MY LORD—In my last dispatches by the nu ssenger Fisfer, I had
the honour to 'elate the removal of a Russian and Pi iu.slais army
from Silesia to Bohemia, to form a juneiion with the An Irian
forces at the close or the armistice, and the subsequent march of the
combined forces of the three powers, to a position on the It f batik
of the Elbe close to Dresden ; als that, for reasons therein stated,
the allied army made a flank march to the right, repa-;«1 the Bo-
hemian frontier, and assembled near this place, where the ti;-st corps
of the French army undo. General Vandamme, mistaken ihe
object of the Allies, and Navin:: advanced into the Bohemia:, teu

march, was cut otr. That a

formed the principal part,
a:.d beating the whole wci;;ltt of General Vantlainme's corps, until
on the f 01101.4 lug day, by an able disposition, the whole of this
French force was routed, cut oft, and dispersed in the woods ; all
its Go nerals, its cannon, and bcveral of its cagies and colours king
taken.

In the meanwhile, the Prince. Royal of Sweden having
ncenvred the attach directed upon Berlin, and having gained a de-
cided victory on the tt:th ult. with his left wing. and tollowed up
his successes by advancing both his wings and his centre, as far as
circumstances would vomit, has every where defeated thy cnenty
and taken his caution. And General Wudier, with the Russian Ge-
nerals Langerun and Saclicu, Intim g destrn:fed the vvitelc corps of

General Benigsen, with the first army of reserve, exceeding
eighteen thousand men, has crassed the thier' and is advancing to
the Bober, his advanced guard being already beyond the K ;tal;:ch.
In the meanwhile, the supplies which were required alter the
very great exertions made by the army, in twice pas-ing the nlonn-
tains during such mu-casonati!e weather, having arrived, the forces
which have been at head•gnat ters arc again in motion.
The RiNsians and Prussiaes, upder Gen. Barclay de Tolly, anti

Copy of a Dispatch from Filward
_Thornton, F_.•.q. to Viscount Castle-

,
nag's, dated Juterhoch, :-.eptember 10, 181 1.
RTY Loitn—l have the bottom to inform your Lordship, that the
Combined Army in Bohemia has, on the evening of the 4th of Sep-,
tember, and on the sth made a movement iu ad' al.ce ; and that it
appears from the accounts received here to he tit intent:on of Hie.
Allied Sovereigns in that quarter to recommence offensive opera-
tions.

Thus movement has, it shouid seem, already bad the Oleo of re.
calling Butmaparte from the t,ttack which he meditated against the
army of (ivil. Blucher, oho had fallen back before the superior.
forces of the Cornier, and has compelled him to return tov,vargli the
Elbe. Cm Blucher, iii consequence, had resumed id• for_
tiler movements, iod has already eng4ed in harassing the rear of the
4 twiny in their retreat.
It should set in. by the acc,:unts from the out posts, and from the
flyina parties of Ms aricy, that the French are withdraw ing their
heavy artillery :seross the Ellie towards Leipzig and Erf.:rt, nd
which seems to indicate the intention of quittim: entitely the right
bank of that river.
Thp light cavalry of this army has penetrated on the left as fir as
on the Elbe, in the ut iOihottrhootd of which, a body of
two hundred Cossacks mule about 40 prisoner,.
The head-quarters of the l'inxe Royal still remains here; but it
',ems probable that they will be removed to-morrow nearer to the.
Elbe, and with a view to the pa,sage of that river.
I have the honour w be, &c. El). THORNTON.

10,000 prisoners, 80 cannon, and up-
,aggons, three pair of colours, and one
standard were taken.
After that Gen. IVobeser had put to flight the enemy's army at
lifahme, it continued its retreat on Torten. Our li;rht troops did
not desist from following hint, and taking prisoners, ammunition
waggons and baggage. The enemy kis broken down the bridges
over the Elstcr, in the vicinity of Annaberg anti Hertzberg. The
cavalry indeed may cross the river, but the bridges must be re-
paired before the artillery can be got over. Eight bundled pri-
soners mere taken dose to the ate du pont at Torgau, amid some
battalions which found it impossible to reach Torgau, turned to-
wards Muhlberg, and took their route to..vards esdt n.
The Marshal Prince of Eckmuld had, in the night between the 2d
and Sd September, left Schwerin with the whole of his army. Con-
sidering the strung position in which he was, this motion appears to
be a consequence of the progress made by the Allied Army on the
side of Saxony. The enemy had time enough to put every thing in
readiness for his retreat. so that we could not come op w ith his ar-
tillery and baggage. He had besides a great start of NValmoden's
and Vegesack's corps, the first of which was at Crivitz, and the lat-
ter near the Wdreo. The corps &armee, under the Prince of Eck-
snub!, marched in two columns on the road from Gadebusch -and
Klima, aini halted about half a German mile from Ratzeburg. Ge-
neral Loison's division retinat«l in the same direction, from Wismar,
through Grevesmullen to Schonberg. At this place the Danish
troops separated from the French. The lager matched to Ratzc-
but g, and the first to Lubeck, where they left a garrison, and atter
wards encamped farther off, at Oldeslolie. The whole French army
has retired across the Steikuitz,. on the banks of which entrench-

such, of whom upwards of 604) have been taken prisoners.
The Cossacks of the corps ocLutzow and Von Reiche, with the
Hanseatic cavalry, have made several attacks on the enemy's rear-
guard.
On General Vegesack's side the enemy was pursued under the
uns of Lubeck.
Major Audit)), who commanded the amseatic cavalry with great
ability, was there killed by a cannon ball. The Micklenburgh
gagers attacked a Danish squadron in the vicinity of Dess.an, and
caused a considerable loss.
General Vegesack has again taken his position at Grevesmullen.
General Count Walmoden had again returind to Schwerin, but
marched from thence to Domitz, where be caused a bridge to be

Wittenburg is blockaded by Gen. Czernischeff. A number of
troops are ohseiving Magdebourg on the right bunk of the Elbe.
The remains of Gem Girard's cusps have escaped into that cortres.,
