A Souvenir of the lU trcat from iJoxfow

On the 18th of October, 1812, Napoleon, accompanied by the Prince d'Eckmuhl, better known as Marshal Davoust, commanding the first divi sion, commenced that eventful retreat from Moscow, so disastrous to the immense army that had followed him. At the close of a tuarch that had been rendered more difficult by the state of the roads and continued raid, the Emperor arrived on tho the 23d at l?orowsk, and there passed the night, file next morning while indicating the order of march so ts to gain trec-

While sadly thinking on th« blighted hopes of his Emperor and mourning the sad fate of his brave companions, the attention of Davonst was arrested by the Toice of a soldier indifference, "you may charge me with who, covered with blood, and endeav-' such if you please, but I laugh at it.

The effect of the bullet had been such as to make amputation necessary, which the brave Pole bore with fortitude, the Prince remaining by his side dnrinp the operation. The wound being dressed, he embraced the sufferer, uud spoke iu tones of hope and encouragement and having recommended him to the eare of a few whom ho enuld ruiitide in. uioniitHd his horse to join the Krupi'iiir. who waited with

Already the two first divisions of the two first corps were in movement, when an officer, whom he had tent to inquire after the state of Koblinski, returned uud informed him that he still survived, arid with proper care might recover. The Marshal was overjoyed at this intelligence, hut he was perplexed as to the best means of conveying him to Smolensk, the wagons being in the rear, and already filled to excess. A sudden thought started to his miud, and placing himself in front of the forty eight regiment as they defiled, he addressed company of old grenadiers of the fust battalliou: "Grenadiers," eaid he, "Uiy Aides-de-camp, Colonel Kobliski, was yesterday -evefely wounded while showing you an example of courage and obedience.

It was sufficient for them that one of the most illustrious Marshals of tht Eipperor had said to them, "Tu your honor and bravery I confide my Aide-de-camp, you are to restore him to me." These words had acted as a tailsman, which had not lost its force under the pressure of misery, privation and even death.

"You are but a coward/' repeated the Pole in a feverish transport which shook the litter on which he lay. "Be calm, be calm, my Colonel, you know that the carbines of the Marshal have ere now taught the necessity of obedience. Why then do you wrong us by speaking these disagreeable things? TTowever.it is all equal to me, shall not reply to you." lie who had thus spoken nearly perished, with all his companions, in the passage of the Yoss. while endeavoring to protect the sacred deposit confided to them. Tbe waters of the torrent were within twenty-four hours changed into sharp and bristling masses of ice, and owiug to that circumstance but a few of the grenadiers reached the opposite bank. Some days subsequently, when Trigaud awoke after a few hours repose, he found that but four of hi3 companions survived, the others having perished from tho stupefying effects of the frost, a miniature of what the grea army was at that moment suffering, and which has left in the military annals of Napoleon such horrible reminiscenccs. Before the day closed, they distinguished, on the edge of the gloomy horizon, a line of houses, the route of which was marked by tho dead bodies left by the immeuse army which had preceded them. It was Smolensk, the laud of promise—where the things looked forward to as great luxuries might be procured—a fire, shelter, and a little bread A cry of joy escaped the five brave men who still supported the litter of Koblinski. Three, however, fell to rise no more when within sight of the town, a fourth soon after shared the same fate, and but one grenadier—Trigaud—was

now mamma being able to carry him he slowly dragged him along, and at length perceived some men at a distance, whom he called to his assistance. They soon camo to his aid, and he reached Smolensk in a few hours, after twenty-two days of fighting, fatigue and misery. He entered, it is true, the only survivor of his company, but he cared not. since he had redeemed the promise he made to the Prince it Eckmubl.

