Difpatches were this day received from General
Fox at Gibraltar; from Admiral Lord NELSON, off
Cadiz ; and alto from Admiral Comma ram, brought
to Plymouth by the Mama cutter, of 14 guns.

General Doi, attached to the German Legion,
embarked yefterday on board the &mom Betides
the Guards which we havit before Rated were to form
part of this expedition, it is reported that the 4th
and 23d Regiments Mill be embarked. The greated
anivity prevails, and it is probable we !ball be able
in a few days to announce the failing of this force.
The expedition in the Downs deftined for a dif,
fere= fereiee is in confulerable forwardnefs. A great
number of flat-bottomed boats have been provided
for it. They ars to carry fifty men each, and are
furnifhed with a piece of heavy ordnance on a plat-
form in their bow. Should a defeent,on the enemy's
cot& be the objea, thefe velfels are fo conftrudede
that they will be capable of forming a battery to cover
the landing of the men. It is Paid that General

FRENCH AND DUTCH JOURNALS.
We have received the flriner to the tyth, and the
latter to the r9th infant. They prefent no new in.
formation refpeitiag the effea produced at Berlin
by the parge of the French through Anfpacb. It
appears plain, however, that not even the meant}
officer in the army that committed the aggreffion
could be ignorant of the pofitive orders that had been
iffued by Nis ?ruffian Majesty that none of the belli.
gerent troops fhould be (offered to pars through the
Margraviate. They had even been publiffied in all
the places in that diftrie, bordering on Suabia.—
It is curious, however, to obferve that the very
terms of the Proclamation convey the idea that there
were grounds to croak that the injunaions of his
Pruffiaa Majesty would be difregarded. If fo, the
Court of Berlin mutt be fuppofed to have formed,
even before the outrage was committed, its refolu•
tion refpelting the conduct which it would follow in,
confequence. We are inclined to augur favourably
from the circumftance. The following is a copy
of the
PROCLAMATION.

According to the accounts in thefe journals, 80.
NAPARTE arrived at Donauwerth on the Danube on
the 7th inflant ; rather, however, f,,r the purpofe of
perfonally infpe&ing that pofition than eftablifhing
his head qiftrters there, which it appears were on the
6th init. at Nordlingen, about eighteen milts from
Donauwerth. If the French have obtained Wei:
ft..n of that town, the Austrians mutt have either re.
treated beyond the Lech, or fallen back upon their
pofitions in the Tyrol, leaving the road to Bdhemia,
and the upper part of Autiria, open to the enemy, if
they (hall be adventurous enough to advance in that
dircsHon. From the moment that the left wing of
the French reached the Danube, the polition of the
Auflrians at tins became untenable, and has confe-
quently, it ia to be prefumed, been abandoned.
The main armies muff have been in pretence of each
other Come days ago, and it is extremely probable, that
before this time one or more battles, important in their
confequences, have taken place.—Refpeaing antral
boa ili:ies, however, the French and Dutch Official
Journals are at complete variance. The former,
under the head of intelligence from Strafburgh, of the
sith, aliens, „that not a cannon (hot had been as yet
Ercd. although they had gone beyond many famous
pofitions, where it was expeaed the Atalrians
would have made an effort to maintain thernfelves."

The Dutch Official Gazette, on the contrary, af-
ferts, that on the 7th, two days prior to the date of
the Stralburgh article, a (harp aeion was fought near
AVembdingen. The following is the Dutch commu-
sncation alluded to :

" Hip!. otetnber 17.

"The French have pallid the Danube near Donau-
yeah. The Auftrians have retreated upon their
main army on the Iller. On the 7th of Oftober a
Fravy cannonade was heard on the former River.—
A number of wounded Attlizians arrived the fame
day at Nenburgh ; they relate that a (harp ation
wasf.ught on the fide of Vembdingen, which failed
Lear two hours. (Further particulars are promifed
in an Extraordinary State Gazette, to be publ(hed
en the tpth)."
If any fuck aftion has taken place, it was probably
in confequence of an attempt by the Auftrians to cut
iF die Bavarians and the corps under BeRNADOTTN,
on the preceding day were encamped at Weir-
fenburgh, between which place and Wembdingen the
engagement is fuppofed to have taken place. Had
the ref ult of the aCtion been very decifive, and in
favour of the French, we fhould have expefted it to
appear in the Paris papers of the 14th, as the intelli-
gence from the army appears to reach the capital in
four or five days.

THE I4AMBURGH MAIL

Arrived jut as this Paper was going to pref.:. The
accounts by this mail confirm the flatement in the
Dutch Official Journal, which we have given above,
of an aelion having taken place near ihiewburgh.—
The reafon for the filence of the French journals re-
;peeling an event that mull have been known in
Paris, is alfo pretty obvious—they had the wort of
the battle ! and having promifed his people nothing
but vi!lory, BONAPARTS avoids the detail of a battle
in which his invincible troops were defeat:d ! The
!mends of the hour does not permit us to offer any
ether remarks on the fubjoined articles received by
this Mail:

RATISBON, Ocr. 9.—The war is begun. An al-
tion took place between the Alsatians and French,
near Newburg, in which the former had the advan-
tage, and preferved their pofition. The accounts
received of this affair, mention a number of pri-
funers, but we mita wait for the official accounts
for accurate information on this fubjee, as well as
with refpea to the number of killed and wounded.

ANOTHER LETTER, SAME DATE.

It is now underftood that it was theview of the
Trench to pats the Danube with a body of troops,
v hich occafioned the above mentioned aftion. It is
expeaed that the French army will (eon attempt to
cf.reft a paffage over the Danube in feveral places.
Fasmcroar, OCT. 10.-011 the 12th, 13th, Or
T 4.th, a general battle is expelled between the French
Auftrian armies.

VIESNA, OCT. s.—(From the Court Gazette).—
•• The Imperial and Royal army, to the number of,
F4,0c0 men, is potted between Ulm and Memniin-
gen, (which two cities have been hattily fortified),
near the Iller and nn the two banks of the Danube.
This army is efpecially formidable, from its name-
TOM cavalry, which can as without impediment in
the extenfive plains of Suabia. It is hoped that by
the t ith of Oaober it will have been joined by the firlt
Ruffian army of 36,000 men, under Lieut. General
Kuvusow, by which it will be augmented to 140,000
men. By the 3oth of the fame month it will be
joined by the fecund Ruffian army of 58,000 men,
• under Generals Micusisou and BuXHOWDEN. Thus
the united forces of the two Imperial Courts in Ger•'
many will amount to about socsooo mai, without

•
reckoning the army in the Tyrol, and•the nnmeron
armies of *referve.". .
