ZERBST, AUGUST 20.

Hostilities commenced on the 17th in our neigh-
bourhood. There were about sit hundred Cossacks
here, who, on the 16th, sent their patroles along the
Elbe to Rosslau, opposite Koswig.
Early on the 18th General Dombrowski attacked
the Russian advanced posts and repulsed them behind
Juterbogk, Belzeg, and Zerbst. The &env' troops
remained in possession of those different places.
A corps of several thousand men, infantry and ca-
valry, with 16 cannon, commanded byWinzingerode,
and Generals Zrock and Binkendort, retired beyond
Luckwalde and Bruck; there were still 800 Cossacks

on the 18th in the latter town, but the French have
driven them from it.

BERLIN, AUGUST 10.

The Russian corps under the orders of Lieutenant
General Rapawitz, which formed the blockade of
Custrin, set out on the Ist instant for another desti-
nation ; it has been replaced by another corps of Pius.
sian troops, commanded by General Henrichs, Lieu.
teaant-General Rapawitz, who is destined to corn.
mand the 10th Russian corps, has set out for the
Russian head-quarters. .
It is not only by land the Danes efficaciously assist
the French. The privateer Dna); Trouin, fitted out
at Lubeck, took, on the coast of Fehmem, two Meck-
lenburg vessels laden with planks. A Swedish ship
of war and an English brig, which were in the neigh.
bourhood, having attempted to retake those two ves-
sels, the Danish Government of Fehmein ordered
some light artillery to the coast, and fire upon the
ship of the line and brig. The fire from the Danes
obliged the two latter to stand off, and by that means
insured the privateer's two prizes.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 181&

An arrival from Lisbon and Cadiz has put us in
possession of the following intelligence—our geideri,
will perceive that the dates are not recent :

" MADRID, JULY 110.
" The prisons are filled with Frenchmen and theit
partizans. Suchet has his heal-quarters in Caps
(this town is nn the Ebro, at equal distances from
Saragossa and Tortosa). Generals Mina and Dina°
have taken the French convoy which departed from
Saragossa for France."

" MADRID, JULY 2!.

By intelligence from Arragon of the 17th and
13th inst. we know that Suchet and Savoroli, trith a
fame of 16,000 men, were rearing throußli the val-
ley of Aran (Catalonia) in the direction of France,
46 On the 18th, official intelligence was received at
Zaragossa of the evacuation of Tortosa by the
French. It was also known, that the enemy had
blown up Mequinenza, and that he had heft very few
troops in the fortresses of Lerida and Tarragona.
" On the 13th July were in Valencia the celebrat.,
ed Englishman Tupper, Lord Bentinck, the Adminti
of the' Squadron Hollowell, Generals Wellington and
Roche, Clinton, Mackenzie, Latorre, Smiot, Cie
brother of the General in Chief lientinck ; and nom
the 6th, Spanish and English troops had not ceas;.l
arriving. .

" We likewise positively know, that lkfurei•-•./13 i;
defended by 1500 of the enemy and 70 pieces ni
mounted artillery ; and that on the lath two Spar:s4
diviskns marched from Valencia, ►o cut oil zni:r
communications, and water.

" They have 'provisions ler two years, but will be
obliged to submit to the laws which the Spanish
troops of the Second Army, which are those destined
to lorm the siege, shall dictate to them. The me
must be the fate of the garrisons of Denioz,
cola, and Morillo.

" On the 16th, an English division left VAloicia.
We are ignorant of its destination.

66 The promptitude with which conveyances were

furnished was wonky of admiration. The Nitre del'
Parque remained in Valencia, preparing for new and
interesting operations. •
• The Regency of St•ain, using the powers given
them by the Cortes, fixed .upon the land called Soto
de Roma, situated in the Veiga de Granada, to give
to Lord Wellington. The Cortes not only approved
this choice, but added to it, by including the land of
the Chanchinas, with the clause of its being for him
and his heirs according to the constitution and laws."

