MILITARY REPORT.

" Head-quarters, Bar-stir-Aube, Feb.ls, 1814.
" The movement to the right back of the Seine
was effected on the 23d, in the presence of the
enemy. - Troyes alone remained occupied on that
day; and in the direction of Sens was.the light
division of Prince Lichtenstein, supported by the
3d army corps Under Count Criulay.
" On the 24th, , the enemy's whole force co-
vered the heights of Troyes • our advanced posts
retired into, the suburbs; at-don the road of Sens
an action took place with our cavalry merely,
which supported its old renown, and repulsed all
the enemy's attacks.

"At night-fall the enemy occupied the suburbs
of Troyes, which we had evacuated. He ventur-
ed three attacks upon the city, which were re-
pelled by the valour of General Volkmann and his
brigade.

"The enemy at last proposed a convention for
evacuating the city, which- was no longer-of im-
portane to us,. as the army had already taken up
its position on the other bank ; thus, Was Troyes
delivered up to the enemy next day, at six in the
Morning.

Count Ginlay, and the division Lichtenstein,
retired towards Bar-sur-Seine, in which direction
they were followed by some cavalry regiments of
the enemy, which durst not, however, attempt

hny derided attack on the united masses of the
corps.
In the mean time, Marshal Blucher, by a
rapid movement towards the Marne, executed a
part of the grand
,plan, according to which of-
fentive operations were t( be carried on with ac-
tivity, and in great masses. Ile crossed the Aube
at Baudemont, with three pantonns, to attack
Marshal Marmont,.who, on the 24th, was still at
Sezanne.

" Generals Billow, Winzingerode, Woronzow,
and the Duke of Weymar, are in communication
With the corps of Marshal Blucher, who has taken
the.command of this numerous army, and has
begun his operations in the rear aid on the left
wing of the enemy."

• " Head-quarters, Colombey, March 2.
" The assembled corps or Marshals Oudinot,
Victor, and Macdonald, united with the cavalry
division of Generals-Milhaud and Nansouty, at-
tacked on the 27th ult. our position on the Aube,
Which was defended by the 6th army-corps, under
Count Wittgenstein, and the sth under General
Wrcde.
" The attacks of the, enemy who had received -
peremptory orders to force this position', were very
severe ; Bar-snr-Aube was taken by him ; he had
occupied the heights of Arconval and the wood of
Levigny, with the apparent
.viewof 'carrying the
heights .of Vernonfait, which was the centre of
our position:
As soon as our columns were fornied and in
teadineSs to march, the Commander-in-Chief,
who was with them at the very commencement of
the action, 'ordered a general attack on all the
'points occupied by the enemy. The advanced'
posts of Count Wittgenstein were withdrawn upon
the reserves of Prince Gortschakoff..; while Gen.
Pahlen, with his cavalry, supported by the infan-
try of Prince Eugene of Wurtemberg, penetrated
over the heights of Arentiere and Levigny, in the
rear of the enemy.
".At the same time the reserve infantry and
the .division of Russian cuirassiers drove the
enemy from the heights of Verboufait, which . he
had mastered by a warm attack.
" The enemy's cavalry thrice charged, to cover
'their flying infantry ; but a well-timed tire of
grape-shot from the Russian artillery posted there 4
drove them bilek in disorder. The enemy still
occupied the heights of Arcouval with strong
masses ; but a .veil ordered flank-march of Gen.
Volktnarin's, in concert with another, under the
direction of the Bavarian Colbnel Herding, ex-
pelled him from this position also. At the same
• time Gen. Wrede stormed and took possession of
Bar,sur-Atibe. The' victory was decided ; and
the enemy fled in disorder towards Vandoeuvres;
which is already occupied by our troops. ! •
" The field of battle was covered with the ene-
my's dead ; more than 800 pi isoners, whose num-
bers are every. hour encreasing, and among whtnn
is Colonel Moncey, the brother of the Marshal,
two pieces of cannon, and some hundreds of mus-
kets, are,the jruiti of this brilliant day. All the
troops maintained their old renown. The Com-
mander in Chief and Count Wittgenstein were
both slightly wounded.
" While the,Main army of the enemy has thus
been kept- employed, Marshal Blucher, in con-
Curutign 'oenoue Lu Inrerhat
posts of Marshal Marmon't, and thrown a bridge
- over the Macrae.
" The enemy, in consequence of the manceuvres
of the Allied Armies, has been compelled to se-
parate his force, and has gone in person against
Marshal Blucher, the direction of whose march
must give rise to great events." •

According to the reports of several deserters,
arrived at our outposts, the army of the enemy
