EIGH ni BULLETIN OF THE ARMY OF ITALY. Head.quarter*, Gorizia, Nov. 24. The Army preserves the position it took on the left of Baure. The advanced guard, under the com mand of Gen. ESPAGNII; has drivsou the Enemy to Gauz, and in sev e ral . vigorous: charges have taken the groat road. A great part of their Infantry pro ceds through' the valley of- Idria to gain that of Oberleybach, I%v& companies of Light Horse pur shc them in that dire6tion, while our adbnced posts reconneitre as far as the intrenchments of Per vald, and dire& theMselves towards Leybach. On the approach of the Division of SEnAs to Trieste, the Austrians evacuated that place, where they left 700 wounded. A Corps pursued them on the road to Leybach, and took fifty men. Two lien - in - tents of Dragoons, supported by the Infantry; .advanced by our fell on . the Chinsa de .Pletz, which was guarded by the two Regiments of, Infantry, Strasaldo and Dengue,. With some Cavalry. All .the posts were abandoned on the arrival Of or Troops. The Ge-. neral.of Brigade, LAconA, • who commanded them,. received orders to penetrate Villach, and to try to open a communication with the Grand Army, the movements of which had doubtless occasioned the retreat of the Enemy, who appeared afraid of being surrounded. A detachment was also sent against Ponteba-Veneta,. Where' the Enemy, WhO were in • tree, did mot venthreto wait for us.. In these dif lerent movements we have made 400 prisoners.— The General in Chief left towards Padua the corps of Troops from NaPles. They have joined with the. Corsican liegiott i• and the ^ iCetlricl Julian Regiment has joined one of the Division's of the Artny.— Lieutenant General ST. ,CYIt, who commands thoSe united forces, observes Chiozza and Brendolo.— These Troops are prepared to fall on the Russians dud English, ifthe.rtiare toattetnpt the descent with which they, Jireaten the coast of Italy. NINTIIULILLETIN OF THE ARMY 01' ITALY. 'Head.quaiters at Gorisii,"Nov. The General in Chief had been informed ,by several reporta, and particularly- by a Letter from Gen..VIAL,.to our Anabassador.at ke:no, that a Corps of the Austrian Army, which was cut off in conßeettenCe of the Alanceuvres of the Grand Army, intended to descend' ;by the Tyrolean Mountains of 4;4. He calculated, that this column would endkvoer either to cross the line of-the Army, to unite itSelf With the Tr6Ops . in the Venetian territory, at to oiler re, by the uify of Felto mid Be . !Juno, a j nd io n Cth the wreck of Prince Ott t. Es's Army at Leybach. But whatever: diredien the Enemy might take, the situation ef the Army at . ISonto wes such,that a sufficient force could be detached to in' tercept them. The adranCed guatd, however, con tinuing n 4 march toWatds Eeybach, a colunin, consisting of 7000 Infantry, and 1.206 Cavalry, com manded by the Prince DE, RettAN, advanced on the 24th to 13assano, and might. easily have taken the detachment of 1500 men, which formed the gar-, rison. It proceeded to Castel liranco. As soon as Gen. Sr. CYR wits informed of this, he was COnVille- , ed that the Enemy Meant to cross our line, of the force of which they _doubtless were ignorant. He therefore male dispositions . for giving them a proper reception. The General in Chief, who had foreseen every thing, remained on his part pettedly tranquil, hut, that nothing might be left to the chance of events, he took measures for - bringing up, by forced marches, on the Piave, the Division et Grenadiers 'commatided by General PmeroNNEAux, and other Corps. 'The Grenadiers were directed to ascend the Piave by Il Bosco del Montello, atul to turn the . position of . 8354a110. The Division of - ;I,IetnANXE, which Was direded at the same time on Veuzone, was destined to reinforce the detachments sent to the twO - Pontebas, and to cut off all retreat from the Enemy. The General in Chief left the rest of tlie Troops on the Isonzo, under the commend of Gcn. Donasste, and procealed himself to the Piave .to superintend the movements he had direeted. General Sr. CYR thatia3uvred to reconnoitre the Enemy, and to stop him. Gen: NAVALE'S Regi ment had orders to march en the 26th, at day break, to Castel Franco. The Enemy arrived in the evening, and,- sensible of the difficulty of his position, anticipated the attack. He violently. on REGNIER'S Division, which received him with the greatest vigour, and soon repulsed him. The Enemy, hoWever, returned immediately to the charge, . but were received with the same firmness. 'Mean while Gen. Sr. CYR made a movement with the Polish Regiment, and turned the Enemy. The route was then contested all the way to Castel Franco Where our Troops arrived as soon as 'the Enemy. All who were not killed or taken on the fit.'l of battle Asked to capitulate. Six thousand fanny: and one hundred Cavalry remained in our power. This number was greater than we opposed to them in etledive combat, but they saw, from the dispositions which we made, that their destrudism was inevitable. The Prince De RonAzz, several Colopels, and a number of Officers, ate among, the prisoners. Six standards, twelve pieces Of cannon, and immense baggage, are also the re sult of this.viaory. We have wily to regret 'the loss of one hundred killed and womided, and we have recovered the prisoners taken from us at Bassano, A Corps of Croats, whichit is s.tpposed formed part of the column, is expeded ,to be 'tumid in the defiles of the wuntains. it is not likely that it can escape us. The advanced .guard makes each day new prisoners. The roads from 'dm to Leybach are covered with horses, waggons, end thousands of bhlletS.
