Bondet, General of Div;sieri, of
great Merit, died lately in Budtveis.
According to letters from Vienna, of the 19th inst.
his Imperial Majesty arrived that day at Schoenbren,
after having passed 36 hours in Brunn, chiefly em-
ployed in regewing the troops cantoned in that quar-
ter. It is said that part of the French troops, who,
about the end of last month, marched to the banks of
the Moraw and Raab, have received orders to return
to-the positions they occupied at the conclusion of the
fiest armistice. The Austrian troops are also said to
have been ordered to march back to the South of
Hungary, from the banks of the Danube.
The two armies of Antwerp and Flanders have
formed a junction, under the name of the Army of
the North.

VIENNA, SEPTEMBER 19."

His Imperial Majesty, who, on the frith instant,
set out for Bruno, arrives this afternoon in Schoen-
brun, on his return from that place. On his journey
he reviewed the troops who Compose the corps com-
manded by the Marshal of Auerstadt. At the same
time, when the Emperor left Schoenbrun, Count Buh-
na, Aid-de-Camp of the Emperor of Austria, set out
on his return to Buda, where his master is at present.
He was charged with a letter from the Emperor Na
poleon to his Austrian Majesty. The Duke of Frioul,
Grand Master of the Palace; presented Count Buhna
before his departure with a precious stone of great
value, on the part of his Imperial Majesty, from which
circumstance, and some cbservations said to have
been made by Count Buhna, it is generally inferred
that the negociations are drawing fast to their con-'
elusion. Mr. 13a1daoer still holds the place of Direc-
tor of the Austrian Cabinet, although it has been
positively asserted that he was removed from that
station. •
LINTZ, SEPTEMBER 17.
The last accounts from Vienna bring nothing rela-
tive to the negociations for Peace. According to
some, a Russian Plenipotentiary was expected to rake
an active part in the negociations, in orderjo regulate
in future the relations between Russia, France,
Au,tria, and the States of the Confederation of the
Rhine. Nothing, however, is publicly known con-
cerning the progress of the negociations.
We learn from Hungary that the different Austrian
-corps which were sationed between Kaschaw and
Neuhausel, have within these few days broken up,
and approached nearer to the Danube.. A strong co-
lumn has even passed that river in order to extend
itself along the Raab, and thus cover the fortress of
Cornorn. The corps of the Archduke Palatine is the
only one which remains in its former position near
Neuhausel.
Accounts from Klattan state, that the troops in the
service of the late Elector of Hesse, are still in that
circle, and have extended themselves more southerly,
so that a division of them is in Stagern, adjoining to
the circle of Prachia and Budweis. A cordon of
Austrian troops extends over Wirtenberg, Ober-'
weildaw, Kuschwarda, Robin, l3tichit, Oberplaw,
Schwarzbach, Unterweilda, and Hochinfurt. This
cordon, which passes along the 13 avarian frontiers, is
very numerous, and consists of the infantry regiment
of Spork' and of militia. In many places, as at Wir-
tenberg, there are three companies. Near Wieldaw,
Kuschwarda, and Wallern, intrenchments and re-
doubts have been thrown up, which are in part al-
ready complete. There are also five redoubts behind
Budweis, which, however, are unoccupied. How
long this position may continue, is uncertain, as the
grater part of the militia of Bohemia has been
drawn under the cannon of Prague, and a part of the
militia which forms the cordon has received orders to
break np for the same part. Near Kuschwarda there
is some artillery. The militia, it is understood, will
lay aside their present uniform, and provide them-
selves, at their own expellee, with a uniform sintiltu
to that of the Austrian regular troops, from which it
is conjectured that they will soon be made use of to
supply the deficiencies in the troops of the line,
though this appears to be inconsistent with the as-
surance given them when they were first established.
—A new militia (besides the cld, called the Land-
wher), is likewise forming, in which all persons ca•
pable of healing arms are to be liable to serve. It is
to be called the Landstrum. It is not, however, ex• 1
liSected to be of equal service with the other.

Otte thew, set out to day for Peis. It Is sai4 that
it waited here for directions from Vienna, lzhether it
should proceed to that capital or Paris. The Russian
Prince Solinskey set out to-day for Strasburg, by
Stutgard. Six hundred Hessian troops have passed I
through Stutgard, -sent by the Grand Duke to com-
pleat his contingent in the grand army.
Nothing new has been received fin= the Tyrolese
frontiers. Fla the Voralberg they write, that all
the troops that were in Itohenems' Dornbirm, and
Feldkirch, broke up on the 14th for Plandenz, so
that an attack on-the peasants near Bruz and Dales
Might be kxpected.—Haerlees Courant, Sept. 30.

CANSTAD, SEWEM BE R so.
Seberal Frenck troops, and among them numerous
detachments of horse, have lately passed through this
place on their march to Bavaria and Austria, with
large transports of ammunition, from Strasburgh.—
On the other hand, several hundred Lieutenants,
Serjeants, and Corporals, have been sent from Vienna
to Strasbnrgh, apparently destined to form new corps.
The line of telegraphs which is to extend from Stras-
burgh to Vienna, passing through Ulm, Munich, and
this town, is nearly completed.

