TRANCE. PARIS, OCTOBER s 3. The Emperor, infteadsf taking the red which his i fatigues met render necelTary to him, paired the night of the s4th in &elfin with his own hands the wounded of his equipage.—Gasme de Frame. °croata ss.—The official Bulletin of the tattle of the tath Oduber has not yet reached us. But a Note publifhed at Menta on the t 9th precepts the mod pofitive details on that engagement. According to private letters, the authenticity of which may be warranted, that battle was followed by advantages as brilliant as the victory itfelf. Wei. mar and Erfurt were occupied by the French : in fine it may be relied upon, that in that engagement and the two days which followed it, forty thonfand pri• loners, 360 Bands of colours, moll of which had been given by the Great Frederick, fell into the power of the conqueror. The Prince of Orange and General Blocher are among the prifoners. The sing of Pm& demanded an armiftice of fut weeks, but the Emperor, who does not with for an armed tiuce, refuted. He immediately marched his army againft Naumburg,and the indefatigable ardour with which he purfues his focceffes, announces that fo fhort a war will loon be followed by a lading peace. Other accounts Bate, that the Gr..nd Army profit- ted from the vietory of Jena it purfued the wreck ef the Prullian army, and made as immenfe noniber ef them prifoners. Letters from Mayenee, which In have juft received, inform us, that, fines the cow. meneecnent of hodilities there wen taken 60,00 e, Peasant prifoners, hefides ao,ooo killed and wounded, together with 390 pieces of cannon, and so Randards. The Hereditary Prince of Orange, Marfhal Molten dorff, and fever al other Generals, are amongd the prifoners. The report that the Marqnis Lucche fiai let off on the 19th for the French bead quarters, with three chaffeurs,frous Potfdam. requires farther confirmation. On the afternoon of the alb, thirteen thoufand French troops paired through Lerpfic, in the 'created . . order, and on the s t R crowed the Elbe at Wittenbergh. They paid for every thing at Leipfic with cafh. On the asd Lord Murpeth continual his journey for England. The late& intelligence from Germany hates, that the Kiog of Nora, frightened at the Rorm which was gathering every moment round him, lofing fight of every other objeft, no longer thinking even of defending Weflphalia before the King of Holland, had called about him the whole Prußian army,— He felt that the fate of the Monarchy was under the walls of Weimar. It was indeed there that it was decided, together with that of a fourth coalition, the project of which can now nr+ longer be appreciated. —lf what is rumoured of the approach of a Ruffian army be true, it is probable they may return more precipitately than they came, and will be afraid of finding another Aufierlitz.

I • 1 a. . . )44 /ROM THE DUTCH PAPERS. :"`OPNPTH BULLETIN OP THE GRAND ARMY. Baena, Ocr. :6 —Yellarday morning arrived here, ►y a courier from the army, the Fifth Bulletin of the Grand French Army, containing the pettiest lam of the glorious vi&ory gained over the Pruffian army on the 14th. It is dated Jena, Olt ober 15, and is as follows : " The battle of Jena has wiped away the &grace of the battle of Rofbach, and in (even days conclu ded a campaign Which has wholly 'quieted all the dreadful preparations for war with which the Prof . Gan heads were fo much poffelfed. " The following wa• the polition of the army on the tsth : • The Grand Duke of Berg and MAW Myrna were with their corps of the army at Naumberg, having a part at Leipzig and Halle. Tbe corp. or 1.4.Atal Prince Pont. Com WllOll the march to awe up to Naumberg. ■ The corps of Martial Leone, adverted to Tens; the corps of Martial Augereau was placed in the pofition of Kbalas • The corps of Martial Nei was at Rothe. The head clusters were at Gera. " The Emperor was on the march to proceed to Jena. • The corps of Martel Souk wag on the much from Ctra, to take a more coorcnicut pofition upon the. Rnit road front Haunt burg t. Jena. " The pofition of the enemy was the following:— The King of Praia willed to commence hoßi- Utica on the 9th of Oflober, by bearing down his right wing on Franckfort, with his center on Wurta burgh, and his left wing on Bamberg. AU the divi- Sons of his army were chfpnfed for the aceomplint ment of thi, plant but the French army turning him opon the extremity of hi. left wing,was found in a few days at Saalburg, at Lobcntlein, at Schleitx, at I Gera, and at Naumburgh. The Praian army feet ing itfelf turned, occupied the days of the 9th, loth, t ith, and t zth, in calling in their detachments, and on the 13th formed itfelf into order of battle between Capelfdorf, being about 150.c00 men Rrong. „ On the 13th, at two o'clock in the afternoon, the Emperor came to Jena, and on a Call elevated Rat. I hetet by our advanced guard, reconnoitred the poll. ties. of the enemy, is order to ensorrivre in tech a way sanest day to force the different pages on the Sul, fo to fall nn—The enemy made a vigorous oppontion, and teemed by their difpufitions, on an inacceflible polition on the highway between Jena and WeirMe, to think that the French could not ketch out upon the plain without previoufly