in motion, to take positions in front of Thionville and

MAY
The Prussians who were on the frontiers, its the di.
fection of Thionville and Longwy hate made a
movement to their right. It seems that they are pro-
ceeding towards the Meuse, in the direction of Na-
nny. The news of the great success of the King of
Naples over the Austrians has reached us by way of
Switiettand and Frankfort, where it has excited great
joy. If apilearg that the Prince enticed the Austrians
to follow him they bad the imprudence to divide
into two colunins : one of which advanced upon
Rome, and the other Upon Ancona. The king, after
uniting his fortes, marched against the latter, which
w the left eolnren, commanded by Lieutenant Field
Marshal Count Nejpperg, took 80011 priloners and 28
pieces of cannon one Lieutenant Field Marshal was
wounded, together with four other Generals, several
of whom, it seems, have been taken. Some letters say
that it was General Bianchi who was wounded; ac-
torchng to others it was General Neipperg.
