other in the name of Samuel Lewis, for

THE CAMPAIGN OF

UPON thele tidiags, the CoDful
mounted bis favorite charger at eleven
O'Clock, and made great hattie 60 the
field OF battle. Both cannon and NUT
kerry, on certain points, began now to
be heard and 70 approach nearer and
nearer tous. We were forty TO fee 70
many, both of cavalry and infantry, re-
tire inro the rear, wounded by the fire
Of the oniet. The enemy's line was
extended to the 1pace of two leagues
for, 1t is necefary TO remark, that the
Borrnida, though generally rapid and
deep, was nevertheless fordable at FIVE
raj places, The enemy was particular
ly tenacious Of its potion near the
bridge; bat the principal point OF action
was at San Ssefano. From this point
the enemy could gain Voguera, before
we could, and thereby CUT off our rerrear.
They, therefore, incelantly directed
their attention to this weak point. By
twelve O'Clock we were well convinced
VIC had the whole AuGrian force againit
us, and that they now, in good earneit,
accepted the challenge which they had
declined the day before.
Dor General was now fatisfed of the
mealures he had to purfue. Orders
were given to the dispoieable troops in
the rear TO come forward; bur the corps
under the command of Deiaix was fill
at a conGderable diltancc. The left
wing uuderth command of victor be-
gan 10 give way; and we perceived fe-
vcral corps Of infantry retire in ddor-

Improvements in labour- having ma
chimes will one day be rranfplanred by
emigranrs from England TO America.
OF The importance of thefe the reader
may Judge by the following extract of
a letter from Edinburgh, dated the goth
Of Auguf, 1895.
'eWe have made greatiniproveraents
&c in labour iaging machines. Our Ii
" ncn yarn is now pnn ~ eoater, and
&c our women weave. In ihort we ma

writer of the letter is perfon of vera
city. This Invention alone would fhew
what uieful lefTons in political economy
remain, to be acquired by the United
States, Many perfons in this country,
are wiling enough to flighr emigfanrs
without legifative exhortation. Some
of rhefe people were lately travelling OF
foot aerofs New Jertey. They were
refIled drink of water. The reaioh
aligned was that it had been brought
from comfortable diftance, and the
carriage Of If required trouble. One of
the enigrants fell fcl<, was refufed al
fiitance ofany Kind, and had almoa pc
rifhed for want of thoie common Offices
of humanity which arc TO had among the
Greeks and CherctIees, Some time
ago, a gentlewoman from England, with
her two daughters, arrived b. the fage
coach, in q certain ciey that G1all be
namelefs. On alighling atthe inn they
.afked for diih Of tea, bur it conld nos
be got. They found their way TO afo-
cher inn, where tea was procured, but it
was hardly drank when they were told
chat the room was befpol<e, and they
were a fecond time turned atrifr. Some
gentlemen from England were flpping
in tavern where they called for cheefe.
The anlwer wasrhat the houfe had none

AS TO the contamination of purity and
