SUPPLEMENT TO THE LONDON GAZETTE, TUESDAY, JULY 11.
An account of the Battle fought near Aspern, on the Marchfeld, on the 21st and 22d of May, 1809, between the archduke Charles of Austria, generalissimo of the Imperial Austrian armies, and the emperor Napo- leon, commander in chief of the French and allied armies.
[CONCLUDED.]
Fourth and Fifth Columns.
These were both composed of the corps of lieut. gen. prince Rosenberg on either bank of the Russbach, and directed their march from their position to the right and left of Doutsch Wagram.
The fourth proceeded through Roschdorf straight to Esslingen. Colonel Mardegg of Schwarzenberg's Hufans conducted the ad- vanced guard.
The fifth directed its march towards the left in order to go a circuit round the little town of Enzersdorf, and drive the enemy out of the place. It was reinforced by Stiptic's hussars, under the command of col. Frolich. Lieut. gen. Klenau led the ad- vanced guard of both columns.
As this circuit round Enzersdorf obliged the fifth to describe a longer line, it was ne- cessary for the fourth to advance rather more slowly.
Enzersdorf, however, was quickly taken possession of by a detachment of Stiptic's hussars, and of the Wallacho Illyrian fron- tier regiment, as it was already for the great- est part evacuated by the enemy from whom no more than thirty prisoners could be tak- en.
Both columns now received orders to ad- vance upon Esslingen.
The fourth in close columns of battalions of Czartorisky's, archduke Louis's and Co- burg, who were twice successively attacked by upwards of 2000 of the enemy's heavy cavalry; but these were each time put to flight by our brave infantry with considerable loss.
Of the fifth column, two battalions of Chastelar's advanced directly upon Esslin- gen, while two battalions of Bellegarde's were ordered to penetrate the left bank of the village, and the small contiguous wood. Two battalions of Hiller's and Sztary's, be- sides the archduke Ferdinand's and Stiptic's regiments of hussars, and two divisions of Rosenberg's light horse, were in the plain in readiness to support them.
These combined attacks were made twice successively, with uncommon intrepidity; the enemy's troops were repulsed on every point, and driven into the village of Esslin- gen, which had been set on fire. But as the enemy's army was drawn up in several lines between Esslingen and Aspern, and met each new attack with fresh reinforce- ments, because the safety of his retreat de- pended on the possession of this bridge, our troops were obliged to abandon it at the ap- proach of night, and to wait, under arms, the arrival of morning.
The reserve corps of cavalry had march- ed in two columns, under the command of General Prince of Lichtenstein, and ad- vanced upon the New Inn between Rasch- dorf and Brietenlee. General Count War- tensleben with Blankenstein's hussars, con- ducted the advanced guard.
No sooner did the enemy perceive the general advance of the army, than he placed the bulk of his cavalry, supported by some battalions of infantry, in order of battle be- tween Esslingen and Aspern, and com- menced a brisk cannonade upon the columns of Austrian cavalry as they advanced.
Prince Lichtenstein directed his columns to march forward in two lines, on which the enemy detached four or five thousand cava- lry from his position to the right by way of Esslingen, and excited some apprehension that he would impede the progress of the fourth column or even break through it. — The Prince therefore ordered 4 regiments to the left, and kept the second column form- ed in two lines, till he was convinced that the fourth column would not meet with any im- pediment to its march.
