From an account written by a clergyman, o what be witnessed just sifter the battle of Snlden, we quote a pretty : fair speciaiea of what wat is : ' At one o'clock," says he," "the cannon ading ceased, and I went out ou foot to Sol den, in order taleara to whose advantage the battle had turned - out. Towards evening, seven hundred of the Russian fugiiives came to-SoIden, a pitiful sight.judeed some hold ing nip their hands, cursing and swearing olhers praying, praising the king of Prussia w ithout bats," without clothes some on foot, others two on a horse, with their head and arms tied up some . dragging along by the stirrups and others by the horsr-' (ails. " When the battle was decided, and victory was shouted for the Prussian army, I ventured to the place where the cannonading was. Af ter walking some way, a Cossack's horse came running full speed towards me. I mounted him,' and on my way for'seven mile and a half on this sideMhe field of battle I found the dead and wounded lying on the ground, sadly cut to pieces. .The farther I advanced, the more these poor creatures lay heaped . upon one another". ' The -'"ecbne I" never shall fo'get. The Cossack?, as. toon a they saw pte, cried out, - dear sir, water ! water ! water !' Righteous God, what a sight ! Men, women and "chil dren,.

DEATH OF THOS. CAMPBELL, Esq. AUTHOR OF tHE rLEASUHE GFHOPfi."" "'-It is with sincere regret-we announce'the death of this amiable man aud celebrated and accomplished poet, which took place on Satur day last at Boulougue 6ur-Mer, whither hk had retired for the benefit of bis health. 3VJr Campbell, we believe, was m his 64th vear, and was a native of gUisgow.- In early Hfw he occupied the situation of tutor io a private family, residing n the sea coast of the JsJan of Mull, and while there planned, and paitly executed, his ce1elirated poe.ii "The Pleasure of Hope." -pit Campbell after wards removed to EdtDborg s and again, after , a short inter val, to London. H settled, at Sydenham and devoted1 imself to literature. t Tba suc cess of his poem" " Tba Pleasure of Hope," procured his admission itot'o the -most intellec tual society of London, and be was fuuiver, sally reoogjilzed as one of the brightest 6tars in that bright galaxy of piets who shed a lus, Ire on the first quaiter of the present century. The mingled eloquence and fervor of his style the independence and liberality or his ideas and the uobleaess of hi aspirations . for the freedom and improvement ol morikind ren dered him" a great accession to the liberal cause in thoso days when liberalism "was a greater merit," and less widely extended than it is now, and the warmest anticipations were iudulged in of the future career of the youug poet. He successively published the poems of 'Gertrude of Wyoming," which ha himself preferred to the tf Pleasure :of Hope," and m which verdict the best judges of poetry agree ; 'Theodoric,: various songs l and ballads, and more lately Tho Pilgrim of Gleucoe." This 'Theodoric' has found but few admires ; his 'Pilirriin of Glericoe.' written in the de cline of his years mid imagination, still fewer J but the universal voice ot criticism has pro nounced his lyrics to be without exception the finest, in the language. There is .nothing equal of their kind iu the whole rangoof our literature to the Uattle of the-Hdltic,' 'Ye Mariner of England,' and flohenliuden ;' lyrics which, indeed, to .use the words of .Sir Philip bidney, tn ' speakuig ot the ballads oi Chevy Chase, 'stir the heart like the sound ofa liumpet. Many others ol his ballads and lyrics are. scarrely iuleriott -'Lochiel's Warn l iog,' 'Lord Ullin's-Daughter,' 'The SUlief"s Dream,' ' The lust man,':N resbadeu's Gentle Hind,"' and others, rise before us as we rp-r-i!l them to our memory, and make us deplore that the poet who could -write su m!I would write so little, and that he has lft tho world no more compositions likejthose so hue iu conception, s- elegant aod so vigorous iu ex ecutiou, so tender and so tine in their senti ment. Alr'"CanipleH, besides p'fhlishiug a selection iroin the British poets, which has be conica standard work, was the author of vari ous irose compositions, which, had he not been so great a poet, would alone have gain ed him fame; but the merits of which .were comparatively rtbscured by tho greater blazu ot that more difficult and more gloriou renown which encircles the true poet. .The principal prose woik he wrote, were, a 'Life of Mis Siddons,' and a Life of Petrach. fie also published 'Letters Horn Algiers,' whither he went for'a short visit in 1S32, and more re cently edited, a .'Liib of Frederick the Great.' Mr Campbell was at one time connected with the. Star newspaper. He afterwards edited the New Monthly Ma'gazinc, and on retiring from -that office established the Metropolitan, which, however,-he did uot long couliuue to edit. - .... Ink spots.'

