A WU EVOU
The Duke el Parma.
- Wroas the United. States Service Magazine.]
Alexander Farnete" was undoubtedly
tiae greatest captain whom Spain in her
,palmiest days—the reigns of Charles V.
.and Philip 11.--sent forth to conquer;
.and his campaigns in the Low Countries
.and _Franee, have at the same time a
romantic, and a scientific interest. The
impulses of chi7alry had not-then ceased
t 4 exist; yet military tactics had made
considerable progress. In its purest
days, chivalry perhaps shows itself too
Quixotic to excite much of our sym
pathy; but when we behold it running
parallel- with science, chastened and
ohecked by _its severer companion, and
brought within the rules of reason, the
combined display of both is very in
spiring. Farnese came into the Nether
lands, the scene of military renown, in
the year 1578. He had before this
„greatly distinguished him; .elf under his
uncle, Prince John of Austria, at the
famous battle ofd : . Lepanto, and he now
took the field in the hope of gathering
fresh laurels under his uncle, whom
that action had rendered so celebrated.
He was the grandson to the two chief
magnates of Europe the Emperor
Charles. V. and Pope Paul 111., and even
in his boyish years exhibited a decided
taste for a soldier's life; besides, the age
being purely military, he was surrounded
in hi@ childhood by martial sights and
sounds. "He was born," says. Strada
"amid the alarms of war." He heard
the sound of - the trumpet before the
songs of his nurse, and the gleam and
flashing of arms was the first light that
broke upon his sight. He was married
in his tenth year, with much pomp and
circumstance, to the Princess of Portu
gal. In the very first engagement in
which Parma was engaged after his ar
rival in the Netherlands, he gave pro
mise of his future renown. This was at
the battle of Gembloux, where the im
perial. army gained a very decided sue
cess over the superior forces of the States.
The latter were passing through a narrow
defile, so rugged and rocky as to prevent
their preserving any order. They be
lieved themselves, however, secure from
an attack, owing to the difficulty of tra
versing the pass ,to reach its outlet; and
from the protection which a steep bank,
intersected with small streams of
rushing water, ; apparently impasg - -
able for large bodies, interposed
between them and the Spanish forces.
Parma, however, without consulting
with Don John, resolved to undertake
this perilous passage, and fall upon them
at the outlet, with merely a few squad
rons of cavalry. He trusted for success
to the disorder of the enemy, and to two
simultaneous attacks which should take
place at the same time with his—the one
in flank, and the other in rear—which
were practicable higher up the defile.
Seizing a lance from his squire '
and
mounting his
fresh horse, he sent this
message to his uncle: "Tell your general
that Alexander recollecting the ancient
Romans, has thrown himself down a
precipice, to gain this day a great and
glorious victory." The most complete
success crowned his daring adventure.
The enemy found themselves suddenly
attacked in front, flank, and rear; and,
before they could face this triple shock,
confusion and a perfect Bull Run panic
spread through their ranks and com
pleted the victory. According to Strada
—whose authority as respects numbers
we do not deem very reliable—the Roy
alists only lost twelve men in this action,
while the incredible number of six
thousand of the enemy were killed and
captured, together with all their artillery
and baggage trains. Farnese followed
up his victory by the capture of the
towns of Siechen, Diest, Philipville and
iimbourg, which already raised his
reputation very high for so youthful a
general. Shortly after, Don John, of
Austria, the hero of Lepanto, died, and
was succeeded in• the chief comman:
by his nephew, who found himself in a
very critical position. Two armies, one
from France,under the Duke of Alengotr,
and another from Germany, under the
Falantine John Casimir, had arrived to
the succor of the States. Parma, unable
to keep the field against the combined
f,rce, shut himself in a fortified camp,
under the walls of Namur. But the
divisions and dissensions which pre
vailed among the confederate chiefs se
cured him from an attack, and their ar
mies in a short time disbanding for want
cof pay, or from the - expiration of their
terms of service, he found himself free
to again assume the offensive. The siege
.of Maestricht was the enterprise that he
itaugurated. The limits of our sketch
will not permit us to give a detailed
.account of this memorable siege. Suffice
it to say, that; after eight months' des
perate resistance, the place was carried
by a combined surprise and assault. Its
fall was followed by importants results.
The Walloons, who, had long been cold
toward the cause of the I.?owbountries
were decided by it to a reconciliation
with Parma's party. 'The frank and
gallant bearing of the Prince had doubt
less its influence in inducing them to
this step. Quickly following this advan
tage, which was equivalent to many
victories, Farnese induced many towns
to return to their allegiance to the king.
