S Stamp- Duty - 3d. f nt 3d. I it Sunday and Tuesday's Posts. LONDON, TUESDAY, Dec. 2.9. LETTERS from the Peninsula say, that nothing could exceed the had conduct of the French on coining into Madrid and Salamanca. Soult prevented the soldiers from pillaging Madrid, but there was an immediate arrest of every person supposed to be friendly to the English, or the patriotic cause, and all their property was seques- trated— nt the same time a very heavy contribution was levied on the whole inhabitants. The fine town of Salamanca was given up to plunder for 24 liours, ami the scene committed was too horrible for description ; all for the attention shewn to the English. *; • It is reported that orders have been sent to the ''" French Marshals in Spain to send to France in- stantly half the effective force under their com- mand. Massena is said to have been sent for to Paris. Two Gottenburgh Mails arrived last night bringing advices from thence to the 19th, and from St. Petersburg!) to the 8tli instant. The accounts from the Russian arinv come down to the 29th ult. being one ( lay later than the accounts of any active operations in the 29th French Bul- letin. The last French Bulletin claimed a com- plete victory over TchichagofF's army at the passage of the Beresina on the 28th ult. in which the Russians were stated to have lost 0,000 pri- soners; hut it appears from the Russian official accounts that the French were defeated on that • day, and lost several hundred prisoners. The affair between Gen. Sachen's corps and the Aus- trians under Prince Schwartzenberg, which has been represented in the Paris Journals as so dis- astrous to the former, turns out, as was antici- pated, to have been, in fact, in favour of the Russians. The letters from Gottenhnrgb mention a report, as prevalent there, that advices have been re- ceived from Copenhagen, stating, that the Danish Government had it in contemplation to make peace with this country; and that as a preliminary to an adjustment of the differences' between I lie twocuut'tries, Commissioners were to be appointed to ascertain the value of the ships taken away from Copenhagen, and since lost; and also to award a- compensation to the inhabitants of that capital for the damages sustained by the bom- bardment, in return for which the Danes were to join ihe British and Russian Confederacy, and to furnish an army of 50,000 to act in the rear of the French— A more auspicious moment than the present can ever be expected for" the recovery of the independence of the north of Germany, and Denmark is as much interested in such an event as Russia or Great Britain. Bonaparte, in his flight from the army in Lithuania to Paris, travailed at the rate of nearly 100 wiiles a day, performing the whole journey ( from Smorgony, where he left his Generals on the 5th of December, to the French capital, where he arrived on the 18th)) in less than IS days. Of these 13, nine were consumed in for Strasburgh, where his Ambassador would wait for her; hut the carriage in which she was to set off with her son would have taken the road to Dieppe, instead of the road to Strasburgh; and from Dieppe she and the boy would have been sent to England. The Navy.— The first and great object of onr arch enemy is indisputably the crippling; our naval supplies ; liis unprovoked attack on Russia had this principally in view, and his intrigues with Amerira are directed to Ihe same end. It will not therefore be uninteresting to present a statement of the demands which this '' main prop and pillar of the State" daily makes upon our resources.— Assum- ing 400,000 tons a9 Ihe amount of tonnage to be kept in commission, and the average duration of a ship of wnr at the moderate period of lgj years, there would he required an annunl supply of lonnage to preserve the navy in ils present effective state, of 32,000 tons ; and as a load and a halt of timber is employed for every Ion, the annual demand will be 48,000 loads. The building of a 74- gun ship consumes about 2,000 oak trees, or 3,000 loads of timber; so that 48,000 loads will build eight sail of the line, and lfi frigates. Allowing one- fourth part more for casualties, the annual consumption will be about 60,000 loads, or 40,000 full- grown trees; of which 35 will stand upon an acre of ground. The quantity of timber therefore neces- sary for Ihe construction of a 74- guo ship will occupy 57 Acres of land ; and the annual demand will he the produce of 1110 acres. Allowing only 00 years for the oak to arrive at perfection, there ought to be now standing 102,600 acres of oak plan- tations. and an annual felling and planting in per- petual rotation of 1140 acres to rtieel the censump- lion of the navy alone ! large as this may seem, it is little more than 24 Acres for each county of England and Wales, which is not equal to the belt which surrounds the park and pleasure grounds of many estates. AuxiliaryBiblt Societies in Middlesex.— K numerous and respectable meeting of the inhabitants of the northern division of the Metropolis, was held at the Albion House, Aldersgate- street, on Saturday se'nnight, when ( W. Mainwaring, F. sq. having taken the chair) it was resolved to form an Auxiliary Bible Society, to be called, " the North London and Islington Auxiliary Bible Society.'— The Marquis of Northampton was appointed Pre- sident, and several other Noblemen and Gen- tlemen, Vice - Presidents of the institution.— And on Tuesday a highly respectable meeting of the inhabitants of Hackney, Newington, and its vicinity, was held at the Mermaid Hack- ney, for the purpose of forming a Society, to be called, " the Hackney and Newingtori Aux- iliary Bible Society."— T. F. Forster, Esq. who was called to the chair, opened the business of the day, and the nature and object of the Parent Society having been explained by the Secretaries of the same, resolutions were agreed to for the formation and guidance of the Branch Society proposed to be established.— The Marquis of Downshire accepted the office of President, and sent a donation oOgs. It is understood, that in future, all Lieutenants in the line and regular Militia, that have served ae such for seven years, are to be entitled to the passing to Dresden, and less than four in coming j Brevet rank of Captain, and to do duty as such from Dresden to Paris. The journey, in the early stages, w as necessarily slower, on account of the badness of the roads, and the velocity accelerated in tlie latter stages, where the roads were better, and all the facilities of . travelling sreater. We believe there is scarcely an instance of greater !( dispatch. It would appear, that, except at Wilna, where he had an interview of some hours with Ma ret, Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs— and at Warsaw, where he saw Count 1' otocki, and the Minister of finance of the (' rand Duchy ( for he no longer talks of the new Government of independaut Poland)— and after- wards at Dresden, where he saw the King of Saxony— be never once made hims'elf known on the way. This rapidity of flight, as well as the secrecy and want of pomp and attendance accompanying it, betray his alarm for his personal safety. It was the same alarm, without doubt, that engaged him to avoid, as much as possible, the Prussian territory, and that of Austria also. He dreaded the fate of Richard Cocur De Lion, and with better reason. The person who accompanied him was the execrable C'aulincourt, the wietch who seized the Duke D'F. ngliein in the nentral territory of Baden, and cbaducted that distinguished and promising Prince to the mock trial which terminated in his murder. This Caulincourt, otherwise Duke of Vicenza, holds the place of Grand Equerry in Bonaparte's household. The circumstance of a body- guard of six hun- dred Officers attending Bonaparte in his late flight, is not unworthy of remark. It would indicate tlint the Fiench Emperor d d not think himself safe nnder the protection of an ordinary guard, when - j bad recourse to such an unusual and singular device: It suggests the probability that there ® must have been some great previous revolt of the ' rank and file of the French army; when the officers separated themselves from the men. The defalcation of the troops perhaps took place pre- rious to, or at the conclusion of the battles ef I) a\ oust and Ney, mentioned in the late Bulletins from St. Petersburgh, and may account for a circumstance, hitherto a matter of inexplicable surmise, why so few officers were to be found among so larije a proportion of prisoners. It ik now pretty well ascertained that a consi- derable ferment took place in Paris on the publi- cation of the last French Bulletin. ' Ihe prowds in the stro » u and the public places were numerous, and the eagerness of the public to see the Bulletins, of which 30,000 copies were sold by hawkers in the streets of Paris, was unexampled. The Bul- letin was published on the 17th, and on the 18th there was a violent disturbance at the Theatre Feydeau. The cause was attributed to th ~ absence of Martin, ihe comic actor, who was ill, and of whose illness no notice had been given to the public. The fact, however, it is now said, is, that though this might have been at first the pre- text, the riot at length became a political one. There is, in a conspicuous part of the Theatre Ftydeau, the bust of Bonaparte, and different things were thrown at it from all parts of the house, accompanied with hisses and execrations; and at length the audience, which was very nu- merous, tore it down, and trampled it under foot. After this they immediately emptied the house. The following article in a Cadiz paper seem to disclose what will speedily he the fate of mo- nastic property in Spain :— " AVer, Nov. 12.— They talk here of a project which must be very useful to the nation. It appears that according lo Ihe plan for the reformation of monasteries, the two Carthusian convents of Xerez and Seville will be reduced to one, with a revenue sufficient for the maintenance of the religious, and not more ; the rest of tbe rents will be applied lo the support of ihe Military College in the Isln and for the subsistence of invalids anil officers' widows.'' Some farther details have appeared with regard to the conspiracy of Generals Millet and Laborie, It is stated to have been part of ilieir plan to get possession of Bonaparte's wife, as well as her sou the King of Rome. With this view they had sent her a letter, purporting to come from her father, the Emperor of Austria, in which he informed her of the death of Bonaparte, her husband, and desired her, in order to avoid the troubles that would follow that event, to set off immediately their in camps and garrisons, but according to actual rank in their respective regiments. It is the opinion of our Naval Officers that we have no frigate in the service that is every way equal to cope with ihe large American frigates, ! except the Indefatigable, 44, Captain Fvffe, now in Portsmouth Harbour.— She is the only 41- qun frigate we have at present in commission. But, to reiWer her of equal force to either the Presi- dent or United States, she must have guns on her gangways, and her crew increased from 3' 10 to 476 men. Bonaparte, according to bis custom, most pro- bably will give bis Marshals Russian titles, to mark their services in this glorious campaign. The following names of whir, h the termination, at least, is Russian, appears very appropriate, as the whole of which is descriptive of the respective ser- vices of'the persons engaged :— Ney may be called KM'd- off;" tbe Viceroy, Token- off; Murat, a great cavalry officer, Knock'd off; and the Em- peror himself, if he should condescend to accept one alius more, may denominate himself— Made- off. These names will in the balance of history, be fine counterpoises to the Kutusoffs, PlatfilFs, and Tchichagoffs, of the Russians. The Paris Papers compliment Bonaparte with foreseeing every thing. We are sorry we cannot join in attributing to him so much of the prophetic talent — We very much doubt whether he foresaw the blessings, of a Russian winter, and whether he foresaw that he should be obliged to return to Pa> is, like a thief disappointed in a scheme of house- breaking. The soldiers of France who entered Russi " covered with glorv," have staid there long enou gh to be glad to change it for an " old blanket." An elegant robe of Genoa velvet, ef the value of 2000 guineas, very superbly trimmed with gold lace of the richest pattern, and embroidered in the Russian style, is making for the Russian Am bassador, as a present from his Royal Highness the Prince Regent. When the brave Sir George Rook was making his will, som* friends who were present expressed their surprize that he had not more to leave.— " Why," said the worthy man, " I do not leave much, but what I do leave was honestly acquired ; for it never cost a sailor a tear, nor my country a farthing." On the capture of the American sloop Wasp, the boatswain and boatswain's mate, were recog- nized as deserters from his Majesty's naval ser- vice: the latter from the Cleopatra, and the former bad been Sir J. P. Beresford's coxswain, when in the Cambrian ;— they are both in irons. By a letter from Portsmouth, of tbe 21st ult. it appears that the Fortune cartel had returned to that port from Morlaix, having on board ar. interesting woman, a native of Ireland, 22 years of age, who having been married t « Colonel Berthon, a French officer of artillery, lately on his parole at Chesterfield, received the permission of this Government to follow her husband to France, and embarked for ' Vt purpose at Ports- mouth on the J7tli of August iasr, has now been cruelly driven back together with her son, an infant of nineteen months old, by order of the French Authorities, and is arrived at Portsmouth as above mentioned, in a state of the greatest misery and distress, destitute of tbe means of subsistence for an hour, until relieved at the charge of Government, as is done in all cases of English women arriving from France in a state of distress. The conduct of the French Govern- ment towards this unfortunate young woman affords an additional proof of a fact which cannot be too publicly known— namely, that all marriages contracted by Freneh subjects detained in foreign countries as prisoners of war, are considered by the present French laws as invalid Bignold and Co. bankers, of Norwich, brought an action last week, in the Court of King's Bench, Guildhall, against Waterhotise, the proprietor of the Mail Coach, for losing a parcel entrusted to them, containing Bank- notes, & c.— Verdict went for the defendant, on the ground tiiat the parcel was not entered as feeing more than <£ 5 value. Wednesday last, a farmer at Attleboroucl Norfolk, accidentally left his barn doors open, when two colts entered the place, and ate so much wheat that tliev died from the effccts of distension. A Caution to the Fair. The marriage of a Mr. York to a Miss Thistleton, took place at Spalding, on the 14th; but very soon after the sacred cere- mony was over, some person informed the offici- ating Clergyman, that Miss Thistleton had two Christian names, and as the bans were only pub- lished in one of them, the marriage was deemed illegal, and the " consummation so devautly to be wished," was inadmissible in the eye of the law, till the w hole routine of asking in church, and re- marrying is again performed, which commenced de novo last Sunday. The curiosity of several persons in the neigh- bourhood of Halnaker, near Chichester, was last week excited by the figure of a man, apparently in a round frock, on tbe ice of a pond . in the park, but no individual being missed in the parish, it was conceived to be an accidental impression oil the ice, and was, by many, treated as u fancy.— It being, however, on Tuesday se'nnight, ascertained that a man named Richards, of the neighbouring parish of Charlton, was missing, the pond was searched, and he was found lying at its bottom, in ten feet water, exactly under the figure. This appearance was probably caused by the vapour of his bodv, which had began to putrify, previously to the freezing of the pond. The ice was uniformly seven inches thick; but that which composed tlie figure was darker and more transparent. The deceased was going by the pond on his way home, and, it is supposed, had fallen into it in a state of intoxi- cation, as the night was very daik. During the night of Sunday se'nninght, Edith Murrey, the woman tried with Lomas ( since executed) for assisting in the murder of her hus- band, at Hankelow, was delivered of a fine heal- thy male child, in Chester castle. Although it has been customary to carry the sentence of death into execution within forty- one days after delivery, in this instance, it is said, sentence will be respited till the ensuing spring assizes. The con- duct of the miserable wretch since her trial, has been suitable to the awful situation in which she is placed. Dreadful Accident.— On Sunday se'nnight 2G people were unfortunately drowned, by the break- ing of the ice, at Duxbury, near Chorley, in Cheshire. It was occasioned by two men fighting, when the people gathering together on the ice to witness the frav, the ice gave way, and the above number lost their lives. As a party of boys, eighteen in number, were amusing themselves last week, near Battle, in Sussex, by slidiug on ice over a pond which was remarkably deep, it suddenly gave way, and the whole went under and were drowned; 13 of the bodies were with difficulty got out some time after, but the other five have not yet been found.

