Bonapate at lisa outset had his columns—con verged to a point—resting on ono ond of the Dan ubc, nnd radiating oil’ into the field like the spokes of a wheel. Tho Austrians, on the contrary, ismi-circle, as if about to enclose and swallow up (heir enemy. Mucdonnld’s divis ion was among tbe first brought into tho engage ment, and bravely hold its ground during the day. When night closed the scene of strife, the Austri ans had gained on the French. They neverthe less sounded a retreat, while ihe exhausted army of Napoleon lay down on the fluid of blood to sleep. Early in the morning, the Austrians, taking ad vantage of their success the Jay before, comtnctic. ed the attack, and the thunder of their guns at day light brought Napoleon into his saddle. The field was again alive will, charging squadrons, and cov cred with the smoke of battle. From daylight till Hourly noon had the conflict raged without a mo ment’s cessation. Every where except against the Aus’riau’s left, tiie French were defeated. From the steeples of Vienna, the multitude gazed on the progress of the doubtful fight, till they heard the cheers of their countrymen above the roar of battle, driving tho flying enemy before them, when they shouted in joy, and believed the victory gamed. But Napo leon galloped, nnd restoring order in the disordered lines, ordered Dnvoust to make a circuit, nnd as cending the plateau of Wagram. carry Neusiedal. While wailing the result of this movement, on the success of which depended all his future operations tho Frencit lines, under Nupolcnn’s immediate charge were exposed lo a most terrific fire from the enemy’s artillery, which tore them into fragments. Unable to advance, and too distant to return the tire, they were compelled to stand as idle specta tors, and see the cannon shot plough through them. Whole bnttallions, driven frantic by this inaction in the midst of such a deadly fire, broke nnd fled.— deuce of victory, at nightfall were cro wded and t But every thing depended on the infantry holding picked in the little island ofLobau.

H< | freshen llie remembrance. Suddenly thciro was a MCDONALD'S CHARGE AT WAGRAM. We copy tho following description of Macdun- tld’tCharge a*. Wagram, from the July number of ^American Review. But it is at Wagram that wo are to look fo'r Mac- donald’s greatest deed. We never think of that terrific battle without feelings of the profoundcst sonder at his desperate charge, that then an d tJiere lived Napoleon and the empire. The battle of Aspern had proved diaaslrious to the French. The mmoitefforts of Napoleon could not wring viettory from the hands of the Austrians. Masseua had nood under a tree while the boughs were era siting tilhcannon halls over head, and fought as never even Ac fought before. The brave Lamies hud been mangled by a cannon shot, and died while tho notorious guns of the enemy were still placing on hit heroic, hut flying column, and the fr agments of the magnificent army that had in the morning mov- 1 •dfrom the Banks of the Danube in a.II the confi- itself, as in this critical period of his life. He re vived the drooping spirits of his soldiers by pres. •nti from his own hands, he visited in person the lick in the hospital, while the most gigantic plans it die same time, strung his vast eater g ies to their utmost tension. Front the latter part of May to the 1st of July, he had remained ccope d up in this little island, but not inactive. He find done every thing that could be done oil the spot while orders bid been sent lo the different armies to I tnslen to his ! relief.—At two o’clock in the afternoon of tho se cond of July, the reinforcements hep’an to pour in. I and never tvas there such nn exhibitii in of skill and promptitude with which orders had been issued and | carried out. At two o’clock in the afternoon the different armies from all quarters .first began to I come in, and before the next night tbs *y liad nil ar rived, First with music and streaming'banners np. peered the columns of Dernadolte hastening from tbs banks of the Elbe, carrying joy to t he despund- ing henna of Napoleon’s army. They had hardly reached the field before llie stirring nines' of the bugle, and the mil of drums in another q nortcr, an nounced the approach of Vandamme from the pro. vinces of the Rhine. Wrcde came next from the banks of the Lech with his strong Bavaria ns, while the morning sun shone on Macdonald’s victorious | troops,milling down from Illyria and the Al pine tommita, to nave Bonaparte and the Empire'.— I Aithe hold Scotchman reined his steed up beside I Nipoleon,and pointed back to his advancing col umn, he little thought that two days after the fate | of Europe waa to turn on his single will. Scarce- King uf Persia, he slowly rode backward and for ward before the lines, wliilo the cannon balls whis tled and rattled like halo-stones about him—casting ever and anon anxious looks towards the spot where Dnvoust was expected to appear with his fifty thoiiSSiid b.ntve followers. For a whole hour he thus rode in front of his men, ana thougit they expected every moment to see him shattered by a cannon ball, its moved unscathed amid the storm. At length Davoust was seen charging like fire over the plateau of Wagram, and finally appeur with his cannon on the further side of Nuusiednl. In a moment the plateau was covered with smoke as ho opened his cannon on the exposed ranks of the ene- my. A smile lighted up Napoleon’s countenance, and tiie brow that had been knit like iron during tho terrific strife of the two hours before, as word was constantly brought him of his successive losses, and the steady progress of the Aus'riane—oluared up, and he ordered Macdonald with eight battallions, to march straight on the enemy’s centre, and pierce it. This formed the crisis of the battle, and no sooner did the Archduke seo the movement of this terrible column of eight butinllions, composed of sixteen thousand men, upon ids centre, than he knew that the hour of Europe’s destiny and Ids own army had come. He immediately doubled the lines at the threatened point, and brought up tho reserved cavalry, while two hundred cannon were wheeled nround the spot on which such destinies hung, and opened a terrific fire on the approaching column. Macdonald immediately ordered a hun- dred cannon to precede him, and answer tho Aus. lywere his troops arranged in their appointed | ,r ‘*n batteries that swept every inch of ground plice,before the brave Marmount appears d with t Lke u storm of sleet. The caunoniers mounted {limning bayonets and waving plumes fro m the ; their horses, nnd starting on a rapid trot with their l “ J - hundred pieces,approached within a half cannon shot, and opened a destructive fire on the enemy’s ranks. VVith this battery at its head, belching foi-lli fire like some huge monster, tho mighty col. umn steadily advanced. Tho Austrians fell back, and closed in on each other, knowing that the final struggle had come. At this crisis of (lie buttle, I borders of Dalmati. Like an oxhaustless stream, the magnificent columns pouring into that little isle, *hile, to crown tho whole, Europe came with his wieratu from the plains of Hungary.

