THE DAI1A EVENING TELEG RAPE PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 18G7. OLD STORIES HE-TOLD. CULLODEN. livery one who admires the works of Hogarth will remember his inimitable March to Finch ley. That picture represents the rabble rear f King George the Second's Guards staggering past the Adam and Kve publio house at the northwest corner of Tottenham-court-road, on their way to meet the Pretender at Culloden. They are encumbered with Moll Flaggons of the most disreputable character. Their oos hme is garish, clumsy, and ungainly; yet tho tight and cumbrous uniform, with hideous white PfatterdahheB, those conical fool'B caps with lbraei plates in front, have been under lire at Dettingen and Fontenoy. Heforo they taste the Adam and Eve gin and ale again, they will have let the breath out of many a lbagpipe, in ppite of the greed of the Camp ' bells, the ire of the Drumuionds, the pride of the Grahams, and the lierceness of the M ar rays, liven that smart, pretty boy, the fifer, Will march straight at the gleaming claymores and the fluttering tartans, as cool as if he were going to troop the colors in Falaoe-yari On a quiet Sunday morning. It was a cold February day in 17 It) that Ho garth went slyly to watch the Guards march north; for the Duke of Cumberland, recalled by the news of the defeat of llawley's veteran cavalry by the rough rush of Charles Stuart's Highlanders, reached Edinburgh on the ."Oth ef January, after four days' hot posting. There was quite a scene at a military levee in St. James' Palace the day before the gal lant bnt rather tipsy Guards started to Bootland by the way of Finchley. King George had called together his officers, wishing to Eend on reinforcements; but was unwilling to order the Unards because they had only recently returned from a harass ing campaign against the French. The kiug was a "doll little man of low tastes" (Thacke ray) a little, dapper, cholerio fellow, with a red ace, white eyebrows, and eoggling eyes; lie was a bad husband, an un-English king, and a oruel father; he swore at his subjects; he smuggled away his father's will; he would tiek his coat and wig about in his indecorous passions; he even injured Dr. Ward's ehins; yet it must be oonfessed he was a high-spirited, bold little soldier, for he had fought stoutly at Oudenarde nder those great captains, Eugene and Marl borough; and at Dettingen he had advanced on Joot, and, amid a "feu d'enfer," shaken his nword at the combined horse and foot of France. He was in earnest now, fully re solved to die King of England, and, if his son, the Duke, was repulsed, to head Ligo cier's and Pulteney's men, and have a last grapple for the crown. The Duke of New castle fussy, false, and shambling; ridi culed by Bmollet as the butt, yet the mas ter of England was of couise at the levee. The king spoke to his officers of the preca rious state of the country, and asked all who were willing to meet the rebels to hold up their right hands, and those who would rather not, to hold up their left. Up instantly went every right hand. The little red-faced man burst into tears, bowed, and retired. The next day the Guards marched, and at the corner of Tottenham-court-road, our little quick-eyed friend, 'William Hogarth, intercepted them with his sketch-book. Years afterwards, out tide the gate of Calais, the painter saw some of the Highlanders the Guards met at Culloden, ragged, beggared exiles, lying on the stones mnching stolen onions, dining on a pinch of ennff, and thinking of the distant lakes and mountains with that passionate homesickness that seems peculiar to the mountaineer. When Hogarth' jpioture was taken to the king, he grew very red and furious indeed over it. He did not like his Guards made fun of. "I hate bainting and boetry," he spluttered. "What ? A bainter burlesque my Guards ! He deserves to be bicketed for his insolence. Away wid the trumpery." liicketing was hoisting a soldier on the sharp back of a wooden horse out on the parade in St. James' Park, and was by no means a joke. Hogarth also eflervesc d when he heard this, and dedi cated the picture at once to his Majesty's rival, the King of Prussia; by the bw token, he fat only one to Prussia, and was much antered in consequence. ae2?3 The Young Pretender, according to the Whig accounts, though he looked a noble and a gentleman, was no hero. The Jaoobites compared him to Robert Bruce, and were never weary of praising his kingly courtli ness, his affability, his gallantry, and his kandsome person. He was in reality a good looking young man, with bright complexion and fair hair. The Tories believed they