lie caused it to be charged-by the brigade of light
cavalry commanded by, General Th.trori Suberviej
The Prussian regimentS, the Wirtemberger3 an{t
Poles, wf.lich.form a part of his h4;,,ade, chaiged
•With the, greatest intrepidity. They overturned a
line of Russia dragoons and hussars, and took
200 prisoners, with their horses, 'When they al•-
riVed on. the other side of the Dlima, they broke
down the bridges, shelved a di ;p osition to tie-
fend the vssage of the river. General Count
Motabrun then brought up his fire batteries of
light artillery, whiCh duriugtievem d hours carried
destruction. into the ranks of the enemy. The
loss of the Russians has been consitlerable.
General Count 'Sehastiani arrived on the same'
day at whence the Emperor of' Russia
bad departed on the preceding evening. •
Oar advanced guard is,upon the Dwina.

General ,Count Nansouty was,. oii
.the ‘sth of
-July, at Paitavoni. In order to pass the'Dziana,
he proceeded :six miles farther on the right of the
King of IcZaples. rile General of Brigade Roussel,
with the',!Jth regiment of Polish light cavalry, and
the 2d regiment of Prussian hussars; passed the
riVer,.overthrcw six Russian squadrOns, sabred a
great number,,and took 45 prisoners, with several
officers. General Nansouty praises the conduct
of 'General Rouss't_nl and mentions with commen-
dation, Lieutenant Borke, of the Prussian hussars,
the sub-o:ficer Krause, and the hussar 'Titan',
His Majesty has granted the insignia of the Legion
of Honour to General Roussel, and to the officers
and sub-officers ,above-named.

General Nansouty took 130 Russian mounted
hussars and dragoons prisoners'.
On the 3d of July the communication was
opened 'between Grodno and,Wilna, by Lida.
The Hetman Platoff, with 6000 Cossacks, when
driven out of Grodno, moved towards Lida, and
found there the French posts. He descended to
Ivie on the sth. •

Gene'ral Count Grouchy occupied Witchnew,
Traboni, and Sonbotnicki. General Baroti Pajol
was at Perchia ; General Baron.,Borde Soult was
at Blakchtoni : Marshal the Prince "of Eckmuhl
was in advance of 13obrowitski, pushing heads of
columns in every direction.
Platoff retreated precipitately on the 6th, to
Nikolaci.v. •
' Prince Ba ;ration baying set out in the begin-
ning of July from Wolkowisk on his route for
Wilna, was intercepted in his march. He turned
back with a view to reach Minsk : anticipated
there by the Price of Eckmuhl, he altered his di-
rection, gave up his intention of proceeding to-
wards the Dwina, and moved towards the Be-
risthenes, by Bobruisk, across the marshes of Be-
, resina.

Marshal the Prince of Eckmuhl entered MinSk
on, the Bth. He: found there considerable maga=
tines of flour, hay, clothing, &e. Bagration had
arrived at Novoi-Sworglew : perceiving that he
was anticipated, he sent orders to burn the maga-
zines ; but the Prince of Eckmuhl did not give time
for effecting these orders.
The King of Westphalia Was on the 9th at No-
wogrodOk, General Regnier at Konina : maga-
zines, baggage-waggons, quantities of medicines,
and straggling parties, fall into our hands every
instant.' The Russian divisions are straying in this
country without any previously arranged route,
pursued on every side, losing their bag; ;age; hu-
n-
ing their magazines, destroying theirartillery, and.
leaving their places without defence; '
General Baron Colbert took at Vileika, a Maga-
zine of 300 quintals of flour., a hundred thousand'
rations of bread, &c, He found also at Vilei-
ka a Chest containing 200,000 francs, in copper
money.
ill these advantages have scarcely cost: the
French army
.a man. Since the opening of the
campaign there have been about thirty killed in all
the corp, about 100 wounded, and•ten prisoners,
whil'A we have ali•eady taken from '2OOO to 2500
Russians prisoners.
The Frince of Schwartzenbnrg pasSed the Bug.
at Droghitschin, pursued the enemy in, different
directions, and made himself master of many bag-
gage carts. The Prince of Schwartzenber, praises
the reception he has met with from the inhabi-
tants, and the, patriotism which animates these

.countries.
Thus ten days after opening the•campaign, our
advanced posts are upon the Dwina. Almost the
whole of Lithuania, containing four millions of
inhabitants, has been conquered. The pperations
of the war commenced at the passage of the Vis-
tula. The projects of the Emperor were from that
time plainly unfolded, and he had no time to lose
in carrying them into execution. Thus, the ar-
my has been making forced marches from the pe-'
riOcl of passing that river, in order to advance, by
'means of manceuvres, upon the Dwina ; for the
distance between the Vistula. and the Dwina is
greater tly4ri that between the Dwina.and Mosiere
or Petersburgh.

The Russians appear to be concentrating them-
selves upon Dunabt:rg : they give out that it is
their intention to wait for us; and to give us bat-

tle before we enter their ancient provinces, after
having abandoned Poland without a contest, as
if they were constrained by justice, and had •
wished. to restore a country badly acquired;. inas-
much as it•had not been gained by treaties, or by
the, right of conquest.
The heat' continues to be very violent.
The people of Poland are in motion on all sides.
Tbe White Eagle is hoisted everywhere. priests,
nobleSi peasants, women, all'eall -for the indepen-
dence of their nation. The peasants are ex-
tremely jealous of the happiness of the peasants
of the Graivl Duchy; who are free; for, what-
ever may hesaid to' the contrary, liberty is con-
sidered by the Lithuanians as the greatest bless-ing. The peasants expre-s themselves With a vi-
vacity of elocution, which would not seem to be-
long to, the climates of the North ; and all em-
brace with transport, the 'hope. that the result of
the struggle will be the re-establishment of their
liberty. The peasants of the Grand Duchy have

the noble loses nothing ; he is only obliged to k

paror, to witness, in crossing 4 the Grand Dacby,
