The Commander in Chief praises the conduct
of the Major-Generals, KoEF and Count KUTII
SOW; as likewise the bravery by which the Body
Cossacks and the Polish Regiment of tirlilans dis-
tinguished 'themselves.

The Lientenant-General Count SCUUWALOW
has, on account of all eavy illness whicli has befallen
him, been obliged to lay down the command of
his Corps, -which his Imperial Majesty the Em-
peror has been pleased to give to Lieutenant-Ge-
neral Count ASTERMAN TALLSTOR, who was pre-
-
vious,ly in his Majesty's suite.

Head-quarters at Janeitscky, 9th July.

All the corps belonging to the first army havp
joined, and will to-morrow march into an 'en=
•
trenched camp iin.the borders of the Dwina, near to
Drissa. Om' troops have sustained the difficulties
of the march with their accustomed hardi-
hood; all the endeavours of the enemy, to cut off
_
,some of the separate corps of the flit army, and
to turn our right. ,flank, have been fruitless : at
present his chief force is directed. against our left
wing, in order to take a station between the first
and second armies. Prince BAGRATION has received
orders to attack these corps of the enemy, which
are in his front, and the necessary dispositions for
this purpOSe are already made in the first artpy.

Since the small actions which took place at the
passage of the Duna, our rear-guard has not sus-
tained any attack of consequence from the enemy.

EXTRACT OF 'A BULLETIN FROM THI GRAND ARMY,

DATED THE 14TH JULY

General PLATOFF has totally destroyed three
regiments, of Polish Ulltans. ' Two Colonels
and several Officers were made prisoners ; and
General Duw,vitv. wh6 commanded those troops,
saved himself with great difficulty:

On the 14th July, the bead-quarters were still
at Drissa, and it was expected that a great battle
would be fought in the course of a few days.
LINIBERG, Jt:NE 20.—A few Russian troops are
still remaining in Volhynia and Padolia. Their
chief force appear to be concentrating themselves
between Grodno.and Wilna. Letters from Jassy
mention, that several Russian regiments, which
were on their way back, have received orders to
return immediately to the Danube.

GOTTENBURGII, AUG. I.—The accounts 're-
ceived, stating that the French had met with a se-
vere check at Dunahtirg, are confirmed by intelli-
gence from Carlsham, stating, that a French
corps, under the command of General OVDINoT,
made the most desperate attack on the Rus-
sian tete du poet on the 11th, 12th, and 13th
of July, and were each time repulsed with. great
slaughter; leaving upon the whole 15,000 men
dead on the spot.

The Baltic convoy, for England, sailed the 7th
tiine on Wednaday last.

A Gentleman, just arrived ,from France, states,
that it is generally supposed at Paris that his Ho-
liness;has at length been induced to yield to the
persuasions and seventies which have so long been.
made use of to render him more tractable to lino-
naparte, and:thatthe first act by Which,le would
be called upon to manifest this disposition would
be by giving his benediction to the, neiv"kingdom
of Poland. The Catholic Religion being the na-
tional religion of Poland, it is suppoSed that the
re-establishment of the nation will be highly:gra-
tifying to his Holiness, and that he will readily,
second Buona.parte, by giving his sanction to the
measure. It is. said at Paris, that ;the Pope will.
henceforth reside in that city, as being the grand
capital of Catholic Europe.
The Crown Prince had, some time*since; drawn
to the amount of 50,0001. sterling On P;tris, and
the bills, under the direction of Buonaparte, had
been dishonoured. To indemnify Bernadotte for
this disappointment, it had been ordered by the
Court of Stockholm, that.none
:of the dividends
due to Holland from Sweden should he paid, and
that out of the sum so reserved be should be re-
munerated.
