THE BURNING OF MOSCOW.
A Bl'LKNMB DESCRIPTION.
The following splendid description of On
burning of the Russian Capitol, is taken
from a work entitled, “ Napoleon and his
Marshals," by J. T Headley, just 2>ub-
li shed,
“ At Inngih Moscow with ils dome.*, ;m<l
fnwerx, ttmJ palaces, appeared In sight, and
Napoleon, who had joined ihe advance guard,
gazed long and thoughtfully on that goal of
his wishes. Mural went forward and enteied
the gates with his splendid cavalry, hut as he
passed through the streets, ho was struck with
the solitude that stitrounded him. Nothing
was heard but the heavy damp of his squa
drons as he pusied along, for a deserted and
abandoned city was the meagre price, for
which such unparalleled efforts had been
made. As night drew its curtain over the
splendid capital, Napoleon entered its gates,
and immediately appointed Mnrliergovernor.
In his directions he commanded him to ab
stain from all pillage. •• For this,” said he.
“you shall be answerable with your life. De
fend, Moscow against all, whether friend or
foc.“
The bright moon rose over the mighty city,
tipping with silver thn domes of more than
two bundled churches, and pouring a flood of
light over a thousand palaces, ami the dwell
ings of three hundred thousand inhabitants,
'flic weary arjny. sunk to rest, but there was
no sleep for Mortier's eyes. Not tho gorge
ous and,variegated palaces and the rich or
naments, nor the paiks and garden*, and
Oriental magnificence that every where sur
rounded him, kept him wakeful, but the
ominous foreboding that some dire calamity
was hanging over the silent capital. When
he cnterpdiit, scarcely n living soul tnel his
gaze as he looked down the long streets; ami
when he broke open the buildings, he found
prulorp and. bed rooms all furnished and in
'order, but no occupants. This sudden aba.,
doiiiueut, of their houses betokened some
secret purpose yet to be fulfilled. The mid
night moon was sailing over the city when
the cry ol “file!” reached, the eais of Mot-
tier; and the first light over Napoleon's fall
ing empire vtyis kindled, and that most won-
derails scone of modern times commenced.
Mortier, as governor of the city, immedi
ately issued his ot(]ers, and was pulling forth
every exertion, when at daylight Napoleon
hastened to him. Affecting to disbelieve the
reports that the inhabitants were firing their
own city, he pul more rigid commands on
Mortier, to keep the soldiers from the wotk
of destruction. Tit® Marshal simply point
ed to smug iron-covered houses that had not
yet been opened, from every crevice of which
smoke was issuing like steam from the sides
of a pent up volcano. Sad and thoughtful,
Napoleon turned inwards the Kremlin, the
ancient pajace of the Czars, whose huge
structure rose high above the surrounding
edifices.
Ill the morning. Mortier,by great exenions,
was enabled to subdue the fire. Hut the
next night, S»eptem|)nr 15th, at midnight, the
sentinels on watch upon the lofty Kremlin,
saw below theut the flames bursting thiougli
the houses and palacas, nud the cry of “ fire,
file !’’ passed through the city. Tho dread
scene was now fairly opened. Fiery balloons
w *ro seen dropping from the air and lighting
upon the houses; dull explosions were heard
on every side from the shut-up dwellings, nud
the next moment a bright light burst forth,
and the flames were raging through the apart
ments. The serene air and moonlight of the
night before, had given way to driving clouds
nud a wild tempest that swept with the roar
of ihe sen over the city. Flames arose on
eveiy side, blazing and cracking and crack
ling iu the storm, while clouds of smoke and
sparks in an incessant shower went driving
towardd. thn KrenUiu.^* The clouds them
selves turned into fur, rolling in wrath over
devoted Moscow. Mortier, crushed with
the responsibility thus thrown upon his
hliouldeis, moved with his Young Guard amid
this desolation, m, up the houses and
lacing the tempest and the flames—struggling
nobly to arrest the conflagration.
| He hastened from place to place amid the
I burning ruins, his fare blackened with the
smoke, and Ins hairande^e-brows singed with
(lie fierce hear. At length the day dawned,
a day of tempest and of flame, and Mortier,
w ho had strainod emery nerve for thirty six
hours, entered a palace and dropped down
Coni fatigue. The manly form and stalwait
arm that had so often carried death into thu
ranks of the enemy, at length gave way, and
the gloomy Marshal lay and panted in utter
exhaustion. Hut the night of tempest hnd
been succeeded by a day nf tempest, and
when night again enveloped the city, it was
one broad flame, waving :o and fro in the
blast. The wind had increased to a perfect
liiuricnne, shifted from quarter to quarter, as
if tut putpoae to swell the sett of fire and ex
tinguish their last hope. The fire was ap
proaching ilie Kremlin, and already tho roar
of ihe flames and crush of foiling houses,
nod the crackling of burning timbers, were
borne to the startled Fmperor. Ho arose
.ind walked to nnd fro, stopping convulsively
and gazing on the terrific scene. Murat,
Kugene and Herthier rushed into his pre
sence, and on their knees besought him to
flee; but he still clung to that haughty pal
ace, at if it were his empire.
Hut at length the shout, “ the Kremlin is
on fire!" was heard above the roar of the
conflagration and Napoleon reluctantly con
sented toleave. He descended into the street
with his staff, but the flames blockaded every
passage. At leogth they discovered n postern
gate leading to the Moskws, and entered it,
but they hud entered still farther into danger.
As Napoleon cast his eyes urotiud the opeo
space, gtrcMed sod arched with fire, smoke
and cioders, he taw one singlestreet yet opeo.

