Of the 2000 ships of war, and the bOOO transports of which the fleet consisted, eight ships only, which then happened to be out at sea, made their escape: these immediately set sail for Car- thage, but were all cast away, and every soul perished, except a few who were saved in a small boat, and at last reached Carthage with the dismal tidings of the total loss of the fleet and army. — Here we have presented to our view, in one short struggle, the entire destruction of more tb.an two hundred tho...usand human beings, if we take into account the number which must necessarily have fallen in the Sicilian army. And, if we take into consideration the many thousands of mangled wretches, whose existence, from that moment, would be rendered miserable; the destruction of property in the besieged city; tlie victinjs crushed to death amidst the ruins of falling houses; the cries, and shrieks, and lamentations of women and children; the diseases and the miserj' induced by terror and alarm, and the loss of friends; the terrific and appalling spectacle of 5000 ships all on a blaze, of ten thousands of burning and drown- ing wretches, supplicating in vain for mercy, and the oaths, execrations, and furious yells which would be mingled with this work of destruction, we shall find it difficult to form an adequate con- ception of the miseries and horrors of such a scene.
