A letter frpm Couftantinople of the sth

He comes from Acrel and brings dispatches
from Guzzan Achmed Pacha, generaliflimo
ot the troops of Syria and EgypV, of which
the following is an extract :
" Buonaparte, whom God Confound, has
written me a letter, in which he advises me,
that he had learned I was nval ing great pre
parations for war, and that he clelired to
to know if they were intended against
him ; —if for that he wortkl come to
fearcji for men in my own country, and
treat me as I deserved. 1 arifwered him
ai became me, that these preparations were
entirely destined against mifcrsants ; that he
migjit without giving himfelf the trouble,
wait for me at Cairo, where 1 hoped to be
shortly, and where G »d would deside be
tween him and the Grand Seignior, the edge
of whole sword, with the help of the Al

Frenchin that country are dated " tlie'firft

The difcuflions relative to neutral nations,

been continued in the council of five hund
red : there is every appearance that it will
finidiby granting a part of what is demand
ed. The Danish minister awaits the IL-cjuel
of this discussion, in order to resume the ne
gociations. The government appears to
feel the necessity at the approach of a war,
perhaps general, of (hewing a certain degree
of condescension towards neutral powers. A
proceeding which has lately taken place (hews
how they are aftuated by this imprefiion ; it
is the fending an American Minister to re-<

of Marine who mod strenuously advtfes tkis

Certain information has been received, that
the French army is retreating. The Aus
trian army, under the command of a young
Austrian hero, is advancing, with rapid speed
in two columns. The grand army, com
manded by the Archduke in person, has al
ready arrived near Pfullendorf, while 15,000

strongly potted, and his troops defend thtm

ExtraS of a letter from Puojftn, on the
Frontiers of the Tyrol, dated Marth 19,
*' War has commenced in acountry which
never has been before, in the memory of
man, the theatre of war, and even in countries
{eldora visited by travellers. The French
have penetrated by the rocks of Lower En
gadine into the valfies of Montafun and
Selnau. They are already mailers of the
several pafies and bridges of the Inn. They
mean* to penetrate as far as Infpruck, Thi*
bold movement on the part of the Republi
cans has given much anxiety to the Auftri
ans. Orders have already Wen given to the
compauits.of marksfmen,, and th< corps of
m'litia of Lech thai, to advance with all pof
ftbie dispatch to the banks of the Inn. We
are aflured that the French forces amount
to 10,0 o pien. Cannon been fe,nt off

When the Executive Directory ..of the

an apprefled people,inftru&ed me to call up
on the Austrian commander to evacuate the
Grifon territory with his trpops, you did not
expert that you fho.i'ld be called upon to
fight; but you were compelled to it by the
reliftance with which you were opposed.
The paffiiges of the RhiDe, forced march
es, difficult roads, privation of every fort, ex
treme cold, entrenchments, redoubts, .forts,
all you have surmounted, and in five days
you have made 10, coo prisoners, taken 40
pieces of cannon, a considerable quantity of
ordnance stores.and five ilandards. Ido'not
mention the other 20 standards from the
Grifon companies in the enemy's pay
f'hey were deluded peasants, and not formi

portions in the Voralberg • you occupy all
the Grifpn country, and you have restored
that people to then.selves and to liberty.
