The firft took its way by Cracow and Theiefjtol; the second by Cuihau, Lemberg, and Barodi ; and the third by Tyrnan, Baltfka, and Uffiadin. The emperor of Russia went at the head of the firft column. Independent of the field artillery, the Ruffians loft a whole park of artillery of 100 pieces of cannon, with three ammunition waggons. The emperor has ftnee infpefted this park, and has given oiders that all these pieces (hould be sent to France, It is without example, that in a single battle, from 150 to 160 pieces of esnnon should be taken. All had been fired and had rendered fcrvicc in the aAion. “ Several letters from Vienna, afferf, that a war with Prussia is not far distant ; hut it is much more to he believed that a continental peace is near.

The evil* of war, which have borne so heavily upon us, have at length terminated. Ycftcrday the withed for intelligence was brought from Ptelburg, of the concjufion cf a peace between Austria and France. The war had lasted two months, and the peace has God be thanked, put an end to it. According to the terras agreed upon, the French are to leave Vienna in fourteen days. This day, after the figning'of the treaty of peace, the Emperor left Shcenbrunn to proceed to Paris byway of Munich, where his Majcfty will not stay above three days; The peace concluded seems to be definitive, Italy, Dec. 10. Marthal Maflcna has irapofed a contribu tion of fix millions of francs upon Tricfte, half to be paid in calh, and the rest to be paid in good bills of exchange. All Eng liflv property at Tricfte is confifcatcd. Let. ters from Naples eftimnte the Ruffians and Montenegrins landed there at 30,000, and the English at 3, 000 men. Malilna has detached a force to meet them. 10-ndon, December 30. Paris papers and Dutch Gazettes to the 19th inst, arrived this morning. The Emperor of Austria after having 3- greed to the armistice, isfaid so have req ucf. ted leave to extend it to the Ruffians. Na poleon observed that he had so completely fur rounded them, that not a man could es cape ; but that from his refpert for the Em peror Alexander, he would fend general Savery to him, intimating his wilh to put an end to the calamities of war, and away for the retreat of the Ruffians. Ocn. Savary on being introduced to the Emperor Alexander, was received in the most gracious manner. He is said to have exprefled the highest admiration of the Em peror Napoleon. Gen, Savary observed, *'* that it was the 40th battle which his so- ( vereign had gained," to which the Emperor Alexander is said to have replied, ** that it was the firft in which he was engaged."— When it was alked what guarantee the Emperor Napoleon would require ? Savary replied, f< Only your word Sire ! It is reported, that Prussia is to cede Barcuth and Anfpach to Bavaria ; and it is Hkewifc said, Ea(l Fricfeland and Erobden and Denmark, fur which fne is to he indent, nified by receiving part of Hanover, namely, Luncburgh and Lauenburgb, the territories of Bremen. &c. But (he is to cede Lubeck. Bonaparte, it is said, has declared, that the Electoral dignity (hall be conferred on a neighboring Prince, supposed to be the Duke of Brunswick, others fay, the King of Denmark, as Duke of Oldcnburgh. January 20. The dispatches received by government from fir Arthur Paget, lord Harrowby and Mr, Jackson, have confirmed the statement relative to the terras of the treaty of peace between Austria and France The Tyrol is to be ceded to Bavaria and the kingdom ot Italy, the Northern Tyrol to the former, and the Southern to the latter. The Voralberg to be given to Bavaria. The Austrian porteffions in Suabia snd Franconia to Bavaria, Wcrterabcn? and I'.u i den. 'fhe Innvcrthall, a moil important acqui. (ition, is to be annexed to the king of Italy, together with the Venetbn Provinces. Fifty millions of florins arc to be paid to France. Bonaparte has alfo"demanded thexeffion cf Xuria and Dalmatia, but this demand was finally refilled by the Arch-doke Charles, w r ho deft red an interview with Bonaparte for the purpofc of (luting his determined op position to it. The Arch-duke’s army was at Eidenbcrg, four posts from Vienna, at the commence ment of the ncgociation for peace—his pre. fence perhaps produced some beneficial effert; but the terms of peace are yet severe and hard enough. • We suppose that the erertion of the elec torates of Bavaria, and Wirtemhcrg into kingdoms, Iws been ftipuiated in the treaty the elertor of Wirtemberg has already af firmed the title of king of Suabia. France it is said is to keep the forts and tetes-deponrs of Ebrenbrsitstin, Cartel, Old BnTach and Kehl ; the fort of Cartel is just finiihed, and is said to be a masterpiece of Tonification. Kehl is nearly completed. In the mean time, though peace has been eftablilhed upon the coblit ent, Bonaparte js iacreafing his armies, and So.ooo conscripts have been ordered to be raised for the year 1806, Whiltt he was at Brunn, he was articled with au opthalnaic complaint, which, however, was but of ftiort continuance. January 23. Mr. PITT IS DEAD I We prepared our readers yesterday to expert this afflicting an mmciation. He died at hall pad four o'clock this morning. On Taefday hisdifordcr, as we are inform ed, took an unfavorable turn, and the phyfi. cians, who had imagined that he migh yet linger out some time, were convinced he could not furvivc eight and forty hours.