En iNKFORT, Nov. 26.—The tbllowing is'an extract of a letter from Dresden, dated the .17th inst : - " I seize the-first upportnnity presented, since out horison cleared up 3 little to give you some details of our situation for the last five wek4. " The Emperor Napoleon left Dresden on the 7th of October; the King, Queen, and Princess Augusta, went with hint. The corps of Marshal St. Cyr, about 22,000 strong, remained .in Zbecity anti its environs. But the Russian columns soon approached the city, driving before them the corps of Count de Lobes', which, made up of the remains of that of 'Vandamme, and still automating to about 20,000 men. had:been posted near Gieshubel. • It could leave only a small garrison at Somienstein, and it approached. to ..about two leagues from Dresden. In the mean time, Bit Russians were every day advancing, and soon encircled the city on all sides ; our ex ternal communications, which had been long very unfelt straitened, were maw cut off. We only now and then received intelligence, and could no longer obtain supplieg of provision; on theotheriaand , numbers of the country people sought refuge in the city, flans aug menting the large population which was there shut up. New en trenchments were incessantly thrown up around Dresden; all the streets, all time openings of the subuths were barricaded, intersected wit la palisades and traverses, and fortified in such a manner that our city Svemed transtormed into a new Saragossa. 'Mc city was soon inure strictly invested than ever; the corps of Count kienan ar rived under our walls, raised entrenchments, and commenced the, blockade in torah . O ur deplorable situation became every day worse. The number of sick among the French increased in fright lot progression ; more thaw 10,000 were crowded together in the hospitak: of whoM, at least 20(/ died daily. A mat number of others peraslard from want and exhaustion for flannel' the Govern ment wns compelled to furnish, by purchase or.otherwise, more Mats. 10( 0 casks of w inc, antl'6eo quintals of rice, the troops were hardly, the lest famished, bee.inse no order in the distribution of provisions was observed by the French authorities. In this distressed state, MarshaiSt. Cyr ordered the citizens or supply themselves with pro visions for two months, or fa "pit the city. The former was im practicable, because nothing could be obtained from without ; many families, therefore ' left Diesden._ But time besieging corps granted permission to this effect only for one day ; after which all-who at .tompted to pass the. Austrian advanced posts .wcre:Sent back, an • cortiing to t,ie rights of war. y _ _ . « New mengtres were taken in consequence. 'Lice inhabitants were compelled to ivt..1 . 11 a statement of all the provisions they had, and int medi*.itely to deliver into the French magazines,• a third .of gibe flour. meat, beer, and dry vepserables, of -Alia they had made deciaration. An this, however, mas itn•alici( wa n e for the hoses was peculiarly scarce, flour was farried off at the mill. the suburbs were thrown open was the situation to which we e struetiuu Itild fast approaching, ~ 'i . • • . r . I` . . • .! f. from four in the morning by thousande, demanding breed Arils Odd cries, and often cowing to blows about who should be first served. " Meanwhile the French soldieis, like spectres,• were wandering about the streets, and had often scarcely strength, to.begi others were seen laying old of the corners of streets, falling dow"wn through., weak ness, and doing on the spot. Everyday more than a serve of these victims were found in the streets, on the dunghills, or under carrhwes. Pious Catholic priests were often seen kneeling by the side of them in the streets, and giving them the extreme unction. The pen refuses to trace in detail the means which these unhappy men resorted to, to k up a little nourishment, in whatever possible way. " The dreadful filthiness. of the streets, during a month of had weather, contributed rapidly to propagate d)sentery and, nervous fevers, to which many respectable inhabitants have fallen victims. The deaths, which were at first only thirty a-week, rose to more than two hundred. These diseases still continue their frightf..l ravages. Such was our dreadful situation. when a report Will . yread that a capi tulation had been concluded, and that we might sow, hope r . obe de livered. Our hopes have not been. "deceived : the capitulati on took place on the 10th, and the first itolunins of the French troops .left Dresden on the lith, when they were replaced by; Russian and A 1.120. tri n troops."
