The following are the only particulars of the engagement (mentioned in our last) between the Emperor's troops and the forces of the Republic of Venice, which have yet arrived;
The Imperial troops having disembarked in the district of Budon, to effect a junction with some forces (Les Monte Negrins) in Albania, were stopped on their march by the Venetian advance guard, who shewed the orders of the Senate, as his authority, to deny the pass, and to contest it, if the denial was refused. The orders of the Senate were general, and extended as a bar, not only to the Venetians, but against all strangers. The orders also were circumspect as to the mode of acting: to avoid, to the last extremity, every measure that could be constructively referred to offensive war. Which side fired first is differently reported: both sides fired, and exchanged three rounds of shot, with some carnage on both sides, but with no change of place in either. The consequences of this skirmish are not known.
