We have not yet received circumstantial accounts
of the battle at Austerlitz ; but, according to'all the
private letters, it was extremely bloody, and only
d-cided by the arrival of Marshal Bernadotte. The
Russian army has approached the frontiers of Hun-
gary. We 'soca soon to receive more particular
accounts.—(nieslau Gazette.)

DEC. 12.
After the battle of Austerlitz, the Austro-Rus-
Sian army proceeded towards the frontiers of Hun-
gary ; a^d, nn the sth, an armistice was concluded
between the respeElive armies. We have re.ison to
hope, that it will be followed by a peace.

The Emperor of Austria is, with ■ part of his
army, at Holitsch ; and His Majesty the Emperor
of Russia is upon his road for Teschen, from
*hence he will return to Saint Petersburg.
If we may believe accounts which we have re-
ceived from the frontiers of Moravia, the French
summoned the city of Olmutz to surrender on the
4th. The head-quarters of the French army are at
Wischau, and the azmy itself bad advanced as far
as Pratznitz, within four leagues of Olmutz.

Our paper of the 16th contains the followin
" The advance of the fresh Ru,sian troops is counter-
manded till farther orders. Ihe want of provisions,
especially of forage, was very great in the Austrian
camp, during the last days."

And in our Paper of this day, we read as follows:
Yesterday, the second column of the Russian
army, under the command of his Excellency, the
General in Chief, Baron ♦on Bennigsen, marched
through our city. It was composed of a regiment
of grenadiers, one of musketeers, and sue of cui-
rassiers.

s, The following Generals of the Russ:an army,
among oth..rs, are missing since the battle of the
2d. Gene; al Muller, of the Jager, General Muller,
of the Hulans, and General von Sackett. They
were all wounded.

" His Imperial Highness the Grand Duke Con-
stantine dined here, on his way to Berlin, with the
Minister of State, the Count von Hoym."
MORAVIA. DCC. 5.

Certain accounts have been received, that after
the battle a the 2d, an Armistice was concluded,
on the 4th, between the Belligerent Powers. A
few days before, the Archduke Ferdinand, with
his army, which now is ::0,000 strong, arrived in
and near Iglaw, after having gained a considerable
advantage over the Bavarian corps of General

Wrede, in that vicinity.
In contradiction of the report of the expected
neutrality of Hungary. it is only necessary to say,
that 40,000 men of the insurrection were ready to
take the field on the Sth of Hstcentber.—(Ber'.‘

After the united armies had advanced, on the
le December, to Austerlitz, the enemy took .s po-
sition near Sokolnitz and Menitz, along the l..ke,
and preparations were made to attack him.
On the 2d, early in the morning, when all the c -
lumns had not yet marched out, the urtion
very warm between the advarced guards, and the
whole line was soon afterwards engaged. The
enemy at first made a feint, as if intending to force
the lef, w:ng ; but su2denly he made a vigorous at-
tack on the centre, which gave way. But as his re.
peatesl attacks on the left wing had not nicceeded,
his right wing was pressed and threatened to be
taken in flank, he coo!'" no', hettfore, make much
progreu in advance. and only eitrem,ly slowly, and
it was not till late i■ the eve ing that the left wing
was obl:ged to give way to superior force, and the
army took its position before itastariira, of whirl it
was still in possession.

The loss cannot yet be ascertained ; hut, con-
sider:ng the heavy fire maintained, the repeated at-
tacks and charges of cavalry, it rr.ust have been
prodigiously great on both sides.

The Combined Army, which was 5.3.00 strong,
has to-day taken a position near Caeitsch ;in or-
der to march by Golding, to facilitate procuring
the means of subsistence, and obtaining reinforce
menu of every kind.

The corps of General Von Essen, 12,000 strong.
joined the Austrian and Russian army after the
battle, in which tl-ey had fought with the most de-
termined bravery.
