the Magiaracy of Barth
,• You fent me a deputation, earneitly entreating me for a fare-
guard-1 ordered you one, to free your town from all kinds of
dicquietutle; but, by a chofen aft of treachery. which is perhaps
unknown to favages, have you enabled the enemy to feize Even
thole who prole led your perfons and your property. One of them
has been inhumanly murdered.

MARCH 17.—The Swedes made feveral attempts
in the beginning of this month to drive the French
from their lines Their attack on the 14th occafioned
a very (harp cool:lid • the Swedes wete obliged to
retreat in diforder. Thei official details ar: as follow:

" As lonic of the regiments of the Bth corps had
receised orders to go upon another dettination, the
Swedes, being informed of this movement, thought it
a convenient time to attack the French before Stria-
fund. At three o'clock in the afternoonoinder favour
of a thick milt, they advanced from the Knieper Gate
with about 2:"00 infantry, two fqaadrons of cavalry,
anil fis field picces. Leaving about a third of this force
as a referee, they marched ag tina an intrenchment
upon the left flank et General Dupis's divifion. This
work being quite new, was neither turnifhed with can-
non nor Wades, and contained nu more than a com-
pany of the Vtltigeurs of the 58th teaiment. Neither
the attack of the enemy, the fury with which the hope
of vidory had infpired them, the fuiseriority of their
numbers, nor even a fhower of balls, were fufficient
to damp the courage of this brave company of Volti
geurs. They baffled all the enemy's efforts, without
retreating or falling into the kali (Holder, by which
means they gave another companyof the 4th regiment
time to join them, jua as they had fired away all
their cartridges.
The Swedes, difappointed in meeting with Inch a
refiflance from a handful of men, (trained every nerve
to obtain potTeffion of the booty they had protrofed
the mfel ves. They even fit:rounded the works, jumped
into the ditches, and attempted to mount the parapet.

Between twelve and Arleen of the bravell of them fell
at the foot of the breatt-work. Several others (hared
the fame fate at the digerent points of attack. At
the fight of their dead, the wounded, and the dying,
and the approach of Come French detachments, ad-
vancing from feveral quarters, and threatening to cut
them off, terror began to fucceed to courage.
" They commented a retreat, which they di3 not
execute without lots. Both companies of the Volti•
geurs advanced from the works at the fame time.—
The enemy, thrown into diforder, was ',twined to
the glacis of the fortrefs, leaving too killed behind
them, including a Lieutenant Colonel, two other
Officers, and thirty ptiConers,
" Six Voltigeurs were killed, and 27 wounded.—
Dining the three hours this aftion !ailed, the French
did not fire a cannon-(hot. The mulket and the bay-
onet engrolTed all the honour of the day."

IXTRACT OF A DISPATCH PROM CIEHIRAL, DIINNIGSIN•

" Koenieberg. Feb 10.22,1807.

" General Sednaoratzky,';ho fras juft effelted a
junCtion with my army, has brought with him 1400
Prutlian prifoners, from 2 to 300 Frenchmen, and a
great deal of baggage, which he had taken from the
enemy. The retrograde march of Bonaparte rather
refembles a flight than a retreat. It is folcly to the
fwiftnefs of our Coffacks bodes that we are indebted
for the enormous quantity of prifoners that have been
Idaily made (ince the battle of Eylau. The day before
yefterday they took aoo,yefterday r;o, and to-clay 385,
4 officers, betides baggage waggons, forage, and pro-
vifions. Every thingthat we can come up with is taken.
The French foldiers, dying of hunger and fatigue, no
longer feel a difpofition to defend themfelves. At
the mere fight of our troops, they throw away their
arms, and demand bread. MI advanced pas are
already at Liebltadt. The whole army is in full
march. My head quarters alone remain at Knenigf-
I berg, as my ill health, and the extreme fatigue I have
undergone, compel me to take a few momentsof repofe
here. I fet nut tomorrow. The Pruilian divifion
commanded by General Plaetz, is at the extremity
of my right wing on the heights of Brandcberg. Ge-
neral Sedmoratzky, and General Leftocq, form to-
gether my left wing. The Grand Army is in the
centre ; and in this order we advance towards the
Viflula, embracing Thorr on one fide, and Elhing on
the other. 1 hope my troops will Coon thew them-
felves on the other fide of that river. In the mean
time my advanced guard, reinforced by General
Platow's Coffacks, a confiderahle part of whom have
already reached their deltination, purfire the enemy
without relaxation, and harafs them by their petty
warfare, which is as ftrange to them as it is advanta-
geous to us."
