GOVERNMENT OFFICIAL BULLETIN.
" FOREIGN OFFICE, OCTOBER 22.

" General BLUCHER passed the Elbe, at Elmer, en
the 3d instant—beat the Fourth Corps d'Armee,
under BERTRAND, entrenched near Wartenberg :
His cavalry had penetrated as far as Dicben. Ge-
neral D'Yonrc, in effecting th; Isar, had taken
One Thousand Prisoners, Sixteen'Guns, and Seventy
Tumbrils.

" On the 4th the PRINCE ROYAL passed the Elbe
at Rosslan and Acken.

4, The Allied Troops from Bohemia were marching
cn Chemnitz."

JUNCTION OF BAVARIA WITH
THE ALLIES.
Government has received intelligence, that on the
26th oh. all the Bavarian Officers in the Garrison of
Leipsic were arrested by order of BONAPARTE ; acid
also that the accession of Bavaria to the Allied Cause
a' o been publicly notified on the Stage to the audi-
ence at the Opera House in Berlin.

In consequence of Marshal Sir Wu. CARR BERM..
PORD embarking at San Sebastian, to proceed m L•.s-
bon on military business, it has been erroneously
stated his Excellency was on his passage home for the
recovery of health ; we are assured h.y an officer lately
from the Continent, that his Excellency enjoys the
'most perfect health. There have several Officers of
the Portuguese Army lately arrived in England for
the recovery of their health and wounds :—among
whom are Major-General SPRY, Colonel T. N. HILL,
Lieutenant-Colonel DUDLEY HILL, Lieutenant-Colo-
nel CAMPBELL, and Lient.-Colonel OVALLY.

The 46th Regiment has been particularly success.
ful during the last volunteering in the Garrison of
Portsmouth, having received the greater part of those
fine lads who turned out from the two highly dis-
ciplined corps, the Cornwall and North Devon.—
Part of the 46th sailed lately for New South Wales,
and from present appearances there is every reason
to expect a second battalion for active service, having
been within the last two months equally fortunate in
recruiting.
COVRNT-GARDEN THRATRE.—Last night a new
Melo Drame, called 7 Ise Miller and his Mtn,
.was pro-
duced at this Theatre. The piece is of the German
School, and appears to be translated from that lan-
guage. The music is good ; the decorations are ad-
mirable ; and the Melo Drame has many claims to
public patronage. It was received with approbation ;
and should some judicious curtailments, particularly
in the banditti scene in the cave, take place, it pro.
mises to be a considerable and continued favourite
with the public. Mr. LISTON was excellent in his
part, and Miss Boom was universally applauded du-
ring her representation. The Piece was announced,
amidst loud approbation, for a second representatioon.
The House was crowded to excess.,
Early on Monday morning, a dreadful fire broke
out in New Church street, in the neighbourhood of
Smithfield, Dublin ;—one house was entirely con.
turned, and the adjoining houses much damaged.
Mrs. CAMPBELL, who owned the house entirely con-
sumed, fell a victim to the flames : she was found
dead by a watehman, who broke open the door and
alarmed the neighbourhood. The High Sheriffs,
together with the piquet of the Sd Royal Lancashire,
attended until the flames were got under.
CORN-EXCHANGP, MARK-LANE, OCTOBER
Our Wheat Market was duU this morning, having an increase
to our firmer supply by the arrival of several vessels from Suf-
folk ; what few sales have been effected were at a reduction of
es. per quarter from Monday's prices. The quantity of Barley
now here is very considerable, but that of fine quality sold bill as
well as on Monday, while the second sorts are searcely saleable,
at a decline of es. and 3s, pqr quarter. Oats and Pea) are es. per
quarter shaper, la other alticles Ow is ro altaratms.

