Presburgh, general count de pah has
wr;ttrn a telter to which Mar shall Dcvoust
has returned an answer. The two letters
are subjoined-
A body of 5000 eAustrians have en-
trenched themselves in the position OF
.Waldemunche,s on the borders of Bohe-
mia. general paraguay d'Hilliers, at the
heal of three battallicns OF dismounted
dragons marched against thas corps which
preclpitately abandoned their post.
He arrived on the 9Th at Trinity, IN
Bohemia and expected.to oyeriake the a.
bove corps.
Marshal Ney has been appointed to take
possession Of The Tyrcl. lie acquitted
himself with his usual intrepidlty and sa-
gaclty. He turned the forts OF Scharni'z,
and Newstark aud soon made himself mas.
ter of them.
In his Office he took eighteen hundred
men, stand of coiors aud slxteen held
pieces.
On the 9th, att P. M. he made his en-

by an emblematic engraving The French
soldiery entertain Ter their coiors, an at.
,achment which borders on veneration.--
They regard them with The same affection,
as a present from the hands Of mistress.
General Klein has made an lneursion In.
Ia Bohemia, with his division OF arageons.
.He has every where observed the Russians
to be held in the greatest detestaion The
depreda,ions which they commit, causes
loudest lamentations. The irruptlsn OF
these ba,barisns, who have been iuvi cd by
the very governments itself, has almost C
rased from the hearts Of the Aussrlans, all
affection for heir priuce. " We ard the
