He never knew how to reign either in the national interest nor even in - the interest of h►i• own despotism : he has.destroyed all that he tight to create, and re-created all that he ought to destroy : he re lied only upon force : force now overwhelms him—just reward of senseless ambit►on. At length this unexampled tyranny has ceased. The Allied Powers have entered the capital of France. N apaleou governed us like a King of barbarians .; Alexant'er, and hi 4 magianimmis allies, speak only the language of honour, justice, and humanity. They have just reconciled Europe to a !rave and unhappy people. People of France, the Senate has declared, that, Pl . epoleon Ms foifeited the Throne. The countiy is no longer withhim. Auother order of things can alone save it. We have known the ex. ceases of popular licentiousness and absolute power : let us restore the real monarchy iu limiting, by wise laws, the different powers that compwe it. Let exhausted agriculture re flourish under fa paternal Throne; let. commerce, bound in fetters, resume her freedom • let our youth be no longer cut off by arms before they have the strength to bear them; let the order of nature be no longer interrupted ; and let the i , ld men Lope to die before their children.! 114 p of France, let us rally past calamities are finished and peace Will pet an end to the subversion of Europe.
