Capy of a Report of tbe Operations of tbt
right wing of the arrpy of Italy, to tbe Gen.
in Chief Urune, by Lieutenant General Du
pont dated 2stb of September.
" The body of troops commanded by ge
neral Pino, having evacuated the line ot the
Rubicon, and gone to Bologna, tlie armed
Brigands in Ferrara«nd Tufcany thought |
the moment a favourable one to throw theni
fetves into Romania, and commit there
enery fort of excess without (yjpofition.—
They invad'd the greatest par: of that ter-.
ritory, and advanced as far as Imola, cut
ting down the trees of liberty, turning the
magifhates of the people out ot office, and
exerciCng every where the most abomniable
pillage.
" Jn order to furpriae them in the raidft
of their incursions, I gave charge to general
Monnier -to fend to FerJi the Cifalpint
second half brigade, with a b#dy of light
troops from the 14th Hut Tars and 4th regi
ment of ChafL-urs. The general of divifiou
Pino, who had the command of that expe
dition, arrived the 4th complementary day
at Fxenja, after biv'fyg purftied the brigands,
who had already taken pofTeflion of Imola.
They divided themselves into several bodies,
ene going to Ferrara, another to Ravenna,
and a third following the road of Arezz#.
The general formed his troops into three
columns in order to overtake them. The
brigands, or their way to Ferraro, were
attacked near Lugo by oue of the columns
under the Command of Ferrand, chief of
brigade. Terror took pofleflioij of them,
and few made their escape.
"On the sth complementary day the
French column deflir.ed for Ravmina found
there the brigands ready to make refinance.
Their defence was (hort. The Chadeurs of
the 4th regiment, commanded by the chieF
of brigade Yam, entered, and every man
found with arms in his hands was extermina
ted. •
" The. fame day a detachment J of grena
diers for rounded the brigands, who were
making their escape towards the Appenines.
A Gmilaf state awaited the third body, and
the few who remained hid themselves in the
mountains.
u At the moment when Bologna was
threatened with an iuvafion, the national >
guards adUd with greatfirmnels; they for
med a column ready to co-operate with the

During the firlt dtys of the 2d Decade of
Vendemaire, information was received, that
a p-rion ot the name of Demerville, retiding
at No 24. Rue des Moulins, had dittributed
a roniider.ible fun> of money ; and that some
well known villains frequented his houle.
Positive information was received, that
on the 1 ith inftant,eleven of thfefe villains
were to throw themlelves upon the Full
when coming out of the Opera.
The Police then took the mod adtive mea
sures to watch them.—On the 18th two of
them (one by the name of Cerachi) were ar
retted in the lobby of the Opera ; they were
armed withcutl dies. Demerville and some
of his accomplices were arretted in the night
—they are in pursuit of the others ; Dem
erville and Cerachi have both confefled.
Thole wretched miscreants are for the mo ft

BELFAST, Odlober 17
Copy of a letter from a House of the firft re
fpeflaliility in the Corn Trad«, Elbing, dated
nth September, to their correspondents ia
Glasgow.
" We have hitherto experienced such favora
ble harvest weather, as we have fcldom (een in
this country; and, notwithstanding the back
wardness of the crops of grain in summer, every
thin«j is now in fafety in this quarter Whfat
cinnot be deemed an abundant crop in this
countjy, but we hav« reason to expedt the qual
- for the most part will prove much better and
heavier than for several years past; and ac
counts from Austrian Poland especially, are
equally favourable of quality as of quantity.—
Barley and cat* are every where in theft pro
viuces abundant, and of such good quality in
general as to afford very flattering hopes of the
existing restraints on their exp nation being
removed very soon Pease are also much more
abundant and of better quality, than was ex
. peAed. With regard, to the new imports on
wheat which amount to about too p per lali,
we have reason to conclude, it will be entirely
taken off or greatly modified in the course of the
winter if not foouy."
DUBLIN, Oft. 13.
The twelvepenny loaf this is increased
14 ounces, the aflize being four pounds one
quarter, it will in all probability exceed five
pounds next week.
Application has, we hear, been made to
Government, for permilTion to relume the
malting of beer and barley, in confrquence
ot the happy fall in every denomination ol
corn.
We are enabled to ftaie the following as
a fatt, which has powerfully tended to law
er the great price of flour in our market.
The fealbnable supply of rice at 2S. 2d. per
(lone, which the induflrious and necessitous
are favoured with, through the unceasing
bounty and benevolence of Marquis Corn
wallis to fuhltantially relieve the poor work-,
ing clafles of this metropolis, and which, we
are warranted to publilh, averages, half of
Dublin, oidinaiy coufumption of Sour, as
appears by the weekly returns as follows ;
The ciiy of Dublin usually consumed 3400
bags of flour per week, and the recent con
sumption of the riee above mentioned, is re
turned to about 2500 bags a week—in con
ftquence of this cheap supply there has been
a drawback to that amount to bring down
the price of flour, which flour moreover
at market must ha»e felt a more material
depreciation from the demand for it being
less, and the monopolist finding it nrcefl'ary
in his own defence to fell, as the counterac
tion of foreflalling, must oblige him to argue
that the abundant produce of the harvell
will soon cause a plenty of fair prices fuffi
cient to make his (lock in hand a means of
loss, instead of ill-gotten gairs to him.
