On the 4th the Emperor set out from

The army put itseIfin motion. At two in the
afternoon we perceived the Russians form
cd with their right upon Moskwa, the left
upon the heights on the left bank Of the Ko-
logha At 1900 toises in advance of the
left the enemy had begun to fortify fine
height, between two woods, where they had
placed nine or ten thousand men. The En-
peror having reconnoitered it, resolved not
to lose moment, and to carry this position.
Orders were given to the King of Naples To
pass the Koogha, with the division Com
pans and the cavalry. Prince Poniatowsky.
who had marched OH the right, was in a con-
dition 70 turn the position. At four o'clock
the attack commenced. In one hour the

non the enemy's corps driven from the
wood. and put to Fight, leaving the third
part on the ield Of battle. AZ seven in the
evening INC firing ceased.

THE BATTLE Of MOSKSVA,
Detailed in the 18th French Bulletin fur
nishes a parallel to the Battle of Aus,erlits.
1t was fought, it seems, in the neighborhood
OF Mojaisk, a town on the main route to the
great City Of Moscow. ut which latter place
there is now reason To- believe Bonaparte has
arrived. The fate of Russia is probably de-
cided; and it makes one smile to read The
English accounts relative to the embarkation
OF SEoedish troohs at gottcn6urgh, to make
a diversion in Napoleon's rear All the
men that Sweden could muster could not
make a stand in the fed for week against
the forces of France left in Germany to qui
CT small alarms. In truth, we have all along
believed that Bernadotte, the crown prince
OF Sweden, was amusing the British and
this, on his part, has been good policy, for
it has saved his own territories from The de-
predations of the English, and has been of
more real service to Bonaparte, by occupy
ing the attention of the cabinet of London
with feigned plans of expeditions, than if
Bernadotte had openly declared himself for
the French emperor. How long the Swe-
dish crown Prince will keep up this farce
it isimpossible to say; but we expect to see
him eventually assume the attitude of hos
tility to Great Britain. In the mean time he
will have been much benefited by the pre-
servation of tranquility and peace in his do
minions which, lIad he not appeared to CO.
incide with the British, they would have
disturbed by pretensions of restoring the de-
throned Gustavus. The late interview of
Bernadotte and the emperor of Russia, at
Abo, in Finland, was a precious scene Ut the
POLITICAL drama; who knows but Napoleon
may offer Bernadotte a superior crown in the
north of Europe?
