'l'houghtlie, -.general cruelty of his disposition WAS evinced My the horteute massacres of • Oczakoff, ,Ismailoff, and Praga, (where 00,000 roles are said to have been eacrieeed to his vengeance); yet. ly e semetiniesahowed et more peculiar ardour of ferocity. To Ike French, in particular, he bore a sort of fanatical histred—' a rage of detestation. A proof of this passion way:vett ex.. Iribited in exercising his men. In commanding 'them to' snake a charge with the bayonet, they were to understand his directions 'in three differesit wo.ye, according to the nation' which they were snppnscd 'to combat. When he gave the! word to march against the Prr.ssians, they charged straight! forward with the point of the bayonet—against the Poles, they rapidly repeated the thrust—against the execrable French, they turned round their bayonets after the second thrnst, treeelarge the wound. Original in every thing, and even erecting originality, this send -barbarian sometimes ap. l peered wrapped up in sheep's skin, like a Cossack, and at other times covered with crosses, •with bages of orders, and portraits, which he had received. These latter ornaments, seined to his little grins countenance and bis lank figare,.gave 'kiln more the appearance of an Italian charlatan than the' ' ,general of an army. Although he gave the world'reasento •otpeot hiseanity, yet, •from sharing their dangers, tbelefa-. Mena, end their 'frugal .fare, he was always the laid of Lis • a. ldicrs .
