Napoleon begins 10 develops itself. The
different corps of the army of Germany
have at this moment arrived at their re-
spectiye points of action The principal
sobiect Of this sudden, and wsllTdirec,ed
movement is 10 prevent the junctIon OF
the Russian army with the main army ut
the Austrians, by cutting of the latter and
throwing j, back upon the Tyfol. For this
purpose great parcel the French forcesbas
advanced towards Donawerth and 4Dgol-
stadt, to make itself master Of the Danube,
10 pass that river and 10 flank the Austrians
upon the Her, from Ulm to Memiagsn.
This appears 70 be the plan Of the French,
and every thing announces, thatslt will be
crowned with success.

through which the emperor has passed
give an astonishing idea of the activity OF
this monarch. The day of his arrival at
Ludwigaburg, although very much ia
tigued, he paid visit to the Elector and
his lady. Al one O'Clock in the morning
he retired 10 rest and roseat threee. He
has constantly three hundred horses his

pents warning so tina, no one knows the
hour of their departure or destination.
