Loss ofEifs in Great Rnttles.

The waste of human life in the unsuccessful
attack on the Malakoff and Redan appears to
have been nearly as great (though not quite)
as in the average of the most destructive of
modern battles. More than five thousand of
the assailants were killed and wounded, a
vast proportion, when we consider how small
comparatively the storming column vas
The French alone admit a loss of thirty
eight hundred men; out of an attacking force
of twenty-five thousand that is TO say, every
seventh man was rendered incapable, either
by death or wounds.
There is, indeed, one modern siege more
bloody than this-not actually, however, but
when the numbers engaged are compared
with those who fell We allude to the second
siege of Badajoz, in the Peninsular war;
That famous Spanish fortress was invested
by Wellington, at the head of twenty-five
thousand men, and finally carried by storm
after one of the most sanguinary assaults or
record. In the attack on the great breach
alone not less than thirty y-eight hundred mer
| fell. Yet Badajoz was a small place, the for
not being larger. perhaps, than the Malakof
and its out-works. Whoever would realizt
half the horrors of war should read Napier
account Of the fall of Badajoz.

LIFE AND DEATH.

We went day or two ago TO visit an old
and dear friend, between whom and ourselves
for many weary years there had been little
communication. We found him where we
sought hin-but there was guest at his
hearth we had not thought TO meet. Death
was there. In little back room, about
whose easement heavy pals were twncd to-.
gether, excluding the gay sunlight that lay
so loyelv upon the outer sill, there were two
cofins-one little and one large, And with
in these two collins, clothed in whlenrd raj.
ment there were two corpses, the one ,hat of
babe, in the same hour infancy and age
the grsndsire and his youngest darling had
broken away from the earth-anrhorage, and
drihed out upon the Stygian waves towards
,be Better Land.
II is often thus that the old and young 20
together TO their long home. Daily, almost,
we behold tie scylhe of the dark Reaper cut
,tiRg down alike :he growing flower and RI
Pened grain, gathering them in one sheaf in.
10 The upper garner. H., ofsll harvesters, is
the most remorseless, his the daily scythe
whose edge is never dull. Yet he tiat com.
missions the stern old Reaper doeih all
things well-and will make the dark things
clear and the crooked straight in that day,
when the scythe and the shroud together
81 oil be put away forever from the presence
Of the ransomed.
The old man and the babe were friends
each a treasure TO the other---durng life, and
in DEATH they were not divided. The same
bark bore them TO the pearIy stranG-the
same angel Id them through the golden gates !;
and now, over one ha:P they sing together
in Heaven.
