THE ARCHDUKE CHARLES.

The Archduke Charles. of Austria, was barn
Sept. 3, 1771, being the third son of Peter Leopold,
tit* late, and brother of Francis the Ild., the present
Emperor of Germany. It cannot be expected that
" Apr *pits steroid enable us, even if we were in pos.
. piutsjin of all the circumstances, to enter into the de-
, 4P4raf a life devoted to the best services of his coun-
!or, a, series of years, and even now actively
3fiis
edrais *fleeing the deliverance of Europe; it
for the pen of the historian to describe his
. of glory, the magnificence of his exploit',
, the iticahaustible resources of his great mind,
trying and difficult emergencies. Leaving,
. the ta-ik of holding up this celebrated
8441 to the admiration of posterity, as the uni-
wimp friend of freedom, and the enemy to usurped
ts alad lawless power, we hall close this very imperfe&
...,asketch, with an anecdote, which, though short, is
a .well calculated to exhibit His Royal Highness in a
s. Amy interesting poi-t of view :—General M.lrceau.
I, a French Officer, of eminent talents, having been
~ mortally wounded, as he was reconnoitering an A us-
. 4 aian detachment, after their passage of the Sirs,
a ' daring the campaign of 1796, the Archduke sent his
„. tows surgeon to his assistance ; but this proving in.
.. nffieastal, on enst 'heath of Mat ceau, His Royal Iligh-
Am ordered his own troops to join those of the

Upon the evidence of this Gentleman, it appear-

tee some short time, and when she was in the depth
of want and misery, he lent her between 9 and )0
guineas, at different times. She had since married,
and came to his house ; but, instead of paying him,
abused him exceedingly ; and, as she stood by
the tire, he went to turn her out, when she seized
eta. poker, and aimed a violent blow at his head,
which he fortunately warded off, and it struck him

en the arm.
The lady in her defence said, that she had gone
to his house for the purpose of paying him the
money, which she solemnly affirmed was the wages
of prostitution he had given to her ; and that he had
frequently offered her large sums of gold, which lie
