It is supposed that the campaign is over, and that as the French are gone into winter quarters, no warlike operations will take place for some time. But it should seem from the last dispatches from Russia, as if Marshal Kaminskoy had concentrated his army within the circuit of a few miles, for the purpose of resuming offensive operations immediately. He is only waiting the supplies that are on their way to him of forage and provisions.
The Russian troops are peculiarly calculated for carrying on war during the winter, and we should imagine that Kaminskoy will attack the French in their cantonments. The two armies are so near each other, particularly those detachments that are between the Omulcio and the Orcye,
That the fix'd centinels almost receive The secret whispers of each other's watch.
The Russian Army is in the best state, full of confidence and enthusiasm and impatient to meet the enemy.
