Yefterday morning, about ten o'clock, arrived

were fent off to all our armies. They arc the
bearers of orders to the Generals to fufpend hof-
tilities on both the theatres of war, in cenfequence
lot' a general armillice demanded by the EMPEROR,
and accepted by the French Government. A line
of demarcation, drawn at the diftance of twenty
leagues in front of Vienna, will fcparate the two
ihoftile armies; and the EMPEROR promifes to con-
clude a peace during the armiftice, whatever may
be the determination of his Allies with refpeft to

portant confcquenccs. The Pruffian officer who

ARMY OP THE RHINE.
(summits Or A PRIVATE LITTIR
Head-quarters at SA:burg, Dce. t 6.
After the paffage of the Inn, the enemy had not
a moment's refpite ; purfued from pofition to po-
fition by the right wing, it fuftained, on the r4th,
before Salzburg, a battle which lolled the whole
of the day with almoft unexampled fury. La-
conia* found there the great body of the enemy's
army occupying an advantageous pofition, having
a very numerous artillery, augmented with that
of the Prince Whop, which made a molt dreadful
fire. Notwithftanding this difproportion of foicei,
Laconia' drove them' back the whole day. The
charges of cavalry, executed with a bravery that
belongs only to the French, under a terrible fire,
, killed a great number of them. The dragoons of
Waldeck particularly will long remember that
day on which our t Ith dragoons made them pay
very dear. Our loffes have been principally oe-
cafioned by the bullet. The 9th luaus has 101 l
its brave commander, Duca talus ; he was killed
by a cannon-ball.. The Adjutant-Commandant,
MANOIN, had his right arm (battered at the Gde
of LECOURIII. The General-of Brigade, Scams',
was wounded ; the light artillery has 101 l the
brave officer CLAY EL. It was intended to renew
the attack next day at five in the morning. The
centre, mules the immediate command of the Ge-
neral in Chi ef, having pallid the Saiza near Lauffen,
was to turn the enemy's right, whilft the corps of
Lscouass was to confine itfelf for the moment to
the defenfive, which it was quickly to change into
an offenfive, deftruitive to the enemy. But they
had the good fenfe not to wait for us. At three
in the morning their laft-columns retired, carrying
off the cannons of the Prince, and every thing
which they could take away. The centre and left
arc in purfuit of them, while Lieutenant-General
Lacon a." E proceeds along the mountains, to watch
the debauches of the Tyrol, and facilitate the ope-
rations of the reit of the army. We are affured
that the enemy waits for us behind the Lintz ;
may it be fo, that we may try its ftrength once
more, and put an end to it.
