FROM THE FRENCH AND DUTCH PAPERS.
Visys4. Nov. io.—Before the Emperor Faeacis
11. departed for Moravia, he reprefented to his Ge-
nerals, the impoffibility of any reafonable attempt to
defend the place ; and then bidding them adieu,
bumf into tears. It appears certain, that the Hun-
garians have teflified very little zeal in offering him
an afylum. When he was at the foot of the fair-
cafe, and ready to get into his carriage, he turned to-
wards the palace, and lifting his eyes to heaven, ex-
claimed," My God, my God !" The Emprefs teemed
nearly ready to fwoon, in a violent fit of defpair ; in
which the uttered many (everq refledlions upon the
Englilh Miniary.
STRISBUIIGH, Nov. 25.—1 t is ;unarmed that her
Majefy will leave 'this city, in the prefent week, with
her whole Court, for Munich.
They write from Mentz, that the fort of Caffel is
finithed, and prefents a formidable appearance. Ge-
neral DESSNFANs has juft affumed the command.
Auossoueo, Nov. 22.—M. HAMM, the Prof-
Gan relident at Munich, has recelyed a courier from
his Court, te,th difpatches,faid to be of fuch impor.
lance, as to render his attendance tneceffary at the
head quarters of the Emperor Naroc eon, where he
is to wait the arrival of Count Hauoviizz.
A fiefs tranfport of Ruffian and Aullrian pri
fours have arrived here, within a few days. A
body of French troops, as a reinforcement for the
Grand Army, from the interior, have alio paffed
through this city. Vaft quantities of grain have
been brought this way, within the lea fortnight.
BiTcuit is continually baking here, and at Munich,
for the army; at that place there are eleven ovens,
and here twenty.one, continually employed. The
whole of the Rates and provinces lately conquered
by Fratce, and formerly belonging to Auftria, con-
tain a population of IS millions of people ; producing
a revenue to that Houfe of 6o millions of Imperial
florins, or 156 millions of francs.
AsTweee, Nbv. 25.—The eight thoufand French
troops within the walls of this city, will, in the courfe
of a few days, be incteafed to twenty thoufand.-
ISeveral houfes have ten men quartered upon them.
A number of thefe troops are defined for the Bata-
elan Republic. Prince Louts is daily ezpettted, a
boufe being appointed for his reception. General
COLIIIO will command under him.
STUTOA RD' Nov. a i.—WC have received accurate
bnformation, rerpeeting the fate of the Aufrians
under Generals Wocrsesitc and Jszcacnicir. It
was at Plaudentz, where thefe troops, after fufain-
ing feveral combats with Marfhal AUG/RIAU, were
forced to capitulate. The former then confifed of
the infantry regiments of STEIN, BEAULIEU, and
Jet czACHICII. The cavalry had been feparated, and
croffed the Danube in two columns, to force a paffage
through Franconia into Bohemia. 'this enterprize,
however, fucceeded with one column only; the other
was difperied near Kieflegg. The officers and pri.
vales that furrendered at Plaudentz, are not to ferve
againft the French during a year and a day. The
column that creeper), excited much alarm for Tome
days•in the neighbourhood of Dillingen, where they
made feveral French Commiflioners prifoners. Be-
fides the garrifon of Utm, that were fent in purfuitl
of thde troops, a French battalion was difpatched
in greit haft after them, ou the 17th, from Aug[
to Donauwerth.
• Bassi:m.4 Nov. 17.—The Emperor ALEICANDIR
arrived here, in tin night between the 15th and t6the
He did not pafs through Prague from Drefden, but
through LuraFe, and arrived here lad from Deonitz.
After taking (upper at midnight, this monarch, with.
out refting, proceeded to Olmutz, w!iere, we under-
Rand, he had an interview with the EMPEROR. of
GIIRMANY.
Bawls, Nov. 13 (via France).--Count Lowry-
cil4, Colonel. General of the King of Sweden, who
arrived here tome days flute, has brought a letter
from his Sovereign to the King of Pruffia, in which
be exprefles his forprife, refpeitling the poffeffion of
Hanover by Pruffian troops, and obferves that the
Emperor A/AXIL/OM, and himfelf, bad previoully
concluded a treaty with England, in which they
pledged themfelves to compel the French to evacuate
Hanover : that the premature condua of Pruffia had
excited his adonithment, Sec. Stc.'
It is not known whether the 'Pruffian Cabinet has
returned any anfwer to this letter.
LUMINSUIGH, N•ir. 23.—Tke Ruffian troops con-
tinue their march through this ;slice towards Bremen,
whither Pruffi tu troops were alto on their way,' and
where we know that a conlidciable force has arrived
from England. The Commandant of the latter, Ge-
neral Dom, in order to hive an interview with the
Ruffian General Tot. s roe, has this morning proceed.
ed through this town hy way or Zell, to the head
quarters of the DukOf Bs unfwick. There are zOOO

