EXPOSITION
Of Hie practices and machinations which led to
the Usurpation of the Crown of Spain, and tiie
means adopted by the emperor rf the French
to cawy it into cxccutibn—hv Don Pedro Cr.
v a i. i.os, first scrrttarv of slate, and df-nat
ches, to iiis Catholic Majesty, Ferdinand VII.
(Continued.)
c' Scarcely had he left the audience chamber,
when he began to ma.celhc tn ><t urg mt appliea
tions, to induce his majesty to meet the Empe
ror, assuring him thattliis attention would be ve
ry grateful and Mattering to his imperial majesty,
and he asserted so repeatedly, an l in sorb po ;
tive terms, that the Emperor’s arrival might b ■
expected eve»• moment, that it ww impossible
rot to givo credit to his assertions. I» was, in
fact, very hard to suspect that a general, the en
voy or an emperor, should have come nferelv for
the purpose of deception. ' ^
» _ The king, at length, yielded to so m.mv so
licittuions, and so many It..tiering hopes and as
surances ; and his love of his subjects, and ar
dent desire to contribute tot heir happ'ine-s, by put
ting an end to tins dreadful crisis, triumphed in
his generous heart over every feeling of repug
nance and apprehension.
. r‘ The day appointed for his majesty's depar
ture arrived. General S.iv; ry, all'ecting the
most zealous and assiduous attention to Ids ma
jesty, solicited the honor of «„cofnpnn\i g bi n
on his journey, which, at the farthest, could only
extend to Burgos, accoiding to the information
which he hud just received of the Emperor's ap
proach.
“ During his absence, supposed to he only for
a few days, the king left at Madrid a Supreme
Junta of Government, consisting of the secreL-.
ries of State, and presided over by his uncle, the
most Serene Infant Don Antonio, in order that
the urgent affairs of the government should be at
tended to.
“ Gen. Ssvary followed lien to Burgos, in a
separate cferriage, but the emperor not having ar
rivt-d there, lie used every exertion to induce his
majesty to continue his journey as Fur as Vitto
rio. \ arious discussions arose as to the course
which ought to i>«* pursued ; but artifice and per
fidy contended with honor, innocence and good
faith; and in so unequal a strife, the sain.i bene
volent intentions which drew his majesty from
Ids capital, urged him to proceed to Vittoria.
" Genord Savary, convinced that Ins maj, r> v
liml resolved to proceed no farther, continued Id's
journey to B. ycnm , with tic - intention, un-loiiht
cdly, ol acquainting the F.inneror with all ih.u
passed, and oTproi tiring a 1.-tier from him which
-should determine tiie king to sepal ate himself
Bom his people.
/vt \ ittoria, his majesty received mformati
hn that the ErQperor arrived at Bordeaux, Si was
on'.is way to Bayonne—In consequence of this
advice, the Infant Don Carlos, who had bet !)
waiting at Tolosa, proceeded on to Bayonne,
• wbtllieg lj|p had be invited by the Emperor,
who, however, delated Ins arrival some tints
longer.
“ Nothing particular occurred at Vittoria, ex
cept that the supreme Junta cf government :.t
Madrid having written that the grand duke ot
Berg had imperiously demanded that the favorite
should be rt leased and placed in his hands, liis
majesty did not think proper to comply with this
demand ; and in communicating this determina
tion to the Junta of Government, enjoined them
to enter into no explanations with the grand duke
respecting the fate of the pri soner.*
“ In the mean time gen. Savary concerted with
the emperor in what manner they should prepare
to give the finishing blow ; and while the French
troops in the vicinity of Vittoria were making
suspicious movements, he made his appearance
in that city, with the letter No. 3, to bis majesty
from the-Emperor.
To the contents of this letter, which were
r.cithcr ti-itteri'g nor decorous, gen. Savary ad
ded so mar}' and such vehement protestations of
the interest which the Emperor took in the wel
fare of his majesty, and of Spain, that lie even
went so ♦ '.r as to say, “ I will sufier my head to
be cut off, if, within a quarter of an hour of
your majesty’s arrival at Bayonne, the emperor
shall not have recognized you us king of Spain
and tiic Indies To support liis own consistency,
he will probably begin by giving you tbe title of
Highness, but in five minutes, he will give you
that of Majesty, and in three days every thing will
be settled, anil j our majesty may return to Spain
immediately.”
ms mcjesiy, However, hesitated sis to the
course which he should take ; but anxious tore
df cm t!ie pledge which he had given, and, above
a!), to relieve his beloved subjects from the cruel
*nxu ty in which they were, lie banished from his
heart every apprehension of danger, and shut
his ears against niy counsels, and those of other
persons in his train, as well as to the supplicati
ons of that loyal city, and determined to proceed
to IJayonnc ; his royal mind being incapable of
suspecting that a sovereign, his ally, should in
vite him as a guest, Ji>r the purpose of making
Jlim a prisoner, and of putting attend to a dynas
ty, which, so far from having offended him, has
given him so many striking proofs of its friend
ship.
