No lire | was visible and the night was as dark as pos-1 sible. It was neccssary to have a lamp to See where the tire was. The engine was push- j ed down the track, out of the way, when thel car was put on the side track, opposite the water tank. A hole was cut in the top of the car, and the water turned on. One bait? of cot- J ton was badly burned, and the car was some-! what damaged. The tiro was discovered by Mr. Hammond, the night watchman, and but /or bis watchfulness, serious damage would have been done. It Was in one of a train of j cars standing before the depot. I Messrs.

JJEFOHB WAGRAM, h On the night of the 22d the north* " era bank of the Danube presented a' . fearful spectacle; the flames of burn* lug villages and inelosuree threw fc * ghastly light on piles of the dead and c masses of the ruined material of war, 01 end despair and fear had replaced con* * fldence in the minds of the young * French soldiery. At a council of waf T hold on the Island of Lobau, Napch 1 leon's lieutenants to a man recom- ^ mended a retreat to the southern bank of th? Danube, even at the coat of <* abandoning the wounded, and more than one of them expressed apprehen- d slons that, after the shock it had re- b Oeived, the French army would be com- ti pelled to fall back to the Inn across ti the Rhine. But the more daring spirit h of Napoleon resented these ooun- * sels of timid caution, which, he just- ? ly observed, would prove disastrous; h he insisted that, though the northern M bank of the Danube should be at onoe d evacuated, his troops should retire no B further than the Island of Lobau, persuaded that, after two desperate bat- ^ ties, the Archduke would not try to attack; and experience proved that ? his view was correct, though possibly . ? a more vigorous antagonist would have i made his resolution fatal to him, Dur- im ing the night of the 2'2d, Massena, who a had added to his famo by the defence of Essling, superintended the retro* grade movement, while the Emperor, 4 with Davoust and othor chiefs?Laa- |w nes had met a soldier's death on the ' y field?crossed to the southern bank to secure the paasage and to provide for tho wants of the soldiers; and by the close of the 23d the French Army was safely encamped within the island, { without having been seriously molested. Napoleon had thus escaped a r tremendous peril; but though the bold resolution he displayed almost justt- 1 lied the false assertion that h? had 2 not suffered any revorse whatever, he j : had suddenly mot a real dofoat; and 1 whatever Imperial flatterers may say, * it - ~ +r\ ant* fliA rnncAn Tf 1 It 10 nut w ovv ?uw *.% I was a capital mistake to have at- i j tempted to cross a rivor of such size , * and depth in tho face of a strong, con- ! centrated foe, relying on a single 1! bridge only, and, with a different op- i ponent, such an error might have led , to a serious oatastrophe. It is prob- j able that, in vonturing on this false j movoment, Napoleon, judging from 1 past experience, and thinking that the * Austrian* were beaten troops, believed ,' that the Axohduke would retreat be- I fore him when his army appeared on j the northern bank, and that he would ] have ample space to pursue his adver- I sary, and to oblige him to fight far bo- 1 \ yond tho Danube. But this oxpoota- i tion was at best doubtful; it was not ,' likely to be fulfilled considering the temper U the Austrian Army; and in J this experiment of the French Em- | peror wo seo not inly tho habitual contempt he entertained for a defeated , enemy, however tenacious, patriotic, ; and brave, but also that reckless over- J pr)nfiflf>rff>A whif*h frnt. t.hfl better of his judgment, and may be j traced even in his most splendid ex ( iftottKr?'Tkwpfc Bar. - - < . .. . ... t t y ' * 1HB TBAFTER TRAPPED) i party ol hunters from thi? dfcy woi' re just rettLrbed from an expedition into' i Sierra Nevteda, about forty miles from' ra, relate the fallowing remarkable inci? it :^-On last ihureday afternoon^ about ee o'clock, two df-Jhe party were on the il of a deer, wliichlod them'into ft remote' dne in the fastnesses 'of tho - mountains, o which they had noi before ventured.' e snow beintr about two fuet deep and the" Iking very heavy they became, diecotir;d, and losing all hope of overtaking- th? :r, which they had wounded, they abanled the putsuitr.
