FOREIGN IN TELLIGENCE.
j
LONDON, Julv 2.
Lad night we received '.lie Paris papers to
the 29th ult. from which we have given at full
length Berthier's inierrfting account of the
Creat Battle at Maringo—and we have added
the lateft„BuUeiin ot the army of Italy, an
nouncing that the French have taken poflWlion
ot' the firft lift of furtrelTcs, and that Melas has
matched for Mantua. There is another Bulle
tin filled with the praise of Defaix, and very
severe animadvei lions on Lord Kekh for ill
treating him. The Bulletin also gives an ac
count of the Chift Consul's being present at
the performance of Te Deum for the deliver
a'tice of the Cisalpine Republic. By letters
from Suchet, his left was at Ormea und his
right at Borghetta, on the 6tlt of June, ai d he
had gained fevcral advantages. There is no
full account ot"the pafl'age of the Dannb? at
Dilleogen, but no doubt can be entertained of
the fait. The accounts ihew that the
Aaftrians were prcvioijfly preparing to aban
don Ulm. We have at last Lord Keith's let
ter", proving it was in confrquence of his refu
fal to fanftion the convention between Kleber
and the Turks that hostilities again broke out
in Egypt. Another negociation is said to be
on foot between the French and the Porte.
BATTLE of MARINGO.
Rt'fori to the Commander in Chief from
Alexander Bert bier.
To obtain pofTeflion of Milan, effect a junc
tion with diviiion of Gen. Moncey, cut off the
retreat of the enemy to Brescia, Orlinovi, Mar
cafia and Plaifance, to gain the immense ma
gazines ef the enemy, prevent their communi
cations, and secure their depots, their iiclcand
artillery, such were the orders ilTucd, whilfl
our army o&erved the motions of that oi the
enemy, harraflcd them on the Po, and effected
the panage of that river before Stradella. The
activity of our movements were preparatory to
the accoinpliflimetu of'thcfe objects; the ge
nius of Buonaparte profited by them.
Ti.e enemy, beaten at Montebollo, were
ftoccefiively reinforced by troops, under the
command of Generals Elfnitz and Bellegarde.
I was informed, that Melas had afl'embled all ;
his forces at Alexandria. It was important to !
prevent his ulterior movements. With thisj
vi«w every thing was arranged.
The enemy had the alternative either of ad-
Genoa and penetrating into
Tufcany on parting the Po and the Teiin, in
order to gain Mantua, or of forcing rTlcir way
by giving battle to our army : or, finally, ot '
/hutting themfeves up in Turin.
The divilions ot Chabran and Lapoype, re
ceived orders to guard the Po. The detach
ment left at "Yxrea observed the Oreo, the
corps of General Moncey, occupied Plaifance,
observed Bobbio, guarded the Tefin, the Sella,
and the Oglio, from the fourcc of that river to
the Po, and extended its observations toward*
Pefchiera and Mantua. The Italian legion oc
cupied Brescia, and the remainder of the ar
rty, 4 with Buonaparte at their head, marched
against the enemy
On the 24'.h of Prairial (June 13) at day
break, the army directed its march towards
Tortona and Caftel Nuovo di Scrivta. The
corps of General Vittor, which formes! the
advanced guard, palled the Scrivia at Dora.
That of General Lannes obtained pofTeflion of
Caflel Nuovo, where the enemy abandoned
15«o lick, among whom were 6co in a state of
recovery, and ready to resume aftive feryice
in rhe army. The corps unde> the orders of
General Deflaix took a poiition near Poute
Curonne. The fame day the army marched
towards San Joliano, which the advanced guard
of the enemy evacuated, for the purpose of
occupying a poliwon at Maringo. They were
attacked by ,tbe djvifion of Garuantx, fup
p»rted by the* 24th fight infantry, and forced to
retire to the bridge on the Borroida, after
having loft two pieces of cannon, and 180 pri
soners.
Thft fr*")' K* vc us bflrttl* HI tbe
pTain of San.Juliano and taaringo, where they
might have derived the utmott advantage from
their nimerous cavalry. We bad eveiy reason
to presume they would not 'have attacked fc us
after we had acquired a knowledge of the
ground and iheir ntoation, and that their ob
ject was either r«> pals the Po and the Tefin, or.
'advance against Genoa and Bobbio Measures
were taken to oppose them with fuifiiicnt force
on the road from A k llandria t« Genoa, and on
the left bank of the Po, the passage of wh:ch
it was supposed ihey would attempt at Cafal'
or at Valence. A division of the corps under
the comruand of General Deflaix advanced to
wards Rivalta by tuminj; Torienu. Flv.ing
bridges were eflabliflied on the heights of Cas
te» Nuovo, lij ordertexpcdiii ufly to pass the
Po, and by a movement in flank, united the
diviliqns on ihe left bank of that river. But
on the 25th (14th June) at 7 in the morning,
the divilions of Gardanne, which formed our
advanced guard, \fras attacked. The enemy,
by the dcvelopement of thrfr forces, m»nife*V
ed the objfcft of their plans. The troops under
the command of General Vi&or were imme
diately ranged in order of battle. One part of
it formed the centre, which occupied the vil
lage of Maringo ; another formed the left
wmg, which extends to the Bormida ; the
corps of General Lances constitutes the right
wing.
The army formed into two lines, and had
its wings supported by a formidable corps of
cavalry.
The enemy made fucceffivfe attacks, advanc
ing in three column*. Their right advanced
towards Rigoralo, by proceeding up the Bor
mkja ; their centre b\ the great road ; and
their left by Caftel-Ctfriclo.
Gen. Vi&or informed me that he was attack- i
ed by the whole of the (enemy's forces. I inime- !
«fiaiely marched the refcrve of the cava!ry,an<l I
the corps of Gen. Deflaix, from which I how

