FRENCH P4IPERS.

PARIS, NOVEMBER 4.
Her Majesty the EMNIZSB QUEfili and REtENT has
received the following accounts of the situation of the
Army on the Slat October
The two regiments of cuirassiers of the King of
Saxony, forming part of the Ist corps of cavalry, re.
mained with the French' army, When the Emperor
quitted Leipsic, he caused the Duke of Vicenza to
write them the subjoined letter, and sent them back
to Leipsic to serve as the King's guard.
is When the arvarian defection was certain, there
was still a Bavaria* battalion with the army. His
Majesty caused the subjoined letter to be written to
the Commandant of the battalion by the Major.
General.

" The Emperor left Erfurt on the 25th.
" Our army has operated in tranquillity its move.
ment on the Mein. Arrived at Gelnhaesen, on the
29th, an enemy's crrps of 5 cr 6000 men was per.
ceived, which we learnt from the prisoners was the
advanced guard of the Austrian and Bavarian army.
This advanced guard was repulsed, and compelled to
retire. The bridge which the enemy had cut down
was promptly re-established. We also learned from
the prisoners, that the Austrian and Bavarian army,
from 60 to 70,000 strong, coming from Brannan,
had arrived at Hanau, and thought to block up the
road of the French army.
" On the evening of the S9ths the tiraaeurs of the
enemy's advanced-guard were pushed beyond the
village of Langensbolde ; and at seven in the evening
the Emperor and his head-quarters were in that
vil-
lage, at the castle of Issenbourg.
44 OD the 30th, the Emperor mounted his horse at
nine in the morning ; the Duke of Tarensam advan-
ced with 3000 tirailkurs under the orders of General
Charpenter. The cavalry of Sebauiani, General
Priest's division of the guard, and the cavalry of the-,
old guard followed t the rest of the army was a
march behind. The enemy had placed six battalions
at the village of Ruckingen, in order to intercept all
the roads leading to the Rhine. Some cannon-shot
and a charge of cavalry made their battalions retire
with precipitation. Arrived at the skirt of a wood
two league, from lianas, the tirailleurs soon en-
gaged. The enemy was forced Into the wood to the
point of junction between the old and new road...
Not being able to oppose the superiority of our in-
fantry, he endeavoured to avail himself of his great
numbers ;he extended his fire on his right. 4 bri-
gade of 2000 tirailleurs of the 2cl corps, commanded
by General Dubreton, was employed to check him ;
and General Sebastian sauced to be executed with
success, in the open part of the wood, several charges
on the enemy's tisaillenti. Our 5000 tirailleurs thus
kept at bay the whole enemy's army, gaining time
insensibly till three in the afternoon.

The artillery having arrived, the Emperor or.
dered General Curial to advance at them: de charge
upon the enemy with two battalions'of chasseurs, and
drive them beyond the defile; General Drouet to de-
bouche on the, plain with 50 bieces of cannon; Nan-
souty with all &Mast iani's corps, and the cavalry of the
old psi, to charge vigorously the enemy in the plain.
" All these dispositions were exactly executed.—
curial overthrew several battalions. At the mere
sight of the old guard, the Austrians and Ilavarial
were terrified. From•fifteen to fifty pieces of caanot
were successively placed in battery, with the activit)
and coolness which disningaish Drouet. General