SIRS,— I avail myself of the extensive circulation of your paper to communicate to the Subscribers and Friends ot the Nortlwmptonshire Auxiliary Hible Society, the peculiar dilficulrv that exists in procu* ing an adequate supply of Bibles and Testaments, in return for the contributions remitted to the Parent Society in London. It is necessary to state the causes of this difficulty, in order to obviate any miscon- ception. and lo evince that no charge of neglcct can possibly attach to any quarter. Since the period ot the establishment of the Northamptonshire Auxiliary Bible Society in May last, the Secretaries have not been able to procure more than two very inadequate supplies from the deoository in London ; and in re- ply to the earnest solicitations which they did not fail to make to the British and Foreign Hible Society on the subject, they have received the warmest assurances of a disposition on their part to comply with such request, as far as the restrictions imposed on tlieir printing, and the vast increase of institutions throughout the kingdom ( all making similar de- mands upon them) might possibly admit. With respect to thefirst/ the restriction on printing Bibles and Testaments, itis well known to be confined to the presses of the two Universities and to the ICing's Printer; but ail extension ot this privilege has lately been obtained, in consequence of strong re- presentations made to government on the inadequacy of present existing means to comply with the almost univeisal demand for Bibles and Testaments from every part of the kingdom ; and the Parent Society now hold out a promise that they will soon be enabled to make exertions more commensurate with the demands made upon them. As to the latter point, the vast influx of Aux- iliary Bible Societies throughout the Kingdom, it is well known that the public attention has never been so fully engrossed by any subject, nor lias any Insti- tution ever enjoyed so ample a recognition of its prin. ciple and object » s the one in question. Most of the counties are already organized, partial opposition has only called forth increased zeal. No less than three County Institutions have been formed in the course of last November, and two of them on Hie same day; and Princes. Nobles, Statesmen, three and twenty Bishops, and 20,000 Subscribers have given their concurrent testimony to this laudable undertaking. The result of this lias been that the depository in London, has proved totally unequal to such multiplied demands, the extent ot which may be in some measure appre- ciated from calculations made with all the correctness which the enquiry admits of, from which it is pre- sumed that no less than two Millions of People in this Country are destitute ef the If'ordof God. I leave these facts without any comment upon them.— The reason why they are now dwelt upon is to account tor the circulation of Bibles and Testaments in this County, having hitherto been so inadequate to the liberality ol the public, and the wishes of those who have the direction of the Institution; and to assure the Friends and Subscribers of the Northamptonshire Auxiliary Bible Society, that no zeal has been, or shall be want- ing on their part, to procuie such supplies, as the multiplied demands on the Patent Society enables them to grant, and which the extension of the pri- vilege of printing may henceforth be expected to accelerate.

