The Regency of Spain, using the powers given them by the Cortes, fixod np.,tt the li,nd called Soto de Roma, situated in Viega de Grenada. to give the (;seat Lent. Tne Cortes not only approved cf this choke, but added to it by including the land of Chanchinas, with the clause of its bt ing for him and his heirs, according to the constitution and laws. War now rages in all its horrors, and the scale of hostili ties embraces all the nations of Europe. Every people has sent its combatants to tl►e field, and the whole military force of the Continent is divided into two portions, the one fight ing for NAPCL cox under the banners of slavery, the other with the Allied Sovereigns under the standard of freedom. With the first opeptions of the armies we are still but little acquainted. Our only information comes through France, and it is given in too scanty a manner to enable us to form a clear and correct opinion. It is chiefly con tained in a letter from BUON APA RT CS Secretary of State (Count Da au), who, finding that his master " was too much occupied to write," informs the French public that the allied army, which was in Silesia, bas been bcatcn and repulsed to a distance ; that the debooches from Bohemia have been cccupied and fortified, (and yet they have not dared to avow that Austria had declared war, what must the Parisians think of such precautions?) and that the armies •that were manoeuvring towards Brandenburg must, on the 24th ult., have entered Berlin, from whence DavotrsT's force, united with the Danes, was supposed to be only within a few marches. As to NAPOLEON, be was sometimes on the banks of the Bober, then amidst the Bohemian defiles, and afterwards acting on the Elbe, probably against the CROWN PRINCE'S army, which extended from the ground opposite Alagdeburg, in a nearly straight line through Spandau aid Berlin to the shores of the Baltic. The French Papers furnish a few additional pat ticulars. consisting however chiefly of dates. They state, that it was on the 19th NAPOLEON attacked the Allies and drove them fiolll Gabel, and on the 21st across the Bober. They also describe DAvous•t•'s advance, which, on the 22d, had not passed beyond Mastof. From all these statements it appears, that on almost every point the Allies have been the assailants. The Bober flowed within the line of demarkation occupied by the French during the armistice; had they not fallen back before the renewal of hos• tilities, (probably on account of the demonstratient in Bo hemia) and had not BLUCHER'S army followed them, their first operations would have been on the banks of the Oder and not on those of the Bober. That their superiority or num bers may have compelled BLUCIIER to retrograde, is not un likely, and that they have claimed a victory in consequence of his falling back is still less so. But it is evident that no great advantage was gained, for BUONA P A RTE would have found time to blazon it forth himself to the wot Id, and that even. the little he may have obtained, he has not been able to follow up, since be was compelled to quit the Bober, to manoeuvre against BERNADOTTE on the 569 Elbe. He now finds himself in a situation, to him, entirely new, and not unlike that o f FREDERICK the G ::A T o Wlall %viten at war with all his neighbours, was frequently obligeal, after giving battle, to travel a hundred miles to fight :an other the next day with another army. Hitherto Natoo- L EON has overpowered his enemies by pressing with all his force on a particular point, which he was sure of 'carrying s He then continued to advance, regardless of the wings of his enemy, which, to prevent being intercepted, gene rally followed the movement of the centre, and retreat ed with equal rapidity. Had they remained and closed its. his • rear, he would have himself been entirely cut off, and must have speedily endeavou r ed to fight his way back to the point .from whence be had act out, exposed to complete ruin. This is what happened in his invasion of Russia. When he pushed the centre of the Russian force behind the wrecks of Moscow, bad the corps of WITTGENSTEIN and TCHICHAGOFF, which formed its right and left wings, f 01... lowed up its retrograde movement to maintain their communi cations, Russia would have been conquered, and the freedoms of Europe lost. But they remained wisely at their post. though 300 rniles . in the rear of their centre, until they re ceived reinforcements, when they moved close behind the enemy, who was compelled to brave the horrors of winter. and expose himself to all the disadvantages of flight, to effect his retreat, before they had united in his rear, and et? closed him. within the devastated wilds of Russia. Aware of this NA ro LEON no longer dares to follow his usual system, wither will the dispositions of the Allies allow it. Their fo rce is divided into three bodies equally numerous, and consisti lig of about 90,000 men each. Of these, the one under the Csiowx Par rce r, which forms the right of the Allies, extends across the country from the Baltic, through Berlin to the Elbe, and threatens the left wing of NAPOLEONS Grand Army, but is itself menaced on its right flank by the force under DA VOUST'S command. The second, under General BLIP• CH ER, occupies the country from the vicinity of Merlin along the right bank of the Bober to Breslau in S ilesia, and composes the centre of the Allies, connecting BERN ADOTT es army on its right with that 11/1&1* BARCLAY. DE Tor.r.v - , which forms the left wino and is posted at Prague, in Bohemia. From the masterly disposition of these three armies, BUONA eART E csinnot bring all his force to bear upon one of them, without having the two others immediately acting in his rear. He must therefore content himself with dividing his own in the same manner, and returning to the ancient system of war fare, which reduces him, on every point, to a level in num bers with his opponents, and leaves him no other chance of success than that which be may derive from superiority of skill or bravery, neither of which, when deprived of all ad ventitious :rid, it is probably now in his power to exert. A report was received last Friday, from off Flushing, of BUON AP A lITE having been defeated with loss of 10,000 men, and of grelt desertion having taken place among his troops. It was brought by the Active cutter. The report was corn. municated by a fishing boat which came purposely, as the crew said, out of the Scheldt.
