mostly au purees, and as a return to inauspicious

restraioed the enemy from pressing upon no ono slowly, nay,
even perhaps from Imploring the Nonebridgs again below

commenced at the ease instant a movement from Ganeraeland
towards the beech wood, and drove the enemy towards
The battle had sow continued from day-break till near
11 o'clock, whoa the enemy, now no longer pressed an his
left wing, concentrated additional forces against the Idstedt
position. To oppose this the grin cot part of the reserve
artillery was brought up, sad the most fisroalTdi spatted
sonfilet of the day now took place with art( . We
were in hopes of being able to maintain this pee r lion, as
the greater part of the let brigade still rernaked in reserve.
But when the Terri arrived that the enemy were forcing
their way at Treys scroes the Trees' and had already coca-
pied Stuby, although he (the enemy) had been kept in
cheek by the teems cavalry and some artillery, it appeared i
hichly undesirable to allow matters to proceed to far, and
about 1 o'clock the resolution was come to to give up the
contest and commence a retreat.

There seemed every peobability from the great numerical
strength of the enemy that their position In our rear would
moon be very considerably strengthased. A portion of the
let brigade, consisting of the 3d and 4th battalions was there-
fore ordered to prev.nt the enemy gaining ground in our
rear, and constituently rendering our retreat lees difficult.
Our retreat commenced between 1 and 2 in the afternoon,
with no other loss in material than three demounted guns.
At Falkenburg the reserve artillery took up such a patties,
a. elvered the advaneed guard, and the 4th brigade, and the
retreat was so supported by a partial edvanee of the 3d bri-
gade hem Schmid, along the road, under the special com-
mand of Colonel Von der Tana Chief of the Oeutral
Staff, that we were no lamer premed upon by the enemy.
Tte order was now issued for the 24 and 3d brigades
to retreat to Misunde, the 4th and advance guard to
Schleswig, and the let brigade and the cavalry from Shuby
to Bendaburg. On arrival at the C ode of Gottcop the
4th brigade and the advance guard (now brooms the rear)
guard), took up the strong pcsitim at Fahrderf so as to
maintain s sale communication with the 2nd and 3rd Wind,

at Missunde, and also by this position to delay the enemy's
Pittance by the direct road to Rendsburg ; and laxly, to
favour the retreat of the let brigade, the reserve cavalry,
end the heavy baggage, and to enat•le them to avoid the
ground which the enemy's cavalry might render dangerous.
All these objeeta were fortunately attained. TM whole
of the bsggaae arrived safest Rendaburg. The room air
valry and the lit brigade were but little disturbed during
their retreat, and the four brigades forming the main body
of the army had effected a junction on the night of the battle.
But u it was necessary, above all, to reach the Hem po-
.ition of Readeborg as soon u possible, the arm commenced
its march to Cluveneteck and Konigsforde. The large park
of artillery retreated by war tof Beiernforde to Gottorp, snd
theme across the Ryder. The army thus found itself on the
morning of the 26th in safe communication with Reads-
burg.

BERLIN, JuLT 31.

The Austrian government will convene the Frank-
fort so-called plenum, even though ell the states of the
union stop away, and it wilt bring the Schleswig-Hol-
stein question to a decision before this Assembly,
without reference to the treaty of peace concluded by
Prussia. It will be declared whether the fight of the
Holsteiners is to be considered as war or rebellion. In
the one case the confederation would support Holstein,
is the other it would oppose. In either ease Austria
will have exercised an inauenos in the North Sea, and
it is inclined rather to interfere as against Holstein,
because it would then act on the presumption that
England will then take no precautions against itkin-
. &sass.

In Berns it seems datatialned to restrain AaVxian
as much ma rank..
Asseipr sustains the official resolution
cumnowiested to the Ceder of Princes on the 27th
alt., by whisk the two royal plenipotentiaries at
Franidart are recalled, u well as Counctllor Mathis.—
General Necker to remain at Frankfort only in his
rapacity of member of the central commission of the
Bond. The members of the college farther call on
their geveenmeats forming the union to act in oon-
joetina with Pruseis, and null all their plenipo-
tentiaries,.
The great question at Berlin seems now to be whe-
ther or not the DAN S will pus the Bider, and
then will arise the question which our correspondent
treats of, ea to whither Holstein is at war or in re-
bellion.
