IMPORTANT VICTORY

GAINED BY TILE

RUSSIANS AND. P.IitISSIANS,
ov .1111.411,144:11,. AT hiAOI)kitURGII.

A Heligoland Mail arrived this morning, by which
we hate received the important intelligence of a great
vi:tory obtained by the Russian and Prussian armies
over the French, near hlagdeburgh. By the follow.,
log account, it appears that the French made a sortie
from the strong fortress of Mrigdeburgh, and. were
iii.feated with the loss of THREE GENERALS
aNd SEVENTEEN THOUSAND MEN. If the
rcsult of this battle should have been so advantageous
to the Allies, we can have no hesitation in saying, it
Must greatly frustrate the designs of NAPOLEON.
lIELIOOLAND, AralL 24.—A vessel has just ar-
rived, which leftAltona yesterday, at•cleven o'clock,
the Captain states, that an .official account had been
published at Ilamburgb, by General TettenboVn,
on the morning of that day, announcing that the
Frt.nch, having made a sortie from Magdeburg, were
attacked by the combined Russians and Prussians,
uho completely defeated them with the loss of three
(;morals and 17,000 men. The Captain affirms
thellulletin had been published, and caused universal
joy in Ilatehurgh.
_ _

Arum 23.—Divoust is again at• Luneburg—
Dornberg rs on the alert, to prevent his passing the
Elbe, with 7000 men.

At Hamborgb all are learning the use of tuns ;
some works of defence are thrown up on the river
side; an order has been given that all vessels *.d
crafts should be Arno Ted from the HanovVvian side
of the Elbe over to Hamburgh, to prevent theimssi-
bility of his getting across below where Doroberg is
posted.

About '2OOO -Cossacks advanced as far as within
four miles of Bremen; they posted themselves at Lilen-
ilial. A sortie was made from Bremen., and the
Cossacks left the place ; they, however, made an at-
tack from another quarter, awl again drove the
French out of Lilenthal, the whole of which was
consumed by fire. The French retired to Bremen.—
From Bremen we have no diree.t news, but by way
of Cuxhaven we are informed, there were about 7000
17-2 n there, under Van Danune.—tiuth the old and
a v town are in their possession. The beautiful
plantations ou the ramparts have been cut down, and
s.,nie works of defence have been thrown up on them,
and outside of one of the gates.

It reported a corps of Cossacks has crossed the
Rica Weser,

In Bremen 8000 dollars bare been again levied by
the French. •

On the 20t11 inst. a letter was sent from Mr. flier-
man to Gen. Tettenborn, accompanied by 6001. ster-
ling, the amount of a subscription raised on this
small island, for the equipment of the Hanseatic
Legion. Our GOvernor handsomely contributed to-
wards it, thus setting a noble example.
II AMIICRGE, APRIL 20.—Oar armaments ger on
excellently ; in ('he course of this week our citiien-
pard, composed of six battalions, will be cerl4inly
organized.

if.tunuastr, APRIL 20.--LAccording to authentic
information, the first English ship which arrived here
was neither detained by order of the Commandant
at Gluckstadt, nor has any correspondence regard-
ing that vessel taken place between the Cern;
maudant of this city and the High Precedency 'at
Altona, as being a Court which had no concern with
the business.

RA-maw', Aram 43.—0 n the 3d inst. his Whitey, '
nir King (of Bavaria), arrived here between two avid
ton e o'clock, accompanied by his Royal Rightlak
Prince Charles, in the strictest incognito, to pay st..l
visit to their Saxon Majesties, with whom they spent
the whole of the evening. They likewise dined and
spent the evening with them on the foll;Aving day.
At four o'clock yesterday morning his Majesty again
left our city and returned back to Munich.
STARGARDI APRIL B.—Yesterday a bloody affair
took place near Damm, between the Prussian ad-
vanced guards and theognrrison, which made a sally,
in which 40 men were killed, and nearly 100 wound-
ed, on our side. The French were, however, forced
to retire back to Drain, as our people fought like
lions. The greater pare of the beautiful village was
destroyed by fire, and it is almost entirely ruined.
