The first diviit,n, commanded by General All-
CHAUV, being obliged t.) follow the course of the
Weser; and to march through Hoxter and Pyrrnont,
could not arrive before this day. The division of
GOBERT, with the King, arrived yesterday at one
o'clock before the place. The troops advanced by
forced marches, in order; with as much rapidity
as
.possible, to keep in check those of the enemy's en;,
trenched camp, and not to afford them time to occupy
Rintelen, Where they might have broken down the
bridge, spiked the guns, and burnt the draw-bridge
that place being without a garrison, which had been
sent back a few days before by the Hessian General.

Before arriving at Ertzen, his Majesty had
formed the van, consisting of the 22d French regi-
ment of the line, a detachment of cavalry of the
Guards, of the Dutch hussars of the 2d regiment,
and Iwo geld-pieces, under the command of Major-
DEMLEC. As-soon as these troops bad passed
beyond Ertzen, they encountered the Enemy near
the village of Gross-Barkei. The Dutch hussars
made a • most violent attack on the dragoon .regi-
meat of BRuswrTz, and on a detachment of hussars
of BLIICHEF who offered resistance ; but, —after
,being at close quarters a few moments, the enemy was
ihroWn into disorder, and, although the enemy's in-
fantry was posted in the rear, to support the horse,
the Dutch hussars drove them under the batteries,
and remained there in order of battle, till the King
sent them orders not to expose themselves any
longer to the fire of the 'entrenchments, but to .re-
treat iii that position which his Majesty had pointed
out to the van. .

" The'Voltigeurs of the 22d regiment supported
the Cavalry : they had 'travelled 20 German tulles
through byeways,, and apiii.ared much fatigued till the
inciment the fire commenced, when their fatigue was
nolonger apparent, and they rapidly advanced to the
wood in which the enemy's infantry endeavoured to
retreat ; attacked and pursued them to neat the town.
The cavalry of His Majesty's Guard, being formed
in a column behind the hussars, could not come to

cliyie quarters. Colonel TRAVERS then made a move-
inen't On his left flank, breaking off hi a column,
and forrning on the flank of the Enemy's cavalry, in
spite of th 4 fire of the infantry.

" The result of this engagement is, the retreat of
the Vemy to theit entrenchments, too prisoners of
the regiments of BrUswites Letton, Hagen, &c. and
ithe same number of killed and wounded.

We gfeatly %ardent the misfortune of Colonel
loovxm, Chief itlitriutOit of the Palace, whose thigh
Nw3s shot off by a catiuon-ball. Capt. LsAzz, of the
puards, is badly wounded; and of the 2d regiment
ji?iutch hussars, 13 were wounded, but not one
dangerously."
