It is airerted with confidence In the belt inform.
ed circles, that Government has received informa-
tion that the armed• confederacy between Rutfia,
Denmark, and Sweden, has aftually been figned ;
and that orders, in confequence, have been, or will,
be, immediately, itrued to detain all the Swedilh
lad Danilh !hips in our ports.
Not long ago all Europe was leagued with Eng-
land againft France, we would not be furprized if,
in a little time, we fhould fee all united with
France againft the united kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland !
Yallerday the Lords of the Admiralty received
adviccs by an exprefs from Sir EDWARD }'ELLEN,
that in confcquence of information that feven fail
of the line, with a number of frigates, and hav-
ing aOOO troops on board, had taken advantage of
a gale of wind, and got out of Breft water, he had
flared the direEtion which, by his cruizers, he was
inhaled they had taken ; and had the good for.
tune at leaft to prevent their proceeding on their
voyage.—They had run into Vilaine-bay.
We hear that Minifters conceive it proper to be
prepared againft any attempt of invafion, which
the enemy, with fo many troops as are rendered
difpofeable by the peace on the Continent, may
retake.—Orders, we are told, have therefore been
given to conftrat, as loon as poffible, a number
of gun-boats for the proteCtion of our coats, par.'
ticularly our ports, and the mouths of navigable
riven.

The APOLLO, lately arrived from India after a
remarkable quick pairage, brought the particulars
to Government of the unfuccefsful attempt made
by Colonel MURIA r, and a detachment of the 84th
Regiment, to make a landing at Suez. A pro-
mite of extenfive co-operation had been made by
the SCHEID' of MIDIN• ; in confequence of which,
Colonel MtralAv, with a body of between 4 and
Loo men, failed from India, and was concluded
up the Red Sea by Come veffels of Commo-
dore BLAN KIT'S fquadron. The Scasesr of
MEDINA was fo far faithful to his engagement, that
be joined the Englifh in perfon, but with a force
fo inadequate that their attempt to make good a
landing totally failed. After the lots of a great
number of the SCH ell followers, it was judged
expedient to re-embark, and leave the French in
quiet poffefEon.—The attempt ferved only to fhew
that the enemy have obtained a firmer footing in
Egypt than was believed, and that the reports of
AIDOU•LL HI Mswou are not altogether falfe.
We this morning received the Paris Papers to
the loth inflant inclufwe. From the armies in
Germany nothing new was to be expeßed ; but
from Italy we have accounts of feveral important
events. The French, after croffing the Mincio,
alto paffed the Adige, took poffeffion of Verona,
which was evacuated by the Aufirians, and gain-
ed feveral other advantages. It is poffible that a
flop will foon be put to the farther effufion of
blood in that quarter by an Armiftice ; for it
would be abfurd to continue a war in Italy which
has been terminated in Germany. The following
are extra.% from the French Journals :

--ieutenant-General DEENA% commanding
advanced guard of the army, had receiver
pats the Mincio at break of day, on
two bridges, which were to be conaru ,

cannon were placed on batteries on tai
by the care of General MAR moat.
the artillery, in order to cover the
of the bridges. This General Offics
. are indebted for the organization af
artillery of the army, has been of the
fervice. At (even, 6 companies of c
commanded by C. Davt2t.zas, Cbbtof
light battalion, pared the Mincio ishreel,
the confirm :Hon of the bridgeorvi.
of the bridges was completed and the.
guard' effeded its palTage. A general
infantry and cavalry was inunediatek
the orders of Lieutenant Genera,
was crated without firing a bolt

