My Loud—l arrived here this morning, and have now the honour of transmitting to your Lordship the Bulletin of the operations of the day befifre yesterday , Which have been attended with the most important results, ?? mi the side of Torgau. It is understood that Bonaparte has taken the command of the army aiding again: I Glm wa! Blucher, the latter of whom has moved from Laub.au to Gorlitz; but it may be equally (he intension of the former to act in conjunction with the corps at Torgau ag.tins i this army, and it is necessary to be prepared for trieii an event. It is nnd rsiood (h it the heml-quartcrs will be continued in this place i. . ;ow ; but the troops harp been moved Em •* a!, awl six thousand Swedish loops have b n plat ..I under the orders of General Bulow, in order to ift v. irli his corp. » The i rincr [Go al t l aoJ’crred. his head-quarters to Rubenstein mi the 4th of lais month. At (ho moment w hen l.is Royal Highness had commer.c the left side of the river, had suddenly rein rul'd into ids eatrcnclnnvuts of I'enchel and Tragun. in advance of Witirnbtirg. This sudden return afforded a presumpticn, either that he intended to attack the combimd army in their passage across thb Elbe, or to make a rapid ir.aid. open Berlin. The Prince Royal »l. .icned the pace of Lis troops, and announced that it should take place the following day : two battalions, a Swedish and a Prussian^ Were dispatched to Ro'-lau, under (he ord rs of Lieutemtnf-Colouei H<;!?t. Aide-de-Camp of his Boy il Highness, in order to collect ¦all materials necessary iprlhe coiftfruction of abridge. The reporls'of the yut-potts announced every moment, that (In eltemy’s a’.-niy was inarching upon Zahne. This post; occupied by the corps of General Dobschutz, belonging to the corps d’armecof Genera! Count iwiertf.zein, was at-acked by a very superior force, on the 4th <>f September, in the aftern'oo‘n,*autf maintained its ground with great bravery. * . The enemy having been repulsed in several attacks, re. entered his en?rencbmcnts.bcforc.\Vit(enburg* Next day, the s(h of September, most murderous attacks were renewed against Zahne, and in snite of the courage displayed by Genera! Dybsrhutz', wi(f» the troops under fds orders, tha( position was carried. The same was the ease, after an olnfhiate resistance, with respect to the post 6f Sepia, orcnpivJ byjiie. corps of Tauentzein. The reports ot the country people, ‘of the otif-postS, add of secret a p nfs, announced positively that the enemy was taking the route of Torgau. Those accounts came in every hour, o iy one single person brought word'that thiMmf'my intended to proceed to Juterboch. Tiie Prince Royal set out on the Oth of September at three o’clock iii th -morning,'ffom Rubenstein, and col. lected the !jwedisli,dnd Russian armies upon the heights Lobessen. JHs Royal Highness was waiting the reports of General Tauentzein, whom he thought farther advanced, when he received an account from General Bulow" announcing that the whide army of the enemy was in full march upon Juterhoch. The Prince Royal ’ordered him to attack immediately the flank and rear of the enemy before, General Fanentzein, who defended the approaches of the town, should be overwhelmed by numbers. The Swedish army, who had been marching upwards of two German miles, pro'cii ded to juterboch, which was yet dis. tant three German wiles, aed was followed by, the Russian army, with the exception of the advanced guard under the orders of Count Worrttfzvw, and of (hd corps of General Cxernidi-tf, which continued before-Wit ten burg. The cannonade and musqnetry began immediately between the Prussian t roops and the army of the enemy. The Russian and Swedish edrps, after their forced marches, were obliged to halt a moment, in order to form in the order of battle. The Piussian army, at most forty thousand men strong, sustained, in the mean while, with a courage truly . heroic, the repeated eiforts of seventy thousand of the enemy, supported by two hundred pieces of camion. The struggle was unequal and inurdyeo is. 'i h.Prussian troops, however, were not disconcerted even for one moment, and if some battalions were yield for an iiutant the ground which they had gainevya.. was only for tlic purposgof re-oCQipyingit themoment after. Wliilst this was passing seventy battalions of Russians and wedes, ten thom aud hopse'bf both nations, and an hundred and fifty pieces of artillery advanced in columns of attack, leaving intermediate spaces for deploying. Four thousand Russian and Swedish cavalry bad advanced in full speed to support some points whither the enemy* principally directed his attacks. Their appearance began to check hirti, and the appearance of the columns did the rest. The fate of the battle was instantly decided. —The enemy’s army beat a retreat, the cavalry charged them with a boldness resembling fury, and carried disorder into their columns, » hich retreated with grSat precipitation upon ttfb route yf Dahme. The enemy’s force was composed of four corps d’armee —thirc of Marshal Duke of Reggio, of Generals Bertrand aniLßegnier, and of that of the Duke of Padua, and of from three to four thousand Polish troops, foot and horse ; the whole under the command of the Marshal Prince of Moskwa. The result of this battle, which was fought near.the village of Dounewitz, by the name of which it will be called, was already, yesterday morning, five thousand prisoners, thrfee standards, from five and twenty -to thirty pieces of cannon, and upwards of two hundred ammunition waggons.