I t»!ogy, founded on mere aJTertioii, could do.
j It !» n I indeed prsfumptuoufly proposed as

po.Tible reason, which can result from extesdive
experience for believingthat a dofeof these pills,
taken once every two weeks during the preva

inrallible preventative ; and further, that in the
earlier ilages of those difeafts, their use will
very generally succeed in reftonng health and
frequently in cases esteemed desperate and bey
end the power of common remedies.
The operation of these pills isperfeflly mild
and may ke used with falety by persons in every
fituaticn and of every age.
They are excellently adapted te carry f> J
perfl'ious bile and prevent its morbid ftcretioue ;
to rellore and amend the appetite ; to produce
a tree perspiration and thereby prevent colds '
which are often of fatal consequence. A dose
never fails to remove a cold if taken on its firft

FORE I(N INTELLIGENCE,
Bj the tig T'jal, arrived at jVeiv.
Trk from Liverpool.
LONDON, May 10.
The publi attention is now drawn Irora
the military ipera'.ions in tie Genoese to
the fuccelsfi opening of the campaign on
the part of t'e F ench in Germany. It is
by viftories i Snabia that the French expedt
to coun!?rbJance and ptobabty to repair
their difalteß in Italy, and to draw off
General Melis from the western coall of the
Genoese. Vc (hall examine upon what
grounds ths expt&ation appears to be
| founded. It is nereffary, however, firft to
f< Jl.jw the cxeei of the French army of the
Rhine from their effc&ing the passage of
the Rhine to tHe defeat of the Aullrians,
and the capture of the important polt of
Slockach. Deffolle 3 dispatch leaves no
thing doubtful, involves nothing in obfeu
rity ; his details are simple, and his des
criptions clear ; —there does not appear to
be afly desire to exaggerate successes, nor
any wish to conical rcverfts. Hii accounts,
therefore, fesm» to be worthy of implicit
credit.
I The army of the Rlvne crossed that river
| in three great divisions [we do not include
Lecourbe's corps] and at three different
points. The ift division, under St. Suzanne
crossed at Kehl, and the 2d, under ,St.
Cy , at Brifach, on the 25th of April
The former, proceeding to Offenburg, en
ga t «*l a itrong corps of the Aultrians, and
<1 warm aiflion er.fued, which lasted eleven
hours. The second, directing its march to
Fribourg, entered that town with little re
finance. The success of this second divi-"
drawback,
r icn paved the way for Moreau's crofflng
:he Rhine at Basle with the third fiivifion on
the -27 th «f April. • His firft objeft was to
join and support St. Cyr, A part of his
corps forced the entrenched pallage of the
Alb, and another part drove the Auftrians
from Saint Blaize. Moreau anJ St. Cyr
then efTe&ed a jun£tiin and pafied the little
river called Wurtacft on the 30th of April,
the Auftrians retreating before them.
Meanwhile the firft division had not ad
vanced beyond Offenburg, aud the move
ments of that body were made only with a
view to keep the Auftiians in the valley of
Kenzig. The fecoad division therefore
made a (hew of afling in concert,, and con
nefting its operations with the firft. This
plan, which seems to be well concerted,
and ably executed, was attended with com
plete success. On a f :dden the firft divisi
on received orders to fall back by Kehl, to
recrofs the Rhise, proceed by forced march
es, return by the left bank of the Rhine,
to Brifack, a d hasten to Fribourg. These
cider's were eXrcuted with great celerity.
The Auftrians in the mean time appear f>
be ignorant of the real intentions of Mo
reau, and not to have known whether it was
hisdefign to divide his army and make fe :
parate attacks, cr to unite liis force and
make one grasd attack. 'J hey delayed
therefore concentrating their force and
were kept in the Kenzig. The principal
dependence however of Moreau was upon
Ltcourbe's force, which was not to cross
the Rhine till Moreau and St. Cyr's divisi
ons had pafled the V/aulack. Lecourbc's
corps then crofied with great rapidity be
tween Schaffhaufeu and Stein, joined the
commander in chiif, and enabled him 10
make a grand attack.
It was not till the Wutack had been
paflVd, and Lecourbe had pu(hed his force
dcrofs the Rhine, that the Auftrians ap
pear to have been well acquainted with Mo
reau's intention, and to bave seen that his
design was to turn Doaauef:hingen; 'i hey
tl,'en fell back to the lire of Stockah. De
f-lie's dispatches come down no later than
the 2d, when he states that the army was I
marching to give the Auftrians battle. On
the 4th this hat tie took place, a great vic
tory was gained, and the important poll of
Stockacb, together with all the banks of
the Lake of Gosjftance, were laken. The
tefult of this viftory will be, to compel the
Au rians to quit their pufition at Do
rauefchingen, where they coulj not be
attacked without great difficulty 3nd haz
ard.. i
m&w tf
I But what indue ce will this viftory or.
| the Rhine have upon the war i» Italy ? It
I enables Buonnpaite to draw the whole ar
my of relerve from Langres and Dijin,
from whence it could not fafely be removed
till it was known whither the French were
in fufficisnt force in Suabia to cope with the
Aullrians, aiid whether it would not be ne
ccfijiy to reinforce the aimv of the Rhine.
Accordingly we find that the army of leferve
is marching to Gen\s*a,where the head quar
ters are fixed, and to which place the chief
consul, and probably Carnot, are gone. One
division of the ar" y of reserve, amounting to
18,000 men, is already on its march by Ge
neva, & is to enter Italy by the Alps Buon
aparte's objeft Leins to be to make a pow
erful diveihun ill the rear of t!fe Aultrian
sirmy, anil to pxjur a drong' force into the
North of Piedmont. Should he be able to
make this diversion immediately, Gen. Me
la;. will probably not think it advisable to
perfiß in his deCpns againfl Genoa. But
every thiilcf depends upon this circumstance,
whether M..flen* is able to hold out for fame
wipeks. He has failed in his of r.--
edabljfhing his communication with Fuchet,
and Ims fallen.back upon Genoa, which is
ftaterl to be supplied with nearly two months
provisions. The I eights round the city are
occupied by French troops ; but MalTeiia it
is clear, is very closely prtffrd by the Auf
trians and is Imi r.vffcd'b'y daily attacks.
