Incident of it Haute.
Some English gnordsmen who were in the
battle of Waterloo, related to Hayden, the
painter, the following anecdotes of the thickest
of the fight. They present war in all its hor
rors :
The description of the men was simple, char
acteristic and poetical. They said that wheu
the life guards anil cuirasscrs met, it was like
the ringing of ten thousand blacksmiths’ anvils.
One of them knew my models, Sliaw and Da
kin. He saw Dakin, while fighting, on foot
with two cuirassiers, also ou foot, divide both
their heads with cuts five and six. He said
Dakin rode out, foaming at the mouth, and
cheered on his troops. In the evening he saw
Dakin lying dead cut in pieces. Dakin sat to
me for the sleeping groom on his knees in Mac
beth.
Another saw Shaw fighting with two cui
rassiers at a time. Shaw, he said, always
cleared his passage. He.saw him take an
eagle, but. lost it afterwards; as when any man
got an eagle, all t\pc troops near him on both
sides, left off fighting, and set on him who had
the eagle. He went on himself very well, hut
riding too far, was speared by a lancer, and
fainted away. .Recovering, lie sat upright,
when three or four lancers saw him, rode at
him and speared him till they thought him
dead. He remembered nothing till revived by
the shaking as they carried him to the yard of
La Haye Sainte. 'lilieve he heard some one
groaning, and turning arouud, and saw Shaw,
who said: “I am dying; my side is torn oil' by
a shell.” His comrades told us bow lie had
swooned away, and bciug revived by their ta
king him up to be carried to Brussels at day
break, he saw poor Shaw dead, with Ills cheek
in his haud.
Corporal Webster, of the second life guards,
jaw Shaw give his first cut. As he was get
ting down the rising ground in the hollow road
a cuirassieur waited and gave point at his bel
ly ; Shaw parried the thrust, and before the
Frenchman recovered,-cut him right through,
“his brass helmet to his chin, and his face fell
olT him like a bit of apple.”
Another, Hodgson, (a model, ami the finest
of all, standing six feet four inches, a perfect
Achilles,) charged up to the French baggage.
He saw artillery driver boys of sixteen crying
on their horses. In coming back, a whole
French regiment opened and let him pass at
full gallop, and then closed and gave him a
volley, and never hit him or horse.
The first man who stopped him was an Irish
man in the French service. He dashed at
him, and said, “D—n you, I'll atop your crow-
ing.” Hodgson said he was frightened, he had
never fought anybody with swords. W.itehiug
the cuirassieur, however, he found he could
not move his horse so quickly as lie could; so.
letting go the reins, and guiding his horse with
his knees, as the cuirassieur gave point at his
throat, Hodgson cut his sword hand off, and
dashed his sabre through his throat, cutting it
round and round. The first cut he gave him
was on the cuirass, which he thought was sil
ver lnee. The shock nearly broke his arm.—
“D—n me," lie added, “now 1 have found out
the way, I soon gave it them.” As Hodgson
rode back, after being fired at, an officer en
countered him. Hodgson cut his horse at the
naps, and, as it dropped dead, the officer’s
helmet rolled off, and Hodgson saw a bald
head and white hairs. The officer begged for
mercy, but at that instant n troop of lancers
was aproacliing at the gallop, so Hodgson
cleaved bis head in two with a blow and es
caped. The recollection of the white hairs he
told us pained him often. Before he got back
to the British lines a lancer officer charged
him, and missing his thrust came right ou
Hodgson and his hors.;. Hodgson got clear
and cut his head o;T at the neck, at one blow,
and the head dropped on his haversack, where
lie kept the blood stain.
Goon Mo it Nino.”—Everybody says “good
inorniug” in New York till—after dinner. The
higher the eirelc a man moves in, the later he
dines, and the longer he says “good morning.”
This salutation is a sort of sliding seale of
peoples precise position, the lower it runs the
higher he stands. The man wlio says good
evening” to yon at exactly one minute past 12
City Hall time, is down to O—zero. Depend
upon it, he works for a living; he foots it down
town, mornings, and carries lus dinner in a
small tin pail with a young tin pail inverted
iqum the top of it. The sun reports himself
nut more regularly at the meridian, than that
man’s appetite.
There’s another that bids you “good morn
ing,” and all the bells, little and big, have toll
ed, struck and rung two o’clock. He’s “well
to do,” and well fed—and dines at half-past—
steps gently into the omnibus—tare six cents—
and is set down somewhere, to walk gently a
few steps, ami iu a chair with anus and cush
ions, meditating ministers to “the inner man.”
