Lyons, is estimated at 9000 men.. Vv-e had al-

:.were no troops 1:1 the town ; but for the honour
of .the place, he could not receive them in such
small numbers. At noun they came. with

.affair of the 29th,:and.was penetrated, notwith-:
standing all the resistance it could make. Since
this morning; infantry,
,cavalry,: and artillery,
have not.ceased to arrive. It is certain that some
Cossacks yesterday had occupied the commune of
Vetry-le-liride ; they -si,;nitied to the MayOr
to remit them a contribution within a few hours
it was promised them; hut in the. mean time
the • inlod.ritants found means to inform the
Commandant - General of Vetry -le -Francais,
who immediate sent off a detachment .pf
POlish.Lancers, accompanied with the National
Guards of the town of Vetry. Surprised at its ar=
rival to find no person, the detachment fired a few
musket shots: The'Cossacks their sheaved them-
selves, and were •ittacked with 'Mich impetuosity.
About a quarter of _them were killed; others
wounded, snd a great number taken prisoners
The inhabitants of Vetry-le-Brule effectually se-
conded, and thus concurred to the defence and
the deliverance of their territory. An old man,
82 years of age, killed. a Cossack with a musket
shot.

Parties of the enemy spewed themselves on the
'side of Helinrta,; measures were taken to clear
the country of 'them.

The defiles of the Argenne are occupied by our
troops.

Nothing can equal the insolence of the enemy's
troops. At St. Denier the soldiers talked openly
of the project of dismembering France.

continues. Though all the houses are full of sol-
diers, the most perfect good order prevails in the

ORDER OF THE DAY.

Liole, Jan.,'29:--16ti

In consequence of-a general-merement, combine:l4,d ot-
dei'ed by his Majesty the Emperor, the-enemy has thrown
some -parties of cavalry on his right flank, to disturb the Army
of Antwerp. It may be Isossible that some of these parties
may dare to present themselyes towards the frontiers of the
divisian, hoping to impo,le on it by their presence and their
fallacious proclamations. They will_ be deceived Su their vain
hope, they will every where tied a barrier of iron and of fire ;
in fine, they wilt every where find •Frenchmen. •
The Emperor•has set out for his army. Some partial.- af-
tairs, uttorly to our advantage, have already taken place, and
lead us to expect the osost happy results from. his
i-judicious
combinations. It will be necessary in the present.cireinn--
staeces, to redouble our Zeal, activity, courage, and watch-
fulness. 'Ve. niust not. expect to be completely supplied
with all we want, but must snake the best use IKe can of our
resources, which will'enable us to derive every possible a -
vaisfage. • • • •
The Commandans d'Armtle will take all possible measures
of precaution to prevent every kind of surprise, and to gain
information of the Movements
,w ids the enemy may attempt.
They-will previously take the necessary measures to tutrothice
into the -places, in case the enemy should present himself,
the nearest- brigades of gens-d'artnerie. and all the persons
employed by Government, in all the administrations, whom
they shall form into companies, to which they shall assign a
service analogous to their functions. The Commandans
trArnieS shall hasten as much as possible, bringing in 'pro-
visions for a siegs.
The men leaving the hospitals, and acknowledged fit to per-
form active service,.shali be afterwards incorporated in the
depetts which are in the place, it there are no dep3ts among
the detachment of troops which are in the place.
The enemy is not strong-; he can attempt nothing serious;
it is therefore only necessary to take precautions against coups
de main and surprises. I rely on the zeal and elevotednesi of
the Commandants, to do all that the good of the service
shall require under these circumstances.
