THORN, APRILis.

For this week pail, very confilerable mnvement S
have been ohferved among the French troops, and it
.is in particular remarked, that their centre is greatly
reinforced. The neighbourhood of Willenberg is
covered with fcldiers. Frefh French troops arrive
here daily from the interior of Germany, where they
are repl Iced by others from France. A convoy
of heavy artillery arrived here two days 'ago from
Silefia, and praceeded immediately to Dantzic and
Graudentz. The befieging artillery employed before
the latter of thefe places, was on the 4th removed to
the corps whit 1 befieges Dantzic. The Prullian gar-
!iron in Dantzic has made forties. with the view of
driving back cr haraffing the Pul,fh troops which in-
vat that town. That which took place on the 26th
of March appears to have been the moll ferinus.—
We can judge of it, however, only-from the following
letters which we infect, in expeaation of the official
report of this affair, which does the greatefl honour
to the Polith troops.
Martha! Lefebvre to General Gielgud, commanding the Poll&
Troops In the ahreoce of General Dombrawiki.
Hcad-Garters, near Crl ft, March. 26.
I requeft you to teftify my latistaction to the brave men you
command ;—tell the officers and foldters that I (hall immediately
tranfintt an account to his Majefty of their fidelity and courage ;
tell them alfo that they have fought this morning under my eyes,
arid that nothing can add to the praire they merit. Give me au
account of tht.fe who have diftinguifhed themfelves, that .may
tend their names to tits Majefty.
I have die honour to be, acc. LEFEBVRE. •