There comes one at six full past, who says
“good morning” still. He's up to 212 degrees
on the scale, the very boiling point of respec
tability.
And theve, on the curb-stone side of the
walk, steals a poor devil, who for the matter
of dining is not on the scale at all. He utter
dines ; he could say “good morning” all day
long, were there any such thing in his Alman
ac, or any “inquiry” for beggar.-’ wishes.—
The thermometer doesn’t go up into his cir
cle; the tube isn’t long enough ; water vapor
izes before it gets there, as at seven p. u., he
stauds at one of the Park gates, hat iu hand,
for a copper, and murmurs its you scowl at
him on bumble, depreeaorv “good morning.”—

A sea captain, “down East,” relates tlie
subjoined as one of his fishing experiences :
I luce with a friend be went out to catch hal
ibut. His comrade prided himself on bis skill
in the bnsiness, and a rivalry arose between
the two friends ns to which should capture the
first fish. Having dropped anchor and lines,
they waited with fisherman's patience for a
bite; hut for a long time none came. At
length the countenance of the captain’s com
panion began to lighten up; and presently he
called out—
“ I’ve got one!” He commenced hauling in
with great vigor,
said he, “a huudred pound fellow, at least
He pulls stoutly, I tell you!”
It was, indeed, evident that a big fellow was
at the other end of the line; and it xvas soon
discovered that it was to be no easy matter to
capture him.
“ 1 must let him run, ” said he, “and tire
him out!”
Accordingly he gave him line, which was
carried off rapidly. Soon the excited fisher
man began to haul iu again, milking sure of
his victim this time.
**■ “ Stand by, captain !” said he, “ with the
boat hook, nud hook him iu the gills yvheit he
comes up. Get well braced, for lie’s aroitser!”
The captain accordingly braced himself for
a tug, boat hook iu haud'. ami waited impa
tiently for the moment of capture. His excited
comrade was yet pulling carefully and slowly
at the line, lest it should he broken, and eager
ly watching for tlie first appearance of the
prize, when, suddenly, a “sea cliange” eantc
over his features, and dropping the line, he ex
claimed :
“Jerusalem! Captain, it is the anchor!”
The captain went down iu asltowerof laugh
ter ; and it was a long day before the fisher
man heard the last of catching an anchor,
“ playing it out, ” and “lettiugit run till it
got tired.”
The Russian Soldier.
There is not in tho world a droller creature
than a Russiau solder. When for the first
time, a young countryman throws over him the
gray cloak, and takes the gun ou his shoulder,
one can think nothing more unwieldly nud
awkward than such a being. Rut this seem
ingly so unpliaut crenture shows himself iu an
astonishingly short time capable of the great
est improvement in any direction. The germ
of all tliat is noble and common, of all that is
good aud had, lies hidden in hint. It lies of
course in all men; hut dcvelopes itself in the
most heterogeneous manifestious among no
people so easily nnd speedily as among the
Russians.
The Russian soldiers is brave, cowardly—
honest, tliievish,—humane, cruel—diligent, la
zy—every thing, according to the pattern of
hts chief. With the proper management, ev
erything can be made of him ; but left to him
self he is nothing; and without the influence
of others would carry all his talents undevel
oped to the grave, saving a certain goodnatur-
edncs.H and an indestructible hilarity. There
is some truth in wlint a German officer once
snid to me half in earnest, ludf in joke: If 1
were to command one of my soldiers to set to
on tlie spot and compose u song, he would not
hesitate to obey, and the song would be forth
coming, whethergood or bad we need not stay
to determine. At nil events this blind obedi
ence—a child of fear aud of firm faith in the in
fallibility of liis guide—forms a peculiar aud
conspicuous trait iu the character of the Rus
siau soldiers ns in general of the Russian jteo-
ple.
This unconditional confidence, which among
freer people, not rank and station, but only
oseeiidency of spirit can secure, has, in Russia,
often been the mother of great deetls. Who
will not here call to mind, from tlie late Turk
ish war, that characteristic anecdote which has
preserved to us the words exchanged between
a Russian and a German, on the occasion of
storming a fort! The German centemplutes
the defences with an exjierienced eye, and
gives it as his opinion that it is impossible to
take the fort. ‘How so!—impossible!’ cries
the Russian amazed ‘Why, the Emperor has
commanded it.'
