Tue war mas now commenced in earnest. On
the 10Th ut, the two armies met, and after some
sklrmishlng, regular engagement ensued, in
winch the Danes were victorious. The battle be-
gan at dawn of day, and lasted eleven hours. The
Danes attacked with about IS 900 men, and the in
suFrectlonary army was about 5000 strong. The
centre of the Schleswig Hosteiners, under General
Willesen, occupied the village of Adstedt, a little
distance North of the town of Schleswig. The
Danes attacked both wings of their enemies, and
after a combat which continued for eight hours
they brought all their dsposable strength against
the centre of Willesen's troops, and at length
forced him to return through Schleswig, towards
Rendsburg; but the defeat is most signal, and the
result must be highly important to the Danes. BY
dates from Hamburg of the 9th we learn that the
killed, wounded and missing, in the battle of Ad-
sedt, are now stated at 7O0O-of which the greater
share has fallen on the Danes. The number en-
gagged in the action is estimated at 40 600 Danes,