Resolved,— That the Pioject be opposed in all its Stages. Resolved,— That Mr. Holland's Report be published in the Times, Northampton Mercury, and Cambridge Chronicle, and Copies thereof be sent to the Members of the Counties and Towns of Bedford and Buck- ingham. H. H. HOARE. That the Thanks of the Meeting be given to the Chairman, tor his able Conduct in the Chair. Mr. HOLLAND'S REPORT. SIR,— In Compliance with the Resolution of the Proprietors and Occupiers of Land on the intended Canal, from the Grand Junction Canal at Simpson, to Bedford, transmitted by you to me, I beg Leave to inform you, that I have surveyed the Line, which ( though very difficult and expensive, more particularly so for the first seven Miles from Simpsonj appears to me to be practicable in Execution, and capable of being supplied amply with Water by Means ot Re- servoirs, but in Situa- ions that will destroy much and very valuable Land. V The Expenseof executing this Lineappears however to me to be so greatasto present almost insurmount- able Obstacles, and it parses through a Country where no very large Extent of Traffic can be ex- pected ; Coal, which is generally found on Inland Canals to bethemost material Article pf Traffic, cannot on this Canal be expccted to be navigated to any fur- ther Extent than the Consumption of the Inhabitants upon and noar the very Banks of the Canal itself, as the Price of Sea Coal at Bedford, and Pit Coal at Simpson, are now so nearly equal, that the greatest Probability is, that the Inhabitants will get their Supplies from the nearest of those Markets to their Residences, and no thoroughfare Trade of Consequence in that Article can be expected from either End. A Communication with the Eastern Counties is already established by the Northampton Railway to the navigable River Nine, which will be further im- proved by the Canal intended to be made by the Grand Junction Company ; and when the low Rates of Tonnage by that Communication are considered, but little Traffic can be expected to pass along the Bedford Canal from that Quarter to the Noith and North- West Parts of the Kingdom. Ill Districts of more extended Population and In- tercoursu where Canals have been projected and carried into Execution, many very important Undertakings have tailed in the Prospects held out for remunerating the Proprietors; and the Expenses to he here encoun- tered appear to me to equal, if not exceed, any of those. I will, for Instance, enumerate the Hudders- field, the Rochdale, the Lancaster, the Worcester and Birmingham, the Ellesmere, the Kennet and Aven, and there are many others similarly circumstanced. I haveestimate'd the Expenseof executing this Line with such Reservoirs, as are laid down upon the Plan deposited with the Clerk of the Peace, Land, Damage, and all other contingent Expenses, at .£ 299,100. The Tonnagas proposed to be taken on this Canal are as high as Three- pence per Ton per Mile, being more than equal to double the Tonnage per Mile taken on an Average ot the Canals in the Kingdom, and in many Instances the Proprietors are under the Necessity of reducng theTollson various Articles, to command a Trade and prevent a Prohibition, by charging the Articles with too heavy an Expense.— The Grand Junction Canal Company have lowered the Tonnage on Traffic upon their Line of many Thousand Tons of different Articles, which yearly navigate thereon, to insure the Traffic, notwithstanding the Parliamen- tary Rates of Tonnage do not exceed more than about one Half of the Rates proposed to be taken on this Line, therefore it clearly shews, that high Tonnages may, if exacted, prove delusive, and defeat the Ob- jects of the Proprietors. In all Probability, theie- fore, very little Trade would be seen upoa this Canal with such high Rates of Tonnage. It is not possible to form a correct Calculation of the Traffic which might be expected on this Line ot Canal, but from my Observation andExperience on such Occasions, I should conceive that if Thirty Thousand Tons per Annum of all Articles were to be calculated upon, it would be far more than could be founded upon any rational Expectation. Computing however upon Thirty Thousand Tons, and supposing the Whole to be navigated throughout the Canal, calculating at Three- pence per Ton per Mile, the Produce would be Five Thousand Six Hundred and Twenty- five Pounds; deducting from this the Expenses of the Establishment, Repairs, Parliamen- tary and Parochial Rates, Salaries of Toll Clerks, Lock- keepers, & c. & c. taken at the most moderate Calculation at Tipo Thousand Five Hundied Pounds per Annum, would leave a net Sum to be divided amongst the Proprietors of Three Thousand One Hun- dred and Twenty- five Pounds, and on a Supposition ot tbe Expenses being Two Hundred and Ninety- nine Thousand One Hundred Pounds, which being divided into Shares of One Hundred Pounds each, will pro- duce Dividends of One Pound and Eleven Pence per Cent, per Annum. I do think some stronger Reasons ought to have been given,— more pressing Wants stated,— some Town of Consequence or populous Districts deprived of Coals, Lime, & c. for Want t> f Water Carriage, before the Land- Owners, Occupiers, and the Public had been called upon to sacrifice so great a Portion of such valuable Land. 1 have madeeveiy Enquiry, and it is my Oninion it will prove injurious and incon- venient without any adequate Advantages ; but to no Person will the Loss prove so serious as to the'Sub scribers to the Undertaking; as should an Act of Parliament be obtained, 1 see but little Probability of its ever being completed, and will be a singular Instance ot a Canal being made for the Conveyance of Articles between Districts where the Exchange lias been so small that even a Turnpike- Road lias not hitherto been found necessary. 1 am Sir, Your most obedient Servant.

