ROTTERDAM, OCT. at.—Private letters received
this morning from the armies Rate, that the French
have taken Ulm ; that a grand battle has taken place
between the Aufitians and the French : that the for
suer have fuffered confiderably : the French have
taken sOOO Auftrians, that is the garrifon of Ulm,
all their arms, ammunition, magazines, &c. The
French have a great number of lolled and wounded.
The Auftrians have retreated behind the Sin ; the
Ruffians are near at hand.
HAG It E, OCT. 20.—0 n the 14th inftant the Coun-
cil of Finance of the Department of Holland gave
public notice to the inhibitants of that Department,
that the fifth inflakunt of the extraordinary contribu-
tion mull be paid on or before the tsth of November
next, in the ratio of poffeffions and income, as fixed
by the publication of the State Direflory, bearing
date the 911 of July, 1804.
OCTOBE R is aliened, that the Auftrian
Envoy to the Batavian Government will quit this
capital tomorrow, having been recalled by the Court
of Vienna.
We are alto informed, that the Ruffian Legation
is making preparations which announce its approach-
iny departure.
The accounts from the French and the Combined
Armies in Germany, which we received at Utrecht
on the 22d, Rate, that Ulm was taken by the French.
with all the extenfive magazines which the Aufirians
were laid to have eftabliffied at that place. It ap-
pears that a general engagement mull have taken
place there, in which the French are Paid to have
taken goon prifoners, and a number of cannon, and
that the Aufirian army was retreating, although the
battle Rill continued at different points. The Moil-
teurs of the t9th and zoth do not make the leaft men-
tion of it.
P. S. According to a report contained in a private
latter from an Officer of rank in the army, we are
informed, that the capture of Ulm, by the French
troops, is fully confirmed. The anion which was
fought in that neighbourhood was moll revere, and
the refult was, that at the departure of the latter, the
Austrian Army, as the Officer reports, was obliged
to give way ; however, Come French Generals were
mortally wounded, and the engagement was not
• overt we erne& every moment to receive farther
intelligence of the final refult ; NAM we dare flatter
ourfelves, that it will be glorious for us and our high

allies.
• The news from the German .Empire, and the in-
• telligence received by letters from Franckfort to the
39th of Oanber, whilft this Paper (the Hope Comma
of °Sober 25), was in the prefs, contain nothing
farther concerning the operations of the two hoftile
armies; they do not yet fpeak of the engagement at
Ulm, nor of that city's being occupied by the French,
and continue equally filent with regard to the great
• loffes which we know, from the French Bulletins,
that the Auftrians have fuffcred. They only con-
firm, that Munich, as well as the other cities fituated
on the prefent theatre of war, being unfurtified places,
are evacuated by the Auftrians, and occupied by the
French and their allies. Letters from Straubing, of
the Lath inftant. Rate, that the firft column of the
Ruffian army had effected its juntlion with the Auf-
trian army on the Inn ; and the fourth divifion of
the Ruffian army (according to intelligence received
from the banks of the Maine) marched through
Btunn on the 6th inflant.

LONDON.

MONDAY, OCTOBER 28.
S r. SIMON AND ST. JUDlew.HOlidly.

Since our 'aft we have received Paris Journals to
the 23d, and Dutch to the 26th WI which, we are
concerned to find filled with details of frell comae:
obtained Ly the French armies.

A fourth and a fifth Bulletin from the army has
been publifbed in the Moriteur, and a letter from 80.
NAPARTE to the Prefe& and Mayor of Paris.
After the affair at Wirtengen, detaiTed in the third
Bulletin (fee the &reit of laft Wednefday) the
corps of General NEY advanced againft Gun(burgh,
a very ftrong pofition, which might be looked
upon as the only fcrtrefs that could prevent the
Auftrians from being driven out of Ulm, and
wouli give them the means, in cafe of any fignal
fuccers, of cutting off the right wing of the French
army, and afterwards haraffing its centre fever ely.
In confequence of this, the Archduke FeRDINARD
nia.e every effort to defend this pofition, againft
which the enemy employed their utmoft efforts, and,
we arc for ry to add, with complete (need's. Accor-
ding Cu the French account, the Auftrians, after a
difplay of great bravery, lotizsoo men, tzcoof whom
were priConers, and fix pieces of cannon.
There is, however, a difcordance between this ac-
count and a paragraph in the fifth bulletin, the latter
of which 11.n.,:5, that on the morning of the I ath Pr ince
FERDINAND WA/. at Munich. The aainn at Gunfburgh
took place nn the toth, and as all the road from Augf-
burg to Landeberg was occupied by the enemy on the
s it!), we do not fee how the Archduke, if he was at
Gurdburgh at all, could reach Munich without fort-

ins coast part of the French line, of which the Bulle• '
tins do not fay one word.
The fuccefs of the French at Gunffturgh kerns to
have kd to another—the capture of Ulm, with the
lofs of feveral thoufand men on the part of the Auf-
tiians, in confequence of which the Actlrian army
retreated towards Upper Suabia. The Archduke
FaRDINAND it Paid to have let off for Vienna after
this anion.

