Part of the rear guard of the enemy, coMprifing ten I
'thoufand cavalry, and fifteen- thoufand infantry,
took a pofition at Glottan, and attempted to dirt

64 The light brigades of cavalry under G-nerals

BATTLE OF Well_ to.
" On the toth the army moved towards Heilfuerg.
It took feveral of the enemy's camps. About a quar-
ter of a league beyond thefe camps, the enemy (hew-
ed himfelf in a pofition. He had between is and
Mono cavalry?, and feveral lines of infantry. The 1
Cuiraffiers of the Divifion d'Efpagne, the Divifion of
Laintir, Mabourg's Drapons, and the Brigade" of
light cavalry, made feveral charges, and gained
ground. At two o'clock, the corps under Martha
Soult was formed. Two divifinns marched to the
right, while the divifion of Lagrande marched to the
left, to feize on the extremity of a wood, the occu-
pation of which was neceffary, in order to 'import
the left of the cavalry, and made various efforts to
maintain themfelves in the potations befo7e Heilf-
berg. More than 6o pieces of cannon fcattered death
in fupprxting the enemy's columns, which our divi-
flout neverthelef repulfed, with the mon unexam-
pled intrepidity, and the characterinic impetuolity
of the French. Several Ruffian divifi were rout•
td, and at nine in the evening we found ourfelves
under the enemy's entrenchments.
" The Wilier: of the guard, commanded by Ge-
r.eral Savary, were. put in motion to fuflain the clivi-
lion of Verdict ; and Come of the corps of infantry
of the referee, under Niarfh4l Lannes were engaged,
it being already night-fall ; they rtacked the enemy
with the vicar of cutting off his cornmunicaticn with
Lanfberg, and fucceeded completely.
" The ardour of the troops was fuch, that feveral
companies of the infantry of the line infulted the en-
trenched works of the Ruffians. Some brave men
met their deaths in the ditches of the redoubts, at
the foot of the palifades.
The Emperor paired the It th on the field of
battle. He there arranged the corps of the army,
and the divifions, preparatory to a decifive action,
fucl i one as,ffinold put an end to the war. The
whole of the Ruffian army was collefied.
" The Ruffin magazines were at Heilfberg t tbe
Ruffians oteupied a fine pofition, utbich nature bad
Tendered ivory (ben, and Which .gief.inexesifed
the lalpaiir of four months.
sl.At our in the afternoon, the Emperor ordered
Marfhal Davoull to-change his front, and puib for
ward his,kft. This movement brought him upon
the Lower Alle, and enlighten blocked up the road
from tyke.
48 Every corits of the army had its poll affigned to
it ; they' were all re•affembled, the firft corps excep
ted, which continued !gem the Lower Paffarge.
" Thus the Ruffians, whil were the firft to begin
the battle, found themfelves (hut ttp in their int; ench•
ed camp, and were compelled to give battle in the
porta rn they had chnfen themfelves. It was for a
long time believed they would make an attack on
the t ith. At the moment When the French were
making their difpofitions, the Ruffians (hewed them.
(elves, ranged in columns, in the mitlfl of their en-
trenchments, fortified with numerous batteries.
66 But whether thole entrenchments did not appear
• fufficiently formidable, after viewing the preparations
which.they faw before them ; or whether the impe-
tuofity which the French army had (hewn on the
loth, had an effect upon them, they began to pafs
the Alie at ten o'clock at night, abandoning the
whoie country' to the left, and leaving to the difpn•
of the enecuteror, their wo. n led, their maga-
zines; and their intrenchments, the refult of long and
painful labour.
66 On the iztli, at day break, all the corps of the
army were in motion, and rook different diretlions.
" The hnufes at Heilfberg and its neighbourhood
'are filled with wounded Ruffians. The refolt of the
different affairs from the sth to thy tzth has depriv-
ed the Ruffian army of about 50,000 fighting men .

PARIS. IMO
Yefterday, at five o'clock in the evenLtg, arrived
his Imperial Highnefs Prince Blrghefe, at the Palace
of St. Cloud, ana brought to the Emprefs, from the
Emperor, the intelligence of a frefh victory, obtained
on the 14th infl. at Friedland, by the 'troops of the
Grand Army, commanded by his Majefty in perfon.
The following account has been received from the
head quarters, which we are authorized to publifh, as

neftnefs ; the bell concerted manoeuvres had alrerdy
prepared the *Wel ; the difficulry was not fo much
to defeat the Ruffians as to compel them to fight.
On the I,3th the Ethpetor advanced to Eylau, and

purfued, and in diforder, found- themfclves on the

battle was not doubtful for an infant, nor did vie.
tory hefitate a moment from the commencement of
the combat. The Ruffian imperial guard is the
corps which has,fuffered moll : they write that it has
, been annihilated.

