st "The 2 22d of May was a very severe day, 
but it had a most fortunate result for the arms 
of his Imperial Majesty. The French Grand 
Army was conveyed over the Danube, in the _ 
mght of the 2ist, by four bridges opposite to 
Aspern. The Emperor Napoleon conducted 
the troops in person. At the head of the 
Austrian troops was the Archduke Charles. 
‘¢ The contest was continued through the 
whole day with the greatest obstinacy. At 
the decisive moment the Archduke alighted 
from his horse, seized a standard, and led 
his grenadiers against the Heats cavalry, 
which he routed. ‘the first regiment of the 
jusurrection greatly distinguished itself in this 
battle, The loss of the enemy is reckoned 
at 20,000 in dead, and the Austrian army also 
sus: Sind cons} rae loss. | 
€* On the 25d, the French retreated by the 
bridges which still remained, over the. Da- 
nube. Their rear guard only still, remained ; 
but these also had mianifest:d a disposition to 
yetreat when this intelligence came fiom 
head quarters.”

which you have made for. the services of the

liament, 
“© My Lords and Gentlemen, 
<¢ The atrocious and unparalleled act of vio- 
lence and treachery, by which the Ruler of 
France attempted tosurprise and to enslave the 
Spanish Nation, while it has excited in Spain a 
determined and unconquerableresistanceagainst 
the usurpation and tyranny of the French 
Government, has, at the same time, awakened 
in other nations of Europr a determination to 
resist, by a new effort, the cuntinued and in- 
creasing encroachments on their safety and 
independence. 
‘* Although the uncertainty of all human 
events, and the ‘vicissitudes attendant upon 
war, forbid too confident an expectation of a 
satisfactory issue to the present struggle 
against the common enemy of Europe, his 
Majesty commands us to congratulate you 
upon the splendid and important success which 
has recently crowned the arms of the Empet 
ror of Austria, nnder the able and distin- 
guished conduct of his Imperial Highness the 
Archd one Charles. 
‘s To the efforts of Europe for its own de- 
liverance, bis Majesty has directed us to as- 
sure you, that he is determined to continue 
his most strenuous assistance and Supports 
convinced that you will agree with him in 
considering that every exertion for the re-es~ 
tabiishhment of the independence and security 
of other nations, is no less conducive to the 
true interests, than itis becoming the charac~ 
ter and honour of Great Britain.” _
