sition the sth brigade occupied ai •that time is still
retained by the army. The !thuds; as well as the

the position of the Enetny's right wing, dod Made
several Prisoners on that occasion. 1 haverheen ses
veral days at Uleaborg, to organise the tegithetits iu
that quarter for the Summer campaign, add to try
. whether it would not be possible to obtain 12 gun-
boats, which I hope will soon be fitted OW; and serve
to support the movethents of the.arMy.
The Enethies' main body still Continues iu Old
Carleby, and its environs, where they' have cop-
Strueled considerable inuenchmenta. I also tnider;
stand that 70D men have •beeit detached by the
Enemy against Cuevio, where 1 have reinforced

able to maintain histiosition.

However great that loss may be, I Ikkliniq' beg
.leave to assure your Majesty; that so tar from its des
pressing the courage and zeal Of the Finnish army,
it will, on the contrary, inspirit your Majesty'S
troops under my command to redouble their exer4
Lions in the firm and cheerful performance Of
the duty which they owe to their King and Country.

then to be left, that we should ever be rescued from
the Enemy's yck!, and yet it has pleased Pro-,

sigiial success which has brought about our libera-

tasued by our gallant countrymen ; a severe con-
flict took place in oar streets, the result of s+hich
was, that the Russians were completely routed, and
compelled to retreat in the utmost confusion. They
lost all their magazines, a.considerable number were
killed and wounded, and,about 300 taken prisoneis'.
