Chats on Military Curios

by Stanley C. Johnson

2. Buonaparte, hearing of Nelson's victory, swears by his sword to extirpate the English from off the Earth.

3. General result of Buonaparte's attack upon Ibrahim Bey's Rear Guard.

4. Britannia between Death and the Doctor.

5. The Surrender of Ulm: or Buonaparte and General Mack coming to a right understanding.

6. The New Dynasty: or the little Corsican gardener planting a royal pippin-tree.

7. Apotheosis of the Corsican Phœnix.

In the foregoing, we have merely touched upon the subject of collecting military prints, but enough has been said in these few pages to show that this branch of curio-hunting is full of fascination and deep interest and is well worth the attention, not only of readers who possess artistic feeling, but of those who are desirous of adding to their store of knowledge concerning the military dress of bygone periods.
