PARIS, MAY 28,
We are assured that authentic letters from Udiao, dated the
19th, at neon, state that accounts had been received there by an
extraordinary Courier of the taking ,of. Trieste by General Mae 4
donald on the 17th; that on the 12th 3000 Austrians in UM.*
Tyrol laid down their arms, and that the division under general
Seras had taken the strong post of Plesf storm, and formed a
junction with the at my of the Viceroy at Tanis.
ROTTF.RDAM, JUNE 1.
The latest Hamburgh letters mention, thet on the 21st Schill
had arrived at Wismar with about 2000 men, infantry and ca-
valry. There are about '7OO in the town, iind tht. remainder are
=toned in the neighbourhood. It is believvd that they will soon
take their departure, to embark. if possible.
On the 24th, the little fortress of Dirnetry, which et as surprised
by Schill on the 15th, was retaken by a company of Dutch grena-
diers and some Voltigeurs belonging to General.Albignac's corps.
A great number of insurgents were kiiled, and the remainder.
made prisoners on this occasion. A number of persons who had
been carried off Ly Schill were get at liberty: 150 boats, w!iich
had been removed to the other side of the Elbe, and some of I
wkicb were loaded with Schill's ammunition and other property, •
were taken. Our grenadiers and voltigeurs had merely one kilLd
and one wounded.

A corps of troops has been assembled under General rwald,'
between Hamburgh and Lubeck, and on the Nth some Danish'•
hussars and jagers, and artillery, arrived at the latter place, which
has been threatened by a visit from Schill's corps.
