The enemy was then more than 30,000, but he had very few
cavalry and artillery, the latter being unable to follow the rapid
movement of the infantry, which, coming from Brussels, had
marched nine leagues. However, Itlarsh.d Ney, by his intre-
pidity, and by the ardour of the French troops, gained always
ground, and repulsed an enemy superior in force. The Duke
of Brunswick had been killed ; charges of Cuirassiers bad broken
the square of the 42d regiment (Scotch), seized its colours, kil-
led its Colonel ; victory was about to declare for the French
when the divisiocs of Cock and Alten re-established the affairs
of the enemy.
We come now to the ever-memorable battle of '
Waterloo. The force of the French on that day is
stated at 66,000 men, and '240 guns.
• The force of the Anglo-Dutch army, it is said, was from
93,000 to 90,000 fighting men, and 450 guns. The Frehch
army having only Irons 67,000 to 68,000 men, was much irie-
rior, hut it was superior in the nature of the troops. The Bel-
gian and German soldier, were not equal to the French soldiers,
amongst whom were the Imperial Guards, and the four divi-
sions of Cuiraniers. The French artillery, on account of the
reserve batteries of the guard, was as numerous as the enemy's
artillery. The victory did not appear doubtful, and with thii
victory, we might hope for the destruction of the English army,
from the position which it had taken. At break of day the
Emperor, when breakfasting, said, " Out of a hundred chances
we have eighty for us !"
' General Gourgaud, after describing the positions
of the two armies on the morning of the 18th, in-
forms us that the project of the Emperor was to pierce
the centre of the British army, to drive it along the
road, and arriving at the entrance of the forest, to
cut off the retreat of the right and left of the line.—
The complete success of this attack must have ren-
dered all retreat impossible, bring along with it the
destruction of the British army, and at all events se-
parate it front the Prussian.

The following is his account of the state of things
on the an ival of the Prussians :

Te field of battle was covered with the English Guards, the
flower of the enemy's army. It was half-past four o'clock : the
most terrible fire raged on all sides. At that instant General
Doniont sent to inform his Majesty that the corps of Below,
which he observed, was putting itself in movement, and that a
division of from 8,000 to 10,000 Prussians were debauching
from the woods of Frichenois ; that they had no news of 3lar.
sisal Grouchy ; that the recannoiseancel which he had sent in the
directions by which he was to come, had not met one of his
couriers. The corps of Cour.t Lobau • moved in three columns
on the positions which he had recognized. By this movement
this corps had its front changed, and was placed en potence on
the extremity of our tight. The first Prussian brigade, warmly
received, was immediately put to route ; it was immediately
supportell by the second brigade, and half an hour after the
whole of the rest of the Corps of Bulow arrived, and:forreed,
debording always the right of the Count de Lobau Aso that
Bulow, though be did not gain ground on the latter, still pro-
longed his Are on our rear. The Sixth Corps was ranged in
lbattle parallel to ch.: causeway, at the distance of a musket
shot from Belle Alliance. The Prussian balls reached that cause-
way, which served for all the movements of the annyomd even
ilbeyond into the group of the Emperor.—(To be continued.)
• At half-past four the.corps of Lobau, 7,000 strong, advan-
, ccd against the Prussians, which reduces to eO,OOO men the
troops opposed to the English.
