division of Angereau ; he reminded our brothers in arms of their being the same men that had forced the bridge of Lodi . He seemed to perceive a sentiment of enthusiasm , and was determined to profit by it . He leaped off his horse" ; seized a standard , rushed forward at the head of the grenadiers , and ran to the head of the bridge , crying , ' Follow your General ! ' The column instantly moved en , and we were at the distance of 30 yards from the bridge , when the terrible fire of the enemy assailed the column , and ' made it fail back the very moment when the enemy were goiiig to take flight . It was at the same instant that Generals

Vignolle and Lasne were wounded , and that Muiron , Aid-de-camp to the Commander in . Chief , was killed . ' The Commander in Chief and his staff were overwhelmed : the Commander in Chief himself was thrown from his horse into a marsh , from whence , under the enemy ' s fire , he extricated himself with difficulty : he mounted again , the column rallied , and the eiieiny durst not come forth from their intrenchments . ' Night began , when General Guieux arrived courageously at the village of Areola , and finally carried it ; but he retired in the night , after having made

manv prisoners , ami carried oft' 4 pieces cf cannon . , ' The enemy had time to be aware . of our movement ; they had begun to send off all their baggage and magazines to Vicenza , and concentrated almost their whole force towards Ronco , to give battle ; and before day-break they occupied the village ' of Areola with considerable force . ' On the 26 th ( Nov . 16 th ) at dav-break , the enemy attacked us on a !! points : the column of General Massena , after an obstinate conflict , worsted the enemy , took 1500 prisoners ,. and carried off six pieces of cannon and four stands of colours . ' The column of General Angereau likewise repulsed the enemy , but could hot succeed in forcing the village of Areola , which w as attacked several times .

1 ou will judge of the obstinacy of the different- attacks upon this village , where seven Generals were wounded . ' The same evening the Commander in Chief himself marched to the canal on the right of the Adige , with a column who carried fascines , with a view of establishing a passage , which could not be done on account of the current ; then the Adjutant-General Vial , who was at the head of the column , forced the canal , up to his neck in . water , but he was obliged to repass it : it was at that moment tliiit EliottAidde ' to the Commander in Chief killed

, --camp , was . < The following night the Commander in Chief gave orders to throw a bridge over the canal , and a new attack was combined for the 27 th ( Nov . 17 th ) . The division of General Massena was to attack on the left of the causeway , and that cf General Angereau , for the third time , the celebrated village of Areola , while a third column was to cross the canal to turn that village . Part pf the garrison of Porto Legnagp , with fifty horses and four pieces of artillery , received orders to turn the enemy ' s left , for the purpose of operating a diversion .

' The attack began at day-break , the fight was obstinate , Massena ' s column met with less obstacles , but that of Angereau was again repulsed at Areola , and fell back in disorder to the bridge of Ronco , when the division of Massena , who had followed the movement , made a retrogade motion towards the division of Angereau , and disposed itself to join it for the purpose of making a fresh attack upon the enemy , who were by this time put to flight , and who , seeing themsaives turned by the left , were forced at Areola : then the rente sras complete ; they abandoned all their positions , and retreated to Vicenza in the night . ' On the 2 Sth ( Nov . iSt-h ) at day-break , part of the French army pursued the , enemy to Vicenza , took several barges laden with pontoons and stores , picked up some prisoners , and many wounded , and the others arrived tinder the walls of Verona .

During our success at Ronco , our left wing , commanded by General Vaubois , was forced in its positions at Rivoli , which place the enemy occupies at this very moment . The right wing of the Imperial army , commanded by General Davidovicli , will be attacked to-morrow by superior forces , and must entirely fali into our power ; or if it evacuates the place , it will be pursued to Tyrol . Thcza the army of Alvinzy , separated and half destroyed , must give us Mantua . ir > a few days . - VOL , vn . ' 3 I
