MAGDEBURGH, AUGUST 25.

On the 21st Dombrowski's division beat a corps of
partizans two leagues beyond Wittenberg, killed a
number of them, and covered itself with glory. This
division consists of Polish vtterans, and has attached
to it an excellent body of cavalry.

• DRESDEN, AUGUST 24. .
The loss of the Russians and Prussians in the bat-
tles of Lahn, Siebeaichen, Worms, and Wolfshayn,
amounts to between 15 and 18,000 men, in killed,'
wounded, and prisoners. They also lost six pieces of
cannon, and had several Generals killed. The French.
army may have lost 2500 men killed or wounded.
The prisoners taken by it exceed 2000.
TAMMUZ, AUGUST LS
Yesterday evening, and the evening before, the ha-
Han troops had several skirmishes, in all of which they
had the advantage. Colonel Duche, commanding
the advanced pins at Villach, composed of two bat-
talions of the 35th light infantry, havipg observed
that the enemy was manceuvring to attack him in the
rear, by tire told of Paternion, made a feint of eva-
cuating the town a little betbre dark; •but soon atter
returned with three battalions, overthrew two squa-

ATIS of cavalry that wee opposed t hint, ark en.
tett d ti4e place at the charge, making prisoners 250
men of tl e regiment 4 of Petervaardin .and Barten.'
stri,i. Th., enemy had erected a battery of two guns
in ft, nt t the bridge of the Drave, to support their.,
owl Awns. They fired about fifty .rounds witbsnit'
effect, and onr vvltegrurs compelled them to retreat,
alter kitting or wcuoding a considerable number of
nnillrrynien. In this affair we lost only thirty-or
kiLied and wonnd-d.

To-day we give some further extracts from French
Papers to the 7th instant, but, with the exception of
some military movements on the side of Italy, which '
are likely to give an interesting character to the events
of the campaign in that quarter, we are presented
with little information of consequence. The Decree
fcr the admission of colonial produce is, we think, a
proof that the Finances of France stand in need of
recruiting.
The advices from the Coast, which accompanied
the Paris Papers, infortsi us that BONAPARTE still re-
tained Dresden, but specalate confidently upon his
tetreat to Leipsic. The grounds of such a resolution
were stated to be threefold—first, that the Cnowst
PRINCE was superior on his left wing—secondly, that
the Allies on his right were formidably posted in Bo-
hemia,. from whence they might debouche a second
time still further in his rear by the road of Egra—and;
thirdly, that BLUGHER, already victorious in Silesia,
having been joined by General BENNICHIEN, had pres-
sed so hard upon MACDONALD, as to compel him to
f.:11 holck•on the Elbe.
In opposition to these opinions, however, for we
suspect that they are mere gratuitous opinions, our
Readers ought to bear in mind that BONAPARTE,
wi ile he occupies Hamburgh, Magdeburg, and Dres-
den in such force, is too strong as yet in the line of
the Elbe to render a retreat necessary.
In reverting to to the events before Dresden while
we hourly see wore occasion to accuse the French
statements of exaggeration, some consolatory race-.
tions arise from the occurrences in oche, quarters. It
the Allies have 'suffered a repulse `at Dresden, has not
DONAPARTE himself been equally unsuccessful in his
'attacks upon the Capitals of Bohemia, Silesia, and
IVUssia? What excuse will the French Bulletin'
writers now make for not keeping their word in oc-
atupying Berlin with a French force on the 946.
Through the medium of the French Papers, a most
abusive philippic has been published against General
Montag. Es is stated to have taken arms against

bis native country : this we know to be absolutely

false. 44 It is not against France, but against the
domineering power of France out of her own border:,
that we have taker: up arms." . These are the me-
Inorable expressions in Prince SCHWARTZENBIRG'S
Proclamation, and they ought to be inscribed on the
colours of every regiment in the field against BONA..
PARTE. The analogy attempted by .the libeller d
MOREAU, between that brave and generoui Warrior
and the American General AaNOLD, or the Constable
Bourraox, each of whom sold his country to an enemy,
is base and unjust ; while the introduction of the
same of Chevalier BAYARD into the article, is most
unhappy for the writer's purpose : it will draw from
all good men, to whom the private virtues and.
Lay talents of MOREAU are known, a parallel of a
contrary description; an'd we may add, that if human
being ever inherited the great and good qualities of
tLe Chevalier—sans fteur et rant reproche, that man is
1101‘EAU.
The followng is a list of General and other Officers,
who served under General MOREAU in his celebrated
campaign in Germany, and who are now, with one
or two exceptions, actually employed under BONA-
PARTE in the North of Europe. We call upon them
to refute, from their personal knowledge, the asper-
sions thus cast spon•their former General :

Sr. Cvn. He •commanded the left wing of MO-
MAO'S army. The right was commanded by Ge-
mill Fallow, and the centre by General DE4SAIX
b .th of whom went subsequently killed in action.
Besides the above the following, who have since
risen to the rank of General Officers, distinguished
themselves in the same memorable campaign : Ils-
voesT (Prince of Eckonslll), LAVAL, HEVDELET,
THOUVANOT, DECAZR, and GAZAN, General of Di-
vision Of the above, DECAEN and GATAN were re-
ceatly employed in §pain.

The appointment of Count SrAtom to the chief
seat in the Austrian Cabinet, may be regarded at
once as a signal of the determination of Austria to
persevere manfully in the contest, and as a compli-
ment to the British nation, Count STADION resided
London as Austrip Minister at the period of the

French Revolution. Re is ender:Wild to be a sincere
admirer of the British characterl *ad as such warmly
devoted to the true interests of his native country.—
He was formerly removed from office at the sug-
gestion of BONAPARTI—this is perhaps his highest
euloginm. It is but justice, howevery to say, that
his predecessor, Count PIETTIKNICH (BorrAvArres
President of the Congress at Prague), has always bore
a high character for honour and integrity. He had,
however, recently accepted of a domain and an ad-
ditional title from BONAPARTE, and assumed the
name of METTERNICHANYIINIVIOURG. It requires but
a limited knowledge of human nature to discover, that
from that moment it became unsafe to entrust such a
person with the diplomacy of a Government which
had declared for independence.
