TEIEJNIAMNAL WIST Othe island by the new garrison, as well as the attendants of Buonaparte's, the Commissioners to watch him, their suites, Sze rccordingly all was immediately hurry and bustle. . 1 torisions ewerienced a sudden and enormous rise in rice . Fegs, which were before about 3 shillings a dozen. noir advanced to a shilling apiece; almost every other article of produce rose in the same proportion ; arms even land itself assumed an increased valu , . of 50 per cent. which is not mu, h to he wondered at considering the small extent of the isl Ind. an I the still smaller portion that is fit for cultivation, to fed the incvased number of mouths. Upwards of 9CO troops arrived out in the squadron under charge of the Northumberland. it great bustle took place en the I lth, in making preparations for Buonaparte's reception ; SO of the Company's soldiers were stationed to cuard th:. gates, and orders were immediately issued by the Governour, that no fishing boats were to be out of harbour after four o'clock in the afternoon. On the 15th the fleet arrived, when some persons from the town were allo''ed to go on board the squadron to dine. It was some days be fore all was ready for conveying Buonaparte to the house allotted for his reception. When he landed, he was dressed ill a green coat, white waistcoat, light coloured small clothes, white stockings, and cocked hat. The coat was trimmed with gold, and a plain gold epaulette was placed on each shOulder. • Ile held in his' hand an elegant telescope, and cast his eyes around him with great eagerness to survey the new objects ; possibly not without hope of noticing seme particulars, which might, on a fit occasion, assist him to escape. 'fire Company's troops on the islaild were immediately to be sent to the Gape, to do duty there. Copy of a letter from a gentleman on board the Nor thumberland. 44 St. Ilelena, 19. "The Redpole is just getting under weiLth for England, and I send you by her the following particulars ;--- « We arrived here on the 16th, after a very long and tedious passage, and landed Napolean on the 18th. lie is now living in the country at a gentleman's house of the name of Belcorne, until Longwood is ready for him. his followers are all tired, and heartily regret, I believe, their having accompanied him. Madam Bertrand, who ta'ks pretty good English, exclaimed to me to day, that the island was a complete desert, " the birth place of the demon Ennui." She wants to go back to Europe. already, to educate her children. 46 I dined four times with Buonaparte, mho talked very little at table, and generally addressed himself to the Ad miral. lle took very little exercise, about two hours during the day after dinner ; he dispatched his dinner in half an hour. General Bertrand and Las Casas are his greatest favourites ; the others he seldom held any conversa tion with. lie played at cards every night, either at 100 or whist; in the forenoon at chess. Ile retired early to bed, and rose very late. His spirits were generally bad, and they are not mended since he came here. " The island is very closely watched ; signals between all the ports in the island and the ships ; guard boats and brigs crdise round ; so that unless he can fly, it wilt .be impossible for him to escape. No one is allowed to be out of the ship after sun-set, and every ship is ready to slip at the first notice."
