. LETTER FROM THE DUK, oF 01 ANS.) 'To THE
Dtigl ()I, WELGINOTON.
This letter has gust been printed in aernino,
sander the • title of " Lettre du Due d'Otranto aq
-Due de Wellingt)4, ..LoritirtS. 1816." Wl,cilicr
it is th,e same which linoottoAttz, hooksellei. of
Altenburg, has alvertised, will soon appear. A
separate dedication is prefixed to it, which is as
follows :4--- ..
t. " MY LORD,---All the letters which I receive from Paris,
speak of your kind sentiments towards inc. From all sides I
• learn, that upon every occasion yOu freely and itilequivocally
. .do justice to my admiration. My gratitude leads ate, at this
`moment, to exceed the boundaries of the usual expression of
it. I resolved to send you some lines of acknowledgtuent, and
/to make you acquainted With some of the secret caases of the
hatred of my enemies, and, if possible, to add something to
,the Sentiments of your respect and the ilitvtest which you
have testified towards me. ' I coo.t. not i 1
Coale to I COddthion ;
my soul felt itself impelled to lay itself wholly upen to you.
I have written a hook to you ; may you receive it with kind-
l?ess, and read it with indulgence. At atm; her time 1 shall
: . examine the law of condrinuation that has been published, as
melt as the inteitlioakq indite ing nee in it without veitturing
to pronounce my nadir. oile' niu:t lie wholly blind to hope
that the King, who in the must so:rein and inviolable man-
ner suffered an exception to he extended to me, would not be
! • ,incensed if iiii ordinance were laid before him to sign, in
i.
..li svhiell my name was included amongst the number of the ha-
:
Mailed, by virtue of a law which lia§ not teemed me. I eau-
not pussibl) imincile the King's letter, in which be calls me
to the \ ',inistry of the Police, in which hue names .Me his Mi—
',lister et Dresden, with an ordinance of instdshment signed
ity the saute hand. PoNterity would ask the cause of this
strange contradiction : it .could not willingly suppose that
the motives which did not hinder the King from receiving me
into his Ctuneil: and into his entire confidence, at the mo-
ment of danger, had removed me from it, and banished me
from my country, when the danger was believed to be re-
moved, Who could build upon the sacredness of the Royal
Word, if the Chambers had the right to abrogate and itnnilii•
late the effects of it ? Who would believe in the Constitu-
. thin, if the Chambers had the right to exclude one of tileir
Members, and to judge him even without pronouncing his
name? Where, after 'such a violation, would Europe find a
Government in Pramee ?
