A bHlletin from Milan, of the 10th, states
tietin the action of thu 14th near Forli, be-
tween the Austrian & Neapolitan armies. the
latter were totally defeated, with the loss of
5000 killed and 1000 prisoners: Murat's
camp equipage was taken. The Neapolitans
retired towards Ancona, where it should seem
That Murat thinks 20 rally his army and ven
ture new battle.
Should he lose, he would have no other re-
source than, if possible, to embark as the
mounta'neers of ArezZo, who have been ILL
treated by his troops, are all in arms to in
tercept his retreat. Murat is sad TO have
twice asked an armistice, and to have prom
Ised, as soon rs peace should be made with
hun, &c JOIN the coalition, but all his offers
have been rejected.
When general Nugent advanced towards
Florence, the Seap0iits,Is in that city desired

BY the Paris papers of Friday last, which
are received, we find that the Emperor still
continued in that capital, and that all was
tranqrl in France. The same quiet seems
TO prevail on the frontiers. though the war

Your husband is very brave man, in the
field of battle. but he is more cowardiy than a
woman or monk when not in presence of the
enemy. He has no moral courage. He has