—The field of battle, and the road over which the enemy passed, are strewed with dead and woun-.kd, and with a quan'ity of arms; 6COO of the former have already been collected. Vigorously pursued, the enemy, who appeared wifljng to proceed to Tpigan, w ill not reach the Elbe before he has suffered losses yet considerable. So early ••y yesterday evening, Gen. obeser, who had been ordered to proceed with jive thousand men from Luckau upon Dahme, attacked in tl.af (own, where the Prince de la Muskwa. and the Dakes ol Reggio and of Padua hud taken up their quarters, part of ti:e enemy’s army that inten'did Itfg'o to Dreidci, and made two thousand five hundred prisoners. Major Helwig, With five hundred horse, advanced upon Sweinjfz and Heit;., berg, and attacked a column of.thc enemv in (he nig'n, taking 600 pri'om rs and eight pieces, of c.HifSim. .Gru. Orouck, at (he head of his cavalrv, bis made upward; of on.e thousand | risoners, and taks-n ‘weial pierts of cannon. 'l’he ItghtMroops were every i o.nent hri:igHi i ' in more; and G .n.

Viem;tv > !y,-.ale ti .it the enemy ha* lost, up to tins moment, in kilied, wounded ::’d prisoner,, from sixteen to eighteen thousand n< i, more than sis y pieces of cannon, add fottr hundred ammiinitimi wa.p-ons. The loss of tlje enemy in killed and wounded must have been immense ; half of the escort of the l i n e of de la Moskwa was killed; Marshal Duke de R » l amounts to between four aud five thousand men, in killed and wo nul.d. However, the results of theday ought to contribute to the consolation of every true patriot, w ho will find the triumph of the cause of his Country insured by the death of (h-s.brave iii. u. The Swedish and Russian troors leave lost little. A solemn Te Dcum has (his tD ; been ck; ant 'd in even corps, of the army, for the adv an luges which hoe bemi gained by (be combined forces since the commencement of hostilities. Among the prisoners are a number of Saxons, who h.ivc requested permission to form themselves into a Saxon I .pgion, to light in behalf of th • Indept nrlence of the Sovereigns, ami of the liberty of Germany. The Priucw Royal Iws complied with their oIL-r, persuaded that rhe [ ,!.'iotion of these brave men will prove satisfactory to j liiv Allied Powers. Imperia! HeaJ.quarter?, Toplits 1 Sept. My Lotto, —1!: ¦ Emperor Alexander arrived at Prague on the Ihth ultimo. The greater part of the Russian army in Silesia, and a corps of Prus ims moved into Bohemia on (he llth and 12th ultimo, and formed a junction with the Austrian army on the 17tfi and following days. On the iStfr, the Austrian army, Ctcept the corps al. ready on the.frontier, passed in review before the Emperors ami the King of Prussia, near Jungfern Tignitz. On the 22(1 the wht>Je of the allied army passed the frontier into Saxony, in four columns, by Peterswalde, Altenberg, Marimiberg, and to the left of the last-named place, Count AV iltgcnslein, on the right, having met Gouvion St. Cyr, and disposted him twice on the frontier, attacked him with the bayonet iu the lines of Perna, and seized that post the same evening. The 23d the several columns moved towards the right to concentrate.. The. Imperial bead-quarters being the 21st at Coinotau, the 22d,at Zablitzj and the 23d at Mit Seida. The 24th they were moved to Reichstadt, near Dippoldswaldc. ’ The 25th, at three in the afternoon,’tlfb heads of all the columns were behind the heights which surround Dresden on the left bank of the ElhC. The out-posts wore driven in, and>the defences reconnoitred. The city was evidently out of reach of being carried by a coup-de-main without much loss, and as there was no object to commit so great a sacrifice, it was determined not to attempt it, and the army encamped. On the 26th, hie enemy, under cover of their batteries endeavoured to regain' (heir out-posit, which occasioned a cannonade and firing which kitted all the day; towards evening the Austrians stormed a redoubt and spiked the ordnance, and some attacks were made w ith a view to provoke the enemy, and it opportunity favoured, to follow him into the town. On die 27 th, the weather, which bad for several days been extremely wet and cold, bveame uncommonly thick and bad, and it rained w ithout intermission for more than 24 hours, with many heavy