Nosousy adeamed 'on the right of these batted.,
sod vbsoged 10,000 enemy's cavalry by General
' values Major of the *ld Goads by the St. .Gesansitt
division of cuirassiers, and successively by the grans,
diets and dragoons of the gnards. All than chine*
had a fortunate result, The enemy's cavalry was
overthrown and Imbued; many squares ,of blame/
were broken ; the Austrian regiment ,Tor&s, and the
Huhn: of Prince Schwartzenberg, were entirely da-
-1 sawed. The enemy precipitately abandoned the
road of Frankfort, which he blockaded, and all the
ground occupied by his left. lie retreated, and soon
fell into complete route, •
41 It was five o'clock ; the enemy made an effort
on their right to disengage their left, and give time
to the latter to retire. General Friant sent two bat.
talons of the Old Guard to a farmhouse, situated on
the old road of Henan. The enemy was driven from
it, and his right compelled to retreat. Before sit in
the evening he had repassed in rout the little river
Kinfzig.
“ The victory was complete. The enemy, lobo pee.
tended to block up the whole country, was obliged to
evacuate the road of Hanau and Frankfort.
“ We have made 6000 prisoners, and taken several
colours and pieces of cannon. The enemy had sit
Generals killed.or wounded, Makes is about 100000
in killed, wounded, and prisoners I MOW only horn
four to 500 killed or wounded. Ws bad engaged
only about ,5600 tirailletuv, four battalions it the sad
Guard, about 60 squadrons of cavalry, and 120
pieces of cannon.
" At daybreak of the Slst thoosemy had retired
upon Aschaffenburg. The Emperor continued hi;
movement, and at three in the afternoon was a:
Frankfort,

" The colours taken in this battle, and those taken
at Wuhan and Lelpsic, have beeen sent forward
to Paris.

The cuirassiers, the mounted grenadiers, the
dragoons, made brilliant charges. Two squadrons
of the Garda d'Nosneur of the sth regiment, com-
manded by Major Salucis, particularly distinguished
themselves, and gave reason for presuming what may
be expected from this corps next spring, when they
will be perfectly organised and disciplined.
66 The General of Artillery of the Army, Nourrit,
and 'General Devaux, Major of Artillery of the
Guard, have merited to he distinguished ; General
Letort, Major of Dragoons i 1 the Guards, although
wounded in the battle of Wachau, would charge at
the head of his regiment, and had his horse killed.
66 On the 51st, in the evening, the grand head-
quarters were at Frankfort.
64 The Doke of Treviso, with two divisions of the ,
young guard, and the first corps of cavalry, was at
Gelnhausen. The Duke of Reggio had arrived at
Frankfort. Count Bertrand and the Duke of Ra,
gusa were at Hanau ; General Sebastiani was on the
Nidda.

In a Second and Third Edition, yesterday, we ez.
clusively announced the arrival of Paris Papers to the
7th instant, containing the impoitant intelligence of
130aAPaara's.personal escape to Mentz ; for, after the
falsehoodi *it% which his Journalists have recently
amuses us, 4 -are not w credulous as to believe that
he brougla with him 100,000 men. The very article
which thus raises the numbers of his deTeated why,
previously informs u?, that BONAPARTE arrived at
Mentz on the 2d, ea's-1y in the morning, with"“ part
of his Guards, and a)? their artillery !"

Although we are still without any official details
from Sir CHARLES STEWART or Lord CATHCART, of
events subsequent to the great battle of Leipsic, we
have abundance of evidence, even from the French
Papers, that the march from Leipsic to Erfurt, was
not effected without daily, nay hourly disasters to the
rettestting army. The Chapter of Accidents from
Erfurt to the Rhine, is now before us: it is of course
an wart? statements but it nevertheless affords us
many yr:minds for congratulation. Bavaria is in
downright earnest in her exertions to overthrow the
tyranny to which she has so greatly contributed. The
main Bavarian army, in conjunction with an Austrian
corps from Brannan, having gaiued by rapid marches,
die vicinity of the. Rhine, has come in contact with
the retreating French army at Hanau. Their
achievements are unwillingly recorded in the Papers
before us, and they seem to have given way to su-
perior numbers only,,their enemies literally cut a
passage through them.
The French official Report (for the appellation of
Bulletin has been long since abandoned) continence:
by statit-,g, that the Emperor, with his usual Magna-
nimity, had dispensed with the services of the Saxon
and Bavarian regiments. It was, in fact, unsafe to
trust them any longer, and they owe him no gratitude
for his lenity he was aware that the Bavarian army
was waiting for him at Hanau, and he did not wish
to witness a repetition of the scene that was exhibited
at the Battle of Leipsic, by the Bavarians turning
their arms against the French troops.
Froni the 25th to the 29th ult. the French army
were permitted to retreat in tranquillity—on the latter
day, however, they were attacked at Gilnhausen by
the advanced guard of the Bavarian and Austrian
arihys and, if we are to believe the French statements,
the assaiWnts Were repulsed. Their main body then
came up, and on the morning of the 30th ig the Em-
peror, mouuted on horsebick"—an expression which
implies that his presence was necessary. Sit batta-
licns of the Allies were posted so as to cut off all the
avenues to the Rhine—their dispositions seem.to have
been excellent ; but they were, nevertheless, out-
manoeuvred—for BONAPARTE is constrained to admit
that his titailleuts lucceeded in 46 gaining time" for
!he bringing-up of his best troops and all his remain-
ing artillery. The brunt of the action, therefore, fell
upon his cavalry, an arm in which he was no doubt
decidedly superior, and they manfully cut a passage
!ur him through the solid squares of Bavarian and
Austrian infantry and cavalry which were opposed
theme ,

