• " Basque Roads, July is.
• 44 The disturber of the world is our's; I have ben
smile hours in his company, and have had conversa-
tion with him. Knowing his character as an indivi-
dual, his farce as a General, and his conduct as an
Y.:opera; the mind is lost in astonishment in seeing
these in the person of a stout, inanimate, and plain-
-1 king man, without s' feature or expression of
countenance indicative of any thing that can make
eu imptusiiin on the mind. Plis delivery is quick,
and his ideas flow most rapidly—he converses on all
subjects.
" Op seeing the portrait of Lord Hood in the Su-
perb's cabin, he remarked that he was die person who
threw all the shells at Lord Hood's lleet at Toulon.
" He declares that from the first he intended to
throw himself on the British Government it he was
TOR allowed to go to America; he liad determined
Levier to give himself up, or receive protection from,
the Emperors of Russia, Austria. or King of Prussia ;
!or although they were qottly single members of the
;ration, they ruled entirely their respectiie kingdoms.
By giving Mosel( up to the British nation,. he threw
lineselt on the generosity of every individual, and ac-
knowledges that in England only he is safe. He
ens, never was abattle so Severely contested as that
Ot WJteilbo. His troops- knew and felt that they
never bast more to gain, or more to lose, than at th.s
tins; and &lever had they fought h .rder, and they
were °lily overcome by the Supra iority of British di:-'
Opine and 13ittilh intrepidity. He was astonished
at the firmness with which his charges were received
and repulsed by our-troops—he spoke highly of our
cavalry, and acknowledged that ii the Earl of Us—
lualeihad not been wounded, he • would have been'
vie iniwner in two minutes: and he feels no
heAtation in sa)iqg that the Duke of Wellington
was a better General than himself.
4, I mention this circumstance, because in his
voyage to Elba, when it was remarked that the Duke
was the best General of the age, he answered, 66 we
have never met yet."

which time he retires to dine. He :hews himself fte-

at the peuple with his eye-glass; and his picture which