During this movement the remainder of the enemy's cavalry also advanced with the greatest confidence, towards the right wing of the Austrian. They were received with a firmness which they probably did not ex- pect. The intrepidity of the cavalry which had marched up, particularly Maurice Lich- enstein's regiment, and the archduke Fran- cis's cuirassiers, the former headed by its gallant colonel, Roussel, frustrated the re- peated assaults of the enemy by counter-at- tacks, by which they at length put a stop to his impetuous advance and completely re- pulsed him with considerable loss. In these conflicts, the French general of division Du- ressnel, equerry to the emperor, was taken prisoner a few paces from him, as was also general Fouler, equerry to the emperor after having been slightly wounded. Notwith- standing the fire of musketry which now en- sued, the prince ordered a general advance, by which the enemy was straightened in the alignement between Esslingen and Aspern, but on account of the flanking fire at Esslin- gen could not be pursued any further. The fire of his guns was answered with spirit by the horse artillery. About seven in the e- vening three thousand horse were again de- tached towards the point of union between the cavalry of the corps of reserve and the left wing of prince Hohenzollern, and fell en masse upon the brigades of cuirassiers of ge- nerals Kroyher, Klary and Siegenthal; but by the steady intrepidity of the Blanken- stein's and Riesch's regiments, who with the utmost gallantry made a sudden attack on their flanks, his cavalry was again repuls- ed, and part of it, which had falten upon some regiments of the new raised levies, placed in the third line, was cut off, and there taken.
Meanwhile night came on, and it was pas- sed by the prince in the best state of prepar- ation on the ground which he had gained from the enemy.
For the first time, Napoleon had sustained a defeat in Germany. From this moment he was reduced to the rank of bold and success- ful generals, who, like himself, after a long service of destructive achievements, expe- rienced the vicissitudes of fortune. The charm of his invincibility was dissolved. No longer the spoiled child of fortune, by poste- rity he will be characterised as the sport of the fickle goddess. New hopes begin to a- nimate the oppressed nations. To the Aus- trian army the 21st of May was a grand and glorious epoch, that must inspire it with a consciousness of its strength and a confidence in its energies. Overwhelmed by our ir- resistible infantry, its proud opponents were extended in the dust, and the presence of their hitherto unconquered emperor was no longer capable of snatching from the heroes of Austria the laurels which they had acquir- ed.
Napoleon's glory was obviously at stake. New efforts were to be expected on the fol- lowing day; but he was also obliged to fight for his existence. By means of fire ships sent down the Danube, the archduke had caused the enemy's bridge on the Lobau to be broken down, and its repairs would take up several hours. Meanwhile Napoleon had already, in the evening, been joined by the corps of gen. Oudinot; and all the dispose- able troops followed from Vienna, and the Upper-Danube, and were transported across the river in vessels as fast as they arrived. The Archduke on his part, ordered the gre- nadier corps which had not had any share in the first engagement, to advance from its po- sition near Gerasdorf to Brietenlee; and the short night was scarcely sufficient to com- plete the respective preparations for the com- mencement of a second tragedy.

The Second Grand Battle on the Danube.
We have made a great effort to translate and publish the official bulletin of the battle of Wagram, which was fought in sight of Vienna. The articles published in the de- mocratic papers of this morning are mere aggravated rumors; all their dates being su- perceded by the bulletin, except the armis- tice, which is not contained in our file and which we have therefore copied from the American of this morning.
We shall give further translations on Monday.
As the armistice was made several days after the battle, it is evident that it was not immediately compelled by it; and as the terms of it exclude the French from all Hun- gary, Moravia and Bohemia, the strength of the Austrian monarch is far from being exhausted. Of the 200,000 men, with which the archduke commenced the conflict the French do not pretend that he lost more than 60,000, and it is probable that the num- ber is vastly less. Hence by their own state- ments he must have 140,000 men left. But the attack having been made by the French —and the bulletin plainly evincing, that it was a drawn battle, we make no doubt, that the French loss has been tremendous.
The affairs of Europe are not therefore settled: and it is certain that the soil of Germany will drink up much more blood of her sons before they will become the irre- deemable slaves of the Corsican.
Latest from the European Con- tinent.
We have hastily made the following translation from the Hamburg Correspon- dent of the 21st July, with which we have been favored by a gentleman of this city.
MUNICH, July 12:
Twenty-fifth Bulletin of the Army.
WOLKERSDORFF, 8th July.
Passage of the arm of the Danube to the Island of Lobau.
