him its Egypt by the General Leonel,. to the knowled:e. of the whole army.. I returned to Frauce on account of my health ; and had !Ten at my country seat about a month, when General Berthier acquainted me that I might sows expect fresh orders. You broke. me; and in so doing you did well; it was my duty to obey, to make my rows:mate. lions to you, anti wait your determination. This error, the only one you can lay to my charge, as committed during the whole course of my military career, was occasioned by the persuasion you had wrought its me., that yon gave me preference Whim. Ittt, allowance being made for relationship. I 11310 never solicited to resign ; I have de. nounced no one person ; micondect his been p. • nerous and open, and by no means insidious and doubtful. You have endeavoured 'to excuse the dastardly and ungenerous behaviour' of your bro. sher.in.law ; you have used means 'that were very base. If there had been any denunciation, youvrould not have failed to meution the date, and to name - the .iersuns so denounced. Falsehood is a certain characteristic of degradation—;you sill) find by my observations that this is not your first attempt. • • I passed the time I was unemployed with the army, whiclecontititied for sixteen months, in the 4 perusal df my military books. I furnished many articles to the Editor of the " Young Officer's ! Guide ,•°' I signed . the act of continuation for life of your Consulship; I asked permission to go • into the Dutch 'service ; you consented to it ; but • when I waited upon the Ambassador, Schimmel ' penaittelt, at Paris, I discovered from his ember ' eaesuseert that you' had given him orders to make 'me this - answer, ." that he would write to his • ' Governnseni t but that it would take a consider , able time." General Bernadotte can relate to • you a verrdelicate, scene concerning you, which ' took place betwitt" him and me rospepting this . ' licence ; Lou . will s moreover, feud it in my obser. , . ' stations. • ' When I set off trejoin'the Army of St. Poulin. go,Gcnetil (3crthicr assured me that I should find ' shy cintiniision as General of Division with it.— ' 'Gen. RiAhembeau, of whom I inquired eancern. 4 , log it, latighed eery much at my credulity. I signed your appointment as Emperor ; I was (one of the Clenerals present when Murat made his • proclaiMalion'speech to Oil- at the Thuilleriet." I recollect well all that the,Generalt Massena, Au. • g i ereau, Macdonald, Bernadotte, &e. said to you, • sestet! as yoUr *nesters. You will find them very exactly related in my . observations. • I never solicited to sale with A tigereau ; I had • very goad reasons fur despising that man, who dis. , graces the General's uniform, and whose stupidity and greediness for plunder constitute him a true leader of banditti. Do yon recollect that General Bernadotte asked you to allow me to be at the ' bead of his stall' eitli the army of Hanover, and • • that you replied to him, ill my presence : " • neral Sarrazin has been it: Ireland; I would • have hint return 'thither!" It is possible that I may return there ; but it shall be to put the brave Irish on their guard against your perfidious insinu. • • *eons, and to advise them to be faithful to their ' own Government, lest they meet with the same ' unhappy f ite as has befallen France, which you have had the cruel address of forming into one vast prison. What you say concerning my conduct with the army of Brest is. of very little importance. What probability is there that you would have suffered me to be with that artily, 'if I had accused forty Generals; and forty land and sea officers settled in that place ? General Laniarque, now with the • army of Naples, will inform pin whetker . I was • deficient in point of courage, er the author of ltdit fate reFirt Which you diention. tour spies arc ' known ; there were two of them wills the army of Brist. They often suggested to "Ine the al:leisure of sending my Memorials to the ,Minister of the • General Police; but I correspondcd'wlth you for the behefit of mylroops and the' good of the sera . lid, as the Prussian (4enerals did with Frederick .Itte Great. ' • • • As you ha - Ye made - mention of MA Memorial, foe' . ihotilillihertaientioned Alen, and particu. •larlk thy Dissertation of the Ittli Frimaice, which is an analysis of all the good you haie;ver done. therein speak warally against the 'English Go.. ' . 'Merninent; but in your opinion I express myself 100 faSourably of the nation, whiff!, 'I style brave 'brad virtuous • and,partieularly when I speak of . ' the English virtuous; of Government, and call it' immortal and wise. You hare aide no men. 'jtion of Di' because you know , all that is said - against a GOveinnretit is bat a form of expression, "iillewabirein lime Of war.;' whilit the praise of a 'ileoplis'who arc enemies can only proceed from dm lentiment of the heart. ' tnever had any dispute with "General Ilentlelet. •You were displeased at my u riting to the King of Prussia on the 2311 or Jutie, leo6, three months before the battle of Jena. This Monarch, to whom I trensmitted my Dissertation of the lIA Frimsire,- condescended to send me an answer, dated the 3i of July following, in his own hand. - Yen *Cie jealous of my connexion with Prince Lewis of ITurtemberg, General in the Russia., • service, and uncle of the Emperor Alexander. I resided with this Prince for three months at •the Castle of Wcilbourg, belonging• to the Prince of Nassau, his brother•in.law. I commanded the *aunt! division of Angereates corps. In Germany,, • tes•well es at Brest, I made you aequainteil with the thieves and. marauders, whose actions were 'beyond my controel, and equally derogatory to the good of my troops, and the justice due to the 'inhabitants Of such countries as were under my . cottimand. •'' Its October, MC, I was employed in the 24th 'division, wider General 'Chambarthec e I coin... •minded in the department of the Scheldt at Ghent; the Prefeet was a robber, and you cleprivedhim Ills office. • • • In June, 11307,-you employed me with the army of.Aotiveip, ellninurelled ny General Feritio.• I • )sail rude r in., she young Prince'of Hohenz9llern: • . .

