The campaigns Of Italy, under The Directory
and Consulate, were well worth all The imperial
battles fought in the days of Frances splendid
degradation. The pass Of Mount St Bernard
stands unrsyalled in modern military history
The eaanons were dragged up the heights by
sheer strength Of arm, by efforts almost super
human. Peeuniary 6aotives for exertion, prof.
fer6d by the general, were rejected by the ar
my. The soldiers, one by one, climbed through
the crevices OF the ice-roct, and in five hours
they reached the convent of st. Peter. The de-
scent was yet more perslous. The infantry cut
short the difficulty BY sliding on their backs
down the ice. "The FIRST consul followed their
example, and, in the sight Of his army, sided
down height of two hundred feetl''
On the arrival Of the French fleet on III,
! Egyptian coasts, Napoleon wished the troops tC
( be landed Immediately; but Admiral Bruye.
would not consent, being afraid Of the sea, ther
agilated by strong west wind; but the genera
/ fek the value OF the moments which passed.
He saw the expedition exposed on the coast
and Alexandria in arms preparing FOR defence
and he wished positively TO land in spite Of The
waves.
The feet accordingly anchored; and during
1 the evening and part Of the night, the olsen
barkation took place, few leagues from Alex
andria, near place called the tower OF Mara
/ bout
When Napoleon wished TO execute the dis
embarkation without loss of time, he said to ad
miral Bruyes, the moment he quilted the Orient
awe must exert ourselves 10 open the port o
| Alexandria for YOU with the least possible de.
delay; and if it be not in condition to receive
the fleet, we must place you in safety elsewhere
You have conducted us successfullyi your tasl

! "What" rejoined the brave Bruyes, ado you
take us for common carriers, and our ships fol

1.-THE UEited Service Gazette" describes a
new piece Of ordnance for batteries and ships
invented BY Robert Armstrong, LIST dragoor
guards, Dublin. lis superiority over the old
battery guns consists in its being capable Of be-
ing brought to bear upon any object within an
angle Of ninety degrees, without the necessi y
Of moving its carriage; therefore fewer men
will be required 10 work it. A ship armed
with guns Of this description could bring the
whole Of her broadside TO bear upon any small
object within the angle of ninety degrees, with
out moving single carriage. II is particularly
adapted FOR bow and stern chasers. A ship Ell
ther pursued or pursuing could bring at least
two-thrds of her broadside TO bear upon her
enemy without altering her course one single
point, which could not be done with the ord.
nance nov in use.
In The event Of bombardment, every CUR
in the short space or two minutes could be con.
yerted into an inverted mortar if required. In
batteries they possess the same advantages over
the guns in present use, as at least three or foul
men less win be required to work them, a,
there VIII be no lifting to The right or left will
hand spikes; the metal of the gun is all that j,
moved when required TO fire either to the righ
or left. He has also invented field piece OF
the same principle; battery of which, whel
brought into action, viii not require TO have
their carriage moved unless change of front il
actually required. and in which the sliding scale
in tho brooch is dispensed with altogetheI.-

We have heard al cxcellent anscdoie
concerning one nf the physicians of cur

The WY .nlaeFslnnds his ploIession,) was

farmer, living some two or three miles ffom

patient, and left prescription, which was
sent to town aud 6lied at the Drug Store.

farmer, and he was silent.

In a few days the farmer came to town
with load, as much as his team could
