Our private advices from Hamburgh of tbe sih inft. informs us, (hat Moreau is at length but, very fiowly, and ev. try day fighting. His retreat is less oUring to the ineffedual attempts tfhich ,he has made against the very strong position of the Aultrian* before Ulm, than h s having been forced *t the desire of Buonaparte, conveyed to him by C rnot, to detach <»B,oca men, in order to cover the lesser cantons, which are much threatened by the Auftrians, and particularly to support the movements of Berthier, who is palling into Italy by the Valain, at the head of more than 25, co men from Switzerland to the army of re serve." General Kray, whose army is every day reinforced, follows him, and will no doubt pre is upon him so clofelv as to em barrass him greatly in his retreat. Tbe death of SUWARROW has at length bee 11 officially announced to our gov ernment. It happened May lft at Peterf burgh. The forces which failed in different troop fliips from Portsmouth on the 13d and'from Plymourh on the :4th of May, under sealed orders, appear to have been destined for Quiberon Bay, where they were disembark ed at Carnac, under the orders of General Maitlnnd ; and the next day they attacked and carried Fort Penthievre. The prefeut expedition to Quiberon is not undertaken, like the former one in June 1795, with.a view of fomenting in infur jeftion in the Western- Departments of France, but to keep the peninsula as a Point d'Appui, and harbour for our (hips of war, and thereby to harrafs more tffettually the trade of the enemy, particularly in provi sions, between the western coast and Brest; The French, have demanded the f allowing contributions in Suabia From the Land 1 grave of Furftenburg.so,ooo florins ; from the town of Ueberlingen, 30,000 ; Mem mingen, 60,3 -O ; Biberach 45,000; Bu chorn, 30,000 ; Raven/burg, 30 00® ; Pful Salmaofwieli'ioo 000, Sr. Blaife, 200,000; the abbey of Buchau 50,000 ; Althaufen, 50,000 s Sch»ffcnritd, 25,000 j abbey of WeifTenau, 25,000 ; Wangen, 50,000.

Lord Nelson had previously been landed at Syracuse, in consequence of a severe illuefs. By Mr, Arthur Pagett's servant, who ar lived on Sunday from Palermo, Govern ment also received difpatcbes from Lord Keith, of a very recent date-and of consider able importance. Hit Lordship's difpatch «s after dating the furrerlder of the citadel of Savona on the 13th of May, in conse quence of famine, mention, that on the 19th of the fame month the Magistrates of Genoa requeited permiflion of Gen. Ott to fend a flag of truce to Gen. Melas, which was granted. The nature of the message was not known, but it is supposed to con tain an offer to surrender up the city on certain conditions. *lo* Mr. jackfon's dispatches from Tunis con firms the report of the march of Gen. Melas towards Piedmont for the purpose oi at tacking the army ol Reserve, before it re ceives additional reinforcements. It is stated that the whole of Buonapart's army did not exceed 19,000 men on the 15th of May. Moreau is certainly drawing off a part of his army from the Danube, to sup port the projefts ot the Chief Consul in Italy. June 9. The movements of General Melas jgsinft the ldt wing of the army cf Italy have been attended with complete fuccels, and he has by a very masterly stroke diniinifhed the number of his enemies. The struggle that is to decide the fate of Genoa, will probably take place in the plains of Piedment, where the Auftrians cavalry are encamped in very considerable force. The Biitifh fleet, under the com mand of Lord Keith, has rendered the molt ufeful services to the common cause ? but MaiTena seems determined to hold out to the last extremity. LONDON, June 8. ' The result of the different affairs of the advanced Polls Gnce the arrival of the ar my in its present position, has uniformly been to the advantage of the Audrain*. No very material alteration has place in the ILte of continental affairs fmce our lafl number. The operations of Gene ral Kray appear to.have been diredled with great judgment, and notwithflanding the impetuosity of the French in their advances, Imperalifls have fuccecded in firming the torrent of invalion, and opposing an effedlual barrier to the further inroads of the enemy. It is evident that the victories claimed by the French in their official dispatches could not have been as decisive as they have been reprcfented, fmce they have b.een compelled to linger so very long in the career of victory before the walls of'Ulm.

The left wing under St. Suzanne hadfuftained a severe attack from _ the AuftriacS. under General Sztarray. butrepulfed them with loss, and maintained his pnfitions. Some accounts Rate that .a battle is expedrd ; others that General Kray intends 'o fall back after throwing a garrison ifito Ulrh. In the mean time the divificn of this army, under General Vandamme purfucs its fue cefsful career. The important post of Feld kirch has been taken by it, and a greac quantity of valuable (lores. This place is the key of the Grifon country, and the latter rtuift soon fall into the power of the Republicans. The Austrian corotnander ia •the Voralburg cut off from the main a my found it necessary to rr treat into the Tyrol. > The suspension of aftive opevations of the French army of the Rhine, may have arisen from the arrangements.to ,co perate with the attempts for the new mvafioo of Italy. The divi'fion of General Lorge has been detached from the right wing under Lecour'se. These troops reinforced by others from-different parts of Switzerland, are intended to pass the St- Gothard, and to form a junflion with the army ol Re serve. June 1.
