COLOGN, August 7. c
General Bournonville, commander in chief of a
the army of the north, arrived here this morning, d
at eleven o'clock. He was received by the dif- o
charge of 20 pieces of artillery. The general of a
division Cuftelvert, with his flaft officers, and the n
city' commandant, received him at the gate of Ei- -
gelßeri, from whence (hey conducted him to the li
great square, where he reviewed the garrison. He tl
will set out this afternoon for Bohn, to continue his
visit to the whole extent of the line. c
August 9. a
The latest advices from the upper rhine, dated f(
the 4th inltant, announce that the French army has c
made anolKfer general movement. The division of ti
General Labordt, which eroffed the Rhine at Hun- v
ingen, aftpr having taken poffefiion of Constance f
. and Stockach, left a body of troops in the rear to p
facilitate its jundtion with the army of the Alps, p
and proceeded up the right bank of the Danube, o
This manoeuvre, which was intended to oblige e
the Anftrians to recrofs that river rapidly, produ.- h
eed in a great measure the effedt : on the lit and a
2d in!t. the Imperialists retreated from the posts f
they occupied in the county of Rechtfberg on the t
Steig, and from those near Geiflengen, to proceed r
to different points of the Danube. In eonfequence v
of these movements the while of General Moreau's ti
army advanced ; and at the departure of these ad- I
vices was advanced rapidly towards th; Danifbe, b
which river the Auftrians had not as yet entirely F
eroffed. General St. Cyr, commandant of the cen- c
tre of the army of the Rhine and Moselle,. had
fhifted his head quarters from Goeppingan to Doni- a
dorff near Heidenheim. General Defaix, who b
commands the left wing was at Getnund ; and the t
commander io chief had jutt sfta-blifhed his head- t
quarters'at Schondorff. t
The army ot the Sambre and Meufe, and that f
« of General Wartenfleben, opposite to it, have been r
. perfectly tranquil since the affair of the 27th ulti- t
mo. According to the latest advices, the Austrian f
General had his head-quarters at Zeil ; he ha{) ex
tended his wings, as if he meant to resume offen- v
five operations. Since the flight of the balloon, £
nothing has passed either at Mentis or at Ehrenbreit- '■
ften. a
On the 7th, after the eighteen hoflaf/s had been 1
carried off, another ediift was published concerning 3
the payment of the contributions, and to avert the t
Yiolcut-meafures which threatfn our city, the Se- I
nate has jutt acquainted the inhabitants, that, in a
cafe they were not immediately assisted in the belt t
poflible manner, the deftrudtion of this city and its li
conflitution, within a few days, would be unavoida
ble. Every inhabitant was again fammoned, with- c
in hours, to deliver in allcafh and plate 1'
that could be found, to save our city. a
Much as our city has till now refufej to accept 1
the offer of the Landgrave of Hesse Caffel to ad- 1"
vance the money necessary for paying the contribu- f
tions ~by the French, it now finds itfelf v
under the nccefficy of accepting that offer—a_ step f
which may be produdtive of (Jilagreeable confc- a
quences. Ytlterday negoeiations were opened for, c
that purpose by our Senate with the Hessian Mini- f
fter, Baron de Waitz. To day that painifter, ac a
compnr.ied by the French Ambassador, Citizen Ri- *
val, departed from hence.
It is now publicly said that owr city will foonbe under C
Hessian government.
SUABIA, August 5. r
On the 4th inltank the French entered Ulm, from
whence the imperialists hid removed their magazines
yi'evious to their arrival. The imperialists are retreat * '
irig to Bavaria, and will for the prefeilt take their po- 1
fition behind the Lech. It is fafd, that archdiikeCharles, <

RATISBON, August 18. '
We have not yet learnt what success the deputa
tion of the diet to tve French generals has met
with. All we know of it is, that the French -je
lieral of division, Klein, lias assured the Pruflian
counsellor of' legation, count Bernftorf, that the
deputies will he fuccefsful in their negoeiations.—
Should they rot be able to obtain a complete neu
trality for the diet and our city, the deputies arc
iriftrudted to negociate for passports for the ambassa
dors on their way to and from this city, for they-
Archives and fervaiits, as well the security of
the inhabitants and their property.
A visit from that part of th* French army wljich
if stationed in Franconia, is not expedted here ; but
that part or the Fiench army which is closely pur
king the archduke Charles, we may expedt. The
former part of the French army seems to be march
ing to Bohemia. It is said, that from 1410 20,000
men will be encamped iu the'neighbourhood of our
city
To day, three battalions of troops of Hesse-

