If any thing can be more horrible than a soldier's life, it certainly is a soldier's death.

Six or eight times while I stood upon the street watching the wounded, there came along squads of prisouers taken at various stages of the action. Sometimes there were only three or four—then twenty, fifty, or a hundred, and in one company over four hundred. They walked closely together, six or eight deep—the officers being generally in the middle—and were guarded by a single file of troops walking on each side. As a general thing they were not bad looking men. Very many of them were very youDg, not over sixteen certainly.

and there was a silent expectati^.prevalent among all classes, a sentiment: which, although it was .seldom spoken, amounted to almost a conviction, that the event must be what the event has been. The certainty with which the Austrians had been forced back made us reflect even while we admitted. We had already recognized in the comparatively small affairs of Montebello, Palestro, and Magenta the knell of that Austrian system, which was put before us as a pattern to Europe of what a highly disciplined army ought to be, and which was adduced as an example of how vast and irresistible a force a greatly military monarchy could produce in the field. This great machine has been exhibited in perfect action, and it had proved its capabilities it could endure slaughter with an inflexible discipline, it could retire with unbroken ranks, it was orderly in retreat, and it was calm in disaster it waspcrfect for every purposeexcept only for that which is alone the purpose of an army—it could not win a battle against an enterprising antagonist. These are the conclusions which we had all arrived at. from an attentive observation of the Austrian power as wielded against the force of its great military rival. The conviction has now received its confirmation in a vast and decisive trial. Since the three days of Leipsic, now six and forty years ago, so great a battle has never been fought in Europe as that which only seventy hours since cumbered the plains of Lombardy with dead. Imagination toils in vain to realize the story of more than 300,000 men engaged in mortal conflict over an area the front of which extended 12 miles.

operation upon the battle-fields of Europe by the strange net-work of circumstances, met for tbe first time at the international dinner given by George N. Sanders iu London, W54, to Mr. Buchanan and the European Republican leaders. How far from seeming possibility then was their present conjunction ia the fierce earthquake which is again rocking Europe, and in which Napoleon III is so mysteriously an agent! The career of those great men then seemed buried now, it is alive again. The memorable past links itself to the present, and draws on a future^ 'In the tangling complications of tbe hour, who shall prophesy its character?

In the course of the splendid conversation which'flashed between the great spirits gathered together on that unique occasion, Kossuth's eloquence became the theme of eulogy. Rising with modest grace Kossuth replied, ever elegant and appropriate in the social.hour as he is grand and persuasive on public occasions. At the close of his response he exclaimed, with electric earnestness, "Gentlemen, would you know what* I think tbe most eloquent speech of modern times?" He repeated iu impressive tones the words—"Soldiers! for the love you bear your country I offer you war, hunger, thirst, cold and death.—Who accepts the terms let him follow me!" "There is the orator!" he said, waving his hand towards him, whose interpid impetuosity now again rings through the world. Garibaldi, taken by surprise, was for a few instants quite overcome with emotion, but he mastored himself and made a beautiful and soldierly reply.

Housed by this touching incident, the devoted Orsini followed in a speech of characteristic passion and depth. More resembling the ancient Athenian than his Roman ancestors, his emphatic but chaste delivery recalled tho great principal of Demosthenic oratory—action. A model of youthful manhood, with a brilliant dark eye and a fascinating smile, Orsini, although he had already suffered in loathsome dungeons, showed no trace of it in face or person, lie was a Romeo, to captivate more fastidious Juliets than Shakspearc's heroine.

In the great comesi which ensued—a con'est for self-government and for the equal rights of man—perils were encountered and sufferings endured, which we, calmly enjoying their fruits, remember, with gratitude to the men who toiled for us, with fealty to the principles which they proclaimed.

The struggle was long and unequal and when the enemy succeeded in gaining possession of New York the timid began to falter, All eyes were now turned to Europe. Delegates bad been already dis. patched to seek the assistance of France, and their hopes were not disappointed.-— One million of francs were given from the French treasury, cannon and military stores furnished from the arsenals of France, other stores to tbe value of a million of dollars placed in colonial ports accessible to our vessels, and a series of friendly acts commenced, which, on the 6th of I?ebrudry, 1778 was continued in a treaty of alliance, and in a declaration by which France bound herself to make no peace with England until the independence of the United States was fully rcocgnized.
