We haze the most sati-factory intelligence ; the allied army inees-
,:mtly pursues the enemy. Their loss already exceeds 18,000 men,
r.ith 3:1 pieces of artillery. All his Generals, with the exception of
two, are killed, w“tintred, or prisoners. .1111 t MON r has had an arm
tiiiputated, r:nd received another woundan his body. The victory has
Lien one of the most c .mplete that can possibly be imagined Yes-

REPORTED SANGUINARY BATI*I.E IN RU4SIA. •
A report was brought to Ele!igoland by vessels from the
opposite coast, that a general engagement had been fought
beyond ihe Dwitta towards the close of the last month, in
which the Russians had lost OV,OOo men and the French
30,0004 This rumour was transmitted to this country

letter to Harwich, which reached town last Thursday. It
has since received no confirmation. It is not unlikely that
a deeisile action mid• have taken place at Witespk, but that
the Fri•► ch have lad the advantage cannot be supposed, from
the silence of their batteries in the Channel.
