(The E.eiteenth hu,let•n is 5t..1 LINTZ, NOV. 6 The battle of Lovers has been very brilliant for the Bavarians. The Austrians occupied, beyond Lovers, an almost inaccessible defile, Ranked on the rigl:t awl left by peaked mountains. The summit was covered by Tyro t in chasseut s ; three stone forts securink the mountains, and rendering the access to them almost impossible. After a smart resistance, the Bavarians overthrew every thing, took i.OO pri soners, two pieces of cannon, and carried all the forts ; but, at the attack the last, Lieutenant- General Deroi, Commander in Chief of the Bava rian Army, was wounded by a pi•tol-shot. The Bavarians had twelve officers killed and wounded. 50 soldiers killed, and 250 wounded The conduct of Lieut.-General Deroi merits the greatest praise. He is an old Officer, full of honour, and extremely attached to the Eleftor, whose friendship he enjoys. All his time has been hitherto so occupied, that the Emperor has not yet been able to review the Bava rian Army, nor to become acquainted with the brave men who compose it. Prince Murat, after the capture of Enns, pur sued the enemy anew. The Russian army had taken a position on the heights of Amstellen ; Pi ince Mu rat attacked it with General Oudinot's grenadiers ; the battle was very obstinate. The Russians were driven from all their positions, sod left 400 dead on the field of battle, and 1,500 prisoners. Prince Murat gives particular praise to General Oudinot ; his Aide-de-Camp Lagrange was wounded. Kuala - Davuust, on his passage from Enns to Steyer, particularly commends the condua of Gen. fieudelet, who commands his advanced guard ; he has continued his march, and proceeded against Wahedoffen. All the intercepted letters state, that the move ables of the Court are already embarked on the Da nube, and that they are at Vienna, in emit:dation of the approaching arrival of the French. FIF 111 BULLETIN OF TOE ARMY OF ITALY, DATED NoVEMB It 5 . " After a few hours rest at 'Montebello, the army pursued the enemy towards Viceaza ; the gates of the City had been secured ; it 'was summoned to surrender ; a refusal was returned. A sentiment of humanity had influenced the General in Chief to summon it ; the passage must be forced. and the cannons and howitzers, direeted against the gates, and unforturataly against thr city itself ; we occu pied ouriaves in this work at the point of day. The precipitation with which the retreat of the enemy was condulled, obliged them to abandon a thousand wounded, and to leave 50111 C remains of o . +Agasities . . r in nor possession. In the coarse of the Jay, we hvi znode 4( prisoners. " The Austrians were retreating by the road of ilsssann ; the Army pursued them there, and con .tantly galled their rear. At the part where the road branches off to Basssno, and to Treviso, they proceeded towards this latter city, alter burning be hind them the bridge over the Terrent, near the Pals When we arrived at the village of St. Pierre, in Gu, we found it occupied by a corps of troop., which was vigorously charged. The village was carried after an A aion which gained us 600 more prisoners, and one piece of artillery. " We then marched towards the Brenta. The advanced guard arrived at the moment when the enemy was attempting to destroy the bridge ; brisk cannonade was commenced from both banks of the river, which was continued till night. " The army continued on the Right Bank. At four in the morning, 1 ordered many regiments of cavalry, with the light troops mounted behind them, to ford the river, whilst the bridge was repairing. The army soon after crossed it, and we arrived at Cittadella, time enough to cut jiff the rear posts of the enemy. At five in the evening we entered Cas trlfranco, and our chasseurs, by pushing forward, Iwere already in possession of Salvatrunda and Al bared°. The General-in-Chief felt the necessity of allowing .1 few hours to the wants of the army. On our march from Monwhello, we had made 1800 prisoners. The division of the sight has direded itself against Padua, which it occupies this day ; the division of the left has proceeded by the Sate Commune against Bassano, which it will occupy to- morrow." A letter from Milan, (says the I%lti,igt of the 19t..), dated Nov. 9, contains some details of the Archduke Charles, which are later than those in the .sth 11 , :it-tin of the Army of Italy. The following is an extract of it : " At the moment I now write, all Italy is to be . l evacuated by the Austrians. It was expe6ted they would endeavour to retreat by Styria and Carinthia, which might still have them some passages to escape the Grand Army. The Archduke Charles thought he could have a more expeditious retreat Omagh the Tyrol, and he will there also find him self placed hetwr-en two fires. The Austrian prisoners and deserters arrive in crowds; they display equal joy, at finding themselves amongst the French, and paiticutatly at getting bread to eat ; they cannot express the hardships they have suffered. A con trilrition of 400,0orir francs has been laid upon Ve rona, and a million upon Padua. The Austrians have abandoned Venice; but it is supposed to be yet occupied by the Russians. Joy is at its height in the kingdom of Italy " FROM THE HAMBURG!! CORRESPONDENTFN. VIENNA. NOV. 9. of The military occurrences which have taken place since those already given in this paper, are as follow :--- fr Captain Scheibler Von Meerfeldt, brother of (Feld-Marshal Count Meerfeldt, who was rationed :_on the left bank of the Danube, with a party of • about one hundred horse, and one hundred and - thirty infantry, having remarked, in the night of _sbe*th of November, that the enemy occupied th.- left hank. without any military precautions, at tempted an attack upon the post of Mathausen the same night, which war so successful, that the place WAS carried without the loss of a single man. The Commandant, an Officer of dragoons, and about thirty men. were killed in defending themselves in a house, which was forced ; two Commissaries. one General Officer, one Captain. one Lieutenant, eighteen dragoons of the 20th regiment, twenty three sappeurs, and five privates of infantry, with twenty-eight horses, were taken. " The Emperor of the French, Marshal Prince Murat, and the whole garrison of Lintz, where the divisions of Davoust and Ney arrived on the Id. were so much alarmed by this circumstance, that the garrison immediately retreated, and formed a line on the other side of the Danube. It was now day-light, and the Emperor arrived on the bank with his Staff, and must have seen the prisonars carried off. 'rhe Captain of our party has been promoted to the rank of Major. " The rear-guard of the Imperial and Russian troops were attacked near Remmelbach, in the af ternoon of the .sth, by the advanced guard of the enemy, consisting of ten thousand men, who were followed, according to the statement of the pri soners, by a body of 50,000 men. The Russians. notwithstanding the superior numbers of the enemy, charged them with the bayonet, and compelled them to fall back ; but General. Kutusow found himself under the necessity of retreating to Moelk, in conse quence of being outflanked, on his right and left, by a numerous column of the enemy."—(Court flea.