The result of fte•action Put the French in posses_
ion of the tinge towards the khine, for the Allies
are said to have retired to AKhaffenburg. Their
rs
loss is estimated", by the French at 10,000 in killed
our.ded, and prisoners, while with great .rang froill
they compete their own at four or 500. This is too
isurd to merit i 4a7e contradiction. Eighty aqua.
of cavalrf, One hundred and twenty pieces of
UMW, four battalions of the old guard, and 5,000
.iflemen (Tirailleurs), composed the force opposed
o the Allies.: In this enumeration we perceive An
'dmissioo, that the formidable attitude of the Allies
eadered it highly necessary that I)%74PARTE should
gain time" to bring 1i p the elite of his army.
One observation cannot fail to present itself to our.
waders on the perusal of these details : the retreat
the wreck of the French army from Erfurt to the
Mine has been effected with so much rapidity,
':lat even the Cossacks have been outstripped ; and
at for a celerity of movement on the part of the al.
ed Bavarian and Austrian army, which their ho.
,ourable zeal in the great cause must have alone given
firth to, we should not have heard of this interrup.
ion at katiau. It is also evident, we think, that the
greater part of the French troops which have arrived
+t Mentz consists of cavalry.

his command."

The following are from the New York Paper of
the 30th September :
We learn, by a Gentleman who arrived yester-
day in the steam-boat, that on Saturday, the 18th,
Commodore Chauncey, with his fiezt, left S ickett's
Harbour, with about forty open boats ; and that
on Monday afternoon he passed Pultneysville.
14 We further learn, that all our cannon had been
brought over to the American side ; from Fort George
it was reported, that all the Americans had left Fort
St. George, and had arrived at Fort Niagara. It was
supposed that the whole of the American forces
were destined for Kingston. Six sloops from New
York, full of troops, had arrived off Grvenbnsh,
and were still on board the sloops as late as 9 o'clock
on Tuesday morning.

" A prisoner on beard the President was informed
by an Officer, that during their cruize they had cap-
tured twenty-seven vessels, thirteen of which were
Greenland fishermen ; five of them were burnt, and
eleven ransomed ; the remaining eleven were man-

" Our accounts from Cadiz are of an unfavourable
description ; the fever is said to have very consider-

ISRMISH ARMY TN FRANCE.

A priiate kiter from the British army in the Sohth
of France, of a late date, states, that two French
Gentlemen had come over to the British outposts to
avoid the Conscription, which wits executing with
the most distressing rigour'. Twelve hundred new
Conscripts had, a day or two before, joined the army
in that neighbourhood : they were not merely hyr,
but absolutely °Wirral
These gentlemen reparted the whole French army
opposed to Lord WtiIINGTON at 60,000 men, of
which only 12,000 were in advance at Fort de Luce.
The Plymosth Chromic's, of Tuesday, received this
morning, presents some late and interesting intelli-
gence, should it Prove correct. The following is
the article alluded to :
" PLYMOUTH, NOVEMBER 9.
cs A Gentleman, who arrived last night from Truro,
has informed us, that the CHANCE cutter bad arrived
at Falmouth with impOrtant intelligence from Lord
WELLINcrioN before Bayonne, stating that his Lordship
had actually carried a considerable post, called the
Fort de Luce, an outwork of the garrison of Bayonne;
and that he was bombarding the tows day-and eight,
which was eipeCted to surrender almost immediately.
This account was believed it Truro."