This left affair has not been yet officially Gated
from the army, but the illexitear of the zzd mentions
the circnnzßance, and accounts for the delay of the
official difpatches by fuppofing, that the bearer of
them has been retarded in hit journey, from a 'part
of the Auftrians having gained the left bank of the
Danube, probably for the purpofe of effeaing their
retYcat through Franconia. Some of the minor jour-
nals of the fame date Rate, that the faa had been
announced by the telegraph.
The Pubficille adds, that 30,0= Auftrians had been
killed, wounded, or taken prifoners ; and the Gazette
de France fwells the amount to 4.c5000 prifoners.—
Thefe, however, are Such grofs and palpable exag-
gerations of the faa..that it would be a walk of time
and fpace to attempt to reafon upon them; betides it
is to be obferved, that the Mealiest' of the cad makes
no mention of any telegraphic difpatch having been
received, but contents itfelf with Rating the mere fad
of the furrender of the fo!trefs, in which, no doubt,
feveral thoufand men were made prifoners.
The Gazette de France fpeaking of the capture of
Ulm, Gates, that the Auftrians who eff:aed their efcape
were clofely purfued towards the Tyrol, and confi-
dently predias that the Archduke CH am. a s will &on-
ly be placed between the army of General MAMMA
in Italy, and the grand army in Germany ; while
the Ruffians, who are advancing by the Inn, will
either fuffer a fate Similar to that of the Atifirians, or
be compelled to return immediately to their own
country.

According to letters from Franckfort, BERN a•
DOTTE, who has been joined by the Bavarian troops,
is in full march to meet the Ruffian army ; while
Martini Sou wr has proceeded to Memmingen. The
main body of the French army having pallid the
Lech, it advancing upon the Bier.
As far as we are able to judge from the 4th and
s:h Bulletin, and the details in the minor French
journals, the following appears to be the prefent po-
fition of the armies :—The Auftrians remained firm'
in their old pofition, that is upon the left bank of the
Bier, with their left at Ulm, and their right at Mem-
:Mogen. The extremities of this line were diflant
about thirty miles from each other. Their advanced
ports on the left extended towards the Black Forell,
and their right, towards the rear, was fupported by
a confide:able corps •under General Auer:mac.
Rationed between Stockach and Salmanfweiler.—
The whole force of the French was Rationed on the
right bank of the Danube, between the rivers Lech
and Bier, and confequently between the Außrian
army and the Hereditary States. The corpsof Mar-
fbal Nur, compofing the extremity of the right wing,

was ported on each fide of the Danube, oppofiee to
Ulm. The other divifions of the Grand Army had
taken up various pofitions from thence, more or lets
removed from the Auftrian line, to Lancliberg and
Memmingen, at the latt of which towns Marital
Sputa- intended to be on the t 3th at day break. Two'
other divifioss of the French were advanced confider-
ably nearer the Auftrian frontier; that under BER•
NADOTTB having entered Munich on the lath, after
having made eight hundred prifoners ; and the corps
under the command of DAVOUST having advanced
towards Dachan, about twelve miles to the north-
ward of Munich. It is upon the united force of thole

two divifions, amounting at leaft to forty or fifty
thoufand men, that BON•PARrIr: molt probably re-
lies for the prevention of the junition between the
Ruffians and Auftrians.

We ought, however, to remark, that if we may

rely on the unofficial notice in the Mosittur of the 22d,
refpelting the capture of Ulm, the circumnances of

the Aufitian army teem to have been bettered by
Come movements not yet detailed. The reafon affign-
ed for the non-arrival of the official account of that
affair, that "Anne corps of the .dtJlrian: bad gained the
lift lank of the Danube," and confequently interrupted
the route of.the Army Couriers, 1i 4s to be an ad-
miffion of advantges on the part of the Auflrians not
proper to be yet Rated in BoNApallTa's publications.
—The fifth bulletin Rated, that General kirs• was
polled on herb banks of the Danube, oppofite to Ulm.
Are we to fuppofe the whole, or the greater part, or
any confiderable portion of the Außrian army to
havelucceeded in eluding his vigilance, and by a
rapid march to have gained the left bank of the Da-
nube, and taken up thole very pofitions at Neu-
burgh, Donauwert, and Ingollladt, which the French
had lately qnitted ? So brilliant a movement would

not be unwarhty of the genius of FR EDIRICIL the
GREAT. The AuMan force was ftrongly concenter.
ed on the Bier ; the extremities of the two wings were
not more than a good day's march afunder, and there
was nothing to oppofe them on the left bank of the
Danube but that portion of NEY'S divifion which was
polled there. The operation we have fuggelleddoes
not therefore appear to be quite impraaicable.
By this time we hope, thePrufrtan forces are on their
march to the fcene of zillion. If we may credit ru-
mours circulated in quarters, which ought to be in•
formed on fuch a point, official accounts to that

elle& have bun received by Government. It i
plain that BONAPARTE by the rapidity of his move-
ments willies to' prevent the interference of Pru
from having any effect on the iffue of the prefent cam-
paign; but the Court of Berlin ulna be aware
of the circumflance. and alfo that if he fucceed in
this object, the Pruffian territories will form his next
objet of plunder and devaftation. This muit
late their movements, and we thould think would
foon bring them into the field.

Lord HARROWBY is the AmbalTador Extraordinary
appointed to go to Berlin to negotiate a fublidiary
