PROM LIELTT.-GE4. OERTIL TO HIS IMPERIAL MA-

JESTY, DATED THE -- SEPTEMBER, FROM THE

TOWN OF MOSYR.

Towards the end of • August, I. received infor-
mation from all parts of Gen. Dombrotiski having
marched out of Mohilett- with his corps, and had
collected. all the detachineuts left behind ; that he
was besides levying recruits, and waS endeavour-
ing by, all means to join Generals- 'Morlac',owski
and Dzgeyanowski, each of whom corwminds a
division ; and furthermore, that General DOm-
browski was forming depots at Glusk, Witscha,
and Gerbalscherya, with the Intent, after having
Collected provisions togetheesand joined the others,
to blockade the
_fort OE Bobruisk, and there-
by to cut off , the communication between Bo-
bruisk and Mosyr., On. thii intelligence, I
put myself in motion with tlie corps under
my command to destroy the eitethy's magazines,
and to heat them. I accordingly .left.the needful
,nutuber,of troops at Mbsyr for its defence, till my
return, and-on the 30th Aug, (Sept. 12.). put my-
self in march on the road to',Glusk, and on my
road,fell in with many loads ofptovisions and
rage-, as well as cattle which were going to thecae-
my. After having given commands to the drivers
to drive this back again, and return the corn and
cattle to the villages from whence it had been
taken, I, on the 2d (1-Ith)' Sept. at-four P. M.
reached a village, where I. foutid my van-guard,
consisting of the regiment of, Don Cossacks of
Grekowg, and of two squadrons of the hussar re-
giment of t'umysch, a company of the 41st relit. of
Yagers,of the Smolensk regiment of infantry, and,
two pieces of light artillery. Near this place the
enemy ("illy perceiving our cavalry coming out of
the woad; furiously -charged it, but Colonel
Grekow4, with his re..;-iinetit, 4nd the squa-
drons' of` Sumysch hussars,
threw them, and deove them back to t; -..+,!;. Even
, the enemy's infantry, 1000 Strott,e. .IH.e..e en-
camped before Glusk, fell ba •- ;
for which reason I ordered my t ,
and drive the enemy put of this plac.:•,
he sought to establish himself. -The
Gentsky, of the Smolensk regiment ot
instantly arrived there' with 11;s detachnne.-a, :111
, sent a company of yagers of the 41st, and sonic
volunteer sharp-,shooters belonging to the h:.z.tta-•
lion Under his command, and placed himself, with
one battalion, and two-) pieces of artillery, in front
of the place; when the eneiny's infantry per-
Ceived ours, they divided themselves into two
parts. The one half - remained iu the empty
houses, from whence they were, howevev, driven,
notwithstanding .the obstinate defence they
made, and their advantageous position, iri the
course of an hour 5-the other half at the.satne
time retreated across the river, and in their:re--
. treat destroyed the bridge, on the other side of
which he, however, halted, and brought up two
pieCes of cannon to defend it, and the rernainder
of their flying troops. Major Gentout took post
nt Glusk, and acted so effectually with his corps,
that, With the assistance Of the hussars of the Su-
mysk Regiment, and the Don Cossacks of Colonel
Grekow, which• they gave on the other side, he
threw the enemy into disorder, who, after a two
hours' engagement fled, and left us masters' of the
field of battle; and a, magazine of provisions
Which they had collected, of which the necessary
quantity was used for the support 'of the troops,
and the remainder returned to its former owners.
The7hospital, with 150 men, also fell into our
hands. , We took, three Officers priSoners, among
whont is the late ComMander, Glusk„ and
men. ,On our side we had only one superior
Officer„ and 23 men of lesser rank, killed.;
' Having gained the victory over the enemy at
this point, I, took my way to Wiltscha and Gor-
batschewitsche, 'to prevent his joining the corps
of General Matachousko; and to allow. the Others
time to rec Over themselves. Agreeably to this,
on the same evening, having repaired the bridge,
nay van-guard crossed over to the other side, and
on the 3d (15th) September,. at day-break, I be-
gan to pursue the 'flying enemy with the corps Un-
der. my command. On this road I likewise found ,
numbea 'of waggons laden, with provisions and
fbage, all' which I returned 'to the places froth
'whence•they. came.
At six wersts from Gehatschewitschi, my van-
guard, which was two worsts before me, was, in
a very narrow defile, received by a considerable.
number of the enemy, with a battery of two pieces
of cannon ; on their flank, were posted sharp-
shooters. Finding 'myself at this distance from
my van-guard, I surmised that the enemy, see-
ing only this detachment, would • endeavon: to
cut it off. The enemy puShed
,hard on our van-
guard, which I dir:cted to fall back in good Or- -
der, and with slow pace, to• join the corps. Af-
terwards my vanguard, composed, of. two Yager
battalions of the .6th and 41st regiments., and of
the 'Don Cossack' regiunent,, I cominanded them
to disperse themselves in the woods on the flank.
1 Myself marched forward, placing the brave
Smolensk battalion' in front of the column, cans-
e„d the other battalions to Join it close, and com-
:'inanded, them not to stay behind the Smolensk

