could not get out of ttalear,'Wrirked in agony, and tried to shrink beaky° escape from them, but in vain. Sion after, 14aw an immense horse, one of the Scotch Greys, dash towards a Coldnel of the Imperial Guard, who had had his legs shattered; the horse was fright-J fully wounded. attsf part of a broken lance still rankled in one of its wounds. It rushed snorting and &tinging, port the Frenchman, and I shall never forget his piercing cry as it approached. I flew instantly to the spot. but ere I reached it the man was dead, for, though I do not think the horse had touched him, the terror be felt had been too much for hislizhausted frame. Sickened with the immense heaps of slain, which spread in all directions as far as the eye could reach, I st as preparing to return, when, as I was ste Ain't over the dead and dying, and meditating on the horrors of war, my attention was attracted by a young French man, who was lying on his back apparently at the last gasp. There was something in his countenance which interested me, and I fancied, though I knew not when, or whew, that I had seen him before. Some open let ters were lying around and one was yet grasped in his band, as though he had been reading it to the last mo ment. My eye fell upon the words " Mon tier ids," • in a female hand, and I felt interested for the fate of so affectirmate a son. When I left home in the morning ) I had put a flask of brandy and some biscuit into my pocket, in the hope that I might be use ul to the wounded; but when I Rased on the countless multitude which strewed the field, I felt discouraged loom a tempting to relieve them. Chance had now directed my attention to one individual, and I resolved to try t o save his life. His thigh was broken, and he was badly wounded on the left wrist, but the •ital parts were untouched, ind his exhaustion ►eemed to arise principally horn the Ids. of I poured a few drops of brandy into his mouth, and ounibling my biscuit, contrived to make him swallow a small particle. The effects of the dr ze were soon visible; his eyes half opened, and a faint tinge of colour spread over his cheek. 1 administered a little mole, and it revived him so much that he tried to sit upright. raised him, and contriving to place him in such a manner as to support him against the dead body of a horse, I put the flask and biscuit by his side, and de pal ted, in order to procure assistance to remove him. rec.illected that a short time before I had seen a smoke issuing from a deep ditch, and that my olfactory nerves had been saluted by a savoury smell as I passed. liui ied by there indications I retraced my steps to the spot, and found some Scotch soldiers sheltered by a hedge, very agreeably employed in cooking a quantity of beer steaki, over a wood fire, in a French cuirass! I as exceedingly diverted at this novel kind of flying pan, which served also as a dish; and after begging permission to dip a biscuit in their gravy for the.beuefit of my patient, I told my tale, and was gratified by the eagerness which they manifested to assist me; one ran to ca ch a horse a ith a soft hussar saddle (there were hundreds galloping over the field), and the rest went its, me to the youth, whom ue found surprisingly m eow red, though he was still unable to speak. The horse was brought. ati d as we raised the young Frenchman to put him upon it, his vest opened, and his livret" fell out.

FROM THR DUBLIN MORNING REGISTER 01 JAN. 1. The letter of the Duke of WlLLiscr N has been •fellimed by a commentary upon the views and s:ot timents which ate expressed us it, which is equally tem. , kable. Th.. Lord Lieutenant of iIttLAND stands f irward as the annotator upon the compositions of the Prime Minister. Lord ANGLESEY has also addeessed a late, is Doctor CURTIS. The head of the Roman Catholic Hierarchy has tf.u. been selected as a medium of cotomunication with the ritipite by the Chief Minifv. , , and the representative , f the S ivereigns The Marquis of A unt.eastr-bas, by this solemn exptession of his opinions, conferred an obligation upon Leland. The spirit of poli ical wisdom which pervades what may be regarded as an in,truc ion to the Government, and an injurction to the nation, is combined with a generosity of f cling, and a chivalrous devotion to she interests of this ci untty, which give him a lasting title to the affections of the Irish people. We repeat, that the nerciatipns which are to decide up , n the course which the English Government are to take in regard to Portugal, are not yet brought to that point which natal.' the Minister to calculate with any certainty as to the result. Speculations are therefore mere guess work, and ate hazarded without foundation. Some alai m has been escited by the busy note of preparation in the Walt Department of the French Go vernment, and there were those who foresaw somewhat more than was avowed in the getting up of large cape• ditions. Few, we believe, would e ject to a French army chastising the barbarians of the African coast, but there were many who fancied they saw something of a longing for a settlement in New Holland, and for the oc cupation of Egypt, and who felt also some misgivings, as to the opportunity which a series of su:cesses on the coast of Africa might give, in regard to the latter. The British Government are fully aware that no French army most be allowed • footing near the mouth of. the Nile; they