Be tween Marvurro and Fried land came the vl.tory at Austertltx. which broujfht Auatria at the feet of tire Coralcan. and Jena, which despoilnl the ancient klncdom of Frusala and huuibled Uncrown of Frederick the Great. Yaat political conaequencea involving not alone Naiwleon'a career, but the destiny of France and the map of Europe, bum; upon the result of Fried land. Had Napoleon been defeated by Alexander I. of Btisala at Fried land his successes at Jetu and Auaterlitx would hare been undone. Prussia would hare been restored. Auatria would hare been aided by the conqueror at Friedlaod to take revence for AuaterUtx and would In the end bare won back the Italian territory lost at Ma rengo- Fried land resembled the batUe of Marenco In a military aen-vc. At kiareatfo Najioleon ao maneuvered ato force the enemy. Austrians, to leave their fortlflcatioua and attack the French. The Austrians began the attack when the French were scr.ttorW orer a wide Held and at the close of the day were nominally rlctors. Napoleon, however, gathered his forces and by a most Impetuous attack, ordered after 6 o'clock, won a decisive triumph. At Friedland Napoleon again maneu renxl to draw the enemy—Russians, under General Bennlgsen—from their fortlflcalions. In so doing be separated bit several corps l y many miles, and Bennlgsen fell upan the French corps of Lannes at the town of Friedland. on the banks of the river Alle. The Russians crossed the Alle to get at Lannea. but. falling In rapidity and decision, were stood off by the French until G o'clock In the afternoon, when Napoleon and bis whole army reached the Sekl. Bennlgsen waa cnughfln a trap, with the river behind him, spanned by but one good bridge and a poor pontoon bridge and having only a single ford and that almost useless. Napoleon's chief of artillery, Scnarmont. trained thirty gnus to play upon the river crossings, supporting by cannon fire desperate attacks made by the French Infantry, under Marshal Ney and Marshal Victor. - The Russian disaster was as greet as that suffered by the Austrians at Marengo, and Napoleon waa again In a position to dictate tonus which settled the fate of kingdoms. Before the battle of Friedland Alexander I. or Russia was the savior of lurope aa against the grasping designs of Napoleon/ A few days later be met bis conqueror at Tilsit and in the moat notable treaty of modern times recognised the Corsican "upstart” aa the legitimate emperor of France.

The clerk of the hotel bad neglected to call him until twenty minutes after the requested hour, aud as a consequence he had but a short time for breakfast before he must leave for his train.
