London. . . Jan. 10. The French forces that escaped to
Egra, are marched in two columns towards the Danuba. They
lost in their march from Prague, 400 killed, 1000 taken
prisoners, 395 died of fatigue, and 256 were left in the
roads. About 36 carriages, 6 colours, 5 standards, 4 pair
of kettle-drums, and some field-pieces were likewise taken;
and in his hurry Marshall Belleisle lost his cabinet, and
all his bills of exchange, to the value of 50,000 florins at
least.
