OF that date report, that Bonaparte finding
himself straitened with respect to provisions
had applied to the Austrian emperor and
the archduke Charles, in behalf of the inha-

scarcity which prevails in his camp will

Third Column.
This column, according to its destination,
had began its march from its position at
Sciering, by the road of Suss .ntrunn and
Rreitenlec. Some divisions OF sORenlys
light horse and chasseurs formed the adj
vanced guard of the column, and at three
o'clock in the afternoon met near Hirsch-
stetten, the left wing Of the enemy, which
consisted mostly of cavalry.
! AS about this time the first and second
columns advanced ihtrepidly upon Aspern,
and the enemy began total back to his po-
sition between Esslingen and Aspern, lieut..
gen. Hohenzollern ordered up his batteries,
and very brisk cannonade commenced ON
both sides.
The first line formed in close columns OF
battalions, and advanced with the greatest
resolution upon the enemy, when his cava-
nv suddenly rushed forward in such dispro-
portionate numbers, and with such rapidlty,
thar there was scarcely time to save the ar
tillery which had been brought up, and the
battalions left to defend themselves by their
own unsupported exertions. This was the
remarkable moment in which the regiments
of Zach, Jos. Colloredo, Zettwitz, Froon,
battalion Of STEMS, and the second bat
talon of the archduke Charles's legion, un-
der the conduct of lieut.. gen. Brady, and
generals Buresch, Meier, and Roller, de.
monstrated with unparalleled fortitude. what
the fixed determination to conquer or die is
capable of efecting against the most impe.
tuous attacks.
The enemy's cavalry turned these batta-
lions on both wings, penetrated between
them, repulsed the squadrons of O'RielIy's
light horse, who were unable to Withstand
such a superior force, and in the confidence
of victory, summoned these corps of he
roes to lay down their arms. A well di-
rected and destructive fire was the answer
to this degrading proposition, and the enc
myas cavalry abandoned the field, leaving
behind them considerable number OF dead.
This corps, as we'll as the others, passed
the night on the field OF battle.