showers. The enemy shewed himself In mudl greater force, several large masses of infantry appeared upon his right, supported by artillery, and by attacks from the centre, which was protected by the works. This menace ow the Austrian left beyond PLtien, to. wards the vale of Thaiaud, was not formidable, and was opposed by a sufficient number of Austrian troops; but in the middle of the day reports arrived that Pe;na was reoccupied in force, and that Gen. Blucher, who had been engaged five times in six days, two of which were general actions, one in presence of Bonaparte on the Bobeh, and one in which he had taken Marshal Macdonald’s baggage, had -fallen back to Jauer. At thesalnc time large colutrins moved out of the town, and formed masses to attack the right, as if to turn it, and to cover a moveiu. iit to thekit behind the Elbe. This had the appc.i.ranc.r of tfrir eimny' declining the comhat on the Leipzig or Eiftrt roads, and moving to his left to gain the Bbliemlin live, and it was resolved to make a flank march imni li it «y, in live co. lumns, by the right, to reach (he important passes iu that direclion before him, and to ciioo-e a field of battle iu Bohemia, instead yf one towards the old ground of Lutten, to which it was not certain that he would advance. This day produced several severe partial actions, in which the enemy had many men kiHid'and made prisoners in charges of cavalry, and it was expensive to both sides by the continued cauno i de and heavy hrt* of musketry. I'he ground, which is deep clay in many places, bcctyne so v.. t that neither ir.fs.iiir, nor cava'.y could move without difficulty, and ordnance and .ill carriages sunk to the axic-frees. Th*' Emperor was passing along the front cf the line towards the ri-tht where an attack was ordered, aud had stoppe'.l for a moment to direct the. movement of some Rusfim la ; alums, on a ground within reach i f tie cross lire of two Friuch batteiics, wlku Gen.

There had been several severe engagements, and as one that strikes us as being particularly brilliant and decisive against the enemy, we remark the battle of Dennevitz, which took place about the 7th Sept—this action was obstinately contested on both sides, the French force was commanded by Marshal Ney, under whose orders were the corps of the Dukes of Reggio and Padua, and Gen. Regnier, amounting in the whole to 70,000 men; which number was opposed by an inferior force of Russians, Prussians and Swnlos; nevertWess they remained masters or the field of combat, and occasioned the enemy a loss of IS,OOO men, 50 pieces of cannon, and 400 ammunition waggon.

He distinctly stated his terms in the proposal made to the French Emperor before the termination qf the Armistice; and even now, or at any time, if Napoleon should feel it his interest to acquiesce in those terms, the Court of Vienna will persevere in them Those therefore who indulge the speculation of seeing Bonaparte driven from the throne of France, or even of seeing the French dominion restored to its former limits, calculate without their host. We own, shat we ai>‘ so anxious for the restoration of peace to the afflicted world, that we should be content, as we have uniformly said, to see it accomplished on the condition of preserving the actual independence of those poyvers which arc now nominally so; and to bring the best securities that are practicable for its pennanancy. '1 hose persons have not proh ted from the experience of the last 20 years, who encourage the hope of restoring the House of Bourbon, because Bonaparte has met with a reverse of fortune, or because he may be ultimately overpowered. If he were extinct, our Allies would not fight for the Bourbons. Sept. 28.—There is no arrival from Germany this morn, ing, and therefore we have no means of ascertaining whether the Heligoland account of the evacuation of Dresden on the 16th, betrue or false. Military men say that it is to bcegpectvd rather than tube wished. For if Bonaparte commits the fault with which he reproached Mack, of shutting himself up in a large city, he will cut liiiwsch ofi at once from Iris resources, and from (he Rhine, and sup. plies will be obtained with the greatest difficulty.—We expect therefore, that the next arrivals will bring us accounts of his having quitted Dresden and the line of the Elbe. And the necessity o» h>s doing so sedmrd to be i;.._ mediatc, the Crown Frince threatening (,> throw himself in his rear. Nay, the following Heligwiaud letter would persuade us (hat his Royal Highness had actually got to Leipsic, and joined the Austrians ; — u Heligoland, Sept. 23. —We have very rceeift advices from the adjacent and it seems'that the project of the Crown i’riucc to form a junction with the Austrians at Lvipzic, has beeit realised. By this expedient the supplies of the Grund Army of Napoleon will be cut off, ¦out his communication with France intercepted.