ral vigorous charges has taken about 100 prisoners. All their cavalry have taken the great road. A considerable part of their infantry proceeds through the valley of Idria to gain that of Oberleybach. Five companies of light horse pursue them in that direction, while our advanced posts reconnoitre as far as the intrenchments of Pervald, and direct themselves towards Leybach. On the approach of the division of Seras to Trieste, the Austrians evacuated that place, where they left three hundred wounded. A corps pursued them on the road to Leybach, and took fifty men. Two regiments of dragoons, supported by the infantry, advanced by our left on the Chiusa de Pletz, which was guarded by two regiments of infantry, Strasoldo and Deligne, with some cavalry. All the posts were abandoned on the arrival of our troops. The General of Brigade Lacour, who commanded them, received orders to penetrate to Villach, and to try to open a communication with the grand army, the movements of which had doubtless occasioned the retreat of the enemy, who appeared afraid of being surrounded. A detachment was also sent against Ponteba Veneta, where the enemy, who were in force, did not venture to wait for us. In these different movements we have made about 400 prisoners. The general in chief left towards Padua the corps of troops from Naples. They have joined with the Corsican Legion, and the 2d Italian regiment have joined one of the divisions of the army. Lieutenant General St. Cyr, who commands these united forces, observes Chiozza and Brendolo. These troops are prepared to fall on the Russians and the English, if they dare to attempt the descent with which they threaten the coast of Italy.

Letter from the General of Division Locchi, to the Minister of War, duted Legnano, Νου. 25.

I hasten to inform your Excellency, that a body of the enemy, under the cornmand of Prince Rohan, was drawn up near Bassano. The General marched from Stra with the reserve of the army, which consisted of a Polish corps under General Peyri, two French regiments under General Regnier, four pieces of artillery, and the 5th Italian regiments, General Regnier marched to Piombino, whereby he prevented the march of the Austrians, who were inclining towards Venice, by the road' of Maestie. Yesterday, the 24th, he was attacked by break of day, and although he made the most vigorous defence, he was thrice obliged to leave the field. The PoTish In

tro, under the direction of their own General, before day-break, towards Castel Franco. As the General remarked, when half way from Campo St. Pietro, that the Division of General Regnier drew back, he commanded General Gravinsky to attack the enemy in the rear. This attack was made with the greatest vigour, and the enemy retreated towards Castel Franco, with the loss of 150 prisoners, and three pieces of can. non. General Regnier now made use of the same manoeuvre, and made 2000 prisoners. The rest of the hostile column retired towards Villa Franca, where 3000 Austrians, who were blockaded by the Polish Infantry, laid down their arms to Colonel Gravinsky; a corps of 700 cuirassiers surrendered to Lieutenant-Colonel Klopinslay. Eight thousand prisoners, 700 horses, 12 pieces of cannon, 6 stand of colours, and 10 standards, were the result of the victory. Prince Rohan, three Colonels, threeLieutenant-Colonels, and six Majors, are amongst the prisoners. Out of 600 killed, there are two Colonels, two Lieutenant-Colonels, and four Majors. There are also 600 wounded.

Letter addressed by Marshal Ney to the Estates of the Tyrol, previous to his Beparture from Saltzburgh.

You will take a particular charge in the superintendence of the affairs of the mines of Schewetz, and their dependencies at Hall, Brixlegg, Acherain, &c. upon condition that you give an account of the same, when it may be required. You must be careful, that none of the raw or manufactured materials be taken out of the magazines: private property shall be duly restored to the owners. It is of great importance, that the support of between three and four thousand families, which depends upon those establishments, should be secured to them, by a wise and vigilant administration.

Proclamation addressed by General Ney to the Tyrolese, previous to his departure.