The-woik ot death was commcuced by Johnson taking au iixe, and iu daikness and silence appioachiug the sleeping man, buried the edge of it in his head. Animation wrii i.i.nrcdiately suspended, and without The least noise, they threw hv iileless body " ioto the sea. The next plan was to kill lilt- cap ain, aud Jones and Anderson were sent dowu iuto the cabin for that purnose ; but the sleeji- ing man's dog was keeping watch for his sate-' tyy-whila his- brother man was plotting his death. . This dumb animal made them too feaiful to proceed, and. they lelufucdou deck. Their plan was then temporarily alteied ; lhey proceed aft atid called up ihe carpenter, and as soon as- his head was above the companion, heeceived a blow with a hammer which stun ned him.

Ttiis became ihe accidental cause of calling Capt. McKetiZieim deck. "On the drowning man's o .i .- I -i ' . caning muroer, jietaitig, men near tne en trance to ihe cabin, called -out with a loud voice, "A mau overbomd !" when Capt Mc Kenzie, wiih the benevolent desiguof saving some of his crew,-rushed up on deck, and no sooner had he gof there, " but he -was attacked with an axa by Audorson. - y - - The blow, however, did not trlke pfTeif, and the assaulted man grappled with the murderer, who, H would appear, retreated, for it was some oistauce irom me caoiu siairs wneu ne was seized by Hazelton ; and Johusiou, who was commanded from the helm by r leldiug to as sist, running to tho scene of action, took hold of one of "bis captain's hahd Iu this situa tion, with three of tbet niurdereis holdinghrm. b!ielding gav-e- him repeated blows ou (he back patt of the head with an axe, which made him a corpse.. .

Fielding !" As soon as tho fatal blows suspended animation, the body was cast into-the sea. After a short consultation, they again as sembled aft, aud, by way of arousing the watch below, theylowered the jib the upio which this made, together with-the calls' of Fieldiug and others, soon brought the poor wretches on deck ; and with perfect security to themselves, in the darkness of midnight, and with weapons i of destruction in their hands, they silently despatched them one after another. a lhey , came on deck ; aud in short 'of an hour after the word of destruction began, six unsuspect ing uioitals were thus hurried into eternity, and their bodies buried under, the waves of the ocean. - , -. - Carr ied Galloway, the cook and steward, who were not in the plot, and whose duties did not call them.ou deck-, were (ben tbe-only ones that remained, and it became a matter of enquiry what should be done with them. Field ing proposed that they should be slain also. This was objected to,'aud some of them said no more blood should be spilled. --.When Jbey were called up in the morning, and informed what had been done, Galloway, we uu'der stood, said-r" that he was' sorsy they thad not killed him with his niessjuaies ;" and Carr was cryjng all tho rievt day. . . - 'l hey were then all called together by Field lug, "and an oath was administered, to them on the Bible,. that they all would be true to each other like a band of brothers- It . would ap pear, however, that Tlelding was suspicious of them," notwithstanding their unholy oath; for, , at his suggestiou, all the arms an ammunition tojether with axes, adzes, and all offensive weapons on board, were thrown into the sea. They then had the vessel, with all the cost ly freight e.ntirdy at their demaud,nd Field ing proposed that they shoulc turn hereto the coast of North America, laud at some seclud ed spot iu or about the Gulf of St. -Lawrence, aud secuie- their booty on shore, after which, lhey would go to the.

In a conversation the next day with John son, Fielding said that he would ,get. fid - of Carr and Galloway, when Uiey git. near the laud, by. giving them a dose of poison, aud a 1 fedged that lhey most luvn tho crew still farlhtr reduced. - 'I'hi JoIihsoo did not approve .-.of, wild -uieuti "tied iMu his, comrades, which oc t -a?ioued them all lo fcell sospjeieus of FieM--iug.
