Letters were received yesterday both
from Paris and the French coast. the for

preat Joy had been accustomed throughout
Ficardy. by the intelligence that Bonapare
had obtained a decisive victory over the NE

junction Of Butcher with the Austrian army |;
that Wittgenstein ha6 the command of the
allies, and that their loss consisted of Is, 900
men. and upwards of 100 pieces of artilie-

one communication, til Ar since his successes,
Bonaparte has determined, adopting tae

not to resume any negotiation until every