Tyroleans, The French army, acting in conformity with the dispositions of his Majesty the Emperor Napoleon, is about to leave your country. He has ordered that the posts and the commands in the same should be committed to our allies, the Bavarian troops. I admonish the constituted authorities, and particularly the Clergy, to second the representations made to the pos ple by the Archduke John, viz. that they submit themselves to the laws of the vicLors; and that they neither bear arms against

us, nor our Allles.Upon my departure, I shall recommend the strictest discipline: to General Siebein, Commandant of the Bavarian troops; I expect the Tyroleans will observe the same conduct towards them as to ourselves, in which I have reason to praise the zeal you have manifested in supplying our troops with provisions. I hope, when I am far distant, I shall hear that you have followed my advice, and that you will turn a deaf ear to the faithless representations of the evil-minded, who spread themselves over the country to preach rebellion: should any disturbances occur, the Bavarian troops will know how to punish the authors of them; and, if necessary. my corps of the army, or that of Marshal Augereau, will be at hand, to restore order, and chastize the guilty. Tyroleans, you must bear the calamities of a war, in which nothing is to be got, with patience. A permanent, and pro-bably, a speedy peace, will restore tranquillity to all nations-Tyroleans, you have witnessed my confidence; I reckon upon your loyalty. (Signed)

Ninth Bulletin of the Army of Italy, dated

Head-quarters at Goritza, Nov. 27. The general in chief has been informed by several reports, and particularly by a letter from General Vial, the Ambassador of his Imperial Majesty, at Berne, that a corps of the Austrian army, which was cut off in consequence of the manœuvres of the grand army, intended to descend by the Tyrolean mountains of Italy. He calculated that this -column would endeavour either to cross the line of the army to unite itself with the troops in the Venetian territory, or to operate, by the way of Feltro and Belluno, a junction with the wreck of Prince Charles's army at Leybach. But whatever direction the enemy might take, the situation of the army at Isonzo was such, that a sufficient force could be detached to intercept them. The advanced guard, however, continued its march towards Leybach. A column, consisting of 7000 infantry, and 1,200 cavalry, commanded by the Prince de Rohan, advanced on the 24th to Bassano, and might easily have taken the detachment of 1,500 men, which formed the garrison. It proseeded to Castel Franco. As soon as Gen. St. Cyr was informed of this, he was convinced that the enemy meant to cross our line, of the force of which they doubtless were ignorant. He therefore made dispositions for giving them a proper reception. The general in chief, who had foreseen every thing, remained on his part, perfectly tranquil; but that nothing might be left to the

chance of events, he took measures for bringing up, by forced marches on the Piave, the division of grenadiers commanded by General Partouneaux, and other corps. The grenadiers were directed to ascend the Piave by Il Bosco del Mantello, and to turn the position of Bassano. The division of Gardanne, which was directed at the same time on Venzone, was destined to reinforce the detachments sent to the two Pontebas, and to cut off all retreat from the enemy. The general in chief left the rest of the troops on the Isonzo, under the command of General Duhesme, and proceeded himself to the Piave to superintend the movements he had directed.-General St. Cyr manoeuvred to reconnoitre the enemy, and to stop him. General Regnier, at Navale, had orders to march on the 25th, at day-break, to Castel Franco. The enemy arrived in the evening, and sensible of the difficulty of his position, anticipated the attack. He fell violently on Regnier's division, which received him with the greatest vigour and soon repulsed him. The enemy, however, returned several times to the charge, but were always received with the same firmness. Meanwhile General St. Cyr made a movement with the Polish regiment, and turned the enemy. The route was then completed all the way to Castel Franco, where our troops arrived as soon as the Austrians. All who were not killed or taken on the field of battle asked to capitulate. 6000 infantry and 100 cavalry remained in our power. This number was greater than we opposed to them in effective combat, but they saw, from the dispositions which were made, that their destruction was inevitable. The Prince de Rohan, several colonels, and a number of officers, are among the prisoners. Six standards, 12 pieces of cannon, and immense baggage, are also the result of this victory. We have only to regret the loss of 100 killed and wounded, and we have recovered the prisoners taken from us at Bassano. A corps of Croats, which it is supposed formed part of the colunan, is expected to be found in the defiles of thre mountains. It is not likely that it can escape us. The advanced guard makes each day new prisoners. The roads from Idra to Leybach are covered with horses, waggons, and thousands of badets.

PRUSSIA-Proclamation issted by the King of Prussia relative to Contributions levied by the French Army in Bavaria, dated Berlin, Nov. 2, 1805.

