MitITSItY REPORT.
" Head-quarters, Franktoit, Nov. 17.
"•The Emperor NNapoleon Ifud, when he retired
with his army to the vicinity of Leipsic, left Mar-
shal St. C.yr's corps in Dresden, iu order to re-
Main master of that strong place, and of the Elbe,
until the battle which %Vqs expected, awl the fttr-
tnuate issue of which he scented conlitlently to
calculate upon, should have permitted I)int to re-
•ttirn towards the Elbe. The loss of .that battle
must have necessarily caused the fall a Dresden.
In order to accelerate it, the Conumintle;in Chief,
Prince SchWartzenberg, deemed it necessary to
teinforce the Itrissian Lieutenant-General Count.
Tolstoy, who had heeti left by the General of Ca-
valry rutron Llenningsen, in the enviroaS of Dres-
den. He appninred, for that purpose the corp
the-Getieral. of Cavalry Count Klenau, Nvito„ on
the 20th Ootoher, marched with the troops under•.
his command for that destination.
" In the mean time, !,q...,trsha! St; Cyr had quit.
ted Dresden by the left bank of the Elbe, with the
greater part of !di corps ; but Count lilenau,
conjointly with Lieutenant-Gencral Count Tols-
toy; throve him back into the city, and shut hint
nli there. Marshal St: Cyr pet eek•ed that his
situation was cxtrealely critical and on the lith.
of November, he attached the corps of Field.:
Marshal Prince Von Wied Ranker,' who blockad
ed the city, oil the right bank of the Elbe. The
project of the enemy was to penetratelo Torgan,
and abandon DrestlcOas untenable. The vigorints
resistance of the troops under the orders of Prince
Wieth !Nuke' baffled all the attempts of the
enemy, thul obliged'him once more to retire with-
in Dresden:

1 ht
sit nation of the enemy was desperate:
Having neither provisions nor ammunition, he
found himself compelled' to offer, without- ithy
;li:unions on our part, a capitulation to General
Count Klehah. In the proposals made by Mar •
sbal Cyr, he declared his corps prisoners of
%vol., but on condition of being allowed to return
to France, and at the conclusion of six 1110111113,
of again serving against the .Allied rowers.. Ge.
Lend Count Klenan intimated to hint in writing,
the be bud no power to grant conditions so ad-
vantageous; and that he had reason to fear that
lie might be rendered responsible it he did so,
Rut this declaration did not prevent Marshal St.
Cyr from renewing his proposals of 'capitulation ;
though, as an experienced General, 'he might
.have foreseen that the Commander in Chief, Mar.
shol Prince Bchwart4enfierg, would not accede
to them. By virtue of this capitulation, which
was signed on the llth, the garrison was allow.
erl ti, return freely into France, upon condition of
not selling, for. six .monthii, against the Allied
.Powers. It was to have marched it) six columns.
The first left Dresden on the 12th—the. last was
to depart on the 17th,

desire of sparing
,the city, and of being
able to conduct his troops to another destination,
could have alone determined General Count Kle-
man to sign a. capitulation, which was directly
contrary to the orders he had previously received
from the Field-Murshal the Commandetin-Chief.
The Field-Marshal is therefore placed under
the very disagreeable necessity of disapproving or
the conduct of the •General of Cavalry, Count.
klenau, and of refusing; to sanction this capitu-
}idiot.). The General of Artillery, the Marquis do
Chaste.ler, has, in consequence, received orders
to communicate. this .resolution. to.'Marslial. St..
Cyr, and.to replace the enemy's- corps in posses-
sion- of Dresden, and of all the .means' of defence,.
without exception, which it had previous to the •
*signature of the :capitulation.
" The otrerSolcapitulation made by the city of
Erfurth have been rejected by, Lieutenant-General
•ii.WSt; but the armistice granted to the garrison
On the 7th has been prolonged to the 20th. • •

tin, Switin has surrendered. The garrison was

war:

to return to France. The Dalmatians, who are
the must numerous, return .to their homes. -
There was found in the fort a great quantity of.
artillery, ammunition, and provisions: ' • '•
Count Narbonne, •Governor of Torgau, has al-
lowed the Saxon Genbral Millentheim, with 1000
men, to depart freely from that fortress. They.
have. joined the Prussian corps under General
Wobeser, in front ut'Torgau.
According to intelligence received from the
frontiers of Servia, the Grand Vizier made a so-
lemn entry into Belgrade', at three o'clock; on the
«gth tilt. A complete amnesty is expected to he
published forthwith:'

it will 'be recollected that iltionaparte has at-
tributed the grtater p,u t of-the lass suffered on
the day of his retreat from Leipsie, to the pre.
mature blowing np of a. bridge by a corporal of
sappers. Tri the Austrian Bulletin of the 25th Oct,
we. find the following passage alluding to this:
subject The courier, who—was iirorying st,
Paris reports of the battles of the 16th and It3th,
and of the taking of Leipsic of the 19th, has beeir
intercepted. According to the dispatches found
upon- him, the-Allied Armies were completely
beaten on the two former days ; and they ascribe
the extraordinary number of prisoners taken at
Leipsic, to the premature blowing up of a bridge.
" This circumstance was entirely unknown to
the Allies, who pasSed the said bridge, and pur-
sued the enemy without intermission "
