Numerous reinf ircernents daily pass through, this
town on their wiy t, the army of Portugal. We are
assured, th it in eitrht or ten days, 10,000 men will

• WARSAW, AUGUST 8.
It is confirmed that the Emperor Alexander has
extended the lilt wing of his corps d'armee to Smo-
lensk, to facilitate, by that means, his junction with
Prnce Bagration. We. have reason to-expect, that
for once the enemy will make a stand, and defend
their own cotintry. From this movement upon Smo-
- Jena, it seems that the Russians have no other object
than that of covering the two capitals of Petersburgh
and Moscow; the first•of which is menaced by the
French army, which marches with celerity towards
it. by Newla and the Wielku L ; and the second
byshe army which marches upon Smolensk.
, . VIENNA, AUGUST ts:
The Court" Gazette gives the continuation of
,the
journal of the operations of the Austrian auxiiiary
corps
4, On the 16th of July, Captain-Bractiteville, of the
hussafs of Kienmayer, passed, the Bug at Madowa,
-surprised the piquet of Cossacks, and made the offi-
tee,and his soldiers .prisoners.
41 On the 17th we took at Pinsk, 4 Russian officers,
and-. 184 soldiers. On same day the column of
the regiment of Hussars of Hesse Homburgh, which
bad been sent to the banks of the canal of Oginski,
took a convoy of 198 waggons, and 399 horses.
4, On thi 18th, the Austrian auxiliary corps march-
ed in two columns upon Nieswitz. The one took
the great road of Slonim; the other, commanded by
the Field-Marshal Lieutenant Baron de Frimont, in-
clirn d upon Pinsk end Bohiezin. - Captain Paulini, of
the Hussars of the Emperor, surprised on that day a
Russian post. it Lubitz, and took the officer and
horses prisoners. Some Russiangroops having come
up
-aid support this post, Lieutenant Count Forgacs,
of the same regiment, overthrew them, and killed the
Russian commander.
" On the 21st, a Saxon regiment of cavalry and
_two regiments of infantry entered Kossow, to relieve
the Austrian Major-General Dachmeister.
" On the 25th, the RUSSIANS advanced upon Pinsk,
-which was occupied by the Field-Marshal Lieute-
nant Baron-de Frimont. The object of the enemy
was to retake the considerable magazines which had
been before taken from them ; but after several hours'
skirmishing, they were obliged to retire with great
loss. The waggon-train of the Austrian auxiliary
corps emptied a part of these magazines into 966
waggons. On this occasion a company of the regi-
ment of` the frontiers of Waradin, made a fine de-
fence against the enemy, who attempted to proceed"
beyond La Pina.
6, On the '24th, the Field-Marshal Lieutenant Fri.
merit gave up to the Saxons the positions which he
bad till then occupied, as well as the magazines of
Pinsk, which had not been emptied; and began his
march, to effect at Nieswitz his junction with the first
column of the auxiliary corps.
" On the 25th, Major-General de. Zachmeister was
relieved at Kobrin by the Saxon General de Klen-
gel, and proceeded to re-join the corps d'armee st.
Nieswitz, where the head-quarters arrived on the27th.l
" On the 30th the corps d'armee was to have con-
tinued its march by Minsk, when intelligence was re-
caved from the French General Regnierf that the '
corps of the Russian General Kamenskoi had driven
in the Saxon posts at Brzesc, attacked their advan-
ced guard at Kobrin, and that the object of this corps
seemed to be to advance to cut off our communica-
tion with the Duchy of Warsaw. In consequence,
the Austrian auxiliary corps retrained at Nieswitz,,
to support, in case of need, General Regnier, acd to
be able to attack the enemy in concert with him. -
" On the 31st, in the afternoon, intelligence was
received from General Regnier, that the baton Ge-
neral de Klengel, after having defended Kobrin with
much bravery during ten hours, had been obliged to
surrender, with the greatest part of his brigade; and
that the enemy detached his patroles to the environs
of Pruszana. In consequence of this intelligence,
"the army began its march in the night of the 51st,