His Impttial Hightefs Prince Borghefe met a
courier at Thorn, which Marfhal Maffena had fent
to the Emperor with an account of a complete vic-
tory gained by him over the Ruffians, in which a
confiderable number of the latter were killed and
wounded, and 6oao prifoners taken. If the bulletin
which is wet:led, has not yet arrived, its delay is to
be attributed to the circumfiances of his Malay hav-
ing paired every night in the open field, and to the
head quatters being continually moving. In the
mean while we publith extrafts of two intercepted
letters, which we can Rate to be authentic,

the remains of the defeated army.—Mem.

The write from Stutgard, under date of tbe.tsitikl
June, that accounts had jud :beets received, that ihe
fewer* of .Cozel in Silefia, had at )all furrendered.
This intelligence requires confirmation; the tru'h is,
that meaferes were already taken 4or the junEtion of
General Vandarrime, with' the corps which block-
ades that fortrefs, as loon as his troops Ihould have
taken pact:lion of Neiffe, with a view of accelerating
the redation of the formet.
The Pr uflian General Klein is covering Giatz with
entrenchments,. to which place the French will ad-
vance as loon as Cozel and Nei& are in their pofTef-

the laid fortreffer, difheartened as it would feem by
the taking cf Dant zic.—(La Akja June. 27.)

A letter of good authority, from Thorn, mentions,
that the Ruffians on the t ith attacked Mrllll4l Mal
Pena, in his pofition at Pratnitz, with a much lupe'
rior force, but that thi Martha' attacked them in
turn on the 12th, with his whole corps, defeated

as if they intended to crofs. the Narew near Rozan ;
at the fame time they attacked the camp of 13..f1ei;
with a column of 6000 men, aOOO cavalry, and fome
Pulks ofSofracks. The enemy's fopetior numbers, ,
and the numerous batteries which he opened on the
other fide of the river, obliged G.:mai Claprede,

after *a obninate refinance, to eyaeuate the camp.
and retire wirh.his twelve companies of the Ilth re-1

in motion. General aainis was attacked upon. his
whole line, but in, taut. By the various motions Of
the enemy, the Madhal was convinced that it was '
neoeffary to turn his principal-attention to Dornsewo.
and Bond. His EXcellency, therefore, gave orders
to march :spina the 'Ruffians, and, notwithflanding
the entrenchments- which they had hafiily thrown
up, the camp of Bofki was carried by the bayonets,
of the t7th Regiment, while the enemy was ponied
and driven on the other fide of the °mete*, where
he was only enabled to form again under his nume-

Several private letters from Leghorn ancf Were

but made no further progrefs in that country : fince
their nnfuccefsful attack on Rofetta, they have con.
fined themfelves to the activation of the coat and
town of Egypt, where they. expelled the promifed
reinforcements. The number of troops they have
at prefent in that country is too viiak, efpecially in
horfe, to venture upon any important enterprize.
The Turks, and Arnauts afrembled •in Egypt have
on their part undertaken nothing againft Alexandria,

The Engin General, Frazer, has fent feieral

a neutral veffel • which arrived drat from Alexan-

" On the tSth ;al at ten minutes before four in the
afternoon, a dreadful fltock of an Earthquake was
felt here, which lafled about 8 feconds : le was snore
(evere than the great one in 1755, but thank GOD, not

A FRENCH SQUADRON AT SEA.
An Accoupt.was reccived at Lifbon on the day the

the line and foot frigates (French) had efcaped from
Rochefort—Cho:l.ly after which, this velrel had fallen
in with Come Brea' frigates and gave them informa-
tion of the Courfe they took.

In the courfe, of Mr. Placsvaes fpeech, in Tuef-
day's debate, he exprefred in wrong terms the pride
that he felt in having been a subordinate Member of
Lord Sinatouvit's Adminiftration ; which he empha-
tically dcfcribed to have been a model of purity.
We have received American Papers to the 6th tilt.
