■SAVANNAH,
Saturday Evening, Sept. 16, 1809.
The mail cf last night has brought accounts
contradicting all the rumours of battlrs which
have been propagated for near a month past,
and turned the tables completely. Instead of
the French, it is now said that the Austrians
are defeated. According to these, a battle
commenced on the banks of the Danube, on
the 2d of July, which lasted four days success
ively, and terminated in the loss of60,000 men
to the Austrians. The archduke Charles,' with
p.,-i milted |xwt, and a certificate thereof return- j only 40,000 i f hisarmy, had fled into Bohemia; of Mr. Jefferson be cod- mothy Pickering

proceeding to a permitted poit, la»di>-g her ; been agrfeed upon; and Bonaparte had poi-
ctqgo,and procuring a certificaieteatisfie* the ! scssed himself of ali the strong holds in Au-
conditions of those bonds ; as *tbe United
S’a'es courts have often decided, in caves for
sailors* wages, kc. that a voyage was, from the
loading a cargo at one port,- until it was dis-
j . charged at another. But the conditions of the
- bonds required under the June law- are, that the
ves cl shall riot proceed to, or trade with a pro-
. hiiiiied po<t (without any limitation.-) So that
*. landing. a cargo is not necessary. Our vessels
may sail from the United States, deliver their
cargoes on board other ships, or proceed-to
pc. mined ports, and there land their cargoes,
and •eiuro home, or proceed to other permit*
'.ted ports, without violating the bonds ; but the
- •'|a weasels cannot proceed >o ;« prohibited port,,
doting the continuance of the iron-intercourse
- law, without violating the bond required at .the
custom-house under the -June law. Should any
. vessel that cleared for a-port in the United

Salisbury, who was a most accurate statesman,

w, t liout applying to i he ambassador on t he spot

prime minister pf Spain, in such a manner as
d ew front him a confession that theie never was

’riot satisfied with this, and judging that the am-
b tssadoi was only made, a tool of by his court,

Last evening arrived at this poit the brig In

Denmark, which place he left bn the' 36th July,
ive have been favored with a file of Copenha
gen papers down to th e I Sib July, from which
we shall give translations to-morrow
Captain Mczick informs that he had read the
French bulletin' giving an account of a very se
vere engagement between the emperor Napo
leon and the archduke Charles. The French
Crossed rbe Da ube on three bridges which
were pi eviousiy completed, and commenced the
engagement on the second cf Juty. The battle
continued four days successively. The arch
duke Charles was badly wounded, and fled with
40.000 men into Bohemia, leaving 60.000 Ads-
trians on the field of battle. The French stated
their own loss to be com paratively trifling. On
tlie-8th July, an armistice was concluded for
four weeks, and Bonaparte was in possession of
all the strongholds of Austria. It was not known
where the emperor of Austria was. The
Russians occupied a greati part ot Gallacia, but
bad not formed a junction with the French.
A few English ships of war with 300 troops-
on board, took possession of Cuxhaven the
same day the battle commenced between the
French and Austrians, and as there was no
French troops in the neighborhood, were still,
in possession, from Whence they carried on a
great smuggling trade withthe continent.
The captain had-not heard any thing of the
grand English expedition sailing, or its destina
tion.

and with a small force are easily resisted:
Out of 100 American vessels, so called, ar-

The Inca Sidled from this port immediately
after the raising of the embargo and arrived at

can (in justice arid good faith) affect an officer
elected under the constitution as it formerly
was, (during good behavior) yet, as it seems to
be so considered, and a» other gentlemen have
