VItNNA, Artitr. 29.—Eight thousand French pri.
soners, returning from Russia to France, that were
in Germany, have received counter-orders, and will
now have to make the long journey back again into
the deserts of Russia. It is calculated that orfty
36,000 prisoners have yet returned (rum Russia to
France.

HANZIIIIGII, MAY B.—Yesterday the Home towns
have resolved, through. their &polies here present,
the union of their contingents, which was wished its
[ the last war, but could not he accomplished on ac-
count of circumstances. The arpointmeot of n com-
mon Leader of the Ilanseatit Legion will immediat. fir
take place,. and be notified to the Doke of WEL•
LING fox, under whose command our troops ate to
be placed, along with the contingents of Hanover,
Brunswick, and. Oldenbitrgh.
By this nearer union of the sister cities in the re-
newal of the venerable object of the ancient Hails..
atic League, common resistance to equal daneei and
foreign injustice, the Hanseatie soldier obtains the
certainty of hating around him, among his German
comrades, thousands who are more nearly related to
him by similar situations, will be witnesses to their
[ common country for his conduct. A nettle emula-
tion will animate. all. LCt'e►ery one hold the honour
and the disgrace of his comrades for his own ; let
! him remember when at a distance,.thnt as his Ger.
man Country confides in his arm and his worthy
sentiments, three noble Cities in particular confide
theii glory to him, that they may take their place
with conscious pride in the German union, and be
able to prove that they are worthy of the free Con-
stitution, which the sacred word of two Empe►ors
and two Kings has insured to them, &c. May no
one among those- who remain behind have reason
to say to himself, ." You hive effeminately nvoidei
to pay the sacred debt of a man to the country
that bore and brought you up, you have meanly
let your youthful vigorous hands be idle." He must
blush at the news of every victory, the eyes of the
German virgin will turn from him with contempt.—
The lost goods of this world may be recovered, but
no change of fortune can restore the lustre of tar.
nished honour. Happy the Hanseatic Citizens, that
they enter into the contest with the consciousness of
having already proved that they value honour and
their couotry'a•freedom above fortune and life.

"'BULLT;TIN OF TH E. A ItNI Y. •
" When we had nearly finished printing to-thy 's
Paper, we teceived intelligence that King Joachim
is continuing his retreat from Rimini, where it was
hoped that he would take a position, with such ra-
pidity th3t on the 27th he had his head-quarters at
Percaro. Lieut. Field-Mr rshal Count Neipperg ar-
rived on lite 28th at Cattolica. His advanced-posts
were before Percaro.
