the French host be reduced ivinni this fragmeurof
an tinny thirst stand hi their way. Indeed it is
itot clear that more than the advanced troops of
the Allies were able to get upon the enemy's line
of march and iihpede his flight. They hurtled from
Brannan upon Frankfort ; BUONAPAttIq?.i 'with
greater cause for baste, hurried front Leipsic
'for the same place, and seems just to have
outstripped his adversaries about Poste et
demi, and not even that much without a severe
brush, from which, notwithstanding all his brag.:
gardism, we do nut believe he will be able.,to
scue one half of that part of his force which had
kept pace With him from the Stale to the vicinity
of the Maya. The actions described took place
between Gelnhansen and Hanau, which is on the
Mayn, and about mid-way between the former
and Frankfort, from the 29th to the 31st, and.the
Allies, who, we are told, in the, first instance,
4, were in complete route" on the '3oth,, and
afterwards that they " retired at break of day"
on the 31st, arc said to have taken the direction
of Aschaffenhurg, which is itself no.t a day's march
up the Mayn from Hanau, su that-this retreat has
all the appearance of a lateral movement upon
their own approaching `reinforcements, in conse-
quence of the accumulation of the enemy, as lie
was joined by his rearmost 'followers ft omit Leipsig.

In the afternoon of the 31st BuowArAcTa got
to Frankfort ; but there was, no safety for him in
a place which has long ere, this been taken pos.:-
session of by-the Allies.—liven at Mentz he did
not stop long ; and we learn, that, anxious
to put the strongly fortified line of the
Rhine between him and hiS pursuers, he was
employed all day in defiling his troops, o'er the
bridge.--Here be boasts of • having collected
19000 ;nen ; hut how many of these are front
the neighbourhood cat Leipsig he does not state.
We believe not manv.----This, force, .swelled upon
paper to a round number, is- the aggregate of the
whole French soldiery in Germany gathered to-
gether, fugitives with their teader, fugitives from
Cassel, fug4ives from Franconia, fugitives from
Hanover, fugitives front every (patter.

At a late hone this forenoon, we received Hali-
fax Papers to the 19th ult. from' which we have
eXtracted the whole detaP% of the mischance on
Lake Erie, and as much other matter as our time
and limits permitted. We have also a iass of
AmeriCan Papers, thc chief contents of which we
shall publish to-Morrow. There is no foundation
for the rumour of the defeat of Sir J. Vita—Fort
George is, on thecontrary, about ,to he evacuated.
The advises received by Government from Sir
GEORGS PREVOST from Canada, are dated the 25th
August, and contain the account of General Paoc-
TOR'S unsuccessful attempt upon Fort Sandusky,
in which the• British loss amounted to twenty,five
killed, forty wounded, and twenty-five missing.

Extracts from the Spanish Papers will be
found' in a preceding colonin. They communi-
cate no military facts-of interest, but the natant
concltision drawn from the review of his whole
line by Lord WELLINGTON, on the 2Sth, when
the instant fall of Pamplona was certain, inclinei
us immediately to expect some enlarged opera-
tions. :tirbetber the attention of the gallant
Martinis will, in the first instance, be directed to
-Catalonia, or whether, by a forward movement
into France, he will hasten tine evacuation of that
Province, by putting tine occupants in fear of be-
ing entirely enclosed, it is not in Our poWer to
but of this we may safely rest assured,
anticipate ;
that as the fall of Pamplona has ptit it iw his
posiver to make his own election of the course
which may seem to him most effectual, he will,
in whatever he may undertake, do that which will
most promote the peculiar interests of the coin-
men cause in Spain, and the general interests of
Europe.

The CHANCELLOR of, the EXCHE4VER has told
those Gentlemen who propose bidding for the
Loan, that the Contractors for the last are to
hare the preference, on certain conditions ; he has
sealed up his proposals, and if his terms are not
acceded to, then he will take biddings from both
parties.

Lord MELVILLE held a Levee at the Admiralty
yesterday, when several Naval Officers had inter-
views.

