Letter from General Count de Polfy. The Answer of Marshal Davoust to General General; I have submitted the etter you sent the Commandant of my ght ea vairy, to his Majesty's inspection. His Majesty has charged me to inform his Highness, the Archduke Palatine, by your favour, that he is ready to agree to the neutrality of the Hungan nation, if, upon his part, the Archdr will recall the Hunga rian troops, d'ontinue the levy in masse, and contin to supply Vienna with provisions; a, in fine, conclude a Convention betwea the Hungarian nation, and the Enper of the French, tending to maintain a Zood understanding between the two countries. I have been authorized to let any of ficer pass, whom his Royal Highness the Archduke may choose to send to my Sovereign, to treat with him upon these preli minaries. I am happy in the opportunity. of performing any good office.agreeable to your compatriots; and to secure the wellbeing and tranquillity of a people so estimable in many respects as the, Hungarian nation. I have the honour to be, M. Le Ge neral, your very humble servant, the Mar-` shal of the Empire, and one of the Colonels-General of the Guard of his Majesty. the Emperor and King. L. DAVOUST. Twenty-sixth Bulletin of the Grand Army, · General, his Royal Highness the Archduke Palatine, ut his character of supreme head of the military and civil departments in Hungary, has charged the undersigned to declare, that his Highness having esta blished a cordon of militia, as guards, upon the western frontier of this kingdom, supported by small detachments of cavalry, composed of invalids and recreits, solely with a view to check the progress of the marauders in the Austrian army, nothing hostile is to be apprehended from them; the said detachments being ordered to retire. whenever the French troops shall approach the frontier. Thus, in the circumstances in which these feeble detachments are placed, they can only be looked upon as piquets of observation. His Royal Highness has ordered the Heads of the Houses of Invalids, Seminaries, Pensioners, &c. No. to remain at their posts, persuaded that the Commandant of the French troops will not refuse them the protection necessary; and that he will also interest himself in the prevention of any excesses which might be committed by the French detachments that shall enter Hungary, especially as they will meet with no kind of opposition. In consequence of such a declaration, the Underpigned may have to treat with the Comman-by General Dupass's brigade of grenadiers, dant of the French troops, relative to several very interesting objects He also solicits a rendezvous, upon parole, in a vessel in the middle of the Danube. He accordingly waits an answer from the General; and has the honour to be, his very humble servant, LEOPOLD, Count PALFY, Major-General and Commandant at Presburg, Znaim, Nov. 13. Prince Murat having been informed that the Russian Gene-. rals, imediately after the signing of the Convention,, were marching with a part of their army towards Zuaim, and that from all appearances the other party were about to follow them and escape, caused it to be signified to them, that the Emperor had not ratified the Convention, and that he would of course attack them. In fact, Princė Murat, having made his dispositions, ad-. vanced towards the eneroy, and at、 tacked them on the 16th, at four o'clock, which brought on the battle of Tunters dorff, in which a part of the Russian army, composing the rear guard, was ronted, lust twelve pieces of cannon, one hundred baggage waggons, and two thousand prisoners two thousand more remained on the field of battle. Marshal Lannes attacked the enemy in front; and, while their left was turned Marshal Soult turned their right with Gen. Levasseur's brigade, consisting of the 3d and 13th regiments of the line belonging to Legrand's division. Gen. Walther charged the Russians with his brigade of dragoons, and took three hundred prisoners.-General Laplanche Mortier's brigade of grenadiers distinguished themselves. Were it not for the night, nothing would have escaped There were frequent attacks with the bayonet. Some battalions of Russian grenadiers shewed great intrepidity. Gen. Oudinot was wounded. His two aides-de-camp, Demangeot and Lamotte, were also wounded by his side. General Oudinot's wound will prevent him from serving for a fortnight. In the mean time, the Emperor wishing to give the grenadiers a mark of his esteem, has given the command of them to General Duroc.-The Emperor advanced his head-quarters to Zuaim the 17th, at three o'clock. The rear guard of the Russians were obliged to leave their sick at Znaim, where we found a considerable quantity of flour and oats. The Russians retreated towards Brunn, and our advanced guard pursued them half way, but the Emperor having learnt that the Emperor of Austria was there, wished to give a proof of his respect for that Prince, and halted the 18th.Annexed is the capitulation of the fort of Kuffstein, taken by the Bavarians. General Baraguay d'Hilliers made an incursion into Bohemia as far as Pilsen, and obliged the enemy to quit his position. He took some magazines, and fulfilled the object of his mission. The dismounted dragoons rapidly passed over the mountains, coyered with ice and fir-trees, which separate Bohemia from Bavaria.