OINTIAMVI, Rtritr4rNTATIVIII Or TUC BA !AVIAN
Nona !--I have always looked upon the protedion of your
country as the bra i..tereft of my Crown. livery• time I have been
called upon to interfere In your internal affairs, I bavebeen Bruck
from the firft, with the inconvenitncics attached to the uncertain
form of your Govtrrunent. Governed by a popular affembly. it had
keen under the Whence of intrigues, and agitated by otighbotalng
Governments.

" Governed by an Mediae Magifiraey, every time this Magif•
tem, was rt newed produced a cribs of alarm to 'bereft of Europe.
and the fignal of new maritime wars. None of there inconveni-
encies ran be guarded againft otherwik than by an Hereditary Go-
vernment. This I recommended to your country by my councils,
when the Nit Coneitution was ritablifhal ; and the offer that you
bate made of the Crown of Holland to Prince Louis is continent
with your true interelts, and with my own ; and It Is adapted to
fecure the general tranquillity of Europe. France has been &M-
-cleod! generous, in renouncing all the rights which the events of
war had given her over Holland : but I cannot entrult the aeons
places which cover my northern frontier, to the keeping of an un-
faithful, or even to a doubtful hand.

'. Gentlemen ! I agree to the requett of their High Mlghtinr(fe.•
I proclaim Prince Louie King of Holland. You, Prince! reign
over Oils people. Their forefathers only acquired their indeper-
dente by the conftsot affillaace of France. Holland afterwards
brearsee allied to England; the ha. been conquered : Rill the owe.
bee eziftrnce to France. Let them then owe to you, their Ring,
the protection of their laws and their religion : hut never teak to
be a Frenchman. You and your heir. will pellet's the dignity of
COMtable of the Empire: Top will moiled the ttAties you bays

to fulfil !wawa me, and the Importance that I hove attached to 1
the fafe keeping of the ftrnng places upon my northern Brooder.
and which t cot:fide to you. Prince! maintain among your
troops that foirit which I have obferved among them in thelield of
battle. Chains the feminism. of union and love for France
among your new fubjedts. Be a terror to the wicked. and a fa-
ther to the good this is the eharadter of great Kings."
His Highneft Prince Louis then advancing to the
foot of the throne, Paid,

" Sire—l had placed all my ambition In facrificing My life In
your fervice. I have made my happinefs to conlift of a clofe infpec•
non into all thofe qualities that, equally dear to royfelf and others,
have fo often tellified the power and effeets of your genius. Per-
mit me then to expects my regret in feparating from you: but
my life and my withea belong to you. Igo to reign in Holland,
becautt it Is the &Ore of the people, and bedside it is your Ma-
jetty's order.
0 Sire! when your Majefty quitted France to go to conquer
Europe which hal confpired againtt you, you entrufted to me the
defence of Holland agalnft the invafion that threatened It. on
this occalion, I appreciated the cbaradter of the people, and the
quall:ies which diftinguilh them.
" Yes, Sir, I than be proud of reigning over them; but how-
ever clarion, the career may be that prefents itfelf, the allitrance
of your Majefty's conftant pratedtion, the love and patriotifm of
my new fubjefts, will give me the hopes of healing that wounds
occaGotted by re many wars, and the events that have accumulated
within the courfe of a few years.

" Sire ! when your Majefty fball put the left teal to your glory,
In giving peace to the world, the place. which you oxll then ro-
ma to my care, to that of my children, to the Dutch troops that
have fought at Aufterlitz under your infpedtico, That) be well
guarded. Unitcd by intereft, my people &all at the fame time be
attached by the fendments of love and gratitude to their Mug, to
your Majefty, and to Prance."
The Dutch Reprefenta;ives had an audience with
the Emprcfs, and were after wards conduOed to their

Oster ctlta N—l come, by order °lbis Mikity the Fmperor
sad King, to communicate to you the different arrangements,
which will afford the Senate, at the fame time, a frets opportunity
to applaud the great and generous views of our Sovereign, aid an

neighbours in the Imperial Family.