DISPATCHES, of which tlie following are copies-, have been received by Viscount C* s tfieaglv, his Majesty's Principal Secretary of > tate for - Foreign Affairs, from Gen. Viscount Cathrart, K, T': JitS Majesty's Ambassador Extra- ordinary and Plenipotentiary to the Emperor ot Russia, dated the Soth November., nnd 6th and 7th instant. St. Pelersliurgh, Now. 30,1812. MY LOUD,— In my dispatch of the 25th instant, I, had the honour to state 10 your Lordship the important and brilliant success of his Imperial Wnjestv's- armi in the affairs of the 17th and 18th, in the former ef which Marshal Dnvoust's division was defeated nnd dispersed with great loss,, Bona- parte and the Marshal flying from the field of battle; and in the latter Marshal Ney's division, near the same place, said to have consisted of eighteen thousand men, appears to have been completely accounted for by the numbers killed nnd wounded, in addition to those who afterwards Inid ifown their arms. 1 also stated the general distribution of ihe armies as they stood at that lime. I have now the honour tn acquaint your Lordship, thai Gen. Field- Marshal Prince KutusolFSmolenski, reports, on the 23d November, from Laniky Farm that ('. rtnaparte. with his guards, left Orsha on the 20th November, nnd marched on the road to Kochi& ioff; and that on the 21st the remaining treffps of the enemy marched out of the former place, leaving twenty- six guns, and some hospitals, In which were 50 wounded French officers. General (" cunt PlatofT is ordered to follow the arm- marching on Kochanoff. A detachment under Major- Gen. F. rmaloff, con- sisting of fourteen battalions of infantry, some cavalrv, anil two companies of artillery, is directed to move bv Orslri to reinforce Count Platoff. The advanced- guard of the main army, under the command of General Mill iradoviteb, consisting nfthe2d and 7th divisions of infantry, and the 2d division of cavalry, was to cross the Dnieper on the 23d, at Knpys. and was to direct its inarch upon Tnlotchina to join Gen, ErraalofT's detachment. Themain. irmv will cross the Dnieper, at Kopys, on the 24th, aud march by Starasel to Tsetzershioff, from whence it may be directed according to cir- cumstances, either upon Bobra or Berezinoff. General Wittgenstein reports on the 24ih No- vember, from the village of Cherai, 1hot Admiral Tchichagoff was at Borisnff on the 24th instant, - whence General Langeron informed the Count, by letter? of the 22d instant, that General Couiit Lambert was at Borizoff on the 21st, where he defeated the whole corps of DembrnfTki, taking six cannon, two colours, and three thousand pri- soners, driving them on upon the road to Orsha; that Count Lambert had also taken at Kaidanoff two guns, and from two to three thousand prisoners, nnd that, including the hospitals at Minsk, in the last eight days upwards uf 11,000 prisoners, and 21 guits hud been taken. Victor and Oudinot have retired from before Count Wittgenstein upon ISorliofF; the lafter is marching in pursuit of them, and on the 23d took 800 prisoners and many carriages. Count Wittgenstein reports, that. Gen. Platoff is marching against the great body of the enemy's corps upon Toulochinow, by which it appears the encmv is inclosed on three sides— Gen. PlatofT in his rear. At miral Tchichngoff in their front, and Count Wittgenstein on their flank A report was received yesterday of another general officer, whose name I have not heard having been taken prisoner; and I have also understood that accounts are received, that Genera lirtle was arrived at Egouinen. The detachment under General Sacken Is under- Stood to be fully adequate to keep Prince Sch « art- leuberg in check. The attempt to blow up the cathedral nf Smo- . ensko Failed, the match having gone out before it reached the mine. The fate of Marshal Nev hasnotbeen ascertained, I have the honour to'be, & c. CATIICART. St. Pclersburgh, Dec. 6. 1812. MY LORD,— 1 have the honour to transmit the report of the defeat of Victor's corps by General Coant Wittgenstein, on the 27th November. It would seem that this corps had altered its directinn from BorisoCf, and was proceeding up the left bank of the Berezina, when it was charged < by Count Wittgenstein. On the 16th, at daybreak, the Count pursued Bonaparte on a road which leads to Vilna, still upon the left batik of the Berezina. A bridge had been thrown over the river, at a place about thirty wersts from Borisoff where there - was an advantageous position for the enemy's rear- guard, and for covering the passage. In this day's march the French lost the whole of their equipages and plunder, and were vigorously and repeatedly attacked at the bridge. The position on the left bank being continually reinforced by fresh troops, was contested HI night, - when it was evacuated, Htid the bridge was destroyed as - non as the rear- guard had pawed. ' There is a cross road from this point which leads to the great road to Vilna, and it was the intention nf Count Wittgenstein to pursue, us soon as he either received pontoons, or re- established the bridge. General Flatwff had already got to the right bank, probably to BorisolT. Admiral TchichagnfT's quarters appear to have hern at no great distance, but no particular report of the distribution or movements of this part of the force, has as yet becu received, since the affair of Count Lambert. It appears, however, from the conclusion of Connt Wittgenstein's last report that he exppcts the concert and support both of the Admiral and - of Count PlatofT. Gen. Mill iradovitch was stated to have arrived at Borisoff when the last accounts came away. The head- quarters of the main army were still advancing oh a line parallel to, and to the south- ward of the main road from Smolensko to Minsk, hut considerably iu the renr Of the present operations. There are long defiles to pass on the road from BorisotFto Minsk, ns well as on that upon which Bonaparte is supposed to be marching; nnd it scarcely appears possible, that the remains nf hi! army can , et through these difficulties in presence of « o many Hoops, wilh artillery and cavalry, re- gular as well as irregular. I have the honour t.> he, & c. CATI1CART. Sf Pelersburgh, Vic. 7, 1812. M v LORn,— While ih the art of dispatching the messenger, I received from the palace a report from Admiral Tchichagoff, dated the 29th Nov. upon lite march to Ostuchaw, detailing his pro* • ceedings from the 21st November, and stating that, in concert with Counts Wittgenstein and Platoff, lie is in pursuit of the French, whose force lie estimates at seventy thousand men, including Oudinot and Victor, and which he saji is provided with cavalry and artillery. 1 have'the honour to'be, & c. CATIICART. Journal of Military Operation* from the 1th to the 16M Nov. 1812, dated Head- quarters Kopys. November 7.— Major- Genera! lioro « dini having driven the f- nemy from Laeda, pursued them with a part of his detachment as far as Bolschoi Kolo- tofskv, and with his Cossacks as far as Kocan, where they were relieved by those of the detach- ment commanded by the aide- de- camp Gen. Count Oscharofsky. The enemy lost iu his flight seven pieces of cannon, and a number of carriage*. The Geueral of Cavalry, Count Platoff, reports, under date of the Ath instant, that having on the 3d approached Smolensko, and having learnt from the inhabitants, who were quitti g it, that the enemy occupied the Fauthourgof Petersburgh, he gave immediate orders io his iroops to attack under cover of the fire of the artillery of the Don. Colonel KaysarnfT, afier having with his chas- seurs broken the barrier which the enemy had placed, vigorously pursued them into the Faux- bocrg itself, from whence they fled in alarm and disorder wilh: n the walls of the fortress, where they were exposed to a fire of grape- shot from th neighbouring heights. Whilst the Cossacks and the chasseurs were engaged in the Faoxbourg, the enemy made a sortie in two columns, wilh eight pieces of cannon and a mortar, resolutely deter- mined to repossess themselves of the Fnuxbourg. But Mtijnr- General Koiitrhinknlf with his Cossacks, atid Colonel Kaysnroff with his chasseurs, fell upon thcin and having repulsed the infantry, took their cannon. The Fatixbuurg was retaken, when night put an end to the contest. On the 4th the enemy established themselves behind the palitadnes, keeping possession of the left bank nf the Dnieper, " whilst bis columns quitted the town with preci- pitation.— Count PlatofF caused Te Drum to he fcuug iu presence of the troops, accompanied by a discharge of artillery and a hurrah of the soldiers. The enemy on quitting the town, sprung the mines which they had formed under several places • if the fortress j which set fire to the houses of the Fauxbourg of I'etersburgh, which were situated apposite the fortress. The iMde- de- Camp, General Barnn Mettersako- idsky reports, that the officer whom he had detached with three squadrons-, had discovered an enemy's column at three - vVersts from Winnisn- Lotiki. and having surrounded them, he sent the Staahs- llottmeiSter of the Hussars of the Akim- tieldt guards, wilh a proposal to lav down their amis. This commission he cxccuted wilh complete success— the number of prisoners amounted to 2,500 men. Intelligence has been received, thai the detach- ment under Count Oscbaufskv, has occupied V1 oh'tlnw after having dislodged the eMemy, Provi- . ions and forage sufficient to subsist the whole army, during ten days, were found in the place. ITead- qriarters of the army at Dabroi ( great road to Orsha). November 8.— The Aide- de- Camp, Gen. Count Oscharofsky, reports, on the till, that the French army having abandoned, on the night of the 8th, the " village of Kosan, hud marched to Dnmbrowna. and that many prisoners had been made iii their flight, of which, however, the Count could not yet fix the number, as it increasedevers moment. Head- quarters at Romanoff, November 9 — The Count Oscharofsky reports, that a detachment sent by him pursued the rear- guard of the enemy on their retreat from Kosan. The Cossacks, in following it on each side of the great road, had cut off part of it from ' Jombrowna, and regardless of the fire of grape- shot, ( hrnW themselves, together With the chasseurs, iipoathe enemy's column* killed more than a thousand men, took four pieces of cannon-, wilh the caissons laden with grape, besides a considerable uuuiber of carts, and made six hundred prisoners. Major- General Bnrosilin reports, on the 4th, that having with bis detachment driven the enemy from Dombrnwna, he had pursued him to Orsha, on which occasion he took above four hundred men and eight officers. At Dombrowna was found a small magazine of flour, oats, an,) hay. General Count Platoff reports on the , th, that, proceeding from Smolensko to Dombrowna, he had destroyed a detachment of the enemy, which, after the defeat of the French army at Krasno, had saved itself by flight, and passed over to the ight bank of the Dnieper, in order to come up again with the main body. The Count made 3,000 prisoners, among whom is the late Chief Commissary General at Smoleasko de Pttibusqiitf. Tfi a second report. General Platoff states, that, cnntiniting on he 1lh, his route to Dombrowna, he was informed that Marshal N'ey was marching with the remains of his corps to Lowbawitzch, and had been seen in the afternoon at Gnusuiroff. Having occupied this place with his Cossacks on the left, General Platoll' ordered marked batteries to be raised on the road ; and having permitted the enemy to advance, he suddenly opened upon them a tremendous fire of grape- shot, so that coufounded, and seeing it impossible to pierce through to LoubaWitzch, they threw themselves into the woods on the batiks of the Dnieper, and covering their march by chasseurs, pressed along the bank of the river until the night was far advanced ; and threw into it the four pieces of cannon they had with- them. The 8th, at about six o'clock iuthe morning, the advanced guard came up with the enemy in advance of Dombrowtia, He was again received with grape- shot uti comiog out of a forest on the road. Our Cossacks, profiting by the disorder of ( he enemy, and the well- directed fire of our artillery, attacked with the lance, killing many, and making S00 prisoners, among which was a Commissary General nnd ten Officers. Marshal Ney, seeing his total defeat, threw himself into the forests, and collecting the troops whom the attack of our Cassa'ck" had dispersed, he occupied the village of Jarouboff, where he defended himself with obsti- nacy, until night, which put an end to the combat. Nov ember 10.— Gen. Count Platoff reports, on the 9th, that during the pursuit of the enemy to Orsha he made 400 prisoners. The enemy defends the pas- sage of the river with his artillery, while he gives the town up to the flames. The Partizan Dasidnff attacked the enemy on the9that Kopvs, and killing many, made 285 prisoners, besides taking aquanlity of equipages ; passing afterwards the river by swimming, he sent various parties to Schkjolf, Staroselije, and Orsha, The Count Platoff reports, on the 0th, that the enemy had, after some resistance, been driven from Orsha, and that at one o'clock the town had been occupied by otir troops. The enemy left there 20 pieces of cannon, some provisions, and bis hospitals, in w hich were found, of officers alone, 50 persons. On the 11th the grand army halted at Lannike. November 12.— The aide- de- camp General Count OscharoflVky reports, on the 12ih, that having ar rived on the 11th at Gorhi, he had sent Maj. Rschef- skc, with the regiments of Cossacks of the Don, of Schamscheff, and 150 hussars in pursuit of the ene- my, who had just quitted the place.