saw ia bin not very aoute and rather sensual face the hard lines and ill-omened expression of the Stuart race. His yes were small, but lively, his neck short, bis chin inclined to double. He generally wore a short tartan waistooat and trews, his blue garter, at his button-hole a St. Andrew's rets hanging by a green ribbon, but no star. When marching with the army he donned a broad blue bonnet edged with gold laue. At the Holyrood balls, when leading his fair partisans with the white breast-knots down the dance, he appeared either in a dress of fine f ilk tartan with crimson velvet breeches, or in the English court dress of the period, with a diamond star glittering on his breast. On the 12ih of April the Young Pretender being at Inverness, the Duke of Cumberland a corpulent young man, with rough and arro gant manners forded the Spey at the head of the luiglusn army. He reached lilgin on the Uonday, and on Tuesday Nairn, only sixteen miles from the insurgents. On the 15th, being his birthday, the army lay at Nairn, and were feasted with brandy, cheese, and biscuit. On the 14th, the Prince ordered his drums to beat and his pipes to "skirl" through Inverness to eollect hiB half-fctarved and undisciplined men, and the Highlanders shouted as he walked through their lines: "We'll give Cumberland another Fontenoy. "That night be bivouacked in the park round Culloden House, four miles from Inverness. Orders were sent to collect the Vrasers, the Keppooh Macdonalds, the Macphersons, the Macgregors, come of Glengarry's men, and the Eai1 of Cromarty'B Mackenzie, who were scattered over the country in various predatory expedi tions. The men that day had only a Bmall bntk bannock each, and many of them there lore retired to Inverness in Bearch of food. The only hope Charles had of suooess was to retreat to his best friends, the mountains dov the duke away from the sea and hU tlotuallinc-shiriH. and lure him into defiles and ravines, where his cannon would be sacrificed and hiB dragoons useless ; but the young man was aieer for fijzhtinf., for his men were etarv- Vdif. and their ardor was fast melting away. There was Inverness to protect, and the Irish and French officers were for holding out on the moor, which was in parts boggy and unsuited tosavalry. Lord George Murray, however, who bad the true military instinct, disapproved of the ground, as many great authori ties have sluoe done. He was wisely tot faUinr back to a Lick, undalatiar, And logv.r tract the freulh aid of the river Nairn, which would have been inaccessible to the doke's horse and guns; but his colleagues were all against him. A night attack on Cumberland's camp was then unani mously agreed on, and seemed to promise some hopes of success. The duke's revelling army wsh to be surprif ed and cut to pieces by the broadswords before it could reoover from the first fierce and unexpected onslaught. The English camp was only nine miles distant across the moor, and it was hoped they would reach it at about midnight. The Pretender gave, as a watchword, his father's name, "King James the Eighth." Then embracing Lord George Murray, who started at eight in tho eveniug with the fore most column, he placed himself at the head of the rear guard. The order was to use no fire arms, only dirk and broadsword, to cut down and overturn the English tents, and stab at every bulging or projection in the canvas. Hut even "the starB in their courses fought against Sisera;" all went wrong. Many detours were necessary to avoid bogs and splashes. The van guard fell behind, the men dropped anide, and could not be kept together. It was 2 in the morning before Lord George reached tho old house of Kilravock, three miles from the duke's camp. It would bo daylight directly. A di um beat in the distance, or a horse neighed, and it was pre;-unied the enemy was alarmed. Lord George reluctantly gave the order to retire. The Prince, in his iirst anger, accused his faithful and only souud adviser of trea chery; but, when he cooled, he agreed in the necessity of the. measure, and exclaimed, " 'Tin no matter. We shall meet them, and behave like brave boys;" but the Highlanders, broken in spirits from want of food, were not like the men who at Preston had swept off arms with a single blow of their scythe-blades, or who, single-handed, had driven before thetu Hocks of dismounted dragoons. Still they were at bay and in earust, full of fight, and proud of their former successes against the king's troops. And now let na descrile tho field of battle. Drummoissie Moor (Culloden) is a large heathy, mossy, melancholy moor, traversed longitudinally by a