The enemy has entered our territories, and Con-
tinues to carry arias in the interior of. Russia,
hoping- with iti3 strength of 'arm- and his wrath to

try; with cunning in his heart, and 'deceit on his
lips, he. is bringing. everlasting chains and fet-
ters into it; We 'have called on the Almighty
for assistance, and have appealed to him for our de-
fence, our armies glowing ..with valour to . crush

_our firmest hopes, but we neither cannot nor

valiant and resolute exertiOns, with. all the strong
hopes we place in our gallant army,' We, .there-
fore,-deem it a matter of absolute necessity to as-

against ,all hostile designs and 'attempts.; at every.

THE SUN.

SOLEM QUIS DICERE:FALSUM AVDEAT ?

L 0 N D 0 N,
FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 1812.

This morning a Gottenbargli Mail arrived, but
it brings no additional news. We have extracted
the following articles :
GOTTENBURG/1-1 y At m. have this dayre-

ccived a confirmation of the-report of the City of

Moscow having given the Emperor of RUSSIA
100,000 men to assist him in the deferice,of the

country.
MI the large cities in the empire are expected
to follow so noble and patriOtic an example, by
which means the'army will be increased to an al-
raost:in cre,lible degree. •
• All the letters from the Russian head-gnartirs

concur in representing the unanimity and enthu-
siasm.i.vilich pervades all -ranks in the Russian
army; and, confidently speak of the eventual result

of the great contest.
The English packets have this day been allowed
to come up to the town.
.AcCounts from the Prussian frontiers continue
to announce the arrival of fresh French troops in
that kingdom. Upwards of x'ooo of different de-
scription's have lately passed through Burg and
thence proceeded to Berlin.

Previous to the sailing of the Lark packet from
Gottenburgh, Lord.
,cATHCART bad arrived in
Wingo Sound. The most important intelligence,
however, brought by this packet is, that Mr.
THORNTON, the British Minister at Stockholm,
had embarked in a frigate for Copenhagen.
It is well known that considerable military
prep- rations are making in Denmark, and we
think it by no means unlikely, that his Danish
MAJESTY may see the necessity of joining his
forces to those of Sweden, for the purpose of re-
establishing the independence of the North.

•
• We are happy to have it in our. power to. lay
before our Readers this day several official ac-
counts from Rdssia, which confirm our, previous
statements. The_ defeat- of SEBASTIANI is ac-
knowledged by BUONAPARTt ; he does not indeed
admit the 'defeat. of DAvousr by Prince BAGRA-
TION, , but be states a fact which. shews that
DAvousT must have peen defeated, for the French
corps having been interposed between Prince
BAGRATION and the main Russian Army, that
corps must have been beaten before BAGRATION
could have effected the junction which Buo::A-
P:ARTE conf'esses has taken place. The defeat of
General RosiciEcKt by PLATOW and his Cossacks,:
is also stated by the Russians, andadrnitted bylkuo7
NApARTE. So far, therefore both parties agree as
to the essential facts : wita relpect to the details,
some deductions, of course, must he-matle from the,
statements on both sides, when speaking- of their
successes. BUONAPARTE, it is said, has issued a
Proclamation, announcing _ his intention, of pro-
ceeding to Moscow. It is impossible that he cat)
seriously entertain such an idea, unless he could
absolutely annihilate the Russian Army. _ On the
contrary, we are convinced,. that "..if he does not
speedily bring the Russians to a general action,
and gain a decisive victory, that he' will retreat.

The EMPEROR of RUSSIA has ordered a fresh
bevy of 300,000 men, to form an army of re-
serve.

The Hermes sloop of war arrived at Plymouth on
the 12th, from Lisbon. She had an. uncommonly
long passage of three weeks, having sailed from
Lisbon on the 22d ult. the very day the battle was
fought ; of course she brings no news, The
wind, however, having changed, there can be little
doubt that the official eicpatches will arrive in the
course of a few hours.

• The Committee for the management of the new
„Drury-lane Theatre have, it seems, issued an ad-
vertisement, inviting the followers of the Muses
to compose an'Address for the opening of that
• Theatre, by way of Prize Poem. What reward'
they propose we have not heard; but it is not pro-
bable that. the Committee will be inundated with
the overflowing of Helicon.

