The ELsyslnla Bouxrnc of the French
arrived with the intelligence of the defeat of Owner%
corps, as stated in Admiral MARTIN'S dispatch, sll4
will be found under the head of the Casette. Our Re.,
ders will perceive with what caution the Fret:AU&
tin is drawn up. It is nearly wholly filled with kis,
tails of the positions of the various corps; and whia
it comes to speak of the affairs between the cotes
OUDINOT and of WlTousTrar,. the details are es.
tremely scanty, and, (strange to tell!) they hares,,
abled 'us to verify the prediction in the Snit ofsi‘
turday, by astuaUy "pushing 15,000 Ruslians
the Dwina !"
In order to make the palpable fakelmods mthis
.Bulletiii perfectly evident to every reader, it may bs
teleessary to state; that Count %Tonsillar was*
On the right or north hank of the Dwisa, hems,
Riga and Dunaburg, to watch the road to St.thai'
burgh. (Oe the opposite bank Outi.;oT was *4
to keep Wrrostisrent in- check; and the fenuare
'leining a favourable opportunity, suddedy os
;the Dwina, with a view of aurnilw.the Rumba, asei
;thus setting st Riga from the north bank of dearer.
-In this attempt OyDrNoT totally failed, Yd was
driven across the river with 'great loss : *it
more likely that 15,000 French were pushed
Dwina, than 15,000 Russians. Let our 'Reaskes
compare the two statements.
Upon referring to the eleven French Bakes
Which we have now received From the banks of the
Dwina, we find the French enumerate the !cases el
