received the following accounts of the situation of
the armies :

•4 On the 12th of February, hie Majesty followed
pp his successes. Blucher endeavoured to gain Cha-
teau Thierry. His troops were driven from position
to position : 4 whole corps which had remained unit-
ed, and which protected his retreat, was cut off.—
This rear-guard was composed of four Russian bat.
talions, three Prussian battalions, and three pieces of
carnon. The General who commanded it was also

with the enemy, and are pursuing on the road to
Soissons, the wrecks of this army, which is in dread.
ful confusion. The results of to-day, the 12th, are
.30 pieces of cannon, and an innumerable quantity of
baggage waggons. The number of prisoners was
already 3000; more are brought in every moment.
We have still two hours day-light. Among the pri.
soners are five or six Generals, wbo are sent to Paris.
It is believed that the General in Chief Sacken has

P4NIS, FEBRUARY 12.
His Majesty Xing Joseph ' reviewed yesterday in
thg court of the nuilleries, the grenadier companies
of the National Guard of Paris. The officers and
subalterns of the companies of fusileers were present.
The fine appearance of these ,troops, the excellent

• 0

spirit with which they are animated, must inspire the
citizens of Paris with the greatest confidence. A
lively emotion was excited by the appearance of his
Majesty the King of Rome, in the uniform of the
national guard.
During the review, a courier arrived with dis-
patches, which his Majesty King Joseph read aloud.
They contain in substance, that his Majesty the Em-
peror attacked on the 10th, near Sezanne, a Russian
corps of twelve regiments, which was completely
annihilated. Six thousand men were taken prisoners,
and the rest driven into the marshes :-42 pieces of
cannon were taken from the enemy. General Ro-
manzicoff, the Colonels, all the officers, were killed
or taken prisoners. The materiel of this corps Las
been entirely destroyed. We have not lost above
200 men. It is added, that the corps of Generals
Blucher and &eke!) are in a Critical situation. The
Emperor is in pursuit of them.,
These dispatches are dated from Champ Aubert.
This happy news, which was received with re-
peated cries of Five l'Elvereur 1 Five l'lmfirratri:e!
Five le Roi de Rome! circulated rapidly through the
capital, and caused universal joy.
It was again announced yesterday evening, at sit
o'clock, by a discharge of cannon.
Artillery has just been placed at the barriers of
Paris. on the north and east parts of the city ; the
batteries are served by pupils of the Polytechnic
school. The National Guard of Paris, the compa-
nies of the Department of the Seine, do duty there
jointly Kith the troops of the line. Chevaux-de-frise
are placed across the avenues or roads which terminate
at the entrance of the capital.
The outer Boulevards are constantly much fre-
quented by the inhabitants of Paris. Old troops con-
tinually arrive in this city ; every day some depart
to join the army; 8 or 4,000 are gone today.
PARIS, FEBRUARY 13.
His Majesty King Joseph was yesterday reviewing
twenty thousand troops of the line, when he received
the glorious news of the continued successes of the
Emperor. At noon, the Staffs of the different corp,
being assembled in a circle round his Majesty, he read
them the dispatches which he had just received.—
This news excited a, degree of joy which it would
be difficult to express.
The sentiments of these brave soldiers, many cf
whom are adorned with the insignia of valour and
honour, were displayed in unanimous cries of Vive
l'Entleereur! One might read upon their counte-
nances the noble emulation which animated them,
and their desire soon to share the fatigues, the dan-
gers, and the gl.iry of the warriors charged with the
defence of their country. The news flew from rank
to rank, and their joy rose to enthusiasm.
A quarter of an hour afterwards, discharges of ar.
riflery announced to the capital this new success of
oar armies. Bills containing the happy news were
posted trp, and one might judge from the throng of
readers, and hum the joy which they expressed, of
the attachment of the Parisians to their country and
to the Government.
The brilliant advantages gained by our armies,
exciting the courage of all Frenchmen, must prove
to them, that a nation is invincible when it is united
to its Government, and defends its territory and .rs
honour. The shouts of victory will resound in all
parts of the empire, and will eye new energy to Cie
national enthusiasm, the happy effects of which we
now perceive.
It affords us extreme satisfaction to be able to give
the inhabitants of the capital the honourable testimony
that they have displayed, under the present circum-
stances, the most noble, the most truly French cha-
racter. No sacrifice has seemed difficult to diem,
whether they had to relieve the sick and wounded, or
to watch over the preservation of the public tranquil-
lity. The organization of the national guard wac
executed with the most admirable promptitude. and
the greatest order continued to prevail in this vast
capital. This fine example is followed in all the de-
partments. Never have levies and the receipt of the
contributions been completed with mere ease and rea.
diness. Every one is fully convinced that he ought
to second the views of the Government. We have too
save our families, our property ; to maintain our
tigh,ts, to deliver our territory. What Frenchman
could be deaf to the voice of his SoyFreign ? Who
would not share the glory of our brave soldiers, and
contribute to save the country ?
LYONS, FEBRUARY 7.
The army of Lyons increases daily. Every thing
necessary for the troops is provided ; the patriotism
of the inhabitants, and the zeal of the magistrates,
have created the extraordinary resources which cir-
cumstances required. Already the Duke of
Cas-
tiglione has begun his military operations by C:tllSing
au attack to be made on Monthiel, from which the
enemy was driven the day before yesterday, leaving
in our hands some of his men, among whom is one
officer.

PROVINS, FEBRUARY
[Frani a private letter.]

cess yesterday. I acquaint you with the departure

gusa, and the Prince of Moskwa. All the divisions
from Spain which were here marched away yesterday-
It was chiefly the cavalry and infantry of the Duke

charge.

To-day we give amp]e extracts from the Monktut:
Ind other French Papers, the arrival of which we
mentioned yesterday. The action of the 10th and
11th, as briefly notified in the Bulletin •of the 12th,

vh.ch came from Boulogne, are again most art-
fully brought before the Parisian public, but without
any details which can enable us to throw much more
light on these events. The new affair of the 12th,
at Chateau ThiQrry, is described as the most bril-

lint of all. We have perused these accounts with
attention, and cannot find that any remarkabl
triumph has been obtained over the Allies. The ac-
cnunts are is fact studiously confused, and the claim

to victory is extremely equtvoeal, the Allies being
subsequently nearer to Paris than they were previous
te these affairs taking place.

The first action, on the 10th; appears to have been
with some detached corps of the Allies, which, it is
stated, consisted of twelve regiments and 40 pieces'
of cannon ; and the General commanding, together
with all the Officers, the whole of the cannon and
6000 prisoners, ire asserted to have been taken,, and
the rest of the men to gave been either _driven into a

marsh or killed. This affair took plac.o at Champau-
ten, and it is added that BoNAPARTE was pursuing
General SAWYER, Who was separated from Marshal
BLUCHER. On the 11th, we are told, BOICHER was
routed, but without any details being given. On the
12th,it is asserted, that BONAPARTE followed up his
success, that a corps which protected the retreat of
the Allies WAS cut off,- consisting of three Russian
and three Prussian battalions, and three pieces of
cannon, and that the General who commanded (who
is not, however, named) was taken.
We are then tuft! That the French entered Chateau
'Merry pell-mell with the Allies; and were pursuing
elan on the romi to Suissons, and that the result of