By advices from the Bahamas, of 25th Sep-
tember, it pears, that the Indians in the neigh--
hood of New Orleans love sot prised and defeated
the Amerieans,
with the
loss
of about 300 men,
the forame having 01,taiited their supplies of am-
tnunition front tic: Spanilrils in Pets.icolactin-
trary to the treaty between Spain'and the ffnite4
States, Iu consequence, about 900 Americaos
were assembling to March against Pensacola, of
which they were expected to gain easy possession.
It is also said, that the Insurgentn lia i obtained
the superiority again in Amelia Island, and that
much confusion prevailed there. The Americans
were reported to be mar Ching to dispossess them.
A letter from an Officer-of Artillery lately sta-
tioned at Andave, states, that' he had been ordor-
ed to proceed front thence to 'Tafalla, to accom-
pany a brit; tle of Hussars to which he is attach-
ed. Front this circumstance it may be conjectur-
ed, that a force is praceeding through Nwvarre to
the E4stern Pyrenees, to dislodge the enemy in
that part 'of the country.

but that which he considered its having produced
leis death; was inflicted on the head, apparently
With a sharp instrument. Ile stated, that the de-
ceased bad not conducted himself with perfect re-
golarity during his illness, tits he had conversed
with his friends, and wrote letters, and had refus-
ed to have on leeches on the day they were re-
comtuended, but that they had been applied on
the day following. He did not, however, think
that these deviations led to his death, which took
place on the evening of the 12th of the same
month. On examining the head, after his decease,
witness found the outer table a the skid! had been
fractured; and within the head, kn. extravasation
of lymph, and other marks of inflammation of the
membranes or the brain. These appearances he
considered to Lave been in consequence of the
wound of the head,
.and the death of Lieutenant
Cadenski was to he attributed thereto.

Mr. Cousens (late a Lieutenant in his Majesty's
22d dragoons) deposed ; that on the evening of
fith November, he dined At the mess of that regi-
.; ment, with about twelve other members ; that
about
„half-past eight, all the officers retired,
except Lieutenants Murray and Taunton, of the
of the 22d dragoons, Lieutenant Cadenski and
himself; that be sat near the centre of the table
opposite the deceased ; that next to Lieut. Catlett-
ski sat Lieut. Murray, but having a chair between
them. That at the lower end of the table, on the
sameside as the witness, the prisoner was seated.
Witness heard some conversation between the de-
ceased and Lieutenant l‘lorray, relative to a bit-
ream belOnging to the latter, which the former
had in his possession ; but as witness was reading
a Newspaper, he paid no particular attention.
thereto, until he heard the deceased say, address-
ing hiniself to Lieutenant Murray,," if aoy of
;your people come into my compound, T. will kick
them out."--The deceased repeated his assertion,
and added, I will kick you, Sir, (still addressing
Lieut. Murray) or any tither-officer of. his Majes-
ty's. 22d light dragoons, if you or they come hose
my compound." (The deceased he represented
us having been noticed by several officers to-have
tome intoxicated to the mess, and that he was
'very drunk at this time ; to which cause he at-
tributes Lieut. Murray's not having given him
any answer) Upon this, Lieut. 'Taunton advanc-
ed front his seat, and standing by the witness and
opposite to Lieut. Cadcuski, said, 4. You say, Sir,
you will kick any officer of his Majesty's 22d dra-
goons, who may come into your coMpound, do'
you mean yon would kick rue out ?"---To this
Lick. Cadeuski replied, " I was not addressing
.myself to you, Sir, and I wish to have northing to
say to you."—Lieut. Taunton, not satisfied with
this. reply, repeated his question twice, •and as
often received the same answer; he then said, I
must insist, Sir, on, _a direct answer to my (pies-
lion.---To this the deeeased replied, " you be d---d,
Sir."--liettf. Taunton, striking his fist upon the
table, said, " You must immediately meet me
across the table," and aftera short pause, added,
", if you don't you area coward."--;-At this Word
sLieut.Cailenski rose, and exclaiming, "A coward !
a coward! I will spew you whether I atn
coward," dreW los sword, (Which was a small
Cavalry sword, the same as worn by officers
of the 22d dragoons) and ran to the end of the
table, and staggering round it, adVanced towards
the? spot where Lieutenant Taunton was stand-
ing.-Virituess withdrew his eye from thedeceased,
order, to urge Lieut. Murray to hasten and pre-
vent the conflict he anticipated, as the witness
'was unable to' do so, having a severely sprained
tinkle. Owing to this, he cannot say which party
struck' the first blow, but when he turned round,
he saw the deceased retreating towards the end
of the room, and Lieutenant Tauntoo following
him ; the conflict (which WitneSS Statei to have
'been or very mont6ntitcy duration) was nOW put
an end to, by the ,iOterferenee of Lieut. Murray,
and the arrival at the spot of, Lietit. Oakes; the
fstEcce of tlw day. The latter took the 'swOrds
the parties, phteed theht in, arrest, and sent for
the surgeon of the Regiment. On his eross-ex.-
amination by Mr. Compton, he states that lie
terpreted the words used by Lieut. Taunton, to
'have been a challenge to fight with pistols, not
with swords. He did not hear the deceased use
the word "scoundrel" to the prisoner; admits
that the prisoner told Lietst, Oakes
.he had been
ealletf "Scoundrel," and that he, the witness, did
, ,
not •then say that the Word had not peen used.—
Witness, however, persists, that that expression
never reached his ear froth the deceased ; fur-
ther says, that knowing that Lieut. Catlenski was
drunk; he ahould not at that time have noticed
any msultrog expressions that Might' have fallen
front

