BATTLE OF WATERLOO. makshal nky. After tho hundred days preparation, Napoleon advanced to the Low Countries, to meet the Allies, again banded together for his overthrow. Ho attacked lJluchor at Ligny, and defeated him, and so hard pressed was this old veteran that he lie was overthrown, and lay entangled under his horse in the darkness, wliilo tho French cavalry passed twice over his body without observing him ; ho then oxtrieatod himself and joining his troops, retreated to "Wavres.? iNoy had been loai successful at Quatre ]?ras in his attack on Wellington, but lie had retired in pood order, and effected a junction with Napoleon, and the two together moved down on Waterloo, where the Duke had taken up his position?entirely separated from tho Prussian army. To understand the field of battle, imagine two slightly semi-circular rid go.i or rather slopes, a half-mile apart, curving gently forward, somewhat in the form of a parenthesis, and you have tho positions of the two armies. On tho summit of one of these slopes was drawn up the French army, and on the other, that of the Kntrlish and allies. The night of the 17th of June was dark nud stormy?the rain fell in torrents, and tho two arinios lay down in the tall rye, drenched with rain, to wait the morning that was to deoido the fato of Europe and of Napoleon. From the ball room at Brussels many English officers had been summoned in haste to the field, and shivering and cold were compollcd to paws the night in mud and ruin, in their elegant attire.? Tho artillery had cut up the ground so that the mud was ankle-deep, while the tall rye lay crushed and matted beneath the feet of tho soldiers. The morning of tho 18th opened with a drizzling rain, and the two armies, benumbed with cold, and soaking wet, rose from their damp beds to the contest. IOighty thousand French soldiers wcro seen moving in close, massive columns on tho crcst of the height, ns they took up their several positions for the day. After all was completed, Bonaparte rode along the lines in the highest spirits, confident of success, and exclaiming, "now to I Kr/.oL'r,,.? " Utl~ .!.? ..I. ? i I nillli; tliu MHMll, " Vive I Kmpeveur I" that rolled after him bhook the field on which they s<tood, aud fell with ominous tones on the allied army. Two huudred and sixty-two cannon lined the ridge like a wall of death, ready to open their fire on the enemy. At eleven o'clock tho signal of attack was given, and theeol- | uruns moved in beautiful order down the slope. Wellington's lines occupied two miles in extent, with tho right resting on the Chateau frougomont, which from the defences it furnished was equal to a redoubt. Tho centre was protected by a farm-house, La Maye Saintc, while the left strctched out ill llio rmon liSivif .fnv/\mA !*. o - "I? ?- - w parte led a column of ?ix thousand men down on ITougOmont, who in tho face of a most destructive fire pushed up to the very walls of tho chateau, and thrust their bayonets through the door. But the Coldstream Guards held the court-yard with invincible obstinacy, and he was compelled at length to retire, after leaving 1-iOO men in a little orchard beside the walls, where it does not Hocin so many men could be laid In a nhort time the battle became general along the whole line, and heroic deeds were performed on every rod of the contested field.

Driven tu desperation by their repeatedly foiled attempts, thov at length stopped t heir horses and coolly walked them round and round the squares, and whenever a man fell, dashed in, in vain valor. Whole ranks went down like smitten grass before the headlong charges of cavalry nnd infantry. In the centre the coutcat at length became awful, for thero the crisis of the battlo was iixed.? "Wellington stood under a trco while the boughs wore crashing with the cannon shot overhead, nnd nearly his whole guard sinit ten down by his side, anxiously watching ' the progress of the fight. 11 is brave squares, torn into fragments by bombs and rioohet shot, still refused to yield one foot of ground. | Napoleon rodo through his ranks, cheering J on the exhausted columns of infantry?-and i cnvalry, that rent the henwith the shout of " Viv.r. f Empwrwr !" and dashed with unpar.dleltad reoklc?sness on the bayonets of tho English, The hero of VVftgmm, and Borodino, and AnsterUtz, nnd Marengo, and Jena, enraged at the stubborn obstinacy o( tho JJritish, rode over the field, and was still suroof viet/irv.

