Smergonie, on the sth of peeetaber, id charge of
the Grand Army. The suns lettersatate, that there I
were disturbances in Paris wherever BONAPARTE-
appeared in public.
While on the subject. of the Russian campaign, It
is gratifying to be enabled to inform our Readers,
that by the last returns made to the War Office, at
St. Petersburgh, it 'appears, that is &leen:es alone,
the loss of the French, during' their disastrous cam.
paign, was 128,000 privates. Eight hiindred Offi-
cers (of whom 25 are Generals) are also prisoners.
Six hundred pieces of cannon had also been returned
as taken by the Russians. The statements are offi-
cio. Let us now see how the remainder of this horde
of invaders has been disposed of :
The killed in the various battles detailed in the
29th French Bulletin (awl ws estimate their numbers
at an average taken irons the Russian and French
accounts) cannot have been less than 70,000 men....-
''his makes the total loss or men amount to 200,000.
But to these we must now add, the melancholy cata-
logue of deaths by wounds, sickness, famine, and
severity of the weather, of which neither the French
nor RussiAn details will ever give a precise enurnere-
tion.-,-The amount of this par; ofthe enemy's loss
may be calculated, however, with almost arithmetical
certainty. ,1f harms perished every nig?le by
fundrids, istst by thourandsithow many humaribeirte
must also have hourly strettiked their wearied limbs
upon the snow, never tis risa again ? If we say
50,000, we are sure we do not exceed the limits of
probability.—Once more, then, we maintain, that
the army which /to:variant carried with him into
Studs, is annihilated!

EAST INDIA HOUSE.

A Special Court of Proprietors met this day at
noon, at the India House, to hear read to them the
communications from his Majesty's Ministers, respect•
ins the result of the ftegociations for the renewal of
the Company's Charter. the Court was crowded
to excess.
.. •

The Correspondence ietween Ministers and the
Directors was read, including a letter from the Earl
of BUCKINGHAUSHIIII, of yesterday, to the Chairman,
which the latter received too late last night to have
obtained the opinion of the Directors upon it%
Li this letter the Ministers imist in peremptory
terms, upon opening the trade. The Directors, on
the oll,er hand, are equally firm in their opposition.

The Earl of BUCKINGRAISSIIIRLIS )etter was read
twice. The Chairman declared that it had not al-
tered his opinion, but, as the other Directors had not
time to contider k, he wished the discussion to be
deferred for further consideration.

The Court is now (three o'clock) sitting ; but it
h prubabll, !torn the above suggestion, the questton
Seal lot be finally decided this day.

The Prince Roccosat, Russian Minister at the
Conn of Sardinia, dined yesterday with Lord and
Lady LANSDOWNE. We understand his Excellency
is a most accomplished young Nobleman, possessing
a vast knowledge in ancient and modern literature.
Our Readers already know that the solitary sledge
wliich conveyed BONAPARTE from Smorgonie, also
contained CAULAINIOURT, the executioner of the Doke
D'Enghien. It is a circumstance not generally
known, however, that Cillucameower was educated
at the expence of the Prince 4f CONDE, the father of
the unfortunate victim to his Master's rage. What
niwt have been the feeling's of BONAPARTE while
alone in a sledge with this*monster of ingrati-
tude, if his own feelings and dispositions were not
" a little More than kin and less than kind ?"
It gives pleasure to every benevolent heart to hear
of the Charitable Subscription of all ranks in Lon-
don, towards the relief of the many thousand dis-
tressed Rus.iians, and it is most earnestly requested
that all Ministers of the Church, and of all other
plates of Worship, will cause notice to be given to
their Congregation on Sunday next, that they will,
on the Sunday following, preach a Charity Sermon
in behalf of the said distressed Russians, and have a
ccllection at each door of the said Church and other
places of worship.
