The rigour of the season, the bad weathers and the
multiplied bivouacs, have increased' the ravages of
disease among the troops, whose health had been
already impaired by the fatigues of the campaign.—
The hospitals in the rear of the army are full, and
the toads are covered with dead horses. The Ppt-
fect and the MaYor of Metz, the Sub-Prefect Ad;
Theonville, and in general all the population of the
Messin, have deserved the praises of the Emperor.
ENTRANCE -MT° SWITZERLAND or THE ARMY OF- Till
PRINCE OF scHWARTZENBERO, COMPOSED OF REIF
TRIANS, RUSSIANS, BAVARIANS), WURECESIEVEGataip
AND itADINERS.
• On the 20th December, the Duke of Bellune had
his head-quarters at Strasburg ; the third corps of
cavalry, with a division of infantry, occupied-Col-
mar, Landab,':Strasburg, Schelestadt. Neubresacb,
and Huninguen, were armed and provisioned. Coup
Rcederer, the Extraordinary Commissioner, anal&
ron de. Bellevile, the Maitre des Requets, had
solved to remain at Strasburg, to animate the as
Lionel guards.
The Army of Schwartzenherg, estimated at one
hundred thousand men, including 15,000 Bavarians,
8000 troops of Wurtemburg, 4.000 of Baden, and the
Russian corps of Wittgenstein, entered Switzerland
on the 2-Ist December. General ‘ Bubna, conimand-
big the advanced guard, marched towards Berne,
and thence to Geneva,- where he arrived on the 28:1x.
This placeewhich is surroundlid with bastions and a
wall,- opened its gates, in consequence of the bad
conduct of the Prefect; the bad disposition of the in-
habitants, the vertigo of the moment. The High
Lords of the Little Council thought the moment fa-
vourable' for the sea-establishment of their aristocracy,
and a proclamation-appeared, signed by them all.
But the democratic party was enraged at this usurp-
ation‘; the Austrian General declared that he would
not interfere in these differences ; that it was a French
e;ty which he occupied in the course of war. The •
High Lords descended from their seats as Sovereigns.
ht the -gird of 24 hours the French municipality re-
sumed its functions and justice continues to be eur-
cised in-the name of the Emperor.
. On the 16th of January there was only a garrison
of 8000 Austrians iu Geneva. The French advso-
ced-posts were within a cannon-shot of the tows.—..
Baron•Finot, Prefect of Mc;at Blanc, bad rapidhijir—
ganized .free corps and the "Levy en masse, the ohls-
atand .of which had been taken by the General of
Divisio t Count Desaix. The territory of Mont Blanc
seemed to be secure. from every attack. Fort Bar-
rea- u was provisioned ; the body of troops of the 'l4oe),
nation it guards, and volunteers, forming arChon.;
Bourg, iccreased• daily, and is already augmented lin•
.13000 men.
The Department 9f the Isere has again distin.
gui: bed itsclt by the patriotism of which it has at all,
Biven proofs. It has risen en masse at the
voice of the Extraordinary Commissioner Count de
St. Villier. General Marchande commands the na-
tional guards add the levy en masse.
On the 16th, there were at Grenoble 15,00 Q nreh.

; a part_ piece:
rApidiy Organslthig there. 71'he torresses of Brean-
cop, Fenestrelles, 'and Mont Dauphen, were. provi-
,
blotted.

The Dlpartment of the Drome, which at first
had not *hewn, so much ardour as that of the here,
was puning.itself in motion. The troops of the rule
from Toulon aid Marseilles, and the national guards
of Provence, were owthe march to reinforce the Amy
of Dauphine.

Some troops or General Bubna's advanced guard
having entered the Department of the Ain, had oce
copied Bourg, after having experiecured some resiet;l
..•
ante from the inhabitants.
On the 19th tba enemy's advanced posts were three
leagues from Lions.
The Marshal-Dukeof Castiglione had repaired tO
,Dauphine to rally all the troops, and to march in
force towards Lyons and Geneva. General Mango
occupied Lyons, and was destined to act on the right,
bank of the. Saone. •
The Extraordinary Commissioner Count Char'',
and the Count de Bondy, Prefect of the Rhine, have
done all that could- be expected from them.
inhabitants of Lyons have shewn ardour an 4 patrio.

twin. The city being threatened, many families had
withdrawn, ar.d the value of the goods sent to Ito
mountains is estimated at 100 millions of Lyres.