At this time, howeVer, the bigotry
of Philip induced him to speak
out too plainly at the Cologne
conference, and made it appear that
nothing but the total extirpation of
, heresy and the complete establishment
of despotism would satisfy him. This
prepared the minds of the patriots
for a bold measure, which was the
forerunner of a still bolder one—" The
Declaration of Independence of
the United Provinces." The first
step toward this great act was
the "Union of Utreelt," which the wise
and patriotic Prince of Orange now
opposed to the successes of the great
Italian soldier. Mutual weakness now,„
caused the war to languish on both
sides. The Prince of Parma—since the
.dismissal of his foreign troops, in accord
ance with stipulations entered into with
the Walloons—could undertake nothing
of importance; and the States, having so
many towns to garriSon, had no efficient
force to keep in the field. The two
leaders were therefore busily employed
in spinning webs of intrigue over the
land; yarnese in corruptinc , the garri
sons of every town wherjlais agents
could get admission, and the Prince of
Orange in bringing to a conclusions the
treaty which transferred the sovereignty
of the Netherlands to the head of the
Duke of Anjou. Thislatter measure was
successful, but, when completed, did not
produce the happy results it promise&
The Duke, who was As impetuous as he
waS , fickle and false; attempted to sur
prise Antwerp and some other towns,
that he might render his pOwer inde-
pendent. Having disgracefully failed
in thiS - base itTeaehery, .both he and
, his French soldiers became • ob
jects of the greatest contempt. Hence
new troubles and distractions arose. In
: the mean time the Prince of Parma had
induced the Walloons to•petition for a
return of his foreign troops, and with a
force of nearly seventy thousand he
again entered upon an active oampaiga.
His movements were Napoleonic. With
the exception of a faint check he Met
with the renowned Marshal Biron, the
career of his conquests was wonderful.
Town after town fell before him. Stein
wick, Levres, Breda, Tournay, Dun
' kirk, Bruges, Ypres, Ghent, and other
fortified places were redueed—some after
long and bloody sieges, some by surprise
or the fear of famine,. and some by
treachery. To increase• the consterna
tion of the States, a blow was struck by
the assassin Gerard, more irreparable
than all their other calamities.. This
was the murder, at the while . instiga
tion of the cruel and despotic Philip, of
the Prince of Orange, on the eve of his
inauguration to the sovereignty, vacant
by . the death of the Duke orAnjon. The
annals of liberty present us with few
brighter and nobler characters than this
murdered Prince of Orange. The course
of Parma's successes now brought him
to the greatest of all his great achieve
ments—the siege of Antwerp, already
described.in a previous number of this
magazine.
Soon after the surrender of Antwerp,
Alexander Farnese exchanged, by the
death of his father, the title of Prince
for the superior one of Duke of Parma,
but did not even visit his dominions.
In 1588, he was put in command of the
armada, which Philip of Spain sent
against England; but, being shut up
with his army in Antwerp by the Dutch
flotilla, he was only a spectator of its
disastrous failure. We must pass over
many of his successes in the Low
Countries, for, although marked by his
usual energy and rapidity, they are too
much involved in political matters to be
rendered intelligible in a brief sketch,
and we will therefore refer the reader
who may feel desirous of fuller informa
tion to Prescott's History of the Reign
of Philip 11., and to those charming his
torical volumes of Motley, "The Dutch
Republic,' and his "History of the
United Netherlands." In 1590, the
Duke was summoned to France to
oppose the Huguenots, who held Paris
closely invested, and on the point of sur
rendering. He had now to meet a foe-
Man worthy of his fame—no less a
person than King Henry IV. of Na
varre, who had just won the famous
victories of Argues and Ivry—the same
gallant soldier of whom Macaulay
sings :
CAPT/I2IN
"Hurrah! hurrah! a single Held
Rath turned the chance of whr:
Hurrah! hurrah! for Ivry
And Henry of Nava, re!"