by road, and sprinkled with a few shielings, each with its little tributary kail patch. It is two miles inland from the south shore of the Moray Frith, five miles from Inverness, and ten or twelve from Nairn. Inverness was be hind the rebels; on their right, a rolling range of blue Ross-shire mountains across the river Nairn; on their left, the sea, with the park of Culloden stretching downwards towards the shore of the Frith. To the east, says Robert Chambers, the moor spreads away like a shore less sea, as far as the eye can reach. The Prince's army, drawn up in two lines, consisted of only about 6000 men. The right was protected by the turf walls of a Bmall farm stead. The left extended to a plashy morass, in the direction of Culloden House. In the front were the clan regiments of Atholl, Cameron, Appin, Eraser, Macintosh, Maclachlan, Maclean, John Roy Stuart, Farquharson, Clanronald, Keppoch, and Glengarry. The second scanty line comprised the low country, the French and Irish regiments, Lord Ogilvie's, Lord Lewis Gordon's, Glenbucket, the Duke of Perth. Four small caunon were placed at each wing, and four more in the centre. Lord George Murray commanded the right wing, Lord John Drummond the left, and General Stapleton the second line. Charles himself stood with a small body of guards upon a mound in the rear of the whole. The front ranks of the Highlanders were armed with mubkets, broadswords, pistols, and dirks. They carried on their left arms a round wooden target covered with leather, and studded with nails. They had also small knives stuck into the garters of the right leg. Some of li a tuiT ronV man nAirnnu nnf t.waf.. .1 were shoeless and half naked. They carried their cartridges in pouches on their right side. Many of them wore the philabeg, or kilt, pulled through betwixt their legs, so as to leave the thigh almost naked. The artillery men, also in kilts, had reared beside every gun cylindrical shields of wicker-work to pro tect themselves. Those of our readers who have seen a Highland regiment, can picture to themselves the large-limbed, stalwart swords men, in the prime of their manhood, looking as it they could not die; the white cockades of the Cragsmen gleaming, their dark-green, MacK, ana scarlet tartans lluttering in the cold moor wind that shook the oak, yew, and box tree badges in their bonnets. About eleven in the forenoon, the dim grey line of the distant moor, bright with April sunshine, gloomed and darkened with the ad vancing lines of Cumberland's army, that gradually widened out, and glistened with steel points. The Prince went out to the moor, and ordered a cannon to he hred, to summon his stragglers. I he royal army was disposed in three lines; the centres of all the regiments of the second line being behind the terminations of those of the nrst, and those ol the third line occupying a similar position in regard to tne second. Thus the various bodies of which the army consisted were in a manner indented into each other. 13otwixt every two regiments of the first line were placed two cannon. The left flank was protected by Kerr's Dragoons (the 11th). J "I . 1 . T . . .. . . . . " u utter voionei iora Ancrum; tne right by a bog; and Cobham's Dragoons (the 10th) stood in two detachments beside the third line. The Argyle Highlanders guarded the baggage. The disposition thus made was allowed by tho best auittormes to nave oeen aamiranie; because it was impossible for the Highlanders to break one regiment without finding two ready to supply its place. The insurgent army was also allowed to be very well posted, upon a supposition that they were to be attacked. There is a contemporary print which repre sents the English army as it now appeared. The burly, cholerio young duke wears a star on the breast of his long, still, gold-laced ooat, and is adorned with a close curled wig and a three- cornered cocked hat. He is riding, and point ing out a regiment with his walking cane. The grenadiers have cocked-hats, long surtouts, sash-belts, swords, and long white gaiters. The fumes of the Adam and J.ve ale have dis persed long ago in this keen Scotch air. The colors rise and blossom from the centre of each regiment. The officers, with their spontoons (halt-pikes), stand at the wings. The drummer-boys are a little in advanoe. The dra goons look solid, but clumsy; their skirts are long ana loose, tueir massive uoois Bquare toed. their stirrup-leathers larger, their pis tols bigger, their carbines more unwieldly than those our cavalry now use. Men ot tne Unole Toby and Corporal Trim character are in those ranks side by bide with young Wolfe (afterwards the hero of Quebec), and officers of the Colonel Gardiner btamp simple-hearted, pious, and brave. Ever since the routs of Preston and Falkirk, the duke (who really had some head, though rontenoy, like tho ltelaklava charge, was only a magnificent blunder) had been study ing how to make the bayonet superior to the broadsword. Hitherto, when a Highlander came flying down at KiugUeorge'B grenadiers, winged with his Btormy tartans, he oaugh the bayonet In hi. Urt, then turning aside with bis brawny and hairy arm, leaped in ou the defenceless soldier dirk la one hand and swinging layiaere in the other. 