and other enemy's troops, which he engaged,
killed 200, among whom were officers, and made
1l prisoners.

" On the 9th inst. the enemy attempted to ren-
der himself master of the post of Theben, situ.
aced opposite to Ifeimbergh, probably with a
view of taking Presburgh, and the bridge-head
constructed on the right banks of the Danube.
Five hundred men approached our banks in five
vessels, but one Austrian battalion of militia
(handwehr) which were posted there gave the
enemy such a warm reception, that he found him-
►elf compelled to retreat with the utmost speed.
" The battalion of Bohemian militia, which is
commanded by Count Ifuntineuti, has captured.
in the vicinity of the village of Obermiel, two
large vessels laden with rice and brandy, and de.
'tined for the enemy's army."

WOLYERSDORIP, Jt" It—His Majesty the
Emperor' of Austria has received the following
report, by a courier who was dispatched from
Inspruck the 31st of May :
" After Field Marshal Lieut. Chasteler, who
commanded in Tyrol, had marched to Lienz, in
'Pusterdale, in order to attack the Italian army,
which was advancing against Styria and Corinthia,
with part of his corps, the Austrian Major Gene-
ral Buol remained, with part of the 7th corps,
in the strong position at the foot of the Brenner
Mountain, in the Lueg, in order to cover South
Tyrol from the attacks of the Bavarian troops,
who had entered Inspruck.
66 While the ,inhabitants of the towns of Ins-
pruck and Hall were laying down their arms in
order to relieve their districts from the calamities
they suffered, fresh assemblages of armed peasants
were formed in the vale of the Upper Inn, as
well as the Lech, and in Vinslgau. with the assist-
ance of Telmer, as in the dale of the Lower Inn
and the Wipp, chiefly by tt ‘vellanown Sand.

the Marshal Prince of Poive-Corvo entered this
city ; a strong division of Saxon troops forms part
of that corps.
On the 3tb, a heavy cannonade was heard on
the part of Klaster-Neuberg. It la now known
that the French had collected a large quantity of
pontoons, and other necessaries, for the construc-
tion of bridges, which the Austrians destroyed by
the above cannonade.

The French are employed in constructing nom.
ben of large rafts, Which are all carried up the
Danube to Ebersdorf.

WHETHER the long inacti►ity of NAPOLEON,
on the Danube, has given confidence to those
persons on the Continent who are hostile to the
French interest—or whether the loss of the
French army was really so great as the reports
from various parts of the Continent, noes repre-
sent it to have been, is a question, the truth or
falsehood of which cannot at the present mo.
ment be ascertained—but certain it is, that ac-
counts hare been rereited from Paris, in which
the loss of the French is swelled to 40,000 men.
This, whatever may be the exaggeration of the
report, tends to slices, that in the capital of
France, the reputation of NAPOLEON e invincibi.
lily must have snstained a most important blow.
--The battle of Esling---the long protracted inac-
vity of NAPOLEON at Vienna—the insurrections
in Germany—the evacuation of the capitals of
their kingdoms by the ephemeral vassal Monarchs
of NAPOLEON'S creation...and the preparations
at length making by England—have already pro.
duced a new and strong sensation throughout
France.—and the superficial minds of the Parisians,
...versatile and fluctuating as the wind--are
alike prepared to deify their hero NAPOLEON, if
he is ultimately successful.--air to execrate his life,
and conduct, should he, at last, be abandoned
by the fickle Goddess Fortune, whose smiles he
has so long contrived almost to monopolize....
We, now for the first time, learn, not only by
the information of persons very recently arrived
from France, but by the accusations in the public
Journals, that " bad news" begins to find a cir-
culation there. Of this the Dutch are accused
as the authors.—" All the bad news, all the re.
66 ports unfavourable to Franco have their source
46 in Holland." Against this charge the Dutch
Journalists have published their defence—which
is just such as might have been expected from a
people, who had never fought for liberty—or
who had never tasted of the cause of freedom ;
but that so mean, so servile, so despicable an
apology should issue from the public press of
Holland, is a proof of the degradation of the
people of the ei.derant Republic, which almost
surpasses credibility. It is, in truth, almost in.
credible that the descendants of those men, who
for thirty years maintained a war against the force
of the then united Monarchies of Spain and Austria,
for their freedom, can have descended to justify
their fidelity to that man who overturned the sys-
tern of Government—the Republic of Holland—
for which their forefathers fought and bled.