The versatility of The. Morning Chronicle has.
often excited our notice.; and its conduct in this
respect, has .been strikingly ohservable upon many
occasions, which 4, we doubt not, have also attract-
ed the notice of the public in general. After. its
bitter attacks on Government, upon the subject of
the Orders in Council ; after its frequent lament-
ationi of the deplorable condition to. which it dc-
, dared those orders had reduced our inanufactu-
rers, threatening, they say, the most awful conse-
quences-to the State ; after the most violent cen
sures on the obstinaCy of Ministers in not repeal-'
ing those orders, we -might hope, for the sake of
consistency, that if The. Chmziele did not think
proper to 'praise those Ministers for revoking the
orders, it would µt leash have observed a sullen
silence upon the subject. But The Chronicle con-
tained a covert attack upon Government yester-,•
day, in which, among other hackneyed topics upon
which it has poured its abuse on Ministers, it at-
tacks them upon the very subject Of the revocation,
arid affects to say, that in effect, by adopting it,
theyhave given " the lie" to all their declarations as
to the vital importance of the orders which they
hive at len,;th repealkl. But'when did Minister's
ever recant the opinions whieh,..oey have main-
tained as to the substantial, policy ofr tc Girders
in Council; though they deemed it necessary to
comply with.the expectation which had been art-
fully excited by some, and warmly indulged by
others, of the important advantages which. would
result from a repeal of them, by :giving en4ploy-
ment to our manufacturers, reviving our comtner-
cial prosperity, and securing peace with America ?
Such were the motives which induced Ministers to
concede what they never abanclon,ed in principle
and considering the clamour which had been ex-
cited,, and the hopes which a vast number of the
people entertained of the benefits which 'would
certainly attend, the repeal, Ministers arc not to
be blamed for submitting to an , experiment that
tended, at all events, to restore tranquility at home,.
whatever may the ultimate effect upon the nav
tic:4ml interests.

Liz CouRT,--Yesterday, about half past two
o'clock, the PRINCE REGENT arrived at Carlton
House from Windsor. Soon,after three o'clock
the following Noblemen and Gentlemen were in-
troduced to his Koval HighnesS, and had the
honour to kiss hands, upon their respective ap-
pointmeuts
Lord George Beresford, on being appointed Comptroller
of the Household. . •
Mr. Robert Neel, on being appointed Secretary of State to
the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland.
Lord Jocelyn, on being appointed Vice-Chamberlain.
Nr. William Fitzgerald, on being appointed Chancellor of
the Ezcheiluer for Ireland. . _

Lord Charles Bentiock (vie understand), on being appoint-
ed Treasurer of the Household.

The PRINCE REGENT held a Privy Council;
which was attended by the Lord, President, the
Lord Chancellor, the First Lord of the Treasury,
the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the First Lord
of the Admiralty, the three Secretaries of State,
the President of the Board bf Controul, &c. We
understand that Lord G. BERESFORD, the Hon.
F. ROBINSON, Mr. R. PEEL, MT. W. FITZGERALD,
and Lord C. BENTINCK, were sworn in Members
of the-Board.

The ,RECORDER made his Report to the PRINCE
REGENT, of the following convicts under sentence
of death in Newgate, viz. Ann Rogers and Jane
Jones, for burglary ; Antonio Rose, for a like
offence • Thomas Bowler, for maliciously shoot-
ing at William Burroughs ; John Bowman,, for
stealing gOods in a dwelling-house ; Elizabeth
Corclaran, alias Cochrane, for stealing goods pri-
vately in,a shop ; Joseph Sanders, for a highway
robbery ; Diana Lovell, for stealing in adWelling-
bouse ; Thomas Ransom, 'for secreting and steal-
ing a letter, containing Bank-notes ; and Susan-
nah Lallament, for stealing in a dwelling-house ;
when Thomas Bowler was ordered for execution
on Friday next, the 21st instant ; the others were
respited during his Royal Highness's pleasure:
The PRINCE gave audience to the Earl a HAR''
ROWEY, Viscount CASTLF-REAGII, all(' Mr. WEL-.
LESLEY 'POLE. The latter resigned the official
situations which he held. in Ireland. The Court
did not breakup till past six o'clock.,

