Tortona ; the enemy are retiring entire-

ly behind the Po ana the Tefin, for thepurpose of collecting til's rruiJ of theiinoopsi They have burnt all the bridg-

es upon these two rivers, in order to fs

us is We wish to cross them, beingin want both of pontoons and, boatmen ;

but the inventive genius of our gen. v ill

fnnnlv rinr-- wants. We recollect that atthe lafl paflage of the Rhine, he was in j

day with Macdonald, with whom lie has

made a junction, victor s aivmon occu-

pies Placenza, and ftretdies its lest toMoreau, and its right to Macdonald. Itis this divifioii which operated that junc-

tion. Our army including Macdonald's,is about 50,000 strong. The Aufui.ins'and Ruffians oppose to us a force of 70,000men. You see that we still want 20 or25,000 men to be able to ftrsfcc a greatft.-ok- e ; the lest wirig of the army is ap-

proaching Mantua. Is we are able toraise the blockade of that place, we hall

draw a supply from the garrifen of dooo

men, which will be of great use to us.

Once again, then, why do not the fuc-coa- rs

pron.ifed to Moreau arrive?"

LxttitCl of a second lettcv from the Head-Quarte-rs

of the army of Italy."Tortona, June 22.

" The day before yesterday(at dy break

the division of gen. Grouchy attacked tkjenemy, who were 15,000 strong. Thea 'Tair was a warm one and very Llocdy.Until ck.en o'clock the victory wadoubtful, but the gen. in chief ha-i- ng ad-

vanced at the head of 6000 menThe pour-

ed upon the enemy, made a tremendovicarnage, and put him completely to therout. Gen. Moreau, and hisDetelle, had each a horse killed underthem. The general's horse had his headcarried off, and lie himfc'lf sell to theground and was bruifedi That, howe-

ver did not prevent him from leaping up-- .on another, and continuing the battle un-

til night."I cannot depict to you the obflinacy

and valor with which our little armysought. "We made in this affair 3000prilbners, and killed between 15 and 1600

men, took five pieces of cannon, and allthe baggage. Our loss in killed and woun-

ded does not exceed 500 men. The fieldof battle.was the same as in the affair of

the 27th (15th June) before Alexandria,where we were not so fortunate, a9 I in-

formed you but w"e have just taken a

complete revenge"The attack began at St Juliano,

which was carried, and. which forced theenemy to fall back to Alexandria, andthere we drove them into the Eormiua.I believe we are now matters of Alexan-dria. The commandant of the blockadeof Tortoria was made prisoner in this af-

fair. This viclory will be a1 grand diver-fio-

and will cert unly force Suwarrow,who is gone with 30,000 men to give bat-

tle to Macdonald, to measure back hisHeps to defend the Po. Mortau'3 army-i-

"Tortdna, June 21."Citizen Minister,

" The army ha ing marched from Ge-

noa the i7th,anived here, andraifedtheblockade of Tortona, without experien-cing any obftaclts ; but ) efterday the di-

vsfion, of gen. Grouchy having adancedto St. Juliano, between the Scirria andBormida, was" attacked by a corps of

10,000 men, under" the command gen.Bellcgarde, aflifted by gert. Selkendorff.Gen. Grcniers division immediately ad-

vanced to St. Juliano, in order to supportgen. Grouchy, and it was accompaniedbv gen. Moreau in person. The enemywere successfully repulsed from St. Juli-ano, Caffina, Grande and Spiletta, as faras Bormida. His corps de reserve, whichhad proceeded to Bofco, was in a. greatpai t surrounded, and ' affered confiderablclost, in killed and prifonera.

"The enemy lost 4000 men in the ac-

tion, 2000 of whom were mane prisoners,ncl the remainder were killed or woun-dd- d.

We have taken five pieces of can-

non. Gen. Moreau had a horse killedunder liiri in the engagement, which wasvery obstinate.' All the troops conduct-ed themselves with an intrepidity whichis above all praise.
