Austrians 90,000. What the exact forces were at Waterloo, it seems no two historians have yet been able tu agree upoir,—but it is safe to.say that Napoleon's effective torce ie that renowned battle was about 70,000, and Wellington's still less.—At the terrible battle of Borodino, the Russian foree waa 132,000 men, with 640 pieces of af tillery; while Napoleon had 133,000 troops of whom 30,000 were cavalry; but he had ooly 590 pieces of artillery. ‘The battle was one of the fiercest and bloodiest on record; the Ruasans losing about 50,000 and the French about 40 000. .
