were sent at this time to the garri- 
son at Memminghen, which consisted 
of 11 battalions, to evacuate that 
place, and join the above corps un- 
der general Jellachich. Whether the 
order arrived too late, or whether it 
was ill delivered, I am unable to de. 
cide ; but the garrison capitulated to 
the French under general Davoust, 
after the town had been nearly re- 
duced to ashes. [tis to be observed, - 
that the artillery destined for the 
fortifications of that place was still 
without the town. Upon this oc- 
casion, a great number of Bavarian 
peasants who had joined the French, 
and who were taking possession of 
the aboye artillery, were cut to 
pieces by the Austrian hussars, who 
carricd the whole or the greatest 
part of it off. 
Iam sorry to say, that a general 
consternation or dismay is beginning 
to prevail here, at least in the pub- 
lic. The presence of the emperor of 
Russia, who is expected here on the 
5th of next month, may pergaps 
tend todispel thegloom, particularly 
should affairs take rather a more fa- 
vourable turn in theinterval. If in 
truth they bear an inauspicious as. 
pect, they are not by any means 
desperate. ‘There is an army of re- 
serve of 50,000 men; there areas 
many more Russians on their march; 
some reinforcements may be drawn 
from Italy ; 50 or 60,000 men may, 
it is to be hoped, be pamodt from the 
Austrian and Russian armies now in 
Germany ; so that, in the course of 
three or four weeks, unless these 
armies should be absolutely and li- 
terally annihilated, we shall have 
considerably above 100,000 men 
ready to take the field.
