was a fate which usually falls to the lot of the das-

tardy. To tender their calamity more poignant,
these indigent shepherds found themselves involved
in the imme❑se &hf of twenty millions of florins.
The Einperor of Austria did what he could to al-
leviate this heavy misfortune; he stipulated, that
the privileges of the Tyrolese and Voralbergers

should remain entire. Bui is there any one so cre-
dulous, or so uninformed attic grand events of the
day, as to suppose that Buonaparte could beebobn-d
by any ene,agements Faithful only to his usual
treac-hery„• he no sooner -had-the invincible Tyrolese
and Voralbergers in his grasp, than he imposed upon
them. contributions of every' kind, without remitting
3 single creurier ; and 'having taken-thi4-barbarous
retenge, he surrendered them to his recently created
King of Bavaria. • •
This Prince, in his•turn; made -a point of impo-
verishing and oppressing his nekkacqUisitjoris. • Not:
satisfied with raising heavy contributions,• over-
0re...., their ancient constitution, which they had
observed' for a series of ages; abolished the repre-
sentative States, in oilier to obstruct -the way to all
popular temonstrances, and seized the provincial,.
pupillary, and credit-tunds. • He. moreover confis--
cated all •ecclesiastical property, abolished-the pre-
Liciei,atid convents, and sold all public buildings to
replenish his empty coffers. Wirat., proved more
paiavul to the inhabitants than all these oppressions,
was the disposal oft heTanCient and original castle of
the Counts of theTyrol. . • '
livery successive month was marked with a list of
new exactions and• taxes, that were levied with the
utmost: rigotir. Coin had become ' uncommonly
scarce, •and the Bavarian Government -enhanced the
emoarrassmenr, arising front this circumstance, by
depreciating the Austrian bank-hills, Which were
still in circulation, to one ball of their' nominal va-
lue.. ,This operation caused io the countries in quz,-
tion a fresh loss, amounting to at least twenty mil-
lions of florins.

To. crown all these oppressive measures, Bavaria
had it in contemplation to change the very names of
the provinces..ol Tyrol and Voralberg, by calling
them after the- prinCipal rivers, and incorporating
than w:th lrer own dominions. •
• Tyese excessive hardships lasted three years. Pe-
titions and complaints were not Only rejected, but
by an. express law •absolutely prohibited.
When, therefore, in the beginning of the current
year, it appeared certain that a Dew contest between
Austria and France was inevitable, the intellitsence
was greeted by the poor Tyroleans arid Voralbergers,
as the rising sun is. hailed by the shepherd. Scarce-
ly had they received the news of the actual move-
ments ot .the two hostile armies, before they rose in
a mass. Their .outset .was brilliant beyond expeda-
tion.- The troops. of the enemy sent against them
consisted of 27,000 men, whom they resolutely at.
tasked in all points. Their victory was complete ;
those of . the enemy who escaped with their lives
being either wounded or taken prisoners. Among
.the latter were 'two General§ ; the sharpshooters
took, besides,. a -quantity of cannon, ;ammunition,
areas, and several stand .of colours: This tnemor-
-Ole battle was fought on •10tb and I ith of April
last. •The merit of it belongeti solely •to the valorous
inhabitants of the Tyrol and Voralherg ; for the re-
gular Austrian army, hastening to- their relief, did
tot join• them beforeihe 13th of April ;. it was •re-
coved by -the conquerors whit drums beating and
colours flying,, White ot -" long live

Tilot: who :know the• mildness of Buonaparte's
temper ,will aole to conceive an idea of the im-
prssston Which this news made upon .him. Ho in-
vaatly directed Marshal Leteovre„:supported by the
i3avartan, Generals Wreoev,;.Deroy.,,.and Sibbein, at
.1.4 e Llead ut 24,000, men,. in' watch against :the

