Tilsit, in. the ,Ringclorn of Prussia, .ne,'r the Niemen, 24 leiggues N. E. of konigibliry,h, Feb. it. a When you receive this Letter, yon.will perhaps have he.ird 7, he terrible battle taught three days ago, between our army and the Freneh. As I snit . - poseo you might. be vety uneasy respecting nay fate, I haiiten to satisfy you by the presentkletten ,No thing disagreeable has occurred to me, though I have been A whole day in. the rnidst•of a shower of balls and bullets. I know not how it was pbssible to come out of such a i'ceue of . desolatiOn hilt, after all, thank God, I have not received a scratch, and therefore am much more fortunate than most of the brave Officers of our regiment, Who have fallen. Those who are not killed, are almost all wounded. This battle has been more fatal than that of Ails-. terlitz.- . . " Our army has performed prodigies of valour. Though we have lost a liueriber of men, it is gene rally agreed, thlat it is 'an astonishing 'Circumstance not to have lost more; and this is looked upon as an etfeCt. of the excellent disciPline which prevailed., in the army, during the heat of ;the •.aaion i , and in the midst of such a fire'as never was seen. During the last three 'days, the question who were the victors, has been frequently asked among us. This. may appear singular ; hut in reality, 'J ' cannottsay which of the ,armies fought with the Most 'courage and firmness, or which did the most chief to the other ;, however, thi's is certain, that Wse Jost a very great number of men. tut as we have not kept possession of the field of 'battle, and, of course, have not yet been able to verify the results of the anion, there .is room to hope that a great part of the men who have hitherto been absent on the Falling of the rolls, have not perished. kis less :painful to acknowledge, that the enemy has made a number ; of prisoners. 4 . , " In. spite,of our losses, this memorable day has clone great honour to our arms. Every corps, every officer,., every private' man distinguished himself. .Our retreat after.the battle, is no proof that we haVe beenbeaten, We did not go to take a military po sition, bUt . merely to find an opportunity to come to an engaOment with the enemy at a time when we hoped be would not be in a situation to resist the 'Mass 'Of the faces brought to a6l against him. If we conqUered; other operations "would have imme diately hilloiyed; but otherwiSe it was our ditty to retreat, which.we are doing at this moment; 'and this only proves, That our enterprile has not had'ill the success which it prOmiseti. "As for the rest, I cannot our situation is the 'Most brilliant. The enemy has the advantage over lI'S, of making 'war '6OO Miles from his,oWn country, and living at the expellee of 'the vanquished. Should he, as it is thdught, arrive Upon Onr territory, the people of , our frontidis will . have two dreadful scourges upon them - at one tiMe. Islitheito our hopes have beer 'deceived in 'several We were told thatthe French would not expea us in the 'winter; but we found them collected in a number to withstand the 4lock of 'an finthense . focce. We 'are told that sicknesS earrieo them off by thou sands at 'a time ; but the'inautier in whic.h we passed the Bth of this month did not, mike it appear is if We had to do with sick - Men., It t i tine, we had reason to hope that NTiadczOir had set oil :for ?art's.: this was - egrially false; and ifit Wad been 'Con t radleted by the reports r Of the prisoners we "have tnade, I as sure you, 'dtiring the - battle, we were well persuaded that the Emperor was present."

" Prussian ZOatis„ r 3. . • _ A great battle Os fought in the environs, of this place on the gth. The linssian army' has-'been completely routed. Forty pieces of cannon, sixteen staujards, and from LU. to 12,000 prisoners, are the result of this anion.. The enemy, persuaded, with out.doubt,.that it was the Lmperor's intention to pursue them in their retreat without 'relaxation, did not think proper_ to take a moment's rest on the next,.nor on the second day after thebattle, but proceeded by fOrded niarchei. This, movement, diaated their fears, has rendered their loss 14till More Sensible x for they ,have 'lef't behind th em a great, number of itrag.4ler3, wounded 'men, horses, and a con,ideralile (itbutity of ar tillery and which have 'fallen- into our hands..

TbOse who rate It at the highi:st, do not make it exceed one third of the en s emy's : _ Though this baltre . has not had, according, to.appearance;a4 immediate result, military Men look upon it as decisive, as it'has Much tliscouraged the Russian army. •The Russian Offi cers, made prisoners, confess that measures had been pre-concerted in such a niarin&, as .to render all their subsequent Operations dependent upon their movetqent ; and that they had cakulated tron the Most brilliant success, with a view of 'restoring to the Russian a: - my the confidence it hadlost by the defeat of the Prussians."
