Expected Decisive Battle.

1T seems probable that the Ger
mans not only expected TO find that
the British army was beyond the
power of assuming the offensive for
some time, but counted on the French
having been driven back on to the
line of the Seine and that. though sur
prised TO find the latter moving for
ward against them, after they had
crossed the Marne, they were in no
wise deferred from making a great
effort
"on Saturday, the 18th. the enemy
were found TO be occupying a very
formidable position opposite ns on the
north Of the line at Soissons. They
had both sides of the river and an elt-
trenched line on the hills TO the north
of eight road bridges and two rail-
way bridges crossing the Aisne, with
In our section Of the front. Seven Of
the former and both of the latter had

patches OF thick wood.
Within the area which faced the
British before the advance commence