From Bourg Count Bubna has sent light troops is
all directirns filteen hussars appeared before Macon.
There were troops and national guards for the defence
of the town, but the Kayor of Macon and the Mayoni
of St. Laurent betray 4 dis public confidence, sit
fired the bridge over the Saone to be occupied by
of the enemy. • On the 16th the force of the enemy at
Macon was 800 cavalry. This conduct is an indelible
stain for the inhabitants of this town,. and a

contrast

to the heroic devotion of Ch*Os.
A party of the enemy had appeared before this last
place; the Chalonais flew warms; the national guard
of Autin marched to their aid ; the inhabitants of the
Chalonais descended from theft mountains ; four iron

Genera Manilas had sent seeeiipx detUchnsents,
which have surprised and cut in pieces parties of-the
enemy. They estimate at 15 or 16,000 men the
,Austrian troops which are before Besancon, and which
send detachments in all directions.

One of those detachments appeared before Dole
150 cavalry were sufficient to occupy that town ;
having received reinforcements of infantry they ad.
warmed towards Ausonne, but the garrison sallied out,
beat them, and drove them beyond D6le.
The inhabitants of the little town of St. Jean de
Lune hive defended their bridge, and made 11. pri-
soners. A Captain of the enemy's cavalry was kilied
by a blow of a sabre from a superannuated officer who
put himself at the head of the National Guards.
Another corps! iof Prince Schwartzenberg had
marched to Nenaingen, and after having bombarded'
the pla;e far four days, had changed the siege into a
blochade. On the 17th, the accounts from Hunin.
, Scheleatadt, and all- the places on the Rhine,
were perfectlynatistactory.

Some troops of the same armrappeared before Be.
fort, and after having lost 1400 men in an assault
had likewise changed the siegt into a blockade. On
the 16th the news from this place was•satisfactory..
Another corps of the army of Prince Schwartaen-
berg ..had_ marched to Epinal and thence towards
r Nancy. On the 19th its advanced posts were before
Toul. The Duke of Belluno was behind the Meuse,
at Void, occupying Comntercy, atyl communicating
with the Duke of Ragusa.
On the Wth the Duke of Treviso was at Langres.
—He NO before him the corps of 'General Gnilay,
which is also a part of the army of the Prince of
Schwartzenberg. On the 18th and 14th the Duke

guard, which was 1800 strong ; 300 chasseurg of the
Infantry of the young guard, conducted by some
people of the country, marched at one in the Lurn-
ing

his arms, attacked him with the bayonets killed 5 or
600 men, and took from him 150 prisoners.
Ou the 19th, in consequence of general arrange.
menu, the Duke of Treviso had taken a position at
Chaumont, where he has been joined by two more
divisions, and by a park of 70 pieces of cannon.
Two battalions of Wurtembergers, coming from
haiing got tot) far, the Duke of Treviso,
after causing them to be cannonaded for ten minutes,
had them attacked with the bayonet by 60 grenadiers
of the guard, who offered emir services. These two
battalions were repulsed try 60 men, and thrown into
the river. Eighty prisoners were taken.
Camps of reserve are forzning at Meaux, at &is-
sone, Chalons, Troyes, and Arefsur Aube. A hun-
dred squadrons of reserve cavalry are forming, at
Meaux and Melun. under the General Of Division
Bordesoult and Pagol.

The National Guards of N9rmandy, Poitiers, and
Brittany are on the march, to reinforce the camps of
Meaux, Soissons and Troyes. A park of 600 pieces
of cannon is collected at Chalons, under General Ruty.

