- !SI P. S. Lim., Ten, a. m. March 11, IP.ll.—The attack continued timing the whole of yesterday. The plain, below the city of Law), is interspersed with villages and stria!! woods, which became. the !COW of very warn] anti oh tinate colitests. A wood near the vil lage of Clary, on the right of the positinn, was taken'and retaken four or live ditkrent time, and remained filially in possession of the allied troops. The - infantry of Gen. IVirizingerode's corps, muter' the command of Gem Woronzoff, were the troops engaged there: in the centre and lett of the position the enemy maintained himself;' and at about half an hour before sunset, he threw forward a body of skirmishers , supported by two battalions of infantry - Ole rest of his army remaining in restive), and attacked the village of Semilly close under the u the. own : b u t a battalion, of Prussians; , of (ten. Bultm's corps, threw itself into the road, and, supported the tire of the troops on each flank, compelled him to retire in dis order and with loss. . This was the last operation attempted during the day. • The fires of his bivouark were apparent along a very extended line, .at the beginning .of the night ; but in the morning it. was ob served lie had retired, and the cavalry of the advanced guard are at this moment in pursuit of him towards Chavignon, on the road to Soissons. Thus, during two days of snecessive attacks, the enemy has ex perienced nothing butilefeat and discomfiture. The efforts of all his force have been broken against, and recoiled from the bulwark %thick this tine position ha; afforded. The absyuce of the corps of D'Vork, Kleist, and Sackett which were in the morning pursuitrg the remaindt r of the troops ;hat had advanced from Rheims, and which could not be recalled in time , prevented any active offensive operation Irving undertaken yester day. But success had crowned the efforts of these corps in other respects, by the capture of between time and four thousand prison ers, besides a great ynantity of aninumition and baggage, and forty five pieces of cannon have been already brought in. The intended future operations of this army have not yet been promulgated; but I apprehend they will be altogether of au offen sive nature. I have the honour to be, &e. (Signed) 11. LOW E, Colonel.
