sing, the Archduke on the 23d of April crossed
the Danube near Ratiabon, aid joined the corps
of Bellegarde, who had opened the campaign by
several successful affairs its the Upper Palatinate,
had reached Ambcrg, Neumarkt and Reman, and
had by this time approached Stadt.am.Hof, in
order to execute its iiansediate junction with the
iatthdake.
The Emperor Napoleon ordered the bombard-
t of Radiant) occupied by a few battalions
ho were to cover the passage of the Danube. On
ire 43d in the finales he became master of it, and
Ilbsitedintely hastened along the right bank of the
Danube to eater the Austrian States, bt anise, as
he openly declared, to dictate peace at Vilma&
The Austrian army bad tnk. a a positions near
Chain, behind the River Regen, which was
*etched by some of the enemy's divisions, while
the Emperor Napoleon called all the disposable
troops, in forced marches, from the North of
Ganimey to the Danube, and considerably rein.
toned his army with the troops of IVurtemberg,
Rally Baden, and some time after with those of
Saxony.
Near Kivu and Nittenan, some affairs had hap-
pened between the oat-posts, which, however,
had no influence upon the armies.
However easy it would have been for the Arch.
duke to continue his offensive operations on the
left bank of the Danube without any material re-
sistance, and however gratifying it might have
been to relieve provinces which weregroaning he.
moth the pressure of foreign dominion ; the pre.
serration of his native land did not permit him to
suffer the enemy to riot with impunity in the en-
trails of the monarchy, to give up the rich source
of its independence, and expose the welfare of the
subject to the devastations of foreign conquerors.
These motives induced the Archduke to con-
duct his army to Bohemia, by the way of klentseli'
and Neumarkt, to occupy the Bohemian forest
with light troops and part of the militia, and to
direct his march towards Budweis, where be ar.
rived on the Sd of May, hoping to join near
Lintz, his left wing, which had been separated
from him, and which was under the command of
Lieut.. Gen. Baron Hiller.
But the latter had been so closely pressed by.
the united force of the French armies, that, after.
several spirited engagements, and even after a
brilliant affair, in which he had the advan=
near Neumarkt, and in which the troops ach
all that was possible against the disproportionate
superiority of the enemy, he indeed was able to
reach Lintz, but was incapable of crossing the
Danube, and obliged to content himself with de.
straying the communication with the left bank,
and taking up a position behind the Traun near.
Kbersberg. This was the occasion of an ex-
, tremely murderous engagement, during which the
enemy, in storming the bridge, lost near 4000
men Ebersberg was set on fire, and Lieut.. Gen.
!filler continued his retreat, till he got so much
the stact as to pass the Danube near Stain without
being disturbed by the enemy, and to wait the
approach of the Archduke, who, after having in
vain attempted the junction of the army near
Lints, had marched from Budweia to Zwcttel ;
still hoping, by a quick passage of the Danube,
to arrest the enemy's progress towards the me-
tropolis.
Meanwhile a corps of Wurtembutghers had ad.
evinced from Passau along both the shores of the
Danube, had occupied Lintz and the bank oppo-
site to it; had restored the bridge, and signalized
itself by destroying the defenseless villages and
castles which could not be protected by the small
advanced guard proceeding by the side of the main
army.
The enemy, by marching through the valley of
the Danube in the straightest line, had got so much
ahead, that ail hopes of coming up with bile le
front of Vienne vanished; still, however, if that'
city had been able to hold out fur live days, It
might have been relieved ; and the Arehdnke re-
solved on venturing the utmost to rescue that good
city, which, by the eacelleet disposition of its ci.
tizens, the faithful attachment to its Sovereigns
and its noble devotion, has raised to itself an eter.
nal monneieet in the annals of Austria. All his
plans wen now directed towards pitting the
bridges across the Danube, seer Vienna, and en-
deavouring to save the imperial ausishmice by a
combat under its very walls.
Vienna, formerly to important fittttals, was be
vaiii besieged by the Turks, cad would) epee mow,
from the solidity of its ramplets, the straws pos.
Iles of its works, and the eelmasive spasm of ha
mines, be capable of makbrki prollralend rode&
sine, had not, for upward, of a mt." hicks the