Goa. Vandamme l who was the 'Commandant of the 16. h division. Gen. Cham. barthac never commanded the 16th division. The public can ouly excuse the falsities, mistakes, and absurdities, of your narrative, by imputing,them to the finny into Which the accident of the Ist of Julys it the hotel of the Austrian Ambassador, must necessarily have thiown you into; and what the more confirms me in this opinion, is, that this narrative is dated on the 2d of July. Stationed on the island of Cadsand, I then be. polo detest you. All I did was out of regard for the troops. I establiihed an hospital in an empty house ; complaint was made of this cir. cumstance, and on the foundation of this com. plaint, you sent me to the camp at Boulogne, where I remained 15 months. You liatl your private rea. ions, which will be known some time hence; I saw them in your eyes when you riviewed at Boulogne, on the 25th of May. Fouche would not put me under an arrest because you•roily went upon suspicion. Foe ordered him to walk about Rowe, and you appointed as his successor one Savary, a man gs ready to execute all your orders; as he was to siren& Pichegru. If I had staid only four and twenty hours longer in Boulogne, you must own ) that I should hare been consigned to a dungeon at Vincennes, or to rho ditches of that castle, as was the truly unfortunate Duke d'Enghien !!!. I have constantly lived in the greatest harmony with General Officers and Public Administrators, that were creditable. I have commanded, or havibeen known to all the regiments that form the Fiends army, all of , 'Which esteem and value me; I have levied no con tributions hut in 'the country about Naples, by order of General Macdouald, for the supply of the military chest. I am welt acquainted with Germany, Italy, and France ; all the places of strength, and nearly the whole coast from the Scheldt to Trieste The entire substance of this Narrative is sup. ported by 84 official documents, which arc depo. sited in the hands of the Secretary of State for the Foreign Department, is London. I shall now produce only 15, of different dates; the remain , ing documents, under the hinds of Rochambcau, Berthier, Macdonald, Bernadotte, Murat, and others, will bo Iptieted With my observations; wherein, I beg leave to assure you, you will find some very striking details, the remembrance of which, and with some reason, you have nearly lost. When I quitted France I acted consistently with my obligation to honour ; when you iqueli. fled this use of the rights of man with the odious term of cowardly desertion, you judged of ray conduct according to lota own when you left Egypt. I gave you my oath of fidelity ; you swore to make justice the principle of , your liovernment ; you were the first to violate your oath, and you have released me from all engagements with re.. ipect to yourself. On the first favourable opportunity, ■nd the time is not distant, the whole army and all France will show you, that a tyrant cannot become SO through perjury without meeting his tneritedpu nishment. I shall end with using the same address to you as the Tribune Flawing used to the EmperoeNero: fig tibi quisquanimilitumfidetior fait, quamdiu ansari meruisti odisse cepi tiatido bliss:tut ergo commilitimes, tirannus Gallia , fncendiarisu 4u. passim, scc. 30. stc. estitisti.

She brings Dispatches for Government, which were landed with all possible haste, and sent off to town. It is said, they bring intelligence of War being declared by America against France. We have, however, to and the following, which throws some discredit upon that report : “.Lcovn's, 12 O'CLOCII, AUGUST 7.

We haves inserted, sosse interesting documents concerning this event.,-,?- In consequence of this change in the Government, some regulations favourable to. commerce were ee— tablished. The duties on the export of hides were reduced about 19 per cent., and those on tallow 12 per cent. The duties on other articles are pro. portionally reduced, but the scale was not settled when the vessel; the hfutine ) that brought the dispatches, came away. Tuts morning, wn'received- German Papers to the 26th of July, brought by the Gotteoburgh Mail; and Lisbon Papers to the same date. We have nut room to give any of the contents of thesc Papers at length. The following, however, is an abstract of all that is worthy of any notice. It is stated in the 41beille du. Nord, that it is supposed the intelligence of the rapid progress of the Rue. sian • arms against the Turkish Empire, :will excite ea insurrection at Constantiuople s moment it • reaches the ears of the ,populacel' and it is added, that the life of our . Ambits.. gilder at the Parte, We ADAIR, will ) in that case, be in extreme danger, he; havieg many enemies in the city, and even in the Divan. To give colour to the latter part of this report, it is said that the English Minister encourages the Porte to persevere in the prosecution - of the war, and prontises the Turkish •doverernent succours from England.