IheFirft Con Cut rushed wirh eagerness to
the field of battle. On arriving there we found
the aftioa general. Both fidesfdught with
equal fury. Gen. Gardanne sustained, for.kmo
hours, the attack of the ri£ht and the cent'rje ol
the enemy, without losing an inch of ground,
notwitnftandigg ihe inferiority of his artillery.
x The brigade undr r the command of General
Kellerman, composed of the 2(J and 20th regi
ments of Cavalry 3 and of the Bth of dragoons,
supported the-toft of General Victor. The
44th and the 101 it of the line bravely main
tained their formpr well-earned reputation.
Gen. Vi&or sent orders to the brigade of ca
valry of Gen. ; but that general
had quitted without authority the command
of his brigade ; this circumstance retarded the
execution ps four movements. Two hundred
men of that corps were commanded to proceed | courage o'f \kt\r enemies. The two armies

The left of the enemy advanced toward*
Caftel-Cerioli. Their centre always receiv
ing frefh reinforcements, attempted to gain
poffcflien of the village of Maringo, where
they took 400 prisoners, who were in one of
the houlcs.
Some ot our cannoneers who were ill want
of cartouches, abandoned the field ot battle
in d forder, and the enemy encouraged by
their success, charged with additional imuc
tuolity, General Lannes received them with
advantage. The line, exposed as it was, re
lified the artillery, and maintained the charge
of the cavalry. But he could not repel the
enemy without experiencing an attack from
the left. He sent the 40th demi-brigade to re
inforce the diviiion of ChamfierVac, who loft
ground. The enemy repeatedly repulsed in
their centre, returned ta the charge, and fi
nit lied by furroundiug the village of Maringo.
General Victor 01 dtied the relerve 10 make a
retrograde movement.
General Lannes then finding himfelf at
tacked b> foices ir.fiuueiy sup.nor, two lines
of infantry marched to his afliOance, with a
formidable artillery. The division of Watrin,
and the 28th, remained unshaken. On the
point of being turned by a conliderable corps,
they were supported by the brigade of dragoon
under the command of General Champeaux.
This change of position of General Vi&or
obliged General Lennes to follow the fame
mo ement.
The F.rft Consul, informed that the reserve
of Geneial Defaix was not yet ready, imme
diately haftcned in per lon to the divilion of
Lannes tp favour his retreat. In the mean
time the enemy advanced. He ordered the
7 2d demi-brigade to make different move
ments—He endeavoured to take the enemy in
flank, and charge at lh« head of that dtmi
origade ; but a general cry ifl'ued from the
ranks. ii We will not fuffer the Fi'Jt Consul to e.\-
poje himfef /" This exc lamat ion was i'oi low
ed by an interetting itrugg'e among the
troops, who unmindful of their own danger,
thought only of their chief. However they
| gained time.

The army arrived at the plain of Sin Juli

J General Defaix was formed into two lines,
flunked on the righi by twelve pieces o* ar- :

General Defaix at ihe head of thr hrave 9 r h
light darted with impetuofuy into
the midst of the enemy's battalliona, end char
ged them with the bayonet. The remainder
ot di\ lion followed this movement
on the right. The whole arm; advanced in
two lines with charging 11 ep. Tiie enemy,
■ ltonilhed, withdrew its artillery ; its infantry
began to fall back. General Defaix received
a mortal bull. The death of this brave officer
whose loss France will long lament in tears,
inflamed the heroes whom he commanded
with new ardour; they all, burning wirh re
venue, precipitated themselves with fury upon
the fiifl line of the enemy's infantry, which re
lilted, after having fallen back on the second
line. They both at once made a charge with
the bayonet. Our battalion fkipt for a mo
ment : but General Kellerman ordered a
charge of 800 cavaliers, who defeated the ene

are General Zagg, chief of the ftaff of the '
Auftiian army, Geneial St. Julien, and several
other generals, and almolt all the officers of
the tfaff.
The enemy had still a third 1 ne of infantry,
supported by the remainder of tjieir artillery,
and all their cavalry. General JLanties, with
the division of Watrin, the grtnidfCfS of the
Confulor guard, and the division of Boudet,
marched againfl this line, and were supported
ip their charge by the artillery under the com
mand of General Marmont. The cavalry, un- 1

horlr grenadiers', Commanded by the chief of
brigade, Bofllcrs, charged in their turn, ihe

with precipitation, and put them to rout. The j

This day cost the enemy twelve ftancl of co- |