Out of sixteen ihoutant men with which he started but fifteen hundred nr< left betide him. Ten out of every eleven have fal len. nod lice at length tiie tired hero pauses, uin surveys with a stern und anxious eye his fow re maiding followers. The heart of Bonaparte stopi beating at the sight, and well it may, for his throm was where Macdonald stands. Ho bears tho Em pire on his single bruve heart—he is the Empibe. Shull he turn at last, und sound the retreat 1 The Empiro totters on the ensanguined field, for, like t* speck in the distance, Macdonald is seen still b puuso, while llie cnniion are piling the dead in heupi around him. “Will ho turn at last ?” is tho secret ond agonizing question Napnleun puts tn himself, —“must my throne go down I” No ! he is worthy of the mighty trust committed in him. Tlte Ein. pire stands or falls with him, hut shall stand whilu he stands. Looking away to where his Emperor sits, lib sees a movement as if aid were at hand.— “Onward,’’ breuks front his iron lips. Tho roll ol drums und the pealing of trumpets answer tiie vol. ley that smites that exhausted column, and the next moment it issoen piercing tho Austrian cen- tro. The day is won—the Empiro saved—and tho whole Austriannriny is in full retreat. Such was the awful buttle of Wugram, ond such the charge of Macdonald. We know of nothing equal to it except Ney’s charge at Waterloo, and that was not equal, for it failed. A MODERN “MARRIAGE OF CONVENI ENCE.” An Eastern correspondent, in a gnssipping epis tle to the Editor, gives us this little episode in his personal history.

I habit as I am editorially of paying nothing for the same commodity—certainly made me say 'chum !’ The sear J got for this little price was in the mid dle of llie first bench behind tiie orchestra, in the pit—that i s lo say in one of the “stalls” or elbow seats into which the first four or five benches of the pit are divjdod, “The pit”so called, which F sep arated by a b.xr from these privileged seats,is so uncomfortalde nnd crowded, that, in my weak con dition, I could i lot venture it, especially with the riskol standing’all the evening. So away went the price of—ma ny n good thing you can think of! If I had been cha rged for the moisture of the En glish climate bee. a use my hair curls tighter here than in Americ.a, I should not have fell more like scratching my head after the payment. No one is ndmitte d to tho London opera except in full dress, hut I took' my cloak on my urrn, fear ful of the draft of col d air that comes over tiie warm pit when the cut'lain is lifted.

You have seen the accounts of tho arrival some limn since, of young Bonaparte, to take possession of Uordmitnivn, the former residence ami property of Joseph Bonaparte. Mr. Maillard, the old secre tary of tile Ex Kitig. ond his son, reside tit lloiden- totvn, ttiiit tiie young Prince Cunino, us his title. There is quite a romantic inciueni dcpneeietl with this, for tiie truth of which you may safely rely. Pile estate of Bmdentotvn was bequeathed to (lie young prince, with the exception of a comfortable •arm which was left to Maillard. But the father of Cunino resolved that lie should not tuke posses sion of his property. Fearing that through his prodigality tho estate would he squandered, or wishing to bold it in his otvn hands for his own use, lie resolved to detain the young prince in Italy. Tiie son, having derived his title of Prince Cunino Iroin the Papal States, tiie father had control over !>•* person in those states, and could by the laws of the kingdom imprisoned him there till lie was ttvon- ly-five years of nge.

Finding himself locked in on every side the young prince gave himself up to despair, and awaited tiie day when lie should bo carried to the Papal States and be shut up in the w u ;ls ofa prison. But young Maillard in the tn^an time was active for his friend though ail hi.s efforts seemed abortive. At length hut one day was left in witiclt to escape before tho fnihor should take llm son lo prison. Almost in despair young Maillard hastened lo Leg horn mid there to his great joy found a Swedish vessel ho,end for New York. Jumping into a car riage no hurried back to Florence, and dressing hirnselt in female apparel (a sign agreed on be tween tho two when Alaillurd wrote him.) sent a note to tiie young prince saying a female wished lo see him. Hastening to a by.street lie found bis friend awaiting him who told him of tiie Swedish vessel that wus to sail next morning for New York. Tiie prince needed no urging but instantly jumpi g into the carriage with Maillard, drove with all speed to Leghorn, where they arrived a littio after daylight. The vessel was to sail in two hour.!, and aboard of that miserable craft with its miserable accommodations tho young prince tvas ''U'd, and uppropriator.—Southern Patriot. STANZAS; BV R. H. WILDE.
