A Full and True ACCOUNT OF A Great and Signal Victory Gained by the Imperialists over the Turks. Dated from Vienna the 8th of september.  Licenced and entered according to Order. 
ON the Sixth of this Month Count Castelli, General of Battalions, and Baron Smidberg, having been dispatched by Prince Lowis of Baden to the Emperor, brought the following Particulars of a great Victory gained over the Turks.  
That the Imperial Army, which he commands in Servia, came on the 21st of August to Konighfelt, notwithstanding the steepness and difficulty of the Mountains, which are interlaced with Moorasses, so as that they were become impassable by the continual Rains, with which its march had been extremely incommoded, from the time it had passed the Morava, for the going in pursuit of the Serasquier, who was retreating towards Nissa. That the same day he came in view of the Ottoman Army, which was drawn up in Battle-array upon Hills. That on the 22d the Serasquier retired towards Jagodina, behind the River Morava, which falls into the Danube, where he remained Encamped till the 26th, for the assembling all his numerous Forces, consisting of Sixty Thousand Men, according to the Report of Spies and Desertets. That the Prince had endeavoured to pass that River, so to attack the Turks: But the ill ways having hindered the expeditious bringing up of the Boats, and other necessary Materials for making a Bridge, he had made semblance of retreating, that so by this saint he might draw the Serasquier out of the advantageous Posts he possessed, and come to some great Action. After this, on the 29th of the same Month, being St. John's Day; which the Turks hold to be happy and fortunate to their Arms, that Prince being returned with the Imperial Army to the Neighbourhood of Potaschin, or Baraschin, caused his Army to be Marshaled in Battle-array, on the Banks of the Morava. The Night before, the Bridgemaster caused two Bridges to be laid over that River, with so much Diligence, that to Reward his Pains and Labours, that Prince had given him a Gratification of a Thousand Florins. Ten Thousand Turks that had passed that River over their own Bridges, with a design to Charge our Rear, were Encountered by one of our Detachments that was sent to view them; and after a slight Skirmish, it returned to join our Camp, with a Chiaux and four Tartars they had taken Prisoners, being not strong enough any longer to make head against them with advantage. The 10000 Turks seeing our Party retreat, pursued it into the very sight of our Camp, whence great Detachments of Cavalry and Dragoons, were made to drive them back; but while they were engaged, the Prince of Baden caused part of his Foot to pass to the other side of the Morava, with design to Attack the main Body of the Turks, since they expressed so much eagerness to Fight upon a belief, it was out of fear that our Army retired: we had no sooner three Battalions, and five Squadrons on the other side, but that the Oltomans came to Charge them most furiously with their Drawn-Sabres; but having met our 
* A Term in Fortification, signifying Posts Armed with Spikes.  Chevaux de Freeze, who stopped their Cavalry, the Imperialists killed a great number of them in this Action, and they were forced to fall back into the Defilees, where they stood our coming up: Then it was, that our Cavalry that had been Detatched against 10000 Turks, who would have Charged our Rear, repulsed them, and forced them to repass the Morava as fast as they could. Our whole Army being passed, the Turks reinforced themselves in the Defilees, they possessed before the Plain which they covered, and which had a Wood on one side, and Hills on the other. The Entrance into the Plain, into which the Defilees led, was interlaced with several Moorasses, which rendered the Access to it very difficult. The Prince of Baden caused the Regiments of Seraw and Kissel, who were in the Van of the Army, to drive the Enemies from their Defilees. There needed no more than to give our Men to understand that they must pursue the Ottomans, and not let the occasion, they had, slip of gaining a great Victory,, to set the Horse and Foot upon passing  those Moorasles in the Water up to the Middle, nay up to their very Shoulders, holding up their Arms and Weapons, to hinder them from being wet; and according as they passed, they form themselves into Squadrons and Battalions, until that at length, all being passed, and the Battle drawn up in Battle-array, our Troops marched directly upon the Enemy, who stood our coming up upon a Hill; and they attacked the Insidels with so much Courage and Fierceness, that they forced their Entrenchments, notwithstanding their Opposition; and after having killed a vast Number, forced them to betake themselves to Flight.  
By this Victory we remained Masters of the Turks Camp, of all their Baggage, Tents, Carriages, Ammunition and Provisions, as also of a hundred and five Pieces of Cannon, of several Mortar-pieces, of a vast number of Colours and Standards, of the Great Horses Tail (which is the Turks Great Standard), and abundance of other Riches, insomuch that the Soldiers rejoice in a World of Booty. They Attacked them with that vigour, that after a Fight of about 4 hours, there were 50000 Routed, 20000 killed, and 6000 taken Prisoners. Count Castelli and Baron Smidbergh, who brought the first Account, departed from the Camp immediately after this great Victory, which we hope to be able shortly to give a more individual Account of.  
Prince Lowis, after this happy Success, which cost not the Imperialists 1000 Men, continued his March towards Nissa, to destroy the Enemies great Megazines there.
