CONTINENTAL ADVICES. fleben, who fucceeded the archduke Charles in the command of the Austrians in this part of Germany, to take refuge, after feveral bloody engagements, in the emperor's hereditary kingdom of Bohemia. SOON after the opening of the campaign fort, Wurtzburg, and Bamberg, and on the Lower Rhine, the Auftrians have finally compelled general Wartenhad obtained fuch confiderable advantages over the French army of the Sambre and Meufe, commanded by general Jourdan, that the latter appeared to be compelled to retreat, to raise the fiege of the fortrefs of Ehrenbreitftein, and to recross the Rhine. See page 57. It has been fince thought, however, that this retrograde march was not fo much a compulfive movement as a military manoeuvre, intended to draw the attention of the Auftrians from their operations on the Upper Rhine, and thereby enable general Moreau, the French commander in chief of the army of the Rhine and Mofelle, the more easily to cross the Rhine at Huninguen, in the neighbourhood of Strafburg. This object having been effectually obtained, general Jourdan again croffed the Rhine, renewed the fiege of Ehrenbreiftein, drove the Auftrians from all their pofitions in the vicinity of the Sieg and the Lahn, and entering the circle of Franconia, took the cities of Franc In the Upper Rhine, general Moreati was not lefs fuccefsful against the archduke Charles, who had himself affumed the command of the Auftrian army in Suabia, in the room of general Wurmfer, who had been fent with a confiderable reinforcement, to command the army in Italy. Several battles were fought; and the refult of the victories near Rattadt and Ettingen, in particular, has been, that the Auftrians have been compelled to retreat from the Neckar to the Danube the principal cities of Suabia have been taken poffeffion of by the French; and the Margrave of Baden, the duke of Wurtemburg, and indeed the whole cir cle of Suabia, have been compelled to sue for peace. In Italy the operations of marshal Wurmfer were, for fome time, very fuecessful. The French loft three or four fortreffes of confequence, and were obliged to evacuate Verona, and to raise the fiege of Mantua. This fuccefs, however, was of fhort duration. The French general Buonoparte, obtained a decifive victory, near Caftiglione, about twenty miles northwest of Mantua, and where it is remarkable, the French had defeated the Imperialists ninety years before. They likewife beat the Austrians at Lonado and Montechiaro, Thefe fucceffes,' fays the prefident of the executive directory in his meffage to the council of five hundred, FROM THE LONDON GAZETTES.

THE letter, of which the following is an extract, was received from colonel Graham, by the right hons low Grenville, his majesty's principal fecretary of state for foreign affairs, dated Roveredo, July 4. On the 30th ult. I had the honour of informing your lordship that the enemy made an unsuccessful attack on Mount Baldo, on the 28th;, fince that, all remained quiet. Marthal Wurmfer arrived here this morning, Downing-street, July 30. The letter, of which the following is an extract, was received from lieutenant-colonel Craufurd, by the right hon. lord Grenville, his majesty's principal fecretary of state for foreign affairs, dated head-quarters of his royal highnefs the archduke Charles of Auftria, Eifingen, near Pfortzheim, July, I have the honour to inform your lordfhip, that, on the 7th and 8th inftant, the archduke remained in the poffeffion of Ettlingen, in order to give time for the arrival at Pfortzheim of the Saxons, who were advancing from Graben to re enforce his royal highnefs' army; and the corps that had been detached into the mountains, under the command of general Keim, to cover the left, was ordered to take its principal pofition at Frawen Alb. The Saxons reached Pfortzheim in the night of the 7th. On the 8th, difpofition was made to attack general Moreau on the Toth, in the pofition of the Murg, at Raftadt, Kupenheim, and Gertzbach; and, on the 9th, while the preparatory movements were executing, in order to bring the troops forward to the different points from whence they were to advance the next morning, the enemy forced back the archduke's advanced pofts with a part of their army, while their principal force attacked general Keim. His royal highnefs immediately fupported his advanced pofts, and was victorious on his right, and along his whole front; but general Keim, after having made a moft obftinate refiftance, was obliged to yield to the fuperiority of numbers, and he retired to Pfortzheim. The Saxons, who were in march to cover that general's left flank, did the fame; and, as this unfortunate circumftance gave the enemy poffeffion of all the paffes in the mountains, on the archduke's left, his royal highness found, himself under the neceffity of marching, with his main army, to Pfortzhe.m, on the 10th; where he is now encamped. The Austrians loft, on this occafion, about 1600 men, and four pieces of cannon. The lofs of the French cannot be exactly ascertained, but it must have been very confiderable. The prince of Conde's corps, which has behaved with great bravery, was at Villingen, on the 8th, the date of the laft accounts that were received from it. The Auftrian general Frolich still remained in the Brifgaw. The enemy has passed the Lahn, and the army, which was left for the defence of that part of the country, has retired to the polition of Bergen, having thrown proper garrifons into Mayence and Ehrenbreitstein.
