COUDERSPORT,.POTTER COUNT*, PA., inDFESDA*,NOVERIBER ISEqi c,nossura frtit ALPS. 1 One of : . the most difficult of earthly' achievements was the tranSportation. by, Napoleon.of an army of 60,000 Jaen' with; cavalry, artillery end all the munitions of war, across the Alps. He wished to de-i scend suddenly, as from the clouds, upon. the immense force of Austrians gathered in Italy for the invasion of France. • Two, skillful engineers were first sent to ex-; plore the, pass of the great St.' Bernard.! They returned with an appalling account of the,difficulties to be surmounted. "Is', it possible," inquired Napoleon, "to cross. the pass." "Perhaps. was the hesitating reply ; "it may be within the limits of possibility." "Forwald then," was the,' energetic response.. On the eastern frontiers of France tl4ro! surges up, the majestic range of, the Alps, piercing the clouds to the regions of per petual ice, and snow. Gloomy gorges and; frightful defiles, through ,which moun-' tain torrents rush,.ard walled'.in by cliffs' which even the chamois cannot climb.—, The principal pass was that of the Great', St. Bernard. It was a narrow mule path,; as steep as it was possible for an an,imal to ascend. The traveller, led by a guide,) painfully and perilously ascended, the, steep, now crossing a roaring torrent, and; now threading a narrow shelf, on the face of the rock, with a fathomless abyss upon; the one side, where eagles soared over the fir tops eneath his feet, and where a perpendicular wall rose to a giddy height in the clouds .over his bead. A Salse ,gtep would ,precipitate him a thousand feet into the gulf heneath..---. Ardis:4les of lock, ico and snow, from the inaccessible heights ever 'swept ,the path. At God's voice they fell, iind from their rush no .precautions could save the traveller. Terrific storms swept those titude, blinding and smothering all who were caught in their fury. It required two days .of almost inexpressible. toil for the traveller to reach the summit of the pass, eight thousand feet above the level of the sea. Here there was a small plain, cheerless I beyond description, the abode of almost eternal Winter-were scarcely a shrub ap pears, and which is surroulided by menu tains of snow of still !tiger elevation. In this Valley of Desolation, as it is appro priately called, the Convent of St Bernard stands. It is the highest inhabited spot in Europe, and has been tenanted fur wore than a thousand years, by self-de nying monks, who acceptably, doubtless, worship their Maker by furnishing hos pitality to the travellers passing through these dreary regions. The descent to the sunny fields of Italy is even more precip itous and difficult than the ascent from the plains of France. The whole extent of what was called the pass, threading torturous rat ines ,and climbing cliffs, was -bout twenty miles. • Such was the barrier which Napoleon, lintanded to surmount, that he might fall unexpectedly upon the rear of the Ans i trians, who were bombarding Genoa, and Ithundering at the gates o(Nice. Giv ing Moreau all the disciplined troops of France, • 150,000 in number, to repel the advance of the Austrians upon the _Rhine, Napoleon collected, with amazing celerity, 60,000 raw recruits for this most- ardu ous of enterprises. To deceive ,his foes he announced openly, that he intended to send an army across the Great St. Bernard. England and Austria laughed the idea to scorn. It was deemed iw possible that an army with ponderous ar tillery, tons of- cannon balls, and till the bulky munitions of war could be, trans ported where a wheel had never rolled, and where a mule could with difficulty tread, and,where two mules oould hardly pass abreast. The troops were secretly- collected in the vicinity of Dijon, but so dispersed as not to attract special attention, and yet in such a manner that they could easily be assembled at the entrance of the pass.— Immense stores of provisions were noise lessly accumulated. Large sums of spe cie were forwarded to hire the services of the mountaineers. Able mechanics were employed to take apart the baggage wag ons and gun Carriages, so that they might be transported in fragments, on the backs of mules across ther, mountains, and be speedily put together on the other side. Hospitals were provided with every com fort for the sick and the wounded. Ev-. cry man carried, besides his gun and am munition, several days' rations. The sinuous path was so narrow that much of the way it could only be trodden single file. Abnut the middle of May, 1800, the whole army was put in motion: To-trans port the. heavy cannon, pine logs were split in the center, the parts hollowed out and the guns sunk into the grooves. A long string of mules, in single file, dragg ed these ponderous engines up the steep acclivities. Often a hundred, men were harnassed to a gun. The peasants took hold of this laborious work with great zeal: 'Napoleon gave thetn two hundred dollars for taking a gut over the pass.— With songs and glee they tugged Ist - the ropes. Gleaining' thrpugh the, mists of these almost inaccessible heights,' there was the flash of banhers ! and burnished arms, resembling'phantom troops battling in the air. The soldier found tp his surprisle. and gra,tification, ;that, Ppm the summit of the mountain, his.loved cotninande& had made wonderful:_ prOvisions for, his te freshmetit. ',An itnniense store of i bread and Cheese and refreshing wine,—wine not our miserablit pit:ducts of th 4 still, but true juiCh of the grape, bad been col. lected fur the'occasion in the monastery. As the 'soldiers passed each one redeived; without' conftiaton,:a loaf of bread, ti piece of cheeSe;an'd atgenerous goblet of wine. Whenever in' any part•of the path, any special difflenity was encountered, the bugle sounded the ch6.ge, and the 'soul stirring strains reverberating sublimely among the cliffs animated the soldiers, and they presSed on as if storming en trenchments upon the field of battle.