The New Hampshire Gazette

By Capt. Coes, who arrived at Boston last week from Lisbon, we have the following advices, viz.

From the London Gazette:

From Prince Ferdinand's head-quarters at Sachsenhausen, July 18.

Advices having been received by Prince Ferdinand, that a body of the enemy, consisting of some battalions and light troops, were advanced on the left of our army towards Ziegenhayn, his Serene Highness detached the Hereditary Prince on the 14th instant with six battalions, two of Hanoverian and four of Hessian, Elliott's regiment (which was just arrived), Luckner's hussars, and two brigades of chasseurs, to oppose that corps. On the 16th the Hereditary Prince engaged them near the village of Erxdorff.

The action was very warm for some time, but in the end the enemy was entirely defeated. Two battalions of Royal Bavière, three of Anhalt, together with the commander in chief Major General Glaubitz, and the prince of Anhalt Cöthen, were made prisoners of war.

Six pieces of their cannon were taken, and all their arms, baggage, &c. Elliott's regiment signalized themselves greatly upon this occasion. The main army of the French under Marshal Broglio still remains encamped upon the heights of Corbach.
In the action which the Hereditary Prince had with Gen. de Glaubitz, near Erxdorff, on the 16th, where Elliott's cavalry behaved so well, the allies lost but 85 killed, 95 wounded, among which was Col. Freytag, and 6 missing; 121 horses killed and 60 wounded.

They took from the enemy all their baggage, artillery and tents: among the prisoners are the Gen. de Glaubitz himself, and the Prince of Anhalt, two Counts were killed, one of them the natural son to Emperor Charles VII. The trophies are 9 pair of colours (almost all of which was owing to the intrepidity of Elliott's regiment, which did wonders) 5 pieces of artillery, and 1 howitzer. The prisoners amount to 177 officers, and 2482 privates.
It is said, that M. Broglio sent a Message to Prince Ferdinand, complaining that Eliot's Regiment refused to give Quarter when it was asked; and that the Prince replied, that that Regiment being lately raised, was unacquainted with the Laws of Arms, but that they would soon know better; and that he would give proper Orders to prevent Such Behaviour for the future. They are the finest Corps in England as ever was known.