“ Scarcely had his rdajesty Set foot on the
Trench territory, when he remarked that no one
came to receive, him, until at his arrival at St. Je
an de Luz, the mayor made his appearance, atten
ded by tfie municipality. The carriage stopped,
anti he addressed his majesty with the most live
ly expressions of the joy he felt at having the ho
nor of being the first to receive a king, who was
the friend ;«r.d ally of France.
“ Shortly after, he was met by the deputation
r>f three grandees of Spain, who had been sent
off to meet the emperor ; and their representati
on with respect to the intention of the emperor,
-was not the most flattering. He was, however,
now too near Bayonne l > think of changing his
Course, anil he therefote continued his Journey
There came out to meet the king} the
prince of 'Neufchatcl and IJuroc, marshal
of the palace, with a detachment of the
guard ot honor which the citizens of Bay
onne hart formed to attend the emperor, and
they invited his majesty to enter Bayonne,
where a place had been prepared for bis re
sidence. I Itis residence appeared to all,
and was in reality but little suitable to the
rank of the august guest who was to occupy
It. 1 his remarkable and expressive ne
glect formed a singular contrast with the
studied magnificence which the king had
employed in making the preparations a i
Madrid f< r the receptit n of his ally.
•* His majesty was doubting wlmt could
bfc the meaning of a reception that lie so lit
tle expected, when he was coming to pay
him a visit. His imperial majesty arrived
accompanied by a number of his generals. I
The king Went to the street door to receive
hint, anti both nmnan hs embraced eat *t o
ther with every n>k« n of friendship and af
fection. The emperor staid but a short time
with his majesty, anti they embraced each
Other again at parting.

yite Cue kii'fc tr» dine 'with hi* i material '
'vsty, whose c.nrrhiggs were coming to con
ey his majesty to the palace ot Mai ne:
this accordingly took place. The emperor
came as far as the coach steps to receive
his majesty, embraced him again ami led
him by the hand to the apartuient*provided
for him.
“ The king had no sooner returned to hi »«
residence, when gen. Savarv waited on his
majesty to inform him that the emperor had
irrevocably determined that the Bourbon,
dynasty should no longer reign in Spain
that it should be succeeded by Vs—and
therefore his imperial majesty required that
the kihg should in his own name and that
ot all his family, renounce the crown of Spain
and tht Indies, in favor of the dynasty of i
Bonaparte.
“ It would be difficult to describe the sur- |
prize with which tnc royal mind of his ma- '
jesty was affected, ahtl the fconstcrnatit-i
'vith which all those whj were nearest .o
h.» person were struck at hearing such a^iro
p..sition. His majesty was not yet recover
ed from the fatigues ot n toilsome journey, I
when the same man who had made him so j
j mnuy protestations of security at Madrid j
I aiul on the road, who had drawn him from
his capital and his kingdom to Bayonne, on
pretence of adjusting matters of the great
est importance to both States, andofliis be
ing recognised by i»is imperial majesty, had
the audacity to be the bearer of so scandal- j
ous a proposal.
“ On the following day, I was sent for bv ]
the emperor to|his royal palace, where I found
the minister of foreign affairs, M. Gliaui
pngny, waiting to enter upon a discussion of
the proposals verbally stated by general Sa
vory. I instantly complained of the perfidy
with which so important an affair was pro
ceeded in; representing that the king my
master, came to Bayonne relying on the as
surances given by gen. Savary, in the name
i of the emperor, and in the presence of the
dukes del Infantado, S. Garjos, 13. Juan Es
ciqusz, and myself, that his imperial majes
ty would recognise him at the very first in
terview between the two sovereigns, in the
imperial palace of Marac; that when his j
majesty expected to witness the realization
ot this promised recognition, lie was sur- I
prised with the propositions above .alluded |
to; and that his majesty had authorised me
to protest against the violence done to his
person, in not permiting him to return to ;
Spain ; and as a catagorical and final ah* |
su’cr to the solicitation of the emperor, that j
the king neither would nor could renounce j
his crown in favor of another dynasty, with
urn i:cmg wmiiing in me cranes which uc ow
ed to his subjects and to his own character;
that he could not do so in prejudice to the
individuals of his own family, who were cal
led to the succession by the fumdamental
laws of the kingdom, and much less could he
consent to the establ ishment of another dy
nasty, which ought alone to be called to the
ihrone by the Spanish nation, in virtue of
their orginal right to elect another family
upon the termination of the present dynasty.
“ The minister of foreign affairs insisted
on tlie necessity of the renunciation which
had been proposed, and contended that the
abdication signed by Char: s the IVth, on
the 19th of March, had net been voluntary.
“ I expressed my* surprise that the kiilg
should hc importuned to renounce his crown,
at the same moment that it was asserted
that the renunciation of his father was not
his free act. I wished however not to be
understood as entering into such a discus- ;
sion", as 1 could not acknowledge the smallest
authority in the emperor to intermeddle
with mutters which were purely domestic,
ana peculiarly belonging to the Spanish gov
ernment ; following in this respect the ex
ample of the cabinet of Paris, when it re
jected as inadmissible the supplications of
his majesty, the royal father, in favor of his
allv and first cousin the Unfortunate Louis
XVI.
