with a division of cavalry and four ricees of cannon, in order to

aldjor Baron D'Essen. Aide-dc-Camp to the Crown Prime, and
the Russian Capt. Krasnakutzki, have proceeded with a regiment ne
Cossacks to Delitsch. Col. Steel has pursued the enemy with a
Bread deal of vigour. He distinguished himself by his bravery and
skill in the affair before Dessau, on the '26th of September.
The expedition of General Czernitscheti has been attended with
the most brilliant success. Never were boldness, talents, and valour,
more eminently displayed than on this occasion. The General after
thret ,;tirions combats, entered Cassel on the :30th of Sept. by capi-
tulano.- He marched on the 2.lth to Eisleben, the 25th to Rosie,
and avoiding a Westphalian corps under the orders of Gen .Basti-
pos!cd at I Icilligenstadt, he made a lateral moverneat, passed
thraogli Smidersbanscn, and arrived on the 2tith in the evening at
Muhatausen. Tits nee lie marched in one day to Cassel. The King
reeeised notice of his arrival only two hours before. Investing the
city on every side, he ortlere'd the Cossacks and hussars of him to
attack the enemy's battalion', stationed at Bettenhausen, wish six
pieces of cannon. By a brilliant charge, the guns were t;ikett, the
enemy dispersed, and more than 100 ttrisouers made. ('ol. Bedriaga
way killed on this occasion. This officer. who possessed miconmion
valour, s regretted by die Russian army. The fitgutives were
lawstted into the city ; but as the Ftrects were harricadoed, the
R ussians at length tell back. The King collected two battalioes of
Infarcts and a thousand horse, and fled by the road leading to Frankfort.
Col. Benkendorti charged tour squadrons of light horse, forming part
of the escort ; not one of whom escaped ; he took 250 men and 10
officers. General Czernitschrtf was then apprised that General
Bastineller was advancing against Cassel. He marched during the
night oi'the lath upon Melzulgen, in order to meet him with Iris
entire force. The hostile corps dispersed ; no more than twenty
cuirassiers and two guns were taken. The troops that followed the
King dispersed in like manner ; more than :WO of them joined Gen.
Czernitschefi, and marched with him on the 30th agamat Cassel.
He made use of theartillery captured from the enemy, and cannonaded
the town. The Leipsic gate, with the cannon planted there, was
carried by Col. Benkendotti. At that moment Gem Czernitschett
offered terms of capitulation 'to the Gen. of Division Alin. He
bbtained a tree passage for the French and Westphalian troops,
with their arms and military baggage. These troops were to 1w
escorted. by Cossacks. two miles from Cassel. The city wits cc-
eupied on the evening of the 30th, by the Russians. The joy tir the
inhabitants was beyond all description. The greater part of the
Westphalian troops are ranging themselves ender the banners of the
Allies ; more than 1,500 were already enrolled at the departure of
the Courier; and the concussion given to the kingdom of Westphalia
is or the most violent description.
It is at this moment that the North of Germany ought to justify -
tiw hopes vt Welt Europe entertains of its patriotism, and of the
courage of its inhabitants.
The advanced guards of the combined army of the North of
Germany, and of the army ofSileitia, at only half a league distant
from one another.
The greed army of Bohemia has debouched into Saxony. The

was completely beaten, and lost more than 1000 prisoners, five
guns, and three standards, and was pursued to Zeit!. The corps of
Gen. Thielmann awl of Col. Mentrorft had joine&in the pursuit.
The Clown Prince saw defile yestet day through this city a part of
the 3d corps of the Prussian army, under the orders of Gen. Below ;
Rod today the %%hole of the 4th corps, commanded by Gen. Count
Tanenzien. His Royal Highness has beheld again, with pleasure,

Sr Cumin, Oc r. 17—To.day (Sunda.,) on returning item mass,
her Maksty the Empress Queea and Ittent gave an audience to the
litnicipal Corps of the City of Paris, who were presented her by his
Excellency the Minister for the Interior. The Perfect of the
Department of the Seine, as President of the Municipal Corps
of Paris, had the honour of presentiog to her Majesty the following
Address, which bail been voted by the Monicipal Corps :
" ManAst--What Frenchmen could remain deaf to the voice of
the Emperor, to the call of the cottony and that of honour. The
appeal which your Majesty has just has reverberated m all
hearts ; they feel the necessity of declaring those generous sentiments
which were at all times the noble inheritance of France.
" That esteem which your M,,jesty so long ago conceived for
this great nation, the love which you bear it, the hopes which
you have given t ise to, shall not be dt ceived ; the august daughter
of Maria Theresa can never invoke the courage and energy of
nations ; Frenchmen will have no rivals iu their love for their
Sovereigns : no sacrifices, no effints can be painful to them, when
honour commands them they would not know how to live without
glory, and never shall die Crown of their Emperor be despoiled of
its laurels. Such is the unanimous oath which they to-day take at
all points of the Empire ; such arc the sentiments which the good
city of Paris comes to express to you, by carrying to the feet of
your Majesty the tribute of its respect and of its devotion.
" Never did the bond which attaches and unites subjects round
their Sovereign demand to be more strengthened ; jealous powers
already divide among themselves portions of this fine Empire ; they
even convey and negociate respecting them, even before having
required any right over them. And in order to render this delirium
still more odious in the annals of history, a Prince, who owes
his
renown but to the honour of fighting in our ranks, is the first to set
this unheard of example. He collects all those whom hatred and
,- the love of intrigue had forced far from •us ; he misleads the policy
of a nation at All times our a By ; he compromises a throne to which
the good offices of his Emperoe conducted him ; he directs without
remove, and with good will, the sword against his cottony. Ile
has ceased to be a Frenchman; let us forget that he had a country
But will his image be preserved among those of our &Wild heroes?
But if some misled Frenchman remain with him, will they be able
to forget honour which reproves them,laws which condemn them,and
sacred oaths which bind them t Let us turn from a thought so painful,
and let the remembrance of this memorial ingratitude, if it is pee
be for ever effaced.
" Madam, it iN by redoubling their zeal and love it is he firing
their attention upon that august throne to which your 111,-;esty has
carried with all the virtues, the noble courage of your grandmother,
that the inhabitants of the good city of Paris will anxiously en-
deavour, as faithfUl subjects, to discharge all that they pwe to their
Prince and to their country.
" We. arc, with the most profound rcpect, Madam, your Imperial
tral Hoynl Majesty's very humble, very submissive, vet) faithful
subjects, the Members of the Municipal Corps of the city of Paris."