0fttt vim.... twt niH at tha lame moment, u wlUi hand. The duke, no mere strutter about parades, had thought out a remedy for thiB. He conceived that if each man, on coming within the proper distance of the enemy, should direot hiB thrust not at the man directly opposite to him, but against the one who fronted his right-hand comrade, the target would be rendered useless, and the Highlander would be wounded in the right side, under the sword-arm, before he could ward off the thrust. Accordingly, he had practised the men during the spring in this new exercise. When they had taken their morning meal, they were marched forward from the camp, arranged in three parallel divisions of four regiments each, headed by Huske, Sempill, and Mordaunt, having a column of artillery and baggage upon one hand, and a filth-horse upon the other. Duke William's speech to his men betrayed some anxiety as to the behavior of tho sol diers we saw start to Finchley. They were to be Aim and collected, and, forgetting all past failures, to remember the great object which had hi ought them to that bcoteh moor. He represented the enemy to be merciless, aud that hard fighting was the only chance of safety. He was grieved, he added, to suppose that there could be a person reluctant to fight in the British army. Hut if there were any there who would prefer to retire, whether from disinclination to the cause, or because they had relations in the rebel army, he begged them, iu the name of God, to do so, as he would rather face the Highlanders with one thousand determined men at his back, than have ten thousand who were luke warm. The men, catching enthusiasm from his language, shouted, "Flauders ! Flauders I" and impatiently desired to be led forward to battle. It was suggested to the duke at this juncture that he should permit the men to dine, as usual, at 1 o'clock, as they would not probably have another opportunity of satisfy ing their hunger for several hours. Hut he rejected the proposal. "The men," he said, "will fight better and more actively with empty bellies; and, moreover, it would be a bad omen. You remember what a dessert they got to their dinner at Falkirk I" This was like the young hard martinet, who forgot that we English at least always fight best when well fed; but Duke Wil liam was a man who never had any pity. The army advanced in formal mili tary order, the hedges of bayonets glancing and flashing in the cold sunlight. The crimson colors flaunted, and one hun dred drums, rolled valiantly by little cocked hatted men, sounded a challenge to the angry Highlandmen. Lord Kilmarnock predicted deteat to the white cockades, when he ob served the duke's cool, measused, determined advance. About 6ix hundred yards from the rebel lines the marsh became so deep that the soldiers were up to their ankles in water, and the artillery horses floundering in the bog, some of the men sluug their carbines and dragged the cumbrous guns through the brown swampy pools. As the moor was dry to the right, the watchful duke then ordered Pulte ney's regiment to join the Scots Royals and another body of horse to cover the lefc wing. At five hundred paces from the em battled clansmen the duke halted his troops. The day now, as if glooming for the catas trophe, became overcast; the sunshine faded away, and a drift of slanting snow began to beat sharp and cold from the northeast. This discouraged the Highlanders, and raised the spirits of the English and Hessian soldiers. Charles, feeling the disadvantage of this blind ing rain, made some clumsy attempts to out flank and get to windward of the duke, but he was baliled in each attempt, and the two aimieB returned to their iirst positions. countermarches that a poor shock-headed mountaineer resolved, with the spirit of an old Roman, to sacrifice his life for his prince and his clan; he craftily approached the English lines, demanded quarter, and was sent to the rear. He, however, contrived to lounge through the lines, paying no regard to the rough ridicule