preparations amounted ,
_ the place against a coup.
...an ; and fur this reason the Archduke bad
some time before directed Field-Marshal Hiller to
send part of his corps along the right bank to-
wards the capital; in the event of his (the Arch-
ke's) passage to the left shore.
Field-Marshal Hiller now received orders to
burn the bridge near Stain in his rear, to leave a
small corps of observation near Krems, to haste*
by forced marches with the bulk of his army to
the environs of Vienna,- and, as circumstances
would permit, by occupying the small island's, to
keep up the communication with the city and the
&honcho across the bridges.
The army of the Archduke now advaseed,
without ieterraption, by Neepolla, Horn, and
Wetkenderf open Stockerau ; and, in order to
overawe such enterprizes as the enemy might pro.
jest from the environs of Lint; part of the corps
of the General of Artillery, Count Kollowratby
which till then had remained near Pilsen, with a
view to secure the North and West frontier of
Bohemia, was ordered to march to Budwies.
Napoleon had used so much expedition on his
march to Vienna, that un the 9th of May his ad.
sauced troops appeared on the glacie ol the for.
tress, whence they were driven by Some cannon
list. From three to four thousand regular troops,
'as many armed citizens, and some battalions of
country militia, defended the cay ; ordnance of
various calibre was placed upon the ramparts; the
suburbs were abandoned on account of their great
extent; and the numerous islands and low bushy
ground behind the town 7:= upied by some
light troops of the corps of Hiller, as welt Zs by
militia.
`' The corps itself was posted on what is tensed
" the Point," on the left shore of the river, wait-
ing the arrival of the army, which was advancing
in haste.

The occnpation of Vienna formed too essential
a part in the extensive plans of the French Em.
peror; its conquest bad been announced by him
with too much confidence, and was of too great
importance towards confirming the prejudice of his
irresistible power, for him not to employ every
method of taking it before the assistance which
wu so near could arrive. A
For the space of twenty-four hours the howit.
sus played upon the town ; and though several
houses were set on tire, the courage of the inha.
bitants remained unshaken. But a general devas-
tation threatened their valuable property) and
when at length the enemy, availing himself of the
numerous craft which he found there, crossed the
smaller, branches of the Danube, dislodged the
troops from the nearest islands, and menaced their
communicatiou with the left bank, the city was
justified in capitulating, while the troops retreated
by the great bridge of Tabor, which they after.
wards set on fire.

The Archduke received this intelligence in his
headquarters, between Horn and Meissen, and
though it was scarcely to be expected that this
city, surrounded as It was, should continue its re.
sistance, the Arcbduke proceeded on his •arch
without interruption, flattering himself that be
might still be able to execute hit, favourite project
by a bold attempt to pass the Danube near Vi•
eons.

This city capitulated on the 13th of May, so
that there was no farther occasion to expose the
army to hazard by crossing the Danube., for which
no sufficient preparation had been made, and
which must have been effected in the face of the
enemy, and under circumstances of the greatest
disadvantage. By the surrender of Vienna, the
army had also lost a point of support on which to
rest its military operations.
In this situation of affairs, the Archduke re.
solved to collect his army at the foot of the hill
Bisamberg, and allow it a few clays of rest, Which
after so many forced marches it urgently wanted.
The cavalry, for the convenience of water, was
posted along the Rnss, a small rivulet, which is
concealed by ground covered with bashes, and the
advanced guards pushed forward to the Danube, in
order to observe the movements of the enemy, and
prevent his passing the river, which he bad already
attempted to do from Ness,levf, to what is called
the Stack Lake, bet with se little success, that
battalion of his advanced guard was taken. The
chain of the out-posts eatanded on the left side as
far as the March, anal on the right to Krems; this
place and Presburg were occupied by some baths.
lions, mid the head-quarters of the Archduke
were, on the 10th May, at, Ebersdorf, near the
high road leading to Bruno.
ale the 19th, the out-posts repined that the
enemy had taken possession of the great island of
Labatt, within about sus Engliih miles of Vienne,
that his number increased there every hour, sad