Ruffians lying at Marburg, in radices to a& ac-
cording to circumflances.
Haoua, Dac. 3.—We learn that Count HAIP2-
errz. the PruifianCabinet Minifter. arrivedat Vienna
on the 2oth nit. and that belt charged with a miffion,
on the part of his Courtrto the Emperor of the French,
in which we are affored his Prnflian Majefty has of-
fered to exert all the means in his power for obtaining
a general peace.
On the tsth ult. at fix in the morning, the Englifh
tranfport the Antelope, No. 2 13, was wrecked on the
ifland of Wargerooghe, in the North Sea, near Eaft
Friefland, three miles from Geveren. This veffel be.
longed to the expedition under the command of Ga-
neral Don. There were 207 perfons on board, anmng
whom were feveral Hanoverian Officers. They were
received in the molt friendly manner by tie itiliabi•
tants, but have loft their all.
Levi's/4, Nov. 28.—Letters received at Antwerp,
from Boulogne, dated November 23. mention, that
on the toth an Englifis armanent, confilling of fifty-
two fail, arrived op the coaft, deßined, as k appeared
at fiat, to attack the flotilla. Two frigates then ap-
proaching within gun (hot of the batteries, launched
a fire (hip, which, exploding very near a gun boat,
killed two men. On the 2oth, the Englifh fent four
more fire (hips againft Boulogne, attached to each
other by very Qrong chains: happily, they drove
afhore, and could not be recovered, when an intrepid
cannoneer kind upon the machines, and prevented
the explofion intended. On the night following, an-
other fire fhip exploded, without doing any nlifchief.
The Britifh fleet, confining of five flips of war, twelve
frigates, and a number of (mailer venal/, remained
in fight on the 234. The French, however, on their
part, continued upon the alert.

The VICTORY man of war, having received the re-
pairs necefrary to enable her to proceed to the River,
failed yellerday from Portfmonth with the body of
Lord MIAMI, with a fine breeze from the wellward.
His Lordthip's remains may therefore be caps-fled to
reach Greenwich to-morrow or next day.

The \Term frigate, Captain Thaws, which wai
appointed to convey Lord CarcHeaav to the Con-
tinent, arrived at Yarmouth on Monday, from the
Boulogne Cation. His Lordfhip, with his Son, and
fuite, arrived there the fame evening, and yefterday
morning embarked on board the VISTAL under a
(Otte. The frigate immediately got under weigh,
and was out of fight by one o'clock.—Wind N. W.

His Royal Highnefs the Duke of Coattail:43a will
embark in a few days, at the fame port, on board the
OartlEus frigate, which has been appointed to con
vey his Royal Highnefs to the Continent.
Yeflerday morning his Majefty's (hips Lamm),
FURY, and Foamy 5. with about Izo tranfports un-
der convoy, having on board the troops comprifing
the fecond divition of troops deflined for the North
of Germany, failed from Deal for the Wefer.
The troops on board theft veleta are, the 3d,
Old Buffs ; the Bth, or King's own Regiment ; the
7th and 9th Fufileers ; the 26th, or Cameronians
the 28th, 3oth, and 36th Regiments, and the firti
battalion of the 89.11 Regiment.
Great part of the troops on the Suffix coal! are in
daily expeftation to receive crslers for embarkation.
The fine brigade of the gallant General &INCE*,
who fo nobly commanded a brigade of flank eons•
panics in Egypt, taped to accompany him, viz. the
4oth, 87th, 88th, and zd battalion of the 95th or
rifle corps. The ad battalions of the 4oth and 88th
regiment, art like wife on the move.
Betides the above, the following, as far as is yet
arranged, may be depended on as a lift of the force
to be immediately embarked for the Continent from
Deal, Dover, and Ramfgate :
The 9111, t ith, and (it is nearly fettled) the 17th
Light Dragoons ; the 4th or King's Regiment, the
34th, 35th, 4oth, 46th, 87th, and 88th Regiments,
and the ad battalion of the 95th, or Rifle Corps—
making in all about 20 or aas battalions.
The 9111 (a Regiment of Highlanders) marched
yeflerday from Deal for Ramfgate, to embark.
The Commander in Chief of the Britifh troops
on the Continent, is Lieut. General Lord CATHCART,
who will have the brevet rank of General in the
May.
The General Officers in addition to thofe who pro-
ceeded with General Dos, are to he Lieut. Generals
FinTD, FRANCIS DUNDAS, and MOORS ; Major GC!
TIMIS MIKSJ42II FRAZIA, Sir ARTHUR WILLI sum,
&IMMURE, HILL, and two or three Brigadier Ge-
nerals. The Adjutant, Q2arter Mailer, Paymatter
and Commitfary General`, not yet appointed. Deputy
Infpeftor, Dr. Parma, goes at the head cf a large
Medical Staff.