Tyrolese by the way of Salzburg. General Rusca,
v.itt•ti 8000 men, was .ordered to advance troin
.white General .Ferrea approached from Carinthia,
and Uenerat ..Viarmont trout Bavaria and Suabia, with
trout six to seven thousand troops more. ~This was
certainty a tortuntableifurce, which would'have con-
quered, and even annihilated any other two nations
of equal numbers. The conflict, indeed, was ob-
suna:e and terrible. But the comics were defeat-
ed, ail out Lefebvre, whose force was too large,
accts , hose detastations and cruelties were such as
to spread terror every where:, He burnt towns and
and..gave -quarter to no one. The aged
wet', suspended from trees, and then shot. The
pregnant . women - Were even ript up, and their
breasts cut off, while their embryos were crammed
Mown;their ton-oats to put au ettct to the shrieks and
nauaningsol the wretched victims. If a Tyrolese or
V..ratberger, bearing arms,.'had the misfortune to
fail into their hands, they immediately tore out his
tocgue. The children were cut down without
tneicy, and most. frequently carried about, trans-
fixed with bayonets. A number of these innocents
i•appening to return from school,- were met with,
and driven by these monsters into some barns; and
butut alive. , •
Lefebvre and his. cannibals imagined to be alie
to intirma.ite the Tyrolese and Voralbergers by such
cruelties ; but tbey.ihad the very opposite etied.—
The Tyrolese sharpshooters now 'resembled blood=
thirsty .lions they. rushed upon Letebvre, and
_totally defeated him ; thousands of the enemy were
slain ; and toe General, accompanied only by a few
remnants of his great force, sought safety in an ig-
nominious flight, direetcd towards Vienna.
The result of this complete victory. was, that the
, Ty rot. and Voraiberg, being now tree from! their in-
vaders, served as an asylum to those Austrian pri-
_sorters who had been taken by the French at Ratis-
: bon, Aspen), and Esslingen, and who found little
chilicuity.in making their e..cape. About ten thou-
. s.ind profited by this opportunity; -they werenearly
and . the expence of (loathing- th.d arming
tb,in anew piosed no small burden to their hosim-
. table friends.- .
Another advantage of this viaory displayed itself
-in the superior courage.with which it inspired the
cotiqt.erors. lite), now sallied forth beyond their
:,froniters to seek the enemy. In Bavaria they ad-

few -miles of Verona ; and some corps over-ran Ca-

of th s..:oantries.
twithsianding these successes, the conquerors
Wert ploy cruelties or acts of oppress;ol,-r-
Not a sinjJ house was pillaged by them, not a barn

laid in ashes. No peasant was ever taken prisoner.
or insulted. The woonded enemies were partieu-

-or Voralberg, though the prisoners frorn either
country were tortured, murdered, or Jll-used by the

French.
All these glorious achievements,
.however,, could
• not arrest_ the progress or the enemy in other.quar-
, ters. Jo fine, an armistice was again concluded.—
The corpS of Austrian troops left in the Tyrol, and
consisting tor the 'most part of the above-mentioned
refugees,' was suddenly' recalled, and carried away
all the ordnance and ammunition which the Tyrolese
had taken. Thus the latter found themselVes com-
pelled-th abandon their convests, and satisfy them-
. selves with. guarding their own frontiers.
Lefebvre, Ruscd, Ferroti, and other Generals, pe-
netrated'unce more'as as luspruck, the capital of
the Tylol,•repe!tting their former devastations and
cruelties. But the• in.liguation excited by the 're-
appearauce of those itthwnau chiefs was such, that

confined to conveying the prisoners to places at safe-
ty, assembled -in numbers,.'and put to. death 6-to of
enemy near . Lande4 and thong!) the whole
force of the enemy amotMted to about 30,000, they
were attacked by the Tyrolese and Voralbeigers,who.
had risen en nise, with Such irresistible Wry, that
ttiogi Who saved themselves by flight were pursued
to a great distance, so as to be unable, during the
space at 24 hours, to allay their thirst with a draught
of water..

