These regiments had no saoner made a movement to occupy their' . positions aforesaid,' than they were at- . tacked about noon by a French detachment; under the command ofGeneral Suchet..-The fire between the latter and our advanced posts of caValry corn rtiened,-and was kept up tbr near three hours ; wherenPon the enemy was repulsed with Consider ' able loss. It -afterwards appeared, that this attack cm the On of the enemy was only with a view to recomeitre. "" On the following day, being the I4th-25th of 'when our troopa 'welt refreshing thorn se.ve,, but placed in oruer of battle, at 1,1 A.M. tiwy were at tacked by a Freiich army of 60,000-nwn, commanded. by Bonaparte in, person, and consisting. of tite corps of the Field Marshals Davoust .and Lames, and the detachnient of General Suchet. C. The first attack was made by the enemy in six columns, under Marshal ,DaVoust, with great im petuosity, aid direCted against our left flank, which consisted of tae detachment of Major General Bag, gowur, with a view to take Puitusk, to get into our rear : and to, cut otf our communication with the division of the Lieutenant General Aurep, which w,is posted beyond the river Narew, two leagues frotu Puitusk.. Soon after this, the van - of Major general Bar:lai De Tolly, on the • right ,flank, was likewise attacked by six ,o 1 the enemy's columns. During these attacks of the enemy, made upon both ''our flanks, he "had posted a chain of Horse Ja gers,- behind whom stood several columns, which were to tall upon our centre but the enemy's views upon- it were completely frustrated, owing to the powerful and well directed effea of Our batteries, which were ere6ted before our-front. " The impetuous attack made by Marshal Davoust with t 5,000 men,. in six columns, upon both flanks of the detachment of Major-Gen. Baogowut, ob;iged the latter to fall back,alittle,-as he had only between anti 5000 men with him but in his retreat he checked the enemy's-progress with the 4th regiment, of Jagers, which spread itself before the infantry. In the, mean While the Lieut.-General Count Oster man arrived with the. regiment •of Tula, and one battalion of the regiment 'of Pawlowsky Grenadiers to support him, aZd the enemy's further proaress was che4ed. Major-Gen. Baggowut, With the grena dier battalion of the regiment of Staroskolsk Mus keteers, and a battalion of the 4th regiment of Jagers,. then . threw : , himself, with' fixed bayonets, upon the centre column of the enemy, by, which he had been Fessei, whilst Major-General,Koshin, with the re gituent of M:jesty's, ; Body Cuirassiers, audt , xo squadrons_of .the, regiment of KargopolDra goo;;,s, penetrated to the.frout and - flank of that co and the result was, that the Nvhole Column was innnediately cut to pieces. ‘.‘ the,mean while, the other battalions of the . . 4th Regiment of Jagers; and the.Re ,, iment of Tarta . - rianklorse, with two squadrons of kiew Dragoons, attaelted the enemy's columns, 'Which had advanced from the. left, and coMp . elled them to retreat how- ever, the eue&ny receiving, an immediate reinforee 7 meht, advanced a second time with impetuosity, but Were . compLtely overthrown, as we had formed a sirm front of the Jagers, and these bad thrownthem eivits upon the enemy with fixed bayonets, and our cavalry had also broke through the columns with their sabres: Mille same time, Major-General Dorochow, with the'regiment of Isiurri- Hussars, made a pteme retreat before the other. columns of the went otrour right, ancl then suddenly turned about on the left-with his regiment, by which Svc 11-timed mancenvre he brought• those columns right (rico!) our batteries', -which made great havock ittuhrig tne;:enemy. , 4‘ Alf the rest of our cavalry; which was 'posted in Om front; and made partial attacks upon theenemy, , rliico.'_o orders to march through our front of infant ry, to leave an open, field for action, and to post it .seit.in the rear. „ . this moinent all our batteries opened their .nreon.the enenly s columns, which were advancing ag4nro c our centre, but which, in : com,c 9 nenceof the t;freo ot: these-bAtter ies, Were not only cheek -Lt.; ;; their proilfess, but also driven .back..

