Eaftindiei, Triricamote from thel
French, and all the spice ifhods of I
the Dutch, have fallen into their

of near four millions sterling. The
Cape of Good-Hope is also theirs. In
the Weftindies they have possessed
thtmfelves of Martinico, Grenada, &
St. Lucia, with part of St. Domingo.
To balance this, they have fuffered
much loft in their commerce from
the French cruisers : and their acqui
sitions in the Weftindies have been /
attained at the expense of many thou
sand lives of their best soldiers & sea-j
men. If recent account are to be re-;
tied on, the British colonies of New-|

Extract of a letter from the General of divi
sion Kleber, Commander of thejrigh,
Wing.:,
Head- Quarters, at Adc^orf,
ZOtb Tbermi^or. ,
AFTER the entry of the Rep&,
licans into Bamberg, we were inform
ed that a column of the eneray had
remained some time at Coburg, and
at Lichtenf&s, ind^b, continued iti
; route to Egra ; having nothing to ap
; prehend from that quarter, twp divi
ihops fyom the left were ordered to
Ipits the Rednitz, and co diced their
;march by Forcheim and Eberm,p
;fade, while the divisions of the right
were to eftablith themselves behity;
the R^ub Eberaeh: this moventefe
was executed the 19th, and produced
/bloody adion between the cavalry
of the enemy and chat of the division
jOT Gen. Lefebvre. —The plain be-
I yood Bamberg is immenle, and pre-;
I fents the greatest advantage to that
; army which ho the @oft numerous
cavalry= to difpl&y ; thui, in this
view, the enemy had resfon to ex
ped the most brilliant (ucctffes. In
the mean time, the cavalry of Gen;
I Lefebvre arrived; it was compos'd
jof fix fquadroni and of the 8;h regi
ment ot Cuiraffiers ; it had scarce
time to take breath, when the signal
of battle was given them ; it passed
Ithe village of Strullendorf with ^0 m
!credible impetuoficy, attacked, & de
:feared the firft pofty of the enemy,
Icroffed the village of Hirfchaid, and
displayed themselves in the phio, in
presence of the enemy, who were in
finitely more numerous. Here the
charge commencedq and the enemy
4W n B unable IQ tefift the firft Ihock,
gave way in disorder ; but soon im
proving their great foperiotity, they
displayed themfeJves^ our left, and
threatened our flank —Geo. Riche
tance who perceived them§ flew with
a few platoona to meet them—then
the action became desperate, and the
coefufion complete : in the mean
time each footer rallied at the voice
of his chief, and they again found
then,felves in pretence of the enemy.;
— A second charge took place ; al
ready , few squadrons were on the
point of reaching the village, when
Capt. Prudhomme of the firft regi
ment of Chaffeurs, by hit voice, his
countenance and firmoeft, checked;
this retrograde movement, and
brought them back to the com
mt. Notwithstanding the aftenify
ing valour of our troops, the etemy
by a desperate attempt were on the
point of Scoring the viaor r , which
they wboldtave effeßed, had not the
Bch regiment of Cutaffiers presented
itfelf at.the very ioftant it did—it
came from the village of Hirfchaid,

few tat^otra and fquidrotU into the
vilhgei near the moueb of the river
of Raub Eberaeh. Gen, Grenier
was to drive them from thence —tie
gave orders for this porpofe to gene

obstinate battle of more rhah thre'e
hours, effected to di(lodgethe eßerriy
and to pursue them at far 2$ the

must be very cprfiJerable ; the brave
Gen. Richepanfe was wounded by a
stroke of a fibre, in the arm. Chief

eighth regiment of Cuiraffieri peril
ed by a stroke of a broad sword ; this
brave and Worthy officer carried with
him the regret of (he whole army.
The enemy has taken its p fi ion up
on the right b^rk of the Rednhz, be
tween BbefiriiMhdt and Fotcheirn,
and on the left back between Ferch,

Yeftcrday, the div^on under the
orders of Gen. Lefebvre, tiireded its
march by the river Wifent, and lifter
having driven every thing which it
found upon the tight bitk, it took
its politico in advance of Trugen
doiff. The enemy were Obliged af
ter an aaion of an hour, to abandon
the post of Ebermsoftadr Lefeb
vre finding himfelf thuimafter of the
two banks of the Wilent, was ena
bled to fend paroles upon the fear of
the enemy. The division under the
orders of Geo. Coland was ordered
to quit its pofrion under Bomber,
to march by T'orchtem, to attack and
dislodge evtety thing which it might
find irr the field, defined to cover
that place. The enemy were in force
in the plain and upon the heights, &
Geo. Wartetflebeß commanded there
in perron, ^ The advanced guard :

were received by a oifch&rge of four
teen pieces of cannon althd' h^d only
two to oppose them; he did not
however, tofe countenance, and unit

difchargea, he e ffeded dislodging the
enemy from the firft position. Gen.