" His Majefty the Emperor and King confents, that his angu ft
Brother thould comply with the withes of the Dutch nation; and
when, fur the public good, he facrifices his dearclt affeitions. he
delerves Irvine comp nfation to Matfett, and to the French nation;
by continuing to his Highnefs the dignity of Conftable, and con-
fiding to him the guard of the northern frontier of the Empire.

that of Ponte-Corvo to Martha' Bernadotte.
" Holland, the corincalon between which and Paine.: wall hem'
changed but through mifunderftandlogs,renews it this day by the
great alliance, which becomes a more certain fatuity for the eftab-
l.fhment of peace, by depriving ambitious and renters neighbours
of all hopes of deriving advantage from the troubles infepanblo
from a fluduating Government, and an &dive hilaglPracy.
" The inclination of Prince Lolls, for bufinefs, his military W.
lens, the information which he early obtained by cooftant appif,
cation, that perfedt morality which makes him regard that as only

cure of the prerogative; there, Gentlemen, are the prefages of the

" Cardinal Fetch, Gentlemen, Is fo dear to you, that you can-
not fee with indifference the reward granted to hie virtues. The
elevation of thia Prelate to the EleCtoral dignity, will afford hill&
freth opportunities of doing good, and of giving his Imperial Ma.
jefty further proofs of his fidelity and attachment.

When hi. Majefty came to the Refolution of founding great
Hereditary Fiefs, be informed you, Gentlemen, that In fuch cad.-
laments he would find means to reconede the hnerefts of his

MESSAGE room ule MAJESTY rue IMPEROR acre KING'. 4:

" We have commanded our Conlin, the Arch.
Chancellor of the Empire, to acquaint you, that, its
compliance with the wifbes of their High Miglitineffea
we have proclaimed Prince Louis Napoleon, our
well-beloved Brother, King of Holland; the Throne
to defcend to his heirs male and legitimate, in order
of primogeniture. It is our intention alfo, that thp
King of H Band and his poll. city (ball preferve the
title of Conftable of the Empire. This determination
of ours has appeared conformable to the interefts of
our people. As Holland, in a military point of
view, included all the ftrong places which protefted
our northern frontier, it was neceffary, for the lieu-
, rity of onr States, that the colhoay of it fbould be
entrufted to perfons refpeaing whole attachment we
could entertain no doubts. In a commercial point
of view, Holland, being fituate at the mouths of
many great rivers which flow through a confiderable
part of our territory, it was neceffary that we fhould
have leeway &Om treaty of commerce which we jleall
conclude with her, flail &faithfully executed. in order that A
we may ad jig our morufaastrin: and commercial IRMO
with she commerce of that people.
" Holland, betides, is one of the firft political con-
cerns of France. An eleaive Magiftracy would have
produced this inconvenience, that it would have of.
tener espofed the country-to the intrigues of our ene-
mies, and that every frefh elation would have been
the fignal of a new war.
" Prince Louis, who has no perfonal ambition.
has given us a proof of his affeCtion for us, and of th
love he bears the people of Holland, by accept.ng
the offer of a throne which impofes upon him funh
great obligations.
" The Arch-Chancellor of the German Empire,
Eleaor of Ratifbon and Primate of Germany, having
fignified to us, that it was his intention to aopoint a
Coadjutor, and that with the concurrence e' the Mi-
nillers and principal Members of his Chapter, having
conceived that it would be for the advantage or reli-
gion and the German Empire, that be fhould appoin;
to that fituation our uncle and courin, 'Cardinal
Fetch, our Grand Almoner, and Archbifhnp of
Lyons, we have accepted the laid nomination in the
name of :11.1 Paid Cardinal. If this determinatiod
of the Eleaor Arch Chancellor of the Empire be
ufeful to Germany, it it no left comformahle to the political
imteryle of France.
Thus does the fervice of the country call far
away from us, our brethers, and our children ; but
the happinefs and prufperity of our fubieas are alto
among the objeds of our deareft affection.