On the 4th at 10 in the evening general Oudinot embarked 1500 of general Cou- roux's voltigeurs on the great arm of the Danube. Colonel Baste with 10 gun boats carried them out and landed them beyond the confluence of the lesser arm of the isl- and of Lobau in the Danube. The batte- ries of the enemy were soon silenced and he was pursued from the wood to the village of Muhret.
At 11 o'clock in the evening the batte- ries planted against Enzersdorff received orders to begin to fire. The howitzers re- duced this unfortunate small city to ashes, and in less than half an hour the enemy's batteries were silenced.
At 2 o'clock after midnight, the army had [the figure is illegible] bridges, and the left wing debouched, under the protection of the batteries 1500 toises below Enzers- dorff, and at the right at Wittau. The corps of the duke of Rivoli (Massena) composed the right wing, that of Oudinot the centre, and Auerstadt's (Davoust) the left wing. The corps of the duke of Ponte Corvo (Bernadotte) of the vice roy, and of Ragusa (Marmont) the guard and the cui- rassiers composed the 2d line and the re- serve. The great darkness, a heavy storm and a rain which poured into the streams rendered this night as dreadful, as it was favorable to the French army, and glorious as it was to eventuate.
On the 5th, at the earliest dawn, every man perceived the emperor's plan, who was now with his army in order of battle at the furthest extremity of the enemy's left wing, had turned all his intrenchments, rendered all his works useless, and had compelled the Austrians to move out of their posts and to give him battle upon ground which was ad- vantageous. This great problem was ac- complished, and without passing the Da- nube any where else, without even any sup- port from the works, the enemy was oblig- ed to fight three quarters of a league from his redoubt. Now was anticipated the great- est and most happy result.
At 3 in the morning, the batteries, which played upon Enzersdorff, had produced such an effect that the enemy was fain to take possession of it with 4 battalions. The duke of Rivoli ordered his first aide-de- camp St. Groix to march against it, of which he possessed himself without much opposition and captured every thing in it.
Count Oudinot surrounded the fort of Sachsengang, which the enemy had de- soned, compelled 900 men which defended it to surrender and took 12 pieces of can- non. Now the emperor ordered his whole army to display upon the immense plain of Zeisdorff.
Meanwhile, the enemy who had com- mitted an error in his plans, recovered from his astonishment, and endeavored to recon- some advantages on the new field of battle. For this purpose he detached many columns of infantry, a great number of artillery, all his cavalry, as well of the line as of vies, in order to be possible to outflank the right wing of the French army. When he took possession of the village of Reu- dorff. The emperor ordered count Oudinot not to take this village, and ordered duke of Auerstadt to pass on the right and direct himself against the headquar- ter of the archduke Charles, as he was com- ing to march from the right to the left. From noon till nine o'clock in the eve- ning we manoeuvred in this vast plain. We took all the villages, and as we approached the heights of their entrenched posts, they tired from them as though through ex- haustion. The duke of Rivoli caused them to be possessed of without opposition. In manner we got into our power, the village of Esslingen and Gross Aspern, and after the 40 days work of the enemy was re- totally useless to him. At Rachsdorff, the duke of Ponte Corvo caused to be tacked and taken, he met with some re- sistance. The enemy was every where flight and annihilated by the superior our fire. The immense field of battle re- mained covered with his fragments.
BATTLE OF WAGRAM.
Greatly dismayed by the progress of the French army, and its great results occa- sioned almost without an effort, the enemy ordered all his troops to march, and in evening took the following position: right wing extended from Stadlau to dorff, his centre from Gernsdorff to gram, and his left wing from Wagram Neustedel. The left wing of the army was at Great Aspern, its centre Raschedorff, and its right at Ginz- In this order night came on, and we ed for a great battle the next morning. position of the enemy was reconnoitred throughout, in order to hinder him from any system, after we should take poss- of the village of Wagram in the night. that case his line already extended, pre- ous, and surprised by a change of must have suffered the different corps mixed without order or object, and the fair would soon be terminated without serious conflict. Wagram was attacked troops took the village; but a Saxon and a French column in the dark took other for enemies, and the operation carried.
