same.. A peace, or even an
armistice, granted to Sweden, would accomplish the
most sanguine wishes of the Emperor, who has al..
ways been very.reluetant to carry on a war against a
generous and brave nation, which, upon local and.
political grounds, is the friend of France. Must
Swedish blood flow, either to prote& or to subvert.
the Ottoman Empire ? Is it to flow for maintaining
the balance, or for supporting the slavery, of the
seas ? What has Sweden to fear from France No-
-thitig. What has she to fear from Russia ) Every
thing. These reasons are too evident not to prompt
an enlightened Cabinet, and a Nation which pos-
sesses clearness of mind and independence of 'opi-
nion, to put a speedy stop to the war.
" Immediately after the battle of Jena the Em-
peror made known his desire to restore the ancient
relations between Sweden and France. 'These first
overtures were made to the Swedish Minister at
HaMburgh, but reje&ed. The Emperor constantly
direaed his Generals to treat the Swedes as friends
with whom we are at variance, and with whom we
shall soon be reconciled, from the nature of 'things.
Behold the true interests of both Nations. If' they
did us any harm, they would regret it ; and we, on
our part, should wish to repair the wrongs which we
have done them- The. interests of the State at last
rise superior to all differences and petty quarrels.'
These were the Emperor's own words, in his Or-
ders. •

" Animated by such sentiments, the Emperor or-
dered the military operations for the siege of Stral-
.sund to be'discontinuekand the mortars and cannon
which were sent from Stettin for that purpose to be
sent back. He wrote to General MoRTIER in the
following wordl I already regret what has been
done.. I am sorry that the fine suburb of Stralsund
is burnt. Is it our business to hurt Sweden ? This
is a mere dread'. It is our business to prote&, not
to do ber any injtry. In the latter, let us be.as mo-
derate as possible: 'PropoSe to the Governor of Stral-
sund an Armistice, or a cessation of hostilities, in or-
der to ease the burden, and lessen the calamities of a
war, which I consider as wicked, because it is impo-
litie.' 'On the Bth, the Armistice was concluded 'be-
tween Marshal MoRTIER and Baron Von Essgtc.—

Twenty-three Swedish OtEceri, Prisoners. of -War,
set out yesterday on their way to Franee An
Qfficer has been appointed to accompany them,
that they might not experience any difficulties on
the route. 'They appear satisfied with :.the distinc-
tion with which they are treated. They enjoyed
great liberty when at Berlin. They condu6ted them-
selves like men of honour, bearing arms, and their
parole was sufficient to'allow them to have many com-
forts which their situation admitted of. The Stvedes.
never aEt contrary to their word, and it is known
that their King would not permit apy of his sub
jetas to depart from the paths of honbur. ;Jot/I,s,
XII. said, that if honour was banished from the'

BANKS OF TILE ELBE, MA 4.—Letters "from
Leipsic and Vienna state, that the English Fleet; re-
inforced by the Russian Vesselsebas again passed thR
Dardanelles. According to, official report the Rus-
sians have made a fruitless attack against Giurgewo,
and have raised the siege of that place.
VIENNA, APRIL 22.—The following is the snb-,
stance of the business proposed_to the Hungarian
Diet on the toth. • The States, in 1802, having ac-
knowledged the :necessity of raising a sufficient land
force in the course of three years, and that period
having expired, his Majesty recommends it to hiS,
faithful States, to take the necessary measures for
putting this force upon a proper footing.. The ex-
pence for support of the military having necessarily
increased, his Majesty wishes the States to take this
into their consideration, and to increase the contri-
butions in proportion. The levy en masse, another
infallible 'means of defence, which circumstances
prevented from being called 'out last war; his Ma,'
jesty requires to be put in such a state of readiness
as to be called out upon the shortest notice possible,
whenever it may be found necessary. .The Trea-
sury haVing suffered considerably, in consequence
,of almost 20 years incessant war, it is necessary to
find out new means for replenishing it. And as the
. support of justice contributes much,to the prosperity
of the Country, his Majesty recommends the eSta
meat of a Court to take cognizance of all.
affitirs, relative to Bills of Exchange. The States'
are also recommended to take measures for bet-'
tering the condition of the poor,, for employing
them, &c.
We are assured that the Archduke CHARLES
has Tanned the plan for a military conscription
through all the Austrian States exactly upon 'the
French model. All the youth in the Austrian Mo-
narchy, not excepting the 'Nobles, are to be sub-
je& to this new, law. , The number of conscripts
for each year_ will be settled by law ; but' the youth
of good families, the Nobles, &c. as soon as they'
understand the nature of the Service in a cornpe-
.tent degree, are to be promoted to the rank of
Officers.

AUGSZURGH, APRIL 22.—1 n this city, where we
receive news from Constantinople thtough two
channels, viz. over-land by way of Hungary, and
by sea from Trieste, we are acquainted with parti-
culars of which the Newspapers make no mention.
Hence we learn, that the Russians have attempted'
a landing upon the island of Candia, but were re-..
pulsed with considerable loss.---From Constantinople
we.also learn, that the Grand Signior has been to the
principal' Mosque with the greatest solemnity, and
there laying his hand upon the Koran, had. sworn
rather to die than deviate from the alliance and
friendship of his brother NAPOLEON Having re-.:
turned to his Palace, he dispatched Couriers to Syria,:
Natolia, Arabia, and Egypt; ordering the Gov4rnors to
declare war against the English, and take posses-
sion of their property. He has also ordered the:
Beys to exert themselves to the utmost to disap.;:.
point the designs of the Enemy at Alexandria.—
The orders for seizing English-property in Natolia •
have been executed with such dispatch,' that • the
GoVernors of Stuyrna and'Salimica have already sent.
.word that the seizures amount to upwards of eighty •
millions. The Turkish Fleet is ordered to attack
the three Russian Ships of the Line which are in the
Black Sea.

BERLIN, APRIL 28.—For some time after •Col-
berg was invested, a natnter of the garrison shewed
themselves in several places, particularly near Ru-
genwalde. These troops, however, are at length
driven into the place and for more than a week
past the Polish General HENRY has closely invested
C(.Win with a numerous cavalry and'some infantry.
According to latei accounts, Colberg is warply can-
nonaded.

Protu Neisse, in Silesia, we learn, that the bom-
bardment bad excited a disposition in the Com-
mandant to capitulate ; but that his' Prussian Ma-
iesty bad issued the stri&est orders to all the Com-
mandants of pikes still in his poirer, to detend
themselves to. the last extremity►, without any co,n-
uideratifn of the inhal?itaats.
