OFFICIALNEWS FROM THE
GRAND ARMY.

PARIS, 1911 February.
Her Majesty the Empress Queen and Re
gent has received the following accounts
from the army to the 17sh, in the morn>
ing.
The Emperor when he set off from No
gent on the 9th, to mannuvre on the ere
my corps advancing upon Paris by La Ferte
and Meaux, left the corps of the duke of
Belluno Victor] and gen. Gerard in ad-
vance OF Nogent; the 9TH corps of the duke
of Reggie (Oudinot) at Provins, charged
with the defence of the bridges of Bray and
Montersau, and gen. Patel on Montereau &
Melun.
The duke of Belluno (victor) having been
advised that several divisions of the Austri,
an army had marched from Troyes durina
the 10th. On their advance upon Nogen,.
caused his corps of the army to repass the,
Seine, leaving general Bourmout with 1900
men at Nogent for the defence Of the town.
The enemy presented himself before No
gent on the 18th, and renewed his attacks
the whole day, but always in vain being
briskiy repulsed with the loss of 1900 men
Killed or wounded, gen BourmouI had bar
ricaded the streets, raised ba,te neuts on
| the houses, and taken all his measures for
vigorous defence. This general, who is a
distinguished officer, being wounded il. the
knee, was replaced by col. Xavier. The
enemy renewed his attack on the 18th, but
! always abortiveiy.--Our young troops CO.
vered themselves with glory. These two
days cost the enemy more than 1000 men.
The duke of Bellano (Vctor) under
standing that the enemy had passed Bray,
deemed It expedient to cut away the bridge
at Nogent and to repair to Nanges. The
duke OF Reggie [Oudinot) ordered the bridg.
es OF Montereau and Melun to be blown up,
and retired upon the river Yeres.
On the 10th the Emperor arrived upon
the Yeres and established his head quarters
at Guignes.
On the evening of the battle Of Vau-
champ (the 14th) the duke of Ragusa MAR
noDt) caused the enemy to be attacked at
o'clock upon Etoges, took 9 pieces of can.
non and completed the destruction of the
Russian division. 1900 dead were counted
upon that single battle ground. The sue
cess obtained in the battle of Vauchamp
was much more considerable than was an !.
nUunced.
The evaporation of the country p 'ople
is at its height The atrocities committed
by the Cosaques surpasses all that can be
imagined OF them. In their ferocious intoxi-
cation they have committed violence on wo-
men OF sixty and girls Of IL /; they have ra.
vaged and destroyed the inhabitants the
Peasants breathe nothing but vengeance

The rapidity with which the amount of
donations for the wounded soidiery has i'm
creased within these few days, does honor
to the inhabitants of Paris. In most Of the
wards the zeal and humanity of individuals
have anticipated all invitation. Already
considerable sums Of money and all sorts of
necessaries, such as linen rags, mattresses
and coverings have been carried to the prin-
cipal places of deposit. il it is possible SO TO
express it. with charitable profusion.
This evening all Paris resounds with the
report of a victory achieved this morning by
his majesty over the Austrian army com,
manded by the Prince of Schwartzenburg.

that the Emperor has taken fourteen thou.
