SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT.

Tuptitz, August 31.
The enemy having mistaken the' Causes which
promtapd us to our retrograde movements, at-
tempted to send from the defiles of the Saxon
mountains, single . corps to 'mane us into *Bo-
hemia. General Van(!amine, Commander of the
first corps d'arm6e, was ordered to advance
with fifty-two battaHorts, and about five thou-
sand horse from Konigstein, by the way of Pe-
terswaldc. • Nothing was opposed to him but the
corps of t he brave Russian Gen .ostermann,scarcely
composed of 8000 troops, which in the most -gal-
lant manner, disputed, every inch of grompl.—
On the 20th, abont noon, the Imperi Russian
Guards arrived to his relict, after one of the most.
arduous marches. The Commander-in-Chief
dispatched likewiSe to his sulmort n flossiao bri-
gade of .grenadiers from Bichweld. Th,v attar ,k-:
ed the enemy with the courage of lions, and, after
incredible efforts, drove them as far as Karwitz.

11-lit:glorious conduct of the ltdssiam had the etlee
that dispositions could he made for attlekitg the
enemy on the following day. 'Fida.-Nl,srshal
Prince Schwartzettherg, CritnnittuleirAn-Chief, or-

tiered General Barclay de Tolly to
.make the at-
tack, which he executed with his usual judgment.
On .the 30th, in the morni»g; the divisions of
Colleredo and Bianchi, and the Ruislitu brigado of
General Kooning,- turned the left of the enemy,
while the Russians eng-ag:01 his attention on the
right ,and Gen. Kleist directed his march in the rear

of the enemy upon the :144ii of 11011endorl, so as
to cut off every retreat. GiaierM Knorring, tat
the head of his superior cavalry, forced the first,
battery of the enemy, capturing three gnus. The
colunins of Field Marshal Count Colloredo most
gallantly carried the heights on the left of the
enemy', and drove them front Parehwit and Nett-
doff. After an obstinate resistance, the pass of.
Hollemlore was forced by Gen. Kleiwt, the enemy
were thriven to despair ; surroumled on. all sides,
and in front constantly pressed by the Russian,
towards the defiles, only a small portion of the
enemy's horse succeeded in forcing their way ;
the rest were either cut down or made prisoners.
The field of battle is covered with dead ; about
8000 prisoners have been brought in, and are in-
creasing every moment, as search is making after
them in the woods. Eighty-one tons, two eagles,
and two standards fell into our hands; not one of
the enemy's cannon escaped: General Vandtunme,
the General. of Division Haxo, the Brigadier. G-
enerals Guyot and lleimbrodt, are prisoners; Ge-
nerals DlllllolleCtill _Montesquieu, Fezenac, anti
Prince Reuss, fell in the battle. MI the rest were
either. dispersed or wounded. The 'first corps
d'tirm4e, underGen,Vandamme, has ceased to exist.
The fruits of our former demonstrations of act-
ing on the offensive are now apparent. On the
2fith August General Blitcher attacked the corps
of Nracdonald,Lauriston, and Sebastiani, at 3auer,
and defeated them after the roost desperate Oppo-
sition. The enemy is in the greatest dkorthm_
By the last accounts, eighty pit.ces of cannon and
six thonsand prisoners had already been brought
in. The number of prisoners would be yet
greater, had not our troops fought with uncommon
animosity, and employed principally the bayonet.
Colonel Mensdorf operated very siteceslidlyin
the enemy's rear, intercepting, couriers, making
prkoaers, and dispersing several detachments of
horse sent against him. He even kept in awe
the garrison of Leipsig, consisting of 8000 men,
who did not venture out of the town.