-The Fort alluded to in the above paragraph is the
sarae that our Army letter mentioned to be occupied
by 12,000 men. If this post has been taken by our
troops it will facilitate the fall of Bayonne : hut the
plare has been much strengthened of late, and we
are apprehensive will retpt;re same drubbing to in
duce a surrendrr.—To-morrow will bring the regular
accounts from Fi!month, when we shall learn what
accounts have acLually been brought by the Chance.

By letters recently received from Oporto, we learn,
that at that port and Figueia, upwards of 2900 con-
valescent British troops are assembled, in readiness
to proceed to Lord WELLINGTON.
C .ptain MAGENDIE, son of the Bishop of BANGOR,
is appointed Aid-de-Camp to General Sir GEORGIC
HEWETT.
St LT has ordered, that those corps whose strength
is no: one thousand men, are to send immediately to
the depot of their regiments their eagle and their Lind.
Where there are no eagles to take, none can be taken.
BONAPARTE quitted MOSCOW, it Was said, for want
of suaicientfiring; at Leipsic ue seems w have got
sore than he wanted.

Among the French Commanders noticed as still 11
with BONAPARTF, we observe BERTHIER, MACDONALD,
MOItTIEN /OLPINOT, MAIthIONT, BERTRAND, SEIAS•
TIAN!, Nassotrry, and some others of inferior note.
The German Papers arc incorrect and contradictory
in this respect : but we believe that among the Mar-
shals, PosiaTowgt, and AVGEREAU ; among the
Generals commanding corps, Reosras, BERTRAND
(Count of Lobatt), and LAUItiSTON ; and among thel
Generals of Division, SocHara, BREMER, and Diai-1
aanwsKl ; may be set down as either killed or taken.
We ibeve• beet, favoured by a most intelligent Cbr.
respondent with the following
_particulars respecting
the state of the public mind in France and Holland,
at the present crisis, particularly on the subject of the
Conscription—we inserted them in our Second Edi-
tion yesterday, but they ought to be generally known
as they rest en the best authority :
" Of the 4.00,000 men called for in France, 120,000
belong to former Conscriptions ; this call causes more
annoyance and distress than the 280,000, for great'
number's of the former class, not imagining they
would ever be ordered out, and particularly the Na-
tional Guards, have married and foi med establish-
ments; therefore the crash is great. In less than three
months the 1'20,000 willebe disciplined sufficiently
well to join the veterans, who say they do not like to
be mixed with the raw soldiers, on account of the
great disorder they are thrown into by those young
iones in any serious affair. There is no doubt but the
number waisted will be raised; for all the Marine con-
scripts, together with all the sailors from the Scheldt,
Brest, and Cherburg ships, probably fiom all the
lother ports, have been marched to the Rhine, escorted
lby the military like prisoners. No loan has yet been
announced; however the French are beginning to feel
taxation, which annoys them greatly more than tak-
ing away their sons: for sinless paternal affection op-
poses, they are enriched by the loss of those whom
they had before supported • but their purse visibly
Sinks in value by the othen Many possess advantages
from the Conscription, as those who remain behind ac-
quire for their labour a value which increases with the
scarcity of woi kmen. In this they are beginning to
smart ; every department, every town, is compelled
to give what is called a voluntary contribution for the
support of the war, and to preserve the integrity of
the Great Nation. The Prefects who tolerably will
know the depth of each man's purse in their divisian,
inform the merchants and others, that a certain sum
is expected from them, and they will send an autho-
rised officer to receive it. I have heard that Paris
was to furnish 6,000,000 of francs; Bruges 2,000,000.
They assess the towns rather from their supposed
wealth than from their population. All the enemy's
ships are gone to Antwerp from Flushing, which
shows how much they are exerting themselves to pro-
cure men, as at least 2000 will be obtained from these
ships, each of which will only require three or four
men to attend them. The crews they either send di-
rgct to the army, or place them in garrison at Ant-
*lmp ; replacing others whom they march away : can
One, therefore, be surprised if by such measures, and
such an extent, of territory, numerous armies are
raised ? But the morale is bad ;-4 frigates have left
the Texel. not for the purpose of annoying us, so
much as to get them and their Dutch crews in a safe
port—already does the Government expect a change
in Holland—not from the inhabitants so much, as
from the entrance in, and occupation of it by the
Allies. Never had a tyrant more insensible subjects,
and never were subjects so worthy of oppression.--.
They see the Allies at their gates, and yet their
energy is not awakened; and neither in Holland, or
the Netherlands, are there any regular troops—they
are slaves, and worthy to be so-10,000 Austrians
marched lately through Verdun—they use them ra-
ther cruelly as prisoners."