f LONDON, August 19. bs
The intelligence which we have this day to re- °f
1 lite, is of fj awful and tremendous a nature, that tU!
t we cannot, without (jonfiderable agitation and pain, H?
t discharge our duty in communicating it to the pub- ,^,' n
lis. It will excite wortder evea in this miraculous teP
campaign, and may perhaps produce some negledt oct
f and alarm in a nation that seems familiarifed with thf
, defeat, and reconciled to disgrace. la the course tin
- ofgone day, we have "learnt the tidings of the rout tla !
f and dispersion of mighty armies, of the sbjedt hji», jq
e miliaiion and impending ruin of the greateff powers rie j
- —in one word, of events which seem to us to be w i
e little less than a pfelude to the total deltrudtion of alfi
e the established fyftcm of Europe. of
s It was natural and reasonable that the imperial ma
coart should confidcr Italy as the quarter in which
olone the French could be vulnerable. An army ; j o
j scattered over an extensive country, and occupied in
3 containing a re.tlefs and mutinous people, seemed fuf
f to present many favourable points of attack. To
- wards Italy, therefore, the efforts of Austriaaap t 0
e pear to have been diredtecfc 'It was even thought te
3 politic to weaken the army of the archduke, for the
, purpose of reinforcing Wuimfer, and a large body
. of men were detached for that objedt. By these , ftt
e extraordinary exertions, general Wurmfer found
.. himfelf at the head of a .gallant and well difqiplined Gr
j army of 60,000 men ; and that excellent officer
s seems to have thought himfelf in a condition to raifc '
e the tiege of Mantua, and perhaps effeiS the recove- v j'
d ry of Lortibardy. His firft fuceeffes corresponded j, s
c with the hopes that have been formed from so for- d«i
s midable a foice. On the 29th ult. he drove the
- French from the post of Salo,. situated an the left w '
bank of the Lago di Garda, and shortly after ex- ul
y pelled them from Brefciaj the capital of the Bref- ' a
- ciano. Tel
j These successes, however, proved as short lived j m
. as' they were trivial. The army of Buonaparte had
0 been reinforced by-25,000 men from La Vendse — lig
e that unfortunate celebrated country, through which un
the combined powers so long hoped to give a mor- t ' v
tal wound to the French republic, but whieh has in
t fadt proved the grave of the royalifls, and the belt
n nursery of republican soldiers. He withdrew his as
. troops from Verona, and concentrating his whole w<
n force, he marched without delay against Wurrsfer. Pc-
I'he dates and particulars of the astonishing events N
. which followed, are so imjjerfedt, that we can only
, give a very general them. It appears, c °
however, that Buonaparte attacked the Auftrians
at Lonado and Salo ; and at the firft of these places trt
n made 600 prisoners, and killed 2000 men. On the th<
t 3d instant, be agaia attacked them in the whole ex- cit
e tent of their line—at Lonado, Caftiglionne, and ' n
- Montechiaro, with such fiiccefs, a3 to have killed m
n and wounded 2000, taken 30 field-pieces, and made
t 6000 prisoners, among whom were two gcneial of
-8 ficers. 5^
What the particulars »f the events whieh fuc
. ceeded this great vidtory were, we have not yet
e learnt ; but Xuch has been their astonishing and j
awful result, that in five days (probably from the
t lit to the 6th inft) twelve thousand Auftrians have Tl
. been made prisoners, fix thonfand have been killed,
. seventy pieces of cannon have been laken, and their p
f whole army have been completely routed and dif- Ti
j> perfrH Icj this short pxriod uas becu nfmiliil tcd
- a numerous, brave and disciplined araiy, command
r, ed by one of the mod celebratedgeneralsof his age ; .
. for the formation of wHiieh such extraordinary efforts j- r
and faCrifices were made ; which was the sole bul m
I- walk of Germany on the Italian frontier, and in w
which were depojited the last, faint hopes of the 111
r Court of Vienna.
At a calmer momeot we might express our afto
nifhmeht at these ftupendousi and almost incredible t ;,
events, and pay a due tribute of admiration to the vi
. flcfll and valor lyliicfi have wrought such prodigies ;
j. but astonishment and admiration are loft in feelings
i, of a more awful kivrd, in the relation of vidtories,
o which threaten nothing less than the univetfal fubju- j;i
b gation of Europe. The French are now the un» et
difpntcd masters of Italy, from the Alps to the R
0 Straits of Messina j and whether They parcel it in
to dependant republics, or (till for a while, fuffer its 8
wretched princes, trembling in their palaces, to
retain a precarious and nominal authority—it is in ri
le truth and iubltance a province of France. . o
:- If turn our eyes towards Germany, the prof- tl
pedt appears, if poflible, still more clouded and
et gloomy. The Diet of the Empire, assembled at a
>e Ratisbon 011 the 30th ult. in.the lift agony of dif- e
:h may and consternation, passed a decree (whish may t ,
:h perhaps, be one of the last adts ©f power they will n
ie ever exercise I) for imploring the/French to grant e
a peace to the Germanic Body. They accused the P
Emperor of having protradted Hostilities ; and his ll
minister recriminated, by afctibing all the ca'amities
1- of the war to their inactivity and pulillanimity ; ,
et accusations which may both in part be true —But
e- on what a miserable and desperate footing they must (
in negociate, tnay be judged from the circumstance,
ie that they found it necessary to fend a deputation of
- their own number to the French generals, fuppli
u- eating them to grant protedtion to their persons and r
re archives | and that they have been compelled to
a- employ the mediation ot the King of Prussia for
:ir the fame humiliating objedt. It is a gross abuse of j
of language, to dignify by the name of negociation,
the igHominious teims which a conqueror may ehufe
:h to didtate to those who are reduced to implore his
ut protedtion.
ir- Thus is ihis proud Affemblv, the rcprefenrative of the
i, e greatest .number ut princes and ftatei that were ever united
1 in a political affectation, obliged to depend for its per- -|
1 fonal fafety upon the precarious mercy •'nd accidental J
~ > ° moderation of those who may command the armies of
ur France. I his wretched humiliation is not alcue deferr
ing of notice as an awefuf and memorable example of
"e- the vicififitude of human affairs ; he must be a ihallow
in politician indeed, who docs not perceive that fuels 1
H fiances of humiliation are likely to be productive of the
' molt terrible conferences. A vi<£lory over the dignity
of the established governments of Europe is as import
ant to the French democracy as a vidlory over their ar
mies. The one diffufes their opinions is much as the
other extends their territories. When the people ef e
•very country fee ail that has been the object of their ve- 1
neration for so many ages, degraded and laid proflrate j
'y> in the dull ; their reverence will be changed into conr
ur tempt ; All the sentiments which produce obedience to
to government will be e\tingnifhed ; and the bands of po