•
On. Thursday last, about three o'clock in the
afternoon,- as Counsellor Pennefatiler Was pro-
ceeding on his way fro ii Limerick is a gig', he
as stopped within about two miles of Fermoy, by
two armed fdotpads, who dernanded an instant de-
livery of his, money. Fortunately for the gentle=
man, he at the moment happened to have a se.- •
cond pocket-book in his possession-that contained
but a trifling, share of cash and some loose pape4,
and by affecting reluctance, which his presence. of
mind at the time suggested, he succeeded in clis-
appointing.the robbers of a considerable sum Of
money which he had in his. pa:act-shin.. Being
somewhat diss:itisfied at this small share of booty, -
they in a little time after met Mr. Painefather's
servant, by which event they calculated upon
ing themselves in better luck, but seeing their
hopes eventually blighted; they forthwith decamp-.
ed, not without taking six or eight ten-penny to-
kens, being thu entire Sum of specie in the man's
possession.
The Prince of Conde served in the Spanish ar-
my at the battle of Dunes, when the,
,Spaniards
were beaten by the French, commanded by Tu-
reline ; but he had no command, and his advice
with respect to the disposition of the troops had
been rejected. A few minutes before the engage-
ment commenced, be aAked the young Duke 'of
Gloucester if he had ever seen a battle lost ?, to
which the other having replied in the negative,
" Very well," said the hince, " you will not be
long so." •

MAHON, JULY 10:=The following intelesting
and affeCting little story; which I have just beard
from the lips of one of the Officers' of the Swallow,.
will, I am sure,. be of interest ‘to many of your
readerS the gallant .and sangu.nary action
which that ship maintained agaiest so superior a
force, close in with Frejas, a short time since,
there was a seaman named" Phelan, who had his
wife op board ; she Was -staeioned, (as is tcStlal
when women are on board in time of battle) to
assist the surgeon in care of the wounded. Prom
the close manner in which the Swallow', engaged
the enemy, yardarm and yard arm, the wounded, •
as may be expected,. were -brought below' very
fast, amouggt the'rest a messmate Of her husband's
(consequently - her, own) who received a musket
ball through the side. Her exertions were used
to console the poor. fellOw; who was in great
agonies and nearly breathing his last ; when, by
some chance, she heard her husband was Woutid-
ed, on deck. Her "ianxiety and already over-
powered-feelings could not one moment be re-
strained ; she- rushed instantly on deck, and re-
ceived the•wounded -tar in. her arms ; he faintly ,
raised his head to kiss c burst into a flood
`of tears', and told him to take courage, ".all
'Would yet 'be well ;" but scarcely had pronounced
the last syllable, when an ill-directed shot took
'her head off. The poor -tar, who was closely
wrapped in her arms, opened his eyes once mote
—then shut them for ever ! Wlu renders the
circumstance the more affeCting was, the poor-
creature had been only three weeks delivered of .a
fine boy, who was thus in a moinentdeprived of "a
father, and a 'mother. As Soon as the action sub-
sided, " and nature began again to take its
Course," the feelings of the tars, who wanted no
unnecessary incitement to stimulate them, were
all interested for poor Tommy (for so he was
called), • many said, and all feared, he oust die ;
they all agreed he should have a hundred fathers ;
but what, could be the substitute of, a nurse and
mother ? However, the active mind of humanity
scion discovered there was a Maltese goat in
board, belonging to the Officers, which gave an
abundance of milk, and as-there was no better ex-
pedient, she was eesoited to; for the pusrpose of
suckling the unfortunate child, who, singular to
say, is thriving and getting one-of the finest little
fellows in the world, and so tractable is his nurse,
that even now she lays doWn When poor little
Tommy is brought to be suckled by her.—Phelan
and his wife were sewed up in one hamniock, and,
it is .needless to say, buried in one grave.
