Rules and Regulations for the Field Exer-
else and MaHGnytes OF the French Infantry,
issued August ist, t1sI; and the ManGu4
Sres added, which hare been since adopted
by the emperor Napoleon: Also, the Ma
neus.es OF the Field Artillery, with Infap-
try. BY Col. Irenee AmeIot de Lacroix, la,e
Chief Of Brigade in the French service. In
three volumes, the third volume consisting
of plates. ~
The principal part Of this work; has been
| translated from French 10 English, by Lieut..
Col Macdonald, in the service Of His Britain
nick majesty. Col. de Lacroix has not only
awaited himself OF Macdohald's translation,
bur has retained the principal theories, with
which Col NJ. has enriched his work, espe-
ciaiiy his comparison of the French tactics
with the PIusslan, and the principles of the
different nations with tive kngiish; because
those valuable notes are sufficient for such
Comparisons, and are in point. Col. De L.
has augmented those notes.
The introduction OF Col. de Lacroix' works
viii direct the attention of the young Ameri-
cans to the study Of learned tactics, the re-
suit Of experience, and enable them to obtain
the precision desirable in the warrior, for
they must be convinced that good officer
forms a good soldier, and that the expert
ence of ages has demonstrated, that the SOL
der viii perform his duty correctly, when he
is we'll commanded. - ~.
AT the end OF the second volume OF this
work, Cot. Ds Lacroix has added the maEou'
yres OF the field artillery with the infantry,
according to the French principles. It NOT
necessary to lavish praises on the advantage
Of moving ti,is laundering arm with the same
facility ana celebrity as the line, Europe Is
now convinced and coufesses II He has ado
died Plates, which demonstrate those marGu-
syres 10 essential 90 che greaf "opcfations OF
war, and which will enable officers tn execute
tlsens d.. =. .'. .,,5..F..t,.
Cob de Laeroix has judged it also exPedi-
ent TO add 70 this book some new adopted
marnuvres, which have been put in practice
to great advantage in the face of an enemy.
10 enhance the value of this work is the only
motive could induce him to augment its size.

BY the Portia, we have received the Star,
London print of the 2sth of January, the
latest, probably, in the country. But SO
members attended in the House of Com
none on the Gath of January, which was
adjourned by the speaker, for want of a
quorum.
American intelligence had been received
to the 21st of December.
The resolutions offered by Mr.. Macon,
on the 18th of December, together with the
most important of. the proceedings of the
House of Representatives of the 18th, taken
from the National Intelligencer, containing
an abstract of the provisions of the bill re-
ported by Macon, are given.
An article from Constontinople states,
that after the battle of Silistria the Russians
applied for an armistice for two months,
which was refused by the victorious Turks.
The ex-king and queen Of Sweden had ar
rived a, Stralsund, on their way to Swift
acknowledgement papers had been received
at London to the 18th Of January. The
Star says
"We mentioned ON Tuesday the arrival
of an American gentleman from Calais
with dispatches for Mr.. Piukney. His
name is Caldwell, and the runner in the
political circle is, that he has brought in
,elligcnce thar the French emperor has or
dered the con6scation and sale at all Ame.
rican property in the ports of Spain, Italy
and France that general Armstrong was
in great alarm in consequence OF the state

The gentleman alluded to states that he
had been very III used at Calais by the Off
GERS of the government, who took from hiM
all his private letters, and were even pro-
ce.ding to seize his dispatches, which he
saved only by saying that they must first

FROM SPAIN,

Our Spanish papers by the Caledonia, do
n"; contain any particular details fthe pro.
Gress or occurrences OF the French army.
ltcannos however be concealed, that early
% February, they were directly in the
neighborhood Of Cadiz, to which place the
jun'a, accompanied by Large body of the
most respectable inhabitants of Seville, had
fsd tor refuge from the enemy. This in
crease OF population, under circumstances
o! danger and alarm, had induced the 60
'cTnmea1 to issue the following edict -
"CAnIZ, Feb. 7.
lhls island is surrounded by enemies,
who are actively endeavoring to reduce it
hS cutting off the necessary snpI lies of
wood, WAGER and provisions, The people
az hereby called upon tn use their Influence
10 invite and procure these supplies. Ehe
bakers are required to keep their men, who
ate exempt irom public service, constantly
sngay, d III their occuration. The inha-
biulG;s are Likewise requested to deliver to
the government all the 81 >e:tluous iron bars,
&. 10 be converted into means Of strength
and deien:e against the eneUy."
Although the contents Of our Spanish
gaLcttrs indicates crisis oi peculiar trial,
there rs nothing in them which epinces de-
spon,lency in the governmrnsor the people.
In C?diz particularly, spirit OF uncon-
Gnecahie patriotism and DETERMINED resist.
snre is every where manifested.