— From such a man as Mr. Pitt, remarkable always for his firmnefs, it would have been culpable to have concealed that convirtion for a moment. He did not expert it, b|t he received it without the lead difmay—♦* man who had been so (t clear in his great office,'* what had he to fear ? Soon after the intelligence was conveyed to him, he re queued to be left alone with the friend and companion of his youth and life, the Bishop of Lincoln. What the nature of their long conference was : whether it related to the ohjefts of his affeftions in the world, or to his hopes and profpefts in the next, we pre sume not to know ; it related probably to both. After it was over his fever cncreafed, and be obtained but a tew minutes of short troubled repose during the night Yesterday morning it was obvious that a great change had taken place in him, and that the awful moment was faft approaching. About noon, it has been said, he requested to be supported up in bed whilfth* wrote a few 1 lines; but his wcaknefs and faintnefs were so great, that he was obliged to abandon his intend on. It were almost unnecessary to remind our readers that Mr. Pitt has been always moll fondly beloved by all his reladoas.— Lady Hester Stanhope and Mr. James Stan hope arc said to have had an interview with him yesterday evening and to have received his Lft adieu. His brother the Earl of Cha tham took Si final farewell ot him late at night. Oh bitter and agonizing moments! Mr. Pitt felt and dated them to be such. Excepting the medical attendants, the £i (hop of Lincoln was the last person with him ; he never left his chamber. Towards midnight his senses begun to fail him ; buf fers were then applied to the foies of his feet— -they produced the efftft of restoring him to his recollcftion, and he continued clear and composed till a very ihoit time be fore his dilTolution, which took place with out much additional fullering or struggle, at half past four o’clock this morning. Courier Office, half pas two, - We ftdp the Press to ftatc, that dispatches have been received from Beilin, which date that it has been agreed between the King of Pruflla and Bonaparte, that Hanover (hall be " occupied by Prussian troops till the peace.

Something rotten in the fate of Denmark, Believing, as we do, that the charafter of a public officer is ever liable to the ferutiny and investigation of the people, and that his good or bad deeds, (hould be praised or ccn fured, according to their good or evil tender- ' cy; yet notwithstanding this belief, a sacred regard for the purity and inviolabity of the representatives of the American nation, and a sanguine hope, that rumour may have ex aggerated the fafts and surmises which fol low, induce us to suppress the name of the individual, who has been charged with the commission *>f a crime, during the proceed ings with closed doors, too enormous to be overlooked, and too wicked to go unpun. iffied. Without further preface or intro duftion, we (hall proceed to Hate briefly the fafts with which we are acquainted, and the ' surmises which are predicated on these fafts. It is a faft, ttiat a certain senator, from one of the Rates to the fouth ot Virginia, has been, and still is, in the almost daily habit of franking letters to a certain anglo fcderal house in this towm, noted for its hos tilities to republicanism. ' It is an incontrovertible faft, that this house, when scarcely another merchant ven tured to rific his capital in projefts of fpeco larion, were buying every leaf of tobacco and every bag of cotton which they could lay their hands upon, j And rumor, which null have fomc ground to build on, has asserted as faft, that these franked letters embraced the - proceedings during doled doors, and detailed their probable issue—aliening, that the members from the northern and more commercial feftions of the union, were averse to mea- (ares of hoftUitjr tgainfi Great-Britain, aR( j were determined tofruftrate every propcfi. r tion, calculated to suspend the commercial intercourse of the two countries. What are the furmifea arising front tliefi established fads; Are we not kd to fuppof e that an American senator has proftrattd the dignity of his station, by holding criminal intercourse with individuals inimical to the government of the O. States, and hostil e to our republican institutions, and unwar. rantably difclofcd the secret proceedings 0 f the national legiflaturc ? If these letters did not contain information, which other mem, hers deemed sacred, whence originated the deep fpcculations which this house were carrying on, whilst their trading brethern had almost fufpended* hufinefs, anxiously waiting the final determnation of the guar dians of the country ? Will they pretend to superior knowledge and forefight in un folding the myfterics of government, when|i the lynx-eyed politicians on the spot, can/ pot penetrate the veil ? They cannot. We wish it to be diftinftly understood, that we attach not the fmallcft particle of blame to the commercial house in question. They were undoubtedly right to avail themfelvcs of every information in their poflcfllon. But of the senator, we hold a different opinion. If he has been guilty *f the surmises alledgcd, (and we trull in God he has not) he (hould faffer that punishment, which the enormity of his crime demands. His name is in the mouth of every man, and every man has palled sentence of condemnation, Peterfhurg Paper, TRADE TO CADIZ.
