the habitatiojis of the peaceable citizens, is
a crime which can be repaired with time
and money ; but to dishonor an army by
desiring it to fly oat of Germany before the
Prussian eagle, is a baseness, that he only
who couldcounsel it, could commit."
. Mr. P. Luchesini is always at head-
quarters ; the emperor has refused to see
liim ; but it is observed, that he has frequent
conferences with the grand marshal of the
palace, Durcc.
The emperor has ordered that J a present
shall be made out of the great quantity of
English cloth found at Leipsick, of a com-
plete suit for each officer, and a coat and
cap for each soldier.
The imperial quarters are at Kropstadt.

SEVENTEENTH BULLETIN.
Pottsdam, 25th October, 1806.
The corps of' Marshal Lannes arrived at
Potsdam, on the 24th.
The corps of Marshal Davoust made its
entry at 10 o'clock in the morning into
Berlin.
The corps of marshal prince ef Pcnte
Corvo is at Brandenburg.
The corps of marshal Augereau will
make its entrance into Berlin to-morrow,
the 26th.
The emperor arrived yesterday at Potsdam
and alighted at the palace ; in the evening,
lie went to visit the new palace of Sans-
Souci, and all the positions which environ
Potsdam ; he found the situation of the cas-
tle of Sans-Sonci, very agreeable ; he re-
mained some time in the chamber of the
great Frederick, which he found furnished
in the same way it was at the time of his
death.
Prince Ferdinand, brother of Frederick
the great, has remained at Berlin. We
have found in the arsenal of Berlin, 500 pie-
ces of cannon, many millions of pounds of
powder&animmensequantity of small arms.
General Hullin is named cemmandant of
Berlin. General Bertrand, aid-de-camp of
the emperor, has repaired to Spandau ; that
fortress defends itself ; he has made the in-
vestment with the dragoons of the division
of Dupont.
The grand duke of Berg has repaired to
Spandau to put himself in pursuit of a co-
lumn which defiles from Spandau on Stettin,
and which they hope to cut off.
Marshal De Febvre, commanding the
imperial foot guards, and marshal Bessicres,
commandant of the imperial horse guards,
arrived at Potsdam on the 24th ; the foot
guards made 14 leagues in a day. The
emperor remained the whole of the day of
the 25th at Potsdam.
The corps of marshal Ney blockades
Magdeburg.
The corps of marshal Strait has passed
the Elbe, a days journey from Magdeburg,
and pursues the enemy on Stettin.
The weather continues to be superb ; it
is the finest autumn that has been known.
On his road, the emperor being on horse-
back to repair from Wittemberg to Potsdam,
he was surprised by a gust and alighted at
the house of the grand huntsman of Saxo-
ny ; his majesty was much astonished to
hear himself called by his name by a hand-
some woman ; she was an Egyptian woman,
the widow of an officer of the array of
Egypt, who had been in Saxony fop 'three
months ; she resided with the grand hunts-
man who had received and treated her ho-
norably—the emperor settled on her a pen-
sion of 1200 francs, and has taken eharge
of her son. " It is the first time," said
the emperor, " that I ever alighted on ac-
cbunt of a gust, 1 had a presentiment that
a good action attended me there."
It is remarked as a singularity that the
emperor Napoleon arrived at Potsdam and
alighted on the same day and nearly at the
same hour, that the emperor of Russia did
last year, when he made that journey which
has been so fatal to Prussia. It was from
that moment that the queen left the care of
her domestic affairs and the great occupations
of the toilet to meddle in the affairs of state,
to influence the king and to spread every
where the flame with which she was posses-
sed.
The considerate party of the Prussian na-
tion consider this journey as one of the great-
est misfortunes which has happened to Prus-
sia ; there can be no idea formed of the ac-
tivity of the faction to make the king de-
clare for war in spite of himself.
The result of the celebrated oath made on
the tomb of Frederick the great, on the 4th
of November, 1805, was the battle of Aus-
terlitz, and the evacuation of Germany by
tlie Russian army, by fxed stages—they
made, 48 hours after, on this subject, an en-
graving, whjch is found in all the shops aild
which excites even the country men to laugh.
You there see the handsome errjperor of Rus-
sia, near to him the queen, on the other side
the king; raises his hand on the tomb of the
great Frederick ; the queen is dressed in a
Shawl something like the engravings of Lon-
don represent lady Hamilton ; she sup;.
her hand on Iter breast, and with a tender
Stir looks at the emperor of Russia ; We can-
not conceive how the police of Berlin suf-
fered tl>« Spreading of so pitiful a satire.—
The Shade of the great Frederick could not
hut be indignant at this scandalous: scene,
.his mind, his genius ancj his wishes were
:utioa :.e so much esteemed; & of £
