The bridge over the Rhine, which was taken up yesterday morning, will be thrown over to right, and the corps of Gen. Petrarch, whose head quarters have been at Bregenz, is to advance in haste, as he has been apprised that generals Jellachich and Auersperg, have united with Marshal Suwarrow, who was advancing into the heart of Switzerland. He already occupies Lucerne.
-September 30.
The retreat which the imperial troops made on the 25th and 26th from Utzensach, by the Toggenbourg, and the canton of Appenzel, was very fatiguing. After the good news which has arrived of the progress of Marshal Suwarrow in the South of Switzerland, general Petrarch and Gruber are preparing to advance by the Rhinthal. The French appeared the 29th before Constance, but were driven therefrom the same day. It is not Marshal Suwarrow who has arrived at Feldkirch as reported; but it is gen. Jellachich. The French have been in the environs of St. Gall, but in such small numbers, as easily to be dispersed.
