NIGHT OF JUNE 14th-15th, Friedrich, "between Zehren and Zabel," several miles down stream, his bridges now all ready, out of Lacy's cognizance, has suddenly crossed Elbe; and next afternoon pitches camp at Broschwitz, which is straight towards Lacy again.
AUGUST 1st, Friedrich crossed the Elbe at Zehren, in the Schieritz vicinity, as near Meissen as he could; but it had to be some six miles farther down, such the liabilities to Austrian disturbance. At Dallwitz we rest next day, wait for our Bakeries and Baggages; and SUNDAY, AUGUST 3d, at 2 in the morning, set forth on the forlornest adventure in the world.
He attempted to dispute the defile of Zehren with the vanguard; but, when he saw the cavalry in motion to turn him by Lommatsch, he fled to Meissen, where he crossed the Tripsche; but, in spite of the celerity of his march, his rear-guard was attacked, and lost four hundred men.