of the soldiers. Lord Bury, son of the Duke of Albemarle, and aide-decamp to the duke, happening just then to pass by in a riciiiy laced dress, the crafty High lander suddenly snatched a musket from a soldier near him, discharged it at an officer whom he mistook for the duke, and stoically uore tne snot lrom the ranks that instantly stretched him dead. In most battles the strueele is which shall first gain the benefit of being the assailant. in tins battle the ellort was which should be the last to attack, and by this unwise delay the Piince wasted all the ardor and fire of his impetuous irregular troops. The first shots were fired by the unhandy, reckless Highland artillerymen. They blazed away at a clump of horse, among whom they supposed the duke was stationed, but the shot passed high over their heads. How many a heart far away was beating for the men of those two armies ! The little, strutting, dapper, choleric king wa3 thinking of his son; Fielding, perhaps, over his wine, was deriding the cattle-stealing Highlanders. In many an English cottage prayers were offering and tears shedding tor humble Diok and Tom in the ranks. For those fieroe men in the plaids, too, supplications were rising to heaven from many a grey-haired old shepherd on the mountains, many a fair-haired lassie by the loch-side, many a mother in the lonely glen. ' A few minutes after one, Colonel Bedford received orders from the duke to open a can nonade on the Pretender's, army, to provoke the Highlanders to advance. Major-General Husk on the left, Lord Temple on the right, and Brigadier Mordaunt iu the centre, as well as Generals Bland and Hawley, who guarded the cannon at the wings, could ice the iouug Italian," as they derisively called him. Ihey discerned his womanly blue eyes, his long neck, and hii blonde peruke, as he stood on an eimnmmn. r.i,...i ... lord, Indeed, levelling a mm i - cj O 1 mvw viuj vvav grooves and lanes through n. ,,,. raged Highland ranks, but actually bespattered the 1 mice with earth, and killed a man who he da led horse near him. Presently the I rince mounted and rode along the lines of the Cameions and Eraser, urging men, who did not understand a word he saidfto light bravely against the Germans and the WhiKs y tion and blessings in guttural aud sonorous vi 8t I1C The duke, too did his part in his own doml Meeting way-calling on Tom of Btepney, Dick ot llighgate and Joe of Whitechapel, to stand firm, to let the Highland savages fuel the bavo . kI"0 wwhat ort ot men they had to deal with. He then ordered Wolfe's reui ment to form en poUnee (Kiblet F-shape) at the lei .wing, bo as to lap around the clans men when they attacked the left division He aho ordered up two more regiments from the reserve to strengthen the second Hue for there were terrible jeports of those broadsword men how they lopped off arms as if they were only carrots, aud could cut a dragoon clean throuiih to the waist at a single blow. The duke was unwilling to attauk the Prince while he had bis turf walla to guard him, aiul th Prinoa was nnwillinr to surrender hia valuable shelter. But if the doke Lad no heart the Prince had no brains, for he allowed his Highlanders to le cowed by half an hour's cannonade; although ever since the victory at Preston they had treated English artillery as mere popguns, always certain to be taken by a determined rush. In everything he showed in competency to govern other men or to govern himself. At last he sent the order to charge, bnt young Maclachlan, his aide-de-camp, was killed by a cannon ball before he reached the front to eonvey it. Lord George Murray, in the mean time, had ordered the attack without waiting for the tardy Prince; but. even before he could pass the order round, the Mackin toshes, a brave clan never before in action, galled by the fire, their hot Celtic blood un able to tamely endure the slaughter of their friends, all iu a glow with rage, had tightened their belts (scrugyrd), pulled down their bon nets over their brows, flashed out their claymores, aud shouting the war-cry of the clan, rushed from the centre down upon Barrel s and Mnnro'smen. A Lowland gtntleman who saw that wild charge, and looked along the Highland lines, described the aluiost supernatural passion which lit every fate and burned in every eye. Alter them, swift as deer through the steel and smoke, then rushed the Athole-men, the Camerons, Stuarts, Erasers, and Macleans, with Lord George Murray chivalrously waving his sword at their head. In two minutes a tor rent of steel bore down all along the line on those firm masses that had maiched from Finchley. The storm