Gll4il4CT2.' OF DON,MIRTE. Na character was ever inore likely to attract the attention of posterity than that of Bonaparte. Not oats the conquests lie has achieved, the capacity he has displayed, and the desigis to which those con.itiests, and that capacity were directed, bnt his reveries his errors, and his fall, must render him sn nhject of peculiar interest, in the times that are to suteved us. Acting iii the most eventful period, and influencing its evenwi orertioreing and erecting depa-ins; anti crooning Soyereigus, and declining from all this into the condition of an exile' naval a pri,oner, his refines have secured him a place to the studies of future Stateinen,astal even ill the assiduities of those who read history as they read minatice—for the eutertaiiiment of its remarkable .and splendid vicissitudes. We may notice amalig the number of those instances which illustrate the prtiterlice inseparable from enutem rocuiy : I n c lement, find the talents of this extraorili wiry 01:01. have been often disputed. Hiselevntion from private life to the dignity of a throue, at u period when Franee was not deficient in the produc tion of able men; the variety a n d the inegui tilde of his su•Terzes ; the extent of his power, and the terror of tiame, hare not succeeded in rendering his ititelec tual elaitnA intelligible, to all understandings. But tale jitages from whom his reputation has most to apprehend, are those who, allowing his talents, eon tiartthein with the jnerposes to which they have been rendered subservient. At the satue time it wool,' not be fair to charge upon hint, exclusively, the evils of that military system under which the world Inai so long grained. Part of it must be attri buted to the restless disposition of the French people; pot to the unruly spirit which was generated by the Revolution; part to the indignant recollection of the conduct panned by other countries at the period of that great struggle, and, certainly, no small part to the genius and character of an individual who was Laairil by nature to govern its times of tumult, to supply the want ui hereditary claimity the exercise of ! personal conduct and severity, and pour the torrent of threw conflicting principles, which threatened ruin at lionie, upon the tuitions of devoted Europe. In the iirosevutiou of this arduous talk, which seems tit 140 Yr been "Winn eOII4IMGE L MI into a system for the establisliment of universal Empire, no dif ficulty could present itself that was not undertaken, 110 danger that was not encountered, and no prin. tilde that was nut either adopted, comproiniaed, or alraudottell. as the occasion might seem to require. Terrible alike to Monarchies and to Republics, he dictated siteceasiow., altered constitutions, blended or dissevered territories, and subverted laws. An t tent limit and ancient usage were equally the sub jects of a moving mid arbitrary scale. Ile dis turbed the geography amid •disdained the d of Europe; he defaced the regale,' of treats , and proseriptiou, nod opposed himself to the habits of centuries. ]low fir he might have succeeded to wards the accomplishment of his vast lb sign, it is imptmosilde to conjecture now; one thing, however, is clear, that his overthrow was prodma-d rather be a con, urrence of accidental circumstances, than by any direct eotiseeptence of the s) stilts 011014 which lie acted, orthe attempt to which lie fell a Perri aice—the premature said unexampled severity of the sinter, said the burning of Moscow, decided Lis fate. Were we to judge of loam at a monarch, according to our English 000t.ons. we ,Itutild find much to cell tore. stool even to detest ; but perhaps the Monarch of the French should be n mail that would lose his head in Englund. At all eve" it cannot be fair to try his merits, in this respect, by a standard to "itch he had we ides, and was hound. by no oh li'4ol.lll to morons them. The French People ure the best judges of the Governorate they would re fer, and it is No small evidence of his skill in the adaptation, that e•eio after this disasters, he lots kit rco;ret behind him, and that his slime is still citerishetl,rad his memory still dear, at a period when elosiste all utracloonents, whether natural or politleal, were nearly philosophized away.

