GRAND ARMY,:
FORTY-SIXTH BULLETIN.
" Colviyn, December 28.
" Marshal Ney, charged with executing
the manoeuvres by which he was to drive
the Prussian lieutenant general Leftocq from
Wreka, to outflank him ; and, by these
mean?, to cut off his communication with
the Russians has executed these movements
with his accustomed ability'and intrepdity.
On the 93d, general Marc'iaud's division
moved to Gutu/.tio. Ou the 24th', the ene-
my was pursued to Kuasbrook. On the
25th, the division came to an action, by
which the enemy's rear suffered some loss.
On the 26th, the enemy having collected at
Soldan and Miawa, marshal Ney was deter-
mined to advance and attack him. The
Prussians were in possession o'f Soldau with
6000 infantry, and about 1O0O cavalry, and,
being defended by morasses and other ob-
stacles about the place, they thought them-
selves secure against any attack. All those
difficulties, however, were surmounted by
the 49th and 78th regiments. The enemy
defended himself in all the streets of the
place, and was every were driven with fixed
bayonets. Gen. Leftocq, observing the small
number of troops that had attacked him,
wished to retake the place. In the course
of the night he made four successive attacks,
without effect. He afterwards retired to
Neidenburg. Six pieces of cannon, some
colors, and a great number of prisoners are
the effects of this affair at Soldau. Marshal
Ney praises general Von der Weldt, who
was . wounded. He also makes particular
mention of col. Brunn, of the C9th, whose
behavior was highly encouraging.
" On the same day, the 59th marched to
Lauterberg.
" During the action at .Soldau, gen. Mar-
chaud's division drove the enemy from
Miawa, where also a great action took
place.
" Marshal llessieres had already taken
possession of Diezun, with the second corps
of cavalry, on the 19th. The enemy feeling
the importance of this post, and observing
that the left wing of the French army wish,
ed to cut the PrussJaas off from the Russians,
made an attempt to retake ihe place; this
gave vise to the engagement at Biezuti.
"On the 23d, at 8 o'clock, the enemy
approached by yarious \ :r bridge. This road
will make an,easy communication between
this town and the country, and thereby, we
hope, considerably promote our country.

Remarkable Occurrences.
The tide, for several days last week, has
been considerably lower than ever before re-
collected. Saturday we counted 129 mm
wading for oysters on the New-York Oys-
tejr Banks, and the shore lined with carts to
receive them.
Common oak wood was selling on Satur-
day for five dollars a load, which is at the
rate of 20 dollars a cord ; and almost every

We learn from No a burgh, that on the
3d inst. the snow was three feet deep ; and
that the sleighing was excellent. The roads
were,crowded with loads of produce coming
to the different landings.
A few days since, 70 tons of streaked
bass were taken in one net, and at one haul,
near Stonington, tnos' of which were bro't
to our market, and sold very cheap. This
" miraculous draught of fishes" was vftlued
at 800O elollars ! The net was made and is
owned by a respectable company of fisher-
men, and is 300 fathoms in length, and six
deep. - ,

has been so great in the back part of this

stages at Lancaster, have requested the pro-