—The Cruwu Prince has crossed the Elbe at VVittenburg 111 per. sun, and Count WahftodeQ at Domitz—van Damme is. (ravelling towards Siberia. Several of the Volunteer corps, we understand, han had uievtiugs for the par|>ose ot considering the propriety j of ofiering their services tojlo garrison duty, in the room of such corjis as Goyernmcvt may think it expedient to dispatch to the continent. PRUSSIAN EDICT for the LEVY’-EN-MASS, &c. [From 'the Berlin Gazette oj Ju'j/ 31:] M e I'rederick W i liam, by the Grace of God, King of Prussia, Ac. Leholding with satisfaction the perseverance and distinguished bravery with which our army has sustained until the present moment its struggle for our country, as well as the numerous eflorts and sacrifices by •which our faithful subjects have with the greatest emulation contributed in every manner to its defence, and 10 obtain the great results for which this struggle has been undertaken; we have firm confidence, that this public spirit, which has been manifested by all with so mu ch glory, w ill never cool; and we boild upon it principally our hope of success in our just cause, and of the yernument and solid establishment of all States, particularly that of Prussia. M fc also perceive w-ith pleasure the promptitude and zeal with which the Landwclu* has been organised, and the Lcvy-en-mass carried into execution; and* behold with gratitude the attachments to our person, and to our conn, try, by which the Prussian nation is particularly distin. guished. In doing justice to these sentiments, we believe it to be our duty not to demand more efforts and sacrifices than necessity may exact, iu order that business may suffer the least possible interruption, as upon that depends so essentially the welfate of our faithful subjects. We command them, in respect to the Levy-en-mass, enjoined by the edict of the 21st April of the present year, as follows •— Art 1. The Lcvy-eu-Mass sjiall continue and be enforced as already ordered ; as the patriotism, however, whiefi. has been generally manifested indices us to think that every citizen capable of serving is filled with an anxious desire to defend the country in case of danger, and will cheerfully obey the first summons to take up arms, if infirmities and ord age do not prove obstacles to fulfilling so honourable a duty, wfe have made the following modifies* tiQns:’ I 2. There shall be formed out of the Lcvy-en-Mass a Reserve, which being kept constantly at its full complement, may be sufficient to complete promptly the Landwehr. A particular ordinance w ill regulate the organization of tjiis Reserve. 3. Moreover, in the country and in the towns which shall not contain 300 men fit for the service of the Levyen-Mass, one-third of this number shall hold themselves ready, alternately, during qrte week, to enter in case of need on immediate service in mounting guard, and in fulfilling all the military atid police functions that the Magistrates may require. 4. In the large cities where business is less compatible with the military service, and in which they may find more than 300 men fit for the service of the Levy-en. Mass, there shall be formed of the one third which shall remain when the men engaged for the Landwehr shall be deducted, some permanent companies or battalions of citizens, who will make part of the Landwehr, but whose duty will Iwi confined to the defenceof thc city. In those places where guards of citizens already exist, they will enter into those companies or battalions, 6. The Lcvy-en-Mass, as well as the companies and battalions of arquebussiers and of burgess guard, will remain under the immediate orders of (heir respective commanders; but they will lik wise be under the control of the magistrates of the police of the place or district. 8. The Ministers of Justice, without exception, as well as the Functionaries of the Police and of the Communes, with the exception of Provisional Councillors, will remain in the country on the approach of the enemy; but it is forbidden them to take any oath to obey him. All the other superior authorities, particularly all the administrative authorities, will retire: it is expected, however, that they will not withdraw until the last moment. 9. The Lcvy-en-Mass will be exorcised and trained every Sunday and Holiday, and they will meet three evenings in each week for a like purpose. 10. The evacuation of a place, and the devastation of a district, shall not be carried into execution without particular orders from the Military Governments in case those measures shall bo judged necessary. In conclusion, it is understood that it is the duty of every individual to deprive the enemy as much as possible of all means of subs’stencc. We'partictrlarly recommend to our faithful subjects the observance of the above articles, and to keep in mind, that zeal yvhen not regulated by discretion, is prejudicial to. th® cause it is intended .to serve.
