Biajght from ao great a diatance, and on the occu

placed. v
An hour alter tbe btnperor wa apprized mat
hia order bad been executed ; a nie twenty m
candiariee had bceo ahot. They had avowed that
they ware lo Ihe number of nine hundred, and j
that before evacuating Moacow," the Governor
Roatopchiii, bad concealed them in cellar, iu or

Kremlin, Ihe re deoce of tbe Curs, waa riot aa

THE HELD OP WATERLOO.'.
I have epoken heretofore with suioo levity of the.
contrast that (lists between lito English and Fr'uc
character ; but it deserves more serious considers
lion They are the two great nation of modern
timos roost diametrically opposed, and most worthy
of each other's rivalry j essentially dwtinct in their
charactors, excelling iu opposite qualities, and rej.
flee iug lustre on each other by their very oppoei
lion, Iu nothing is this oou rust more strikingly
evinced than in thi-ir military conduct.' Fur agca
have they been contending, and for agee have thef
crowdod each other's history with act of splendid
heroism. Take the Battle of Waturho, liif, in
stance, the Inst and moat memorable trial of tlttir
rival prowess. Nothing could surpass tha briilninl
daring on the one side, and tbe sieiuliast enduring
on the other. The Ficuch cavalry bruke like
waves on the compact squares of English infantry.
They were seen gslloping round those sorriud wall
of men, seeking in vain fur an entrance; loading
uieir arms in ine air, in me nehi oi tneir eiiibuoi
asm, and braving Ihe whole front of battle. The
British troops, on the oilier hand, forbidden to move
ot fire, stood fir hi and enduring. Their cotuutiia
were ripped up by cautMiury whole ruwi were
ewt'pt at a shot : the aurvivura closed their ranks.
aud stood firm. In this way many column stood
through tbe pelting of the into temjtest without ti
ring a shot ; without any action to stir their blood,
or excite their ini. Death thinned their ranks,
but could not aliufe their souls. .
A beautiful instance of the quick and generous
impuhtes to which the French are prone, is given
in Ihe case of a French cavalier, in the hottest of
the action; charging furiously upon a ttrilmb offi
cer, but pe.ceivmg tu the moment of assault, that
bis adversary had lost his sword arm, dropping the
(xtint of hia Mure, aud courteously riding on.
Vace be with that gencruu warrior, whatever
were hi fate I If tie went down in the storm of
battle, with the foundcrmij fortune of hi ciuellain.
