LONDON, May
Among' the extraordinary circtfmftances
of the present War, flonc is rnofe striking
than a cairparifwn of the fituatiori of thihgs
now with what it was a few weeks ago.
We weK then quite unconcerned at the state
of the enemy 's llett--o«r'anx,icty Wai aloriedi
refted to the situ itmn of the fermtcs of A"f
tria and France ; and we were not without
appreheation that tjhe arms of the latter
would, at lea It in the outset of the campaign,
invariable defeat of the republican troops ;
and by the accounts received yesterday, it
will be Feen, t'.at the army of Italy has been
COMPLETELY DESTROYED. The
Auftrunj seemed inspired with the fame eit
thuftafm wfcich diftinguilhed the French ar
mies at the beginning of the contcft, while
1 the latter at lafl, probably convinced thxt
they are fighting, not for liberty, but for
the existence of five dffpots, who have ruin
ed their country, have loft all their energy.
In this slate of things, it is not furplif
ing that the diredtory should use every art
and pretence to influence their armies, and
to excite, if possible, that spirit once
existed, but which great fuffering*} without
any prolpe& of recomprnce, seem entirely
to have subdued. The death of.Bonnier and
Roberjot is seized upon eagerly for the pur
pose. The Archduke Charles, without the
slightest ground, is charged with the mur
der of these men, and in the niidft of defeat,
the direttory vent the vengeance of despair
againfl the armies of thair enemies. But
General Suwarrow is r.ot to be intimidated
by such threats ; and the horrors of such a
war as they proclaim, are likely to fall ten
fold upon their heads.

When our troops entered Milan, on the
aßth ult. a numberless crowd of people came
to meet them, and received them such loud
demcnftrations.of joy, as could be heard at
a great diftanee. A great number of the
nobility of both sexes, and the members of
the former Magistracy, came on the road
which our troops took to enter the city, and
teflified their joy. As soon as the general
•fCavalry, Melas, reached Milan, he sent
word to the officer commanding the garri
son in the citidel, who wanted to firt on the
ci|y, that if be fired but a single shot, he
would give orders,not to cut in pieces the gar
rifon, but to hang them, because they would
hav« attempted to eketcife a barbaroui apd
useless vengeance. The French Comman
dant only wanted to fire upou the city to
revenge himfelf of the inhabitants, who ch
prefled their joy at the entrance of the Au
flriins. In other itfpe&s, the battle of the
27th of April, will be forever memorable in
the history of the present war, the French
having rendered their poGtions almost im
pregnable by the strong batteries and re
doubts they had railed. The quantity of
ammunition and military fto/es of evety kind,
which the French left behind, in their camp
and at Milan, is immense ; and the cou
rier who arrived -declares, that it would re
quire weeks to take an inventory of them.
When the courier v left Milan on the firft of
"May, they allured him that Moreau's defea
ted army had taken,different roads, on its
retreat The inhabitants of the open
country hadfeen thole troops on the roads of
Piacenza, Arena, and Pavia, and even on
those of Vigevano and Novaro. The Ijege
of Pefehiera has been lossewhat retarded,
owing to tfee terrible rains, but now the
heary ordnance is arrived before that place.

Field M»rffial Suv,arrow wrote to the
Emperor rcfpr&ing the viftories of the 26
and 27th ult. " That he had always admir
ed the bravery of the Auflrian troops, and
the knowledge of their officers, but that
what he observed on those two days, fully
convinced him that nothing in the world was
superior to Austrian bravery.
After < taking Milan, Field Marftwl Su

upon a secret expedition.
The French Prineels is gone from Vienna

The French army of Italy w not less re
duced by itis repeated losses in tattle, than by
the desertion of the foreign troo;« which
were incorporated with it. Ihe Ligurians,

were called) quitted their colours in wholt
battalions. The Piedmontefe regiment, cal

CONSTANTINOPLE, April 19.
Buonaparte's defeat by Dfchezar iach*,
near St. John.d'Acrfj is fully confirmed.
Tince.
He certainly advanced some time ago with ]
3000 Frenchmen, and as many Aiabs and |
Copts, whom he had brought from Fjfypt,
into Palestine. The badly defende-d polfs ot
Gaza and JjfFa could not stop his progrnls.
jhe came down the coast to St. tl'Acre,
the ancient Pi olemais and detached a small
column against the passes about Nabloufe
(Sichem) to watch the movemfcnts of Dfche
zarOglu, Governor of Jerutalem, who coulc
have fallen upon his rear. St. John d' Ac re
is so weak a place that no refinance was ex
pe&ed--Buc haw great was fheaftoniftiment
of the French to hear their furomons ani'wer
ed by *.he play of a well directed heavy artil
lery ; and llill greater wuft have heen their
confirmation, when they were informed that
it wss their own ordinance! For thirteen
tranfportsof theirs, that'were to bring their
heavy artillrry, military stores, vid troops
from Damietta to Palelline, were partly cap
tured, partly funk, partly difperied by the
fleet of Commodore Sir Sidney Smith, and
this naval commander had reached St. John
d'Acre. just in good time. Here the French
luff* red no inconfije ruble lols, and were forc
ed to retreat. Meanwhile Dlchetar Oglu
had actually occupied th* p:ifl'. s in their rear,
and gained some advantage near Nabloufe.
This deprived them of the hops of capturing
the caravangoiii'g from Damascus to Mecca,
and they had to Druggie with a variety of
embarrassments, rel'peftiug their own situa
tion. Seventeen Turkilh fail are 11 aw going
with troops, and w:iny military stores, to
re-enforce Dfcheear Pacha. Two English
men of war guard the mouth of the Arabian
gulph. In general, Buonaparte is in the
most critical iituation with his army. The
Grand Vizir, Juffuff Pacha, is preparing
with all the forces of the Turkilh Empire,
which will join him every where, 011 his
march from Ccnflantinople to Affa, to fruf
trate completely Buonaparte's enterprises by
a decisive blow, sulcfs it be flruck even be
