A glow of exultation among men of every gradation

of them arising out of the tremendous shock which
Russia has recently idstained.

the independence of nations, and the consequent in. ,

Th. Prince of OLDISIDUSGII is mentioned as likely'

The following letter, received yesterday from the

111 accounts which have reached us from Buenos
Apes, to the Ist of September, we are happy, for the
-lake of humanity, to leant, that there is again a hope
of peace being restored between the contending parties
in South America. The following is an extract of a
letter from Buenos Ayres on the subject, dated the
Slst of August :
44 The Junta of this place have sent. down an officer
with dispatches for the Governor-General of Monte
Video, with proposals to send Deputies to treat for a
cessation of hostilities ; the reason assigned for this, is
in consequence of the success over the nation of In-
dians, called Cochobambinos, by GuyoNwaies army,
which have suddenly reappeared in that quarter, and
have taken possession of Polosi and Juyjui. This,
with a misunderstanding which exists amongst the
officers which command the army approaching to re-
sume the siege of Monte Video, may lead to a friendly
understanding between the two parties."

The following Bulletin, issued by Ministers yester-
day, we inserted in a Second Edition—we repeat it
for the gratification of such of our Readers as had it
not in the early printed papers

44 A dispatch hits been received from Lord CATH.
CART. dated St. Petersburgh, Ist November. He in-
closes the Bulletins of the action of the 18th ultimo,
also Reports from General Srairttu. and Count
WITTOUNTETN. The former, in his pursuit of the
enemy, had taken 40 waggons, 22 standards of the
Bavarian regiments, 800 ducats in the military chest,
Seven officers, the Commissary-General, with all his
oeftivies, and made 100 prisoners, on the 25th Oc-
tober ; and, on the 26th, he took from the enemy
seven pieces of artillery, and made s.ven officers and
150 men prisoners, besides those taken in various rem-
otion of the rearguard, wherein the enemy had
much suffered.
" Count WITTORNSTRIN reports, that by the ope.
ration Of General Brinenitu. the Bavarian corps was
separated from that of Sr. CYR. He himself, in the
remit, had taken 800 prisoners and ten tumbrils j
ell, ond SOO horses killed en the road, and some
mom, the cannon belonging to which, he supposes,
ms's t
_bletied in the marshes. The enemy had retired
to &epelle. He adds that Sr. CYR'S corps is so
weekend, that it is impossible for Bine to attack again

" Lord CATHCART Hates, that nothing of momenthad been reported from the Russian Gland Army.
The French were in the utmost want of forage and
.Prciaision, and the Russians ware greatly superior in
the number and vigour of their cavalry.

Letters received from the French coast mention that
the army under Bonaparte was retreating in a solid
mass, and that the Cossacks did not begin to follow
his rear until three days after he had commenced his
retreat. We have too good an opinion of these intre-
pid soldiers to suppose that they would allow a sin-
kle hour to elapse after an opportunity had been af-
forded them of attacking the enemy, without making
them feel their vengeance. We know from the 2.5 th
Bulletin, that they had actually penetrated into the
enemy's camp, such was their ardour for combat, and
that though repulsed by the enemy, according to his
own statement, they brought off 100 waggons, and as
many prisoners. General Kutusoff's account of the
same affair stated the number of the enemy taken
prisoners at 2000, but we merely allude to the French
statement to shew that the Cossacks are not those des-
picable enemies which the letters from the French
COILSt and the foreign Journalists would have us to be-
lieve. The same letters state, what is much more
Iflorthy of credit, that the reverses of the French arms
in Russia, had produced a general depression, that
the war in this North was most unpopular, and that it
great anxiety was felt to • know the result of Bona-
parte's retreat, not unmixed, we may be assured, with
earnest prayers, that it may prove destructive to the
Tyrant.
A private letter from Konigsberg, dated the 24th
vit. assures us, that intelligence had been received
there, which was considered as authentic, and which
stated the arrival of a Russian corps at Bialystock,
on the 16th ult. the same day on which the French
Authorities at Warsaw were thrown into such alarm.
It was added, that this corps proceeded on its way
Grodno, which it reached on the 18th, and frost
thence continued its march for Kowno, with intent
to take or destrdy the immense magazines of gm.
visions and ammunition, which the French have col-
lected there - andon which, as appears from the 26th
Bulletin, they mainly rely for support. These re-
ports may, perhaps, be exaggerated t bat if an expe-
dition of the kind described itas' been really under-
taken, we are not aware of any French troops being
so situated as to interpose against its complete execu-
tion ; and undoubtedly the blow would be one of the
moat severe which could be StitiltkorSt BONA.