After his cure had been completed and during ( he retreat of the French, a detachment of forty- seven men passed by the villages of Mlet liino and Polsiun. He Immediately assembled the peasnnts of those places, and encouraging them by his example, he killed seven of the forty- seven, and having bound with cords the fnrty remaining, he sent them with the peasants to the outposts of the Cossacks. The said Jereiaenko having by so cou rageous an action shewn his zeal for the seivice and given a proof of the spirit which characterises the Russian soldier, his highness the General Field Marshal has advanced him to the rank of a subaltern officer, and has likewise given him the badge of the military order of St. George, Proceed! ngi of the Military Operations of the Run sian Army, from the \ 3th to the 16tn November. November 13.— The Aide- de- Camp General Count Oscharoffsky, as he was proceedingon the 12th, with part of the detachment under his command, from Schkloff towards Mohilow, was informed by some of the inhabitants who lad left that place, that the enemy's troops which had remained there, had threat ened to set on fire all within their reach; in conse- quence of this information. Count Oscharottsky without loss of time, ordered on the Cossacks from Haltawa, mounted the riflemen, and arrived before night Willi his cavalry and artillery, in time to savethe town, from whence he immediately drove the enemy — thus at the same time relieving the place, and many large magazines which it contained, from the dange with which it wasthreatened. Another part of the detachment, under the order: of the Staabs- rost- ineister ot the Hussars of Guards, Natscliakin, which had been sent on the Road to Knaeschnitzi, came up with the enemy on their retreat front that place, attacked them, and took an olficer and one hundred men prisoners, putting the rest to flight, whom they pursued for six versts be- yond Knaeschnitzi.

November 11.— General Platoff Reports that on the 12th, some of the enemy's troops, which hud sepa- rated from the road to Loubavuhniz, surrendered, to the number of 800 men. The enemy's loss in pri- soners was, . indeed, so very great that he found it unnecessary to make any particular report on the occasion, as it seldom occurrcd'that he took less than a 1 " 00 prisoners cachday. Colonel Potemkin, belonging to General Millora- dovitch's van- guard, in his report of the 13th, stales, that Major. General Karpow had assembled 600 pri- soners at Zolotschina, and that at Rostel tlSey had found 100 ischitwerts of r> e.

Schefelert's report ot the 10th states, that the major partof the inerchantsot RatslafF Polosott, together with the citizens of that town, animated by the love for their country, had equipped a detachment of 100 cavalry; and having anned them with pikes, swords, and muskets, during the whole of the continuance of the military opera- tions in the government of Smolensko, they had made several excursions, in which they had had many alfairs with the enemy, with advantage to themselves, by which means thev in fact saved their town from being plundered.— The head- quarters at Krouglo. Report from the General of Cavalry Count Wittgen- stein to his Imperial Majesty, dated Siaroc lloryssoff, November 29th. Yesterday I had the honour most submissively to report to your Imperial Majesty, upon the defeat of the corps of Marshal Victor, from whom the troops of your Majssty took four cannon, twostand- ards, 67 staff and oihtr officers, and 3000 prisimers, iridepeudantly of a Considerable number in killed ami wounded. After this victory there surrendered, the General of Division Ptirthcnaut, th: General of Bri- gade, Bilier, the Chief of the Staff D'Fl erf; Genrrals Canins and Hlamont; 5 Colonels, 15 Lieutenant- Colonels, 224 Officers, and 7800 privates ; amongst these were two to hole regiments of cavalry, fully' mounted, the one a Saxon regiment, and one of Berg. 1 afterwards resolved on attacking Napoleon himself, which I did not fail to perform on the same day. The enemy approaches the passage of the Berezina in great force, and stopped there to defend it with th; greatest obstinacy, in order to save bis artillery and batgage; without being disconcerted by his great efforts, 1 drove him back the distance of three versts. Die engagement lasted the whole day. To- day I compelled linn to cross the river near Stoudenzie, where, after having passed it, he burned thebridjte; but having received pontoons from Admiral rchichagofiV I am at this moment occupied in getting them thro An on the river. 1 shall pass it immediately, and shall act in conjunction with him and General Platoff.— Yesterday we took from the enemy one field- piece, and made 1500 prisoners To- day we took 12 pieces of cannon, and a considerable number of them he cast himself into the river. I have also taken a number ot officers and men; others are continually arriving, so that 1 have not as yet been able to take any account of them ; they bring in, besides, so many carriages, belonging to Bonaparte as well as to private individuals that tbedistance of half a vcrst is covered with them, so as not to allow persons to pass either on foot or on horseback. I have been obliged, therefore, to dispatch three companies of militia to cle* ra passage only tor the troops. Upon these carriage*, most ot them lately the propeity of Moscow families, was found, besides a great booty tortile troops, a quantity of dhurch plate and other effects, which the enemy had stolen at Moscow. — Wear: occupied in collecting it all together, in order to send it to the Governor- General of Moscow. In reporting this mo^ t humbly to yoitr Imperial Majesty, I lay at the same time at your feet tile standards which I have taken from th enemy. We have lost, during these days, above three thousand men. Report of Admiral Tchichagojf, on the Road of Ostachero, on the 29th of November. Seeing the possibility of communicating directly with St. I'etersburgh, I profit of it, to make known to your Majesty all that has happened since my last report. The following day after my arrival at Minsk I reinforced my advanced guard, and ordered General Lambert to go on the side of Borisow. On the 2U of November he attacked at the break of day the re- doubts occupied by the rear. guard of General Dom- browsky, who had arrived in great haste trom Beresina to take possessiwn of it. The resistance was very great; they fouglM a long time, and with fury.— Your Majesty possesses in Count Lambert ail active, courageous, and able General, capable of surmounting every difficulty, who havirig perceived the importance of this post, in which the enemy had collected all their force to maintain themselves, decided to take it, and completely succeeded. The enemy losr two thousand men in killed, and we have made as many . prisoners. The remains of the corps of DomUowsky have been pursued and dispersed. In the mean time, whilst my advanced guard was going from Minsk to Borisow, General Ichaplitz was sent to l. embin to observe the passage of the Beresina. and Colonel l. oukowkin to take possession of every thing that the enemy had been obliged to abandon. Some detachments of Dombrowsky had really crossed tha « river; Colonel Loukowkin attacked them, and took trom them a Colonel, many Officers, three hun dred soldiers, and one colour. The passage of the river n; ar Borisow had beer, judged so important, that the enemy turned toward: itallhts attention. In consequence, Oudinot was detached to reinforce Dombrowsky, but the tete du porit established on this side, rendered ftuitless a their endeavours. The enemy, determined to force his passage, made demonstrations upon many points, and he succeeded at last in finding a very strong position, at thirteen versts trom Bonsow, where he placed a batttery o hirty pieces of cannon, and having on its Hank: marshes and heights. He effected the passage of the river under the protection of his batteries, so as to render it impossible for us to prevent it, particular! as the river, at the place where he effected his passage, was very narrow, so that the infantry crossed it on horseback. On the 27th and 28th we heard a cannonade, first the right and then on the left. The Counts Wittgenstein and Platoff approached. Communica- tions were established between us. On the i8iii 1 attacked the enemy in front, at the same time that Wittgenstein found himselfalraady engaged with the troops which defended the passage of the river on the opposite side. Some prisoners informed us that Napoleon was in person at this battle, with all his force, which amounted to about 70,000 men. The corps of Oudinot and Victor, that formed part of it, were composed of soldiers who had not suffered much, as they were still provided both with artillery and cavalry. The guard of Napoleon is likewise in tolerable con- dition. The enemy was driven back to thedistance of four or five versts, with the loss of one cannon, many officers, some hundreds of prisoners, and a con- siderable number ot killed. Lieutenant- General Sacken, whom I left in the environs of Brut, has perfectly executed my orders.— The Prince of Schwartzenberg has twice approached Slonim ; but General Sacken having attacked Regnier two days successively, forced him to retreat and join PrinceSchwartzenbcrg.

