“ The general in cm f, Kaman

attack to be made or the fallowing

which Teemed impregnable, cn

of the Ruffian troops; that memo
rable day covered them wtch frt fh
laurels. As foon as the atrark be

tacked and carried three redoub s,
and rendered himfelf mrft r of the
whole entrenchment, whEl* cover

In this manner the enemy favy his

cannonade kept up on our part, he
c nrinued to defend himfelf in the
m ;ft obftinate manner. An at
tempt made agftrft his left flrd:
having proved unfuccefsful, the
general in chief, i 1 order to bring
the matter to a clofe, adopted the
meafures of ordering count Kamn
fkoy, general of infantry, to open a
heavy cannonade, and detach im
mediately after twelve battalions to
carry the entrenchment by aflf ulr,
while he on his fide detached m j >r
general Saban*j ff with ten battali
ons to take toe enemy’s camp in
the rear. This general foon after
entered the Tuik fh camp, and this
unexpeft.-d attack, extcu:ed with
the utm ft rapidity, decided the
vift r ry. A great part of the ene
my’s horfe took to fl ghf, and was
purfutd by our cavalry, who killed
agr at number of them. Tie
general in chief without the
