.MYSTERY OK T11K RF.TRLAT.
London. Jan. IS. I a pears that (b n
eral Itnller had altogether five brigades
wholly or partly engaged in Cokes. Ilihly
ards, dlarts, Woodgates, and Littlytnn's
ltrigadcs. There wire two hundred and
seventy casnltics in l.ittlyton's Urigadc.
This is explained much of the mystery
that surrounds the n treat. It is possi
ble that (icneral Itnller has withdrawn
his whole force, but il is generally as
sullied that l.ittlyton's brigade and Jluu
donnald's artillery, with other troops, arc
still en the north side of the Tugcia liver.
The last heard from them was lhat tiny
occupied a position north of I icneral