We µnderftand alfo that an embarkation of traps

k (way to take place at Hull, a pin very convenient
for troops in the northern part of the kingdom.—
Amdng other regiments, we have heard the t R and :;d
dragoons mentioned as likely to go from Hull.
It is is agitation to fend federal regiments of heavy
' dragoons. The Royal Horfe Guards (Blue) under
the gallant Collonel DORIEN, have requefled to be
fent. In the mean time General Offiers and the:r
brigades are embarking with all pollible difpatch.
Three Tranfports, having each a Cntnpanv of Ar-
tillery on board, are arrived at Sheernefs from Wool-
wich, and more are daily capcaed. They are ihert!y
to proceed to the Continent, under convoy of the
REG V L us, of 44 guns, and Havoc& gun brig.

We have received French papers to the la. awl
Dutch to the sth intl. They add, however, but hale
to what was made known by thofe from which wc
yefierday gave fuch large extraas. '
The Pruthan Plenipotentiary, H*trowt• a, reach.
ed Vienna on the zoth ult. In going there he mutt
probably have pafied the French head quarters,

Znaim being on the high road from Prague to Vi.
enna. Why then did not the French Emperor enter
on the bufinefs ?—Becaufe he could gain a little more.
time by fending him to his Minifter Tax:Aswan at
Vienna ; for, probably, the firft thing required
.by
Pruflia will be a fufpenfien of boftilities. We (hall
not, however, indulge in conjeanret on a fubjett
which a few days will clear up.
One of the (mall Paris papers, the Journal de CIO.
pierce, of the 3oth ult. contains a letter from Auca.
"tau, dated Bregentz, the ath, in which he men-
tions having compelled fix thoufand Auftrians to lay
down their arms, and allowing them to retire to Bo-
hemia, on condition of not ferving for a year. How
comes it that this advantage was not *idly known
at Paris ten or eleven days afterwards ? The Monier
of the 29th, or any of thofe which precede it, con.
twin not a fyllable refpeaing this impot taut circum-
Rance. The difiance between Bregentz and Paris is
fcareely half the diftance from Znaim, or Massages
head quarters, .to the French capital; and the opera-
dons, to the fame date, of the Grand and Italian army
were known there on the 23th. Little credit, there-
fore, appears to be due to the letter purporting to haver
been written by Atro emu to Sr. Vial.. The ad-
vantage, indeed, fuppofing it to have taken place, is
not of much confequence. If AVGBIIIAti were only
at Bregentz on the 18th, there is little probability of
his being able to force his way through the Tyroi
time enough to be of ufe to MAMMA.
As to the reported offer of the Ruffians to capita-
late, as Hated in the tall French Papers, we know
that it is not credited by Government. Indeed, from
a comparifon of the German and French accounts,
which we yefterday laid before our Readers, there
does not appear the kart likelihood of its being true,
The retreat of the Ruffian force to fall back upon
their reinforcements, was executed in fo brave and
awlerly a manner, that the French probably thought
it neceffary to fabricate details which would *Milt
a plaufible excufe for their not having cut them off,
and hence their pretended march during the reported
Armiftice.
The National Guard is called out in every depart-
ment of France, and much exertion is ufed to bring
it into immediate difcipline, particularly in thofe parts
contiguous to Holland and the Empire. An army
is forming near St. Omer's, to be commanded by
Prince Louts. It is this force upon which dependence
Teems to be placed for defending Batavia againft the
mats of Ruffians, Swedes, Engin, and Pruffians,
which is, or lhordy will be, in motion againft it.