The Mor:-.ent is come when, from all parts of this
vast Empire, the French, who desire speedily to deli-
ver the terrritory of their country, and preserve the
national honour which we 'have received from our'

forefathers, ought to take up arms and march to the
camps, which ate the rendezvous of the brave and
true Frenchmen:

The enemy announce that they invade France with
200,000 men. There are 20,u00 in Brabant, 50,000
of the 'Silesian army before Mentz,Sarrelouis, Lux-
embourg, Theonville and Metz ; and 100,000 in the
army of the Prince of Schwartzenberg, which is at

marched upon Wortel. General Rogsset had placed
battalion of the 12th .tirailleurs in the church-yard
Minderhout : this battalion repulsed all the-attacks
if. the enemy, and covered itself with glory. The
of Mier was defended with equal success. The
iusisy redoubled his attacks on all the points of the
*ea, and was ever/ when repulsed with enormous
fuss, and without being able to develops before Hoog-
street* General Roguet having learned in the
evening that a column of 4000 British, under the
command of Sir T. Graham, which had left Roam-
dael,. were marching upon Antwerp, and being igno-
rant of the force of the different corps of the enemy,
which might attack him, judged it necessary to ap-
proach nearer to Antwerp, the better to appreciate
their deploying, and concentrate his defends. He in.
dined upon Wenegeena, wherein supported his right;
his left was connected with the corps from Antwerp,
which occupied Menet' and Deurne.
The 12th passed is making movements and dispe,
sitions to give a good reception to the enemy, who,
after the severe losses he had suffered on the 11th, ad-
vanced with great caution.
On the 13th, at eight in the morning, the corps of
%low debauched by the roads of Braaschel and
Turnhout, while a column of light infantry arrieed
hf the way of Schotenbued to separate general Ro-
gues from the village of Deurne, which was defended
by a brigade of the young guard. At the same mo-
ment the corps of grabens attacked-Mersen, which
was occupied by four battalions of the Ist corps, and
a battalion of labourers of the marine. '
The cannonade began along the whole line, and
the enemy advanced in -force upon Winsgeep ; onr
artillery overwhelmed them ; they made the greatest
efforts, and even saeriftced some soldien to force the
village. General Rogeet advanced. with five .b.
talions, and the enemy was emnplecely repulsed.
The death of the General arßrigade, Avy, had oc-
•casioned a little disorder on ouriket ; a battalion of
the 4th regiment of light infantry distinguished itself
by its firmness, and restored order, The village of
Merzen was occupied by the enemy for a moment.
Our troops rallied on Dome, and soon the enemy w*
every where repulsed. The corps of Bulow retreated
precipitately upon Turnhout, and that of Qtaluin by
the road of Bergen-op-Zoom.

On the 12th, General Maison," deceived by false
accounts, thinking that the enemy was advancing
upon Diest and Louvain, by La Campine, bad taken
with him the brigade 4iward, of the corps of Gena-
ral Roguet, had united it with the division Barrois,
which was in reserve at Lien, and with the cavalry
had advanced in the direction which he presumed the
enemy would take. When he had discovered that
the news he bad received Wll6 false, he acquired the
certaintylbat the victory was decided, and that the
enemy were in full retreat. But for this circumstance,
which deprived us far a rnorneat of part 6f our force,
it would hays been possible, by pursuing the enemy
briskly, to drive him over the Waal, and to raise the
siege of Gone". The enemy's troops in the North
are partly employed in blockading Wesel, Naardtn,
Gorcum, Deventer, and the Helder.

BY a Vessel front the West Indies, after a long sus-
pension of intelligence, we have, througb Coracles,
some advices from the Spanish Main. General Do.
LIVAR is pardenlarly stated to have returned to Ca-
recces, but whether his troops have eireivated Va•
lencia, or still retained poisession of that plice, is not
ascertained.. The division under Colonef•Cevatt.os,
Whith marched from Coro, was, on the lath October,
within sever, leagues of Vakpcia.
General Moursvaanx, in consequence of a wound
e bas received, has resigned the command of the
troopS in Venezuela pro ternpore to Colonel SOLOMON ;
and on this occasion, the latter published a spirited
Address to the inhabitants of that extensive province,
in Vf ich he points out the advantages of the Govern..
ment of the parent State, the increasing strength of
the adherents of the mother-country, and the policy
of submitting implicitly to her authority, for the re-
storation of order, tranquillity, and happiness.
• We also learn from a paragraph in the Bermuda
Paper of the 18th ultimo, that some further steps
have been taken with regard to the blockade of the
American ports. This Paper contains another Pro-
clamation of• Sir J. B. WARREN, stating the full par-
Ceulars of the,kcharacter and extent of thi; blockade
of the American ports to the south of Rhode bland;
and to prevent the possibility of mistake or evasion,
eve!, harbour is named subject to this reitrietion.
