Lono—The head-quarters of the Sovereig ns and the Prince Marshal, arrived yesterday at this place ; the necessity of the inve.iment of Plfazhourgh, which is on the g reat road from !'ll•iShollrg to Paris, and the march through the defile and passage Jt tile Vo.i:es with so large a part of the army, and nearly all the ~!illcry, made the undertaking of yesterday almost Herculean, the me and earr.ages were drawn up, by parties of soldiers, rocky that appeared inaccessible. ; the road had been made in the :pace of somit few hours, to avoid the fortress, and to shorten the march ; but the difficulties were too great, added to the intense heat of the weather, to get the trains and guns through, and the Field. Marshal has found himself under the necessity of balling this day. The accounts from Field Marshal Prince Wretle, state his belief of his having some corps of the enemy on his left, or in the dime. Lion of St. Diez or Itruyet es. "l he Marshal has received directions from Prince Schwartzenburg, in consequence of the joint request of the Duke of Wellington and )iarslial Blucher, to advance rapidly, It appears the Authorities at Nancy request Prince Wrede to ni:,intaiti order in the town& General Czernicheff fell in with a detachment of the enemy, on the left hank oldie Moselle., between Metz and Longvion, consist ing of between 2 awl 3000 men, one squadron of cu►rassiers, and so►ne artillery, which he attacked and drove back into Metz. General Colloredo's (the Ist) corps was sharply engaged on the 29th nit, between Donnemarie and Belfort with La Courbe's rear. guard, in which affair he took a great .uninber of prisoners, driving Vic French before him in all quarters; hip loss was three hundred pen killed and wounded. The Archduke Ferdinand pushed forward to Remiremont, to operate on the flank and rear of La Courbe, it he sle , uld remain bear Belfort. It is ruportpd that Rapp's cavalry from Strasbourg with two re giments of intantrv, are endeavouring to make their way to La Courbe. The Commandant of Toul has refused to surrender the place : that Maresall Made a sortie with XOO men, but was driven back with The communication is completely established between the Prince oyal of i'Vurtemberg and the Archduke Ferdinand. :the desertion out of Strasbourg is very great. she armies will continue their movemtuts torwatti raVidly as POS)llik bete the Seiue and U Ziatue. 459 The Bavarian army will be directed from Nancy on Ligny,Vetry t Les Franeves, and Fere Cliampennise. The Russian army follows in two columns • the right on Chafe's; Salineo, by Pont a Monsoon, St. Michael, columns; and Epernai. The left and the head-quarters of the Sovereigns, by Digny, St, Dizier ' Vetry and Montmiral. The Austrian or left wing of the army also operate in two column. The tot corps d'arnsee support the Russian left, and follows La Courbe from Betort towards Langres and Chaumont, or whatever direction he may take. The td corps, as your Lordship already knows, continues its operations iu the Vallee du Rhin, and blockades Straibourg. The 3d corps, being relieved there, marches by Mutzig,Mirecogrt, Vitry, and on Fere Champenoise. The reserve from Colmar directs itself on St. Diet and Mirecourt and unites with the 3d corps, taking care of the blockades of Schlett stadt and St. Maurice Aux Mines. General blannassy commands the blockade of llnnningen ants} Delon General Count Roxberg, Neu Breysach : and Cowl; Stillibmayer, Sehlettstadt. I fear J may intrude on your Lordship's time by a repetition of detail; but to point out the marches clearly. it is necessary continue ally to revert to the operations of the main corps. tour Lordship will observe, that by the separation of La Courbe anJ Rapp, and the possible detachments that either may have made, as aiso the uncertainty of Sachet's line of retreat, together with the number ne strong places we have to blockade, me shall be liable to have small corps and detachments of the enemrstarting up in different quarters; they may even gain particular successes in out rear; but the best precautions have been taken by the Prince Field-Marshal consistent with our scale of operations, and nothing essential can affect the grgpi; niovement. The ar►►►ies will be assembled at Pere Champenoise on the 14th. 1 have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) SIEIVART, The Viscount Castlereagh, K.G. &c. 6:e. P. S. Intelligence has just arrived, 'that the Archduke Ferdinand, in investing Neubreisach, had a sharp action. The village ref Wichelsheim was strongly occupied hy the enemy, but they were driven out by the Austrian righ»ent of Wurtemberg. The Arch, duke's advance was to be at St. Marce aux Mines, the Ist July, og which day the investment of Schlettstadt was to take place. Count Colloredo had another sharp action on the 29th, in the neighbourhood of Refuel. In consequence of the nature of th ground, the opposition was great, but the A ustt ian loss is trifling, Imperial Head-Quarters, Nancy, July 6, /W. My Lonn.—The Allied Armies of Austria and Russia continan their advance towards the capital of Prance ; there have been many sharp actions - with Gen. Lacourbe and Rapp, as also ou the aide of Marshal Sucliet with Gen. Frimont ; these I shall endeavour shortly to detail, and your Lordship will perceive, by the vigour and intre pidity with which the detached corps office armies, and the Austrian army of Italy have handled the enemy that opportunity is only want, ing tOr them to emulate the great example of the 18th June, which will live its the memory of these great military nations for ewer. To commence with the progress of the advance, :Marshal W retie, instead of blockading Tonl, threw bridges over the Moselle at quo nellray, and on the td had his head-quarters at Ligaiy. The Commanders both of Toni and Marstall'refused, on being summoned, to surrender those places. The Field Marshal has taken meagnes to invest them; but front • the impediments on the great line of road to unr advance, and the Corps Francs, which are in movement in different quitters in onr rear, and have attacked baggage. &e. 6:c. with success, the mareil has been slower, and the communications more difficult ; however by military it easures which haVe been adopted' here, the lines of communications with the rear will be better secured, and sonic Co. tonnes Mobiles will be formed, to clear the different passes of 04 Vosges, and the great forests and close country.

They charged into the town, when the guard at the gate assembling, and seeing that they had been surprised sod furred, twine.- ' diately shut it, and gave the alarm.
