sell in leargin,,,, at the head of his brigade. Generals Woronzow,
Cut niched, Betickennoilf, and iierselifehlt, having been placed
Tnneb in a:ivanee upon the tight wing of the army, were hot Cll-
abltd to as •ist in the engagement ;''out they have material y contrr
buted to our success by timu positions which they occupit d.
Marshal the Count de Stedinek, and General the Baron de Wint-
singerode, the Generals, Officers, and men under their command,
regretted that the precipitate retieat rf the enemy at then apyroach,
did not leave them the opportunity of rendering their destruction
complete, Immy a simultaneous attack. The wind, and the great
clouds of dust, for a lung time prevented time Russian and Swedish
armies from disti,Anishing each other, notwithstauding that they
tuarehed in concert, and upon the same line.
The niece Royal has been constantly attended by his Staff.
General the Baron do Alderereutz did not leave him until he had
received directions to proceed to the right of the Priesian army

friendship.
He is also much satisfied with the zeal of Generals the Baron de

oth r, perNuaded that the devotion of these brave men will prove
hatisfactory to the Allied Powers.
