The fine of hus sar* and cuiiasaiers of the enemy wrre put to flight. More than 300 Austrian cuirassiers were made prison-re. Night came on. Our cuirassier* continued the march to Ratisbon.

The division of St Sulpire char, prd another detachment, in which the Archduke < hades narrowly escaped being taken. He owed hifi safety oily to the swiftness of his horse.

The 1000 mi n of the 65th, nhich were made prisoners, have been part retaken. It is impossible to .shew more valor and more good will than is shewn by our troop*. At the battle of Kchmuhl, the corps of the duke of Itivoli, not having hern able to join this mar shal remained constantly near the emperor, and carried ihe order* for the execution of different man oeuvres.

The duke of Auerstad. has giv en in these different ass lira as new proof of theiidrcpidiiy which char. acteri»r him. The duke d* Rovign, with as much earnestness as intrepidity, traversed the enemy’s legions Ire. qucntly in order »o make known to | ihe different columns the inten , tionsof the emperor.
