SEPT. 26. TH Konkt•-tein, and by those in the camp at Liebmtein, which amount at knit to 6,000 men, under Gen. Bonnet. :Wier a very sharp ac tion, Count Witgenstein Orove the enemy from all points, took three or four hundreff prisoners, besides a vast number of killed and wounded. The loss of the Allies was not severe. The enemy after this action retired into Konigsteim, his entrenched camp at Liebfnstein, and also into the various works he has thro‘r n up round Dresden. The Allies have pressed forward on him on every side, the Grand Armies are now encircling Dresden. On the gall, tqe hussar relziment of Grodlo, of Count Wittgen stein's corps, had a very biisk enZagement, close to Dresden, in which they took four guns and one howitzer. The advanced guards of the kusiarig, Prussians, and Austrians, encamped this night on the heights above Dresden, between Nanslitz and lschernitz. (hi the :7th in the morning, the- enemy abandoaed the gi aunt! in a :vaace of Dresden which tl:ey nectli called the Grossen G nun. and nithilrew into the sitbwrbi :Ind their different works. I have thus given . yviir Lordship a general outline of operations up to this period ; every hour is big with events. No official re ports are made out, so I fear my details in many points may be im perfect. Perhaps the history of war floes not afford a period where two great armies stand committed to such bold operations. I have much pleasure in .'rportiitg to your Lordship, that two Westphalian regiments of Hussars, commanded by Col. Hanmerstein have come over from the enemy, and are most eager to br ranged in battle ag ainst them, to take their revenge for the misery they have entailed upon this country.