" Are they (the French writers) ignorant of
6" the patience, the resignation, with which Hol.
" land has supported tho sacrifices required, to
maintain the only system that can cola, ilute to
" the vast designs of the great Afonarch who
6, governs France ?" What did the iohabi.
tants of Holland say to the vast designs of
the great Monarch who governed France when
the Prince of ORANGE came from the Ave Re.
public of Holland by the invitation of the people
of England in 1088 I—Were those men disposed
to concur in—co.operrte with—and bleed for that
great Monarch Louis the 14th, In his vast design
of universal monarchy ?.--" D,) they not know
" that the Dutch troops have been present at all
" the victories gained by the French Generals in
" Spain ?"...What, are the Republican Holland-
ers so abased, as unblushingly to boast of having
been actors in that mast infamous of tragedies.__
the invasion of unoffending Spain ? !!

The Dutch character once stood on a most
proud eminence : industrious, frugal, moral, de.
termieed foes of despotism, proud and haughty
republicans...-Of the former qualities they may yet
retain as much as the corruption of French man.
ners and influence cams leave to any people who
have been doomed for some years to the contami-
nation of French association; bet the latter we
cannot hesitate to pronounce extinct in the minds
of these ci-derant Republicans. True it is,
that this defender of the Dutch press may be
some French agent, appointed by the great Mo-
narch to expound the nature of Liberty to a people
who seem so little to have understood it as the
Dutch...." Holland would believe it an honour, as
64 well as a duty, to partake of the reverses of
44 France,toere it possible that the incom parable ge—
" nius of the Monarch who governs France could
66 sufferany." This paragraph can havecome from
the pen of no man but a Frenchmen ; and we arc

pected, is not deficient in exertion to surmount
obstacles which have arrested his progress, and It
cannot be doubted that his next effort will be
fully proportioned to the obvious emergency of the
situation in which he is placed. The force
which he rowintands is certainly hansom.

THE Favourite cutter, from Gijon, kings the
mortifying news, that immediately fleet the cap-
ture of St. Andero by the Spaniards, it was re-
captured by a corps of 3000 French troops, and
the greatest part of the Spanish garrison pet to
the sword. The accounts, therefore, that we
have received from the north of Spain of the dis.
estrous situation of the French there, must be,
as almost all our accounts from the Peninsula have
in truth been, erroneous. From many parts of
Spain we have accounts of the successes of the
Patriots ; but repeated disappointments render it
impossible to place any faith in these statements.

IxTrwcurcz has been received from Portngal,
but nothing from Sir ARTHUR WILLISLEY. The
cause of his long state of inaction is variously ac.

counted for; but we feel difficult to believe that
the want of stores and necessaries for the troops
can be the real cause, for Ministers 'Orel/ cannot
but have profited by the experience of the nume-
rous miscarriages that hare happened b, their
former blunders.

It is certainly not a little extraordinary to fled*
that after all the boasting there has been of the dis.
asters of the*Freneb in the Peninsula, they cannot,
even with our assistance, be driven out of the nor.
there provinces of Spain. King Jowls continues to
exercise his regal functions in Madrid. And while
NAPOLEON is absent with the flower of his army
on the banks of the Danube, his Generals main.
tame themselves in Spain in spite of all our efforts.
SOUZA we have driven out of Portugal, and of
what possible advantage is that to us whilst Spain
is in the possession of the French ? Will any
man now doubt that had not NaroLsosr been

called from Spain to Germany, " there would
" not at this moment have been a village in the
4 4 Peninsula in insurrection ?" Bat for the coo•

otherwise be felt. The Proclamation or Firman

tone—but it may be feared that the superiority of
the Russian discipline will ultimately prevail.