— But Providence seemed' to smile lon the enterprise, and though some hundreds, men and horses, - Verisbe4 by avalanches and the various caustialties of the' route; in four days the',whOle army was assem bled on the plains of; Italy. Geh. Ber tiller was sent forward with the advance guard. Napoleon re:named - behind per sonally to superiutehd the pasage of , troops, and was the last man to cross the mountain., Gee solitary Swiss peasant as a guide, accompanied shim, leadind his mule. The peas ant'was' hot aware of the distinguished digniti of his compan ion; and Napoleon's irrepressible 'spurts,- with humanity so Won upon Wit confi dence that Ithartlessl l y revealed the story of his love for a fair maid, in his t native villiaffe, whom he longed to marry, but coulenot, as ho had neither house br land for , the support of a fauiily. Napoleon, as be dismissed his guide, gave him an amplb reward, 'and in addition entrusted him with a loose paper containing a few lines written in pencil; which be was to give, on 'his' return to the other side, to the Administrator ofithe'army, The young man fojind Upon presenting the,paßer, to his unutterable surprise and delight, ant it wasiNapoleon whims he had conducted over:11.11e: mountain, and that the paper contained an order that there should be purchased for himla field and wy eottacr s' e. This worthyworthypeasant \died a I feears ago,. having enjoyed during his wl6le life the:peaceful home thus , genet ou,ly conferred upoo l him.' ' The heroic little Vaud, with an hour's delay, advanced rapidly ;Along the valley of the Aosta. 'Suddenly! their Msrch was arrested by at fort which ef fectually, swept the pass, between-almost overhanging hills. • Napoleon hastenei to the front, and with his glass carefully Scanned the mountains. He perceived a "ride reach of te g r ius f !the g fortwherethe snldiers could asn o s in single file, but along ‘vhich the artillery could not be drawn t ; Hsi sent his troops over the ridge, deceiving: the garrison in the fort with the idea that lie would rat tempt to take, his artillery by the: same Path. In a dark night, trusty men, with great caution and silence, strewed hay thickly upon' the read and the artillery And baggage train :wore thus secretly passed along. Upon thej face of the op posite cliff, m a shell which no hbof of horse had ever trod Were, the garrison of the Fort oft Bard had the mortifiPation of seeing Napoleon's whole arrnyqdefile beyond the ,reach of their guns.l The commandant wrote .. to Gen. • Melas; who was at the head of the Austrian forPe "I have seen an army .of 35,000 men and 4,000 horses creeping along the face Of Mount Albaredo But not one sin gip piece of artillery has passed, cr can pass beneath the guns of iny fortreas." • When he was writing this letter nearly all the guns of Napoleon had gone by,. and like the bursting of a pent up torrent were rushing down the valley. Melds now awoke in consternation. But• it. was: too late. Like a, thunderbolt Napoleon fell upon him, gaining tiho world renowned victo y'of Marengo. E ' A oad old age is death,without Oath's quiet.

Ptatei by the European races its' ", populuton has exhibited an unusual tie velopment of physical vigor' and energy. The Svredes; who first began the work of eoloniiation,l were a hardy and robust, people next came the English Quakers whose leading characteristics were indus try, rigid morality and a love of useful , labor; and seen after followed the Ger mans,i an honest, persevering and athletic race, who for a long period had almost exclusive possession of .larger portions of ourcobabionWealth. We have always been regarded as a solid, isebitantial people; and the, phys icOchaTacter of the State has proved to, Hbe in ! remarkable unison with the nature of those who have chosen it for their i dwelling place. Its ledint. attraction at first wan the , rich soil which so bountifully remunerat., ed the husbandman fur his toil; but at a more recent period it has been discovered that' unteld ri'ulies lie buried in the bowels of-the earth, and almost every year is bringing; to light now sources of wealth, not dreamed of by our early ancestors.— Coal and iron lin inexhaustible quantities ,- 1 , . reward the industry of those who engage in these departments of labor in which theselFilieles are mainly used. The an thracite Of eastern Pennsylvania is peen liarto the region in which it is found, and. the bituminous coal of the western ' f .. part 9` the State is unsurpassed by the carbobatona product of any part of the worlc Iron-ore and limeston'e pervade vast ortions f the surface of the State; 1 ) and' three suchproducts as iron, ccal, and 1 lime,!would of themselves be sufficient, und9r favorable "circumstances, to afford employment, wealth and prosperity to a cast !population of industrious people; but•within a few years it has been found that to eertain localities •the earth con tains immense quantities of oil, which is furnished so cheaply that it has come into extenSive use din our own country, and is already an important article of commerce. In addition to all this, 'we find, by A re cent announcement, that, in boring for oil, ie has been discovered that sub.erra- Beanstreams Of water exist, so strongly impreignated With salt as to crystalize up on-reaching the air, and that the halt-is of superlur quality. What more may be produced hereafter it is not easy to tell ; but if there ehould, bii no mere of the greati substantials which - constitute the! mater / ial elements upon which - the .corn- fort and happthess of a - civilized people are, based, we have great , reason to rejoice and* thankful for the bleas i irigs which , bountiful Prosiidenee has bestowed upon , 1 i There 'is probablY no part of the earth's surface, Of eqUal extent, within which a people may live with so little to depend upon from other countries.