forcing that paffage. It did not appear poffible, in fa& to bring the artillery to play upon the flat, which was fo (mall that four battalions could fcarcely open out their ranks upon it. " The men were fet at work the whole night to make a way over the ruts, and at length tecceeded in bringing the artil:ery upon the height. " Mar (hal Davnufl received orders to defend the panes near Naumburgh and the defiles of Koefen, as the enemy wanted to march upon Naumburg, in order to reach A polds, and fall upon his tear in cafe he remained in the fituation he then was. " The Corps of Marfhal Prince Ponte•Corvo was defined to ft retch out by Naumburg, in order to fall upon the rear guerd of the enemy, in cafe he bent Prongly toward Naumburg or Jena. " The heavy cavalry, which had not yet come np with the army, could not be entirety brought on by mid day. The Sievelry of the Imperial Guard was at the Malice of 36 hours march, notwithßansling the heavy journey which it had performed fince left Paris ; but it was come to that moment of the war, when no (Ingle confideration fhould outweigh to deprive them of the advantage of beiog the fug to meet and fail upon the enemy. " The Emperor placed the whole corps of Mar ital Lannes in order of battle upon the level height, which the enemy teemed to overlook (they occupied a petition over againft it.l—Thin corps was placed under the a care of General Vigor ; each divifion formed a wing. Marfhal Lefebvre ordered the Im perial Guard into a Cram battalion upon the higbefl point. The Emperor kept the watch in the midft of his brave men. The night prefented a remarkable fpettacle s two armies. the one of which treaded its front upon a lire of fix hours march, fired the sir with ita lights; the other, the lights of which teemed to be brought iota one (mall point ; and in the one s as well as in the other, all watchfulnefs and motianoi The lights of the two armies were at half caucest fliot dinar:cc reit:mainly ; the fentinels were almoll ,l touching. and there woe not a flu& omit% elf either fide which could net be heard from the other. " The divilions of Marthal. Ncy and Soult took up the whole night in marchitik. At break of day the whole army was under arms.—Gazazt's divifion was difpofed in three ranks; the Left on the level height—Sachet's divifion formed the Right—the Im perial Guards occupied the fummit *1 a height Each of thefe corps bad their artillery in the little (paces between. " From the town and the neighbouring valleys the pedrea had been difcovered by which the troops which SOW not be placed upon the level height might ex aped themfelves in the eafieß manner, and this is Barely the Srft occafion when an army had to defile through fo (mall a pale. • - " A thick fog obksved thesis,. The Enspefotl paired before the differem lines he commanded his fuldiers to take care of the Pruffian cavalry while bid been deferibed as fo extraordinary; he bade dies re. member that a y ;:ar was not elapfed (Ince Mix was taken; that the PruGlan army, like the Auftrian then. was farrounded. bad been driven Beim their line of operations, and loft their magazines ; that they at the prefent flimsiest no longer fought fir honour but for a retreat ; that they alone fought to make them (elves an opening upon different points, and est the corps of the army which Gould let them pats would lots its honour and its glory. " To there at; • • g words the Ihidiers anfwered, with a loud cry of " Li vs onward!" The light troops began the anion. They opened a very brills fire. Good as was the pofition of the enemy he was neverthelefx driven out ; and the French army march ed out in the plain and began to arrange idea in battle. The Enemy's army, which on their fide had no other view than to fall on whenever the fog thould have cleared up. took up their arms. An army of Moon men from the left wing polled itfelf to cover the defiles of Naumburg, and to get poffeffion of the Panes of Koefen. But this was already forefialled by Mar (hal Davouß. The two other armies, one amounting to 80,000 men firong, placed themfelves before the French Army, which was opening out from the level height of Jena. The mill hung over both Armies, ladling two hours ; but at length was diXpated by the brightnefs of the fen. The two Armies mutually beheld each other at the diftance of We than cannon-lhet. The left wing of the French Army fupporting itfelf againa a village and the woods, was commanded by Martbal Augerean, The Imperial Guard (hewed their fire upon the centre. which was maintained by Marflial Lances; the right wing was drawn together out of the corps of Martha! Soule. Martha' Soult had nothing but ra (mall Corp. of 3000 men, purely compofed of Troops which bad wired of his Light Corps. " The enemy% army was numerous, and difplay. ed a Eae cavalry I their manoeuvres were mealy and rapidly executed. The Emperor had restudied to delay coming to an engagement for two hours, in order to watch the peados' which the enemy. flwauki take go/ tike &Ilion of the motaieg, and to give the needfary orderi to the troops, efpceially the cavalry, which tequired the greateft cue. Bet the ;mica ofity of the French was too ardent for him. Sevetai . battalions had begun to engage in the village of Hollaadt. He faw that the enemy was getting into motion to drive them out ; be gave immediate or ders to Marshal Lannes to march with expedition to the fupport of the village. MarOsal Soult had at- I tacked a wood on the right. The enemy hosing made a movement with his right wing upon our left, Mar fhal Augeteau was commanded to revile them, and in lets than an hour the aalon was general.