As he was on his march to Russia, he caused to be graven on a stone fountain at Cob- lentz upon the Rhine, as follows : ALEXANDER. 171 "Year MDCCCXII. Memorable for the campaign against Russia. 1S12. " The Russian commander, when Napoleon had been dethroned, passing through Coblentz with his troops, caused to be carved, immediately beneath as follows: " Seen and approved by the Russian co'/imander of the town of Coblentz, January 1, 1814. " It is true that no such speedy retort awaited the Mace...donian conqueror, yet he was bound upon an errand which was ere long to put a period to his proud career. Alexander soon pushed on to the East, and, meet- ing Darius near the Gulf of Issus, now Aias, and forming the north-eastern point of the Mediterranean, a tremendous engagement took pi-ace. Darius was defeated, and more than one hundred thousand of his soldiers lay dead on the field. Darius escaped with difficulty, leaving his tent, and even his wife and daughter, in the hands of the enemy. When the fighting was over, Alexander went to see the tent of Darius.
