BRUSSELS, June 2C.--It seems GER
tain that in the course of yesterday, the Prus~
sian van guard came in contact with the
Russian corps of which we have spoken,
and that these corps united are now on French
ground. The number Of prisoners taken by
the Prussian army confounds the magina-
tion--it is made to, amount to 65 900. The
dreadful disorganization of the French army
gives degree of probability TO the report
Whole battalions Of the confederates of
Burgundy and Franche Comte threw down
their arms.
We have not yet paid the just tribute of
praise to the Pr1ssiaT troops, for want OF de-
tails but the courage and talents of Prince
Butcher, which have been so often signalizcd
shone with increased lustre OH these bloody
days. The GOODNESS, the htrepidity and the
bold prompttude OF Gen. Bulow, eminently
contributed to the success of the day of the
18Th.

The surrender Of Maubeuge seems certain.
1t is now affirmed, that Louis XVIII, leaves
Client to-day, to go and fix there the seat of
his provisional government.
The Queen arrived here Yesterday even
ing. She visited this morning the Prince Row
al, her son, whose name will one day be quo
ted with PRIDE ~ the history OF our Country
The wound OF the young hero is not so
slight as was thought however there IS no
danger.
A division o. 5000 French troops, which
had remained near Wavre, lett II the day
before yesterday at five A. NJ. to tire to effect
its junction by throwing Itself into the woods
OF Limeiette and Ottlguies, being pursued
without ceaSing by the Prussian troops. Sc
vcrdl bloody actions took place, in which the
enemy had 5000 killed, wounded, and prison.
ers The remaining 500 saved themselves by
lnng the Mouse, which they crossed be-
tween Namur and Onant. Such is the result
OF one OF the most complete Cyerthrows that
history mentions.
