We are unacquainted with the dispositions of the army of the Arden' es ; we only know that Lieutenant-General Van idamme extra ends it ; that the fottresses of the Meuse arc mantled with Nati , nal Guards, that they are proceeding with activity to fottify the defiles of the Argone ; that the towns Alf Laon, Soissons, Rheims, Chalons, Vitry, and Langres, sve put into a state of defence ; and that a numerous artillery is either already planted in battery, or on its way to those places. It appenr: that the army of the Alps is already very strong in front of Chamherv. The three first battalions of the regiments are in line and complete ; but the 4th and Gth are not yet so.
