According to accounts from Laufynne the Patriots, after entering the Pafs-de-Vaii-l, fnccceded in defeating the mam body-;of th- army -of the uo-, vernment : on tbe 4'h ititt, advanced as ar as Yverden, and ,on the Tame day took pofleffion of Moudon, wthin a few miles of Lanfan ne. Thefe'fucceircs of the Patriots Itruck fuch terror into e Government, that they were on the int of flyintr to Geneva, when Citizen Rapp, Aid-de-Camp to Buonaparte, arrived with the . declaration of the Chief Conful. , which was ' received with ' warm gratitude,' and on being com. rhurncated Jo Bachmann, the General of ibc Patriotic Army, heconfented . to impend -nouiiiiics until uc rcceivcu further orders, from Berne.

DcDiities were immediately lent c.t to 1 , that place, -to learn the determination of the Diet, and Mr. Rapp confented to wait their return to Berne. In the mean time, the truce continued, and the zeal of the patriotic troop appear to have confiJerably rr jaxed, in confequence of the active interference pf France. Should they attempt any rdHlancc tothcimpcri ous mandate, an army of 40,000 Frertch, under the orders ot Gen. Ney, will im mediately enter the Swifs territory : and as this force will be fupported by 40- Rulfia and Pruflia, with refpeft to Mai ta, being (till looked to by the Brium miniftry as a preliminary meafure of ne ceHity to'the final evacuation of that if, land by our troops. BefiJes we hardly think that Miniilers have any inclination to interfere in a bunnels thai might lead ta a general renewal of hollilities, the more efieciall as, to: all appearance, they would receive but little encourage ment in tne enterprise irom tne preva. ling fpirit of the people, wjiofe indiffsr-j ertce towards the concerns of foreign nations,' cannot be better exemplified than in the; total failure of the propofed (ublcription in aid of the counter-revo lutionary Swiff.

The French writers exprefsa conviiJlion that thj Proclamation of the Confal will procure the fubmiffionof the Infur gent Generals and caufe an immediate termination ot ho'.tilitics. This, under the prefentcircumllances, will probably prove to be the cafe.