know that General Aaancnomas was' reinforced from the Indian army, and that the same facility which admitted troops promptly to reach Egypt from India, would enable an army to reach India from Egypt; they are aware also that a settlement in the Indian seas would be another source of danger to oat possessions io the East. It is even hinted, that orders have been issued to our maritime forces to dislodge settlers, and resist every attempt to descend upon the coast of New Holland, where, in fact, we are about to found a new Colony. We have, indeed, no apprehen ion of danger from the once meditated movements of the French expeditions. Our f •reign policy at present is vigilant and commanding, and a ruse de guerre will hardly be possible under the circumstances which give foresight and efficiency to the Government of this kingdom. German Papers to the 27th ult. arrived this morning, but they bring no intelligence of importance. We sub join the rumours they contain from the bapks of the Danube: FROM THE LOWER DANUBE. Dec. 10. However persuaded the German friends of the Turks may be that the energetic Sultan ilahmond will employ all the honorees of his nation to the object of retaining possession of his European dominions, they are much mistaken if they infer from the diminso than of the Russian army en the right bank of the Danube, the fall of Varna and defeats of the Russians during the winter. The Turkish army is undoubtedly numerous at all the most important points, and is, on the whole, better armed and equipped than fors. wetly; but if the Russian army has, perhaps, too many veterans, the Turkish has it* many recruits, whom constraint. mare than re. neon, fanaticism, has caused to join the army. The Turkish dotal nines in the three Continents contain at the moat s population of seven and a half millions of Turks ; the African part is paralysed—. the Asiatic has, contrary to all expectations, sent into the field two sovereign Pachas, or rather representatives, who are doubtless furnished with secret instructions to secure the independence of the ['aches, in case of the overthrow of the Turks. The deposed Grand Visier acted with more prudence than the Sultan, in not venturing to risk the fate of the empire in one battle, but rather sacrificing Varna. A great defeat, and the impossibility of raising a second army, would have produced anarchy in Turkey, and a scene of confusion like that in Prussia in 1508, after the battle of Jena. Nut the old Pachas, but their sons, consider themselves, if the worst comes to the worst, as the heirs of the Sultan, and think of a kingdom like that of Egypt. the State of Tchapan Ogiou in Asia, the Barbary Regencies, the Captainship of the Albanians, Arnouts, &e. A conspiracy is wanting, but all the elements of dissolution are at hand. If the Sultan could command sufficient funds to pay the 100,000 Albanians, who are able to bear arms, it is possible that Russia might have the disadvantage ; only it is to be regretted that the several Russian Generals have supported each other so feebly, and theTurkishGenerals have acted with so much energy; but the hanging back of the Antonia and the brave Bosniacka, the diseases in the army, the bad state of the routes in the Balkan, and the want of artillery, make it impossible foe the Tusks to recover during the winter the fortress of Varna, the works of which have been pretty well repaired. Can it be supposed to be impossible for the Russian north coast of the Euxine to supply 12,000 Rus sians at Varna with provisions for six months ? Will the garrisons of Silistria, Widths, &c. be able to molest the 100,000 Russians in their winter quarters in Moldavia and Wallachia ? and can we think that the Russians will be unable to find subsistence among one and a half millions of inhabitants in the principalities, which are the most fertile provinces, and, except the incursions of the Packs of Widdin into Little Wallachia, have suffered nothing ,from pillage? Servia would readily revolt if it had areal guarantee frotnßussia that It would not be again sacrificed. It i. the lukewarm Christianity pre• •ailing in London, Paris, &c. that the Serviana and others dread. •If the Court of Vienna would openly declare that the revolted Chris. tians should not again become slaves of theTarkishPachas, the Chris. bans in Turkey would do wonders, for they have been deprived of every thing to supply the Turks with means of resistance. If more unanimity prevailed among the Russian Generals, it would have already been all over with Mahnruird, whom all the Turks dread as a scourge. Turkish fanaticism is as selfish as every other, 41134 not more desirable. Zdalunoud is surrounded with traitors, who would rejoice at his fall, which we may hops will not be the case of the Emperor Nicholas is 1829. England will not go to war to save the Porte. nor any Continental Power be willing to sacrifice itself for the Turk s.—.Nnreusburg Clort espostai. Des. 24. crrY, TwgLvi o•cLocg. The great excitensent and aeziety whit* bas prevailed for several days past, in regard to the bankieg-house of Messrs.

Every man of decidedly superior intellect or attainments should either reside in London or frequently visit it; this is the arena where ails encounter and brighten in the contest, and where many a one who bas thought himself a giant in the country has shrunk suddenly into a pigmy.—New , Monthly Magazine. p ti