hattaliori, and that the coiatMng should follow
on each other. The rest of the artillery I
pliteel in the :centre of the fant y , and the ca-
.vahy on the sides of-the roads on wile.l.l :the in-
fantry, Oil acbonnt OF the narrowness of the de-
file, could only meren iu half
.plattu and the
(-.tvairy two , abreal.:_t. After having ordered
my troops in this manntr, I marched , for-
ward, and drove the enemy out of his first forti-
fied* pOsition.., Although.l. had to pa.ss through'
narrow defiles, itnd stirroi,n_ded by the enemy,
yet neither the danger; nor the heat Of the elle=
nry's 'which NN*' as tit) on us.- on all sides;
could detain your imptrialALtjesty's trQops..
Smolensk battalion,*under its gallant Coannantie.r,
distinguished itself in a most :striking nnanner)
thrice it drove the enemy 'out-of the'very strongest *.
poSilion, and it iris Merely•the darkness of the..
night, and our not being perfectly aequainted
with, the roads and„ situation, which saved the
th eher from total.destruction. " The -battle oom-, •
menced at five o'clocli, and ended at eleven o',elock.
at night. After the • quick retreat made by the
enemy &Om all the'places possessed by him; I re---
116:hied on the field of battle till nine in' the morn-'
ing. This cOrps, of. the enemy consisted .0f 5001)
men, real French troops, commanded by GEncral
Dztieanowske, and under hitn the Grand Major
GuerSan; Adjutant to Marshal Junot, was next in
command.

After dcft.ating the enemy, and restoring the
communication with Mosyr, I rctuined there again
the following day,. all on the 10th (22) SITt.
arrived here. ' In these battles we have taken five
superior officers, and men of lower rank, and
they have left above 1000 men dead on the field of
battle. The losS- oil our side is, trilling-, compared
with that of the, enemy; it consits of one' oiiicer
and 76 men killed, and three Officers and 101 rank
and file Wounded: ,

This, ciirersiou, so totally une.xperted‘ by the
enemy, has . olitained for us the following 4-
vantages

1 _ General Dombrowski baS hereupon collected
all his forces together, and is retreating ‘\baek to
leaving the fortress of Bobruisk free,
WhiCh was surrounded_ by him on all sides.
2. !All the convoys passing from Repichiza and
Logew, with! the supplies of cqt-le for the provi-
sioning that fortress, can now pass without danger,
and bring us 'sufficient provisions.
3'. The magazines (.•(ilected by the enemy are
destvoyed,, and the whole eneiny'S corps of 5000
men, is, notwithstanding our very severe march,
having been obliged to' perform 3SO worsts in
_eleven days; without one day of rest, totally dis-
persed. were eight hours engaged in battle,
and twice twenty-four hours we were -5,--y;ithout
water, and almost without any thing to eat :
but no hindrances could, prevent your imperial
Majesty's
,troops from pressing on to the defeat of
their enemies.

The re,riainder of this dispatch consists of af-
fairs of posts; in all of which the itnSsians, who
e4ei-ed Pinsk, appear to hare had the advan-
tage. .„
