The 7th French corps, sup ported by a strong reserve, then attacked and carried the village of Gross Belli), whllst Oudinot proceeded upon A hren dortf. The possession of Gross Berin placed the French within Only 1000 toises (six thousand feet) of the centre of the Swedish camp. It was therefore necessary to drive him from such an advantageous position. Bulow's troops was charged with the attack : it advanced with " the calmness that distinguished the soidietsof the great Frederick in the • seven yeats war." The cannonade was warm for several hours. The enemy also advanced boldly from the village against the camp, and both cattle in contact with the bayonet in the plain that spread between the village and the camp, where several charges of cavalry were made against the Duke of Padua's (Aregids) corps, which did honour to the Pripsians. The Swedish and Russiab army remained in battle array, and waited the deploying of the other corps of the enemy, to attack them. Winzingerode was at the head of 10,000 cavalry, and Count De ‘Voronzow commanding the Russian infantry. Marshal Count Stedenghcr was in front of the Swedish line, and ltis cavalry in reserve.

Since writing the above, we have received advices from the opposite coast of France. They do not come in an of shape, nor are they indeed sufficiently authenticated to command explicit belief, yet, from the general aspect of affairs, they bear a strong internal appearance of even more than probability. They state, that the discontent prevailing in France, to a mai Iced and great extent, has not been liessened by the publication of the news from D esden The reports of de feats 'snst , ined near 11:41in, were more eagerly circulated than the official news; and it is confidently asserted,lthat not withstanding the late battles, the whole French fwee had again concentrated in and about the Saxon capital, fiur its d, ce.
