a The corps of Prince Bagration is composed of
tot' r divisions of infantry, from 22 to 24,000 then
strong, of Platow's Cossacks,' forming 6000 horse,
and from 4to 5000 cavalry. Two divisions of his
corps (the Rk and 15th) wished to rejoin him by
!Pinsk ; they wire intercepted, and obliged to return
Iby Wolhynia.
" On the 14th General Latour Maubourg, who
follows the rear-guard of Bagration, was at Roma- I
doff. On the 16th Prince Poritawowski had his head
quarters there.
44 In the affair of the 10th, which took place at
itomanoff, the General Rozniecki, commanding the
light cavalry of the four cavalry corps, has cost 600

44 All the preparations the enemy had made to de-
fend the passage of the Dwina have been useless.—
The magazines he has been forming, at a greet ex-
pense, for these three years past, have been entirely
destroyed. The same has happened to his works,
which, according to the reports of the people of the
country, have cost the Russians in one year not less
than 6000 men. One can hardly guess on what
ground they flattered themselves that they would be
attacked in the encampments they bad intrenched.
' " General donut Grouchy has reconnoitred Babi-
novitch and Sienno. On all sides we are marching
upon the Onla. This river is joined by a canal to

the.Beresina, which runs into the Borystheies. Thus
we are masters of the communication from the Baltic
to the Black Sea.

44 In his movements the enemy has been obliged
to destroy his baggage, and to throw his artillery
and arms into the rivets. • All the Poles of his army
avail themselves of his precipitate retreat to desert
and wait in the woods till the afrival of the French.
“ The number of the Poles who have deserted
the Russian army may be calculated to amount at
least to 20,000 men.

lin to take the command of the 11th corps.

very beautiful, and in the highest state of cultivation.
We often meet with beautiful country seats and ex-
tensive convents. In the town of Gloubokoe alone,
there are two convents, which may contain each
1200 sick."

NINTH BULLETIN OF THE GRAND ARMY.

" BECHENKOVISKI, JULY 21.

.41 The Emperor, taking the road of Ouchatsch, es-
tablished, on the 243 d, his head-quartors at Kamen.
The Viceroy occupied on the 22d, with his advanced I
guard, the bridge. of Botscheisko. A recomisainance
of 200 horse, detached on Bechenkoviski, fell in
with two squadrons of Russian hussars and two of
Cossacks, charged them, and took or killed a dozen-
men, of whom one was an officer. Le Chef d'Es-
cadron Lorenzi praises the conduct of Captains Rossi
and Ferreri.

" On the 23d, at 6 o'clock in the morning, the
Viceroy arrived at Bechenkoviski. At 10 be passed
Ithe river, and threw a bridge over the Dwina. The
!enemy were inclined to dispute the passage ; but his,
artillery was dismounted. Colonel Lacroix, Aida.;
de-camp of the Viceroy, had his thigh broken by
ball.

is odious, the reprisal is just and moderate. No per.
son can deny this truth.
a The time is passed ih which Princes, who piqued
themselves upon a false generosity, who mistook.
'their weakness or their indifference for equitf and
moderation, allowed Friglami to do any thing, with,
out daring to attack her. with ber own weapons. If -
France had irritated this conduct, its Government
would have been deficient in one of its first duties--
that of defending and protecting subjects attacked in
their persons, property, and liberty; In not stoppiog
the' English, it would have emboldened their Govern-
ment by a dangerous impunity. It would have de-
prived itself voluntarily of the means of exchange,
and consequently abandoned Frenchmen, surpassed
byEnglish perfidy, to the despair of a detention which
would have had no other term than that of the war
between the two nations. Now, if England will not
allow that her children withheld in France, in conse-
quence of a just retaliation, are legitimate prisoners,
what will she call those whom she has taken from us
by surprise and violence in full peace I Let her give
up the ships, the crews, all the French whom The has
unworthily arrested in violating the faith of treaties,
and then it will be just to open the gates to the Eng-

her perfidy.

in arms have also broken their parole ; but let us
for a moment forget the attempt which has excited
general indignation,—let us even suppose the deten-

