Besides these, The Sun of last night, (a paper which has
frequently distinguished itself for priotity of intelligence)
gave exclusively the forowing interesting and important
particulars, exttacted from the Berlin Gazettes of the 24th,
which contained advices from Leipsig to the evening of
the 22d :
It was York's corps which turned Baonaparte in his attempt to
escape by the pass at Cosen (between Naumburg and Weissenfeis)
and defeated him with the loss of 10,000 men. The tyrant then
turned to the right and fled by Freyberg.

waggons, are in the possession of the Allies.

message to him that he could not possibly speak to him, as he had al-
ready broken his word to him, and that he could now consider him •us
no other light but as a Captive Prince.

belonging to Bennizsen's army, he had quitted Dresden, and taken
the rota to Chenmitz.
Count Mecrfcldt was taken prisoner, but set at liberty by Mona-