BEDFORD CAINAL. To the Printers. SIRS, |> 1IE Editor of the Political Register, once i asserted, and endeavoured to prove, that the IearneJ* i. anguage$ were worse than useless ;" but surely that Gentleman did not finish his Education at F. too, or- arrive at any Academical Honours, or he would have been as anxious to have evinced his Acquaint. • nee with those Languages as either your Cotiespon dent VEHUS or the NON. SUBSCRIBES ; but, Sir, in the Name of common Sense, of - what Utility is the Intro- duction of Latin Quotations in Argument tor or against the Bedford Boat Canal, printed in a pro- vincial Newspaper, and read only, in all Probability by a Set of Shopkeepers, whose knowledge prin cipally consists in calculating £. s. d. and the Weight and Measure of the Commodities they sell. Yet although the Arguments might, in English, hav equal Force, the Profundity of the Writer's Abilities would not be equally discerned ; bat surely such petty ostentatious Display of Learning is unbecoming sensible Man. VFRUS, the tuell meaning VERUS, has certainly been treated too harshly by his Opponents; lie has been attacked in Front by VERITAS, in the Rear bv VKRBIR, .. nd Right and Lelt by PIT COAL, and sundry other Assailants j but for his good Intentions he is entitled to my Thanks. At his Request, I waited tor the Estimate, and suspended my Judgment until read the Report ot that " ABLE AND EXPERIENCED IINDINEER, MR. HOLLAND." But, good God, Sirs 1 how egregiously have my Expectations been deceived by that Report, for in it I can find nothing " clear,'" nothing " satisfactory ;" mere Contradiction of MR Kennie, unsubstantiated by any Evidence whatever. And this is the gigantic Blow which is to annihilate one of the best devised Plans ever brought forward for the Advantage of the Town of Bedford, and this too is the Report that IUJS anticipated. If I order a Coach- maker to build me a Chaise, give him a particular Description of the one I require, and tell him to what Price 1 will go, I can anticipate the Kind of Vehicle I shall have; and mav nnt Mr. Holland's Report have heen anticipated in a similar Kay f Mr. Whitbread declared in ihe first Outset of ( lie Business, that he would not countenance or sanction the Measure until he was fully satisfied it would prove to the Interest of the Town and County— he has minutely investigated every Circumstance— he has patiently heaid every Argument that could be adduced against it— and he is firmly convinced it WILL PROVE ADVANTACEOUS. The Duke of Bedford made a like Declaration, and is now of a similar Way of thinking, tlten ought not the Opinion of these Gentlemen ( who have always evinced the utmost Zeal for the Prospe- rity of the County) supported by that zi- ell- knovjn Engineer, Mr. Rennie, to have greater Weight than that of a Person employed Jur the expiets Purpase, of oppo- sing the Measure, and so little known, that, for ought 1 know, may within these two Months have fallen from the Clouds, or tiscn from the Earth. It is difficult, in these degenerate Times, to find any Individual willing to sacrifice a little private Interest for the/> ublic C!" od, or, I am of Opinion, the present Opponents ot the Canal would be the staunchest Supporteri of the Measure, and that too, from a ' borough Conviction of its- Utility.

Garden, of the Macedonian, dated at sea, Oct. 2Sth, relating the capture of that frigate by the American ship United State ® . " A short time after day- light ( says Capt. Carden) steering N. W. by W. with the wind from the smith- ward, in lat, 29 deg. N. long. 29 deg. SOmin. W sail was seen on the lee beam, which I immediately stood for, and made her out tn be a large frigate under American colours : at nine o'clock I closed with her, ruid she commenced the action, w hich Jve relurned; but from the enemy keeping two p « in( s off the wind I was not enabled to get as close to her as I could have wished. After an hour's aclion the enemy hacked and came to the wind, and I was then enabled to bring her to close battle ; in this situation I soon found the enemy's force too supe- rior to expect success, unless some very fortunate chance occurred inour favour, ami with this hope I continued the battle to Iwo hours and ten minutes; and having the mizen- mast shot away by the board, topmasts shot away by the caps, main- yard shot in pieces, lower masts badly wounded, lower rigging all cut to pieces, a small proportion only of the foresail left to the fore- yard, all the guns oil the qtiurter- deck and forecastle disabled but two, and lilled with wreck, two also on the main- deck dis- abled, and several shot between wind and water, a very great proportion of the crew killed and wounded, and the enemy comparatively in good order, who had now shot a head and was about to place himself in a raking position, without our being enabled to return the fire, being a perfect wreck and unmanageable log; I deemed it prudeut though a painful extremity, to surrender his Ma- jesty's ship. Nor was this dreadfulalternative re- sorted to till every hope nf success was removed, even beyond the reach of chance; nor tilt, 1 trust, their Lordships will be aware, every efWt had been made against the enemy by myself, my brave officer* anil men; nor should she have been surrendered whilst a man lived on board, had she been manage- able. 1 am sorry to say our loss is very severe, 1 find by this day's muster 36 killed, three of whom lingered a short time afier ihe battle, 36 severely wounded, many of vvbom cannot recover, and 32 slightly, who may all do well. " The truly noble and animating conduct of my officers, and the steady bravery nf my crew, to the last moment of the battle, must ever render them dear to their country. My first lieutenant, Ditvid Hope, was severely wounded in the head towards ( he close of the battle, and taken below ; but was soon again on deck, displaying; that greatness of mind nnd exertion, which, though it may he equalled can never be excelled ; the third lieutenant, John Bulford, was also, wounded, but not obliged to quit his quarters ; second lieutenant Samuel Mottley and he deserves my highest acknowledgments. The cool and steady conduct of Mr. Walker, the master, was very great during the battle; as also that of Lieuls. Wilson and Magil of marines. " On being taken on board the enemy's ship I ceased to wonder at the result of the battle. The United States * s built with the scanting of a 74- gun ship, mounting thirty long 24- pounders ( English ship runs) on her main deck, and twenty- two 42- pottndei carronades, with two long iJ4- pounders on her quarter- deck and forecastle, howitzer guns in hei tops, and a travelling carrontide no her upper deck, with a complement of 478 picked men. " The enemy has suffered much in toasts, rigging, and hull above and below water; her loss in killed and wounded I am uot aware of, but I know a lieu tenant and six men have been thrown overboard." The American privateer Rapid, of 14 guns, and a complement of til men, was, on Oct. 17, captured by the Maidstone frigate, Capt. Burdctt.— Gas LONDON. THURSDAY, Dec. 31.

HOWEVER Engineering may have been im- proved, in the present Days, I think few will be disposed to deny, that Canalsareever so beneficial Ij applied to the Public, f- arvd- Owners, or Proprietors, ts when, amongst Other Benefits, tlieir Extension is o Mines, Quarfies, Stc. and are made the Means ot bringing Articles for the Purposes of Agriculture, lecessary to our Manufactories and Buildings, which before fay nearly useless in the Earth for Want of Water Carriage to convey them to their proper Mar- < ets_, ortheConsumption was very limited, from Being confined to Land Carriage. To give the Advantage of Canal Carriage tothe County of BMford, has, atTimes, engaged the Attention of several People within the , ast fifteen Years-. As it now seems seriously intended, be following Remarks are submitted to the Con- ideration of the Committee, the Land Owners, and Public:— To obtain this Object, it seems a Com- munication is necessary from the G rand Junction, commencing where it may be found most advisable, between Linford Wharf, near Nexvport- Pagncll, and a Point near I. eighton. lluzzaid, and terminating in ' he Navigation which connects the County with Lynn, thus a considerable Extent of Country, con- taining useful and beautiful Building Stone, Fullers' Earth, Stone for Lime, Chalk for Lime, Calleysand, ind, no Doubt, other Articles used in our Manu- factories. Scarcely any Track of I. and seems so deserving the Notice of the Mineralist and Engineer as the poor Lands in Bedfordshire, and none seem to have received less their Attention. So important has theToitenhoe Stone been thought, hat a Railway or Canal to the Grand Junction has been in Contemplation by a Gentleman of great Re- spectability, for the Purpose of opening a more extensive Market for that Article; and the Scheme was approved of by two Gentlemen Of great Expetience, one was the late Benjamin Outram. The intended Bedford Canal does not in its Course touch a single Article named, and will, by its Exe- cutisn, operate totheir future Exclusion, contrary to Custom. The Committee for some Reason, no doubt, have not published the Report ot the Engineer, who is Mr. Rennie, a Gentleman of the highest Respectability. Anxious that the Money this Canal will cost should be expended to the greatest public and private Advan- tage, myself with others, who have formerly con- sidered tins subject, would feel highly gratified bv seeing his Sentiments ; having the fullest Confidence that he would not give them, without examining the Space of Country alluded to, and without which, neither him nor any other Man is competent to givean Opinion.