Already we were preparing for the of Wagram. It appears that the dis- tions of the French and Austrian gen- were opposed to each other.
The emperor employed the whole of to draw together his force into the centre where he was personally within cannon of Wagram. For this purpose the duke Rivoli marched to the left of Adder- and left a single division at Aspern, had orders in case of necessity to return the island of Lobau. The duke of Au- erstadt had orders to advance beyond the lage of Grosshol, in order to approach centre. The Austrian general in the mean- time weakened his centre in order to re- py and strengthen his wings, to which gave additional extent.
On the 6th at day break the duke of Ponte Corvo occupied the left wing, and his second line was the duke of Rivoli. The vice king closed in the centre, and the corps of Count Oudinot, that of the duke of Ragusa, the corps of the imperial guard, and the division of cuirassiers form- ed 7 or 8 lines. The duke of Auer- stadt marched from the right wing to the centre. The enemy on the other hand ced the corps of Bellegarde at Rada- Marsch; the corps Collowrath, Rosenberg stein and Muller united with the right in the position of Wagram, where the of Hohenzollern was, and at the end of left wing at Neustedel, where the duke of Rosenberg and Auerberg debouched by a curved movement at the early dawn fell upon each other and gave the battle.
The Emperor equally commenced the period, ordered the duke of Auerstadt reinforced by the division of Grouchy the due of Padua, and the corps of berg to be taken in flank by a battery pieces of the division of gen. count ty. In less than three quarters of an the fine corps of Auerstadt had ed the corps of Rosenberg and pur- beyond Neustedel, and did it great

Meanwhile the cannonade became general through the whole line, and the disposition of the enemy disclosed itself every moment. His whole left wing was lined with artillery. It might be said that the Austrian general prepared not to obtain a victory, but that he had in view only the means of taking advantage of it. This disposition seemed so unskillful, that a defeat was anticipated; and the emperor waited some time before he ordered the small disposition which was necessary to frustrate that of the enemy and to render it a misfortune to him.
He ordered the duke of Rivoli to attack a village which the enemy occupied, and by which the centre of the army was a little galled. He ordered the duke of Auerstadt to take the position of Neustadel and thence to advance to Wagram, and ordered the duke of Ragusa and general Macdonald to form in columns to seize upon Wagram the moment the duke of Auerstadt debouched.
After these occurrences we were informed that the enemy made a desperate assault upon the village which the duke of Rivoli had taken; our left wing was surrounded at 3000 toises; a violent cannonade was already heard at Gross Aspern, and the whole interval between Gross Aspern and Wagram was occupied by an immense line of artillery. No doubt was left about it.
The emperor in this situation ordered general Macdonald to form the divisions of Broussier and Lamarque into columns for the attack. He ordered them to be supported by the divisions of gen. Nansouty, the horse-guards and forty detachments of different corps. Gen. Count Lauriston marched at the head of this battery of 100 pieces of artillery against the enemy, approached him without firing till he came within half cannon shot and then commenced an astonishing fire, whereby slaughter and death were carried into the enemy's ranks. The gen. of division, Reille, supported with the brigade of fusiliers and tirailleurs the guard of gen. Macdonald. The guard altered its front to render the attack infallible. In a moment the centre of the enemy lost a league of ground. His astonished wing marked the danger of the situation in which it was and in great haste moved back. Now the duke of Rivoli attacked him during the flight of the right wing. Neustadel was taken from his left wing, by the duke of Auerstadt, who ascended the hill and marched against Wagram, attacked and surrounded it. The divisions of Broussier and Gabin covered themselves with glory.
It was now ten o'clock in the morning and intelligent men saw that the day was decided, and that victory was on our side. At noon, count Oudinot marched against Wagram, to support the attack of the duke of Auerstadt. He succeeded, and he got possession of this important station. From 10 o'clock the enemy thought of nothing but his retreat. Since noon, this was plainly going on and in disorder, and long before night came on the enemy was out of sight. Our left wing stood at Jetelssee and at Ebersdorff, our centre near Ebersdorff, and the cavalry of our right wing was extended, their posts at Schoenkirchen. On the 7th at day break the army was in motion, and marched against Korneuberg and Wolkersdorff, and took post at Nicholsburg. The enemy cut off from Hungary and Mähren found itself on the side of Bohemia driven into a straight.
