But the advaooe of this crowd war not made without an exposure of long flankaj tohioh were fiercely motiled by the African inftintry, through whom it had penetrated, bnt who, now facing about to the right and left, charged it honrt ntfd , tbrew it into utter'disorder., In,tbia ptatej wlica the men compo»ing this uowiedly crowd were Jailing by thousands; whilst the Gauls and Spaniard*, now advancing, in their turn, were having further pregress in front, and while the African! weie tearing thoir mass to pieces ou both flanks, Hasdrubal, with.his victorious Gaulish and Spanish horsemen,-broke wjth thundering fury npon their rear. Then followed a butchery such as has no recorded equal, except the slaughter of the Persians in their camp,' when the Greeks forced it after the battle of Plataea. Unable to fight or fly, with no quarter aslted or given, the Roman* and Italians fell before the swords of their enemies, till, when the snn«*ot'upon the field, thero WEI'S left out of the past multitude no more than three thousand men alive and uuwounded, and these flqd in strangling parties undercover of the and found a refWein the neigh, boring towns. The consul TEmilus, the procpflsul Cor. tjip late paster of tho horse M. Minuoius, two qurestors, twenty-one military tribunes and eighty genators lay dead amid the carnage. Vurro, with seve.nty hoTBPWen, had escaped  the; fouMf the allied cavalry on the  of the army, and made his way safely to Venusia. But the ill fortune of the Romans was not yet completed Their camp 011 the left bank of the Aufidus was taken by Hannibal, and the soldiers who had,been left in it to assail, his were made prisoner?. The Roman loss at the battle of (Jannsc, according to tjie lowest statements, was 40,: 000 foot, and 2700 liprse, and according to tho highest, 70,000. The prisoners numbered 18,000. These astonishing rCsVilts wore obtained at the Mst of only6000 men of Hannibal's army. By this sad event every house in Rome was in mourtiing.— After the first few hours of panic had subsided in tho city, on tho reception of the defeat and slaughter of the Icgious, the Senate W about refealrlrijt the disaster, and in a spirit ot noble self-reliance and of magnanimity, In place of taking the life of the unfortunate Vntro, hh they had of some of his predecessors undeV "nittrtlat adverse circumstances, voted hitn their thanks, "bcconse he had not despaired of the republic." So far from making terms with the victor it was determined to carry on tho war to the death. Hannibal's messenger was not allowed to enter the city, and the ransom of the prisoners was refused. Tho most damaging result of the battle of Ca,n-n;e was the defection of the allies, Campanians and others, and especially tho revolt of Capua, the loss of which city was second only to thA. submission of Rome itself. ' By the most extraordinary efforts, tho Rotnan armies, were recruited, to that including the volunteer slaves, there were fourteen Roman legions inactive service in the following year, (B. C: 216',) and in equal number of men furnished by the Latin and those of the Italian allies who still remained unfaithful, making the entire force 140,00(7 men. Seventy thousand Romans were thus in arms, besides the seamen, out of a population of citizens which at the last census before the war, had amounted only to 270,213, and which had since been thinned byjjo many disastrous battle*, r D. ;/ ti,. »•■-) Sardinia, and four ia Spain.

Before leaving Placentia lie had written to Hannibal, telling of his being i» Italy, ajjdL of hi# intended line of mproh, villi the view of a junction. The jix bqrjcmqn sMit by Ilasdrubal with this intelligence had almost reached Hannibal, who was then at Canusium, when they were made prisoners by some foragers of the Rornan army, and sent to C.

Great Battles. i Battle or Cannje, B. C. 21*5.-»Iloman power nrnl pride had received rtrde shocks by the loss of tjie tattles of the Trcbio and ef Thrasymenus, as recorded fh Our lust article, .but W°fe stunning and disastrous still was the overthrow at Canntc. The Tallinn strategy, which had been followed by yTvuilus Pail 1 us. Qne of the two consuls opposed Hannibal in the campaign ol' this year, was rejected by hia colleague, Tercntius Varro, who, wheii bis day for command camo.passcdthc 4-uiy.us with his army and offered the etunvy battle-— Tho Roman army, consisting of 40,000 iofuntj-y and 2,400 horse, with, whom wore associated about the same number of allien, of whom 0,000 were cavalry—in all 87,- 000 men—wns posted on the right bunk of the river, eight or nine miles from the Adriatic sea and near Cannm, of whiehj together with large magazines that it contained, IlannibaH'htrtl recently taken possession. The Oarthngmian General, who ftia bC*efD mdviflg down thk Aufldifir, Cm its left bank, now crossed to the right. His force amounted to only 50,000 men, of whom 10,000 were cavalry; but, eonfiding in the superior discipline of his veteran soldiers, and the tabllcs which he knew how to bring into play at the critical moment, he acccptcd with cheerful countenance the wager of battle offered by his enemy. On his left, which rested on tho river, were his Spanish and Gaulish horse ; next in the line, but thrown back a little, were , half of the African Infantry, armed like I the Romans; on the right, somewhat in advance, wage the Gauls and Spaniards, with their companies intermixed; then came the rest of the African foot, again thrown baek like their comrades; and on tho right of the whole line were the Numidian light horsemen. The Roman array is thus described by tbe same writer, (Arnold,) after Polybias. On the right of the line were the Koman legions; on tbe left, the infantry of the allies;- while between the lloman right and the river were tho Roman horsemen, 'all of them of wealthy families; nnd on the left; opposed to the Numidians, were the horsemen of tht Italians and of the Latin name. The velites, Or light covered the front, arid were ready to skirmish fcith the light troops arid Blingers of the enemy. For some reason not explained, the Roman infantry were formed in columns containing many more than their ranks. This tactic must seem to be extraordinary for any army inferior in cavalry but superior in infantry and marshalled on a plain. Hence, the lloman infantry, though nearly 4oubJe the ntitpbpr of the enemy, formed a line of only cquaj Jength with that of Hannibal- The engagement was begun by the skirmishing of tho li((bt troops. The Bavarian slingers sent their stones like hail iu(o tho ranks of the Roman line, and severely wounded the Consul yEmilus himself.-— Then came on the contest between tho Spanish and Gaulish horse and tbe Romans, who were totally routed and driven offitbe field. Hasdrubal, who was in- command here, rode off to the right to aid tho Nomidiune, who feere skirmishing indecisively with the Italian allies. These, on seeing tho Gauls and Spaniards advancing, broke away arid fled, arid were chased arid Slaughtered unsparingly by the Numidians. Hasdrubal, to complete his signal success on this day, charged tRwely upon the rear of the Roman infantry. The columns of which it was composed, seeing the  and,Spanish fopt advancing iu a convex line, or wedge, pressed forward to assail who* seemed to bo thp flanfa, of Urn ftiymy's eolump. With too narrow a foont at the beginning,;tbey. now became oo«pre«s-ed still more by their own movement the right and left oon verging toward the oen- WALL'S HOTEL, h. I„ Cl*nTI88, C. 0.