Lieut. Murray, the second witness, gives nearly-
the sanse.necount of the business as -Mr. eouscns,
but adds, that the deeeased std he would kick
tiny ogieer of his Majesty's 22d dragoons, or any
other Gentleman that shoUld enter Ids roinpOund.
Ie fin titer stated, that when Lieut Cadenski left

-would have stopped; him butifre be;past hint ; but

Licht; Oakes deposed, that he vhis orderly rit

sident of the mess during,dinner. that it Nvollid
have been his duty to have prevented any ricnims
behaeiour ; that he did not notice atiy inertia eet-
ness on the part of the deceased, nor dial be liso
tice intoxivated. Witness left the room
early, being orderly officer; that on returning
from his rounds, and entering the mess-com-
pound, he heard the clashing ofAwords, and saw
two officers pass the door of the rat's-roOill with-
in-side, but with such velocity, that he could not
distinguish-who they were. Ile alighted from his
horse, and, on entering the room, saw Licut.
Cadenski leaning against the end of the'table,
wounded and bleeding, and exclaiming in an in-
coherent manner, " I am no coward, I am no
coward." At this time the. prisoner began to
into " a justification of his conduct, and bad pro-
ceeded so far as to state, that be bad 'teen called
" a scoundrel," when the tvitness desired hint to
stop, as his duty was to put him in arrest ; their
justification or otherwise, must be determined else-
where. 'llia this was said sin the presence of
Lieut. Murray and Mr. Cousens, and that neither
of them contradicted the Assertion of the pri-
soner, " that he had been called a scoundrel."
That he, then took the swords of Lieutenants
Taunton and Cadenski, placed thent under arrest,
tied up the head of the latter to stop the effu-
sion of blood, and sent for the surgeon of the
regiment.

The evidence on the part of the prosecution
being closed, the prisoner read a written defence,
of which the following is tlre material part.

DEFENCE.

