The Guards at the same time occupied the suburb; be tween Frelei icks!reig. and Copenhagen, tlank,d by a detachment of the 79th. They dislodged a piquet of the enemy, who, in their retreat, concealed 13 three.pounders, which have since been found. All the piquiets of the enemy fell hack to the lakes or inundaii ns in front of the place ; our piqueti occupying their ground. In the alternuon the gar ris m spewed ttutlf on all the avenues leading horn the town, apparently with a design either to recover their ground, or to burn the suburbs. The several Generals immediately drove them in, each in his own front, and at the same time seized on all the suburbs on the Nilth Bank of the Lakes, some of which posts arc within four hundred yards of the ramparts. Sir David Baird's division turned and carried a redoubt which the enemy had been some days con structing, and which was that night converted into a work against him. The enemy set fire to the end of the suburb near est to the place, the upper part of which was occu pied by the Guards. and was now defended by them. In consequence of this general success, the works which had been intended and begun by us, were abandoned. and a new line was taken, withiu about eight hundred yards of the place, and nearer to it on the flanks. The mortar batteries in the advanced line made considerable progress. A heavy fire was kept up by the garrison on the suburbs and buildings near the Lake, which were strengthened as much as circumstances would allow.

Lieutenant-General the Bail of Illossln's corps, which had a considerable share in occupying the Suburbs, relieved the reserve, which moved into se cond line.

Sir Arthur Wellesley, with the reserve, eight squadrons of cavalry and the Horse Artillery, under Major-General Linsengen, the tith battalion of the line King's German Legion, and the light bri gade of Artillery belonging to the reserve, marched to Fosekild Kra. The gun.boats made an attack on the left of our position, and were twice driven it by the Windmill batteries, one boat having blown op, and several others having suffered considerably. The Guards severely cannonaded by the gun-boats ; the enemy likewise attempted a sortie, but was qu;ekly driven back. 27th. At day-break the battery of four 24-pound ers opened on the right, and drove in the gun boats, one of which was much damaged. Sir Ar thur Wellesley marched in two divisions to attack the enemy in front and rear at Koenerup, but he had moved up towards Kioge, upon which Sir Arthur took a position to cover the besieging army. Gene ral Peiman applied for an armistice of 36 hours, to remove the patients from St. John's Hospital.

(Signed) CATIICAILT. rce I.crd V[scount Castlctragh, Jr, Ic. ac .hgerberg, Aug 19. 1807. MT I.96ll3—After I had the honour to state to gout Lorda:iip, )esterday, the capture of six wag gons loaded with powder, and also of a considerable quantity of arms at Friederickstadt, which I have sent to M rjor-General Von Linsengen, I learned that a convoy of 189 waggons, loaded with gunpow der, and escorted by upwards of 500 men, was on its way to Friederickstadt, after having in vain attempted to enter Copenhagen by way of Roeskilde. I resolved to attempt to cut it off from Friedrickswerk, and proceed for that purpose to Krigume. I was in formed here that the s..id convoy had passed there two hour; before, that the escort was very much fatigued, and had begun to desert. I was told that Fr iedrickswerk was a very strong position. defends d by a corps called the Volunteers of that place, raised by the Crown Prince himself for the protec tion of the powder-mills and arsenal there. Al though the horses of my detachment, (w:ach was composed of one hundred light dragoons of the Ist. Light, including 18 dragoons of the 3d,) were very fatigued, yet I thought it adviseable to attempt to take the place by surprise. I approached Friedrickswerk at one o'clock of the morning.— Captain Krauckebberg, of the Ist Light Dragoons, succeeded in surpriziug an advanced piquet of nine moo. In arriving near the entrance, where we ca pealed to rind a battery, we met an Officer, who informed me that tho. Commanding Officer was willing to capitulate if I Would grant him honoura ble terms. After some conversation with Major Aid-du-Camp to the Prince, and Go- vernor of that place, he agreed to surrender with his corps, (860 sr: ong, includion Officers,) under the condition that he and his whole corps should not serve during the war, or until an exchange had taken place. I found a great quantity of powder, (about one thousand six hundred cenreurs) a number of guns and small arms. As I had no means to carry off the powder. and even no ti 1122 to destroy it, I was obliged to be satisfied with the promise of the Ma jor and all the Offi a:rs, upon honour, that neither powder nor stores should be issued to the Danes. As there was no means of getting waggons, I was obliged to be satisfied with carrying off the four guns, and half the arms of the corps which had surrendered, and which I have delivered to Major- General Linsengen. I left Friederickswerk this morning at five o'clock, and found myself $OOll after attacked almost in all the villages by peasants armed with forks, delivered for that purpose by the Danish Government, the greater part on foot s but some on horseback. The dragoons took about fifty of these peasants and fire horses without any loss on our side. On receiving information that all the roads in the woods before and behind Friedrickswerk were full of peasants, some of whom were armed with rifles. I changed my road by marching to the left, where the ground is open, and I discharged the peasants, after ex plaining to them the objet of our being in this country. 1 cannot conclude this long report without certi fying to your Lordship my great satisfaaion with the eondufl of the officers and men which I have had the honour to command on this occasion, and to recrommead to your Lordship's notice, Captain Krauckenberg, of the Ist Light Dragoons.

Having stated to your Lordship in my dispatch of the 22d the preparation of Inrec which was assembling. under Lieutenant General Castenschiold, and my intention of detaching a force to disperse them before they should be in a state to undertake any enterprize I have now the greatest pleasure in transmitting the report I have received from Sir Arthur Wellesley, to whom, with the assistance of Major-General De Linsengen, and Brigadier-General Stewart, that service was entrusted. The Major-General marched on the 26th of last month to Roeskild Kroe, and proceeded on the following day to attack the position at Horsieruk, which was occu pied ac cording to the last reports by the Danes; Major - General Litisengen having made a long detour towards the sea, for the purpose of cutting off their retreat, and attacking their rear. But finding that the enemy had moved off by the right to Kirze, Sir Arthur Wellesley fell back tnld liroe, extending to his left to cover the besieging arms, until the cavalry and infantry, who had made a forced march, had time to refresh. He then proceeded to attack and to defeat the enemy in a general actioo. The de route appears to have been complete. Major-General Oxholm was within a mile of this ac tion, in his way to join General Castenschiold, with a corps collected in the Southern Islands, which had got over. Ile endeavoured to story the fugitives, but could make no effectual resistance ; tins corps would have endea voured to connect itself with some sortie from the place, and would soon have been troublesome. Sir Arthur Wellesley has onnsed;;;the evader of the Island to disarm and quiet the country. The only corps which appears to have kept together is the cavalry; but by the I.e.t account! these have 'ueeil loond by the and will be followed up. The General and his Officers, who are mostly of their Militia, have been released on a very strict parole ; the General being respotoilde for them ; but their oleo, 1500, to which near 100 have since been added, are d in his Majesty's line of battle ships; the dread of which will, perhaps, induce the relnaillilla .11d1114 of this de scription to he averse to quitting their Wines. I trust it will appear that time affair of the 29ih, at KlOge, is as ta•dial at it is brilliant. I lone the honour to be, &c. (iignetl) • CATM CA RT. The Viscount t....stkre..gh, !Lc. kc.
