But the interior of the carriage was useless, while now 1 was sare there was a struggle going on inside.-- Directly afier, one of the little side panes of glass was broken, and I heard.a faint cry, : 1.dashed in the door window in instant, pide } dnd ther'besting out the a and bad Lalf my body in be fore I felt myself sei some One who tried to force me back. Two hands held me by the throat, while I grasped the door with one hand, half in and half out of the car- riage. My blood was up, I had hold of my unseen coemy by the col- lar, and I dug my knuckles into his neck as I held on for life like a dog. I bad the advantage of him there, for, while I had on a stiff collar and buttoned up uniform coat, he had only a thin dress shirt collar and ene of those black whisps of ties. It was a struggle for life and death with me, but I got further in. At last, I suppose feeling half-choked, he started back and drew me with him, so that I fell heavily on the floor. Here, though, 1 lost my hold, and he had me again at a d'sadvantage. For what seemed a good five minutes, it was an up and down struggle, for more than once I felt myself dashed against somebody who was crouch- ing in a corner of the carriage. Sometimes I got the better and sometimes the worst off. After the struggle had been going on for some time, it seemed that the far door was open, and that there was no one else in the carriage but us two, hanging on to one another like a pair of wild beasts. Then came such a horrible reaction that my strength seemed to leave mejor I felt that in her fear and dread the poor girl had leaped out. But she had not for she was outside cliaging for life to the handles, as in one brief glance I saw by the end light of thé train flashing upon her.-- In a last fierce struggle my foot trip- ped, and the man I was struggling with fell headlong out of the door.-- There was a flash of light, the sound of rushing wind, and then I secmed to be dashed with fearful violence uponithe. The. next thing I recollect is the sound of voices, and the hissing of an engine close by me, while two or three people were mov- ing about with lanterns. I found some one supporting ny head--and then I gave a shudder, for there were horrible red patches and marks on the white ground. As the men spoke in whispers I could see they were collecting together something horrible that steamed in the cold air. A mist came over me, and I faioted dead away. When ¥ could think again, I found that I had been in London hospital and was lyigg there in a ward, look- ing at a pair of soft white hands that didn't seem to belong to me, while ry head felt cool through my hair being cut off. Bat I got stronger every day, and soon I had visitors to see me ; and one face that came, and used to leen over my poor bare pallet was, as it were, the face of an angel--so sweet 30 loying, and so tendet.in its com- passionate look ; and once, while the old lady stood back, two tiny. soft hande 'smbothed my pillow, and a tear felkon my cheek, as a voice whispered: + God bless you, my brave preserv- er. 1 shut my eyes then, and trembled for there was a bitter feeling of sor- row came over me; and in spite of those tender woide, I seemed to be standing on the' brik of a great gulf, far away from her.

Nothing was further from Bonaparte's wishes or expectations than the bringing of his reserve into the en- gagement at this early stage of the battle, but there was no other resource left him. Murat sustained his high reputs- tion on this occasion, and proved himself, for the hundredth time, worthy of the great confidence Na- poleon placed in him. Nothing could be more imposing than the battlefield at this moment. Bona- parte and the Empire trembled in the balance, while Marat prepared to lead down his cavalry to save them.

Bat as he saw those seventy squad- rons come down on a plunging trot, pressing hard after the white plume of Murat, that streamed in the snow storm far in front, a smile passed over his counteoance. The earth groaned and trembled as they passed, and the sabres; above the dark angry mass below, looking like the foam of a sea-wave, as it crests on the deep. The rattling of their armor, and the muffled thunder of their tréad, drowaed all the roar of battle, as with fifm set array, and swift steady motion, they bore dower with terrible front on the foe. The shock of that immense host was like a falli fountain, and the frontline of the Russian afmy went down like frost work before it. Then commenced a protracted fight of hand to band, and sword to sword, as in the cavalry agtion at Ackmubl. The slashing of stecl was like the ringing of countless hammers, and horses and riders were blended in wild confusion together : the Russian reserve was ordered up, and on these Murat fell with his fierce horsemen, crushing and trampling them down by thousands. Bat the obstinate Russians disdained to fly, and rallied again and again, so that it was no lodger cavalry charging ou infantry but the squadross of horses gallopi through broken hosts; that B thoted into knots, still disputed, with unpar- od bravery, thered and rent field. t was during this st fight that Mutat was seen to po one of those desperate" deeds which he hid 80 Mead. ia hs the highest pitch of passion t obstacles that oppoded hint, he seem- ed endowed with tenfold strength and looked more like a soperhtiman being treading down helpless mor- tals, than an ordinary man.
