FIFTEENTH OFFICIAL fitiLLtTIN. OF THE
GRAND ARMY.

" Braunau,
" Several Russian deserters ate already arrived;
among them is a,.Serjeant-Major, a native of Mos-.
cow, a very intelligent man. It 'may; be easily ima-
gined that he was questioned ,by every one. He
tells us that the Russian Army is quite differently
disposed nor towards. the Frencli'to what 'it was
in the last War ; that the prisoners 'who returned
from France had spokenin high praiso of it; that
there,liiere. six in his cbmpany,who were removed
from it at the time they left Poland; .thatif all the
men who returned from Franee had been suffered
to remain in the Regitneets, there can be no doubt
•
but their would all havedesertedi thatthe Russians
ewere very sorry to . fight, for the Germans, whom
they detest; , and that, they had :thigh opinion of the
French Valodr. He was asked if -they loved the
Emperor ALT:nA,Npkit.:, Ile replied, that they were
too wretched to have any attachment for him ; that
the Soldiers wore fbialer of the Emperor PAUL, but
that the batty referred, the Emperor Ats,x,tte-
nen. ; th;:t the Russians in general 'tVere very happy
to cent their owu country, because they lived better
and were better paid; that vane of then wished to
&.en back to Russia ; and that they would rather este-
hhill tbemsejvcs in other climates than return under
the authority of so *Sit a Government; that they
iVere aware that the Austriana had lost every battle,
and Were 'in a Ja inimitable situation.

trians, about 6000 strong, on lia road to Mero-

ness of the eight saved tlae Enemy's corps. Part of
it saved themselves in the woods,- and there were
only .500 prisoners taken. ,The advanced guard of

" The inhabitants of Braunau, acconling to, cus-
tom, carried to their houses a great part of the
magazines. A Proclamation brought all back again.
There are at pres6it 1000 sacks of flour, a great
quantity of oats, inagaAiiies, of, artillery ,of every
kind, and 50,000 rations of bread, of which we are
in great want. A part ail. was distributed to the
division under MarshalSOULT.

MUrSh:ll BERNApoTTF. is arrived at Saltzbourg.
The Enemy retreated by the rota of Carinthia and
Nsfels. A regunent of infantry wished to keep Pos•
session of the village of Halton. It was obliged to
retreat towards the village of Coiling, where the
IViarshal hoped that General Kiit.LEIOIAN would be.
able to cut otf theirretreat, and take them prisoners..
We are assured by the inhabitants, that:the En.
FEROR of Ggamotr, in his anxiety, came to Wels,
-Where he learnt the disaster of his,-army. He also
becarne'acquainted there with the clamours of Ilk

Au.trian and Bohemian Subjeas against 'the

suns, who commit such pillage- and violen6c, that

they bug for theT arrival of the French, to delver
them Twin ‘the:;e extiliardivaxy

Salon between and Haag. All the other divi-
sions of the army are adVancing, but the weather is
horrible. It has snowed six inches deep, and the
roads are in consequence detestable.
" The Secretary of State .111,411 ET has joined the
EMPEROIt at Braunau.
" The ELECTOR of BAvARIA has returned to Mu-
nich.: he 'was received with the greatest enthusiasm
by the inhabitants of his Capital. •
Several Mails from Vienna had been inter-
cepted.. The lasi letters were dated on the 18th of
Oa-ober. Some intelligence of the a6tion at Wer-
tingen had reached it, and had created the greatest
consternation there. Provisions were so dear that
few persons could,afford to purchase them. Vienna
was threatened with a famine, and yet the harvest
had been very preduaive: but the depreciatn of'
the paper money, and of the assignats, upon io
which
there was a loss of 40 per cent..had raio,4l every
thing to an exorbitant price. Every ontyVas per-
suaded that the Austrian paper cuerenciimust be
completely destroyed.
" The husbandman would no longer exchange.
his produce for a paper currency of no value. There
is not a wan in all Germ.any who does not consider
the English as the authors of alp war, and the Etu,
perors FRASCIS And ALEXANDER as the vitiirns of.
their intrigues. The cry in every mouth is, that
there will be no peace as long as England is govern-
ecl by an Oligarchy, and governed it will be in that
way as long as * *' * . The * *-

OF ITALY.

Ilead44uatters at Vago, 044. 30.
" After the Aaion of the 2gth, the Army took
a poition two miles on this bide of Caldiero. 04
the 30th it attacked the Enemy the whole length of
their line, The Divisioti of Mofarofi, forming, the,
left, began the adiou; that of General GAnnANtie,
attacked the centre, and that of General D6IIBUIE
the right. Thesg, different aPcks were well exe—
cuted'and happily concluded. q'he village of Cal-
diero was carried amidst cries of c Long live the
Emperor,' and the Euemy Niro pursued to the very
lie)ghts.

"-At half-past fonr Prince CUARI4S Ord.ered, his
Reserve, consisting of 24 Rotations of Grenadiers,
and several Regiments, to 'advance. The battle then.
became more general. The Troops of his 'Majesty
displayed their usual bravery, The Cavalry matte
several successful charges ; some Battalions of Gre-
nadiers engaged at the same time, and the bayonet
decided the fate of the day, The Enemykept up
.a fire fronk.thir,ty pieces of cannon 'planted • in' their
entrenchments. Notwithstanding the Obstinac'y of
their resistance, they were beaten and pursued to
the
-very redoubts at the other side of Caliber°.
We :have taken '354)0 prisoners; the field of
battle was, strewed with Austrians ; their loss in
killed and wounded was.,at least eqUal to the number
that were taken priSoners. a riuce Cii4:4as
re-
quested a truce to bury the dead.
Our loss is very. insigniticant,...compared with
that of the Enemy.
" The Marshal-General in Chlef speaks in the
highest. terms of the bravery and attachment of the
Army. He will make particular, mention of the
brilliant exploits which have distinguished this day,
knd will make a .special report to the Emperor
of the names of the brave men to whom the honour
of it is dtie..