Such is the representation of the battle of Wagram, the distinguished and ever glorious battle, where from 3 to 400,000 men with from 12 to 1500 cannon, fought for a great interest, on a field which by the enemy was studied and fortified for several months. Ten standards, 40 cannon, 20,000 prisoners, among whom are from 3 to 400 officers, and among whom are a considerable number of generals, colonels & majors, are the trophies of this victory. The fields of battle are covered with dead bodies, among whom were found the bodies of several generals, and among the rest that of Mr. NORMANN, a Frenchman and a traitor to his country, who prostituted his talents against it. All the wounded of the enemy have fallen into our hands. Those whom he was able to carry off at the beginning of the battle, were found in the environs of the villages. We may compute that the result of this battle cost the Austrian army in all about 60,000 men, our loss is estimated at 1500 dead and 3 or 4000 wounded.
At the moment when the duke of Istria was ordering the attack of the cavalry, his horse was killed by a cannon ball. The shot struck the saddle and occasioned him a slight contusion of the thigh. The general of division Lasalle was killed by a musket ball. He was an officer of great merit and one of the best generals of light horse. The Bavarian general Von Wrede and the Generals Peras, Grenier, Vignelle, Sahuc, and Defrance were wounded. Colonel prince Aldobrandini was struck on the arm by a musket ball. The majors of Chasseurs of the guard, Dansmel and Corbineau and col. St. Croix, were also wounded. The adjutant commandant Dufurat
was killed. The Col. of the 9th regiment of infantry of the line remained on the field of battle. A singular circumstance in this great battle is that the columns which lay nearest to Vienna, were not 200 toises distant from it. The numerous population covered the towers, roofs and heights to witness this great spectacle.
The emperor of Austria left Wolkersdorff on the 6th at 5 in the morning, and ascended a Belvedere, whence he saw the field of battle and remained till noon when he scampered away at full speed.
The French head quarters arrived on the 7th in the morning at Wolkersdorff. [In the beginning of the bulletin remarks are made on the positions of the armies. The Austrians were in all stated at 200,000 men, and their artillery at from 8 to 900 field pieces. Note of the German editor.]

TO PARENTS.
The annexed cases of cures performed by HAMILTON'S CELEBRATED WORM DESTROYING LOZENGES.
(Selected from a very numerous list.)
ARE presented as indubitable proof of the excellence and safety of this valuable specific, for destroying worms in the human stomach and intestines.
From Mr. Benjamin Williams, No. 30, Baltimore street, two doors above south Gay-street.
I have a son six years of age, who for four years past, has been generally in a very unhealthy state, particularly in summer; frequently afflicted with alarming convulsion fits, the whole of his little frame wasted fast, his breath foetid, and almost constant itching at the nose was excited, with other alarming symptoms. During the course of the above period, the advice and attendance of three of the most eminent physicians in Baltimore were successively procured. Each of these gentlemen, in his turn, declared worms to be the cause of the child's disorder, and exhausted his skill in attempting to expel them. Pink root, steel filings, with a variety of other medicines, were administered without the least success. It was once pronounced impossible for the child to live many hours.
I had heard of your Worm Destroying Lozenges, but with many others did not think highly of so cheap a medicine, until a gentleman of my acquaintance (Mr. Wm. S. Moore, auctioneer) in whose family they had been used with good effect, advised me to make trial of them; I accordingly gave my son a dose agreeable to directions, which soon expelled eight large worms, some of them about eight inches in length; a second dose brought away four more of similar size; a third dose being administered, no worms appeared. The child recovered and now enjoys a good state of health.
BENJAMIN WILLIAMS.
AFFIDAVIT.
