LON DON GAZETTE EXTRAORDINARY.

Dispatches, of which the following are extracts, have been re-
cciv6l by Viscount (..4.thmv.itt:Autt from hie Excellency the,
FAO of AnEaur.etc, and from Lignt.-General the lion. Sir
C. IV. STE %V FIT

Extract, 'of a Pispatch from the tart 'of Aberdeen to Lord
dated Cornotau, Oct. b, 1813.
rrlte army has advanced-in a direct line towards
Leipsic,. near Whielt. town the head-quarters of
Prinee Seliwartzenberg nee established. The
Prince Royal and General Blucher having advanc-
ed towards the same point, the allied forces have
needy effected their Junction : . a ricteat;,, there-
fore, is draWn'across this part ol' SaxOny, extend-
ia/..; from Dessau to Marienburg ort the Bohemian
frontier. In the mean time, General Benuigsen„
with the corps of COlforedo, has driven the ene-
my from his entrench:lents at Gieshubel, and has
advanced towards Drestlett,on the great road from
Toplitz.
The actual position and intentions of Biwa-
larte are entirely unknown. A strong force, not
ess than 50,000 men, is opposed to Prince
fillwartzenbarg ; and the general belief is, that
Buonaparte himself lr is made a rapid movement
%rich the mass cif his army to Rita& Gen. Blucher,
before his junction with the Prince Royal is com.
vleted. Be this as it may, it is not likely that
any partial advantage will materially improve his
prospects, 'or render the ultimate success of the
Allies 'more doubtful. His communication with
France being totally destroyed—his army in con-
siderable distress--his magazines nearly exhaust-.
ed, and the country in which he is, utterly with-
out the wails of replenishing them, he must
shortly find it necessary to break through the cir-
cle which has been drawn around him-: iii this
attempt he may probably succeed, but there is
every reason to hope that it ,will be accompanied
by the destruction of a great part of his army.
Full justice is done to the military talents and
able conihinati6n:i of the Prince Marshal ; had
lie been prudent.and circumspect in his move-
ments, we, should nut, have /beett placed in the
formidable and commanding attitude which we
are now einthled.tti assume.
,S. By intelligence received this morning, it
appears that Prince
,Schwartzenherg, with the
main boclyof his army, is at Chemnitz and in the
neighbourhood. Duonaparte left Dresden on the
7th with the Xing of Saxony and his family, and
is atlinehliit, where his army is chiefly assem-
bled, General-Bennigsen has advanced toDres-
den; in which it said Buonaparte has left but a
feeble (,arrison, consisting, according to report,
of not more than 3000 men.

Extract of a DiOpatch from Lieut.-General the lion. Sits
Charles titewart, K. B. to Vi►cnunt Castlereagh, dated
14ml-quartet* Prinee Iloyal:of Sweden, Rottenburg, Oc-
tober 11, 1813.

In conformity to your Lordship's instructions,
being sufficiently recovered from my v.:fonnti• to
travel, I left the head-quarters of the allied army
at Toplitz, on the 31i instant, and arrived at those
nr the Crown rvince of Sweden at Itautopst , near
Zt..3.441, Bth. Tlomotmo hasfolly ,put
yoor Lorciship in possession of the interesting
litary imelligrence to that period. I have now to
inform you, that, after the brilliant passage "of
the Elbe by' General Blucher at Elstcr,, in which
both decision and judgment have been pre-emi-
nently displayed, and the consequent passage of
'the same river by the Prince Royal's army at the
Toints, of Rosslatt and Acken, his Royal Highness
.the Crown Prince conceived a movement of the
Nviole allied force to the left bank of the Saale
would force the enemy either to a general battle,
or would be the must effectual mode to embarrass
and harass his retreat, if he should determine up-
on a measure Which. the combined movements of,
the armies of Bohentia, Silesia, and of the North
-of Germany on his flanks, and on all his comma-
nicationi, seemed to render so indispensably ne-
cessary..
Napoleog, it seems, had manoeuvred from
prodel, according to reports, with a large corps'
of cavalry on the 'right, and all his -infantry on
the left bank of•theElbe, as far down.as Archlau:
a strong demonstration of 20 or 30,000 men was
• made from 'organ towards the point of Elster,
on the Sth, wh2re QC:neva! Blucher passed, pro-
bably with a design of menacing that General,
and forcing hies to rer.itss the raver: The bold
determination of the Allies was not, however to
be arrested b demonstration, end the whole
army of Blocher, being now: in elotke cornmuni-
nation with that of 'the Prince Royal, the former
marc!led from Duben oat Jesnitz, on thc 9th, and
passed the Molds ; and the Crown Prince con-
centrated his forces between Zorbig,. Radegast,
and Bitterfeld. The enemy, according to at:-
counts., appeared now to be collected about
lenberg and °Schatz, between the Militia and the
Elhe, _

On' the 10th, General, Blucher tooYek front

purpose.
General Bulow, with his corps d'armile was in
like tnanner to pass at Wettin ; Crittnenti

General Talienzien will be assisted by all tlir land-

to join him.
Information now arrived that Mum.; with his
Cossacks, were at. Pet ati ; thinenits l'“eist and
Wittgenstein, with -the advance of the grand army
of Doliemia approaching Altenburg, and Oar com-
munication scented to be completely eStablished,
behind the'rear of the French army. •

Information was still vague of the movements
of the enemy ; but accounts were brought in on
the evening of the 10th, that be was. movilq,
troops born ~the different points of Latzer,. anti.
Wurtzen to Leipsie, and it was added that Buona.
•parte was expected to arrive there on the 10th.
His.. force between Dresden and Leipsie, exclusive
of garrisons, at the highest calculation. may be
estimated at
.180,00 "men ; that of the Silesian
army at 65,000, and that of the Prince itoyal ut
(30,000, with 600 pieces of 'artillery ; and it is
impossible to see a tiner army, or one more fully
equipped in all its parts.
By the reports received thiS day, General Pia-
toW, with'all his Cossacks, has arrived at Lutzen,
having taken some hundredsofprisoners at Weisen-
leis, and. is come 'ilea. complete communicaiinu
with the advance: cif GCHCraI Woronzotr s Cossacks
Platow reports the assembling of the
enemy's army round
,Leipsie. We have certain
accounts that the army of Bohemia is now between
Altenburg tond Chemnitz, and Genera Bcnnig:en,
with the Austrian division of Colloredo, which has'
been joined to him,. is meditating a demonstration
towards Dresden,

F. S. General Blinber was not enabled, by the
bricl:4emot being complete, to pass at Wettin, but
pioteeded, to Halle, where he has pns i 1. General
Bulow has not passed this day, but the rest of the
allied army is on the left bank of the Seale.
