IMPOItrANT FRENCIf STATE IMPER.- 44 By the command of his Majesty the Emperor and King, my most gracious Sovereign, I transmit to your Excellency the following erfidmial commu nication. It displays an impartial view of she great question'of peace and war ; it thews clearly the source from which the past and present misery of inaakind originate and flow. s , Had, some centuries ago, the British islands been swallowed up in the seas that encompass, Mean, the European Continent would have contained only a grand and united family. Witaessing its sueerior civilization and prosperity, the inhabitants of the other parts of the world would then have strived to obtain with it social compact, cr a palitiCal adoption: The slaughter of generations, and the devastation of nations, would then have been tinknnwn. A slight chastisement would then have been sufficient to inti midate the refractory, and to correct the disobedient. The true GOD would then have been worshipped by all nations. Dutiful subjects would then have hailed their Prince as another Providence. But when men begin to canvass the adoration of their heavenly CRP.- ATott, they will not long hesitate to assail the prero gatives of their earthly Sovereigns. Rebellion is the twin brother of impiety : anarchy and atheism are their common offspring. The English Wicklitr had the sacrilegious audacity to propose innovations in religion, long before the Bohemian Huas and the . Saxon Luther proclaimed themselves heretics. The latter would not have dared to stir, had not England i already distributed its poison among the Germans; they merely took advantage or a contagion, suffered to become popular by the ignorance and vices of the clergy, and by the apathy and impolicy of Govern ments. Since this time, in particular, England has never been quiet within herself, and has never ceased to disturb the tranquillity of all other States. , Air might have been foreseen, the success of the religious innovators encouraged the attempt of political incen diaries. The Continent was inundated with the blas phemous end perverse reveries of English anti-cliris. tians and English anti-monarchists. They sapped the very foundation of eoci il order. To prove their, thorough car tempt for all institutions, divine as well as sacred, they opened their temples to the most ig norant and vicious of fanatics, delivered the most virtuous of their Kings into the h eels of the most ferocious of regicids. How many millions of Conti nental Europeans have not bled, because these Islan ders had with impunity braved their GOD and butch ered their Monarch ? (Alas ! said, feelingly, his Imperial and Royal Majesty°, without their enor mous perpetrations, Louis XVI. might still have reigned, and a happy security been my lot. Supreme authority is but an inadequate indemnity for my anxiety and labour to be the worthy sovereign of the greatest of nations . ) fa fact, if the infernal assassins 'of Louis XVI. were debased Frenchmen, they had been tutored by English sophistry, they had been misled by the 'maples, or 'educed by the-gold, of i the English factions. Is it not England alone which 1 at this moment distracts Europe, and causes the blood of its children to be lavaed on Turkey, Ger many, Spain, Sicily, and Portugal ? Has not his Im perial and Royal Majesty almost yearly, and in the midst of his most splenid achievements, presented the olive branch, always interwoven with laurels, to un grateful England ? How often has he not, from the. bottom of 'his patriotic soul, in vain exclaimed— is Englishmen, I love you as men, and I esteem you as warriors ! Let all human carnage be at an end ! Let outraged humanity recover its too long lost rights ! Let us be friends upon terms reciprocally honourable ! Let our future rivalry be to enlighten, instead of destroying our fellow-beings !" But his Imperial and Royal Majesty has addressed himself to a Government too weak to dare to be just, and too powerful not to be able to do mischief; and to a na tion too selfish to feel for the sufferings of others, and too licentioueto attend to its real interests. It cannot longer be doubted, that mankind must continue to be disturbed, until the Constitution of the British Empire is reformed in a manner more congenial with the spi rit of the constitutional charters, which at present se cure the dignity and the power of sovereigns, and the obedience and safety of the subjects of the Continent. —To effect such a salutary reform in the British Islands, the principal European Cabinets must be unanimous in their resolves, aad firm and vigorous in their proceedings. Exueeen MUST FALL PHO. STRATE 1F THE CnNTINSINT lILMALN LT:llene. The division and weakness of other States compose ber g whole strength. Another Constitution mast he offer ed her. It she prudently adopts it, her independence and dominions will be guaranteed ; bu: it she is blind and obstinate enough to refuse, a solemn decree of all civilized governments will repudiate her for ever from the great family of the European common , wealth; and she shall be - ranked for the future among the piratical States of Africa. No more neutral: shall be endured. Capital punishment: shall be 4i:tell on thel master and crew of Me ships of any foreign country Ira ing with her • and the law of high-treason shall be 1 executed on smugglers, purchasers, and sellers'of her 1 productions and commodities. These plans and re gulations may at an imperfect view appear rather severe ; but without them, a truce alone can be sign. ed ; but a peace can never be concluded between her and the Continent. This severity towards her is, therefore, a real humanity with regard to all nations upon the globe, not excluding Great Britain herself. This fact may be proved without any diiliculty, or the possibility of a contradiction. If Englishmen , were made of those materials that compose all other people, it would require little knowledge of the hu man mind to foretel the most flattering issue, without resorting to extremities ; but they differ totally from the rest of the human species. gg Who can deny, that a British King, according to the organized constitutional anarchy of his king dom, is now the most humble of slaves ? When the monarch is not free, how dare his subjects talk of liberty ? The truth is, that the bondage of English men becomes heavier as it ascends; it emanates trom the lowest of the rabble, a set of petty tyrants, igno rant and brutal, corrupt and oppressive. gg is that Monarcu not a slave who is deprived of selecting his own counsellors and savants ? Who, during . a reign of half a century, has, among scores of ministers, not been surrounded by