BATTLE OF WAGRAM.
by EEApLY.

Early in the morning, the Austrians taking
advantage of their success of The day before
commenced the attack. and the thunder of
their guns al daylight brought Napoleon in
TO his saddle. The field was again alive with
charging squadrons, and covered with men,
the conflict ragged without moments cessa-
,ion. Every where, excep, against the Aus.
trians' left, the French were defeated From
the steepes OF Vienna, the multitude gazed
on the progress ofthe doubtful fight, till they
heard the cheers of their countrymen above
the roar of cannon, driving the flying enemy
before them, when they shouted in Joy, and
believed the victory gained. But Napoleon
gallopped up, and restoring order in the dis.
ordered lines, ordered Davoust to make a
circuit. and ascending the plateau of Wagram
carry Nensiedel. While waiting the result
OF this movement, on the success of which
depended all his future operations, the French
lines under Napoleon's immediate charge
were exposed 10 most scourging fire from
the enemy's artillery, which tore them into
fragments. Unable TO advance, and too dis
tant 10 return the fire, they were compelled
to stand, as id!e spectators, and see the can
non-shot plough through them. Whole bat
talions, driven frantic by this inaction in the
midst of such fearlnl carnage, broke and fed.
But every thing depended on the infantry
holding firmly their position till the effect of
Davousts assault was seen. Yet, nothing
but Napoleon's heroic bravery kept them
steady, Mounted on his milk-white charger
Euphrates, giten him by the king of Persia,
he slowly rode backward and forward before
the lines, while the cannon balls whsted
and drafted like hail-stones about him-cast-
ing ever and anon an anxious look towards
the spot where Davoust was expected TO ap-
pear with his fifty thousand brave followers.
For Whole hoar he thus rode in front of his
men, and though they expected every mo-
ment to see him shattered by a cannon ball,
he moved unscathed amid the storm. AT
over the plateau of Wagram, and finally ap-
pear with his cannon on the farther side Of
Nensiedel. In moment the plateau was
covered with smoke as he opened his artille-
ry on the exposed ranks of The enemy. A
smile lighted up Napoleon's counlenance, and
the brow that had been knit like iron during
the deadly strife Of the two hours before, as
word was constant brought him of his sue
cessive losses and the steady progress ofthe
Austrians-cleared up, and he ordered Mac
donald, with eight battalions, to march straight
on the enemy's centre, and pierce it. .Gs.r

This formed the crisis ofthe battle, and no
sooner did the Archduke see the movement
Of this terrible column of eight bat,alions,
composed Of sixteen thousand men, upon his
centre than he knew that the hour Of Eu-
ropes destiny and Of his own army had ar
rived. He Immediately doubled the lines at
the threatened point, and brought up the re-
serve cavalry, while two hundred cannon
were wheeled around the spotson which such
destiniss hung; and opsasd steady fire on

mother, daughter OF Sir D. Falconer, President
OF the College of Justice, as a woman of "sin.

her husband. She also wrote a novel highly
praised by ohnson.-ScHiLLER.- His mother

her favourite child. GOETHE thus speaks of

BE STRONG AND BRAvE-BE FIRM AND

ny EDWARD u. HOWARD.
Be strong and brave--be firm and true
In whatso'er thou hast to do; ...
When truth and right arc with you, there
Must be no moment for despair!
If rugged seem the path you tread,
And Hope doubtful glim'ring shed
Where, far before, the good you seek
Is hodgcd by many an Alpine peak,
While frozen torrents rage between,
And yawning chasms intervene,
Oh, falter not--press on anew,
For truth and right, be firm and true!
If error triumph for day
And wrong achieve tyrranic sway
Ifmonstrous evils grow with years,
Whose sap is human blood and tears
If all efforts seem TO be
Like snow-6akcs falling on the sea,
Which serve the darkening tide TO swell,
And leave 10 whiteness where they fell
If heart grow sick, and eyes grow dim,
And laintness seize the weary limb
If bear-eyed, dull Dependency
Shall come where Hope was wont to be-
Oh, sound the must'ring spirit drum,
AS once ye did when Hope was young!
Bid all the glories of thy soul
Their banners on tho night unroll!
Call out the high resolves once more,
Wnich nervcd to noble deeds before,
And wuhc the music which can thrill
Thy being with its rapture still
Plant little amid the thorns thy feet
Loud through the gloom thy cry repeat
Swing upward still thy torch of fame,
And strike ior truth and right the same!
Though night and storms and foes surround,
And threat'n ming clouds sink darkly down,
Onward and upward press anew,
To truth and right for ever true