Michael Duffy, residing at No. 47, Walker street, Fell's Point, in the city of Baltimore voluntarily maketh oath that the following statement is just and true:
In the beginning of May last, my three children, a boy of seven, and two girls the one five, and the other three years of age were taken very ill, nearly at the same time, of a common fever, as I then supposed; but was soon convinced the disorder was caused by worms. They were frequently troubled with convulsion fits, and violent startings in their sleep, and with almost continual vomiting and purging, particularly the youngest. I made immediate application to a physician of the first reputation, and his medicines were administered with a confidence of success, which only increased our disappointment. The children grew daily worse, and I was absolutely without hopes of their recovery. The youngest soon appeared almost devoid of animation, and scarcely an inhabitant of this world. In this distressing moment I was told that Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges had performed many cures in cases equally desperate. I immediately purchased a box, and gave each of them a dose, which in a few hours produced the most desirable effects. The eldest voided a great number of very large worms, and the second thousands of small ones, many of them not a quarter of an inch—in the youngest they seemed to be consumed, and had the appearance of skin and slimy matter. I repeated the dose agreeable to the paper of directions, and they all speedily recovered a good state of health, which they still enjoy, though 5 months have nearly elapsed, since they were on the borders of the grave, and the death of the whole seemed to be inevitable.

TO H. LEE.
Some time last spring I was afflicted with loss of appetite, giddiness in the head, fever, and great debility, so that I could scarcely walk. In this distressing situation I took many things, but without benefit. An acquaintance in the country sent to me to procure a box of Hamilton's Lozenges. Curiosity prompted me to read the directions, where I found my complaint exactly described by the doctor. I immediately sent for another box of the Lozenges, and took one dose, which brought away a large quantity of worms, and I felt greatly relieved. Encouraged by this, I took another dose, which was attended with the happiest effects, as it relieved me entirely, and am now in a better state of health than for a considerable time past. I have since given them to my children, and can speak from experience, that they are a most valuable medicine, and am happy to add my testimony to numberless others of their efficacy.
SARAH JOHNSON,
No. 140, north Second Street.
Among the symptoms attending Worms are, a greasy breath, especially in the morning—bad and corrupted gums—itching in the nose and about the seat—convulsions,
epileptic fits, and sometimes privation of speech—irregular appetite, sometimes loathing food and sometimes voracious—purging, with slimy and foetid stools—vomiting—large and hard belly—pains and sickness at the stomach—pains in the head and thighs, with lowness of spirits—slow fever, with small and irregular pulse—a dry cough—excessive thirst—sometimes pale and unhealthy countenance, and sometimes the face bloated and flushed.
Persons afflicted with any of the above symptoms, should have immediate recourse to Hamilton's Worm Destroying Lozenges , which have been constantly attended with success in all complaints similar to those above described.
Prevention better than Cure.
In cases of head ache, foul stomach, and for removing superfluous bile, perhaps no remedy has been discovered superior to LEE'S HAHN'S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS , Which for 10 years past have been attended with the greatest success. The testimony of many respectable persons in our southern sea ports has been adduced who have reason to believe that a timely use of this salutary remedy during the prevalence of malignant fevers, has preserved their health after experiencing alarming symptoms of fever.
Certificate of Wm. Devenny.
During the last nine years I have been in the habit of using Hahn's Antibilious Pills, prepared by the late Mr. Lee, whenever colds, head ache, or costiveness have rendered medicine necessary; in these cases a single dose has uniformly removed my head ache, and has generally been found sufficient to remove every symptom of a cold, if taken on its first appearance. Induced by the benefit I have received, I have for years past recommended them to many of my friends, and I have the pleasure to inform you, they have invariably succeeded in removing the above complaints.
Yours, WM. DEVENNY,
ITCH CURED.
Lee's Sovereign Ointment for the Itch, a certain cure by once using; Hamilton's Lozenges; Hamilton's Elixir, for Coughs; the celebrated Antibilious Pills; Hamilton's Essence of Mustard, for the Rheumatism; Tooth-Ache Drops; Hamilton's Grand Respirative for Debility.
