STUTGARD, DEC.!.

We learn from Augfbourg, that two columns bf
Ruffian and Auflrian prifoners arrived there, on their
way to France, on the 27th and 28th ult. el-coned by
the troops of Baden. In the courfe of a few days,
the Ruffians who had laid down their arms at the
battles of Dierenltein and Gunterfdorf, and in the
plains of Moravia, were expeded at Augfbourg.
The workmen, affißed by the inhabitants of Mem-
mingen, continue the demolition of the works at that
place ; the people are happy in being thus freed from
the horrors of a liege.
Confiderable changes are talked of in Suabia re.
fpeaing the pollen-tons belonging. to the Teutonic
Order. Both French and Bavarian Officers have
lately been employed in making eilimates.

4 NOV. 29.

The Northern Journals continue to (peak in the
molt confuted manner of the march of the Ruf-1
Sian troops which are to join thofe under General
KUTUSOW. The following are Tome details upon'
this fubje6l, which are furni(hed by a letter from
Breflaw, and which appear the molt authentic,
although their correetnefs in all points cannot be
guaranteed. We learn from this fource, that, on
the arrival on the Banks of the Inn, of the army
under General KUTUSOW, it confifted only of five
columns, amounting in the whole to 30,000 ef-
feEtive men. A firth and feventh column, which
juined in Lower Aufiria, confifting of about t0,000,'
made the whole 40,000. It is not believed that this
army was ever ftronger, and, fince the opening of
the campaign, they have loft, according to a very
pobable ettimate, from ts to tfl,ooo men, in killed,
wounded, and prifoners. It is evident, therefore,
that they reckon on no more that, from 22 to 25,000
Men. _ _

The fecond Ruffian army, commanded by Gene-
ral MICHELSON, which has been marching fince the
month of Auguß, has reached ci-devant Poland,
about a month or five weeks lance. It is faid to be
from 40 to eo,oso ftrong. In fifteen days it might
be at the fcene of aaion. The firft columns have
already joined KUTllsow. This army is divided into
two grand divifions, which have marched in different
direetions ; one commanded by General BuxHovoEN,
was, for tome time, cantoned between Radom and
Koffenies, in WeQern Gallicia; and it was intended
fnould take a route by Southern PrulGa, but, inftead
of that, it marched towards Cracow, and without
patting through that city, marched immediately by
Balch, Troppau, and Jaggernfdorff, into Auftrian
Silefia. Three of its columns are Rill on the march :
amongft the latter are the regiments of Guards from
Peterfburgh, which had, for a long time, remained
Rationary in the environs of Wane, and which have
at length received orders to form part of this army.
The fecond grand divifion, commanded by Ma-
en eLSON in perfon, has traverfed the whole bf South-
ern Poland, and has from thence taken a Ilion road
to Breflau, where its advanced guard has arrived.—
According to the firft orders this divifion was to
march into Bohemia, but on its arrival at Breflau,
MICHELSON received orders, to march immediately
into At:alien Silefia, and to join the divifions under
TUSOW and BUTHOYDEN. MICHELSON is, it is,
faid, appointed Generalialmo of all the Ruffian
troops, and it is thought that this choice will give
general difpleafnre. This general is detefted by the
greater part of the other Ruffian Generals, who,
whillt they do juflice to his courage and his valour,
keep at a diflance from him on account of the fero-
city of his manners, which are altogether Ruffian,
and, who, befidei, are net infficiently acquainted
with his talents for holding a great command. Thus,
when all thefe divifions are united, they will form a
mats of Bo,oco men. General TOLSTOY is betides in
Lower Saxony at the head ;of four divifions, which
are deflined to cooperate with the Englifh, Hano-
verians, and Swedes.. Some other divifions of Ruffian
troops are fpoken of as being about to march for
Germany, and even as being already on their way,
but according to every calculation thefe troops,
whatever may be their number and deltination, will
not arrive at the theatre of war for three months, and
we flatter ourfclvc: that before that time the war will
be terminated.

