The flow of blood aud from the lungs had some

was recovered ard 1t was lucky was not in it, for
il bore marks Of probing OF no friendly cha Iacter
by lance and sword. Tod Brown sfter~ard told me
Lat some Of the sowas came mp within 2 few yards
Of bis guns and that fellow was shot when wltnn
ten feet OF heavy piece Of siege ordnance, which he
seemed eternined to spike. The MooltSnee morse
were wheeled round and cent ous to meet tue sowars

sone of them turned and Tomb, who had come up az
gallop was obliged TO FIRE into mas, of moJaoees
ald SOW ara who all coming tell-mell o2e her
upon bis guns. This, and the sight Of the CaronesrS
bearing Gown them, rapidly seat the sowars lying
10 the ghtabout; but the panic produced by their
demonstration was very great and almost as soon as
the first was over L believe second took place.
TIE eun was eorg down we were moved for
ward for about half mile and there, bare sandy
plain, was small tent pitched for Sr Colin, aud
t~o three pail and servants tents for the otcers
put into my own pail. Scarcely was placed IN
the cbsrpoy Sir Colin came In, and, having head
what had happened, congratulated me on tho escape
from aun and sowar and proceeded to give details
Of what hso occurred. He complained We y much of
want of info nation. When he thought he was out
eide Barelly he in reality only outside the rained
cantonments, some miles from the city proper. Tne
enemy were Sill in the city. They had fallen back,
ard il was too late TO pursue them or to make an
attempt to enter the place. The men were quite ex-
bausted They had suffered fearfuly from su1stroke.
Sir Colin described the charge of the CAGES viviily.
Just at this moment Walp0e cams in with q bloody
handkeIcbief round his hand lie had d narrow es-
cape from the Gszees and was nearly ont to pieces
under Sir C,in's eyes. The General eat takiog with
the Chief for tme and then Cameron OF the 42d
came into my tent to add his narrative OF very mar
ROY shsye indeed, for the GsZees dragged him from
bic horse, his revolver in the holster bis sword
fell OF the scabbard rs he was pulled to The ground,
and but for tho eooiness and courage OF two three
OF his own men he would have been hacked 70 pieces
IN a moment. Of the Gazees bu. one or two escaped.
LanguiJy and drowsily j listened TO all this; ell
worldly slairs for the time seemed Of little conse.
queDce 70 was thinking OF home.
The doctors came in at last, Tice and Mackin1on.
They saw me-9ithdrow, consulted in Whispers l
can remember so well their figures they stood az the
door Of the PAIL thrown into lark sbade By the bazog
bvouac' fires No tents were pitched the soldiers
10y down ia their blankets or without them the
sandy Tain. TIE cavalry stretched themselves by
their borYes and the artillery lay among their guns.
Strong pckets sui patrols were posted all round the
camp. Ere went 10 seep for the night was ancint-

aJCplexy, brought by the tunstroSe or neat; aud
thst in fact my two fie.ds had DO expectation of my
being alive next morning Such is my recollection
and experience Of the Battle Of Bareily
