The off er, whose name Louis Ducou-
droy Of Hoistein is subscribed to the bull
'etin, which We publish this dav, was in this
city about three years ago. He is a Dane
Nv birth, and an educated soldier. Lid by
tie spirit fhis profession and the 1--we of
liberty. he entered early into the Freach
revolutionary army, and fought under the
tri>cot0r for nearly 20 years-he was the
chief of the staff of marshal NJ cdonald in
Catalonia. and. in action III ~, W left on
the field of battle among the dead-his
wounds thodgh severe were not mortal /;
but he was taken prisoner by the Span
iards, and detained until favorable op-
por.u ity. and q fs7v ounces enabl d him to
make his way to the u States. As lie has
lost ali but honor in Old Spain. he turned
his attention to S juth America. This gal
liant soldier, unitcs with the finest accom-
plishments of the gentleman, ard the
knowledge Of perfect military education,
the experience OLA practical st,f fl officer in
the most celebrated military campaigns.
10 the South Americans, such a mans
knowledge is a treasure not to be aPprecia-
ted but by those who are acquainted with
al the Affections and calamties which flow
from commanders without experience, ia
tents and concern about the comfort or the
lives OF those by whoal they gaia battles ard
renown.
1t is thus that the French revolution, by
contributing experience and genius to the

on. compensates, in some measure, for the
misfortune Of its disasters in the old world
