About 600 prisoners and 8 pieces of cannon were the trophies of this day. The General of Division Delzon, informs me, that the Bth had several engagements, which it supported with valour. 44 On the 26th, the King of Naples received orders to continue his march upon Witepsk, and me to move with a division to support the movement of the Ca valry.. I went before day to the King of Naples, and we together agreed upon the hour at which the movement should commence. 44 I ordered the 13th division to folloW the cavalry, and the 14th, and gu4rd, to follow the 13th, but ea sokaiim, and at an laout's distance, • * The route ran through a wood, .and the Bth was quickly engaged to open the road, which the enemy dispined with infantry. * About ten in the morning, the Bth, after havi o ng• drawn from the wood all the enemy's tirailleurz, met them formed, and holding an advantageous position' upon a piece ef_ground of considerable elevatieeti * . protected by a numeroui artillery, having bet .. them a deep ravine, and their *lett suppoited by a forest, so thick, that it was impossible for masses ta penetrate it without brealEing.