Thus from eleven till four did tho battle rage with sanguinary ferocity, and still around tho centre it grew more awful every moment. The mangled cavalry staggered up to tho exhausted British squares, which, though diminished and bleeding in every part, seemed rooted to tho ground they stood upon. The horoic Pioton had fallen at tho head of his brigade, while his sword was Hashing over his head. Ponsonby had gone down on the hard-fought field, and terror and slaughter were on every side?still tho charge of tho French cavalry on the centre was terrific. Disregarding tho oloso and murderous firo of the Brit isli batteries, they rodo steadily forward till they came to the bayonet's point, and then finuly urged their horse'* heads against the barrier, but in vain?pierced through and broken, they were rolled back over the field, but rallied again and again to the charge, and prodigies of valor were wrought, and heroes fell at every discharge. Tho ront and trodden field ran blood, yet through tho deep mud tho determined foomen pressed on, while out of the smoke of every volley arose from tho French lines the shout of i(vive VEmptsrour!" OHAftmi OF TUB GUARD. At length a dark object was seen to emerge from the distant wood, and soon an army of 30,000 men deployed into the field, and began to march straight for the scene of conflict. Blucher and his Prussians had come, bnt no Grouchy, who had been left to hold them in check, followed after. Jn a moment .Napoleon saw that he could not sustain the attack of so many fresh troops, if once allowed to form a junction with the allied forces, and so he determined to stake his fate on one hold cant, and endeavor to pierce the allied centre with a grand charge of the Old Gu ild?and thus throwing himodf between the two armies, fight them separately. For this purpose the Imperial (I,.nr.! wnu nnllnrl l.o,l .... inactive during the whole day, find divided into two immense columns, which were to meet at the British centre. That under Ilcille no sooner entered the lire than it disappeared like mist. The other was placed under Ney, the " bravest of the brave," and the order to advance given. Napoleon accompanied them part of the way down the slope, and halting for a moment in a hollow, addressed them in his fiery, impetuous nianir~ ?~i.i 4i -I? ' uvi. illy wjiu mum uiu uainu rcsiotl Willi thorn, and that lie relied on their valor.? " Vivr. 'I JBmpcreur !" answered him with a shout that was hea?d all over the field of battle. lie thou left them to Ncy, who ordered the charge. Bonaparte h;us been blamed for not heading this charge himself; but ho know he could not carry that guard so far, nor hold thoin so lung before tho artillery, as Ney. The moral power tho latter carried with him, from tho reputation ho had gained of being the " bravest of th<", brave," was worth a whole division. Whenever a column saw liim at their head, they | knew that it was to be victory or aiinihilu tion. With tlic exception of Macdonald, 1 do not know a general in the two armies who could hold his soldiers so long in the very face of destruction as he. 'i'he whole Continental struggle exhibited no subliinor spectacle than tins last effort of Napoleon to save his sinking empire. Europe had been put upon the plains of Waterloo to be battled for. The greatest military energy audskill the world possessed had been tasked to the utmost during the day. Thrones were tottering on the ensanguined field, and the shadows of fugitive kings flitted through the smoke of battle. Bonaparte's star trembled in the zenith? now blazing out in its ancient snloudor. now suddenly paleingbefore his anxious eye.? At length, when the Prussians appeared on the field, ho resolved to stake humps on one bold throw, +(? committed himself and France to Ncy, and saw his empire rest on a single charge. The intense anxiety with which he watched the advance of that column, and the terrible suspense he suAcred when the smoke of battle wrapped it from sight, and the utter despair of his great heart when the curtain lifted over a fugitive army, and the despairing shriek rung on every side, "la garde rrculc." "fa garde reculemake us for tho moment forget all tho carnage in sympathy with his distress. Ney felt the pressure of the immense responsibility on his brave heart, and resolved not to prove unworthy of tho groat trust committed to his caro. Nothing could be more imposing than the movement of that grand column to the assault. That ginrd had never yet recoiled before a human foe, and the allied forces behold with awe its firm and terrible advance to the final charge. For a moment the batteries stopped playing, and the firing ceased along the British linos, as without the beating of a drum, or the blast of a bugle, to choor their steady courage, tney moved in dead silence over i the plain. The next moment the artillery opened, and the head of that gallant column seemed to sink into tho earth. Rank after rank went, down, yet thoy neither 8topped nor faltered. Dissolving squadrons, and whole battalions disappearing one after another in the destructive fire, affected not their steady courago. The ranks closed up | as before, and each treading over his fallen i comrade, pressed firmly on. The horse | which Noy rode fell under him, and hp. hud scarcely mounted another beforo it also sunk to the earth. Again and again did that unflinching man feci his steed sink j down, till fine, h id been idiot under him.? Then, witli his uniform riddled with bullet*, mid his face singed and blackened with powder, he marched on fi>ot with drawn sabre at the bend of his men. In vain did the artillery hurl its storm of (ire and lead into that living mass. Up to the very muzzles they pressed, and driving the artillerymen from their own pieces, pnshed on through the English lines. Hut at. that iilAtnnnf d nf uaMIai-o t..v.Mvuv ? ?.w vi uviuivin itiiu IIUU IHUI Hill on th(} ground, f>*bind a low ridp^e of onrth, HUarfonly rose and