WAR OPERATIONS.

/ LONDON Sept. 3.-We have at length re.
cetved the French official accounts of the
resumption of bostilities but certainly a
less clear one we never read They give a
short and meagre description of Bonaparte's
operations in Bohemia, where he had gain
ed some partial successes but before.he had
time to state either the number of his pri
soners' or The cannon or eagles, he is called
to arother quarter where he finds the enc
my on the Lower Elbe, getting in his rear
and where he finds it necessary to repair.
ana quit the advantages which he boasts of
having obtained elsewhere The French
account then says " at this moment gath
Auguse 1T appears that his Majesty, the
Emperor Napoleon, is manmuvrng, the al
he'd armies on the Elbe." Phc previous
part OF the French Bulletin stated Bona
parte to have been on the Bobr; he is now
by this very despatch, man9uvring on the
Elbe, 90 miles in the rear of the Bobr.
From the whole of this preliminary opera
ton it is evident, that about the 18th or roth
OF August, the French made general at,
tempt to penetrate into Bohemia, by diffe
rent routs and it is also evident that this at
tempt has failed

22d that he had been roughly handled in a
charge of cavalry mas de from. the heights
before that place; and that his line Of march
which was towards Schwerin, was contin.

DEFEAT OF THE FRENCH IN
.-e-a. GERMANY.
EDINBURGH. sentember Il

A gentleman who arrived in this city from
York, mas communicated to us the follow
ing important information.
"'fwo officers with dispatches from Lord
Cathcart, reached York on Wednesday
who stated that the Crown Prince had en-
gagements on the 22d and Esd ult and de-
ieated the left wing of the French, with
the loss Of % pieces Of cannon and 1900
prisoners, and was still engaged on the 24th,
when the dispatches were sent OFF,
On Wednesday morning two Heligolana
mails were received in London, bringing
various reports Of the operations of the
Crown Prince, which, connected with the
above intelligence, leave no doubt that the
enemy has met with severe check. The
intelligence received by government on this
subject, from the governor of Heligoland
is understood to be included in the follow
ing demi-official bulletin
|" Several engagements had taken place
between the Elbe and the coast. Davoust
is said to be wounded and Vandamme
rnortally The Danish auxiiiares had suf-
ferel severely, and the enemy's advanced
troops were said to be surrounded by the
allies in Schwerin: Denmark had decar-

A letter from Yarmouth SAYS, the follow.
ing account is taken Uerbdtin from one OF
the passengers who arrived in the packet
from Heligoland:
"That a'severe action took place on the
eth and 25th ult between the Crown
Prince of Sweden and the French under
the Duke of Reggie, near Wittenburg -
that during the action o division of Saxon
troops, about 5000 deserted to the allies -
that the French were beaten with great
slaughter, and with the loss of 6 or Z gene
rails and that the fortress of Wittenburg
was taken by storm, after the battle, by the
allies that about the 22d of August bat
tie was fought between the Austrians and
French, on the frontiers of Bohemia, in
which the Austrians gained a temporary
advantage but the French army being af
forwards Joined by Bonaparte, the contest
was renewed, and the Austrians, after
hard fought battle, retreated about three
leagues-The action was not considered
decisive. In the action the Prince of Eek.
muhl is said to have been killed.

HELIGOLAND. September Q

The Russians and Swedes have beaten
the French and Danes on the cath most
completely The Prince of Eckmuhl was
saved by party Of Danish hussars, in a
most miraculous manner Vandammez is
killed /; only IL Danes escaped; the whole
regiment except those was cut to pieces:
It's said that the French and Danish loss
together amount to several thousands. the
allies but triiling. The Russians,are within
three miles of Hamburg. AL the works
OF the tortifcations are stopped, and little
resistance expected to be made The gov
ernor has called upon the inhabitants to aid
in defence Of the town An engagement
according to an account Just reached usl
has taken place in front o. Dresden, but no
results are stated. On this account we are
easy, for had the French succeeded to any
extent, we should have heard the news
through trumpets from every quarter.
From the Edinburgh Correspondent of
the 18th September we extract the follow
ing editorial remark. which as the chain
OF dates is broken, throws some light Oh
the intelligence received
& The plan of the allies seems to have
been, to leave Bonaparte in Bohemia, and
attack with their grand army the centre of
the enemy's at Dresden, while the Crown
Prince engaged the left wing under Oudi-
not, which proceeded farther down the Elbe,
to Wttenburg, with the intention of meet
ing Davoust, at Berlin. The enemy, it is
clearly perceived, had spread their forces
IN various directions from Dresden. under
confident belief, that Bonaparte, who had
advanced with the right wing would be able
to Keep the main force of the allies in his
front, while he continued TO receive rein
forcemenss from the head quarters whose
pace II would seem were to be supplied by
tne army under Augereau, advancing from
Franconia"

an expected push on 3sriin, and that his
Royal Highness concentrated the comb.aed
army between that capital and Spandau--
Nearly 10000 combattonts had arrived in
that position at the date of the Bulletin.
The Courier Of September I'd, states the
desertioh Of Gen. Jnmini took place on the
18th August and that he communicated i'm
portant information relative to the DISPOSE
ton and movements of the French forces.
The Communications from Heligoland
bring us the order Of the day issued by the
Prince Of Schwartzenburg, on the declara-
ton Of war by Austria against France. This
document may be considered as a kind Of
Arrangement OF the declaration itself, setting
forth the grounds on which Austria has been
induced to 90 TO war. All the endeavors
of the Emperor to restore peace have prov
ed abortive, and nothing could bring the
mind of the French government to the prin-
ciples Of moderation. Austria. therefore,
found herself obliged to declarefor the cause
of justice and order, not singly but in con
junction with Russia, Prussia, Sweden, Eng
land, and Spain. All designs against the
integrity of the French empire are disclaim
ed, and the objects of this great confederaey
are stated to extend no farther than the con
fning of the power of France within her
own borders
We copy the following observations on
the French accounts of the battles before
Dresden from a London evening paper
"The last French papers add nothing on
the subject OF the affairs near Dresden
our opinions on that head are unchanged
the French were beaten--takeni in the TANKS
and in the rear by the combined armies,
and driven back into Dresden with immense
loss. The plains of Plauen, where the bat
ties of the Goth and 27th were fought, are
situated 9 or 3 miles to the southaarG of
Dresden, Pima, Freyberg, and peterswade,
which Count Darius letter admits to have
been occupied by the enemy, are also to the
southwark, or to speak in military terms, in
the rear of Bonaparte's position at Dresden
On the Goth at 3 O'Clock in the afternoon,
10000 men were seen deploying in the di-
rection of P!aueh-they mast have advanc-
ed from the points which have been Just
mentioned in the form of a crescent Bona
parte or Maret for him, says he defeated,
them on the 26th and 9th; but who re-
NAMED master of the ground on both DAYS ?
Not the French surely--for they returned to-
Dresden on the night of the 26th--Nay, they
came back at night on the 9Th also, avow-
eddy leaving the allies in possession of the
field; for we are told that they were at lib
erty to retreat or remain where they were
1t appears evident that on the Goth the allies
were assailants /; and on the eth the French
were. This is Bonaparte's policy, and it,
was masterly enough, for he warded oil. the
blow which was aimed at Dresden for ario-
Their day Out of Dresden he must 90 at
last, for the Allies, now that Austria has
joined, are swarming in his rear"
