QUIS DICERE FALSI-31 AUDEAT

L O'ND N,

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 22,' lgi 2.

We this. day lay before our Readers the . Six-
teenth and Seventeenth, Bulletins of the. French
Army. BUONAPARTE, it appearsiis pursuing his
eareerr, and advancing rapidly = towards .Moscow.
It does, not appear that there he been any action
of consequence since the battle -of Valentina; ex-
cept an,affair.-,between the French caValry under
11IuRAT and the rear-guard of theßussians, in which
the French, of course, .are represented as having
'obtained.all the advantage.. These Bulletins, like
the,former ones, are.full, of abuse against the Rus-
sians•for retreating, and for destroying or. remov-
ing their magazines, and yet, with rhe incon-
sistency which peculiarly marks these docu-
ments, they 'boast of
..the quantity 'of ; flour,
soap, brandy,
.&e. &c. which fell into the
hands of the, French: There is a singular
instance of this species of contradiction in the
Sixteenth Bulletin. After mentioning the en-
trance of the French troops into •Vidsma, it says.),
considerable resources in ,flour, soap, drugs,
&c. and large magazines of 14.ancly were found.
The Russians burnt the niagazines."—Now how
the French could contrive to get possession of the
contents of the magazines' after the 'magazines
themrselves had been burnt, we are unable to corn,
prehend. .

The 17th Bulletin is dated at Ghiat, the 3d ingt.
which 'is ,about midway between Smoleusko and
Moscow.; it states that the Russians are forming
lines in front of the last mentioned city ; and
there, it is probable, a battle will. be fought—a
battle in which, if 'the Fredeh are not victorious,
they are ruined. To retreat in the month of Oc-
tober, from the neighbourhood of Mosgow to the
Vistula, in the presence of a victorious enemy, we
should suppose to be almost impossible.. "General
Ku-I'l;w* has taken the command of the Russian
Army, whieh has been strengthened by his troops
tom the Danubv. This accession of force Will more
than supply the loss which the Russians have sus-
stained. • It is singular that the French Papers
furnish us with the Russian account of the battle
of Stuolensk.o, which, as may be supposed, differs
-materially from that contained in the• French
Bulletin. We Ore happy,_ however, to have it in
.onr.,power to contradict, from another authority,
the exaggerated statements of the. French Bulle-
tins.

We understand Sir RozEBT WiLsoN was pre-
sent at the battles of SmolerAio and Valen-
tina, and that he has written to Government

an account of those two very important actions.
states, that on the 17th. BLION 'at-
tacked Smolensko, with his whole force, first on
the Eastern, then on the Southern, and .in the
. .
evening on the Western face ; but that he was re-
pulsed in all his attacks, and merely succeeded in
firing the town,. On the 18th the Russians took a
position on the right of the Nieper; waiting .an
attack ; but -the French merely sent :across into
the suburb the Spanish and Portuguese brigade-,
which were driven back just as they-had set' fire
to the suburb. On the 19th
_tie Russians retired
Oa the Moscow road, when the French attacked
their rear guard. The attacks on different parts
lasted the whole day, when the Russians effected
the retreat of their whole army without the loss of
,a gun. The loss of the Russians on the lith is
st.aed at 6000 and two 'Generals of the French
above 12,000 and on the 17th each army is sup-
posed to have lost 3000 men.

The French, after the evacuation of Bilboa,
again made their appearance before that place, in
considerable force, and took
.possession of it, but
were soon forced to abarnion it. The following
leiter contains some details upon the subject.

'l6 BILBOA, SEPT. 9.—Shice the llth of -August,
when the French evacuated this town, it has been
twice attacked by them, `and on both occa'
bk.lns they were repulsed. On the, 27th ult.
the General in Chief, Count CAFFARELLI, ad-
vanced at the head of 9000 infantry, 800 cavalry,
and several, pieces of artillery, and entered the
town without any opposition, the Spanish. forces
withdrawing on his approach. .T;ie enemy re-,
'trained here until yesterday,'. the Bth, when they.
finally quitted us at two o'clock, 'P.M. and imme-
diately -afterwards the town was entered by the
troops of General RENOV NLES."