Barolait :De Tolly, which had taken a posi tion to cover otir right flank: The objet of the :enemy on this side was to break Oi;repulse our right flatik, and to cut off Our communication with a part ofthe army unc;er Count. Buxhovden, posted in the villages of Mokow and OstrOlenka. The attack of the French on this side was "vielent - and impetuous. Our advanced. guard,. notwithstanding a display' of _ the utmost valour and intrepidity oil the part of the commander and troops, was coMpelled to fail back, by which movement. - our battery, which kept in check'the enemy on the road from Neweiniasto; : soon felt into their hands but the Tenginsk regi ment of musketeers, in.conjaniAion with theJagerS, charged the enemywith the bayonet, and retook the cannon of which he had got possession. In 'the' Mean time, by .order of the Coptmander hi Chief, Gen. Benpingsen, a masked battery had been plant-, ed in - the•wood, and the cannon loaded . With grape- - shot: A - few discharges frOm this battery killed grent'niimber of theenemv, and checked ther-im .petuosity, But immediately after the enemy made dispositions to take the battery in reverse, and Gen. Barclai Dc Tolly was •a See . -onti-time - obliged to give way to superior nurnb6rs. General Benningsen, the moment he observed this movement, instantly,order ed to change front, and to throw'back the whole of the right, wing, to prevent an attack in flonk, 'at the. same time detaching the TsebernigoW, and, immediately after, the musketeers-of LithatOo reinforce Major Geu. Barclai De Tollti. - Major General .Barclai De Tully, as soon as he had formed a part of the infi . mtry which' he had with him, on the one side,. and.sent orders to Major-Gen. 'Prince Dolgorucki, to' march with the regiment oil Tschernigov musketeers on the Other side, ,boldly rushed forward at the Charge of the bayonet on the' enemy, drove them - back, and stopped the progress' of their other columns who were coining up. :gut the French, who still kept up afire of musketry .and artillery, did norabandon their intention of attack ing our right flank until the ComMander . in Chief took the resolution of attacking the enemy in his turn. With this view he ordered Lieut. General O. terman to move forward with the infantry of the left wing, 20 squadrons of cavalry to march from the ri'iht flank, and the 'battery under the command of Major Stawickti'to advance at the saute time, Which taking the enemy's line in flank, by a vigorous and well-directed cannonade totally touted and dispersed it. In the mean time the remainder o f our cavalry was posted in the centre, to keep that of-the enemy in check. The French fought desperately, but were at length compelled ' to yield to the uncommon brave ry of the Russian warriors,, the ability and resolution of the Commander, and the heavy destruCtive fire of the artillery, _ _ • " The battle continued frOm eleven in the morn: ing until seven in the evening-, and did not finish until it was completely dark. The enemy was beaten and defeated at every point ; but the darkness of the night, the inclemency of the . weather, -and the fa tigue of the troops, Kevented tbeplarsulto - ti. 3 enemy. _ "" In this battle we made about 700 prisoners ; and, according to the statement of some who were taken the day after, the enemy, besides three Gene rals who fell in the action, lost, in killed and Wound ed, about 10 ) 000 men. • The total of the loss onour sicie - arnou,nts, in killer and wounded to between 2or - 3000 men. As 'soon as correct returns shall have been received of the StaiYand 'other chief Officers killed and wounded, they shall be forthwith communicated to the public. " The Commander in Chief, General of Cavalry,. Baron Benning,sen, testifies, that the troops of his Imperial 'Majesty, who fought on this day, gave an ineNpreSsible proof of valour, and fronithe Generals to the ranks acquired never-fading glory by thcir firmness, _intrepidity, and zeal. lie mentions, in particular terms of commendatioo, the regiment of Jagers, who, as the enemy thennelves acknowledge, displayed, with the happiest effe6t, .uncommon degree of activity and address." - [Here follows a list 'of the Officers who particu,. lady distinguished themselves in the above battle. -Among them Generatßenningsen mentions, " Capt.
