VIENNA, SEPTEMBER IS.
A journal published hoe has the following anee,,,
dete with regard to the Archduke Charles, which li
r not generally known This Prince was born at
Florence, on the sth September, 1771. As he had
two brothers older than himself, his anguat parenbi
destined him for the church. He would have had, in
consequence, an electorate or a rich principality. A
trifling circumstance occasioned his quitting this pur-
suit, to follow the crareer of arms. Joseph 11. being
in Italy, in 1776, visited his brother Leopold, Grand
Duke of Tuscany. To flatter the warlike spirit of
the• Emperor, the play-things of. the young Princes
realeired the addition of all the equipments of soldiers,
which particularly delighted the Archduke Charles,
.*,ll* was then five years old. The morning after the
arriVat of the Emperor, his Grand master found the
yotMg•Psinceat his uncle's door, with a sword by his
5414 shouldering his musket, and drawn up -with the
body guards. to What do you there, my Prince,"'
slicr tlie'Ciand-master t " I asaguarding my uncle,"
replied the Archduke, coolly, At this moment the
Emperor Joseph came out of his chamber—he took
hit heill.cw in his arms, and said to him-4, Very
well, my little friend, I cannot he better guarded
than by my own relatives ; however, I will reward
your zeal ; and, to make you one day a good Ge-
neral, I give you the regiment Charles ofLorainell
which ie vacant at present." Since that moment,
• rite Archduke has had that regiment, which is Wl-
attadied to him, and to which he is cOnstautly
• giving prod's of his regard." •

. Yesterday commenced in the plain of Forst, near
Cassel, the grand autumn reviews. The King re.
' paired to the around at hatf•past six in the morning,
end did not quit it till sii in the afternoon. For the
fe•st time, the greatwr part of the Westphalian army
vac assembled togethet. Twenty battalions of in.
fantry, *lO twenty squadrons of cavalry, were drawn
tip in that vast plain.
. His Majesty was received with enthusiasm by the
tromps. Having reviewed each hatt-ilion separately.
he. ordered • that some young-officers, whom he had
called out of the ranks without selection, should take
the command of each battalion. The manceuvres
were performed with steadiness and precision.
The (tletil and her Imperial Highness Madame,
were resent at this i:,rand spectacle, placed in a small
tent erected on one of the hillocks of the plain ; they
there breAlasted with his Majesty.
The King was about twelve hours on horseback/
• • incessantly passing along the line, examining the
eqnipments of the troops in their minutest details, and
stolcring their movements.

We are unable to present our Readers with any
official confirmation of thC report of Lord Wu..
Linares's iictory over the French army. Although
we cannot give implicit exedit to the tumour of a
victory to the extent claimed by the accounts by
the way of Oporto, we are inclined to think that
some threatening movement in advance has beep
made by MARMONT, which may have brought ea
a partial action between the advanced corps of the
!simile armies. Our readers will recollect that we
stated yesterday, upon the authority of some Offi.
•ears who arrived from the Tagus by the Roartmus
and 'Loren, that Lord Wccutiaroht hail retired
behind the Coa, in consequence of the French hay- I
jng succeeded in relieving Ciudad Rodrigo. We
see no reason as yet to doubt the truth of this
statement ; indeed the following letter from Falmouth
seems to confirm the, belief that Manstoarr has es.
sumed such a formidable posture a; to induce ;lord
We+Lucorott to take up a stronger position t

<a rrj vt d lam evening the you's, Lorry, and the
Garger E. (transports) Eowaens, from Lisbon ; left
it on the 30th September, at which time it was re-
! ported that Iv/sawmill was rapidly advancing, and
that a battle was shortly expected. All the troops
iin the depot at Belem were ordered to the neighbour-
hood of Ciudad Rodrigo. MmtstoNr's force is said
to be 80,000 men. The Princess Elizabeth packet
was to sail two days after with mails for England."
The following communication confirms the opinion
which we have hazarded as above of an affair of ad.
vapced posts having taken place :
OPORTO. OCTOBER 1.
4. It is said and believed that a very severe skirmish
between the adVanced posts of the two armies took i
place on the 25th ult. in which we were at first re-I
pulsed ; but by the coming up of the 9th and 21st
Portuguese regiments, the enemy were obliged to re-
treat : and report goes further, that we retook some
pieces of flying artillery which we had lost. A gene-
ral engagement was expected next day, or on the
27th—we therefore hourly expi-ct accounts.—The
Militia here are all ready to mar4ll, should it be ne-
cessary."
A Cadiz Mail an ived this mornhsg, brinping a
mass of intelligence, from which we have made the
following selections, relative to the recent operations
of the Spanish armies
CADIZ, SEPTEMBER 17.
Intelligence has been received from Gen. Freyre;
relative to the late successes of the 3d Army, which
was accompanied by various other documents, and
among them those from General O'Donnell, giving
an account of the battle of Zujar; and from General
Quadra, relating the circumstances, and necessity of
a retreat. The total of the enemy's force against the,
front and centre of our line, amounted to 10,000 in-I
Pantry—their loss 2,200; and our less in Zujar more
than 1,500 men, without including the missing, it
not having been possible for General Quadra to coo.
cert his operations with General O'Donnell. This
last mentioned Qeneral assures us. that with two.,
battalions more, he would have been victorious in
Zujat: he fought with superior numbers, which, to.
gether with the disadvantageous position of Pozobe-
Icon. had determined the retreat of Gen. Quadra.
SAME DATE.—According to intelligence from Ga-
licia, which come dawn to the 3d inst. the 6th Army,
which had prudently fallen back, has, returned, and
now occupies its old positions, which Have been aban.
