fled with the scantiness of the details as yet
published in the Moniteur.
The Patrie says that Napoleon had an epau-
lette shot away. Gen. Dieu,is dead.
The Austrians had seven or eight generals
and very many officers killed. The Austrian
headquarters at the latest dates, were at Vero-

Some Of French infantry regiments were near
ly cut to pieces. The Piedmontese suffered
so severely as to be incapable of forming a line

elapse before complete returns of the losses of
the Austrians on the 14th could be received.

regiments have become very difficult to man
age. The men desert by scores and tifties. In

ing manifestation against the Jesuits, who pub
lie rumors accuse of keeping up secret cor