"Lord Yarmouth, and his worthy imitators, ob-
tained their liberty under the guarantee of their pa-
role. In violating that guarantee, they have offended
'the delicate sentiment of honour. Lord Yarmouth
was the first tb set an example, so much the more
fatal as its author is of the most elevated rank.
44 The unfortunate Frenchmen arrested in con-
tempt of the right of nations, despoiled of every thing
t,
in London, would have been very excusable in flying
from misforturie and vexations, but they rather chose
to suffer than debase themselves ; and an English
Lord, enjoying among us all the conveniencies of
life, violates his word with impunity ? He drags,
by the authority which his name gives to his fauh,
a crowd of his countrymen into the same indignity ;
and is the Government who has tolerated—even en-
couraged—this subversion of all principles, to dare
complain of us ?
6. Lord Castlereagh contrasts the officers of the
old regime with those of the new, and euhz;zes the
former at the expense of the latter. Without doubt
he does not comprehend, is this hypocritical interest,
the French whom his Government sent to perish on
Quiberon rock—and all those renowned scamen of
hich its fearful jealousy caused the loss to the last in:. n.
But without detaining ourselves any longer with af-
flicting recriminations, we are content to take up the
gauntlet which the Noble Lord has thrown d0wn....,,
In every time Frenchmen have held honour dearer;
than life. The incontestible facts we have adduced,'
prove that we have not degenerated, and that our-
officers were for a considerable time provoked by
example, before they followed it.
" But here is the difference between the past and
the present. It was a moment of giddiness in which
Anglo-mania had invaded all France. At that epoch
our military men would, as at present, have shed
their blood for their country and their Prince ; but
led away by a dangerous enthusiasm, kept carefully
up by men who knew how to profit by it, they had
not at heart that love fur the country, that legitimate
pride, that just hatred for our enemies, which now
form the character of the nation—:hen scarcely any
pefson ; neither the Monarch, the Court. nor the peo-
ple—had any idea of the force of France, nor fore-
saw the grandeur of her destinies. •
" Now, Frenchmen are thoroughly worthy of that
name—they are proud of it—and we no longer find
among us giddy young men to praise, in frivolous
societies, the tactics, courage, and success of our
esensies.
" In the same discussion, the same Minister, for-
getting all the reproaches merited by his countrymen,
upon the subject even of his complaints, dated to
threaten the French prisoners with a more severe con-
dition. What are the fresh barbarities which the Noble
Lord promises us ?
44 According to an authentic convention, signed at
Baylen, it was decreed, that 12,000 French should
evacuate Spain, preserving their arms on condition
'of not serving till exchanged. Scarcely had they ar-
rived at Cadiz when it was notified to them, in the
name of England, that the capitulation would not
be carried into execution, and that they were priso-
ners of war.
44 Not a soldier—Uot'an English General, had apf
peared upon the field of battle.. We had not treated
with them. Under no 'pretest whatever could the
English Government interfere to prevent the execu.
tion of a cvitulation signed between the two bellige.

" After such a violation of laws observed.in war
by civilized nations, all the 'French bad a right to
lescape from the handstf their enemies, as they have
done, after a detention of mere than a year. Gene.
rats Excehnans-and -Lagrange were demanded by the.
English Consul, and sent prisoners to London—but
12,000 men could not have this happiness ; and be.
sides, the cruelty of the English agents bad provided
every thing to enchain their victims.
44 A Captain-General, of a severe and juit charac-
ter, obliged all Andalusia to obey his orders, .and
respect the prisoners. The English, whom he would'
not receive at Cadiz, had him changed ; a Minister,
worthy of them, and at their direction, succeeded the
Captain-Genera. From that time the .lives of the i
prisoners were incessantly exposed—scenes of horror
passed in all their catamounts ; but the French tansy
having quickly resumedibeeffensive,freerseized upon
the Junta and Engliih •Agent, and they threw 40
prisoners into floating prisons—an invention worth,'
the humanity of our ebrllikt. At this epoch,. Lkw-