Letters from Struburgh, of the 22d inst. state,
that the armistice, which expired on the 20th of this
month, has been prolonged for one month, with ad-
ditional stipulation-that hostilities are not to be recom-
t menced till six weeks after notice shall have been
given of the armistice being at an end ; they cannot,
therefore, be renewed before the sth of November.
BAYONNE, SEPTEMBER S.
A battalion of Poles, a numerous field-train, and
several detachments of troops, have lately marched
through this town, on their way to Spain. Accord-
ing to the last letters from Madrid, the position of the
French armies which cover the Capital, was as fol-
lows: the first corps, commandikl by Marshal Victor,
was at Toledo ; the 2d, under the orders of Marshal
Souk, at Plasentia ; the 4th, under the command of
General Sebasiiani, at Aranjuez; and the 6th, com-
manded by Marshal Ney, in Salamanca. General
Suchet is said to have obtained fresh advantages aver by his MAJESTI'S command. Mr. PERCEVAL'S letter
Blake's army, which was advancing for the relief to him was sent off last Thursday, and he is expected
of Gerona. Being informed of this movement, Ge- from Scotland the beginning of next week.
neral Snuchet marched to meet the enemy, attacked ,
him in the fine position of San Domingo de Legna, At the Levee, yesterday, the only gentleman who
dislodged him, and cleared the valley of Brucal of kissed hands on his new appointment was Mr. PER-
the banditti who intercepted the communication by •
that vale cevan, who has succeeded his Grace • the Duke of
PORTLAND as First Lord of the TrCUSUI y.
It is understood, however, that the other arrange-
: ments are nearly completed, and will probably re-
ceive a public announcement next levee day.
Mr. ROBERT DUNDAS, who, it is understood, suc-
ceeds to the Colonial Department,has gone to Ireland
to arrange the papers of his office there, and is ex-
pected back again by Wednesday next.
It is not true as stated in some of the papers, that
Mr. ARBUTHNOT quits his situation ar the Treasury.
No succor has yet been named for Mr. Hus-

Paris Journals to the 26th ultimo, and Dutch
Papers and Letters from Holland to the Ist in-
stant, have arrived. Some passengers from Plush-
ing, who left that place on Sunday, have also reach-
ed town.

' On the 26th September the return of the sick in
'the hospitals was 9798. On the 27th the deaths were
48. On the 28th only 9 ; and no new patients
had been admitted during these two days. The in-
ference is, that the disease which has so dreadfully
afflicted our army is on the decrease ; indeed, we are
happy to add, that for-some days this had been ap-
parent. It is now ascertainel that much of the mis-
chief arose from our troops ~ring unripe fruit, and
drinking their allowance of gin by itself, instead of
mixing it with the stagnant water which they were
obliged to use. By the attention of the medical gen-
tlemen, this has been in a great measure remedied,
and the diet of the soldiers has been put under some
judicious restrictions.
The French had been making 'great preparations,
apparently with an intention of attempting to regain
possession of Walcileren. They had collected about
30,000 men in North Beveland ; and. on South Beve-
land they had raised batteries to prevent our ships
from getting round Flushing.
In the mean time our troops had been no less active
in repairing the fortifications of Flushing, and making
every preparation not only ro defend themselves, but
to repel every attack that might be made by the
enemy ; and, considet ing the sic kly state of our troops,
the progress that hasAreen made in the works is won-i
dci ful—indeed, if the health of the garrison was to be
judged of by the extent of the works they have ac-
complished, it would be inferred that they had none
unfit for duty in the place.
The attack, it was thought, would be made from
North Beveland ; but for the present the design is cer.
tainly abandoned. South Beveland has been entirely
evacuated by the French, and it was known when
these accounts came away that all their troops had
marched from the adjacent coast of Holland for the
shores of the Dan übe.—lt was reported in Holland
that hostilities wouLl certainly be renewed in that
quarter, and a confused rumour, that a battle hadj
actually taken place, was in circulation. The Tyre-
lese continued to stand their ground and were reported j
to have gained another victory over the oppressors of
their country.
Comparing these particulars with the accounts in j
the last German papers, we cannot doubt that some
impediments had occurred with threatened a rupture I
of the negotiation which has for same time been car-
rying en between France and Austria, and that NA-
POLEON had in consequence found it necessary to re-
'nforce his army, to be 'ready far every cenzin7eney.
But we cannot, from the contents of the Dutch pa-
pers (given in the preceding column), infer a strong
:Irobability of a renewal of hostilities. It ought, how-
•ver, to be recollected, that the conductors of the
' Dutch press are obliged to be very circumspect in the
idrnission of intelligence into their papers, that no-
/ ping may appear kI them to give offence to their
Master.
