Military Report from 'Colonel Lowe, dated Head-quarter
Army of Silesia, Ferte SOll3 Jouarre, Left Bank of the
Marne, 27th February, 1814.
SIR-A line I addressed to you on thesafter-
noon. of the 25th will have informed you of the,
retreat of Marshal Marmont from Sezanne, and
of this army being in pursuit of him, with the in-
tention of following him on the next day to Ferte
tiaucher. On arrival at Fate, Gaucher, Field
Marshal Bluclier learnt that the enemy bid taken
the direction of Itebais, to which place he foilowed
and halted for the night. Marshal M-ar-•
Mon Chad continued his route to Fert6 Sons Jou-
arre ; the- peasantry represented him to be flying
in disorder, and his troops seeking shelter in the
woods. At Rebais, however, it was learnt that
Marshal Monier, with the Young Guard, had
marched from Chateau Thierry, where he had
been sortie time in observation of General Win-
tingerode, to effect a junction with Marshal Mar-
mont, their joint force amounting to solnewilat
_between 10 and 20,000-men. Ti pass the Marne,
therefore, in presence of such a force, with the
probability that Btionaparte, hearing of the march
of the army of Silesia, in this direction, would de-
tach a force to the rear of it, became an operation
of great delicacy.
The following disposition was made :—the
corps of General Baron Sacken and Gen. Count
Langeton were directed to march on Conlomiers
and Chailly, and to pursue their route this morn-
ing towards Meaux. The corps of Gen. D' Yorck
and Gen. Kleist, after halting for the night at,
and in the vicinity of 'Rehais, were ordered to
march this morning to Ferte Sous jouarre. Gent.
Korf, with a reserve of three thousand cavalry,
formed the rear-guard at hertz; Gaucher. The
demonstration towards Meaux had all the effect
desired. The two French Marshals, who bad
united their force at Ferte Sons Jouarre, precipi
tately abandoned the town, leaving the river in
front of it open to the 'establishment of pontoon
bridges in every direction. Some yagers got over
in small boats, and took possession of the town.
Had the enemy made his stand in this point,
Meaux, or Triport in the vicinity of it, would
have been that where the passage would- have
been effected, this army, by its dispositions, hav-
ing been equally prepared for either.
Two pontoon bridges have been thrown over
the river, and the army is already a chetal on it.
The dispoitions for to-morrow will result from
the reports received during the night. In the
mean time, information has been received of Ge-
neral Winzingerode and General Ilulow having
beetiabout to form a junction. and it is supposed
they are both now neat' Soissons. General Win-
ziogerode had detached' two thousand. cavalry-to
Arcis-sur- Aube.

The mivaneed-guard of General Baron Sacken's
carps has occupied the suburbs of Meaux, on the
left hank of the river. The enemy, it is report-
ed, has abandoned the opposite side of the river
'to Triport, where General Baron Sacken has at
presitt his bead-quarters. Strong cavalry recon-
noissauces are made on every point of the rear.
