Poles, was in reality the forerunner of disaster. During the campaign
the Polish troops were supported by a Russian division. To Poniatowski,
the Russians, the despoilers of his country, were more hateful than the
enemy, and he so distrusted them that, at the risk of having to fight
them, he refused to allow them to occupy any of the captured fortresses;
this suspicion was increased by the capture of a secret despatch from
the Russian commander to the Austrian Archduke, congratulating him on
the victory of Razyn, and expressing a wish that his standards might
soon be joined to the Austrian eagles. The Prince at once sent the
intercepted despatch to Napoleon, who summed up the situation with the
words, "I see that after all I must make war on Alexander." So when the
Grand Army assembled for the invasion of Russia, Prince Poniatowski with
his Poles rejoiced at the call to arms, and brought thirty-six thousand
well disciplined and well equipped troops to the rendezvous, while
sixty-five thousand were left to garrison the fortresses: the years of
peace had been spent by him in busy labour as Minister of War, providing
for the necessities of the army, establishing engineering and artillery
colleges, equipping hospitals and perfecting organisation and
discipline. Smolensk, Moskowa, and many a skirmish proved that the
labour of organisation had not sapped Prince Joseph's dash and courage,
and the horrors of the retreat brought out to the full his chivalrous
bravery and determination. Though wounded during the retreat, he was
ready the following year to help the French in Central Europe. On the
morning of the first day of the battle of Leipzig, Napoleon, to fire the
Poles, sent their Prince his baton as Marshal. While esteeming the
honour, Prince Joseph showed no undue elation, for, much as he admired
the French, and grateful as he felt, he was at heart a Pole, and, as he
said to a comrade, "I am proud to be the leader of the Poles. When one
has a unique title superior to that of Marshal, the title of
Generalissimo of the Poles, nothing else matters. Besides, I am going to
die, and I prefer to die as a Polish general and not as a Marshal of
France." But the Marshal did not allow his gloomy forebodings to
interfere with his duty, and so fiercely did he face the enemy that
after three days' fighting his corps had dwindled from seven thousand to
a bare two thousand men. On the morning of the fatal 19th of October the
Emperor sent for him and entrusted him with the defence of the southern
suburb of Leipzig. "Sire," said the Prince, "I have but few followers
left." "What then?" rejoined the Emperor; "you will defend it with what
you have." "Ah, Sire," replied the Prince Marshal, "we are all ready to
die for your Majesty." Thus spoke the Pole, but many a Frenchman thought
otherwise and hurried from the stricken field. With their hated enemies,
the Austrians, Russians and Prussians surrounding them, the small band
of devoted Poles fought to the last. When the bridge was blown up and
ordered retreat was impossible, the Prince, drawing his sword, called
out to those around him, "Gentlemen, we must die with honour." Severely
wounded, with a handful of followers, he fought his way through a column
of the enemy and reached the bank of the Elster. Faint from loss of
blood, he urged his horse into the stream, and by great exertions
reached the other side; but the beast, worn out by the long days of
battle, was unable to clamber up the steep, slippery bank, and the
Prince Marshal was so faint that he could no longer guide his steed; so
horse and rider dropped back into the stream and were seen no more
alive. Two days later his body was recovered, and buried with all the
honours due to his rank, in the presence of the allied sovereigns, his
former enemies. Thus passed away Prince Joseph Poniatowski, whose
chivalrous courage had won for him the title of the Polish Bayard, whose
life had been spent for the welfare of his country, whose high military
reputation was sullied by no inglorious act, and who at the last chose
death rather than surrender.
