Doulevent, from whence he was directed to advance
upon the road by Tremilly to Chaumenil.
Two divisions of Russian grenadiers, and a division
of cuirassiers, amounting to about six thousand men,
and forming a part of the reserve under the orders,
of General .Barclay de Tolli, formed the suppeif 'of
the different corps, and were engaged in the actiohiof r
this day.
General Blucher kegan his. attack at mut.. twelve
o'clock, by advancing the corps of t;,her,d
towards Dienville, and by forming the divisions of his
own corps in front of La Rothiere.
The -Preince Royal of Wirternburgh *advanced
about the same time frotn Maison upon La Gibrie ;'
he was strongly opposed in the woods about that
place, but at last succeeded in forcing `the enemy
to retire; and in carrying the village. The enemy
made an attempt to retake this position, but was re-
ceived most gallantly by the troops of the Prince
Royal, and totally repalsed. During the latter part
of his attack, the corps of General Wrede arrived
upon the right of the Prince Royal, and immedi-
ately advanced upon Tremilly.
The Uhlans of Prince Schwartzenburgh made a
most successful charge in-front of that village, and
took six pieces of cannon. General Wrede possessed
himself of the place.
General Sachen finding that his right was secured
by the successes which had attended the attack of the
Prince Royal of Wirternburgh and General Wrede,
determined to attack the centre of the enemy's posi-
tion at La Rothiere. - While his infantry' were en-
gaged in the attack of the village, General Blucher
directed a charge of cavalry upon the right of it,
vihich was attended with complete success ktwenty

pieces of cannon were captured, and a considerable
number of the cavalry of Bonaparte's guard were
killed or taken.
The enemy was driven from La Rothiere, and not-
withstanding several attempts to retake it, was finally
baffled in his object.
General Guilay, late in-the evening, advanced upon
Dienville. I left the ground with Prince Schwan-
zenburgh before this movement had been completed,
but the report has since arrived that he succeeded in
taking the part of the village on the right of the
.Aube, the enemy having retirea to the other side of
that river, and having destroyed the bridge.
So ended, my Lord, the affair of this day;—the
enemy still held the ground beyond La Rothiere,
and was still in possession at dark of the heights
of Brienne.
The Russian and Prussian guards have already
arrived near Trannes, and td-inorrow will be in
pos4iou to support the attack of the enemy's re-
maining positions.
The corps of General Colloredo. arrived this day
at Vendceuvres, and will arrive to-morrow morning
at Dienville.

The corps of General Wittgenstein and D'York

are marching upbn Vitry.
ft appears that the three corps of Marshals Mar-
:nom, Mortier, and Victor, were present in the
action of this day. Genekals Colbert and Gronchy
were also present.
. I have not been 'able to ascertain the remaining
corps which formed part of the enemy's force.
I beg to congratulate your Lordship upon this
first success in a general affair on the territory of
France.--I hive the honour to be, &c.

village, and contributed materially by his exertions in
the repulse of the enemy.
General Guilay was engaged till near twelve
o'clock in the attack, of Dienville : the vigorous op-

session. • _ _
