"The truce ended this morning. King Theodore
had not surrendered. Fallas Sclasse Islanv,e (?)
surrendered at once without fighting. Theodore
had retreated to Magdala. He planted five guns
at the base of the ascent. When General Napier
came in sight the King opened fire. The English
replied with 10-pounder Armstrong guns and 7-
pounder rockets. The King left his guns, barri-
caded the sally-ports, and opened with musketry.
He gave no signs of surrendering. The bombard-
ment lasted three hours. An assault was then
ordered. The fortress was carried after vigorous
resistance. The Abyssinian loss is 68 killed and
200 wounded. The English loss is 15 wounded,
rank and file. King Theodore was found dead, shot
in the head. His body was recognized by the Euro•
peans who had been released. Some say that he
was killed in battle, and others that he committed
suicide. His two sons have been taken prisoners.
The fortress presents many evidences of barbaric
splendour. Among the trophies taken are four gold
crowns, 20,000 dollars, 1,000 silver plates, many
jewels and other articles, 5,000 stand of arms, 28
pieces of artillery, 10,000 shields, and 10,000 sp-ars.
The European prisoners will depart for the sea-
coast to-morrow. The army will depart imme-
diately."
