tablished along the, western frontier of this
kingdom, a . cordon of troops supported by
small detachments of cavalry, composed, of
invalids and recruits . with the sole view of
arresting the marauders of the Austriari ar
my, who may be found there. It cannot,
therefore, be supposed that he hus any hostile
views, these detachments having positive orders-'
to retire on jJie approach of the French
troops to the frontiers. . , ,
1 As these small detachments,' which should
llUb UC VUI19IUViu wi-v w.. O
parlies, are to fall back on the approach of
the French armr. his myal highness has gi
ven orders to the hospitals, to the houses
. of education, to the pensionary officers and
to the individuals employed in arranging
Wie accounts of the regiments and military
hospitals, to remain in their places, persuauea
that the General or the Commander of the
French troops-will not refuse to grant them
protection, and that he will give orders, that
the detachment ot the French crmy which
shall enter IluncrarV, shall not commit any
excess provided no kind of ioppoMt'ion Le
made' to them., and that in consequence of
this declaration, the undersigned will have
Wany important points, to discuss with the
GencralorCommandantoflhe French troops.
He requests him to grant a meeting on

' He waits his answer, and has thu honor to
to be his very humble servant.

The rear-guard of the Rusfians had been '
Obliged to lea ve the hospital of Znaim, where '
i.we have found considerable magazines o,it
flour , and oats. The , Russians retireil to
Brunn, and our advanced guard pursued '
them half way. But the emperor being in
formed that the emperor of Austria was at
'that place, wished to shew him a mark of
his regard, and halted on the eighteenth, i
Herewith is subjoined the capitulation of
the fort of Kuffstein, taken by the Bavarians. .
, Gen. Baraguay D'Hilliers made an incur--jfeion
as far as Pilseii in Bohemiavand obliged,'
the enemy to evacuate their posts. ' He has
taken several magazines and fulfilled the
; object of his mission.' The dismounted dra-
goons have crosed with rapidity the nioun
tains covered with ice and fir trees, which
separate Bohemia from Bavaria. '
No Idea can be formed of the terror with
. which thf Russians' have inspiredthe Mo- .
, rayiana. In making their retreat, they burnt
thi most beautiful ' villages, and knocked in
the htad many of the peasantry. . .When the
inhabitants saw them depart, they exclaimed
'with great joy, our enemies are gone. They
speak of them only as Barbarians who every
where spread desolation. This is not appli
ed to the officers, who ore in general Very
diifiirent from 4 he soldiery. Mmiy of them
are men of distinguished merit, but the army
evinces a savage instinct which we never
have observed in our European armies. ,
' When we ask the inhabitants; of Aus.tr'i3,i

peror ; we love him they reply, but how' do
you expect we can love him any longer; He
has brought in the Russians.
It had been reported at Vienna, that the
.Russians had beaten the French army; and
were advancing to that city. ' A woman cri-t
ed out in the street, " the French are beaten ;
the Russians are coining." The consterra
tion was neneral .fear and dread prevailed
throughout Vienna. Such is the result of
the fatal counsels of CobenUe.l, of Colkredo
and Lamberti. These men are aho detested
by thction, and the emperor of An r'u
will never recover the confidence and love
of his subjects, but by sacrificing therh' to.
