Extract of a letter from an adjutant of the Army of the Rhine, to the prefect of the department of ****
Head-quarters, 23d June.
The skilful and bold movements of the general in chief have determined general Kray to abandon Ulm to a small garrison.
General Moreau has left the division Richepanse before that place.
Yesterday we again drove away the enemy, who is retreating, after vigorously defending himself in a narrow pass. This circumstance did not, however, prevent his being cut off, and rendering his situation worse than ever.
In consequence, he has sent us this morning a parley, to announce that the First Consul had concluded an armistice in Italy, and that it must be general; but as the general in chief has not been officially informed of it, that will not stop him.
He will continue to beat the enemy; it is the surest way to have peace.
