vanced to Bergzabern, obliging the
French to abandon la Queich and Ger
jnerlheim.
The intention was to surprise the
French polled at Kaiferflautern under
the cortirrrand of General Aubert ; and
this attempt would have been crowned
with success, had it not been for several
insurmountable obstacles: it was alto
intended to cut off the communication
t)f the French army of the Rhine with
that of the Mozelle, to pre\ent rein
forcements being constantly sent to the
North. The meafiires taken by the
enemy, their various movements and
dilpohtious, were so many proofs that
* their plan of defence was dire&ed by
a Wilful General. Notwithflanding the
emiibiped krtnies were not f<* iuccefafui
as might have been withed, ltiil it is
certa that one of the enemy's corps
was entirely routed, with the loss of
arms and baggage. The enemy on
that'occafion Jolt two colonels, a major,
5 captains, 54 subalterns, 29 ammuni
tion waggons laden with provisions, 6
forges, 5 pair of colours, 350 horses,
&c.

The French, perceiving their firfl 1
line of defence broken by the victory
over them by General Moelleudorf, j
have evacuated their second line, which
covered Spierbach, and letreated to the I
other lide of Quiech. The apprehen- ]
Con that the Prince of Conde would,
by eroding the Rhine, attack them in
the rear, was the caule of their hastily
abandoning their positions in the vici
nity of Spire. The prince has twice f
attempted the pafTage acrofi the river, ,
but without success.
On the evening of the 2Jth the An- ;|
ftrian army encamped near Spire, and
the following morning ihiftcd their en- '
i-ampment to a league's diltance on the
other fide of that city, ac the fame
time that the Prussians moved forwards.
It is now certain that the latter have
reached the defiles of Aaweiler, one of "
their columns having approached with- 1
in about three leagues of Tonn and
Buntenthal. 11
It would appear by these several
movements, that the communication ,n
between the French armies of the Rhine c ®
and Mozelle is cut off, after their
ing been much weakened by the de-j u?
