GENERAL SARRAZIN.

Loudon, Jul) 30, 1010.
SIR,--Rellig one. of your sutoeribers, 1 requeNt
that you will *mien in your Journal a letter which
1 hart written to toy uncle, to enable hint to appre-
ciate the pretended letter of Nladatne Sarrazin.
The moment my answer to the other scurrilities
of Bonaparte is printed, 1 shall take care to send
you a copy, for the purpose of your publishing such
parts as you may think proper.-1 have the honour
to be, Sir, your mod humble servant,
SARRAZIN.

To the Editor of Tug BRITISH PRIM.
COPY OF A LETTER FII0)1 GENERAL. SARRAZIN TO
HIS UNCLII, MIL IMAM, A lICRLHANT IN LENDS.

Mosr tiowouaak Unct.E—As the letter attri-
buted to Madame Sarrazin must have slaruntil you,
I hasten to write to you, in °Mee to tranquillize you
with regard to the fate of my spouse.

Previous to my departure from Boulogne, I. took
care to make a solid provision for her support, said
remitted her a year's allowance in advance. I cannot
give you farther information on this heal at the
present moment.
Madame Sarrazin is in possession of her family
property, which I never touched. A well-furnished
house cud wardrobe, a number of jewels, and other
valuables, completely attest the sincerity of my at-
tentions, amid my attachment fur her and my sun.
Bonaparte may confiscate what 1 have left at
Boulogne ; Madame Sarrazin, I assure you, does
not stood in nerd of it.

I challenge Bonaparte to publish the letters
written to my son. Bonaparte wi.hes to get that
ebild within his grasp. This is the object of the
letter, which was either fabricated, or extorted by
the violence of his ageuts trout Madame Sal-ratio ;
an excellem, but delicate and timid womsn.

Bintepaite mikes my wife say, that I have been
deranged these seven years. He represents her as
a native of ilwi4erlanil, though hr perfectly well
knows that she lb an English woman, haviag been
born at Eavttr.

My reply to Dumtp•rte will not •ppenr until the
6th of August, in consequence of • delay in the
printing. I shall take care to send you • copy
of it. The following feet. which is not stated in
it, will furnish you with • key to the hatred which
Bonaparte bears towards me :

Temyears ago, Madame Murat proposed to me
to do as so many other Generals had done, who had
dismissed the wires they had tarried iu foreign
countries, for the purpose of espousing Freed'
ladies. This was at a grand dinner which she gave.
followed by a ball. Madame Campan (according
101294 hr rawaar, Bonaparte's mistress of the revels)
teas there, with a number the Inuit fascinating of
her nymphs. I answered that I was an honest mail,
and would keep my wife. On my return from St.
Domingo) whither I was sent only in the expecta-
tion that I should there find my grave), I was cold-
ly received, and given to understand, that the re-
ligion, as well is the education of Madams Samurai,
prevented. her being received at Court. Madame
Murat also refused to receive her. My spouse sig-
nified • wish to visit her parents, who reside in
Switzerland; and Bonaparte having ordered me to
set olf, to take the comittaud in the Isle of-Cadsand
—to &sect her to join me, would have been to sa-
crifice both her and my cow to a climate much
more pestilential than that of the We of Walt he-
rrn. From that moment I adopted the resolution
to quit the service of Bonaparte, and formed such
arrangements as to make their fate independent of
mine. But for my wishes to accomplish this oh.
ject. I should bare been in England upwards of a
year ago.
What enrages Bonaparte against ms is, that he
cannot tell the public that I am • coward, • plun-
derer, or a blot khead. My remarks will prpve to
him that I am neither a madman, nova bad husband.
Though my father-in-law, in consequence of hi.
losses in trade, has been able to give me only half
the dowry promised -114.. I am net, oil that account
the less faithful to my engagements. Neither pu.
hey, nor the desire of miles, shall ever make me
seek for • divorce.

As Bonaparte causes all letters to be opened, it
was requisite that my correspondence should, in
every respect, be so conducted, as not only to oc-
casion ao suspicions, but also to dissipate such as
might be occasioned by malice or indisc►etion. I
koow that Bonaparte is no less cunning than he is
wicked. 1 had to regulate my actions and my
writings accordingly. He has been my dupe ; arid
it N the mortification he feels on that score, no
lees than his fear of seeing himself completely
exposed, iii cooseipience of the knowledge which 1
have had these fifteen years of all that has passed
in the interior of his family, which has been the
cause of the ridiculous reports lie has published re-
spe, ting me.
Until 1 can have the pleasure of seeing you and
your family, 1 beg you will accept the hooNge of
my sincete deotion.
*. 1 have the honour to be. tke.