COVENT-GARDEN THEATRE. A new farce was
produced last night, and the name, as well indeed as
the plot, have at least the merit of novelty. It was
called The Invisibk Bridegroom. It is intended chiefly,
and that intention is accomplished, as a vehicle for
the versatility and ventriloquism of MATTHEWS, who
sustains the principal character.—The short story is,
that the invisible but not invincible Captain Squander is
engaged to be married, but unluckily, just in the act
of leaping into the arms of hii love, he leaps into
the arms of a bailiff, and exchanges the fetters of ma-
trimony for the fetters of law. The main business
of the piece is to account for the failure of the hero in
his appointment with the lady, which is done by seve-
ral ingenious contrivances of his servant Shit A, (NI AT.
THEWS) who personates many characters to maintain
the deception. The explanation of the tide is that
the Hero of the piece, stunge as it may seem, is
neither seen nor heard from beginning to end, although
he and his affairs occupy nearly the whole of the piece.
The result of course is the happy release and marriage
of the Captain. There is an underplot of a young
lawyer, who is always raking instead of reading, and
compelling his old uncle to pay his tailor's bills, pre-
tending that the charge is for law books. The uncle,
however, suddenly enters his nephew's chambers, and
discovers a veil and letters, that betoken the study of
love and not of law. There are several new and ludi-
crous situations, which shew a good deal of invention
and ingenuity on the part of the author; and the di-
alogue is generally spirited and well maintained.—
The author is greatly indebted to the exertions of the
performers.—The Piece was given out, but not with-
out opposition, for this evening.

Mr: inn', moved for a new trial in this ease. it
was an indictment against the Rev. Mr. Bingham, a
Clergyman and' Magistrate 'for Portsmouth, for a
conspiracy. The facts charged were, that he, as a
Magistrate' procured a house of his own to be licen-
sed, which increased the value of it £l5OO and up-
wards, with a view of selling
.it, and putting the
money in his pocket; and also in another count, for
putting a smalley. consideration in the deed than was
actually paid, with a view of defrauding the stamp
fluty.—Having heard Mr. Jekyll in favour of a new
trial, 'the Coure-refnaed the Rule, and strongly repro-
bated alb conduct of the Reverend Defend.uit.

