ORDER ov THE DAY TO THE FRENCH IMPERIAL
GUARD
Marshal Regnault de ST. Jean d'Angely ad-
dressed the following order of the day to the
imperial Guard on the day after the battle of
Soiterino:
You have taken glorious part in the late
! battle. The division OF General Canon. had
his first brigade engaged from nine in the
morning. The battalion of Foot Chasseurs
and the first and second regiments of voit-
geurs, under General Maneque carried formi-
dable and vigorously defended positions
Numerous prisoners, thirteen pieces of cannon
and a color are the trophies Of this brilliant
combat. Tho artillery of the Guard. supported
by the division of Grenadiers, rendered the
most important services full OF ardor and en-
| thusiasm, they took up position on heights
| that were almost inaccessible, silenced the
! enemy's fire. and hastened their retreat. At
! Magenta, on the 9Th, the division of General
MellInet took possession of Pontr Nuoyo under
murderous fire. and defended with the great
est energy position which w9sS attacked by
very superior forces. The Grenadiers and the
Ioutyes drove back the enemyss columns at
the point of the bayonet, and forced them to
retreat with enormous loss. The Toltiguers
and the Chasseurs of the Guard have shown
mat they were worthy comrades of the Grcna-
ders and the Zouaves of Magenta. The mar
shal conmanding-m-chi cannot have more
valuable recompense than TO be kept at the
head OF such troops when the Emperor raised
him TO the dignity of Marshal of France Sol
diers of the Guard. The army appreciates
your conduct; it has what YOU are able
TO do on the field of battle and it is as proud
OF the Imperial Guard the Grand Army
was OF the Old Guard. "Vive lEmpereur."

29th OF June, says that the proposition pre-
sented to the Diet OF Frankfort BY the Pru.-
sian representatives, to send a corps of obser-

mand of 4 Prince of Bavaria. will consist of