heard the tramp of thousands of Otralay
sweeping to battle without (ear; bat now thoy
stood in still (error before tha march of . con
flagration. under whose burning footstep, wa.
heard the incossant crash of falling horaos
and palaces nnd ehurohea. The eonlhmwue
roar of the raging hurricane, minaled with
that of the flames, was mote terrible lima
the thunder of artillery; and before this new
foe, in the midat of thie battle of (he ela-
ments. tho awe-itruck army stood powerless
and affrighted.
When night again descended on tha city,
il presented a apectacle the like of which was
never seen beforn, and whieh baffles all de
scription. The streets were street* of Are,
nnd the entire body of the city « mass of Are,
fed by a hurricane that whirled tho biasing
fragments in a constant stream through the
air. Inceasaut explosions from the blowing
up of atnresof oil. and tar, and spirits, shook
thn very foundations of the city, aod soot
vast volumes of smoke furiously towards tht
sky. Huge sheen of canvass on fir* came
floating like messengers of death through
the flames, the towers nnd domes of tba
churches and palaces glowing with a red hot
hent over the wild sen below, then totteriog
a moment on their hosts, wero hurled by the
tempest into the common s«ia- Thousands
of wretches, before unseen, were driven by
the licit from the cellar! and hovels, sod
streamed in an incessant throng through tho
streets. Childten were seen oarrying their
parents, the strong the weak; while thousands
more wets staggering under the loads Of
plunder they Imd snatched from tho flsmra.
Tlti-, loo, would frequently lake Are in the
falling shower, and the miserable erestarei
would be compelled to drop il and flee for
their lives. Oh, it was a scene of woa sod
fear inconceivable and indescvibable. A
mighty nnd close packed city of houaee, sod
churches and palaces, wrapped from limit to
limit in flames, which is fed by a whirling
hurricane, is a sight this world will seldom
see.
But this was all within Ihe city. To Na
poleon without, the apectacle waa Still more
sublime and terrilic. When the flame, had
overcome all obstacles, and had wrapped eve
ry thing lit their red mantle, that great city
looked like a sea of rolling Are awept by a
tempest that drove it into vaat billows.' Hog.
domes and lowers throwing off sparks like
blazing Ate brands, now disappearing in their
maddening flow, as they rushed and broil,
high over their tops, scattering their spray
nf Are against lire clouds. The heaven,
themselves seemed to have caught the con
flagration, and the angry masses that swept
it rolled over a bosom uf fire. Columns of
llatnc would rise and sink along the eurfece
nf the aea, and huge volumes of black amoke
suddenly shoot into the air, as if volcanoee
were working below. The black form af lbs
Kremlin nlune lowered above the chine, now
wrapped inflame and smoke again emerging
into view-standing amid this acens of desola
tion and tenor, like virture in the midst of a
hit ruing world, enveloped but unscathed by
the devnuiiiig elements. Napoleon stood
and gazed on the scene in silent awe. Though
nearly three miles distant, the windows aod
walls of his apartment were so hot that bs
could scarcely bear his hand against them.
Said lie, yenis afterward:
“ It was I lie spetacle of the sea and billows
of fire, a sky aud clouds of flame, like im
mense wave, of the aea. alternately bursting
forth and elevating themselves to skies of Are,
and then sinking into the ocean of flame be
low. Oil, it was the mast grand, the most
sublime, and the most terrific sight Ihe world
ever beheld

The lay-sermonizing Dow Junior, describes
life at twenty, in the following unique man
ner :
•• My friends—at twenty we are wild, wild
as patridges. There is no such thing as lam
ing us; we ride the fierce, fiery, and head-
strong animal, I’assion, over, fences, dilehts,
hedges, and nn to ihe devil—leap the flve-
hurred gate of reason, without touching the
curb of discretion, or pulling harder then a
tit-mouse upon the strong rein of judgment.
O, at twenty you ate perfect lucoinctivss,
gning it nt the tale of sixty miles an hour:
your heart is the boiler—lore is the steam,
which you sometimes bluw off in sighs—sod
hops, fear, uoxieiy, nnd jealousy, are the train
that you drag. At this season of life, yon
are filled with the exhilerating gee of ro
mance : everything lo you looks romantic by
spells—even a jackaaa philosophising over a
barrel of vinegar. You (both girli aud boys,)
now read novel* till your gixzards hare soften
ed into a sentimental jelly, and settled into
the pit of your stomach. ’ O, I know how
you teel!—you feel as though vou. would
like to soar from star lo star! kick littla plan
ets aside—take crazy comets by their bill
ing hair, and piilltheminto the right course;
sit upon Ihc-highcst peak of a thunder-cloud
and dangle the red lightning between your
thumb' mill finger*, as a watch-chain—then
drive intis the gulden sunset aea, and spurt
with the celestial syrens—apeed on, pull the
nose of the black-guard in the moon—ran
sack all creatiun—knock a few panes out of
thn windows of heaven—nnd then flutter
down as gently ns a breeze, and find the dar
ling object of your love mending neckings by
moonlight I—That's how you feel."

lure no feeling for colored people in Ohio,
and if the Legislature refuse lo grant his
petition, he will submit to the penally of re