ponrcd a volloy in their very face#. Another ami another followed till oiio broad sheet of flainO rolletl On tlioiv bosoms, and in such a ficree aud Uf>Qxpcu.ted llow, that human courage could not withstand it. They reeled, shook, H^ggored back, then turned and fled. Noy was borne back in the refluonttide, and hurried ovor the field. Hut for the crowd of fugitives that forced him on, he would have stood alone, and fallen on his footsteps. As it was, disdaining to fly, though the whole army was flying, he formed his men into two immense squares, aud endeavored to stem the tcrriflo current, aud would have done so had it not been for the thirty thousand fresh Prussians that pressed on his exhausted ranks. For a long time these squares stood and lot tho artillery plow through thorn. But tho J'uto of Napoleon was writ, ami though Noy doubtless did whut no othor man in t lie army could have done, the dccrcc could not ho reversed. Tho star that had blazed so brightly over the world, wcut down i'i blood, aud the "bravest of tho brave" had fought his last battic. It was worthy of his great natuo, aud the charge of the Old Guard at Watorloo, with him at thoir head, will bo pointed to by remotest generations with a shudder. Wo now cotno to tho expiration of his treason by a public oxcc'iMon. Tho allies after tliev aSSUIllblftd ill i mis rlrtir?ani-tnr1 some victims to appease their nuger. Many wero selected, but bettor counsel prevailed, and they wero saved. Ney was a prominent example; ho had routed their armies too frequently and too nearly wrested their crowns from them at Waterloo, to bo forgivon. It was intended at first to try him j by martail law, but the Marshals of Franco refused to sit in judgment op so bravo, generous, and horoic a warrior, by a royal ordinance, tho Chamber of Peers was then directed to try him. Scorning to take ad vantage of any technicalities of law, ho was J speedily found guilty and condemned to J death, l>y a majority of a hundred and fiftytwo. Seventeen only were found to vote in his favor. That lie was guilty of (reason in the ict'or of tlio charge, is evident, but not to that extent which demanded his death. No man had done more for Fiance than ho, or loved her honor and glory with a higher a flection ; and his ignominious death is a lasting disgraco to the French nation. Justice was tho excuse not the ground of his condemnation. To havo carried out tho principle on which his sen 1 1 I -? I - > ' - iv,|.1,u iijia VtUUlU 11HVI3 OI1UCU 111 a public massacre. Ney and Labcdoyere were the only victims offered up to appease an unjust hatred. Besides, Ney's person was ' sacred under a solemn treaty that Welling ton had himself made. One of tho articles of that treaty, expressly declared that "no person should be molested for his political conduct or opinions during the hundred day*." On such conditions was Paris surrendered, and there never was a more 11agrant violation of national honor than tho trial of Ney. Tho whole affair, from boginning to end, was a deliberato murder, committed from feelings of revenge alone. Napoleon never did so base an act in his life?and on Wellington's forehead is a spot that shall crow darker with tiniA .mil /-husa many a curso lo bo muttered over bis grave 1 To should hnvo interfered to have saved so gallant an enemy at tho hazard ot' his lite, but he let his honor go down before the clamor of vindictive enemies, and become a murderer in the sight of *he world. Ney was publicly shot as a traitor. His lust momenta did not disgrace bis life. He was called from his bed and a tranquil sleep to hear his sentence read. As tho preamble went on enumerating his many titles he broko in?" why cannot you dimply call mo Michael Ney?now a French soldier and soon a heap of dust?" Tho last interview with his wife and children shook his 6lern heart more than all the battles he had passed through, or bis appraching death. This over ho resumed bis wonted calmness. In reply to ono of his sentinels. who saiil, "Marshal, you should now think of death," ho replied, " Do you suppose any one should teach mo to din ?" But rccollooting himself, ho added in a milder lone, "Comrade, you arc right, send for tho curate of St. Sulpieo; I will dio ns become# a Christian!" As lie alighted from tho coach, ho advanced towards tho filo of soldiers drawn up as oxeeutioners, with tho same calm mien lie was wont to exhibit on the field of initio. An officer stopping forward to bandage his oyes, ho stoppod him with tho proud interrogation, " Are you ignorant that for twenty live years I have been nceustomed to face both ball and bullets V' IIo thon fook oil' his hat, and with his caglo oye, now subdued and solemn, turned towards heaven, said with tho same calm and decided voico that had turned tho tido of so manv bullion " T iln?liir? J ?' - ? fore God and . man, that I have never betrayed tny country ; may my death render lier liabpy, vive la France !" lie then turned to tho soldiers, and gazing on them a moment, struck ono band upon bis heart said, " my comrades, fire on mo." Ten balls entered him, and he fell dead. Shame upon his judges that for a single act could condemn ono braver and nobler than they nil, to so bason, death. A sterner warrior novor trod a battle-field?a kinder IfOjfH never beat in a human bosom, and a truer patriot never shed his blood for bis country. If Franco nevor has a worso traitor, the day of her betrayal will be far distant, and if sho hns no worse defender, disgraco will never visit her armies.

Jonathan resolved to "pop it" to the old man next day. Night passed and on the dawn of anotliel* day the old man wils found iu his barn lot feeding his pigs, and Jonathan resolved to ask for Sal.

An American and an Englishman having descended into a uonl initio to inspect its dingy wonders, upon emerging (hey held the following dialogue : " Do you know," said I, " l'icton what we would do if we had such a devil's pit its that in tho States ?"