The next day Trigaud learned that the Marshal had arrived but a few days previously, and was then iu town, which prcseuted the appearance of ono vast hospital, protected by sentries, and extending to the suburbs. The skeletons of horses which had been converted into food were scattered in every street, and the doors and windows of the houses had long since been cousumed as fire-wood by the frozen and famishiug soldiery. It was in one of the houses in tho outskirts of the town that Prince d'Eckmuhl had es, tablished his quarters, and thither Trigaud, assisted by some soldiers, bore the insensible body of Koblinski and laid it on some straw in the doorway. On entering the house, ho perceived an officer on guard at an outer room, enveloped iu the ragged remains of a cuirassier's cloak, of whom he demanded to speak with the Marshal. "What seek you of him?" asked the officer without changing his posture. "I come to render an accouut ot a mission with which he charged me at

Moro-Jaroslavitz. and to deliver up the deposit confided to me.''

"The Prince is at this moment in council you can retnaiu and rest yourself until it is concluded."

A Balloon Fish—Huge Piscatorial Pirate —One Hundred Feet of Serpent—A Marine Wonder.

The monsters-of tbe air, forest and sea have been illustrated by such great authorities as Buffon, Cuvier and Agassiz. They have classified species, determined the purpose, characteristics and propensities of the lesser life, and have even gone so far a3 to express the belief that al! monsters of the past and present are kuown to the naturalist. The fallacy of this confidence is not only evident in the discovery of the fossil remains of the great hydrosaurus by Professor Waterhouse Hawkins, but also iu the appearance of a vast sea-serpent in American waters, off Cape Hatteras oil the 12th instant.

The schooner Saladin sailed from Jacmel, Hayti, with a cargo of eoppor bound for New York. On the 10th and 11th instant she had heavy weather but a3 the morning of the 12th dawned there were only light airs and a swelling sea. About six o'clock the Captain was on deck alone, his hands being below safely quartered in their bunks enjoying those visions that hover over heavy eyelids. The Saladin was now steering northwest, going along ai an easy pace, about tour knots an hour. Murky and fo^gydrabscured the brightness of the

As the Captain scanned the

te body of the Pole. Not horizon he descried what he cousid- self-respect yet left among the nht* ered to be a wreck on the starboard

beam, about five mile? distant bearing cast-northeast, lie immediately put down his helm and turned the Saladin's head to eastward, hoping to overhaul the object and render what assistance might be necessary. The Captain inserted his head into the cabin and called "All hands on deck.'" In a moment tho crew was upon its higher plane rubbing gravitating eyelids and curious between hope and fear.

The Saladin had few provisions on board, but was only seventy-five miles from Hampton Pioads. bearing southsoutheast, and the Captain, unlike the Bombay's Captain, thought of performing an office of humanity and save those who might be clinging to an ugly wreck. Progress was made toward the point of interest for a few minutes when it was plainly evideut that the Saladin was overhauling*:'

I felt a srent deal better and firmly beleivn that one or two occasions it was the means of saving and prolonzina my lite. I conscientiously recommended them to all stiffererj as the best Hitters known, and advise them always to ask for Dr. T. A. Hurley's and have no other. You can use this as yon think proper, if it will benefit other*, onr? tnilv etc. .„ JOHN W. mxo.N.

For curinu colic, removing pain, quieting restlessness, and rcleivins sick stomach, we havo found it in.ro efficacious than oil other remedies iwe have over used. It is very pleasant to tho taste, while most remedies for colic. tc.. are very nauseous. Another great merit that will commend itself to all parents is the ontire absence of tho stupifyinjj effects on tho the child, so common in the useof Uewoo's Mixture and other preparations we have used for similar diseases. Wo uio«t cordially'recommend it to all parents.

My object 111 writing you this is to find out upon what terms I can got the mcdicinc directly from you. If loan getiton easy terms. Ishallusa a great deal of it. I am awaro that tho uje of such artioles Is con* trary to tho teaching? and practieoof a great majority of tho regular line of M. D. s. but I can see no just causo or good «onse in discarding remedy which wo know to bo efficient, simply becau?*i we uiay bo ignorant of its combination.
