lowing fact:
A gentleman lately returned from; Paris,
saw the 9Th corps of the French army Zone

10000 additional troops required by that
general previous to his taking the command

! parte.
II passed in at ore gate Of the Thuille-
RIGS, where Bonaparte was, and out at the
opposite one. 1t formed complete army
of 10000 men, Of which 10000 we're ca
valry. There we're two divisions OF iGfan-
try Of IS 900 each, with all the adjunc,s of
train Of artillery, pontoons, breed wag-
! gons, and those various troops OF sappers,
artizans, &c, &c. invariably attached TO the
French armies.
! Bonaparte was so minute in his inspec-
( tiop, that when particular pontoon came
up, drawn only by four horses, the rest Of
fourteen in all, being drawn by six, with
led horses to each, he Immediately halted
the corps, and asked the cause of this def
cheney. He was told that one horse had
GOT lane, and that his companion had been
taken away with him. Then" said Be-
naparte, g let the deficiency be supplied
from the led horses !; that is the use Of
them" This was accordingly done, the
march was resumed till the whole passed
under the eye Of he emperor.
Within two months, however, this corps
thus full and complete in every particular,
had suffered so much by want, fatigue,
sickness and desertion in the bare march
into Spain, that in tie first return sent 10
the war Office az Paris from the frontiers Of
Portugal, its effective strength was stated
only at $1,000, making Ok fclency OF 5000,
and subsequently, WHEN it maneuvercd be-
tween Lord Wellington's army and that OF
Ciudad Rodrigo, 1t was rated only at TWEEN
ty six thousand.
Allowing a reasonable deduction for de-
tachments, sc. (though this being fight

In the Report of the suit of the Common
wealth against Maj. John Clarke, it was
stated, that Maj Isaac Otcy. of Bedford, had
voted for the Institution of the suit, in the
Legislature of 1903, and that he was one of
the most effective witnesses on behalf of the
State.-On examining the Journals, however,
it will appear that Mi. Q. did not vote at
all OH the resolution for the commencement
OF the suit--As to his testimony, Maj O con
ceivsdit to be his duty to attend the trial,
after having been commanded by sum

to the subject, 70 which his testimony
