robber, who was covered with crimes during

ebtained the rank of Colonel, has deserted 
from Berlin, with his whole regiment, and 
repaired to Wirtemberg, on the Saxon fron- 
tier. He has environedthattown. General

Seventh Bulletin. 
Vienna, May 3. 
On the 10th, about nine in the morning, 
the Emperor seer with the corps of the 
Marshal Duke of Montebello, at the gates of 
It was just one month, on the 
same day and hour that the Sesigad army 
had crossed the Ina, and the Emperor Fran- 
cis had rendered himself guilty of a breach of 
faith, which was the prognostic’of his over- 
throw. The Emperor experienced a secret - 
‘Satisfaction, when, approaching the immense 
suburb cf Vienna, a numerous populace, wo- 
men, children, and old men, hastened to 
meet the French army, and received our sole 
diers as friends. 
General Couroux entered the haarbs, and 
General Thurean repaired to the platform 
Atthe 
moment when he was posting his troops, he 
‘ was saluted with a fire of musketry and canton 
and received a slight wound. 
Of the three hundred thousand which form 
‘the whole population of Vienna, the town 
properly.so called, which is defended by - 
bastions and a counterscarp, contains nearly 
80,000 inhabitants. The four quarters of 
the town, which are called suburbs, and 
which are separated from it by a plain, on 
the land side, covered by entrenchments, in- 
clude more than 5000 houses, inhabited by 
more than 220,000 persons. 
' The Archduke Maximilian had ordered re- 
gisters to be opened to collect the names of 
the inhabitants who-wished to defend them- 
selves. Thirty individuals alone inscribed 
their names ; all the others refused with in- 
‘digonation. 
The Duke of Montebello sent him an aid- 
de-camp witha summons; but butchers, and 
some hundreds of fellows, who were the sa- 
tellites of the Archduke Maximilian, flew 
upon the aid-de-camp, and one of them 
wounded him. 
After this unheard-of vinliciou of = rights 
of nations, we saw the frightiul spectacle of 
a part of the city firing upon the other party 
and of a city whose arms were turned against 
her own Citizens. 3 : 
General Andreossy, ‘appotheed Governor | 
of the city, organised in each suburb muni- 
cipalities, a central committee of subsistence, 
and a national guard. 
The Governor-General caused a deputation 
from the eight suburbs to proceed to Schuen- 
brunn. The E Emperor ordered this deputation 
to.go into the city with a letter from the 
Prince of Neufchatel, representing to the. 
Archduke, that, if he continued to fire spon 
the suburbs, such an attack would for ever 
break the ties that attach subjects te their so- 
vercigns.  weAhaggc