The eyes of all Europe were now bent
on the spectacle of a contest between the
two greatest captains of the age, very
much as we looked upon the campaign
of 1564 between Grant and Lee. The
hostile armies met at Chelles, about four
miles from Paris, on the high road on
which he was encamped. There was no
other road except on the opposite side
of the River Marne, which was defended
by the strong fortress of Lagny. King
Henry, believing it to be, imposSible that
the enemy should quit his camp, where
he lay strongly entrenched, cross the
river, and take Lagny in presence of an
equal force ; looked upon a battle as in
evitable. But Parma had resolved to
avoid an engagement, and, after remain
ing inactive for several days and com
municating his plans to no one, gave
out that he designed to give battle to the
French. His van, composed of a strong
force of cavalry, immediately occupied a
hill which separated the armies, the
Marquis de Reut, who commanded it,
tieing ordered to maintain his grounii,
but on no provocation to descend the
hill. The infantry,who were advancing,
were now turned back by Parma, who
said to the Duke of Mayonne, iu
command of the main body: "My
dear Duke, we shall soon be at
Paris, but for this purpose it is ne
cessary to turn back and direct our
march to another quarter." This
movement was successfully concealed
by the cavalry, which covered the hill.
King Henry ! full of confidence, drew
up his army in line of battle, expecting
every hour an engagement,but resolved
to wait till the enemy should descend
the hill, that he might meet them on
more equal terms. During this time the
Duke of Parma had moved his army
towards 'the Marne, strongly fortified
his position, and planted his batteries
against the town. The cavalry continued
to amuse the French until night, when
they began to file off toward the main
body, and it was not until the morning
dawned that Henry discovered the
manoeuvre that had been so skilfully
executed by the antagonist. He was
completely checkmated. Should
he attempt to relieve Lagny, he- left the
direct road to Paris open. Should he
attack Parma in his intrenchment, he
was exposed, from the strong and ad
vantageous position of the enemy, to
almost certain destruction. He was
completely outgeneraled and was con
demned to the bitter mortification of
watching in inactivity the successful'
operations of Parma—of seeing the river
crossed—of witnessing the assault and
capture of Lagny, and of seeing the
Spanish army marching triumphantly
on Paris. This was, perhaps, the most
brilliant achievement in the career of
the Duke of Parma, unless it was sur
passed by the boldness and skill of a
movement made during his second in
vasion of France. In 1592, he was sent
into Normandy to the relief of Rouen,
then besieged by Marshal Biron, and
advanced into the peninsulwof Caul, to
take the fortress of Candebec; but he
neglected to secure the entrance behind
him. Henry of Navarre, seeing his ad
versary's blunder, and delighted at the
prospect of out-generaling his •great
rival,promptly seized upon all the passes,
and Parma found himself completely
hemmed in by the Rivers Seine and Eu
and the French - forces. But the great
captain, although suffering from a
wound received at the siege of Candebec,
and from a fever, did not lose heart or
hope. There apßeared no means of es
cape, and Henry impatiently awaited
the surrender of the whole Spanish
army. What, then, was his astonish
ment, one morning, after he had been
amused the previous day with a sharp
cavalry engagement, the seeming pre
lude to a general' action, to behold the
army of his adversary on the other side'
of ;.the;'river ! Parma had collected a .
large number of boats, constructed rafts
for transporting artillery apd baggage,
_thrown reinforcements into the besieged
town, and cleared the Seine of `several
Dutch ships-of-war by making their au-

,chorage too hot• for them. All this had
'been done• with such - oha;rac ristit, ra
pidity and secrecy that his, design was
not discovered until the whole move;
went had been successfully consum
mated under cover of night and a heavy
mist, and the disappointed French king
beheld the arms of his supposed captives
glittering in the sun on the opposite
banks of the Seine. To increase his
chagrin, Farnese sent him the same day
a message inquiring what he thought of
his last manoeuvre. His army now re
turned unmolested to the Netherlands,
but he was unable to proceed further
than Arras, where he died from the ef
fect of his wound, December 3, 1592, in
the forty-seventh year of his age. By
his marriage with Mary of Portugal he
left and daughter,and two sons, the
eldest of whom, Ranuzio, was his suc
cessor. A noble bronze equestrian
statue of him, by John of Bologna, one
o the finegt we saw in Italy, adorns the
principal public square of Piacenza.
The Duke of Parma was a man of con
summate military and diplomatic
genius, and certainly had no superior,
if, indeed, he had an equal, among the
great captains
.of _ the sixteenth century,
arid, if posterity can forgive him the
fault of being the potent and active in
strument of such a character as Philip
11. of Spain in his most iniquitous de
signs, as well as pardon his arbitrary
principles in consideration of his age
and birth,his moral character will merit
our admiration no less than his military.
