Immense as were the losses OF the
French. those Of the Russians were Tar
greater. The mortality In battle vastly
exceeded that Of the French, and the
deaths from hunger were innumerable
During the advance Of the French, the
Cossaeks, as already stated, burned tue
cities and towns, and devastated the
country, ia order that the invaders
might tell the story During the retreat
the French burned everything behind
them to prevent pursuit Over 800 cities
and villages were thus totally destroyed

OF the finest provinces in the empire
were ruined, and their inhabitants driven

died Of privation, and the same
proportion was true Of other
places. It was computed that from

He hurried home to raise another army
and renew the war. To oppose him
merciless conscription was ordered in
Russia to obtain troops. The heads Of
families were taken away. only sons did
not escape, and during the following
season no crops were sOwn in the deyas-
tated country. The famine continued.
There we're no relief committees In those
days; there were no railroads, no contri-
buttons from the benevolent Of Europe,
for Europe was still busy with the war.
Masses Of dead bodies on the Beresina,
before SmOlensk, on the M0skwa near
BOrodino, and along the line Of retreat,
brought pestilence IN its worst form.
Thousands Of Russian peasantry died;
just how many there are no means Of
knowing, but It is computed that In the
years 1912, 1913 and 1914, in consequence
Of the French invasion and its result
ing woes, over 100000 Russians per-
ished
Such a calamity has no parallel in
Europe or Western Asia since the days
Of Tamerlane and Genghis Khan, and
the fact that the Russians look from
their present misfortune back 10 the
starving years Of the French invasion
sufficiently indicates the nature and ex-
tent Of the present terrible misfortune.