It was in vain that Buonaparte, on hearing this
new disaster of his arins,.detaehed Marshals Mac-
donald 'arid Bessieres, .with picked troop s, against
the Tyrolese. .They were routed, and obliged to
return.

From the concurring accounts in the DulchiGer-:
man, and French Papers, which are copied into the
daily prints of London, it is placed beyond all
doubt, that the Tyrolese and Vuraibergers persevere
in their obstinate xesistance to the.Freoch and their
Allies.

They are indeed now free, but at the expence Of
very uncommon sacrifices. Number, of thenimouth
their fathers, brothers, and-sons, not slain in battle,
but for the most part murdered in the most inhuman
manner. Four towns and 26,flopridhing villages are
reduced to heaps of ashes.--not to mention the de-
struclioof a large Lumber of tiNacheds-cottages.—
These clamities are felt more ,sensibly in a climate
which is very far from bt ing.miid. The tnount,tins
of the Tyrol and Voralberg have; ever since the be.-
ginning of October, been • covered wit it' scow and
ice. The inhabitants, though accustomedto sub-
sist npowthe hardest' fare, can; after so trnny devast-
ations,, pillages, conflagrations, and hardships of
' every kind, scarcely get whelk:withal to satisfy the
cravings of nature. Multitti,les at this moMent are
happy in being allowed some little corner in a crowd-
ed barn, stable, or hut. 2

In spite of all these sufferings, they are fully deter-
mined never to listen to any actod.mkadatSon with
Buonaparte, or conient to be again governed by the
iron sceptre of 'Bavaria: Thi4 deteriiination,
though' it may appear rash, can be -eutisfado-

SOLEM QUIS DICLRE FALSUM AUDEATI

LONDON,

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1809.

We stopped the. Press yesterday. to state, that a
Moniteur had been received in London, which
stated that an a&ion had taken place in th'e Mediter-
ranean, in which the French had lo,t six sail of
the line aad the English four.—We have not ,seen
the Paper in question, but the quarter from which
we received the account leaves us no room to doubt
the fad. We may therefore exped every hour to
re-
ceive the intelligence of another glorious naval
vic-
tory.---As to the assertion that we have lost four sad
of the line, we are not much .alarmed at'it, for the
French in all our actions have destroyed several of
Snips—upon paper !

have been received from.. Petcrsbuigh,
whit: state, that nt,twithstandi,ng the repeated and
urgellt tern mstrances cf tie Fren:h Minister, the

Erilperor ALEXANDER has not yet ventured entirely
to clOse his ports against Great Britain. The dis-
contents very, openly thanifested in Russia, in cog•e-
.quenee of the loss of trade, hate probably deterred
the Emperor ALEXANDER from enforcing his own
Decrees with rigour.

An Order has lately been issued in France, for
permitting British Females detained in France to re-
turn borne. In• consequence of this permission, a
number of Ladies have arrived within these
,two
days from France, in an American vessel. A,Gen-
.
tleman who had also been detained, 'contrived to
make his escape, and came over in the same vessel.
They all- confirm the account of BUONAPARTE'S
epilepsy,- and they state, that he is remaining at
Foniainbleau (or the recovery of his health. The
inhabitants of these parts of France through which
they passed; are described as being in a state of the
utmost wretchedness, but such is the t 3 ranny un-
der which they labour, that they are almost afraid
to indulge in the melancholy privikge of complaint.

