LEIPSIC, SEPT:al.—Our Gazette of to-day con-
tains the foliowhig Report respecting the httttles
of the 25tb tod 27th August, near D...esden
The grand Austrian army, combined with a
Ittissian and Prussian corps, on the 17th, put itsclf
in march from 13ohenna, to net offensively itt
Saxony. On the 20th, a considerable corps ad-
ranced before Toeplitz, and directed its ,inv.rch
upon the position which Alarshal St, Cyr ()cell-
pied with a part of his, corps d'artae, near the
defile of !Idlendorf. The enemy there sheaved
great superiority of forces. A division, belong-
ing to Marshal St. Cyr, retired in the night be-
tween the 224. and 23d, under the Was of Dres-
den, after havi;,g disputed the ground,. foot by
toot, with the enemy. During this tittle, strong
enemy's columns approached that capital, by (lit.- '
fercnt roads. Oa, the 2311, .;oine corps took a po-
sitiop upon the heights of Lockwitz, Other en.

To spread terror and disorder, the enemy for

An timeline-which he occupied, as well as the
ast-extent of the great garden, were filled with
'„'his 'dead, The eoenly's army which surrounded
Dresdenis.estimated at 150,00 men.
On the 27th, at four,A.M. the French troops
were all at theiv posts. The Dukes of Hellunoand
Ilagusa"s. eorN, as we;: Gen. Latour Manberg's
corps or_cavalry, which had passed the bridge in
the greatest order, took the positions which bad
been assigned- them round the town. They were
obliged to deploy upon a ground of little extent,
within sight of an immense army. , Nevertheless
the French commenced the attack at seven o'clock,
by'a brisk cannonade. At nine all the troops
were advancing already ;
had they the advantage
every where ; ali4,:itly did, the battle extend along
the whole line. At three in the afternoon the
enemy's right and left wings were overthrown and
pot in flk,order, but they had not yet been able to
Attack the centre, which occupied the advan-
togeoes position of Roccknitz. The defeat of the
wo wings mast occasion its fall. The allied army
has suffered enormously. The greater part of the
kit wing has been annihilated, placed in un in-
comprehensilde manner between the Elbe and the
valley of flatten, it could not communicate with
the centre, nor be supported by unpardon-
able a fault must have cost it dear, and the Gene-.
rats to whom it may be attributed prepared , a
great misfortune for that army which tVil';.loll,fided
to them.
" At five o'clock' we saw the Emperor return
to Dresden ; he was accompanied by several Au-
striaa:r Genertils, by a great number of officers of'
the Staff prisoners, by a considerable number of
cannon snit caissons taken, which were 'accom-
panied by the artillerymen, and drawn by their
OWII horses ; he was followed by columns of pri-
soaers which succeeded 'each other, and by the
colours taken, which were carried in triumph by
sub-officers of the Guards. The centre of the
Allies Was still in its first position, one would
have thought that the different corps of the right
and left wings would have joined the centre, and
that the tollowing day the battle would have been
renewed ; but the Freyherg road was cut off by
the right wing of the French army, and General
Vandanitne was advancing during the battle with
7(1 battalion's, a cavalry and artillery proportion-
ed, by Firms and Noenigstein, ar,tl had occupied
the reterswalde road. At 10 in the evening the
enemy, was informed of these movements. In
despair at the disorder that appeared in his lines,
uncertain respecting his communications, be thcn
wished to begin his retreat. It may easily be
comprehended, that after what passed during the
day, that retreat became a rout ; the result affords
proofs of it. i)uring the 28th columns of prison-
ers made in the mountsins were' 8141) to 111TiVe
every moment. The womided, which had been
Isbandotivd in the villages, arrived with those co*
morns, as well as the flags of entire regiments,
which retiring without order, and seized with ter-
ror, laid down their. arms on the appearance of
a French detachment. Every mornefit of thiS
remarkable day has increaed the triumphS
of the preceding one. Thus this grand army,
which in stmie hours expected to be masters of
Dresden, was in the same space of time dissipated
:tad almost dissolved. What a lesson in it single
day! Detachments of the train and the re-
Illiall9 of columns continue to he taken in the
mountains. The unhappy prisoners are without
eloathing; they sink under want and .firtigue.—
The Austrian Army left its frontiers before its Or-
ganization was finished, and before its equipment
and closathing were complete.
" A delay of six months, and the employing in
equipping it some millions which Austria had not
at her disposal, were requisite for snaking it act,
and opening With some SAICCeSS a campaign such,
as, that she had comineoced. The small number
of, old soldiers, who arc in the'army is considered
us astonishing. Its greater part consists of
• yoting men of 18 years and under.'' In a single
clay it has lost a third part ot' the need of wltich it
,was• composed. It is now endeavouring to regain•
130heinia by ergs:, roads, where it necessarily must
lose pait of its materiel.. There are a few ex-
amples of a misfortune of this kind having fallen
'upon a nett/ army, animated as it appears by the
enthusiasm of patriotism, and which had all the
advantage of acting offensively or defensively on
its side. The events round Dresden can only be
compared to those of .I.Jhu. 'A storm •of rain

LONDON,
B.ITIIRD.IIr, SEPTEMBER lA, 1613.

Reports of the most vivifying descriptiom have
this morning reached our Office from variips parts;
•
reports Mach, if they receive confirmation, are of
a nature well calculated to gratify the warnmit
wishes of our hearts, and fulfil the sanguine ex-
pectations we entertain of a glorious and blesaed
termination to the contest in which we are

gaged. The intelligence contained in the follow-

ing letter from our Correspondent at Deal is
too congenial with our hopes to permit to
throw doubts upon the authority whence it is
derived more than is consistent with ,that gene-
ral caution necessary to he applied in appreciat-
ing all communications of the kind. So far as the

writer of our letter is concerned, we will pledge

ourselves that the facts be states are unquestion-

able—what reliance !nay be placed on the Dutch
boatmen, from whom they emanate, and on Whose
Veracity they rest, our readers will determine. In

all our views of the state of affairs near Dresden,

we have expressed opinions which prove that such
a victory as is here described comes fully within
the scope of our anticipation as a most probable