— Two hundred and fifty Sr three hundred thoufand men with fevers or eight hundred pieces of artillery !tattered death in every direction, and exhibited one of the moll awful events ever witneffed on the theatre of hiftory. On one fide, as well as on the oth,,, Amery manauere was performed as if it were on a 4 parade. " Am9ng oar troops there was not for a arroment the leaf! diforder ; the viaory became ours in this moment. The Emperor had all along by him, be. fides his Imperial Gnat& a large body of troops, as a referee to all in anforafeen events. Martha' Sault having got podreffion of the wood, which occupied him two hours. made a move for wards. At that initant the Emperor gave order/ that the djeifion of French cavalry in referee fhoeld begin to take pat, and that the two new diirilions from the Array of Martial Ney Mould take Ration upon the field of battle b g (bettor. All the troops of the referee were adranceilo the foremoft- Lae, which being thus ftrengthened. threw the enemy ..to diforder, and they inflantly reared. " They retrieved therdeltres for 'about an hoar ; bnt were calf into dreadful confution, at the moment when our divifion of Dragoons and Cuirnffiers, bay. ing the Gratil Duke of Berg at their head, were abk to take a part in the engagement. There brat. Ca valiers, aware that the fate of the battle, efpceially at the condufion of the day, depended upon thesis. bore the ?ruffians down before them in great confu fion wherever they met them. The ?ruffian cavalry and infantry could not witheand thEfhetek. In vain did they form themfelees into a femme; five of their battalions were put to the rerst—srtillery, cavalry, infantry, all were furprifed and taken. The French came at the fame infant to Weimar as the ender, -who found thensfelees purfned for fit boars. " On our right wing, Marthall Dimon* did wm dere. Not only did he maintain his ground, but he followed fighting for the fpaee of three hours again(} the great body of the enemy's troops from the defiles of Koefen. " This Officer to a rillingnithed bravery joins a vaft deal of firnanefs, the fire recommendation of a warrior. He was fupported by Generals Gudin. Friant, Mound; Daultranne, Chief of the General Stall; and by the Ready intrepidity of his brave light corps. " The re(ult of the battle is fro! to 40,000 prifonen of war, 300 pieces oft • flisnft ma gazines and quantities of proviaone.""rimong the prifoners are more than twenty gaiters's ; strong others feveral Lieutenant Generals; one is Licgte nant•Genseal Schmettaa. The amount of the Infs of titit PrulEan Army is eaorsttous ; it is eiiinrated at above sooloo killed and wounded. Kiribati Moline, doff is wounded ; the Doke of Brunforick and Gene ral Rachel are killed, and Prisee Heavy a ProGa is wounded defperately. According to the accounts of deferrers, prifooers of war, and flags of truce, the diforder lad cortfulion in site remainder of the enemy's army is at. the utmoll. " On our fide, we have only to laMeat the loft of Brigadier Glitters' De Belli, a brave foldier : and the wound of Bride General Conroux. Among the killed are Colonels Verges of the sath Infantry of the Line, Latno , te of the 36th, Bar4negre of the 9th regiment of Huffare, Matigoy of the ath Chaf. fetus, Harifpe of the 16th Light Infantry, Dalett bourg of the tlk Dragoons, Nicolas of the 6ift of the Line, Viala of the 1411, and Higowilt of the toilth. " The Hain and Chsffeurs difplayed a valour on this day, which enaitles them to the highefl praife. The PrufGan Cavalry were never able to nand againft them, and all the affairs they have had with the Infantry were fortunate. " Of the French Infantry we Mall fay nothilli. It is known long (ince that it is the heft Infantry in the world. The Emperor declares, that the French Cavalry, after the experience of the two laft cam paigns and laft battle, has not its like. " The Pruffian army has, in this campaign, l'ft every point of :cues' in its line of operations. Its left wing, followed by Marflaal Dovonft, begins its to treat to Weimar, at the fame time that its right wing and centre take their retreat from Weimar upward. ' Naumburg. The confufion was therefore ezireiar4 7 - nary. The King was forced to retreat actor's the field at the head of his regiment of cavalry. " Our loft is tOOO to 1 too men killed, and 3. -.,c0 wounded. The Grand Duke of Berg is at this mu ment dole up to Erfurt, where is a corps of the enemy commanded by Martha' Mollendorf and the Prince of Orange. " The General Staff is occupied in preparing an official relation, which (lull make known with ceery detail all the different Ci.rps and Regiments that have dillinguithed themalves t to entitle them to the af. teem and acknowledgements of the nation, if all thing were wanting, they have tellified it anvil in I I .
