out the ghas!ly spectacle its bosom exhibit
ed. The cannonading soon commenced but
with little effect, as the mists concealed the
armies from each other. A hundred and
sixty thousand OF The allies, stretched in a
huge semicircle around the heights, while
Napoleon, with one hundred and thirty thou
sand in the plain below, was waiting the ia
vorable moment in which TO commence The
attack. At length the battle opened on
the right, where fierce firing was heard as
Victor pressed firmly against an Austrian
battery. Suddenly, Napoleon heard shock
like falling mountain. While Victor was
engaging the enemy in front, Murat, unper-
eeived in the thick mist, had stolen around
to the rear, and without note of warning
burst with twelve thousand cavalry on the
enemy. He rode straight through their bro
ken lines, trampling under foot the dead and
dying. Ney was equally successful on the
left, and as the mist lifted, it showed the al
lied wings both driven back, The day wore
away in blood carts, loaded with the
wounded, moved in a constant stream through
tie city; but the French were victorious al
all points; and when night again closed
over the scene, the allied armies had de-
cided to retreat.
