hundred men, a hundred of his own regiment, and as many of those of Haberstein and Bagni. He had with him also the captain of the artillery That with his fusileers. The rest of the foot, making in the whole eleven hundred men, were divided into proper corps, with a captain, lieutenant, and ensign at the head of each. These troops were designed to enter first by the aqueduct, and were instructed to make themselves masters of the posts assigned them. The cavalry marched in the following order. Count Merci, lieutenant colonel of the regiment of lorrain, was at their head with four captains, five heutenants, four cornets, five quarter masters, fourteen corporals, and two hundred and twenty five troopers; he was followed by the baron de Friberg, lieutenant colonel of the regiment of Taaf, and three hundred and twenty five horse, their officers, a kettle-drum, and six standards of the regiment of M. de Haux, major of the regi. ment of Lorrain, with a like number of officers, troopers, standards, and kettle-drums, came next after him M. Pre, lieutenant colonel of the regiment of Nenbourg, with the rest of that regiment, standards, and kettle-drums, colonel Paul Diok with his hussars had the rear-guard of the whole. Prince Eigene, general Staremberg, and prince Commercy marched with this body, consisting in all of seven thousand men, While they were on their march prince Charles of Vaudemont be gan to move on his side with the regiments of Darmstadt, Vaudemont, and didrichstein horse; two thousand foot of the regiments of Staremberg, Daun, and other troops amounting together to very near three thousand men; they took the road of Forentola, and passed the Po with intent to present themselves before the gate of the bridge of Cremona. The detatchments made by prince Eugene arrived in their proper order about three o' clock in the morning on the first of February within a quarter of a leauge of the place where the prince halted in order to wait for the rest of his troops, who had not been able to join him throur h the badness of the Road, and the length of their march. He received here three successive informati. ons that every thing went in the town according to his wish, and that they only waited his orders to enter npon action. As soon as all the troops had joined prince Eugene, his serene highness ordered those to advance whom he intended should enter the place by the aqueduct; he likewise directed that with all the silence imaginable, three hundred grena. diers commanded by the major of the regiment of Geschwind with some carpenters and locksmiths should approach the place: The guide who conducted them to the dike of the ditch, in order to the throwing a little bridge over the more numerous. After he had received information that all things' were very quiet in town, the detachments passed through the a queduct without being perceived. As these troops came out of this subterraneous passage, they immediately joined the grenediers who were already in the town, and possessed the posts assigned them by the prince. The major Geschwi.d began by making himself master f the gate of St. Margaret, which had been walled up, and which consequently had no guard. He employed there all the Workmen he had brought with him, who in a short time made a clear passage for for the cavalry to enter who waited without for that purpose. It was on this walled up gate without a guard, and on the aqueduct, that prince Eugene relied for the success of his project. . While the major of Geschwind's regiment was working with as little noise as possible at the opening of St. Margaret's gate with the twenty five grenadiers he had posted there, the other officers were employed in securing the ramparts. They took care that the avenues were well guarded, and particular ly that the great street which led to the square was kept perfectly free that the cavalry might pass. As soon as the gate of St. Margaret was open the major of geschwind's regiment made the signal agreed upon to give advice to prince Eugene, which was the blowing up a small quantity of powder thrice upon the rampart. Count Merci, who had the command of the van, at the head of two hundred and fifty troopers, entered the town immediately on the gallop, making all the haste he could to the gate of the Po with intent to make himself master thereof, and of the artillery posted there. The baron de Freidberg, lieutenant colonel of the regiment of Taaf, with three hundred and twenty five horse followed him sword in hand, and posted himself in the square of St. Agatha. He sent a lieutenant with two hundred troopers to patrol in the neighbouring streets. M. de Havre, major of the regiment of Lorrain, entered next with a like number of horse, one half of which he posted in the great square, and the other half in the Piazza of Piccola, and obliged them to patrole continually from one place to the other. After him came the baron de Scherzeck, a lieutenant colonel, with a more numerous detachment, and posted themselves in other pla ces. M. du Pre major of the city with alike detachment posted towards the gate of St. Margaret, taking care to have two lieutenants with twenty five men each to keep a constant patrol on the right and left. Colonel Paul Diak with his hussars posted themselves on the right of the squadrons of Neubourg near a little bridge in order to scour the roads in the rear. (To be continued.) LAW CASE OF ARCHDEACON WHISKEY AND OPINION THEREON. This beauteous phenomenon felt himself aggrieved by an article in the Irish Magazine, that after due consideration, and many struggles with his avarice, he sent the Magazine and three tenpenny's and the following note to counsellor Tralee Hussey, the Munster Thaumaturgus. SIR, I beg leave to call your attention to the article in this magazine of archdeacon Whiskey, and that professionally, I have enclosed your fee upon the occasion. I wish to pnish that rascal Cox, who is a rebel and a traitor to his king and country, and selects out the very most respectable and wealthy citizens of Dublin to make free with; you see how he has used me that could buy him from the gallows. Direct me Sir, I beseech you how I can be lawfully revenged of him, is the matter treason or felony, or which is it, I am sure the least can be done to him is hanging, I should hope he will be Gibbeted, but of that you are best judge,-pray direct me how I shall proceed against this basest of calumniating rascals. ARCHDEACON WHISKEY, To which the barrister returned the following opinion. I have read the article Archdeacon Whiskey, in the Irish Magazine, and not only that, but the whole Magazine; I looked at all the pictures, I have made every necessary enquiry into Cox's circumstances, and I find that he lay in Newgate for a month thro' inability to pay twenty pounds to the Stamp-office for a fine, and that all the loyal men in Dublin condemn the work as Edited by a man who is disloyal and does not keep a proper distance with his betters, and as I saw character save a man's life, by the same rule the law says, it shall destroy it-which applies in the present case, who is Cox who is Archdeacon Whiskey? The Archdeacon, a man MAJOR S The literary, world will learn with pleasure that the valuable collection made by this book-fancier in the year 1798, is offered to sale. This man has long since given up the ambition of appearing a literary character, content with his reputation; as a statesman, he feels all wordly pride satisfied being converted to methodism, by weekly bounty from Mrs. La touche's swadling fund he looks to a future reward, and defies the deul, with his acquired grace, his conscientious feeling of past conduct, and his magnum of Scotch whiskey, a No. 1, The Missale Romanum, or Papist mass-book, Elzevir Edi. tum, Morocco, bound anew by the Major.

Then I would, if he got out, summon him before the Court of Conscience, and if the Alderman was sa stupid as not to give him ample satisfaction, Į would appeal to the Imperial Parliament. S LIBRARY.
