ViENNA, Sept. 16.
Letters, and particularly the official ac
counts from Wa.-lavf, of the 9th 111 ft.—
give the irioft ample detail* o'f the cir
ciimflances attending the retreat of the
Prussians on the night bjtween the sth and
6th.
Various causes contributed to this re
tix-it. i tic infurgcnts in Great Poland
not only cut off the fuppli -s of proviflons
and a\n nimiiionfrom the army ofhis Prus
sian Maj-fly, but also cut off the co utriunl
cation betweea thoilier parts of his do
ittinioas and his camp, in the environs of
which the Poles demoliftied all the streets,
attempted to entrap the Prufiians in a
number of Grand abat s, which the rub
bifli enabled them to form. _
Jn the pursuit, the Prulfians were mi
fsrably flaugMered ; the ftrdets through
vttjrtich th.-r piffled were covered with the
careafes or men and horses.
ike enraged Prussians fled like mad
dogs, deltroying m their way, »11 the
houses of the peasants ; so that the olaces
through which they paired are as dreary
as a dcfart.
Iu theirwarrh to Great Po'and, they
have but a rtfdan'choljr profpeA of pene- !
trating into the country, the insurgents
having: carried off all the magsxinw and
arfonais, and occupied all the ftrorfgplacat
in force, and ire firmly determiuedto <ap
pofc thern.
If the Warsaw papers do not over
charge their accounts, the King of Pruflia
it in great danger of being cut off with
hii whole army. ,
The iiifurgent* have also poffeUed them
felyes of Pazen, a city with a fortified
cast!.?, which is the centre of tke Govern
ment of the Province.
leYden, oa. 6.
The attack on Boris le Due is continued
—for some days the fire has been very
warm in that quarter, particularly, as we
are told from that place it felt, which was
endeavouring to prevent the beiieger.. from
erecting batteries on the fide of Fort D'Or
then, of whicn they have made themselves
mailers. In order to augment the forces
intended for the defence of Gueldres, we
learn that the garrisons are to be with
drawn from Htflft, and all the other places
of Dutch Flanders.
The surrender of Fort Crevecour hav
ing given room to complaints against Col.

The total want of discipline among the |
Brititr? troops has excited remonstrances
as doleful an universal, the commander in
chief has iflued. from his head quarters
at Groefbeck, a general order, dated Sep
tember, 1 , to recal the officers and soldiers
to their duty. It is hoped that this publi
cation and some examples of the just seve
rity which it announces, will at length re
press such disorder.
ROTTERDAM, oaober 7.
We were ytftenday much alarmed by
several letters from Emmerick and
Cleves, which contained the difagreea
ble intelligence, that the grand Austri
an army, under the orders of General
Clairfayt, had again been defeated by
the French,' and had been obliged to re
treat to Cologne. We hare likewise
received the disagreeable intelligence,
that the French have crofTed the Meufe,
between Venlo and Ruremonde, and o
bliged the duke of York to leave his
formfer poiit inn, and to fall back to
wards the province of Utrecht. This
much seems to be certain, that the Rri
tifh army has made a retiogade move
ment towards the province of Holland,
and that the head-quarters of the duke
of York are to be transferred to Kuy
lenburg. The 88th regiment of foot,
as well as the Heflian regiment of Kof
poth, which are at present in garrison
at Bergen-op-Zoom, have received or
ders to join the army ; but the 87th
regiment remains in that fortrefs, the
the present governor of which is Gene
ral Van dei Duin, brother to the gal
lant defender of Slays. The Ditfch
army has not yet changed its former po
sition ; arid it is to be reinforced by the
greatest part of the troops which have
hitherto remained in Dutch Flanders.
In the environs »f Breda and Bergen
op-Zoom, small parties are still fuffered
to desolate the country, but are tar too
infignificant to undertake any thing a
gainst those towns. Bois le Due con
tinues to deflroy the enemies batteries
near Orte and Deuteren, as soon as they'
are ere<sted ; and the Republicans have
fiot yet made the least imprefiion upon
that place. A lettir from Cologne, of
the third instant, contains the important
intelligence, that two members of the
French Convention, Bentabolc and La
valfeur, have lately arrived in the head
quatteis of General Clairfayt, and from
thence set out for Vienna. People, who
incline to flatter themfclvei with the
h.>pc> of a speedy condufion of peace,
give implicit credit to thin unexposed
piece of information J but, from a vari
ety of oircumflancegj which concur to
render it highly improbable, 1 doubt
the intelligenc . The French army <>f
the North, t« said, by means of the te-
lcgraphe, to have received intelligence
that, on the 25th ult. the important
fortrefs of Bellegarde, near I'crpignan,
had surrendered to the Republicans.

