Extract of a letter, dated Cronstadt Harbour, Sept.

'...-EverY body In Ritssia seems to join hand in hand
against the common tyrant ; and, if the Emperok is
pot ova-ruled by the people about him, it will be im-
possible for BONAPARTE ever to make head against

tired ten Miles, When the Russians, finding thanselves
iD weeks and that reinforcements were coming up in
the rear, retired to Meet them, and'are at this moment
entrenched about twenty miles from Moscow. It is
expected the French would fight another battle. I

in case the French should get there (not that it is
thought likely) but if they ahoiildt it will be of no
great consequence. All *the Russians wish to be sel-
triers—they have at thit moment 500,000 men in
ems, and might have 500,000 more in six months.