. MURDER OF CLIFFORD.
The following Letter appeared in a Morning Paper
of this day, addressed to the Editor :
" Sin—A deference for opinkat, which I respect
much more than my own, Induced me, however re-
luctant, to notice a statement which 4peared in your
• paper of the 27th nf September. I am, in that state-
ment, represented as having torn two confidential
letters, addressed by the unfortunate Leary to two of
his relatives in Ireland.- If such an act would, in any
individual, under any circumstances, be a flagrant
violation of one .of the most sacred laws of society,
how indignant must I feel to be supposed capable of
commitsing it, on the occasion, and under the circum-
stances, , in question/ -But " mark how :a plain tale
, will put this statement down." Leary, perceiving,
fitta the conversation which had taken place be-
tween him aud.Colonel O'Kelly, on the Sunday even-
ing, that he could not convince that Gentleman of
hisinnoceoce- of the actual perpetration of the crime
for which he was the next morning to suffer. requested
me to draw up an appeal to the publie,. in which he
would, he said, most solemnly, and most unequivo-
cally, assert that innocence. I accordingly did draw
vp the first of the fallowing papers, which he would,
most willingly, have signed ; he had himself, in the
course of the night, drawn up, and actually signed,
the second ; and would have put both. into the hands
of the Sheriff, the moment before he was launched
vintireternity, had "not, of more mature reflection,
• thought it, prudent to advise him to suppress them,
• and to let, things take their usual regular course.
.• (That Ahii latter object was riot accomplished is
-nwing.tovhat took place, from another quarter, im-
mediately before his execution). In the propriety of
my advice he most readily and most cheerfully ac-
quiesced ; and I destroyed, as I thought, the papers
in his presence ; the fragments, however, were, I
through the officiousness of one of the turnkeys, col- I
lected and pasted upon paper, ind are now in my pos-
session. Their contents are transmitted to you for
the satisfaction of the public, and are, with the ex-
• ceptiou of the names, verbatim as follows. That
they are faithful copies may. be ascertained by your-
self; if you -will do me the honour of calling on me'
for the purpose. The slightest inspection of them
will shew that they were nut taken from any body in
any of the passages of the prison ; that they were not
addressed to any of his relatives in Ireland.; that they
were not, in short, either letters or sealed papers of
any description, but merely. declarations of Leary's
innocence of the actual murder of Clifford.
" I have the honour to be, Sir, with great respect,
" Your obedient humble Servant,' .

HONOLJUD Sit —fiefore this paper can meet the eye of the
Public, to wham I ems eat it maybe communicated, 1 shall be
arraigned before the dibunal of the Eternal, confronted, per-
baps, with him for whose murder I shall have undergone the
dreadful sentence of the law.. With all the solemnity of one un-
der circumstance, so appalling to human nature, I attest the
Ge EAT ARBITER of my Destiny, who will, I ant persuaded, if I
!.; make him party to a falsehood, plunge me into eternal perdition;
I attest the spirit of the murdered Clifford, who must, if [ern.'
. bruea lily hands in his blood, cry out far vengeance on my guilty
soul; 1 attest Heaven and Earth to witness that 1 did not contd.
Mite, either by word or by deed, to the perpetration of the trims.
for *hick lam going' to suffer. I acknowledge, however, the
justice of my punishment, because I ought, is I had it in my
' power, to have prevented its perpetration. For this, and for
• every other offence of which I stand culpable in the sight of the
Assaiou•ry, 1 am most heartily sorry, and most earnestly im-
plore pardon of him, of my country, and of my fellow-citizens.
I throw myself upon the mercy of my crucified Rensessza, and
through his merits alone, humbly, but firmly, hope for the remis-
sion of my minifold transgressions. I have, with the most un-
doubting confidence in his all-merciful goodness, endeavoured to
• prepare for the awful moment which is to usher me into his im-
mediate presence; 1, In imitation Of his divine example, most
cordially forgive my promecuturs, and die in sentiments of the
most perfect charity with all mankind.

City of London."

" 1 o the lizaela se Fails ea to whom I am in hopes to see
this morning or this day, & to the Public at large.— I own that I
ant not guilty of the crape that I ant to suffer for this morning,

neighbouring surgeon, expired in a very short time.
The woman was immediately secured, and has since
been committed to Lancaster gaol.
