In consequence of the negoti
ations for pence between France
and Austria continuing so long
without being brought to a suc
cessful close rumors have for
dome days been afloat of the like
lihood of a renewal of hostilities
between those two powers, and
of th Russians and Prussians
v, liting with the latter against
France and those rumors i:i part
seem strengthened by the follow
in ( article, which is taken from
the London Papers of this moa
ning.
The M’lmsh Court Gazette, of
Sept. If // contains the foUo'vbiP
General O der, published in the j
Austrian hea l- jn triers,
4i My bdo v 1 subjects, an d
even my enemies, know that I
did not engage in the present
v i,. f r v n niorives of ambition,
r.orn desire of conquest. Self
- p 'ese-vation and independence, a
j- tee consistent with the honor
*oi »ny crown, and "ith the -a etv

sfi tuted the exalted and sole aim
of mv exertions.
“ The chance of war disap
pointed my expectations, the en
emy penetrated into the interior
of my dominions, and overan
j with ail the horrors of war ; but
{he leant'd at the same time, to
appreciate the public spirit of my
people, and the value of my ar
mies. This experience, whi h
he dearly bought, and my con
stant solicitude to promote the
prosperity of my dominions, led
to a negotiation for peace.
“ My Ministers empowered
for that purpose have met those
of »he French Kmperor. My j
wish is an honorable peace—-a j
peace, the stipulation of which
offer a prospect and possibility of
duration. The value of my ar
mies their unshaken courage,
their ardent love of their country,
their desire strongly pronounced
not to lav down their arms till an
honorable peace shall have been
obtained, could not allow me to
agree to conditions which threat
ened to shake the very foundati
ons of the monarchy, and dis
grace us.
“ 'Fhe high spirt which anni
mates my troops, affords me the
best security that, should the en
emv vet mistake our sentiments
and dispositions, we shall cer
tainly obtain the reward of per

j as rcla'ing to an ev nt <>f which no au

our readers with considerable interest.
We give them pretty nearly inthe terms
of the or'urinalr—
“ Rv the ship Rahimshaw. we have
t’eo iven in account of the victory lat' ly
obtained bv the warriors of Iran over
the armies of Russia. This event hap
pened towards the latter end <>f the
month of Ramoian, in tho year 122.1 of
flu- Hij-erree, {corresponding with the
middle of Nov. 1808 of the Christi h
•/E'*a.)Tlir following ire the particulars.
A hrge Russian force, well mpointed
and armfirtred, and pjwrrfully sup
port, dhy formidable artillery, h ving
m relied from T.-fflets, for the purpose
ot reducing thr fortress of Prw .u ; in
te'lig' nee of their movements was coifi
mmocatedto \lahorned Houss in Kahn,
K-tijjur of Cosvet-n, R gler R gee, the
High in Digni v. Immediately on the
receipt »f the information, that Chief
tain assembled together such troops of
the victorious army is he had in readi
ness. and proceeded by rapid m .rrhes
to meet the Russians. As soon as the
two armies came within sight of each
other, the enemy opened a heavy fire
from their artillery which destroyed a
portion of the Persi »n troops. Upon
this, Mahomed Houss on K .hn. the re
nowned f >r hr v rv. calling to mind the
w rds of the proverb (which id,v be
translated—“ The better port of valor
is discretion,) —had recourse to the
W iff >re of flight— he thus inveigled the
Russi ms to fallow him, and directed his
j v? iv towards the fortress of Aroomee.
I woere the tents of his soldiers were in
■ termixed witn the dwellings of the in
! habit <nti. The pursuit was k- pt up hv
• lhe en mv with mu r h eagerness and
| pr-cipit »tion, un it they came within
range of *he fortress: when the Persi
m artillery opened. and, at the firs
discharge, a vast numberof the Russian
so dit'H w re consumed in the fire of
mort ditv At the same moment, the
victorious troops of Mahomed H-.ussain
Kahn rush d, with drawn s'imitars a
mong the rmks of th- enetnv, and
~ man' t-d their discomfiture. In the
..onfiict which ca»ucd, about 7 or 800 q
Russians Wl a prev to the remorseless
S'VoVr), m r.v of their chief uns were
made prisoners, and a great oart of
their guns, arms, and accoutrements,
fell into the hands of the conqrn ring
Persi ns. The Russian Commander in
Chief fl.d towards Ttffl'-es. ,
“ As so. .n as t VI a homed Houssain
Kahn was completely assut*-d of the de
feat and flight of the enemy, he trails
mitted >n count of this great victory
to thi Prince ofthe World, Abbas Mir- 1
zu, who sits on the Throne of Royalty
at Z hreez. At f ht same time, Mahom
ed Moussdn Kahn himStlf proceeded
towards Teffteez, in pursuit of the Rus
si ns. When the irtJligen e reached
tilt Prince Ab vz Vlirza, he immediately
forwarded a detail of the circumstances
of the victory to the King, and, taking
the field in person, with a powerful ur
my, also set out in the direction of
Ll’efflrez, with a fix. d determination in
mis v liantmind, toextirpatetheßussian
nation !
“ Mahomed Knrreem Kahn Afshaar,
(a relation to the Prime Minister, Mir
z Mahomed Shusset ) received instruc
tions from the King, to spread ;-bro id
the tidings of this joyful event; Threfc
despatches uron the su* ject were ac
cordingly sent from Tali eran j ope to
the Princeofthe World, RuUr of Per
sia and Kiiokh deny a, of all tin- Havens
and Shoies. and of the Land of Lhar—
another to Mahomed Nubee Kalin,
Lord of the Sea—and a third to the Bri
tish Envoy.
“Vs moreover, it w ; ,s manifest, that,
in this iff ir. *he Russians h d Intn the
aggressors, it now occurred to the mind
■ oi tin King, that they must have actgd
under the inflii' nc t of the French Am
h t«-s .dor, at present in attendance at the
Court of Persia. The dust of vexation*
therefore, settled in the skirts of the
Rov.il favnr towards t* e French nation.
{ and it became desirable in the ev. s o{
; th-- King, that the friendship Subsisting
with that people should he dissolved.
He was inclined to dismiss the Embas
sy. and according to one report, has
actually done so—according to another,
however, which is consider., d as the
more authentic ot the two, he Ivis post
poned the < xrrution of his purpose, tin
til the arrival of’he British Envoy.”

This morning arrived the Earl

mail and sever d passengers, who
report that no certain intelligence
had reached that place from the
Austrian head-quarters, but the
prevailing opinion was in favor of
the renewal of hostilities between
the emperor of Germany and
Bonaparte, and it is considered ag
most probable, that the next packet
which may be expected to-mor
row, will bring news to that effect.