We stated on Thursday, the arrival of the SNAP,
at Plymouth, from St. Andero, and that she had
brought accounts that Lord WEra.marotr had, on
the 19th, summoned St. Sebastian's to surrender.
The same accounts stated, but erronectusly, that the
bombardment recommenced on that day. We are
now enabled to state that later accountshave been re-
ceived from the North coast of Spain, announcing
that the bombardment recommenced on thr 26th of
August, as stated in the following letter, which comes
to us from an authority that has never deceived us:

" PLYMOUTH, SEPTEMBER 2.
An account has reached us from a vessel gone
up Channel, that the Bombardment of St. Sebastian's
recommenced on the 26th ultimo, and that it is tre-
mendous beyond description. Nearly .100 pieces of
exceedingly heavy ordnance vomit forth an incessant
and destructive fire. Both the laad fotces and sea-
men are employed on this service.

The little island of Santa Clara, off the harbour
of St. Sebastian, has been carried in a grand stile by
the boats of the Squadron, without any loss except
that of the LYRA'S boat, which was swamped ; but
the crew were all saved."

The above vessel, it may be believed, brought dis-
patches from the North of Spain. Indeed, we know
that dispatches, dated the 28th ult. have arrived; but
we have not yet learnt whether they are from Lord
WELLINGTON himself.

Our Readers have already been informed, that very
heavy ordnance had been sent to Lord WEALINGTON,
to enable him to carry on his operations with effect.
By the accounts now received, they appear not only
to have reached his Lordship, -but to be in full an-
pigment. They carry shot of no less than tieetvight
-pun& weight, and their effect must be dreadful be-
yond conception.
We have been informed that it is now his Lord-
ship's determination to compel. the. place to surrender
by bombardment (not to carry it by storm), by con-
tinuing to knock the town and fortifications about
the ears of the besieged, without exposing the brave
troops to the possibility of such a loss as was sustain-
ed in the late assault.

From the complexion of all the late accounts from
the Peninsula we have reason to conclude that Lord
WELLINGTON will enter on no new enterprise till he
has made himself master of St. Sebastian's or Pam-
peluna ; and therefore we reckon upon the operations
carried on against the former, being conducted with
unceasing activity. As to Pampeluna, we are in-
formed that its means of subsistence will not enable it
much longer to stand a strict and effectual blockade.
ionnnates march through that place, on his retreat,
very much reduced its stores, as his whole army drew
three days' supply from its magazines—which would
have served the garrison fir two or three weeks.
We confidently expect to hear of the surrender of
either St. Sebastian's or Pampeluna in a very few days.

We are without any fresh arrivals from the Con-
tinent to-day, but we have made some further extracts
from the French Papers received yesterday. The
events of the campaign are indeed developed with un.
common rapidity. A new theatre of war is now
opened in the direction of Italy. The Bavarian Ge.
neral has declared Salzburgh in a state of siege, and
he calls upon the inhabitants of the Tyrol to arms in
defence of their country. We are thus informed that
the Austrian army is in motion to recover for its So.
vereign his ancient possessions in Italy, and if the
spirit of HOFFER still hovers among his native moun-
tains, or if the patriotic SCHNEMER and his compa-
nions have been liberated from the dungeons of 01-
=luta, in which they were immured by order of the
wretched usurper, for their at:empts to rouse the Ty-
rolese against him, then have we nothing to fear from
the Proclamation of General WREDE. •

The Bavarians cannot now take the field with
BONAPARTE'S Army against Prussia, Sweden, or
Russia, for they must defend their own territory.—
The Royal Family of Bavaria, like that of Saxony,
has also fled from their capital. In the same quarter
Europe, the French*Army of Italy, under EUGENE
BEAUIIARNOIS, is also in motion ; and, from its passing
the Izonzo, we apprehend that offensive, and not de-
fensive operations, are in contemplation, on the part
of the VICEROY. Upon turning to the map of Europe,
our Readers will see, that Austria, after drawing a
cordon around her own frontiers, and detaching an
army towards Italy, cannot spare many troops to co-
operate with the Allies in the North of Europe. But
the preponderance her declaration of war has given
to the Allies is by no means lessened on this account.
On the subject of the real state of affairs in the
North, we are unable to gather any further particu-
I ,r; from the papers now before us. BosaPAnrc is
tvitklitly unwilling to publish any thing respecting
Austria until he can announce a victory. MARI♦
L'UtSA has arrived at Cherburgh. Is she also doomed
to he kept in ignorance respecting the hostilities com-
menced with her father ?

From Lord Wit. BANTINCK they are up to the 19th.