Whereas the French army in Bavaria has demanded a contribution and forage from several classes of men in Franconia, we find it necessary to give this particular notice to every subject and inhabitant of this District, not to give any forage or contribution, and consequently not to pay any attention to similar orders from the Proprietors of Domains, or any other persons; but, on the contrary, to give immediate intelligence of such proceedings to the respective Justices or Magistrates, who are to acquaint the Magistrate of Anspach of it without delay. This notice is also applicable to those places

which are under some peculiar jurisdiction of foreign Sovereigns, beside those of his Prussian Majesty, as those places have the same privileges, and are included in the neutral territories. His Majesty's Special Order. HARDENBERG,

CONTINENTAL WARNarrative of the Events of the Campaign, taken from the Moniteur of the 18th of Noreet and said to be a Letter dated from Vienna on the 11th of November. (Concluded from p. 927.)

Count Giulay, dispatched on the 7th to the Emperor Napoleon, to propose an ar mistice, received for auswer, that his Majesty, being at the head of two hundred thousand men, was not in a situation to treat with a flying army; he, however, gave Count Giulay a letter for the Emperor of Austria, in which, it is hoped, he has made proposals for a peace.-Returning from the head-quarters, near St. Hippolite, Count Giulay met the deputation of the states of Austria, going from Vienna to the Emperor Napoleon, to solicit leave for a capitulation.

This deputation was composed of the Prince Sinzendorf, the Bishop of Seidenstetten, and M. Wohhleben, Burgomaster of the city, with General Bourgeois. of the engi neers. They shewed him the articles for which they were to negotiate; their contents struck him with surprise.-He gave them to understand, they were not going to treat as conquerors, but as the conquered'; . and that they should carefully avoid an thing which might irritate the Emperor of the French. He then made such correc tions as he thought necessary, and advised the deputation not to go beyond these conditions. The deputation then dispatched Prince Sinzendort to Vienna, to demand a renewal of their full powers, while Count Giulay interposed with the Emperor Napo leon for an armistice of three days, to give them time to make the necessary arrangement; but this could only be granted for forty-eight hours.-General Kienmayer left Vienna, for Olatz, on the 9th, at night. As he had served under General Meerfeldt, and as it was reported that the latter had marched into Styria, to attack the colun detached by Bernadotte to annoy the Archduke Charles, and compel him to retreat, it was thought that General Kienmayer had very important communications to make to the Emperor respecting the Archduke's si tuation, which could scarcely be supposed to be consoling, notwithstanding all the bravery this prince had displayed.-Prince Amsberg, commandant of the guard at the palaes

was appointed commandant of the city of Vienna ad interim; and PrinceJohm of Leichtenstein, commandant of the reserve in Austria and Bohemia, then stationed upon the left shore of the Danube; Count Corbna, Vice-President of the Mines and the Mint, was appointed commissary-general, having for adjuncts, the deputies of state, and the aulic counsellors, Count Korinsky and Baron Killmansegg. The Emperor authorised the magistrates of Vienna to circulate paper to the amount of a million of florins, in bills of 12 and 24 francs, to be called in after the war. -A French squadron has arrived at Ancona. This was announced to the Governor of Fiume by the Austrian Consul; the former hastened to communicate this intelligence to the Hungarian Chancery.-A report was spread, from the house of the Russian ambassador, that, notwithstanding the convention of neutrality, Russian troops had arrived at Naples.-When the Emperor of Austria set out for Olmutz, on the 7th, he caused his departure to be announced to the diplomatic corps, and invited them to follow him, as horses were provided for their journey, and lodgings, as commodious as possible, were to be fitted for their reception at Olmutz.-Upon this occasion, M. Loppel, the Charge d'Affaires of Hesse Cassel, was forgotten; but, on the 9th, to repair the oversight, an official letter was sent him from the Chancery, in his Majesty's name. Count Cobentzei also was charged with a verbal message to him; and, as the Count even pressed his departure, he set out on the same day.-When Count Cobentzel notified the Emperor's departure to the ministers of Baden and Wurtemberg, he informed them, that all official communications having ceased, they might receive their passports whenever they chose to demand them.

tion could not possibly produce worse measures than have already resulted from the conduct recommended to the Emperor by the council of war, after all their deliberations. In this situation, would not a peace of any kind be preferable to the present state of things?-On the 8th, the Emperor granted an extraordinary vacation of three months to the aulic council of the empire; and the chancery of state has been transferred to OlThe Austrian council of state is dissolved, and M. De Stahl is the only member that has followed his Majesty. He travelled with the cabinet minister.