had broken at last. The Duke's cannon on the wings mowed them with "car touche" (grape?) shot. The front rank of Cumberland's army kept their firelocks steady at them, and Bwept and lashed them with fire, while Wolfe's regiment tormented them ou the Hank. It was musket ngaiusi swuru. Hiehlanders first fired their pistols, then flung themselves like wild cats among the bayonets, Blabbing and stabbing like madmen. The duke must have looked anxiously through the hot smoke; but when it drifted off, the long lines of white gaiters were still firm in the rear, though the front had partly gone down, the few Highlanders loft giving way before the shattering fire. Only three of the Macintosh officers escaped; a few still hewed at the bayo nets, and died at the very feet of the Sassenach soldiers. One sinewy fellow, Major Jonn Mor II. : 1 waa Diiun a rrmi-filint. T1 flM t 111 ft enemy's cannon surrounded by grenadiers, of whom he struck down twelve before the hal berts went home to his heart. The bodies of these fierce fichters were afterwards louna in swaths three and four deep. But the charge was, unfortunately, not simultaneous. The pride of the Macdonaids was hurt by their being removed to the lelt ii n . .'.1.1 .f il wing. They had lougut on tne rigui oi iub Siottisharmy ever since Baunockburn, and they thought the change an insult and an ill omen. The true Highlander is hot aa a Welsh man, and proud as a North American Indian. lie would ratner nave tne natue lost man acknowledge himself unworthy of the post of honor. In vain the loung rretenaer promised to take the name of Macdonald, and ever here after, if they fought Well, to place them in the van. No. They sullenly discharged their muskets, and slowly advanced, but they would not charge. They endured the English fire with souied and sullen faces, only hewing at the heath with their broadswords. When the other clans gave way, the Macdonaids turned, too, and lied. Heart-broken at this, their colonel, the Chieftain of Keppoch, an ex cellent and chivalrous man, exclaimed: "My God, have the children of my tribe forsaken me V and advanced upon the .hngiish alone, his sword in one hand, his pistol in the other. A devoted clansman following him with tears a-nA nrnvorp. rufW'lmirr Inm innt. nfl Iia vaq i - l - " n . j - u trm k rlnwii by . bullet. Keppoch replied only, "Take care of yourself," then staggered ioi wara tin auotner bullet struck him dead. The young Chevalier's front line was now re pulsed, but there was still a hope of the Lowland regiments; yet there was no time to heal them. for Lord Ancrum's and Cobham's Dragoons were, now pouring in on the flanks, through the inclosures that had been broken down by the Argyle Highlanders. Some Irish pickets kept up a spirited fire and checked the dra goons, who were sabring the unhappy Mac donaids, and one of Lord Lewis Gordon's regiments stopped another squadron to the right ; but when the English infantry moved forward to charge, the Highlanders fled in spite of all the entreaties of Charles, Lord ueorge, iocniei, sneridan, Ogilvie, and Glenbucket. It was a rout, and the Babres were after the brave men. hot. fast. and wrathful. Yet the English dragoons had been terribly handled. The Clan Chattan are said to have only left fifteen men of Barrel's regiment alive. The rear of the rebels broke into two masses, one proceeding by the open road for Inverness, the other ford ing tne water ot JNairn and taking to the hills. Charles stood stunued, confounded, and in tears. As to his conduct. Whig and Torv his torians differ, as they do upon almost every other subject connected with the Scotch rebel lion. The one party says O'Sullivau turned the head of his horse, and dragged him away the other that Lord Elcho entreated the Prince to rally the men and charge again, and, on his refusing, rode off with contempt, vowing never iu nee m late ngaui. The official account of the battle was cold soiaier-iiKe, and matter of fact. It Bays of the Highlanders, that they came running on in their wild manner upon the right, where his royal highness had placed himself, imagining the greatest push would be there. They came down there several times within a hundred yards of our men, firing their pistols and bran dishing their swords; but theltovals and Pnl. teneys hardly took their firelocks from their shoulders, so that after these faiut attempts they made eff, and the little squadrons on our right were sent to pursue them. General Hawley had, by the aid of our Highlanders, beat down two little Btoue walis, aud came in npou the right flank of their second line. As their whole Iirst line came down to attack at once, their right somewhat outflanked Bar rei b regiment, which was our left,, aud the greatest part of the little loss we sus tained was there; but Blyth's and Sempill's, giving a lire upon those who had outflanked Barrel's, soon repulsed them, and Barrel's regiment and the left of Muuro's fairly beat tLem with their bayonets. There was scarce a soldier or officer of Barrel's, and of that part of Muuro's which engaged, who did not kill one or two men each with their bayonets and spontoms. 