-It is not possible to form an idea of the horror which the Russians have created in Moravia. In retreating, they set fire to the finest villages, and they murder the peasantry. In consequence, the inhabitants feel easy when they find that they remove. They exclaim, Our ene*mies have left us. In speaking of them, they characterize them as barbarians who have brought ruin upon them. This does not apply to the officers, who are in general quite different from the soldiers. Many of them are of distinguished merit; but the soldiers are guided by a savage instinct unknown in European armies. When the it habitants of Austria, Moravia, and Bohe mia, are asked if they love their Emperor, they answer, We did love him, but how ! should we continue to love him? He has brought down the Russians.'It was reported at Vienna, that the Russians had de feated the French army, and that they were marching towards Vienna. A woman cried out in the streets, The French are beaten, and there are the Russians. The alarm was general fear and stupefaction prevailed in Vienna. Behold the result of the pernicibus councils of Cobentzel, Colloredo, and Lamberti, therefore, these men are detested by the nation, and the Emperor of Aus ria can never recover the confidence and Dhcounts. 4 love of his subjects, without sacrificing? them to the public hate, and one day, sooner or later, this must happen o TEA URMÁ *1 རྩྭ CONTINENTAL WAR, Austrian Official ** Accounts relative to the Operations of the War.

Vienna, Nov. 9.-The military occur.. rences, which have taken place since those already given in this paper, are as follow:Captain Scheibler Von Meerfeldt, brother of Field-Marshal Count Meerfeldt, who was stationed on the left bank of the Danube, with a party of about 100 horse, and 130in fantry, having remarked, in the night of the 4th of Nov. that the enemy occupied the left bank, without any military précautions, at tempted an attack upon the post of Mathau sen the same night, which was so successful, that the place was carried without the loss of a single man. The commandant, an offi cer of dragoons, and about 20 men, were killed in defending themselves in a house, which was forced; two commissaries, one general officer, one captain, one lieutenant, 18 dragoons of the 20th regiment, 23 sappeurs, and 5 privates of infantry, with 28 horses, were taken. The Emperor of the French, Marshal Prince Murat, and the whole garrison of Lintz, where the divisions of Davoust and Ney arrived on the 3d, were so much alarmed by this circumstance, that the garrison immediately retreated, and formed a line on the other side of the Da nube. It was now day-light, and the Em peror arrived on the bank with his staff, and must have seen the prisoners, carried off. The captain of our party has been promoted to the rank of major-The rear-guard of the Imperial and Russian troops were at tacked near Remmelbach, in the afternoon of the 5th, by the advanced guard, of the enemy, consisting of 10,000 men, who were followed, according to the statement of the prisoners, by a body of 30,000 men. The Russians, notwithstanding the superior nun bers of the enemy, charged them with the bayonet, and compelled them to fall back but General Kutusow found himself 'under the necessity of retreating to Moelk, in con sequence of being outflanked, on his right and left, by a numerous column of the enemy. Brunn, Nov. 15.Our Court Gazette contains the following official account of the occurrences of the war. A courier who are rived on the 14th of November to his Ma❤ jesty the Emperor and King, from the com mander in chief of the Russian troops, Count Kutusow, brought the joyful news of a com plete victory which has been obtained over 945): DECEMBER 14, 1805,-Operations of the French Army of Italy. After a few hours rest at Montebello, the army pursued the enemy towards Vicenza: the gates of the city had been se refusal was returned. A sentiment of humanity had influenced the general in chief to summon it; the passage must be forced, and the cannons and howitzers! directed against the gates, and unfortunately against the city itself; we occupied ourselves in this work at the point of day. The precipita tion with which the retreat of the enemy was conducted obliged them to abandon 1000 wounded, and to leave some remains of magazines in our possession. In the course of the day we had made 800 prisoners. The Austrians were retreating by the road of Bassauo; the army pursued them there, and constantly galled, their rear At the part where the road branches off to Bassano, and to Treviso, they proceeded towards this lat ter city, after burning behind them the bridge over the Terent, near the Paki When we arrived at the village of St. Pierre, in Gu, we found it was occupied by a corps of troops, which was vigorously chargeda The village was carried after an action which gained us six hundred more prisoners and one piece of artillery.-We then marched towards the Brenta. The advanced guard arrived at the moment when the enemy was attempting to destroy the bridge; a brisk cannonade was commenced from botli banks of the river, which was continued till night: the enemy's division under the command of | OPERATIONS OF THE FRENCH ARMY OF Marshal Mortier, between Stein and Weiss: ITALY.—Continued from p. 798.