We have at length the fatisfaftion to (tate, that
yerierday afternoon theVicroay, with the remains of
Lord Nstsoll on board, came in fight off Sheetnefs.

Another French fquadron is now at tea. The
Ocean cartel, Which arrived at Plymouth on SatUrday
from Lilbon, was boarded on the 14th inftant in lat.
47. 3o N. long. 7 W. by a French frigate, and plun•
dered of every moveable article that could be carried
on board the frigate. This ♦e(fel is one of a fquadron
confilling of eleven French men of war, feven of
which appeared to be of the line, and which failed
from Brett the day before, viz.—on Friday the
t 3th inßant. The deßination of this fquadron is not
known, but as Admiral CORNWALLIS'S fleet could be
at no great dillanee from the quarter in which the
Ocean was boarded, we have Tome hopes that it will
not efcape.

Accounts received at the Admiralty confirm the
above intelligence, and add that the frigate which
boarded the Ocean was full of troops. A veffel was
difpatched from Plymouth immediately after the
arrival of the Ocean to inform Admiral CoattwaiLis
of the cncmy being at fea.

We are happy to announce, that the Skelton Wit
and the Worceffer, from Bombay ; the Huddart,
the Ocean, the Harriott, the United Kingdom, mid
the Lord Keith, from Bengal, have arrived off Dover.

The tranfports, with troops, which were driven
back to the Downs laft week by contrary winds,
failed again yelterday for the Wefer.

FRENCH AND DUTCH JOURNALS.

Since our laft, we have received the former to the
ith, and the latter to the isth infant.
The accounts in thefe papers from Moravia do not
come down fo late as thole received through Ham-
burgh. The Batavian State Gazette of the 12th
mentions, indeed, the vi Cory gained by the French on
the zd, and promifesthat the details (hall begiven in the
next number. In the next, however, (a Gazette Ex-
traordinary publiihed on the 13th), a kind of apology
appears for the omiffion of the promifed particulars•
But there feems to have been two Editions publiihed
of that number, and we underftand that Minifters
have a copy, in which it is exprefsly Rated that the
lofs of the Allies was 40,000 men, befides the whole
of the Ruffian artillery, which is precifely what was
Rated in the account fent to the. French Minißer at
Hamburgh. Still, however, we are without any de-
tails in there papers refpeaing the tranfaaions of the
3d, 4th, and sth infant. Indeed the French Papers
could contain nothing, the dißance of Paris from the
fcene of aition being too great to admit of accounts
being received there by the 9th, fo as to appear in
the Moniteur of the 10th

The Hamburgh Mail, due yetterday, has not ar-
rived, by which we cape& to receive our firft intelli-
gence from the fcene of adion. A letter has, how-
ever, been received from Cuxhaven, dated the 14th
inftant, which agrees in its general complexion with
the accounts brought by the laft Mail. It was tranf-
mitted by one of the tranfperts belonging to the firft
Expedition, which has returned to the Downs.—The
following is a copy of that part of it which relates
to the armies :

" We have jua now received a further account of
the operations of the allied armies againfe thofe of
France ; the fighting laLed four days, and the French
were beaten with the lofs of thirty-five thoufand men.
The King of Pruffia has declared war, and has put
himfelf at the head of his army, and has abfolutely
marched againft the French."
That the refult of the Aaions on the 3d and two
following days was favourable to the Allies, is
farther confirmed by the mailer of the Triton, whick
arrived at Hull laft Wednefday. This veffel left
Hamburgh three days before, that is on the 15th
intl. two days later than the laft letters. When the
failed, no doubt whatever was entertained at Ham-
burgh that the a'tions on the 4th and sth had ter-
minated in favour of the Auftro Ruffian army. The
aaions were reported to have been very bloody, and
in the end highly difaßrous to the French.