GOODALL V. FLETCHER.
Mr. SCARLET moved the Court for a new trial, in
the cause of Goodall v. Fletcher. The grounds of
the Motion were, that no one witness was produced
on that trial who could, from their knowledge, give
any reasonable account of the plaintiff and his wife
living comfortably together, during the laseeight or
nine years ; that the Attorney General, who con-
ducted the plaintiff's cause on that occasion, was
pleased to .state to the Jury, with all that energy of
language for which be was so remarkable, that the
defendant's guilt was aggravated from the circum-
stance of his being the confidential attorney and ad-
viser of the plaintiff. This, however, was not the fact;
that the letters, on which the Attorney General had
laid so much stress, were all written after the crimi-
nal intimacy had-taken place, and were consequently
not written for the purpose of seduction. The Lear-
ned Ceunsel here explained the passages in the let-
ters, which had from evident misrepresentation, been
Made to imply, that poison had been contemplated.
Couaree-She had eight children by her' husband,
and no doubt the Jury viewed those letters as written
for the express purpose of mating an undue impres-
sion in the mind of the plaintiff's wife, and considered
them an aggravation of his guilt.—Rule refused.
8.--CRIMINAL INFORMATION.
The ATTORNEY GENERAL applied for a rule to
shew cause why a Criminal Information should not
be filed against a Gentleman named Gurney, for at
tempting to provoke Mr. Giffard, a Gentleman well
known at the Bar, to fight a. duel. The facts of the
ease, as detailed in the affidavits, were as follow :
In the early part of last Session, Mr. Giffard had, in
the course of his professional duties, to attend a Corn-
sdittee of the House of Commons, on which occasion,
et number of. witnesses were examined, amongst
whom was the Rev. Mr.' Gurney, of Portsmouth, fa-
ther of the Gentleman against whom the present ap.
plication was made. In the discharge of his duty,
Mr. Giffard felt himself called, on to comment, in
strong terms, on the evidence of the Rev. Mr. Gur-
ney. The day after, Mr: Giffard was waited on by
in officer of Marines from the Rev. Gentleman, to
demand an explanation of the observations he had
made ' • this, however, Mr. Giffard declined. Soon
after, Mr. Giffard was informed it was by mistake
an explanation of his speech had been demanded,
the explanation asked, should have been of an expres-
sion used by him to a Solicitor in a private room
namely—" That the Rev. Mr. Gurney's evidence
was most extraordinary." An-explanation, however,
• was still declined, on the part of Mr. Giffard. About
ten weeks after this, Mr. Giffard was going up Chan-
cery-lane, and-a friend with him, when' he was met
by Mr. Gurney, jtin. who came ty to him, saying—

DUBLIN COMMISSION INTELLIGENCE, NOV. 2.
CnIIEINATION, CONSPIEACV, AND INTENT TO MURDER.
A. tiial of a very interesting nature occupied the
Commission Court during the entire of yesterday.—
It was called on about ten o'clock in the morning,
and did not terminate until e;glit in the evening.. The
prisoners (eirthur Cowl& and./Ifikr Kelly) who were
journeymen coachmakers, stood indicted for conspir-
ing to murder Richard Couchman, a coach-painter,
brought4poer frOm England by Messrs. Hutton ard-
Sons, f"he purpose ot improving that branch ot the-
trade in their establishment. There was a second in-
dictment, under Lord Ellenborough's Act, for cut-
ting and stabbing with intent to maim and disfigure.
The prosecutor was examined. He appeared in a
most delicate and precarious state of health, occa-
sioned by the attack which had been made upon him,
and which was, perhaps, in its nature, the most vio-
lent, atrocious, and brutal, that had ever come before
a court. He delivered his testimouy in a most can-
did and conserntious manner. What be proied
went chiefly to affect the prisoner Conolly, from whom
he swore positively' he had received the first blow.--;
In point of fact, it appeared, that he had three des-
perate incisions on his head--several triangular
wounds (supposed the stabs ot a baybnet) in his legs,
and a severe injury on the side and ribs. His arms
were also most dreadfully bruised, and he has been
ever since (the 27th of August) under the care of
Surgeon Peile far from being well. .
William Underwood, also in the employment of
Messrs. Hutton, proved, that he bad just parted from
Couchman, when he was attacked, but that he was
near enough to see the entire transaction, and that he
saw Conolly strike the prosecutor ; that there was a
party of fifteen.or twenty, and that Kelly was amongst
them. He also said he hid received a slight blow
himself on the side, and that Kelly raised up his
bludgeon to strike him ; but that he could not posi-
tively say whether the blow he had actually received
came from him or not, there was so much contusion.

The defence set up was an alibi, which, it seems,
was proved to the satisfaction of the Jury, who ac-
quitted the prisoners. A great shout was set up by
their friends when the verdict came down.
