The Duke of Ragusa attacked that village. Ge neral Grouchy, at the head of the cavalry, turned the enemy's right by the villages and the woods, and advanced a league beyond the enemy's position.— While the village of Vauchamp wad vigorously at v.cked, and as vigorously defended, . taken wind re. taken several timed, General Grouchy arrived in the rear of the enemy, surrounded and sabred three squares, and drove the rest into the Woods. At the same moment the Emperor caused a charge to be made, by our right, by his four squadrons da service, commanded by the Chief of Squadron of the Guard, La Ilisse. This charge was as brilliant as 'fortunate. - A square of two thousand men was pierced and taken. All the cavalry of the guard then arrived at a sharp trot, and the enemy was pushed sword in hand. At two o'clock we were at the village of Fromentieres ; t h e enemy had lost 6,000 men made prisoners, ten colours, and three pieces of cannon. The Emperor ordered General Grouchy to ad. vance upon Champ•Aabert, a league in rear of the enemy. In effect, the enemy continuing his retreat, arrived' on that point at night. He was surrounded on all sides, and all would have been taken- hid the bad state of the roads permitted twelve pieces of light artillery to follow the cavalry of General Grou chy. Nevertheless,. though the night was dark, three wares of their infantry were broken, killed or taken, and the others were bitskiy pursued as far as Etoges ; the cavalry also took three pieces of . cannon. The Russian division formed the rearviard ; it was at tacked by the Ist regiment of marine of the Duke of Ragusa, charged with the bayonet, broken, and lost one thousand pisvners, with Lientettant.General On: ro u s giff, who coinmanded it, .and several Colonels. ihe results of this brilliant day are ten thousand pri soners, ten pieces of cannon, ten colours, al • a great number orshaidinemy killed.

ANOTHER LETTER—SAME DA l'E. • " Fatly this morning (between one and two o'clock) a person dressed in a Colonel's uniform, and a Star at his breast, as if the kisignia of some Order, arrived at the Ship inn, and gave direc tions for a s Chaise and four to be got ready immediately to take hint to London : he stated he bail just landed from a boat from France (part of his clothes being wet, as if done in stepping to tile shore), and was the bearer of most Important dispatches, the chief contents of which were, that the Allies had complealy beaten the French army, and --Ennetrairtz was left dead on the of battle.

No one at Dover knows any thing of the arrival of any Boat, and altogether the affair seems very mysterious." ' , . French Papers, to the I7th, arrived last night.— They are. fled with interesting matter. The regu lar Official details of the series of actions from the 7th to the 15th inst. inclusive, are now before us. They are sufficiently copious to ,enable us to take a clearer view of the important operations of the contending armies than we have been able since the Allies crossed the Rhine. From Drienne Bor.IPARTE retreated upon Troyes, and afterwards upon Nogent, on the Seine, oc tispying the line of this river.—His Conqueror, the intrepid BLUCHZR, Seems to have pushed forward to. wards Paris by another route. He seems to have kept to the line of the Marne, occupying Chalons, Epernay, Chateau Thierry, and La Ferte. At the latter plaice his advance met with the first serious check. MACDONALD had been driven before him upon . Meaux, within thirty miles of Faris. Upon hearibs. of MACDONALD'S perilous situation BONAPARTE.re.. 1101VO41 to support him with the elite of his army. On the 10th, therefore, he fell upon a Russian carps at Champ-Anbert with a most overwhelming force, and compelled the Geneml who commanded, with all fps Officers, to surrender. Four thousand Prisoners are claimed on this occasion. That this reverse was occasioned by a too precipitate advance of some part of the Silesian army is evident, for we he:r of a concentration of their forces immediately taking place at Montmirail, about )4. miles westward of Chautp-Aabrt. We are parrigsliCitt- Lutist. the directienl6he movements (Attie Allies, beratik tie are convinced that nothing like a pell-mell retreat took place, as the French statements give out. At Montmirail, therefore, the grand struggle took place. —BoNapaaTa must have had • in the field at least 100,000 men. He tells us that the Silesian 'army amounted tb 80,000 only. It was of course annihi lated, according to the Mositeur. We are of a con trary opinion. The Allies seem , to have made a most. heroic stand, for we - dad that Nay, MAVEN BER TRAND, and Le sabers, wese all engaged. The Young Guard, the Old Guard, and some other Guards we never heard of before, were also in close encounter. The villages' in the line of operations were take and retaken math times, and night put an-end to the %west. Next day. (thwllth) the Allies moved upon Chateau-Thierry Vicenellt undCr, for we find them successively bring6guP fru . sh divisions of troops to form their rear-guard. It am - not be true. therefore, that they fell into confusion'' and abandoned every thing. The former absurd, report of the French pursuing them pe/Itmell through Chateau-Thierry, is flatly contradicted . by the dr. cumstance of PrinceWitalast of PRUSSIA having bees posted there with a corps of 2000 men, to cover the passage of the Marne. The divisions of Generals SaccxEm and' Vote YORK only were engaged in the engagements above men tioned, and BONAPARTE commanded against them in person. Pt.vcasn does not seem to have been per sonally engaged until the 13th. On this day we find him coming in Contact -with MARMONT at Etoges, whom he seems to have handled rather roughly, for this gentleman retreats during the night upon Mont a distance of nineteen or twenty miles. Bo riaeAltxtc, who was following up what he conceived to be his advantages over Generals SACKEN and'VoN Teak, at Chateau Thierry, suddenly returned to Montmirail upon the 14ah, to support MARMONT.— Here a second desperate battle took place on that day—the French claim a victory, at the expence to the Allies of 10,000 prisoners, ten standards, and ten pieces of cannon. There is something too much of the tnelo-drame in all these round numbers, to entitle them to pass muster with an experienced newspaper reader. AU that can be fairly said of these boasted victories is simply this :—BONAPARTE has succeeded in check ing the advance of the Silesian army for a few days. It will, of course, reappear to the incessant annoyance of the enemy, as it did on the Eatcbach, the Elbe, and the Elster and while BLUCHER is the Comman der, we cannot doubt the success of every enterprise in which he is engaged. A profound silence is maintained in' all the tiesillh" statements respecting the onavemedu cf Mb &OM . ARTZRNBILIG% army. Hat he reached Paris by the Seine, while BLUCHICK fOUlla employment for 80. NAPARTE Oil the Marne We apprehend that the next arrival from the French ciAst will announce this highly gratifying intelligence. _ As we have already intimated, it is difficult from the French accounts to uuderbtand auy thing cor rectly respecting the operations of the contendin g ; armies. We may remark, that in the best informed political circles, it fit believed that all &mimes ovements, which, according to the Moniker, gave •• Important victories to the enemy, were in fact mere feints on the part of that Able commander, for the purpose of diawing off BONAPARTL 3 S attention from Prince SCHwARTZENBERC 9 who is in the mean time pushing for Paris. The object of the Allies, it is rumoured, was, if possible, to obtain possession of the Arch-Duchess Of Austria, MARIA LoutsA, in orderto resco,t her from. any act of violence that might be retaliated on her persen En the event of her husband's complete defeat If they succeed in seeuri4 her person, it is added., that the Alliei will immediately throw off all dis guise ; and, if circumstances shall render the mea sure advisable—that is, if the French people shall mi• nilzst a proper dispoiition, an opportunity will be afforded to them to manifest their Layalsy to the Bourbon dynasty. - - We have , to add, however, that strongly as this is insisted on in some circles, the Allies have in no way cummitted themselves on this question : nor will they —every thing will depend on circumstances which time alone can unfold.
