From a New York Paper.
The arrival at this port of the ship Jenny, from Bordeaux, though furnishing no later intelligence from the French Grand Army than has already appeared in the Mercantile Advertiser, has enabled us to trace the progress of the army from the publication of the first to the 13th bulletin, which is dated from Halle (40 miles S. E. of Magdeburg) on the 20th October.
The passengers in the Jenny inform us that the French army entered Berlin on the 21st of October; that the king of Prussia was said to be mortally wounded at the battle of Jena; and that an army of one hundred thousand Russians and Swedes had arrived on the Prussian frontiers.
