We have passed through four jong ° years of suffering, suspense and sacrifice, such as the world never knew before. Canada has had its full share of the burden.

The French army in Spain; consisting of about 85,000 men and 150 guns, was com= manded by King Joseph Bonaparte, and occupied, a somewhat extended line in the basin of Vitoria, along the line of the River Zadorra, a left handed tributary of the Ebré.. The Allies under Wellington had £0, 000 men and about 90 heavy guns Atl daylight the Allies moved forward in four columns to attack the 'enefy, the Spaniards under Genéral Hill be- ing the first té draw bidpd. It was a day of success for . the Alles, thagls to the brilliant generalship' ellington, who was quick to see A and stant in turning them to his credit. At six o'clock in the evening the French made a final stand agamst Colonel G.aham, and after some hard fighting they were compelled to yield. = 'After the Allies had occupied the city, they pursued the French until dark. 'The victory was complete. All Joseph's equipages, ammunitions and stores together with 143 guns, a million pounds in gold, and vagious trophies, fell into Wellington's ~ hands, the French loss inomen being nearly 7,- 900 and that of the Allies over 3,- 000, or whol 1,600 were Portuguese 4 in spite of the handicap imposed upon him, yet prove to be a good, useful citizen of the country .
