LONDON, September 17. Yesterday we received by express the Paris jour- ' nalsto the 15th and tliofe of BruiTels '.o the 12th. By an article inserted in the latter, we are led to bclicye that Jourdari intended to assemble all hit dif ferent corps at Frankfort, when it is probable his < head-quatters are arrived by this time. Some of the letters pretend that Jourdan's retreat is only a 1 llratagem, calculated to draw the archduke-jnto a a more fatal snare than that into which he fell by i Jourdan's retreat across the Rhine at Coblentz, in i the beginning of the campaign. But we do not c . concur in this opinion. Jourdan's letters plainly ' shew that he has fuftaitrtd several severe defeats We jdo not think it improbable that either the arch duke will cut off Moreau's retreat, or Moreau will cut off the archduke's. Moreau's army now be- " comes much more an object of intereil than that of ' Jourdan. Fiom the banks of the Nab to Ramelf berg, the distance which Jourdan has retreated since the archduke crossed the Danube at Ingol ftadt, is full Ijo miles. THE PANTHEON, I j And.
