THE NATIONAL REGISTER. sured that this intelligence has been received by various tele graphic messages, as well as private letters; and hope that the joyful tidings will soon be of announced." It is impossible to reflect without the most lively terror on the inevitable consequences of this dis aster,—it is the last blow to the independence of the Eu ropean coutiuents,—it not only completes but confirms the French despotism—whilst Austria remained feeble as she was, there was still a barrier between France and uni versal domination,.--and time and chance which happen to kingdoms as well as individuals, might happily have given an opportunity to her to repairthe ravages of a long course of ill success. This hope is now over, and the ca lamity of Europe is crowned. It is impossible not to ac knowledge in these events, the all directing hand of Hea ven, but what Ref be 'its ultimate and precise purpose, can only be explained by the events. a_ _ U FROM THEDTCII PAPERS. IMIIWTOSBURG, APRIL 2g.—ttiS Majesty the King has re ceived the following letter from Ihi Highness the Prince of Neufchatel :—. K BACH, APRIL O. " I have the honour to inform your Majesty; that within the last three days we have defeated the enemy at all Poin4. - tour troop took a part in this victory, and have covered them*Aves with glory." Courier, who arrived yesterday afternoon from tbo army, his Majesty received the following account of the vittory obtained over the enemy on the 20th " The army of Wirtetnberg advanced on the 19th from Neu burg and lngolstadt to Neustadt. The corps commanded by the Dukes of Auerstadt and Dantzic, formed a junction on the lath. The enemy had no longer ventured to move forward in the di rection of the Danube, but was thinking of a retreat towards Lathishot. .On the 20th, in the morning, the French Etnperor reconnoitred the positions of the enemy, on the other side of A bentherg, and after ascertaining the dispositions made by the euerny for their retreat, he caused the whole of the Wirtemberg army to take a position higher up than that occupied by the Bavarian General Deroi. As each regiment quitted the pass, it funned in column, and took post on a height, where the French Emperor had taken his station in person. After an address from his imperial Niajesty, which Lieut.-General Von Neubron io.- terpreted in German, the foe was attacked, dislodged from all the positions which he occupied on very broken and much inter weted ground, pursued and every where compelled to fall back aWI the greate,t rapidity. This manoeuvre was performed in the most gallant st) le by the brigade of light infantry, the two batteries of horse artillery, and the whole of the cavalry, with the exception of the Jawers of Duke Louis, who formed the Em peror's escort. The a r tfantry of the line followed in column. The enemy were pursued to the other side of Siegburg, where the army of Wirtemburg took post and bivouacked during the fol lowing night. " The battalion of Royal Infantry, Jagers, and those of Wolf's battalion, who were the first that arrived on the field of battle l attacked and carried several woods and villages that were occupied by the enemy. To advanoe rapidly, deploy, carry a *Wage and the adjacent wood, were the works of a» insiailt. The cavalry, owing to the inequality of the ground, could only Oct in squadrons.

The Grand Army began to manceuvre ag- hist the right flank of the Austrian army on the 7th of April ; two affairs of outposts occurred.— On the 19th, a serious engagement took place between Neustadt and Ratisbon ; the advanced guard of the Austrians was driven in disorder ; the van of the French army was commanded by the Prince of Neufchatel. Tice Emperor, who had arrived on the evening of the 19th, posted himself in the centre ; and on the 20th, at day-break, the enemy fell upon his line at all points.--,, In eonsepuence of the wasterly precautions taken by the French, the enemy were cut off from all their other corps, and the de struction of the first.mentioned corps 11 folio Act' up on the Alit, 22d. and 2fld. So early a, toe 'elst, the French had made 10.000 prisoners. The tot:i! loss of the Austrians army is -.aid to he 25,000 men, while ot het accounts state this to be the amount of the prisoners alone. Twenty Austrian Generals arc killed, wounded, or pris:iners. On the 21st in the evening, cite Emperor had not dismounted from his horse. The lima , rho troops rivalled ours ii point of bravery. From Milan we have received a letter dated Cassano, April 16, which states, that, in consequetice of the declaration of hostilities, a skirmish had taken place between two troops of cavalry, Austrian mid French, and that the French had wade a few prisoners, among whom were a Colonel and a Major of the Hungarian Hussars. The Major was w minded in three places by a French Serjeant whom his Majesty immediately prowinted as Sub Lieutenant. It was generally supposed that a more serious affair would take place next day, but we are assured that the Austrians are retreating on all sides. The following intelligence has been received from Spain : It is necessary to mention it, though we cannot consider it of sufficient importance to require or justify a detailed com ment. .'• . • The Racoon Top of war, which has arrived from Gi jon, (havino:leffthat port on the 28th ult.) brings inti►rma tion that the Martinis ROMAN! projected an attack upon- St. Audero, where 'we are assured only a weak.garrisoa was remaining . The Racoon had been sent to Gijon from Cadiz, with money for the use of the Asturian :silly. The two following- letters have been received from Va- lencia : VA LENCTA, MA RCTI93.—" We have just received the pleas ing intelligence of netts and Vales having been evacuated by the French. The encampment was breaking up, and the communi cation by land eta , . again open. BON PARTN had ordered 50,000 of his troops to march immediately into France. MARCH 21.—" We have this day received the news of the enemy hay lug taken po,ses,ion of Marcella, which ig in this province, and only IS leagues from us. They have 3000 infan try, and 700 cavalry, and nothiog to prevent their forming a junction with the di v i,ion of A fragon, advancing upon this city." Besides these letters, the latter of which unfortunately overthrows the pleasing hope, which the former, if cre dited, might raise, there have been others ; one from Ali cant, of the 30th of March, also joins in the statement that the French are abandoning Spain. They mention that 15,000 armed peasants had been collected in A rragou, under the command of General DoTLE„ and that they were to take possession of Bellima. Three members of the Junta of Valentia, and the In. tendant. had been removed at the retoest of the people, being suspected of infidelity to the Spanish cause ; but this had been done without the least interruption of the public peace. 6 ` The battery of horse artiller Voo Kerner, stood the musketry coolness and intrepidity.
