The Duke of Ragusa procceikti thither quickly, but the enemy had time to 'carry off 15 paces of cannon. A great part of pers3nntl saved. On the' same day General Charpentier, with his division of the young guard, carried the village of Clary. Oa the next day the enemy attacked this village, seven times, and were seven times re pulsed. General Charpentier lost 4th) risoners. Tice enemy left the avellnes covered with his dead. The Emperor's head-quarters were on the; 9th and 10th at Chavigeln.

The inhabitants have conducted themselves in the most houourv.bie manner. There are no praises too great for the regiment of the Vistula, vvhiell formed the garrison there arc no Arai es which the regiment of the Vistula deems too' great for pie inhabitants. His Majesty has granted this brave corps decorations of the Legion of Honour. The plan of the enemy's campaign appears to have been a kind of general h,oura, dash upon Paris. Neglecting all the strong places of Flanders, and only observing Bergen-op-Zoom and Antwerp with troops inferior by half in number to the garrisons of those towns, the enemy penetrated upon Avesnes. Neglecting the places of the Ardennes, Meziere, Roeroi, Philippeville, Givet, Charlemont, Mont mealy, Maestreont, Vanloo, and Juliers, they passed by impractica ble roads, to arrive upon A vesnes Reihel. Tlu•se places com municate. ;Ire not observed, and the gar; hems alarm the rear of the enemy considerably. Whilst General St. Priest burned Rheims, his brother was arrested by the inhabitants, and s; nt off prisoner to Chailemont. Neglecting all the places of the Meese, the enemy ad vanced by Bar and St. Dizier. The garrison of Verdun is come quite to St. Mikiel.

The troops of the garrison of Metz go as far as Spires. The de partments having hastened to complete the corps of bat talions are in all these places, where they are armed, equipped, and exer cised, we may say that there are several armies in the rear of the enemy. His position cannot but beeome mire dangerous daily.