'Tis thought the rebels lost about two thousand men upon the field aud in the pursuit. We have hero two hundred aud twenty-two French and three hundred aud twenty-tix rebel prisoners. Lieuteuuut-Colouel Howard killed an officer, who appeared to be Lord Stiathallan, by the seal and different commissions from the Pretcuder found in his pocket. The killed, wounded, aud missing of tho king's troops amount to about three hundred. The French officers will be all Sent to Carlisle till his majesty's pleasure shall be known. Four of their principal ladieB are in custody namely, Lady Ogilvie, Lady Kinloch, Lady Gordon, aud the Laird of M'lutosh'a wife. The pursuit was oruel and bloody. For four miles along the moor the Highlanders wre hewn down. Borne of these luckless men died like heroes. Golic Macbane, a man six foot four high, nnaing mmsen woumieu, singled out, alone, and at bay, Bet his back to wall, aud with his target ana ciaymore nore the onret of half a dozen dragoons who crowded at him with their long swords. The officers cried, "Save that brave fellow ;" but the soldiers cut his head through before ne leu amid thirteen of his dead enemies. The right wing crossed the Nairn with unbrokon resolu tion. The dragoons seemed afraid to touch them ia their despair. One officer, who tried to seize a straggler, was out down with a sin gle blow, and his slayer coolly Btooping down over the body, removed the gold watch. 1 he cruelty after the battle was increased by a rumor that the Pretender had ordered his men to give no quarter. The dake himself was cold and unrelenting. His men were ordered to go over tho field and bayonet and cut down the wounded. This work was down with brutal jocularity, splashing each other with blood, till they looked (as one of them has reported) like nuii ners. i be duke is said to have ordered Wolfe to pistol a young colonel who lay wounded; but Wolfe refused, Baying he would never consent to become an executioner. Un armed men Were cut down in the very streets ot Inverness. The next day the reckless duke continued his cruelties. Seventy poor wretches were dragged from under the heaps of slain, und despatched by platoon firing. Seventy two fugitives, found in ne1ghloring hovels, were also butchered in cold blood. In one hut alone thirty-two blackened bodies were found amid the ashes. Nineteen wounded officers. sheltered in the court-yard of Culloden House, were also carted out and shot against the park wall. Of one hundred and til'tv-seven nri- Eoners sent by vessel to London, only fortv- nine survived the cruelties of the eiyUt mouths' voyage. The English soldiers were seen for days strutting about in the rich laced waistcoats and hats of the Pretender and his generals. The English only lost, in this battle of forty minutes, one officer of distinction Lord Robert Kerr, the second son or the Marquis of Lothian. a captain in Barrel's regiment. He received the first Macintosh on his spontoon, but wa3 instantly beat down by a dozen thirsty broad swords. .The news of the important victory reached London on the 24th of April. The dapper king rejoiced, Sam Johnson secretly lamented. The Park and Tower guns soon bellowed out the news over the red multitudinous roofs; at night there were bonfires throughout London, and every Bteeple clashed out rejoicings. The Duke received the thanks of the English Par liament, and twenty-live thousand pounds a year addition to his income, and the name of The Butcher from the Scotch. As for the poor Prince, he rambled about the Western Islands for live months, skulking in shielings and shepherds' and fishermen's huts. On the 20th of fceptember, he escaped to France in a vessel fitted out by an adherent, who had been pro mised a baronetcy by the old Chevalier if he could rescue his unfortunate son. . When the Master of Lovat, that enormous scoundiel, who arrived too late for Culloden, came to London to end his bad life on Tower hill, Hogarth, - remembering the march to Finchley, went out to see him at Uighgate, and he drew the Bubtle old rogue counting up the Jacobite clans on his picking and stealing fingers.
