which at FIVE o'clock was evacuated by the
insurgents, who had taken up their position
near the city. As soon as the Generals
troops entered the city, intelligence was
brought that the insurgents desired to ca
pitulate. The grand ducal commissary was
about 10 repair to them, when they asserted
that they would negotiate with none but the
general in command.
Gen. Gagern accordingly rode to the
outposts, accompanied by few horsemen,
and eIhorted the rebels to obey the voice
Of the law, and to renounce the civil war
and not oppose the national development
by these subversive tendencies which the |
majority of the nation condemned. The
chivalrous warrior addressed few words of
peace and reconciliation to his misguided
countrymen, but they refused 10 follow his
prudent counses, and the generous propo.
fore compelled TO return. He remounted
his horse, and at the same moment he was
treacherously shot, and MORALLY wounded
by three balls two Of which entered his back
and the third passed through his head. Ex.
asperated at seeing their chief assasinated
in so cruel manner. the troops furiously
engaged in combat with the rebels who
were forced TO take flight, leaving a great
number of dead upon the field.
Strive and Weisshaer, who had taken a
position near Weisenthsl with troop of
1000 men, Suddenly fled; twenty Hessois
and fifteen Bados were wounded. A de.
serter of the I'd Regiment, and one of the
4th were killed. The rebels suffered con.
siderably; wagon filled with the dead had
entered Gandern; Which and another chief
were among the slain, and eigh, were made
prisoners.

run the frontier portions Of the Grand
Duchy. A letter from Shaffhausen states
that the republican, are stationed all
along the road between Eugen, Blomberg.
and Stuhlingen. The diligences between
Bale and Stockach are stopped, and that
between Shaffhausen and Arau was rifed
of 1000 forins. Messrs. Venedey and
Spatz, the two delegates sent by the Frank.
, fort committee Of fifty into Baden. have is.
sued a proclamation, al Lenskirch, to the
inhabitants of Baden. in which they state
: that all their attempts to bring the republi-
cans 10 terms of peace have failed, and they
therefore call on all well minded people
not to join in an enterprise which is dis
I turbing the internal peace of Germany. A

s inhabitants ofthat town were divided-one
tenth for the republic, and the other nine
