About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1813 edition. Excerpt: ...combined, with the awful incidents of the scene, to render this one of the most imposing and interesting sights that could be witnessed. The following is an instance of the Cozaks' ingenuity: --The French cavalry were afraid to remain at night in the out-posts, and withdrew, to the long mortification of the Cozaks, who thus had no opportunity to achieve any enterprize against them. A party came one day to the officer of artillery and requested a loaded shell, which was given them. They went when night fell, and having observed where the enemy's posts by day lighted their fires, they buried it under the ashes. The unsuspicious foe returned in the morning, and, after their patroles, rekindled the usual flame, round which they collected; in a short time the fuze was enflamed, and the fatal explosion killed and desperately wounded seven men, whilst the exulting Cozaks rushed from their sia repents of her alliance or not, her strict observance of the treaty, and her steady adhe ambuscade to secure the horses of those who could not escape. The equipment of the Cozak's horse is light;--a snaffle, --an halter, of which the rein is always held in the hand, that he may be instantly attached on dismounting, or be led with facility, --the tree of a saddle, on which is bound a cushion stuffed with the Cozak's property, and on which he rides, --form the whole of his accoutrements and baggage. His dress is equally simple; a blue jacket, (with a white frog on the cuff or cape, ) fastened with hooks; a pair of loose trowsers, plaited so as to cover and conceal the opening in front; a pair of short boots, a black cap made of the unborn Iamb, from which depends a red pandour sack, a plume on the side of the cap, or, what is more common, except in the Attaman's regimen
