VIENNA, APRIL 26.

Bulletins still continue to be published in this earl
pital of the operations of our armies, although it is al-
ready obvious that our affairs have already taken a
very unfavourable turn. The ith, Bth, and 9th Bul-
letins give an account of the actions and battles which
cook place in Bavaria, from the 19th to the 23d of
this month. They state that our loss has been very
severe ; that several regiments have lost all their
field officers, and Major Generals Maurice and Lewis
Lichtenstein and Lusignan are said to be among the
wounded. It is alsc acknowledged in these bulletins
that we have lost much baggage, ordnance, &c. ; but
it is asserted, that our troops have fought with the
utmost intrepidity and valour, and that our want of
success is ent;relv owing to the unaccountable measure
pursded by the 'Archduke Lewis, who made a very
untimely retreat, and thus 6: oke our line. On the
22d the Archduke Charles endeavoured to repair this
error by the battle of Eck muhl ; but finding in the
brunt of the action his rear threatened by a French
corps, which had been in pursuit of the Archduke
Lewis, be was obliged to retreat across the Danube.
The Emperor finding, that in consequence of the
late occurrences in Bavaria, the frontiers of the here
ditary dominions are threatened by the enemy's
troops, has called upon all the inhabitants of Upper
and Lower Austria, and Saltzburgh, able to bear
arms, to rise in a mass, and repair to the banks of
the Inn.

Positive intelligence has now been received of the
renewal of hostilities between the Russians and Turks.

At Trieste twenty-three English ships have again
arrived with colonial produce and English manufac-
tures.

PARIS, MAY 6.
The following Bulletin was this day published :
THIRD BULLETIN.

" Wad Quarters, Burghausen, April 30.
46 The Emperor arrived in Muhldorf the '27th inst.'
in the evening. His Majesty detached the division I
of General Wrede to Lauffen on the ialza, in order
to overtake the corps, which .the enemy had in Tyrol,
and which was retreating by forced marches. General
Wrede overtook the enemy's rear on the 28th, near
Lauffen, took their baggage, and made many priso-
ners ; but the enemy had sufficient time to cross the
river and burn the bridge.
" On the 27th the Duke or Dantaic arrived in
Wanesburg, and the 2Sth in Altenmark.
64 On the 29th General Wrede continued his march
to Saltzburgh ; about three league. from the town,
he found the advanced posts of the enemy's army.—
The Bavarians pursued them closely and entered the
' town with them. General Wrede assures, that the
division of General Jellachich is completely destroyed.
That General has thus been punished for the scanda-
lous proclamation, by which he put the dagger in the
hands of the Tyrolese.
" The Bavarians have taken 300 prisoners, 'and
found consic'erable magazines in Saltzburgh.
46 On the 28th, at break of day, the Duke of Istria
arrived in Burghausen, and his advanced parties took
post on the right bank of the Inn. The same day the
Duke of Montebello arrived in Burghausen. Count
Bertrand exerted himself to the utmost to restore the
bridge, which had been burnt by the enemy. It was
completed on the 30th, and the v: hole army crossed
the river.

" On the 28th a detachment of 50 horse chasseurs,
commanded by Captain Margaron, arrived in Ditt- ,
moiling, where lie fell in with a battalion of the fa-
mous militia, styled Landwhes, which, on his ap-
proach, retreated into a neighbouring wood. Capt.
Margaron summoned them to surrender ; after much ;
deliberation, 1000 men of that valiant militia, posted
in a thick wood, altogether inaccessible to cavalry,
surrendered to 50 chasseurs. The Emperor wished
to see them ; they really excite compassion ; they are
badly armed, worse accoutred, and commanded by
superannuated officers of artillery.
" The cruel and overbearing temper of the Aus-
trians fully displayed itself during the moment of ap-
parent success, when they occupied Munich. The
High Bailiff of Muhldorf was arrested by them and
shot. An inhabitant of Waldorf, of the name of
Starck, who had obtained a badge of distinction from!
the King of Bavaria for the services which, during
the last war, he rendered to the army, has been taken
up and sent to Vienna, to stand his trial. The High
Bailiff of Burghausen,Count Armansperg,has also been
sent to Lintz, and from thence to Vienna, because, in
the year 1805, he did not comply with a requisition,
addressed to them on the part of the Austrians.
" The Bavarians will no doubt give a minute and
faithful account of the acts of wanton cruelty, com-
mitred by the Austrians in this country, that the me- ,
mory thereof may be preserved by their most remote
posterity, although it is extremely probable that this
was the last insult which Austria will be able to offer
to the allies of France. The Austrians have endea-
voured, both in the Tyrol and Westphalia, to invite I
the inhabitants to rise in rebellion against their So-
vereigns.
" Austria has raised numerous armies, divided
into corps like the French army ; her troops are mov-
ing by forced marches, to imitate the French troops;
her Generals are publishing bulletins, proclamations,
general orders—all in imitation of the French. But
the ass is not ennobled to a lion because he is covered
with a lion's skin ; the long cars betray the ignobler ;
beast.
" The Emperor of Austria has left Vienna, and,
on his departure, publi,lied a proclamation, drawn up
by Gentz, in the style and spirit of the most ridicu-
lous
performances of that kind. He is gone to
Scharding, a position ;:y.iremely well adapted for a
Sovereign who wither wishes to be in his capital to ;
govern his dominions, nor in the field where he is ;
known to be merely an encumbrance and dead weight. !
When he was informed of tlie result of the battle of 1
Eckmuhl, he '.dyed it prudent to leave the banks of ;
the. Inn, and retire into the intei joy of his dominions.
" The tosea of Scharding, which is ;yaw occupied by
the Doke Rivoli, has suir,red much. The Austrians
on their retreat set tire to their magazines and burnt .
halt the town, v.-hich beloni;ed to them. They had
no doubt some presentiment of their future fate, that
what belonged to Austria shall no longer belong to
her."
It appears by this Bulletin that the Austrians are
evacuai. ng the Tyrol with the utmost precipitation,
in co
nee of the vrtori_ns gained by our troops
in Bavaria,
and of the signal advantages obtained by
General S. Hilaire in LI:a: Lillian part of the Tyrol.
