chewing how the battle of Wagram was lost. The
principal blaMe
‘is thr•own upon the Archduke JOHN,
who did not advance with sufficient celerity from
Presburg, to cover the left wing of the main army.

We have authority to stare, in reference to-an ad-
vertisement which has lately appeared in 6orneof the
daily Papers, for receiving proposals for the pur-
chase of arms to be exported to Spain, on account
of Mr. Cochrane Johnstone, that 'it is not in the
contemplation of his Majesty's Government to
furnish licenses to this effect, on the application Of

We learn, by letters froth St. Petershurgh to the
end of last month, that 87.vesselsr were frozen up at
that port and Riga.. The se,verity of the weather
having a' little abated, a vast number of people 'were
employed in .cutting a way for them theatigh't he ice,
and great hopes were entertaitied _that.the attempt
Would prove successful. The accounts'ol the subkr-
vienCe of -Russia and. Denmark to the projeas and
policy of the French, contained in 'these letters; are
truly effli&ing. By both these Governments the least
suggestion of the ,representatives of the Corsican is
instantly adopted and aaed.upon, as if it were aniin-
perial mandate.' ; Very lately a list of 57 ships was
transmitted to the Danish Government troth Paris,
the cargoes of which were stated as being liable to
confiscation; under the pretensions bf the Berlin and
Alilan Decrees.
We stated' on Saturday, that John Baker, John
Lee, and Robert Blake; who had,been deteded in the
Piazza, Covent-garden, when ; the company were
coming out of the Theatre on Tuesday evening, at-
terhpting to pick pockets, had been sent by the Ma-
gistrates at Bow-street, on board the tender. On their
being taken there, •the Captain rejected Baker, on
account of his learning_ that he was one who was
charged with having broken open the Countess Mor-
ton's house. He will, however; not go unpunished,
.as the 'Magistrates have cobvicted him under the Po-
lice Ad as a rogue and vagabond; he was: cbairnit-