Its rear was pressed by the enemy, till it arrived at Mantern, and the command-cured; it was summoned to surrender; a ing general resolved on the night, between the 9th and 10th, to pass to the left bank of the Danube, and to burn the bridge. This was the more necessary, as we had received certain information that the enemy had reestablished the bridge of Lintz, and that already one division of their arnty was on this bank of the Danube. On the afternoon of the 10th of Nov. the enemy approached our fore posts in the neighbourhood of Dierstein. drove them back with a superiority of force along the Danube, from Weisskirchen to Stein, and on the approach of night our army could with difficulty maintain themselves on the Stein. It was determined, therefore, to attack the enemy on the morning of the 11th at Weisskirchen, in three columus, preserving that order as much as possible in a country covered with vineyards. At Weisskirchen, he had assembled a number of vessels, to cut off our retreat. The hap piest results crowned this determined enterprise, executed with as much prudence as steadiness and valour. The enemy was defeated, and those parts of his division who could not save themselves in some of the ships were either killed or taken prisoners. The number of the former cannot be ascertained with exactness, but the following is a list of the prisoners: the Chef de Brigade, Grain D'Orge, 3 colonels, dient-colonel, 36 superior icers, and 2000 mein, among whom were the 4th regiment of dragoons. Five cannons were also taken: Marshal Mortier, who commanded the enemy's divie siony is missing. He is thought to be among the dead. The loss of the Russian troops is in proportion inconsiderable. It consists for the most part of wounded, among whom are a general and several officers.But this brilliant and victorious day cost so excellent al manhis life. Lieutenant Field-Marshal Schmide, who had been given as Quarter Master General to the Russian army, died the death of a hero, after he, as General Kus tusow remarks, had contributed to the victo ry and had attacked the enemy both in flank and rear. The loss of this man, who had served 40 years, and during the last war acquired a distinguished reputation, will be deeply felt by the Sovereigns both of Russia and Austria, who know well to appreciate neric. His name is his own monument ! svo beninde mosd and mo. The army continued on the right bank. At four in the morning I ordered many regiments of cavalry, with the light troops. mounted behind them, fo ford the river, whilst the bridge was repairing. The army soon after crossed it, and we arrived at Cit tadella, time enough to cut off the rear-posts of the enemy. At five in the evening we entered Castelfranco, and our chasseurs, by pushing forward, were already in possession of Salvatrunda and Albaredo. The general in chief felt the necessity of allowing a few hours to the wants of the army. On our march from Montebello, we had made 1800 prisoners. The division of the right has directed itself against Padua, which it occupies this day; the division of the left has proceeded by the Sette Communi against Bassano, which it will occupy to morrow. Sixth Official Bulletin of the Army of Italy. with only slight opposition; from the Flave to the Tagliamento, they perceived, flying before them, some corps of cavalry, which appeared to observe them, but who retreated in such a manner as to avoid any action.—It was at the Tagliamento that the enemy appeared inclined to wait for us. They had assembled, on the left bank, six regiments of cavalry and four regiments of infantry; and their firm front led us to suppose, that they were determined to obstinately dispute the passage of the river with us. The commander in chief at first only intended to reconnoitre their position with the cavalry. The division of chasseurs commanded by Gen. D'Espagne, that of dragoons and cuirasseurs, under the orders of Generals Mermet and Pully, were posted on the river; while the divisions of Duhesme and Seras marched by St. Vito; and those of Generals Molitor and Gardanne, took the direction of Valvasone. General D'Espagne had received orders to push forward his patroles. On the 12th November, a squadron, which he had ordered to cross the river, was charged by a regiment of Austrian cavalry; it bravely supported the attack, and gave time to General D'Espagne