THE CONTINENT.

Foreign Journals to the 3'll ult. arrived lafl night.
The principal article which they prefent, is a copy
of the Sixty•fifth Bulletin of the French army, dated
at Oflerode, the loth of March ; but having had
intelligence of a later date from that quarter, it is
only valuable in as far as its details are more ample
than the accounts given in the German papers which
had before reached us:

The Military operations recorded in this Bulletin,
are, however, of no great importance. Some affairs
of polls took place at the beginning of March, the
refult of which is Rated to be, the lots of nearly one
thoufand men to the Ruffians. Indeed, the French
claim no greater advantage from them, than that of
Gs having difiurbed the enemy, after which the army
returned to its cantonments." We have not been
accuftomed to hear, that two divifions of the French
army, confillOg of 40,c00 men at leak were put in
motion for fo pa:..ry a purpofe.
We should have expeded that when NEY and
Soucy croffed the Paffarge, it was with the intention
of atchieving fomethicg more brilliant than driving
back a few Coffacks. Even this, it appears, was not
effected with impunity, as three of their regiments
were attacked in the courfe of the night by a (mall
Ruffian corps, which probably was the fignal for a
general retreat, although the enemy boaß cf having
the advantage in the affair.
At the date of this Bulletin, five divifions of the
French army, betides the Polifh Auxiliary Corps,
were efiablithed in cantonments from the mouth of
the Paffarge to the Omulef, which difcharges itfelf
into the Narew. The left wing under Blevanovva,
is Rated to occupy Braunlberg and the right, under
gassio4, relied on the °mold. 1.7n4c1' ;OM of

this formidable line, BONAPAItTF, it appears, finds
hirnfelf ftrong enough to inveft Dantzic, about which
Maribal LIIFFEVRB, it is (aid, began to form lines of
circumvallation. We can colle& nothing from this
Bulletin refpeeling the pofition of the main Ruffian
Army ; but we should fuppofe it was not far removed
from the right bank of the Paffarge. The pofition
of the French army was as much concentrated as it
could well be, when we confider the exhaufted Rate
of the country which it occupies. It is evident that
Bomeearra has determined to tifque another gene.
ral engagement, before he fuffers himfelf to be drirea
behind the Viftula. A battle indeed feems to be ine.
vitable. We know not what hopes 13111•PARTE may
have of fucceeding againft Dantzic; but it is hardly
to be believed, that General Baniiicsair will fuffer
fo important a fortrefs to fall, without making forge
grand effort to relieve it. This can only be effeeled
by driving the French from their prefent pofitioa.
As long as they are able to maintain it, the liege of
Dantzic will experience little interruption, except
from the ftrength and vigour of the garrifon which
defen lb it.

The accounts from Paris Rate, that two Ruffin
!hips, with troops, for Corfu, had been funk by the
Turki(h forts, in attempting to pats from the Black
Sea to the Mediterranean.—lt is not very likely that
any occurrence of the kind has taken plaie. The ex.
prriment was one of too much danger, to be attempt.
