The troops will pafs the frontiers about the end of
this month, to the number of 27,000 men, part by
Catalonia, and part by Bail. The five thoufand
1 men in Etruria have commenced their march fpr

&Tilburg, where they will j• in the forces coming
from Spain. The united army will go to Mentz,and
thence, it is faid, occupy Hanover, in order that the
Spaniards may have a compenfation to offer to the

Englilts.
The capture of Montle Video has not caufed much
fenfaticn, owing to the hope generally entertained

Portugal, who has Allied the Engli(h too much.—

CONSTANTINOPLE, APRIL 13.
The Ruffians have fucceeded in taking the Mind
of Tenedos by form : we received this intelligence
on the 4th. The Ciptain Pacha has failed to the

Dardanelles, with flatten fail of the line, and a great

number of troops, to retake it. The enemy's force
confins of four Ruffian and four Englilla (hips of war.

GERMAN EYI.AIJ, APRII, 29.
This day we heard the firing on Dantzic very dif-

tinflly. It is impoffible the place can hold out long
The Emperor has removed his refidence nearer to
that city to expedite the fiege, but the head quarters
fill remain at. Finckenftein. The army alfo Rill re
tains the fame pofition on that tide. Martha's Ber-
nadotte and Soult are on each fide of the Lower Pat
large. Marfhals Ney and Davoult are upon the Alle,
and the Foliar troops ferve as the connefting medium
between Marthals Davouft and Maffena. The latter
remains upon the Macy,.
The Ruffians have long talked of giving us battle,
which is highly neeetTary for them, to relieve Gran.
deniz and Dantzic. Still, however, they content
themfelves with feints and preparations. In a few
days probably, they will have the mortification of
finding they have loft their time, as the fall of Dantzic
will add the force now before that place to the Grand
Army. Thus the fituation of the Fre;:ch is highly
advantageous for them ; on the other hand we can-
not account for the irrefolution of the R111113n4. Ge.
neral Bennigfen has been at his head qtlarters at
Bartentlein for this month pall. Hi. t• oohs firm a

aferibed to the Emperor's arrival, previous to which
they did not think proper to undertake any thing of

MUNICH, MAY 6.—An official report has arrived
from our 1- ,ty, and has been made public. It con•
tains the —.lowing intelligence :
An even • s corps of confiderable force, formed of difperfed
Pruffiso foltit who had been collefted, and the inhabitants of
that pa• t • f Upper Silefia, which is not yet in the poffeffion of
the troop of the Confederacy, affembled near Glatz, with the view
of railing t• e fleece of Nellie and Rorel In order to defeat this
enterprife in its commencement, Gen.Lefebvre advanced with the
6th Bavarian regiment of the line, a divifion of Minnuci's dragoon',
a battery of bode and artillery, two field pieces, &c. and took
a pbfition near Glatz. On the 13th the garri'on of Glatz made a
Conic, with sOOO men, but the Bavarian andWirtemberg infantry
behaved with fuch courage, that they maintained their pofition,
and drove hack the enemy. This affair, however, made them ac •
quainted with our weaknefs, and they formed a well concerted
plan agait,ll us. In the night of the 16th, a forth was made with
2400 infantry, fame cavalry, and four pieces of cannon. There
troops took a circuitous road round our left flank, and polled
themfelvea in ambuth in our rear. Another detachment was fent
by a circuitous rout to Watch, and a third on the fame night pro-
ceeded from Silberberg towards Frankennein. At day-break on
the tyth, another column, confining of shoo infantry, and 300
cavalry, with one piece of cannon, advanced from Glatz, againft
the left of our pofition. When this column was oblerved begin
ning to deploy, it was ruppored to be the only one oppored to us;
but the adlion had fcarccly commenced, when the enemy's prin-
cipal corps which was in ambuth, appeared, and fell upon our
right wing. The Wirtemberg battalion now found itrelf attacked
by a much ruperior force. Colonel Becker., however, advanced
to the attack with the 6th Bavarian regiment of the line, and re-
pulled the enemy, which gave the Wirtemberg corps the oppor-
tunity of falling upon the enemy's flank, and taking a how-
itzer. At this time an enemy's battalion appeared upon our
rear, which Colonel Beckers defeated at the head of the 6th
Bavarian infantry. On the left the enemy were alto forced
to retreat by the (mond battalion of the fame regimen t, com-
manded be Count Speretti. The enemy loft about 2CO in killed
and 'mended, 3so foldiers, and gt officers were made prifoners,
and eighty have defined. We have alto taken a howitzer end I
three pieces of cannon of finall calibre. On our part we loft three
killed, thirteen wounded, and two prifoners. Count Beelia; was
(truck by a musket ball in the brag, but its force was fpent, and
it did not penetrate, and be Bill retains his coMmand. During the
adlion, Major Von Boroklau was attacked at Franhestlele, and
Captain Von Zoller at Wartha ; but the plan of the enemy to
obtain poffefrum of there two places, was completely fronnted by
the bravery of the ift battalion of the 6th. Had the enemy taken
there two points in our rear, the confederate troops would have
been obliged to abandon their politician, and the retreat would
have been vary difficult. On the following day, the aft regimen; of
Bavarianlnfantry and the Royal Light Cavalry arrived near Glare.
Two companies and a squadron were then detached under the
command of Major Vass Floret, In purfulsof the (tattered platoons
of the enemy.
