that the Mediterranean already fwarms with

BENNINGSEN.

The preieut commander in chief of the Ruff.
han army, is of Engifh deficient. He command
ed dvifon of the Rufiian forces at the battle
of Aufertz. If we are to form an idea of this
mans character, from fome parts ofthe hiftory
OF MS pait life we cannot heGtate to pronounce
him greater favage, ifpofble, than the ce-
LIBERATED and ferocious Suwarrow. Bennipg-
len is one of the twelve a9afiins who murdered
the late emperor Paul, father to the prefent
emperor Alexander. He was one OF the mott
confpicuous aetsrsi in the abominahle fcene of
bale treachery and midnight murder, which
deprived Of life the man who had loaded him
with honours. The twelve ahafiins catered the
emperor's bed chamber at midnight. After
the baron Zonbot had declared To the unfor-
tunate Paul that they had come to take his life,
the emperor's irmnefs, and the terms of keen
reproach in which he addrefled himfefto Zon-
bolt and his favaee accomplices operated 70
forciby on their guilty condolences, that their
courage, for ihort time, failed them, when
Bennington, perceiving the effect Pau's intre-
pidity had produced, terminated his afIociates
by crying out, "H is oyer qvifb us if qve inter
him TO eycape :" ZonboR than made the iirt
blow at the emperor, and broke his right arm,
and by his audacity drew on the irrefoluse viii
lany of his accompiices, when they ali fell up
on him dragged him along by the hair of biz
head, and prolonged his fufferings by every
fpecies of barbarity their cruelty could invent
ftabbing him repeatedly in the moft tender pla-
ces, until quite exhauted with their own eff
forts and favage ferocity, one among them paf-
fed fcarf round the emperor's neck and
frangled him TO death Yet this fame Ben
ningfen is the fame man in whom Alexander the
ion of the murdered Paul repofes the ntmolt
confidence, and to whom he has entruited the
management ofthe military affairs of his en-
pire. This is the menfter for whole fuccefs the
Britilh government and the Swarm fedora
lifs" ofthis country are continually offering up
prayers and petitions to the throne of the om-
nipotent Dety !!
