OUR DANGER AND DUTY. .'.
The most terrible campaign of six months
the world has ever witnessed, was that of
Napoleon in Russia, ia 1812. Amid the
horrora ' accumulated . by the ferocity of
men and the rigors of climate, there were
manv splendid displays of heroism and en
durance, and one eminent example of pat
riotfctti, to whicli- it- may W well to draw
he attention of our people in thia hour of
tlietr trial. " ------

secured stroh p
his own cohimuniiiatmns with the richest
province of the empire, and ia a large
measure cut off those of the French.
For about one month he held thi posi
