DANTZIC, SEPTEMBER 4, 1813. The action on the29th of August, near Dontzic, was only the prelude to one still more important at Langefuhr and New Scotland, on the 2d September. Duke Alex Alexander ander Alexander of Wirtem berg, who was determined to harass the garrison of Dantzic and Gen. Rapp by incessaut attacks, and in particular to punish the latter for his gasconades, resolved not only to take the corps of troops in Langefuhr, but also to gain possession of the posts of Schellemuhl and New Scotland, and to drive the enemy out of them.—To accomp ish this object the attack was fixed for the 2d, and the hour of fiveju the afternoon, when Gen. Rapp is ac accustomed customed accustomed to indulge in the pleasures of. the table, was chosen for the purpose. The attack took place in four columns, and dispositions were made with a view that not only Langefuhrand he important worksand block-houses there might be turned all at once, but that the enemy .might be repulsed at all points at once, and not be able to maintain his ground any where. , The success answered, and indeed surpassed all expecta expectation. tion. expectation. Not only Langefuhr, New Scotland, and Schclle Schcllemuhl, muhl, Schcllemuhl, as also the enemy’s fortifications there, with all the troops, were completely surprised and taken, but all the columns sent to their succour w ere totally destroyed, so that the field of battle was covered with dead.—This sur. prise was so complete, that at Langefuhr many Officers were made prisoners at the coffee-table, or while taking their afternoon’s nap.—As to Gen. Rapp, who was com. fortably seated at dinner at the Commencement of the at attack, tack, attack, he immediately jumped up, when he heard the first discharge of artillery, and ran into the street with the nap. k’Wjg his hand, calling for his horse, but arrived oil thf field (ST battle only just in time to witness the discomfiture of his troops, and to see the farm of Schellemuhl, belong, ing to his chere antH, enveloped in flames. The two block-houses at Langefuhr were the only once that made an obstiqate defence; but they were taken by the brave combined troops, the one in the night, and the larger in themorning.-This action, so extremely disastrous for the garrison of Dantzic, has had a powerful influence on the sentiments of those troops, and is an infallible sign of the spirit which animates the blockading corps. In this attack there was not the least check, nor the smallest degree of confusion, though the ground there is much broken. The troops in Dantzic are now very nearly annihilated. Upon the whole, this day cost the enemy 1800 men, in killed, wounded, and prisoners. Since the renewal of hos hostilities, tilities, hostilities, the French have indisputably lost upwards of 3,500 men, for not a night passes but the garrison of Dantzic is alarmed by the combined troops, so that it is obliged to be continually under arms, . some loss. Gen. Rapp has formed eight battalions on ’ men, and given them the appellation of “Bat ' ftoi de Rome.” Our loss in this important aflajr at most to 100 men.—The tempestuous weather hg to prevented the flotilla off Dantzic from attend * thing of consequence against the enemy. As wtin as requisite artillery-men and sappers have arrived befur® Dantzic,. the siege will commence without delay. “The Emperor Napoleon, in person, on the !7?hSept. attacked the post of Nolleridorf, in the narrow passes Bohemia; but was repulsed by the Austrian corps of G s . nerals Colloredo and Meerfeld, with the loss of sevoi non, one standard, 4000 prisoners, and the Gen. of |J r ;' gade Krenzer, who was taken. The united army of North of Germany has taken more than 28,000 prisoners since the truce ended.—From the 17th August to the Igii Sept, there have passed through Berlin, as prisoners of war, 18,257 soldiers and 299 Officers, and upwards of 2000 men were on the road to tha* city ; from 2 to have remained behind sick, in the hospitals of Juterbod, Truenbetzen, Beizey, and Brandenburg; and the corp 2 d’armee of Count Walmoden, which sends its prisonershll Stralsund, has more than 4000 of them. If we add totl«R number that of tne killed, wounded, and missing, we majK reckon the total loss of the army opposed to that of tbeK army of the North of Germany, at not less than 45,0i()8 men since the 17th of August. The prisoners taken bjß the army under Gen. Biuchcr, and the grand army dK Bohemia, amount to 10,000. —We may, therefore, with.l out exaggeration, estimate the enemy’s loss, since the rr.B commencement of hostilities, at more than 100,000 wciK and 250 pieces of cannon. GENERAL ORDERS. 11. Q. Montreal, 27th Oct. 1813. | His Excellency the Govrnior General and Commander | of the Forces, having transmitted to His Majesty’s Govern. ment, a letter from Major-Gen. Dearborn, stating thg the American Commissary of Prisoners in London M made it know n to his Government, that 23 Soldiers of the Ist, 6th, and 13th regiment of United Stales’ Infantry, made prisoners had been sent to England and held in cluse confinement as British Subjects, and that Major-General Dearborn had received instructions from his Government, to put into close confinement 23 British Soldiers to be kept as hostages for the safe kcej ing and restoration in etchaup nf the soldiers, of the United States, w ho had been sentM above stated to England ; —in obedience to which instrsc. tions he had put 23 British soldiers into close to he kept as hostages; and the persons referred to in Major-Gen. Dearborn's letter, being soldUHs serving it the American army, taken prisoners at Queens-town, who had declared themselves to be British born subjects, and were held in custody in England there to undergo a legal trial. His Excellency the Commander of the Forces has rr rrcieved cieved rrcieved the commands ol Ilia Royal Highness the Prince Regent, through the R And His Excellency is farther instructed to notify to Major-Gen. Dearborn that the Commanders of His Ma Majesty’s jesty’s Majesty’s Armies, and Fleets on the Coast of America, have received instructions to prosecute the war with unmitigated severity against all Cities, Towns, and Villages, belonging to the United States, and against the Inhabitants thereof, if after this communication shall have been duly made to Major-Gen. Dearborn, and a reasonable time given for its being transmitted to the American Government, that Government shall unhappily not be deterred from putting to death any of the soldiers who now are, or who may hereafter be kept as hostages for the purposes stated in the letter from Major-Gen. Dchrborn. His Excellency the Commander of the Forces, in an. npuncing to the Troops the commands of His Royal High Highness ness Highness the Prince Regent, is confident that they will feel sensible of the paternal solicitude which his Royal High Highness ness Highness has evinced for the protection of the persons and ho- ( nor of the British Soldiers, thus outraged, in contempt of justice, humanity, and the Law of Nations, in the persons of 23 Soldiers placed in close confinement, as hostages for an equal number of Traitors,, who have been guilty of the base and unnatural crimes of raising their parricidal arms against that Country which gave them birth, and who had been delivered over for legal trial, to the just Laws of their offended Country. The British Soldiers this unprincipled-outrage, added to the gallbw instMT and cruel barbarities that are daily wantonly on many of bis unfortunate com-
