Those who could not get out at the gates called the Morissthor and Shifferthor, were killed, wounded, or taken prisoners. It almost exceeds belief with what bravery, activity, and deter mination the Prussians began, continued, and ended the battle. It was difficult for military heroism to rise higher : every one en n i hated and encouraged the other. Only eye-witnesses of the battle, as we were, can form a proper idea of it. Great numbers fell in this battle. The loss of the enemy in killed, wounded, and prisoners, is very great. The French were pursued several leagues. HAMBU Vett, MAY 11.—Monday morning the French made another artealpt, a•'ter having drawn their troops from Stade to their assistance, and succeeded in penetrating as fur as Oschenwarder and Kirchwar 'ler, which greatly annoyed us. Yesterday afternoon, at five o'clock, the alarm bell was sounded, and every one was immediately Tinder arms. Our Burghers marched through the city. General Tertenborn removed his headquarters to tho last Heller. The Danes likewise assisted us, and approached nearer the city; and the gallant English that are here, succeeded, in conjunction with the Danes, iii repulsing the French. Those of them which are at ()schen. warder must either surrender or be put to the sword, and it is expected that they have laid down their arms. Tranquility is for the present restored, mid God grant that we may not receive such another visit from them.

BERLIN, MAY 8.--On the 6th instant, at two in the aftentomi. preparations were made in ali the quarters of this city tar the crp nization of the leb)-in-mas*. Ail the inhabitants, Irons 15 to 60 years of age, without any distinction of rank, condition, or country, were summoned, and assembled willingly and cheerfully to have their names entered on die different !ists by the Commissaries of th, l districts to which they belonged. Though the enemy has been de• feu ed, still it is right fur us to muster and exercise ourselves; and it would be folly to suppo3e from this proclamation that the enemy has not been beaten. Intelligent people have smiled at such expres sion , which have heel' dropped at the corners of streets, and have gone unmoved to the places of rendezvous, observing to themselves, MAY 15. 321 that he can be no man of honour, who, when necessity calls, does • not take up arms, and endeavour to follow the example set him by • time brave Prussians and heroic Russians, on the clay of the It is estimated, that the levy-in-Judas for the city of Berlin will produce 40,000 men. PRUSSIAN ACCOUNT OF THE BATTLE OF LUMEN', &c. " BERLIN, MAY B.—The Military Government here yesterday published the following concise report by attxinent of papers, con cerning the engagements which hive taken place between the main armies of the Allies and the French " PEGAU, SAXONY, MAY 3.—Yesterday morning the two hostile main armies met between Pegau and Lutzen, the Russians and Prussians being under the chief cowman& of General Wittgenstein, and the enemy's army tinder the Emperor Napoleon in person. One of the mast dreadful cannonades known in latter annals or war- . like operations took place. It continued from eleven o'clock until ten o'clock in the evening, when night alone put an end to it.— During this cannonade the fire of musketry was nearly uninterrupt edly kept up, and frequently the valour ot'the allied troops proved itself in attack with the bayonet. Seldom or ever was there a battle fought with such animosity, or so murderons. The French derived great advantage from their position on the heights near Lit tzen, where they had thrown up strong entrenchments, which they defended with a heavy fire of artillery. But the valour of the allied troops drove them back from one position to another, nor where they even to be deterred when the superior defence of the enemy in his last positions rendered frequent attacks necessary. The result of this warm day was, that the Russian and Prussian troops kept possession of the fi eld of battle during the whole night, and caused the enemy a double or treble greater loss Bile) their own. As yet there has not been brought in but little more than 1000 prisoners, with ten pieces of artillery, and likewise 23 powder waggons, which General Von Winzingerode took from the enemy early this morning, the animosity during the fight being too great to give much quarter. But the great consequence is, that the French have now been con. vinced by the Russian and Prussian troops what may be performed by valour when inflamed by noble enthusiasm in so great, just, and sacred a cause as ours, and of what they may have to expect in future when all the armed force collecting for this war will be as sembled. It certainly is likewise very true, that the loss of the Russian and Prussian troops is very great, nor shall we overrate it it we for the moment estimate it at from 8000 to 10,000 men in • killed and wounded, but most of' the latter only very slightly. It gives us much pain to be obliged to mention Major the Prince of Hesse Homburg among the dead, anti General Blucher ;.s being wounded (he, however, only left the field half an hour); Gene. all Von Scharnhorst and Hunerbein, whose wounds are wily ; as ! likewise the Russian Generals Von Karlwinzen and Alt xi(f. But besides these an unusally greater proportion of officers, sod also of the younger sons •of our native Prussia, are among the number of killed and wounded. The noble ardour with which these voamteers met death in the just cause, insures them of being immortalized in the remembrance of their friends and their native country. kven this morning the enemy attempted to make some attack on the allied troops, but was soon repulsed by some cannonading. To atford the latier some rest and refreshment, after their reat fatigue they will be taken into the positions of Borna and Rochlita, front whence it is expected they will immediately break up to eminence fresh opera tions.—By what we can learn from the prisoners, Marshal Ney and General Sunham are among the killed on the enemy's side, and General Bessieres is wounded.—According to accounts befoie ua, nothing material took place on the 4th or sth. The Elbe, above Magdeburg, was not threatened. We still wait the official state ' went of particulars concerning the motions of the several corps, and of their marches and zottnternsarclies.