Kraria's Hotel, Kildare-stiect. . . My Dean O • CowwELL-I'he ttatement relative to your affair with Mr. Peel, mad., by Sir Charlet Saxton, iii 77as eutretptiadent of this night, in which he says so little, and iiiimwessts no mach, of what premsl between himself and in on that :subject, renders it nes...miry that I eihool.l munirate to you, iu re4iilar nett r, Cite whole of what oc curred between us on both the days he waited uu me here, tray'lig you at libel ty to niake use you &raga of the information. When the public shall be informed, that be spent twenty minales with me on Theirtday, and forty-twn • ten gm Friday (the visit or which day, and the tilsjeet of it, be atudiously conceals), in discussiiig the tr.inszu:tiona which ranged both interviews, at.l shall contrast it wills the little he reports of what at have passed in such a space of time, they will naturally draw a cuarlasion different from the ohject he had in view, in making that statement. After lieariee", from you Sir Charles Saytun's communica tion buns Mr. feel, amt sat:sting the view you took ou the subject, I went to tie Otley's, where, lint Sliding Sir Charles., I mentioned to Mr. °Hey I came I.w the purpose of letting Sir (7. know :had he been (hnte) that I did not eon crive any 'hing which had passed between yon and him on that day, altered the relative positiou in which you and Ste. Peel heretofore stood, or rendered it, iu any way, .ueces nary that unit should main through me nay hostile comnia nicatinu to Sfr. Peel, but that if (*liar es uhtni:.l wish to sae me MI the subject, 1 would wait at home until six o'clock, leaving him my address. He came to sue nearly at that hour, and was prareciting to detail what passed hetwet n y.m and himself, until !interrupted him, by inentioning ahat I said an above, to Mr.( ft ley, and giving it :is say fixed opi nion that it aas not you a ltoshould cumin roc e any hostile penceedisig _ Ile the; re.s,med his narrative of what passed between himself and you, and added, that yon thliaglit Jiff:icon) Gene me eiti the .objet, for llioiezh you said yon would act under the cu:ktrul of your friends, yet, that ir.y friend win, would advice you not 10 staid to Mr. Peel, would be, in yk ur opinion Inuit, mistaken, and disappoint your wishes, sir words to that effect. Th's was the only point iu which your report and Sir Charles Staxom's, of your interview in Ibe moniing, did not exactly agree; hut this, and some ob servations on his part, tendiug to alter my opiuiuc , com pelled me to assign the reasons which determined me to de clic for yon as I hail done. I then told him, that the aspe rity of the language you hail used resperting Mr. Peel, while under the impression of receiving iil treatment from him, had hero so grossly offensive, that I still considered you to be the aggressor—that the English language did not admit of an expression more galling and de haring, than to say of any snail, he would not dare to do, in the presence of another, what 1w did in his absence—that it was a broad and niopialified eharze of (.1111'3111C1., which a denial, or even an offer to 'Wiwe minimideil, was lost sitifwient to repel—that thong!' it may tend. in soma resiwet, to Bit up the joins ' d ua l guAbused,yct it 111111111( go to punish the insult;—that this impressiiiii unit no strongly Axial on my mind, that I tubl you that if oil persisted in wishirg 11/ send a hostile com munication to Mr. Peel, I mast decline any further inter fi mom un yuun pout ; for that it would be an iinjutitiable prodigality of your owu life, and a wanton aggres-ion eon that of another. Aft. r some little pause, Sir Charks Saxton asked tne, if I knew what were the observations of Mr. Peel its Rodin mem, of w - hich you complained I c stolidly ark a !edged I had not seen any report which could justify your charge on him, hut that you socattunted to nee, lee had said, in quoting some /Passage of a speech of ..... that io 'studio. soils it was but nut ortlittury ofidieidual, but MO' who c o uld kid the Cat bulbs of Ireland to his own purpose*, aiod broadly insinuating that these stilettos:, were dishonest. Sir Charles instantly replied, t , Mr. Pull never said any smolt thing, nor any thing which justified personality to him ;" that he got every report he could, and tint no one bore any such featnre ; that he would avow every 1111 e he saw, or any thing he hod said. I agreed with him us far as those I had seen, and mentioned my regret al the observutibits which you had made respecting Mr. Peel. He then apologized for tees_ passing sue long on toy time, and as he was going, I le.saiti repented. to avoid ally IlliArlollCl ptami, as I then tobsers eel, toy tot . i .. i . on, that it was nut tlon frOli any hostile pro. cesvliuq should ettine, Cie the reasons I before stated. Thus ended the hitsiness of l'hurorley. ' Ott l'riolny, I waited nt home until one o'clock, thinking it probsthie that, on etensiolaratioti, he might judge it necessary to Conte to me again.

Previous to exaiiiihd , g the persons whose iliforma timi he sought, however, Int had himself gone ruund the fair. nun employed Brandi., a most intelligent and active mar slialsman, to go round to every lamb, stall, and swing in the` fair, and to ascertain the sums which each of them paid for their standing._ Mr. Bryce, the steward of Lord Kensington, again attend ed, and prothaced the patent, under which the tolls Ow the booths and swings, were, 2:l . aittvd to Sir Richard Riche, nn-. der whose title Lord Kensington held. This patent distinct ly confined the fair to St. Etsefludontew's-close, and West Smithfield. :lib.

As far us his ono judgment went, he thought Lord Kensington would, [or att nth mute compensation, be ready to relit:tots:l the patent by wh;ch tolls were granted ten him on the fair. %Ir. Perks was then exmniuctl. respecting the sums paid to him, on account of the City, for the standing of the dif ferent booths. He stated that the prices were various— Mr. Riehm dson ',aid 321, Saunders 201., and four others paid a like sum; the other booth proprietors paid ac cording to the ground their booths covered. The swings all paid 'a guinea, and some went as high as three gui neas and a half; some were lower. The swings in the fair amounted to about one littildre.l. He received money only fin dm, stalls and booths within Wet 4 Smithfield, and un derstood from those persons without the fair, that they paid nothing. Mr Solder was then examined. His evidence went to prove, that the City Marshals received various sums from the proprietors of booths, for the kst day of the fair—some paid as high as three guineas. They received nothing for the stalls without the fair, lu• had been told by those per son..., that nothim: is as paid by them f ur their standing. Mr. Brande, the Marshal's matt, said, that he had gone to the persona last alluded to by Nir. and they told him that they paid the inhabitants of the houses before which they stood, for the privilege of erecting their stalls. Four stalls opposite the Giltspur-ittreet Compter, paid six guise is to the Turnkey. _ . o After obtaining this irformation„ the Worthy Alderman declared his interition to bring .tlie subject before the Court or Aldermen at the ensuing Court, nimbi he wouitl lay he-- tore theta *II the particulars he hail been enabled to collect; and he trusted, if the fair was not totally altolit lied, that such regulations would be adopted as would tend materially to diminish the unisaticb in a future year.—That suceesa may attend the exertions of AMITIII4II Slilith must be the prayer of all those who biteu witnessed the critnes to which this sink of infamy gives rise..
