The banks of these roads are so steep, and at the same time so imperceptible, that a whole brigade of dragoons at a canter might be swallowed up without any previous warning. Many dead horses lay in this hollow way, with their lifeless riders thrown to a distance, maimed, bruised, or with broken limbs. The ascent in front of this position is very steep, but southerly ; where the fourth division attacked, it is of a gentle acclivity. The bodies of the soldiers of the sixth divison lay very thick..., in front of the heights of Calvanet, and also round a fort of the maison des jdugustins. Here the Highlanders and English soldiers were intermixed with the French. The town of Tou- louse lay nearly within point blank range on the west of these heights, from whence we could see the enemy's columns under arms at the t&es-du- pont which protected the various bridges across 136 M BMOI RS, & C. the canal. They were in a manner besieged In the town, as the only road left open to them was by a narrow strip of land south of Toulouse, between the canal and the river Garonne.
