The following ia from a Gazelle fiublishdd
at Raiisbon.
“ The Imperial dignity of Rome and Ger
many ceased to exist by the abdication of
the Emperor Francis in the year 1806. It
i indeed no longer existed for thi» long time
past but in name, with regard to Rome and
I tin: Roman empire; although the emperor
J and the political writers affirm the contrary.
11: is therefore certain that, from the year
1806, the Great French Emperor had a i ight
to assume the title of Emperor of the French I
and of the Romans, ii he had been desirous j
of adding any thing new to the glorious titles I
which he enjoyed already, and to decorate j
his brow with the fugitive emblem of a fo_ !
reign crown. A wise man despises the eclat i
which is not justified by possession The
year 1809. which has placed so many laurels
upon the head of Napoleon, also renders
I hi m master ot Rome He revokes the gifts
j which were oesrowed by Charlemagne, his
| illustrious predecessor, upon the bishops of
! Rome, and which the latter abused to the
I prtjudice of theiirspiritual duties, and of the
j interests of the people who had been placed
j in their dependence, Napoleon as first and
legitimate sovereign of R >me, may now, u.
sing the same rights as his illustrious orede.
ce-s ir,take the title ot emperor of the French
and of the Romans.
I he eagles which Charlemagne brought
from Rome, and wnich hV placed upon the
towers of his palace at Aix la-Chapelle, have
I been restored to the R unans'by Napoleon._
He makes them partakers ot his empire &
°f h'a gEn ; anda thousand years al ter the
reign ot Charlemagne, anew medal is going
to be struck bearing mis memorable inscrip '
tion : R novatio Imperii. When Cliarle- j
magne transferred the imperial dignity to
the Franks, he thereby established a new 1
western empire, which, after whole ccn..
furies of oblivion re appears with more
splendor; for Napoleon the great must be
Considered as the founder of a new wes
rein empire In this l ght, NAPOLEON
MUST HE LOOKED UPON AS A
PROVIDENCE 1SY ALL CIVILIZED
EUROPE!!!
‘'it is thus that peace will be completely
re-established in Europe The great num
ber of well-intentioned people, to whom the
power of Napoleon appeared to be tyranni
cal, when 'hey thought themselves exempt
Irom all kinds of duty towards him, & that
their opinion seemed to be the sole rule
of their conduct, will henceforth fulfil
their new duties with an inviolable fidelity.
Considered m this point of view it wi.l be
judged that the re-establishment of the wes
tern empire, by Napoleon, is a measure
which has been commanded, as much for
the interest of tiie empire as by the prin
ciple of his own preservation.”