to advance upon the enemy, who were soon repulsed, and obliged to fly. Our. artillery, nevertheless, took its position; the cannonade began from both sides of the river; it was very brisk, and continued during the whole day. The enemy had placed thirty pieces of cannon behind a bank; we had only eighteen; and our artillery preserved their usual superiority. The divisions of infantry arrived in the evening. commander in chief, satisfied with the advantages he had obtained, and which secured to him others, did not think proper to effect the passage of the river. He contented himself with making his dispositions for the next day, convinced that he could then achieve something more decisive. The divisions took their appointed positions at St. Vito and Valvasone; it was at those two points that they were to pass the river, turn and cut off the enemy. Prince Charles, no doubt, was apprehensive of this intention; he did not think proper to remain that day in his position, and at midnight he began to retreat by the road to Palma Nuova.-The army passed the Tagliamento with regret, that there was no enemy to engage; and it was then that it becane better acquainted with the result of the preceding day. The left bank of the river was covered with men and horses, which were destroyed by the effect of our artillery.-The army continues is march; the hope of meeting and enga ging the enemy increases their impatient cdour, They are acquainted with all that The has been done by the grand army; and the desire to second its movement, and to meet the confidence of the Emperor, agitates and continually spurs them on. The advanced guard carries off some prisoners every day, which will increase the number of those we have already made. The bridges over the Piave and Tagliamento are repairing. Seventh Bulletin of the Army of Italy. Head-Quarters, Gorizia, 17th Nov.The enemy, after having abandoned to us the banks of the Tagliamento, retreated to wards Palma Nuova. They did not attempt to defend that town, which they might have done with advantage; and we were not able to come up with their last posts, before we had advanced some miles beyond it. Some trifling skirmishes took place, in which we took a few prisoners.-On the 15th, the army was formed in two columns, and advanced towards the Isonzo. The advanced guard, under the orders of General Espagne, entered Gradisca, two hours before nightfall, after a feeble resistance on the part of the Austrians. The horse chasseurs then ascended the right bank of the river, to get to Gorozia, and Seras's division establi-hed itself at the same time at Sagrado, on the left bank. On the next day, the divisions of Molitor, Gardanne, and Partouneaux, marched by the right bank of the Isonzo, with an intention of passing the river below Gorizia; but the bridge of boats not being arrived, they could not pass the river at that point.--The divisions of Seras and Duhesme marched, on their side, towards Rubia and Savogna. Their advanced posts followed close at the heels of the enemy. There was an engagement, at the close of which the enemy's cavalry fell back in the greatest dis order; their artillery escaped on account of the night; we pushed them under the walls of Gorizia. The Commander in Chief made his dispositions for a general attack on the morning of the 17th, but the Austrians would not risk it. They availed themselves of the night to hasten their retreat. General Espagne pursues them with the cavalry and light infantry; he has orders to drive them before him to Laybach.-The army has taken a position beyond the Isonzo; three hundred resh prisoners have been just brought in, and every minute we see others arrive, The magazines established at Udina and Palma Nuova have fallen into our handsThe Commander in Chief praises the con tinued activity of the army; they support, joyfully and courageously, the fatigue and privations inseparable from so rapid a march.

This wish lay in the principles of his government as well as in his heart. Without any, even the most distant project of enlarging his states, or of procuring an indemnification for the sacrifices he had made at Luneville and Ratisbon, to the tranquility of Europe, he desired nothing but that the Emperor of France, actuated by a similar spirit of enlightened and humane policy, should return within the li mits prescribed by the treaty of Luneville.
