In a preceding column our Readers will find fomc
intereffing information refpeaing the battle of Pultulk
on the 26th of December. It is copied from a journal
entitled The Erlangen Gazette. A paper held in high
efteem and repute in Germany, and there confidered
as the only one that is not under French influence.
It is printed and publilbed no one knows how, and
is fought for with great avidity. The Editor, who-
ever he is, is known throughout Germany by the
name of the Flying Gazetteer ; and whatever intelli-
gence he communicates, is confidered as authentic.
All the vigilance of the Gallo•German Police has not
been able to detea him, or fupprefs his publication.
The accounts which he gives, on the authority of
private letters, of the particulars of the feries of
iaaguinary adlions on the 26th of December, and the
ipreceding days, do not entirely coincide with either
the French Bulletins, or the Ruffian Official Reports.
There is, however, an obvious impartiality in them,
which entitles them to confiderable credit. We have
no doubt that the contefts between there two mighty
bolts were attended with all the viciffitudes, flueua-
tions, and great lofs that is Rated.

We have more than once mentioned that the corn.
wand of the Ruffian army in Poland has been taken
from Marfhal KAMSWSKI, and conferred upon Gene-
ral BINNIGSEN ; but we could not affign the caufe.
It now appears that the former, before and fince his
return to St. Peterfburgh, has given fuch decided
proofs of temporary derangement, that it has been
thought too dangerous an experiment to allow him
to reaffume the command. His courage and (kill
are unquellionable, and were his mental powers as
confirmed and vigorous as his conflitution, no man in
all Ruffia would be better qualified to contend with
BONAPAILTB.

Of the battle of Mohringen on the 25th ult. no
further particulars worthy of notice have tranfpired.
Accounts are, however, alerted to have been received
from Hamburgh through a very particular channel,
of one day later date than any Papers which have
reached this country, in which it is Rated, that on
the 2gth of January a general aEtion took place
between the Grand French Army on the Villula and
the Allied Forces of Rullia and Praia, in which the
former were completely routed. It is added, that,
in confequence of this fuccefs, obtained over the
enemy, the Außrians had attacked and defeated
them on the fide of Silefia. We thould be happy to
confirm this intelligence, but as we know not the
authority on which it reßs we can fay nothing of its
authenticity. The latter part appears to us fo highly
improbable as to throw a ftrong degree of doubt on
the whole ftatement.

The Kix c has been pleated to grant Letters Patent
under the Great Seal of the High Court of Admi-
ralty of England, appointing the Duke of Aeolus,
his MA:jelly's Vice Admiral over the Weftern Coatis

and the Winds of Orkney and Zetland.
The Court Martial on Sir HOME POPHAM is defer-
red from Monday to Thurfday next.

Commanders, and one Mid(hipman is to be appointed

flute in the noble atchievement.
