« In the affair of the 10<b, which took place
at Romanoff the geo. Roznicckl, commanding
the light cavalry of the four cavalry corps, has
lost 600 men killed, wounded, or made prison

Gen. Rozniccki states, that the bodies of count

colonels Adrenow and Jesowayski, have been
recognized on the field of battle. -
“ The prince of Schwartzenberg had his

“ On the 14-c, gen. Baron Pajol, who was a 1
Ighonmeii, sent capt. Vandois with 50 cavalry
to Kbaloui. This detachment, took there a
pack of 200 carriages, belonging to Bagration*!
corps, and made prisoners 6 officers, 200 can-
nonieis, 300 men attached to the train, and
800 fine artillery horses. Capt. Vandois find
ing himself 15 leagues distent from the army,
did not think it practicable to carry off thfs
convoy, and burnt it> He has brought with
him the horses and the prisoners.
. On the 15th,prince of Echmulh was at Ig:

took possession of immense magazines of flour,
oats, and clothing, //e afterwards passed the
Dorsthenes, and proceeded in pursuit of a con
voy of artillery.: 1
“ Smolcusk is in alarm. Every thing is re
moving to Moscow. An officer, sent by >he
emperor to cause the evacuation of the maga
zines of Orcha, was quite astonished to find die
place in possession of the Ft ench. This officer
was taken with the dispatches.
“ While Bagration was briskly..pursi*cd in
Kia rctrea*, anticipated in his projects, separat

commanded by -he emperor Alexander retreat

On be 15 h, the duke of Reggio advanced
upon Dunaberg burnt the fine barracks which
he enemy h d constructed there, took a plan of
the wmks, burnt some magazines, and took 50
priscneis. Afer this diversion on the right, he
marched on Dionia.
On the 15-h, the enemy, who was concentrat
ed in his entrenched camp of Dtisas, .to the
.number of from ICO to 120,000 trier, being in
formed that our light cavalry did not keep a
strict *vatch, brew over a bridge sent across
5000 i. fantry, and 5000 cavalry, attacked gen
eral Sebastian*!, unexpectedly, d;ove him back
one league, and caused him a loss of IDO kilted,
wounded and prisoners, among whom were a
captain and a sub-lieutenant of the 11th chas
seurs. The general of brigade, S>. Genier, who
was mortally wounded, remained in the power
of the enemy.
“ On the 16th, the marshal duke of Treviso,
with a part of the foot guards and the horse
guards, and the light Bavarian cavalry, arrived
the. Beresina,- which runs into the uo
tes'henw. Thus we are masters of the com

“Iff his movement the enemy has been ob

two squadrons of Russian and two of Cossdc

At six in the morning of the 23d, the vice

“ We occupy Mohilow, O- cha, Disna, and

■*■ From the London Courier, August 14.
The arrivals from the Russian army are -fie-
quen<, and, happily, enable us to detect the
iatsehoods ol The French bulletins almost as
spon as we receive, them. We are now in pos
session of Russian accounts to the date of the
last French bulletin. They confirm one piece
of intelligence, which we shall mention befoie
we proceed to the operations which preceded
it.' Prince Bagration has effected his junction
wiih the main army. . His whole march from
fiontiers of the palatinate ofTracbi to the Dwi-
na was a serious of actions and successes.. Ro-
manow and Mohilow will long be remembered
by the enemy. At ihe first, on the 10:h July,
general Platow, who covered the march of Ba
gration with his Cossacs, was attacked by se
ven regiments of French cavalry; which he de
feated and pursued to a great distance.- Two
of the regiments, were totally destroyed. At
Mohilow, Beg: ation was attacked by the whole
cf Davoust’s cavalry, and a large body of infant
ry. An obstinate battle ensued, which termi
nated in the complete defeat of the enemy,
who left between fiye and six thousand on the
field—had 1000 men taken prisoners; includ
ing between fifty. and sixty staff-officers. The
French artillery was also taken. The enemy
seem to have been heartily tired of making any
further attempts to impede Bagration’s march,
which, from Mohilow to the Dwina, appears to
have been executed without difficulty. This
success oi Sagration, who, it must be confess
ed, seemed to be in the greatest danger, from
his long distance from the main army, and
from the manner in which Bonaparte spread
himself from the Wilta to Se rezyna, has caus
ed universal exultation. At Riga and other
places, Te-Deum was sung, and there were re
joicings and illuminations.

On Saturday morning, some Canada mer

their property in the colonies. They were in
formed, that besides ;he naval force, wrttcb had
been augmented, one regiment bad been or
dered from Barbadoes to Halifax, and the 103d

: The crown prince had some time Since drawn

for this disappointment, it had been ordered by
the court of Stockholm, that none of tbe divi

We receive this morning the following let- '

“ The north of Europe wears a most favora

in arms, and 1500 pieces of cannon ^Sweden is
preparing to land-40,060 men in Germany^and
those will be joined by 20.000 m< fe from-Fin

60,000 men in his rear, and if Russia cart pro
tract the war, it is supposed that the popula*ioo

most spirited addresses have been cnculated,
calling on the people of the north to emulate the

The count D’Antraigues, it is said, was the

A Welsh seaman of the name of Jones,
was found on board La Ville de Caen privateer.
This man was easily recognized on the capture
of the privateer, having sailed in several priva
teers out of the port of Plymouth, and being
generally known as a man of the most deter
mined courage and most profligate habits —
He has also been in the royal navy, has ccca.-
sionally been a master’s mate, and has desert
ed from several ship9. iFhile he sailed in the
Plymouth privateers, he was frequently engag
ed in contests with the police, and has been
known to strike terror even amongst the mem
bers of a press gang. He will be tried at the
next admiralty sessions. His connexions are
respectable. * - j
The Harvest in ENGLAND.-v-There has
not been for years, a greater promise of an
abundant harvest than there is at present. The
corn is so strong and thick,that it cannot suffer
by the late.heavy rains—and throughout the
neighboring corn counties not a blade is lodg
ed. The fruitful appearance of the Isle of
Thanet is almost unprecedented, both for'the
quantity and the quality of the grain. Trough-
cut Sussex the harvest is equally promising—
and in the event of favorable weather, there
promises to be a larger crop than has been
-known for several years. Matty of the ears of
wheat are fourchested, and extremely well filled
out. A gentleman in Sussex, last week, took ;
from a single ear, 80f incipient grains of corn. *
The barley harvest has commenced in many
places and the sheaves, have fallen heavier on
tbe. sickles than they have for many seasons
past—consequently there will be a very great
reduction in the price of barley, as soon as the
-threshing ol the new sheaves commences.
