l ' Extra£l of a letter from Wetzlar, June 17.
Herewith you will receive some details of the
battles fought, on the 14th, 15th and 16th, near
our city, and at Altemberg.
On the 14th there wete only (kirmifhes, withbut
ed 3 ny formal attack; yet the French were repulsed
ed from Wehrdorf, Betghaufen. Dillheim and Ketz
iy enfont ; all those places fuffered greatly by their
u- retreat.
of On the 15th, affairs be)?an to wear a more serious
In- afpedt. The French !#jrmed of the reinforce
th ments, arrived for the Imperialists on the Lahri and
be Dill,' intended to force the centre of the Jmpbria j
lifts, which expedition Gen. Le Fehvrc undertook,
with 2j,000 men. He is the fame who comman
ded the expedition of laftyaar in this quarter, «nd
is perfectly acquainted with the country. On th<-
15thin the foienoon, he attacked v the Imperialists
lr . at Berghaufen, Wehrdorf, and pushed his forces
■ t> forwards through the woods near those places.' The
3e Austrian Grenadiers, the regiment of Hufiars,
be Veczay, and the Saxos Chaffeuis, just arrived, at,
y. tacked thr enemy ; but the French annoyed these
[- ttajopa by tnad<cd baHcriej crcfted
from Leon to Altenftetten, firing grape shot, where
by the Saxon Cbafleurs fuffered fcverely. t icld
Ma rtial, Lieutenant de Werheck advanced with
v ' e the remainder of his troops, polled behind our ci
ty '.he cannonade betame frightful, the Imperi
'alifts on fevcral points were obliged to give way, the
of rain and weather not being in their favour. We
lived in anxiety, and a retreat appealed to be una
Voidable ; so matters at 7 in the evening,
,n when unexpectedly and like a saviour from Heaven,
atrired the Archduke CharleSj and hattened i'ft full
gallop to the field of battle. During the most terri
er ble fire *of (hot, he rode through the ranks
Is and encouraged the troops, by affming them that
reinforcements weie drawing near. The Imperia
ls liiti now persevered with unexampled bravery. A
few "moments past Imperial troops arrived from
WeiJn-'Uenfter and Nucmheim, filing off to Konigf
berg. At the fame time the brave Saxon ttoops
marched by Rechtenbach to the field of battle, and
te more cannon airived, which the Imperialists ftood-ia
ln need of. Now they attempted to-decoy the enemy
?• fym. his woods : in vain. Then the lmpeii
m al'ft* ercAtd two batteries in opposition, and com
-10 menced a violent canonade. The Imperial and Sax
°f on cavalry turned the woods, the infantry charged
the batteries with bayonets and stormed the gaval
ry ranged in the woods, when the French were
obliged to retiie; and by jo at night vhftory
: decided ,for the Auftrians. On both fides many
ie were killed and wou-vded. The grape (hot did
18 great execution among the Imperialists. The Sax
| ons performed prodigies of valor, to them the
T j victory is principilly owing. Many prisoners are
not brQßght in yet, amongst them is a colonel of ca.
lr valry wounded. Twelve cannon jvere taken. A
'1 lieutenant of the Saxon chaffenrs, the -firft who
c 1 penetrated in the woods, was taken prisoner, and
was found afterwards with his throat cut.
Yesterday the t6th the attack wae renewed and
the French driven from Leun, Stockhoufe, and
e Wcilbourgh. The huflais of Blankenftein crossed j
the' Lahn near Overbuehl, made many prisoners,'
i ana took a cannon.
General Lefebvre had his hand cut off by a Sax- ]
on horseman, and his brother was killed by the
mufquetry. j
The prisoners from Jourdan's assure us, that 3
f thev were protnifed to plunder Frankfort, if they |
e could penetratv' to place. This at firft oc
calioned great alarm amongst the inhabitants. Thus ]
V/e:zlar, Franckfort and their environs were-faved.
3 It was necessary to hasten the arrival of 9,000
Saxons, by an express ; the Archduke led them c
himfelf to the battle.
! From Dillcnburg the brought in yefter
j day a French commissary and seven upon
j whom they found 2Cp louis d'ors.
This-day the whole Imperial army passes the c
. Lahn in pursuit o'f the enemy, the loss of which
is said to be 3000 men.