It appears, from the last accounts from AemeOca,
that groat apprehensions. are entertained respect-
ing the safety of Commodore RODGERS and his
squadron. It even, said, ,at New Yoik, that

be was gone to France. If that valiant herd
should pay a visit to Europe, we trust that he will
honour .acme British port with la presenec.
Dispatches were this morning reeeiv'ed at the
Admiralty from the Admiral commanding at New
.
foundland, which state, that the AL"rt slbop
war of sixteen guns has been taken by theAnie-
rican frigate-Esau of 44 guns, after a very severe
action.

Yesterday his Royal Highness the Pike of
YORK had an audience of the PRINCE REGENT, at
Catlton House.

Ifhis'clay, at two o'clock, the PRiNCE REGENt
mill 1101(1 a Privy Council at Carlton House.--The
Corpvration of the City of London Will also-wait
upon the PRINCE REGENT with their Addres.'
The Loan MAYOR, we understand, is to be
created a Baronet of the United Kingdoms) be-
fore he retires from his high Civic Office. •
By private accounts from Riga; we learrrthat the
force assembled in that town is very-considerahle—
not less, it is said,than 29,000 men. They are by no
means confined to m erely defensive operat ions, and
must derive .material support from the gun-boats
and other craft in the river Aa, which are manned
with 5000 Russian seamen. The-following; -letter
slims, that the garrison was annoying the-Prus-
sians extremely., and had made a cumber of pri-

soriers
"The result of Gen. Lowis's eNpeditidn*,-
is-600 .prisoners and S officers. They were
surrounded and taken at Kekkau. The elnirch,
containing their stores they burnt. A redoubt of
seven cannon was 'stormed and taken.: Anothef
Russian column had. taken the road to Olai,
and a great many wounded have been brought
from I? olbusch. Colonel Thiedemann died of a
xvourid be received froni a pistol-shot this morn-
ing, shortly after he was brought in. General
Lowis is returned. The Prussian flying-artillery
at Kettliau retired with precipitation, and saved
their cannon; so that only the seven pieces' men-
tioned have been tako. 'They are this afternoon
still fighting on the road, to Olai : Rtissian and
Prussian wounded are continually bringing in,"
A letter from Cadiz, dated 27th.riltimo, relates
the folloWing interesting particulars :—" I have
the happiness to' inform you that the French have
entirely raised the siege" of Cadiz. On the', 25th,
they began to bloW up their works (which,' haVe
cost 'them four years of hard labour to erect), and
burst- th Ar mortars and- -guns,'by overcharging
and placing their Muzzles one against another,
and exploding them with port fires and trains.—
They had just completed a martello tower, and
got a very long brass 24-pounder on it, but they
blew this up also ; but out of 600 pieces of ord-
nance (all brass)„ from Chiclana to Rota, almost
the whole have either bursted or been rendered
unserviceable. The contrast between the night
previous to their departure' and the -next morning
was singularly pleasing. In' the night the French
employed themselVes in throwing shells into the
city and the inhabitants were filled with dismay.
Tile next morning was ushered in with. the spectre
of the enemy, in fullretreat, and their strong holds
involved in. flames, accompanied by the jocund
acclamations of " Viva. Zprcl Wellington, Viva. los
Ingles6, Viva Fernando, Viva Espanioles I" The
current of joy ran through. the populace like an
electric spark, and soon the people were. seen
bringing their beds and goods from the bomb
proofs, and replacing them in their houses, while
boats, crowded with persons of all descriptions,
proceeded to the opposite shore, for the purposes
of curiosity, or to see old friends, from whom they.,
had been so long separated. All the gun-boats, we
expect,willremove to Gibraltar. Three have gone
up the river to Seville."
buoNARNaTa has issued a decree, ordering all
ships from the Hanseatic ports to bear, in future,.
the French flag.
Letters from Washington state, that a repre7
sentation had been made to the Government, that.
in consequence of the favourable prospect of the
Orders in Council being, repealed, a -number of
,_Arnerican ships were taking.goods onboard
tl:is country, to be ready to take advantage of the
measure, supposing it- would be all that was re-.
quisite to satisfy the American Government, and
that they would be Well received in America. in
answer to this it was Observed, that such ships
would be liable to be captured on the high seas
by American privateers, as well as those of Great
Britain 5. and if ' they had the good fortune to
escape both, and to reach an American port, they
would then subject themselves to seizure under the
non-importation law.