Stratford, Dec. 20th, 1S12. 11 their power to excite discontent and despond ency.— But they were mistaken— the Russian notions of patriotism are very different indeed; these semi- btirbarians are so zoholly barbarous as to think that every may ought to unite against the enemies of his country, and they have acted upon that opinion: it is no wonder, therefore, that they are no great favourites with those persens whose feelings and whose conduct are so essentially different. By the united and active energies, unshaken fidelity, and patient perseverance, of those brav men," so frequently spoken of in the most contemptuous mariner, has the talisman of llona- parte's power been broken, - and Europe rescued from thraldom. That spark of resistance which the tyrant's unprincipled ambition first kindled in Spain, has been fanned into a flame which will not be extinguished till it involves him in de- struction. ' The extremities of the Continent already blaze, and within no very distant period, the space between will feel and feed the spreading conflagration. ' The physical effects of the retreat from Moscow, and of the victories of our allies, are in themselves of infinite importance, and calculated to awaken the expectation of the best results; but they are nothing > 0 t^ e moral conse quences which must issue from the disasters and calamities that have overtaken the ambitious projects of the usurper. ' To be safe, his power must be entire.; the circle must he perfect, or it is in danger ot" sudden annihilation. Thus the Continental system, which, if completely mastered, laid Europe in chains at his feet, is unavailing and nugatory, while one State may be found upon whose independent. Monarch those chains cannot be imposed. This destroys the whole, and erects that standard round which other nations will rally, and defy the despotic designs of the enemy upon the common rights of mankind. Bonaparte is no longer the terror of Europe: even in his own capital, he slinks into the second person, and appears to rest his hopes upon the Son born to him by the daughter of Austria. This is a singular phenomenon, and strongly marks the humiliation and despondency which the Tyrant suffers; and if his defeat has robbed him of spirit, what spirit must it have imparted into the population of the countries which have so long groaned beneath bis yoke? Much as we may triumph over the extent of the losses which lie has sustained, losses which years cannot retrieve, we build yet more firmly 011 the change which has thus been wrought on the minds of men; audit is to the latter, more than to the former, that we look for the utter and final overthrow of our direst enemy. French Papers to the 21st have been received in town. On the preceding day Bonaparte gave audience to the Senate and Council of State, when both these bodies presented" addresses of congra- tulation to him on bis return. The speeches of these subservient bodies are of the most servile kind. His own subdued tone in reply, and their protestations of fidelity, and offers of the greatest efforts and sacrifices to perfect his glorious plans, are ample demonstrations of the severity of the blow which the tyrant has received : a blow in- deed so staggering to his power that it would he absurdity to attempt to conceal it, even with all his controul over the Press in France. ' Two bun dred thousand families, at least, have lost rela- tives by death or captivity, anil their tongues alone will be sufficient to spread the deep disaster. Letters received from the French coast, as well as from Paris, notice reports of the severe indis- position of Bonaparte, from the extraordinary fatigue he has lately undergone, and the disap pointment he has sustained by the utter failure of his projects against Russia. It is a remarkable fact, that though he reached Paris at half- past eleven at night on the 18th ult. no notice what- ever was taken of his arrival, either in the Moni- tear, or any of the minor Journals of the 19th.— I11 the Moniteur of the 20th, it was mentioned pery briefly, but without remark of any kind, either on the state of his health, the cause of his journey, or'any other subject. On the same day his arrival was proclaimed by thd accustomary discharges of artillery, after having been kept for 24 hours a StateSecret. Up to the latest accounts from Paris he had not appeared in public, and his indisposition was considered as of a very seriou nature. This morning Quebec Papers to the 20th of November were received. They calculate the American trmops oil the frontiers at much higher" than they have ever yet been estimated, stating them at upwards of 4J>, 000, but it does not appeal that any military operations of importance had taken place since the date of the preceding advices. The following extract from the Montreal Gazette of Tuesday, Nov. 16, shews the result of the attack 011 Kingston:--" The great battle, so much spoken of in town, as having taken place a short distance above Kingston, turns out to be seven armed American vessels, which appeared off that place, and bombarded it during 15 hours. The only damage sustained was the Royal George being struck three times, and having one of her crew killed. Seeing they could not effect a land- ing, they set off to Sacket's harbour." Bonaparte's Senate tells him that his eagles were perched on the towers of Moscow; fortunately they have not been permitted to roost there. NORTHAMPTON'.

SEE yonder stream, how calmlv gay, Along the verdant hanks it flows j And winding on its devious way, Jlisperses blessings as it goes, liy many a valley, fair and green, It smoothly glides in gentle pace, Where oft the hind of art is seen To give a soften'd, richer grace. By tracts too, rugged, wild, and harsh, Jli changeful course the current takes | And by the treacherous putrid marsh Its way with laey dulness breaks. Strong emblem of Ihe life of Man 1 So varying pass his fleeting days :— Sportive and gav is Childhood's span, As you fair fountain sparkling plays— And light too runs youth's rapid race, Willi mirth that smiles, and health that cheers^ Gilded bv Hope the length'ning space, A scene in fairy land appears;— But manhood's saddening cares will rise, Time's heavv stream move slowly on ; And age and suffering mingle sighs O'er troubles come, o'er pleasures gone I— Alternate dawn on every class Days to rejoice, aud days to mourn ; As eddying winds that filful pass. Time's ebbing sand sees each return. Let man tile scenes of life review, But musing mark the closing year, If part mi wings of gladness flew, Part was bedew'd with Sorrow's tear. In this mix'il state, one only sourcc Of true, unfading joy is giv'n ; Certain, immortal in its course, It springs, and must be sought, from Heav'n— The earthly stream goei on to glide Till lost its waters in the sea; And steals along Time's rolling tide, Till swallow'd in Eternity— When bolh at length shall cease to flow, No question comes how one has moved ; But man, what time has yvrought, must show, And answer too, if unimproved— Be then the Emblem's moral this! No talent here is vainly lent; Eternity lo meet in bliss, Time must be prized, and Life well spent. Oh Perceval! time's pictur'd stream Brings back to thought illy awful fate ; Bright, as on that calm river gleam The sun's rich rays, appear'd thy state. Jlow quick, ala:, lh' illusion broke ! One moment's tempest shipwreck'd all; Sudden the flash, most dire the stroke; We saw, and, shuddering, wept thy fall. Long, long, bless'd shade, each breast must give To yvorlh so lost its bitterest sigh ; Thy life — may teach us how to live, Thy death— to be prepared to die.

From tbe LONDON GAZETTE, of Dec. 26. Admiralty Office, Dec. £ 6. Copy of a Letter from Admiral the Right Hon. Sir John Borlase Warren, Bart. K. B. Commander in Chief of his Majesty's ships and vessels on Ihe North American station, to John Wilson Croker, Esq. dated at Halifax, 18th Nov. 1812. Sir— I beg leave to transmit copies of letters from Captain Whinyates and Captain Sir John Beresford; the former giving an account of the capture of his Majesty's brig Frolic, by the Ame- rican ship sloop of war Wasp, after a bard con- tested action; and the latter, acquainting me with the re- capture of the Frolic, and of his having at the same time taken the Wasp, both of which Were conducted to Bermuda by the Poic- tiers; from whence I shall send further particulars for their Lordships' information the moment I can learn them. I have the honour to be, & c. ( Signed) JOHN BORLASE WAP. RTN His Majesty's ship Poicliers, at Sea, Oct. 23. Sir— It is with the most bitter sorrow and dis- tress I have to report to your Excellency the cap tine ofhis Majesty's brig Frolic, by the ship Wasp, belonging to the United States of America, on the 18th instant.— Having under convoy the home- ward- bound trade from the Bay of Honduras, and being in lat. 30 deg. N. and 61 deg. W. oil the night of the 17th, we were overtaken by a most Violent gale of wind, in which the Frolic, carried fiwav her maiiivard, Inst her topsails, and sprung the main tup- yard. On the morning of the 18th, as we were repairing the damages sustained in the Storm, and re- assembling the scattered ships, a suspicious ship came ill sight, and gave cfeace to the convoy. The merchant ships continued their voyage before the wind under all sail; the Frolic dropped astern and hoisted Spanish colours, in order to decoy the stranger under her guns, and to give time for the convoy to escape.—' About ten o'clock, both vessels being witlliu hail, we hauled to the wind, and the battle began. The superior fire of our guT< s gave every reason to expect its speedy termination ill our favour, but the gaffa head- braces being shot away, and tin ir being no sail on the main- mast, the brig became uiiinariaj! able, and the enemy succeeded in talcing a position to rake her, while she was unable to bring a gun to bear. After laying some time exposed to a most destructive fire, she fell with the bowsprit lietwixt the enemy's main and mizen rigging, still unable to return his fire. At length the enemv boarded', and made himself master of the brig, every individual officer being wounded, und I lie greater part of the men either killed or wounded there not being 20 persons remaining unhurt. Although I shall ever deplore the unhappy issue of this contest, it would be great injustice to the merits of the officer; and crew if f failed to repori that their bravery and coolness are deserving of every praise; and I am convinced, if the Frolic had not been crippled in the gale, 1 should hav to make a very different report to your Excellency. — The Wasp was take n, and the Frolic re- captured the same day, by his Majesty's ship the l'oictiers •— Being separated from them, I cannot transmi' at present a list of killed and wounded. Mr Charles M'Kay, the First Lieutenant, and Mr f? t phens, the Master, have died of iheir wounds. I have. the honour to be, Sic. T. WIUNVAILS. To the Right Hon. Sir J. B. Warren, Bart. & c. Hi-: Mnjentys ship Poictiers, at Sea, Oct. 28. Sir— I have the honour to acquaint you, that hi Majesty's ship under my command has this da captured the American sloop of war Wasp, of 20 guns, Capt. Jacob Jones, and re- taken his Ma- jesty's brig Frolic, Capt. Wfiinyates, which she captured, after an action of 50 minutes. I hat- thought it my duty to collect the Frolic's convoy and to see them in safety to Bermuda. ' Hie conduct of Captain Wliiiiyates, who 1 regret to say is wounded, and of Irs crew, appears to have hten so decidedly gallant, that I have been induced to continue him in command of the Frolic, until your pleasure is known.

