SOLENI QVIS DICI:11.1; ?I ?

LONDON,
SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, 1812.

The homeward-bound Jamaica fleet has been

spoken with, in Lat. 43. N. Long. 36. W. by tie
Alert sloop of war, and -informed of the Ame.

maw war.

We have inserted this 'clay 'further and very
ample extracts, from the American Papers, which
will serve to chew the disposition, or rather per-
haps the hesitation, at lea.st•so far as regards the
Legislature, which has, marked the commence-
ment of hostilities. As we observed yesterday,
the whole of the intelligence in the Arne-
:
rican Papers must be -considered; with refe-
rence to this material fact, that the . revo-
cation of . our Orders in Counej had• not
leached the United States ; and from the clisih
• clination shewn by the Legislature -to afford the
means for carrying on the war with vigour, and
the very small majorities by which the warlike
measures were at length carried, 'we are dispoied
to draw a favourable augury); for although Con 7.
g.ress has adjourned, still the President, upon the
revocation of our Orders in Council being known
in America, can scarcely venture to persist in
the war ; the only. great exciting cause used,
to keep up the 'war fever being thus at-once
removed. To persiSt in the war, under such
circumstances, would indeed tend immediately
'to the destruction of his own po-.ver and influence,
and this, if no other motive operates, will, we
think, be imperative upon him. • '

Paris Papers reaehed town last night, contain-
ing the 10th • Bulletin of the French army in the
l\Tarth, dated Write')A, July 31st. 'This, "it Nvill
he observed, is the same date as that of the RuS-
. sian Bulletin, arbielt we inserted yesterday, but' to
the 'action mentionedin the latter-it 'ilaes not re-
. fer. In four. other aCtions, on the 23d, 25th, 26th,
a-al 27th, the French claim victories ; but their
stafPments are- vague, and not given with that
trinnanhant boast which, has so frequently ac-
-companied, the announcement of victories they
have actually and indisputably gained.. The last,
'we have litVe doubt,, will turn out to be that the
affairs to which they refer, were merely partial
actions, and the results of little consequence. We
are the more inclined to adept this opinion,
because it must. be evident to every one- who
reads the Balletid, that' the FreriCh had been
unable to change the character of the waaa or em-
barrass the Russian operations. It is quite clear
• that the Russian line remained unbroken, and
that no part of the army. was either cut off or
turned, because the Bulletin acknowledges that
BUONATARTE made preparations to :bring On a ge-,
neral action on the 28th, but the Russians, perse-
vering in that system which they have hitherto stea-
dily acted upon, retreated to Smolensk ;which retreat
BITONAPAIVIT appears to have been wholly unable
•
to impede, who merely states that his army af- •
terwards -entered Witepsk (which had-been previ-
ously the Russian head-quarters), a town of
`39,000- inhabitants, and which has twenty con-
-
• vents where also he found some magazines, but
he carefully abstains from enumerating them, ex-
, cept one of salt. It also clearly appears, by the ad-
mission of, the.Bdlletin, that in spite of the victory
claimed over Prince BaGaarrioN, the French were
unable to prevent his pursuing his march to Smo-
lensk.' Thus, thetefore, all the efforts of Buo-
NAPARTE to break the RusSian Arne, and obtain
a decisive victory, without which he must be ulti-.
MatelY defeated, whether the Russians Pgain any
great advantage in the field or not, have,
,hitherto
Wholly. failed ; all that he has dune has, been-
to advance a certain distance into the Russian
territories, incurring a _very considerable loss in
men and horses, which must, (from the French
statements, evidently have been the case), and
with his army thus- weakened, .and his distance
from his resources every day increasing, he has
still to encounter the whole Russian Army in 'the
heart of their own country, and.with their re-
sources, misequently, immediately at band. Let
the Russians but persevere in the system which they
have thus so happily aced upon, and, judging from
all history and from all experience, thereacan be
no donl.4.that they will ultimately defeat the
enemy. Buo NAPARTE may vapour about prisoners
taken, and troops driven before him, but rance,
as well as the rest of Europe, must laugh at his
bopts, if he Cf prflaUCC no better proof of vie-,
tory than following the Russian army .from tta;''
to stage i.. _their own
.country, at a respecttul
distance, and picking up a few „stragglers by the
way; and his own_troops must soon painfully feel
the privations to which such Q. march must
ine-
vitably subject them..