Generals hum Dowries and M4casszia Pan.
zeta, who are appointed to commands in the expedi-
tion, yefterday had an audience of the Duke of You,
at his Office, previous to their departure for the con-
tinent. The Duke of You held a public day, and
faw a number of Officers, and afterwards had a con-
fultation with the Duke of CAMBRIDGE and Lord
CASTLERRAGH.
On Thurfday arrived at Liverpool from Ireland,
the 16th Regiment of Light Dragoons ; on Saturday
they were reviewed on the North Shore, by the Duke
of Gloncetter.—The firft diviGon left Liverpool oa
Monday.
On the authority of a Morning Paper we hated,
that forr.e Diffenting Ci.ogregations had received or-
ders from high authority to make no collection fotithe
Patriotic Fund on the late Thanksgiving Day. We
are perfuaded, however, from the numerous liberal
donations that have come harm Diffenters of every
perfuafion, and from all quarters of the kingdom,
that the ilatement was founded on fame
--We hope it will turn out, that not a fingle con-
gregation ;Ambled on that day omitted this wcn k
of mercy ; and we are Cure the Diffenters, who at e
both numerous and refpeltable, will be found to have
fignalifed themfelves on that occafion.
On Monday night, at half pall ten o'clock, after a
thort illnefs, died at his honk in Upper Hometton,
Put. La Masuataa, Efq. Alderman of this City,
Reprefentative in two Parliaments for the Borough
of South mark, a Director of the Eaft India Com-
pany, Colonel of the Hon. Artillery Company, and

Hereditary Governor of the Ifland of Alderney. He
attended divine fervice at St. Paul's, on I'hurfday,
with his regiment, the Artillery Corps, when he
appeared in perk& health. On Saturday he was at
Lloyd's Coffee houfe, when the waiters, perceiving
that he was very weak, and looked very ill, propoled
to call a coach for him. This he declined, and walked
home. As Coon as he entered his hcufe, he went to
bed, and continued very ill until five o'clock on
Monday evening, when he expired.—He died in the
Sad year of his age, eaving a widow and 4 children,

commander in Chid- of his Majefty's Ships and Veffcls at the
Leevtird Wands, to Wilburn Marfdrn,Efq. dated on board the
Northumberland, in Gght of Barbadoes,
Sir—l beg leave to enclofe to the Lords Commit-
finners of the Admiralty, a copy of a letter from Cap-
tain 'loam, giving an account of the capture of his
Majelly's late hoop the Cyane ; and I am happy to
acquaint their Lordfhips, that I am jug informed by
a Ihip, that left Barbadoes last night, that the Naiad
has been captured by his Majefty's fhip Pistol. I
am. Sec. (Signed) MAX. COCHRANE.

Sir—l beg to acquaint you, that, on the sth init.
near Tobago, his Majefty's (hip under my command
captured the Cyane French corvette (late in his Ma-
fervice) of twenty 6 pounders, two fours and
fix i 2-pound carronades, with a crew of tsio men,
commanded by Monfieur MISNARD. Lieutenant de
Vaidiau ; the Naiad brig, of eighteen long twelve-
pounders, and 200 men, was in company, Comman-
ded by Monfieur HAMOU. Lieutenant de Vaiffeau,
(the fenior officer) but, by taking a more prudent
fituation and &paint- failing, effected her eicape,
without any apparent injury. When difcovered,
they were fo diltant, I law no chance of overtaking
them by an avowed purfuit, I therefore difguifed the
PRINCESS CHARLOTTE as much as poffible, which
had the defired Olen of bringing them down. Capt.
MRSNARD defended his (hip in a very gallant manner;
'and I am happy in laying, that her lefa in men has
been inconfiderable. The Second Captain, Monfieur
GAUTIER, and two icemen, are killed ; an Enfign
de Vaiffeau and eight Icemen wounded, tome of them
feverely. The fails and rigging of the PRINCESS
Coaatorre are much cut, which was evidently the
aim of both veils. She had one man killed and
fix wounded, one of them mortally. I have every
reafon to be fatisfied with the officers and (hip's com-
pany (at the time above thirty (hart of compliment)
upon this occurence. To Mr. PATRICK Wattage, the
Firft Li. utenant (whole exertions I have been de-
prived of lance lie took polfellion of the Cyane, ow-
ing to a fevere bruife he received by the falling of
her main yard) I am Much indebted. The Naiad
and Cyane left Martinique on the 29th Wt. bored
and viCtualled for three months, but had made no
captures. I am, Sec. (Signed) GEORGE TOEIN.