of the eflabllfued system of Europe, ij thus rapidly a ]
t tumbling to pieces, the fttuation of the Emp;ror ap- j ( j

' occasion, f'orfaken him. Hungary has jpeen.deaf to

We have received authentic intelligence that ,
Klebei lias entered Ratifbon ; but the particulars of his
s negociation (for so it-will still be ridiculouHy called !) a '
J with the captive diet, have uot reached us. We have so
f alio the bell realon to believe that some wretched terms of
of capitulation, which, by the covirtefy of Europe, c g
| may be called a Treaty of Peace, have ere this been m;
j granted by the French to the Emperor at Munich.
The term Negociation may be applied tofuch traufac- .
tiom, but negociation implies at least some equality.
1 There is no negotiation between a conqueror and a

Whether the vi&orious Republicans will condescend ef
. to listen to the fuppiicaflons of Mr. Pitt, and vouehfafe t e
t te include him in the conditions which they may grant j )e
e to the govcrmnems ot Europe on their surrender, we ! / ,
know not j and arpidfl the draggling sentiments of
y flame, sorrow, terror and indignation, which at this ce
£ moment fill our minjls, we had almo'd said we care not. a ''
J The probability feeinp rather against a peace with to
J Great-Britain. The Emperor is too much overwhelm- ta
r td by hi. own calamities and danger*, and too urgent- co
c W prelTed by tlie necessity of an immediate accommo
dition, to be solicitous about the intereds of an ally,
whose delirucflive frieiHlfhip has been the source of all 1
® h ! misfortunes : and in the race of suppliant ambaffa- j
- dors to l'aris, Mr. Hammond seems likely to be outrun. tu
e The dctellation of the Republicans against a minister o'
: t wiote incendiary intrigues they believe to have llirred 21
uj: all their foreign and domestic enemies, is still unex- zc
hajfted ; and they can have little inducement to grant ej
temis, however humiliating, to a power wht>m they ,
m:y injure materially, and which can scarcely, in any 0
" importjnt interest, injure them. m
d We are perfeflly sensible that some part of the intel- th
- ligence may b.e called ineoiifident with that earned and ca
(j uniform delire of Peace, which we have exprefied since
the commencement of this, unfortunate conted. But
n there will nor be the real inconGdency in the
, condudl of the warmest enemies of the War, if they
reprobate vith equal warmth such conditions of peace
8 as Mr, Pitt is likely to obtain. The contrary esndufl l '
e would in fail be grossly inconfiflent. His ignominious pi
■. Peace will be the natural fruit of his abominable War. pi
s No man can detest the one, without abhorring the o- o,

( commentary on the nature of the War. Its principles
' atid effetfls will he there written in characters that can- -'