cannon, while enlisted to s. lirftic fire of Marquetry
and grape-!hot from the enemy again& the front
of all the columns ; at the fame time that they
were ftrongly cannonaded in flank fixim redoubts
conftruded on ,the heights of Saliouia. The
enemy &on gave way to an attack fo impetuous,
and fled with precipitation ; all thofe who remained
were either killed or made ptifoners. The brigades
of Generals CASSAGNE and Blast)* pUrfued them
snore than three miles, as far as the heights of
Vallegio. The brigade of General Lamm and
that of the dragoons commanded by beneral
BEAU Pamir, advanced to the left to keep in check
the forces which the enemy had under the redopbts.
The brigade of dragoons, compofed of the tit and
9th, made a fuccefsful charge. Four pieces of light
artillery were placed on a battery, near enough for
grape-(hot to counteract the fire of the redoubts,
which very much galled the brigades of LArisss
and BEALII4ONT ; the horfe artillery and foldiers
of the train performed prodigies of valour; they
manoeuvred during more than an hour •tgainn
the grape fhot of the enemy, which difabled many
of the men as well as the horfes ; the Chief of Bat-
talion, Ausay, conftantly direeted• this battery.—
The enemy were at length driven from their po-
fitions by the brigade of LA PISSI, who carried
them by the bayonet, received with firmnefs the
different charges of cavalry, waited for them
within pit of shot, and compelled the enemy to
make a precipitate retreat. In the mean time,
Generals CASSAGN and BissoN had taken a po-
fition on the heights towards Vallegio, where they
were foon attacked by the referve of the enemy,
compofcd of the Hungarian grenadiers, to the
number of I 2,0c0. Nothing but the bravery of
our troops could have fupported, for more than
two hours, the repeated attacks of forces fo fu-
perior. The iffue of this unequal conteft might
have proved unfavourable to our troops ; but the
divifion on the right of Lieut. General Motwar,
near which he himfelf was in perfon, commanded
by General Bounrr, came up ; the charge being
beat along the whole line hurried on our troops.
The route became complete, we took from them
four. pieces of cannon, one cliffon, and about zone
prifoners. This movement carried a part of the
advanced guard Sowards Vallegio, where it had
(till to encounter a molt obstinate refinance ; three
times was the village taken and retaken. The
grenadiers joined to the divifion of BOUDIT, and
led on by the Adjutants DALTON and DMus,
came up very opportunely to fecond the efforts
of the 52d demi-brigade, and at laft occupied
Vallegio, after taking two pieces of cannon.—

Adjutant DALTON was feverely wounded by a ball
at the head of the grenadiers. On the firft cannon
(hot fired againft Vallegio, General of Brigade,
Lssutrts, forming part of the central corps at the
head of the brave 72d, marched along with itsl
Chief, FItIATIIR, againft the palifaded redoubts
of Borghetto. The courage of thefe brave men
was at firft not able to triumph over the obilacles
they experienced. Several of them fell below the
entrenchments, but loon rallying, they hurried to
a new attack when the Auftrian Commandant,
unwilling to incur farther danger, beat a retreat,
and offered to capitulate : 2000 prifoners, 29 of
whom were officers, g pieces of cannon, z howit-
zers, goo mufkets, and 8o hones, were the refult
of this capitulation.
In confeqnence of thefe memorable anions the
centre of the army under the command of General
&KNIT, the referee under General Mc tour:,
and the cavalry commanded by the General of
divifion Davousr, effeCted their paffage and took
their pofitions : the referee of artillery followed.
In the night the enemy, who had remained me-
ters of the Caftle of Vallegio, evacuated the place.
The day of the 26th was Rill more glorious for
all the troops who had oecafion to be engaged :
the route of the enemy was complete. They loft
14 pieces of cannon, and about 3soo prifoners.
The General Officers of the Staff who diftinguifb-
ed tkemfelves deferve the greaten praife. They
all fought with diftinCtion.

Theaftivity of C. Aux, Direffor.General of
the parks of artillery, who was charged with the
conftraltion tithe bridges, deferves to be recom-
mended to notice ; he was perfeitly well feconded
by C. Povat and Daariaams, Cbief of Battalion
of the pontooners.
The brave General of Brigade, Ms It MET, aas
feverely wounded fighting at the bead of his troops,
on the road to Valleggio.
Among the fuperior officers wounded are the
Chiefs of Brigade, GASPARD, commanding the ill
of the Provifional Line; Goinsor, Commandant
of the :sth light; DM/Altai, Chief of Brigade
of the zsth light; and Dissscuss of the pd.
General Bsaunome, charging at the head of the
ti and sd regiments of dragoons, had a horfe
wounded; General Lirissa, a horfe killed; the I
Chief of Brigade BALTAZaII, of the aoth light. a
horfe wounded; C. Beysamass, of the sorb light,
a horfc killed and another wounded; C. MARTIX,
a horfe wounded. We mutt not pars over in filence
the bravery difplayed on that day on the front of
the line of the advanced guard by C. Asnaicu.