Mr. Charles Grant, jun. of Waternish, on being elected for the Boroughs of Inverness, Nairn, & c. addressed his constituents in a most eloquent and impressive speech, of which the following is an extract: — " Willingly, Gentlemen, would I now close the series of events which made the last session so me- morable, but more yet remains. That session na » stained with innocent Mood,— blackenrd by a crime rarely known io our annals. The first olficer of the crown, engaged in ihe most sacred functions of his ministerial capacity, that of meeting the- repre- sentatives of the people, fell, in the very sanctuary of parliament, by lite hand of r. ti assassin. You joined in that very cry of horror which hurst from all quarters of the kingdom. You laid your duti- ful sympathies at the foot of the throne. Antl never were sympathies more truly excited, never ere tears more just than those which, flowed over the grave, of Mr. Perceval. Equally to be admired is a minister and a man, w hile the purity of his rinciples. his blameless and exemplary life, the armlh of his affections, the gentleness of his heart, he ardour of his charity, peculiarly fitted him for | the sheltered scenes of domestic happiness,— the dignity of his intellect, the keenness of his pene- tration, the justness of his views, his loyalty to the constitution, his ardent patriotism, his unimpeaclr- ble virtue, his matchless intrepidity in the cause of duty, signally pointed him out for that lofty sphere, o which he was elevated. Who can forget with bat. magnanimity he rose in defence of the crown, lien Ihe crown seemed to be lefl without anv de- fence! Who ran forget that the exigency of the isis, that test of real genius, before which lillle men sink, and great men become themselves, seemfil to inspire him with talents and energies, eveu be- yond those of his ortlinarv range— while lie pro- tected the throne from violation ; while with filial solicitude he watched over the sick couch of his Sovereign; while lie shielded that venerable head from the shafls of faction and malignity ; while he opt at bay a host of opponents, not more formi- dable for numbers, than for ability and resolution; hus at the same lime satisfying the claims of hu- manity, and the sterner dictates of justice, nhey- ng his affections and his reason, and performing at mice in every part, his duty as a son to a father, as a subject to liis King, as a citizen to the com- monwealth. Who can forget that eloquence, not perhaps of the higlie t order, yet distinguished by raits of greatness; Hot perhaps measured iu its inarch, nor nurtured ill the shady spaces of philo- ophv, yet keen, active, penetrating, admirably fitted for combat, pliable in its movements, invln- inle in dehate, triumphant in reply—. that elo- uence, which, yvithout courting the flowers of incy, was yet sometimes elevaled to a sublime height by the mere force of inward sentiment, by tlie intense conviction of a generous, high souled prin- iple? Well do I remember the indignant tone in which, but a few nights before his death, he as- serted the cause of the Constitution ; when in allu- iou lo the disturbances which have disgraced Eng- land, in a speech literally carried along by the ac- clamations of an admiring audience, he reprobated he opinion of those who recommended delay in the use of coercive measures; when he exclaimed, Shall we await to sec who is the next victim of assassination ?," Gentlemen, his murderer was then in Ihe House of Commons. Those words were at tlyit moment ringing in the ears of him who was eslined to make them prophetic. Thai cause of lory is closed, but though he is gone, he has left behind hiir. an example which posterity will not willingly forget.— He has, above all, lefl to every statesman, a striking lesson how much public virtue embellished and sanctified by private excel- eiice s and how truly he consults his fame, who in he first instance consults only his conscience. ' Forgive me. Gentlemen, if I have detained you oo long round that tomb ; a tomb made sacred by h excellence, and by the griefs of a whole peo- ple; and round which the virtuous life of that great ratio, and the circumstances of his death, have con- pired to throw a lustre as of a martyrdom."

All I his and more did Bonaparte suffer on his re- treat from Moscow, but not like Anthuny, with a soldier's patience, No ! This modern Xerxes, when dangers star'd him in the face, impatient with rage, vexation, and disappointment, lie abandoned all, and took a rein- deer's flight, leaving behind him, as a precious Legacy lo Ihe small remnant of his deluded Army, those " frightful Calamities" which his slili more affrighted Soul compelled him to cry out against— base and treacherous General I Afiei Ihe many specious Promises of personal Support thou, like a cow ardtliief, disturbed al midnight hour earnest lurking Home, afraid lo tell thy flattering Dignitarifs, that Ihou fledett through Fear:— Arch Fiend of Tyranny I thou canst not blush— Remor. e thou hast none; e'l.- e nviuld Ihe Blood of 250,000 Souls w liich thou ledest out to perish, for thy ambi- tions Purposes, have crimsoned thy pale Cheeks.

Brave Russia we owe thee innch— the World at large still owes thee more : for thou hast taught it how to conquer or to die. The Sacrifices which the Inhabitants of those snowy Regions have so cheer- fully made, and Ihe cruel Losses which Ihey have so undeservedly sustained, claims for them the Admi- ration of all Distinctions. Britain at all Times ready to assist and relieve tbe distressed, ever seek- ing for opportunities to commiserate the Miseries of others, lias laudably adopted the Means of present Help. Added to the Grant of Parliament, Sub- scriptions are opened, and a general Spirit of Cou- tribuiion pervades throughout, yvhich we ardently hope will eventually raise a Sum not unworthy the Acceptance of Ihe Russian Monarch, in Aid to that Relief, w hich is due to his suffering Subjects, thou- sands of whom are now left homeless and destitute, by a ferocious Invader, who, like a relentless flame, devoured their all. The present Season is peculiarly adapted to Acts of Benevolence ; and when we duly feel for the Distresses of our suffering fellow Craa- lures at Home, let us not shut up our Bowels of Mercy to the infinitely more aggravated distress of those Abroad. There is no belter Method of eomra al the general Feelings of the People than by County Meetings: here the Heart expands itself in Acts of mutual Sensibility.

HAYING experienced so much Benefit from your PATENT ANTISCORBUTIC DROPS, without Ingratitude I cannot let it remain unknown to yourself and the Public. 1 was sadly alflicteu witli the Scurvy in my Legs, yvhich for two Years gra- dually became worse, till I had above 409 Holes in them, above- 20 of which were much broader than a Shilling. ' My State being known to a humane Gentleman, he informed me of a Case very similar to mine: the Person had been confined to Bed the greatest Part of two Years, and by taking a few small Bottles of your Drops, was soon cured. By his Recommendation 1 was induced to give them a trial, and to my great Surprise and Comfort, 1 soon found my Sores healed, and after taking three small Bottles 1 could do my Work yvithout Inconvenience. To prevent the Re- turn of the Disease, 1 take about one small Bottle each Y'ear, yvhich has fully succeeded to my Wishes ; and I remain your obliged humble Servant, THOMAS KENNARD. Witness, Jos.

The following Case is a strong Proof of the supe- rior Efficacy of these Drops:— An Infant, aged four Years, the Son of Mr. Bunutt, Miller, of Whitchurch, had a violent Scorbutic liruption all over his Body, particularly the Face, insomuch that a Swelling on the Side of the Nose, the Size of a Pigeon's Egg, entirely closed one liye, and much affected the other. Having had ail the Medical Assistance possible for eighteen Months without Relief, he was induced, through Recommendation, to try these Drops, which had the desired Effect; and in three Weeks the Child was perfectly cured, the Sight of the Eye restored, and has continued in perfect Health ever since. This Infant had been inoculated for the Covv- Pox, about three Months prior tothe Appearance of the Eruption. Many other remarkable and well. attested Cures, which are too long for Insertion in an Advertisement, may be seen in the Bill of Directions round eachBottle. — Be particular in asking for Tyce's Antiscorbutic Drops.
