London, July 2. We hear with much pltafure, that accounts have been received by government, of the French having been repulfed with ccnfidera ble lois in feveral attempts which they made on the 15th, i6di, and 17 th uii. to crofs tlie Danube, in the neighborhood of Prtfburg.— The details of theft operations are Unknown \ but the faff of the de feat of the enemy is fo tar credited by ininifters, as to. have induced their communication of it to Prince Scab re ro burg, and to the Spanifh Ambafikdor. Yefterday we received an Am sterdam p iper of Tueltiay laity to gether with feveral German Gaz ettes to the 2o:h ulr. The informa tion Which they furniih will be read with incereft, principally as Ihrwing the great embarraffmenis to which Bonaparte is reduced and the fiuc- Ci lies which have attended the pat nufic exertions of the Tyroleans. So critical has Bonaparte’s fitua tion btc:c:ne, fo comprchenfive are expeditions to reinforce h:s,ar my, that me ibldiera wounded in are battles of Ration, Echrnul, Ac. wins were left in the fick quarters a; Munich, Augfourgh, Ac. have been obliged to appear before a medical com million, charged with an ex amination into the conditon of their won ids, and every man, fufficiemly recovered to be competent to do any kind of military duty, has b- en fent to the army in waggons. tween the ift and 12th of June, General Moulin fent from Ai’gf burg upwards of joo wounded r Ri ccis for Vienna. Many of ihoft, who were unable to bear the fa tigue ot a had carriage were con veyed by water. The communication between Munich and Vienna has become fo inlecure from the incur fions of die Auftrians and Tyrolians, that five waggons loaded w ith fpccie, which were proceeding from Munich for the payment of the French army, had, on their arrival at Marker, been obliged to return to Munich, and it was fuppofed would be fent for greater fecurity to Augfburg. Bonaparte, after the idle battle of Ra iilbur, ordered his military chef.", arid the greater part of me baggrge or his army,^to be lent to LVleru, promifing his foldiers abundant (up piies from the Auftrian magazines. He has however, been difappoihtcd and been obliged to bring back his, baggage, Ac. from the Rhine to Augfburg, ar.d to trahfport 1c from thence to Vienna 6n rafts. Early in June, Count Collowarch inter cepted three of thefe rafts, with a cofi ftrable quantity of baggage and amuniticn, oh the Danube, below C rents. ‘X he moft important fucccffes continue to crown the patriotic ex ertions of the Tyroiiafts. They have compelled the Bavarian Gen. Derby to fly from the ftrong pofi tion of Kufftin, after two days fight ing, and to retire by Wis-lbichau towards ‘ Munich. Gen. Pi earn had at the lame time, been driven from Kempton, and been purified as Kaufaeuron within four polls of Aufburg, while the Wirtemburg corps, under Gen. Von Scheelci, has been beaten beyond the Scheffer,. Another corps of Patriots, from Schernitz, had advanced into Ba varia, as far as Aibiing and had on tneir return been joined by numbers of the inhabitants. The Archduke Maximilian, on retiring from Vienna, ca tied with bin; the whole of his own corps, to gether with 6coo men who had joined him on the 1 it!:, under the orders of Gen. Kienmaver, and this retreat, which is reprtfenred in the French Bulletin as the flight of a few individuals, was Conducted with the greatefl: order. Early in the laft month feveral waggons loaded with preferus from Napoleon to Alexander, puffed through Frankfort, on their route from Paris to Petetfburgh.—They are valued atthreti millions of flo -1 ins. A confiderable number of troops have been ftationed along the Ruf fian coaft, in the Baltic, under an apprehenfion of a defeent Ircm the Britifii fiquadroas in that lea. Extraordinary exertions are mak ing in Bavaria to recruit the army, and fix battalions of referve have been ordered.—The people, howe ver, are decidedly adverfe to the fervice, and great numbers have joined the infurgents in the Tyrol.
