If you have not, pray do. It contains, in my opinion, next to the account of the wreck of the Mediisa, the best picture of your friends, the modern French, that I have yet seen. The military part is not worth your attention, but the rest is capital. " 114 MASTER-GENERAL OF ORDNANCE [1818 Sept. 1818. — " I have just heard a good story of a travelling Bull family, who were passing the road during our review on Thursday. The enemy, consisting of the Cavalry, Infantry, Staff Corps, etc. , English t...roops, were to be beaten out of the village of D'Ouchy, on the high road to Valen- ciennes, by the Saxon troops, according to the plan, and this part of it was carried into execution just as Mr and Mrs Bull were passing, and there was a good deal of firing, and the light troops were running away and the Saxons following, hooting and holloing as if all had been real. Mrs Bull took fright and fainted away, which did not prevent Mr Bull from getting out of the carriage and running with his flying countrymen, and he seriously thought the whole was in earnest, that war had been declared, and that this was the first action ; and as he could not understand, or make himself understood by, the Saxons, some time elapsed before the matter was set right by an English doctor who happened to be standing by.
