in a few weeks, and he becomes °master of the Rus-

transported all the graia and forage into the rear of
the army, the whole of Prussia and Germany will be
in a state •of starvation; the scatcity of forage, in
':articular, is such, that they have been obligd in
runny places to unroof the thatched houses to get
food for their hoists. Letters from Colberg, dated
tree --t'h inst. save, that up to that time no French
tmops had made their appearance iu that city ; but