Yesterday a m:flenger brought dif
patchei to government, from his royal
highneft the duie of York, dated head
quarters at Grofbeck, 7th inft. ihe
The Dutch mal, due on Friday last
also arrived. The one due this inorr
ing haa-not yet come in.
The principd intelligence, brought
>y the raeffengcr and the mail, is, that
lie unfortunate gen. Clairfayt, who af
ter his defeat n the neighbourhood of
Liege, about four weeks ago, had taken
up so gooil a position on the banks of
the Roer, as to make him even wish
the enemy might assail ltfm, has been
again attacked by the enemy, and sus
tained a frefh defeat. The eccounts, so
far as the particulars are yet known,
crossed the Meufe and the Roer, and
attacked all the polls of the Aullrian
army, from Ruremond down to Juliers
and Dueren. These polls were defend
ed with great bravery and {kill; but
were at length carried by the masses
every wheic vidWioni. The Auftrians
in consequence were forced to ccofs the
Rhine, near Cologne* with the loss of
more than ;o'o men—some accounts
fay almotl twice that number, with a
great part of their artillery and bag
gage : so that the French are mailers
of almost the whole territories on the
weft fide of the Rhine, which may now
be coniidered as their eastern boundary.
Their next attempt will be againfl
the fortrefs of Luxembourg— Maef
tricht is alread/ completely inverted,
and all communieation with that place
may now be considered as entirely cut
©ff; for they have been transfeiing to
that quarter the gi eater part of the
force which they had in the neighbour
hood of Venlo and Ruremond. There
is some hope, however, that both Lux
embourg and Maeftricht will be able to
stand out against all their attempts.
The former can hardly lie besieged re
gularly, and can only be reduced by
famine; the latter is defended by a
garnfon of i \,GOO men, under the or
ders of gen. Kray, a very expeiienced
and brave officer.

NEW-YORK, December 6
It is remarkable that the events of
almost every day are encomiums on the
wisdom, prudence aid temperate policy >
of the Executive and his federal flip
porters. The President refilled 'he ei
forts of baft men to plunge us into r/.-.r
—his.policy is crowned with fuc,cds.
When it wih known that the Presi
dent had by his advicf, put a flop to
the projected settlement at Prefqu'lfle.
the antifederal papers denounced him
fur t.is interference— w;!c
acres, who knew nothing of his motives,
railed at tile man and hi* measures.—
Now it appears that the profec"ition i t
that bi'.fmefs frould cettainlyf halve in
volved us in war with the Six Nations*.
The I'rtlident knew thid—he had'the
bed means of knowledge-—he delayed—
fie treated—and the ifTue is a ktthd *
pface with the Indians,and the acqiiiie
ment of a full right and title to>the tcr*
ritory in difptiie, with the free privi
lege of pafiing thro'their country.
In this cafe as in the plan of negoti
ating with the English Court,' the poli
cv of the government has proved found
ahd just—-and every even has fervecl to
confotmd the rafhnefi, the paflion [and
the ignorance of our Jef thaJi and felj
nameapatriots. Yet at this ..moment*
opposition lifts its head and dermndg
that we put men into office who have
fought again,ft public measures, and to
put out of office the federal patriots, the
real patriots, who have preserved and
secured peace to thufe noisy unlederai
men, in spite of their teeth.
