MURAT in RUSSIA.

When Napoleon rushed back to Paris as
fast as horses could draw him in order, that
he might himself tell the story of his dis
comfture, he thought fit to select the
King Of Naples, from among all his MAR
shsls. to take the command of the retreat
ing force. As was usual with him. ne
thought out everything that was likely to
happen, and left Murat instructions accord
ingly. No man, perhaps, ever more pa
tiently provided for the prosecution OF a
design, or took more careful account OF the
probable accidents which might supervene;
but when he had once taken this trouble
he expected not only that his omcers
would minutely conform to directions, but
also that nature, accident, every clrcum-
stance, should keep strictly within therange
of his provision; and he was fearfuly angry
if things took an unexpected turn ana
he invariably vented his wr"th upon some
officer, although it tmay have been the ele-
ments or the outfall of events that dlsap-
pointed him. It was Murat's supreme ILL.,
fortune that Immediately after the En-
peror's departure December 5th) the ther-
mometer descended to point unprece-
dented at that season, and rendered the
execution of his orders impossible. There
were 27 degrees q presume of the Cent?
grade thermometer) of frost. So far were
the wretched forces from having at length
surmounted the extreme horrors OF the re-
treat, that at Wilma all the horrors recon-
menced in an aggravated degree. A dlvl-
sion of 10000 men was in eight days re-
duced to 5000 without having seen an
enemy or received q stroke save from the
elements. In one night all the artillery
horses we're frozen to death, as they stood,
with their harness on, and just as they had
stood in life. Half the drivers died of cold
the same night; the other half came to put
their horses IN motion, could not stir them,
and at last found they were all dead. BE-
fore retreat could be continued the Russian
cannon was heard in the rear. Murat him
self seemed to care as little for cold as for
cannon-shot. He turned out at the first
hint Of danger from the enemy, and he
would have led on in the same gallant style
as ever: but nine-tenths of his miserable
force were paralyzed by the cold. Their
arms literally dropped from their hands.
The few exceptionally hardy men who
could still move fled as they best could,
leaving their comrades to the mercy of the
winter and the enemy. These frost-bitter
wrsthes we're stripped, and in various
ways afflicted by Cossacks and Others
The eneny was never y hours march be
hind the rear-guard, Ney,) and there wa'
neither rest nor refreshment for days. Ar
tillery, baggage, and the imperial treasure
were abandoned. Except that they still tool
with them few horses, nothing remained
to the survivors the tatters and arm
which they carried. The line of the tgh
was covered with corpses, and with cold
stricken beings who had laid down neve
to rise again. These details are in tn
highest degree horrible, and it is pain
dwell upon them; but it is right that W
should sometimes mediate on scenes hk
these, and not exclusively on the ''prld'
pomp, and circumstance of glorious war. y