The Tithes having threatened to put in his answer
to our statement respecting the Milford, to-morrow,
induces us to say 'a little more on the subjed to-day,
which the writer will perhaps endeavour to anvver
the day after to-morrow, for we are perfeCtly well
aware that he must be dumb until he consults his
oracle. We can assure him, however, en passant,
that he is totally mistaken in calling us the " Advo-
cates for the Admiralty," -which we conceive does
not require an advOcate on the present occasion :
he would- be nearer the mark in designating
us by the title of " DeteElors' of Calumny."—
We also think it light to observe, that in the
haste of answering a long paragraph in the Times,
.
We inadvertently stated JACOBS to havt-: been
the COntraetor for building the-Sp' elicer, instead
of the Milford, which,. though an inaccuracy, is of
no importance to the, merits of the question. Both
the ild• fife Milford are BAtt ships.
The exact.expence of building the latter we are now
enabled to iay before our' Readers, c,getter with the

In point of fa&, if the materials had'not heeh re,
ceived from Plymouth, by which, after payment of
freight thither, an additional freight amounting to
nearly toool. -was iiicurred, by them back
to Milford, the expence of building the above-men-
tioned ship would have been reduced to a sum con-
sidrnbly under 40,0001. Such is. the " foul Job"
which the, calumniator in The Times has the impu-
'deuce to*charge Government' with, in forming an
establishment. for 'the express purpose of building
ships at Milford.

The leading Paper of Opposition yestercliy. vented I
its usual acrimony against Ministers in general, as
it would againStany other set of men who might be
in office, unless the Government of the Country
were once more consigned. to All the Titlents. But
Mr. ARBUTHNOT, a .Gentlemen who has hitherto
escaped from the rancour Oiparty,. was yesterday
seleaedas a Mark for• the peCuliaf spleen •of the
Opposition Journal. We might safely leave the
Public to draW their inferences from this unexped-
ed attack, and we doubt not that they would con-
clude that Mr. `ARBUTHNOT . must: possess no
ordinary share-of merit, since he is at last' honoured
with peculiar hostility. But what are the grounds of
complaitit against Mr. ARBUTHNOT 1-Why, that
lie was employed in a public station at Lisbon, after-
wards in a diplotnatique capacity at StOckhohn, and
-subsequently at the Porte. Is it not very probable
that. Mr. ARBUTHNOT tntw have -derived consider-
able kooWledge from the experience which 'such op-
portunities afforded him, and by his intercourse-with
Foreign Courts have become better qualtfied for a
situatiOnat home than'persons who'haVe net had the
same advantages ? But the Opposition. Print which ;
thus attack a Gentleman because' lie hasfind-an.4p-.
portunity'ofseeing Mankind, of observing
-the con-
. datond acquiring a knowledge of the chartaer of
!‘ other-Governments,' refers the Public to Mr. T.
GRENVILLE'S speech.
,upon the failure of Sir J.`
Ductcwotern in the Dardanelles, in justification of
,ts hostility agaihst Mr.-ARBUTHNOT.' TliiS is a very.

extraordinary mode of supporting thit hostiliv•
A devoted advoCate for All the Talents appeals to the'
sentiments of one of that. memorable body, delivered
two or three years ago, in defence of its own splenetic
declamation.!—Such reference,we believe, is little cal-
culated to impress the public with any unfavourable
opinion of the Gentleman against whom it has been
urged. But there is another grievous complaint
against Mr. ARBUTHNOT, though certainly not of so
much weight as his alleged incompetency for
office, grounded upon his experience in Foreign
Courts, for he is charged with being an adherent of
Lord 'WELLESLEY. Thus we are let into the secret
of the attack upon Mr. ARBUTSINOT, for the WEL-,
LESLEYS have long been marked out for the -most
:acrimonious rage of Party, and to be attached to that
'family is'a sufficient reason for the extension of party'
malevolence to every body conneaed with it. „Bor.
as the- WELLEsLuvs are *distinguished Iv abilities
and integrity, the very circninstance of; being in
friendship with them is to be considered as an indi-
cation of congenial talents and probity. But it is-,
somewhat curious that this Gentleman„ who is re-:
presented as unfit for office, after all his oppor-
tunities and experiente;ixas in a confidential situa-
tion under-Lord GLIENi7ILLE, before he was sent in
a.public capacity to:Lisbon, and that lie continued-

express desire -of Lord- HewreK, who; as wellsa‘
Mr. Fox, avowed .his high. satisfaaion at Mr.
