and thireen hundred cannon, while Itnitiparte had
but one hundred and' twenty-five thousand men
and seven hundred and fifty csnnorr. The latter
were drawn up around Leipsic, with the city and
the river' Elsler lying in the rear—awaiting the
oniet of the immense host that was Moving to the
attack. At 9 o'clock the battle opened,
.and
nearly half a million of men engaged in - mortal
combat. The scene at this moment was indescri.,
bably awful—the whole , plain'. was black with the.
moving masses: save where the myriads of glitter
ing helmets rose and fell in tha sunlight, while
eight hundred cannon, in ,one huge semicircle;
opened their united thunder on the French.
„ Clouds's'!" dustfilled the air, and amid' the roar
of artillery, the strains of
,martial music,.the Anil
neighing of tens of thousands of horses moving to
battle, and all the 'deafening clamor and , solemn
murmurs of a mighty army, the shock came.—
Nearly two thousand cannon opened with terriffic
explosions on the living masses; and the frightful'
carnage began. - Ponistowski on the right was
first engaged. Made Marshall of France the day
before by the Emperor, he burned to distinguish
himself, and though at first forced back by the
heavy charge, he firmly .held his position against

Leipsic immediately followed, and the victorious
columns went rushing with shouts to its attack.
Artillery, infantry, and cavalry, ammunition and
baggage wagons, and chariots, were crowded and
rolled together, and went streaming over the only
remaining: bridge. •A rtar-guard under Mac

to cover this disorderly ratreat ks Napoleon.
