" LOUTS, by the Grace of God, King of France a;id Navarre

'• To all our Suljects grcetina,
" France, free and respected, was enjoying, by our care,
the peace and prosperity which had been restored to it,
when the escape of Napoleon Buonaparte from the Island
of Elba, and his appearance on the French territory, seduced
to revolt the greatest part of the army. Suppoited by this
illegal force, he has made usurpation and tyranny succeed
to the equitable empire of the laws.
" The efforts and the indignation of our subjects, the Ma-
jesty of the Throne, and that of the National representation,
have yielded to the violence of a mutinous soldiery, whom
treacherous and perjured leaders have seduced by deceitful
hopes.
" This criminal success having excited in Europe just
alarms, formidable armies bare been put in march towaids