ten he could like or trust; by. six, he could love or esteem Are the fetters of that royal parent light, who dur ing nainthe . ie forced to see ,and bear 4 tocluiN . ! Pausparte, \, 'son the butt of the 'nest malignant passions, of the I;nost malignant and debased of men ? Do these Iministers deserve the name of freemen, who are ob. ' , liged to be undutiful and ungrateful to the Prince fah° has elevated them ; to flatter a licentious mob. that despise and insult them ? What must we , think of the heads or hearts of sworn royal cOunstlioro who aim not save tfte bosom of their Prince from torture, and the character of his child from unjust ignominy ; though they must know that the tormentors are tke most profligate of villains, and the most unprincipled of conspirators ? What must be the standard of the honour of a nobility, that not only not Literferes be. tween the infamous assailants of a Prince tithe blood, but suffers some of its own members to act as accoin plices in the assault ? Can these representatives of the people make any pretence to liberty, loyalty, or patriotism, who do not easel or punish the factions among them that try to stab monarchy, by bespat tering the son of their monarch ? What freedom, or what loyalty must these pretended friends of the, throne possess, .oilio, to spew their attachment to the Royal Family, purchase openly their fikuresileace about one of the sons of their King, whom it was hardly possible any new slander could degrade, more than onnaturally to involve another son of their King ittthe disgrace of his brother ? Can any decency or any loyalty be sopposed to exist among the citizens of the first city of the British empire, who not only join the wild fiends of their Sovereign every where, Out encourage the senseless pratings of insolent and norant shopkeepers, never opening their mouths ut to babble impertinence, but to bawl out treason ? Did a single count; interpose in the shainoiolly and cruelly audacious hunt of the royal victim ? Did not, us the contrary, every county emulate in this race of I :nf *my which should be foremost to wound the feel. ing of a venerable King, and to recouspence the out. ragenus perpetrations of the bitter enemies of his do mestic peace as much as his royal supremacy ? Is it not evident, even to the most superficial obsereer, - that either sound morality or rational liberty must be wanting in the British nation ? If it would be un charitable to suppose the former, it would also be ri. dienleus not to see the tutu absence of die latter. o In Great Britain tactiim meddles with every thing and every body ; even the King is factious in self-de fence, for self-preservation. Have not, however, both in ancient and modem times--both in Greece and France—both in Kerne and in England—have not 'factions always been the most oppressive of despots ? Have not factions always, and every where, been the companions of licentiousness, and the assassins of freedom ? Have not factions at all times been into lerant, daring, unjust, and incorrigible ? To judge by the scandalous scenes in the British Islands, which the indignant Continent has lamented of late, little hope remains that the (actions there would desist front their nefarious deeds, were even France, as she might do, to produce damning evidence, for centuries past up to this very time, of every chief of faction; of every usurper of the name of patriot ; and of etery candidate for popularity in Great Britain, having either ,zed his puce to, or intrigued with the enemies of. his country—either accepted' bribes, or received . instructions, from rival or inimical Cabinets. Though the majority might be convinced, a desperate mino -1 rity would command. In England, as has been the case in France, factions can never be mended ; they must be extirpated. Some few persons, ambitious or bankrupt in characters and fortunes, will always, under the existence of the actual constitution of a Royal democracy, find opportunities to mislead the ignorant, and to head the needy and disaffected, in committing excesses dangerous to the peace of Eu. 'rope, by contagious examples. " It belongs to History to recapitulate the many recent acts ot the daring spirit of British factions, and Qt their inflaesite on the internal and external politics of Great Britain, of their crimes towaras humanity, of their cornilv n ferscity and barb. , rity. But lisct trey not power, art: orampling under their lott a Prince of the Royal blood, to eared the exploits of a Gmeral, who deliberated, when he ought to have acted, who advaa ced when he slo,uld 'have retreated, and wnose retreat was a disorderly flik,hc before a handful of pursuers— while they force another General to resign, mough vic torious; because the climate, the dermas, and utter unforeseen occurrences, prevent him from succeeding to the whole ex•enc oleitravagant expectations ?Hoar sheyoot forced their King to leave unpunrslwd a Nlito cal agent*, who deserved to be impeached for want of ability or ot integrity, in disubeyiag ;Ind disregarding his instructions ? Have cloy nut forced their King to leave unrewarded intotibcr poistkai agent t, whose firmness, and whose obedience to the orders of his So vereign, exposed him 'to public insult and personal dangers ? Have they not forced their King to swal low, without daring to resent, these and other Provo ' Cations, tiseash ofered by the avert weak and etratinsibie , 1 6f tGovera,ttcats ? Cut in all Ile branches or the con stitaticall establishments of Great Britain, factions sway an anarchical iron sceptre, contounding, dcrang • ing, and invading all order. Has not a Captain in the British Fleet, cruizing in Europe, draggc". his Admiralbefore a Court Martial ? 'Cliouga era lat ter has been honourably acquitted, have oat factions Shielded the accuser from punishment ? Have net OffiCers serving in the British army in India seduced the soldiers to mutiny . ? Have they nut, backed by faction, added rebellion to insubordination, and held out the most dastardly and perjurious proceedings as meritorious acts of patriotism and of retaliating jus tice ? Is not the licentiousness of the Bri:isli , leis such, that, protected and patronized by factioos, a convicted libeller §, published trona his prison the most inflammatory, of essays, defying the laws, and exciting civil' discords ; insulting equally the Judge wbo condemned him, and the Vero want that car ried their sentence into execution ? Has net a Chic!' of Faction fi • who is also a Member of Parliatne. • honestly told his assembly, that the nation was is t 7. presented by its Representatives, and that their cu, try was not Worth defending ?
