ltav'e paid dearly for it. At halt= iast eleVett we
heattl a.theadfUl firing, and all fled intd the 'cel-
lars. This 'continued till two o'clock : the Prus-
sians stunned the tOWn at fivtplaces; and paskni -
into the St. Jasisi \relo; and Salida, gates, • and (a
driVing through otti• Stl•eets pursued the French ; '
the Prussians were not to be restrained, they fired
on the houses that were shut up; thinkint; that '
the Frenvit had taken refuge in them, As soon
as we opened our shutters; ar+eßelaimed, wel-
t:6l'le Friends ! they came into our houses; and
gave us their hands. . A noinher of men fell on .
both sides, and • neaqy. all the Fredch arc iti2(l.e. .

that it had not suriendered in two hours, and it
was beside's to have been given up to plunder for•
three hours when they entered. it ; but as the
town was opened to them on the first •he'avy can-
nonade, this wris laid aside. It-was mot till yes-
terday that the cry of Orange Boven commenced,
when that flag was hoisted over the gates,. &c."