"From the serious • nature of the charge for
which I inn now summoned as a criminal to ap-
pear at.the Bar of J twice,- my feelings, are unusu-
ally agitated by the melancholy reflection of hav-
ing been perhaps the cause of the destruction at
one Of my fellow creatures ; hut if any considera.
Lion in tnitigation of the crime of homicide can be
at at any time all Owed; I hope a humane and li-
beral Court will be induced, to admit something in
extenuation, upon a recapitulation of the evi-
dences that have appeared on this occasimm. Irt
now being .permitted time privilege of being tried by
one 'of the most perfect: and inesttinahle of all hu-
man tribmittis, it British trial by jury, I shall
entreat the attention of the Gentlemen composing
it but for a short time. It has been inculcated
the mind of every good subject as if moral duty,
or at least'ought to have been' .more particularly
in the higher orders of society, that he respect and
keep the laws and ordinances of his country
; but, however highly the consummate
justice and wisdom of English Jurisdiction deserves
this principle should be maintained, there is still a
portion of his Majesty's subjects left exposed to in-
evitable calamity; that is entirely confined to that
peculiar class of omen, in abiding by the general rule
laid do w n, I mean gentlemen embracing the military
and naval profession. I shall not myself presume
here to hazard an opinion hoW fir a soldier may be
justified to act in defence of that reputation, upon
which alone must depend his Very existence ; but
as it is out of the reach and-power of the Legisla--
titre of the country to make provision for that
which the world Will ever esteem in the military
character more dear than life itself, nasnely'repu-
tation and honour, with respect to so large a pro-
portion of the subjects of Great Britain, and per-
haps may be said, not the least useful, or deserv-
ing of their country's regard, it will, I should
imagine, be admitted;where no attempt has been
made to remove an evil, from which every other
race of men are exempted, that the aggressor is
the only offender. Thus it is, that the, Soldier is
driven to the dreadful alternative of becoming
either a wretched outcasti deprived of tbnoppor.
tnnity of serving his country, forsaken by all his
friends, lost to every society, and perhaps for
ever doomed to .drag on a miserable existence, in
infamy, penury, anti want—or to fall a sacrifice
to his own determined conduct, or a victim to the
law ! Whilst the itsassin, and the, duellist by
trade and occupation,- are real objects ofAhe ven-
geance of God and mankind, ought not every eon..
sideration to be made for that delicacy of senti-
ment, and strict sense of bonostr, which belong
to the post of the military--ever eager to shed
their blood in defence of those very laws, of
which they ate themselves the protectors ? The
sacred injunction of doing as Ny e would be done
by, end repairing an injury to the utmost of our
power, can neve'. 4e beneath the dignity anti cha-
racter of an officer, wilco convicted of ' crror-m--
provided that generous principle is rightly under-
stood, which so neatly approaches to every. ha-
man virtue, and which alone can render the mi-
litary character truly amiable and blOoming.

" Honor's sacrecllie, the LaW Of !Sing's,
The noble wind's aistinzuishing perfection,
That aids and Strengthens virtue where it weets Iler,
And in►itates her actions where site is not,
It ought not to bespqrted with—!" CM'o.

" In entering into my defence, ft will be re-
quisite, to answer the purpose of my own justifi-
cation, to rest on the following points

" That 1 cannot be accused of having taken
any unfair advantage of, my opponent, who came
with a steady, firm, and determined step, with the
iotvot of aislulting me, from which I had no rea-
son to ,appone he was in liquor, more particu-
larly at, it was then so early in the eveninqt that
the officer of the clay had but just returned from
the barracks, from 8 o'clock roll call.

Thut I had no alternative left me of Wiping
away the ignominy of a blow wantonly inflicted.,
which I
Could not, as an officer; otherwise than
resent, in the most summary manner; and that
„vet, after he had deliheratdy wounded me in the

The prisonee then called three native witnesses,

that they were'in the vermulah of the tuess-room

ed ; saw the. Lltter immediately rice, draw his

ties fought together, and Lieut. Cadenski receiv-

by the arrival at the spot of Lieutenants Murray

the evidence, the whole of which he react over,
and, commented upon most humanely as he pro-

tive evidences supplied the defect on the part of
the, prosecution, as to the party who struck the
first blow. This appeared, if they were to be cre-
dited, to have been given by the deceased. ' The
Jury would, therefore, consider hoW far, under
these eircumstancesuthe prisoner could be .consi-
