Firft Conful, be proclaimed Emperor of the
French. Let the Imperial title and power be here-
ditary in his family. Let Liberty, Equality, and
the Rights of the People be preferved entire ! Such
is the with of the Tnbunate ; fuch is the national
with; Inch is the cry refounding in thole vet terri-
tories which you have confolidated, embellithed, and
rendered proud of your glory ! Such has lung been
ours; and we fbould have proclaimed it fooner, had
we not feared to weaken the merit and eloquence of
thole which are addreffed to you from all quarters,
and of the bluffing, which re-echo around you. We
have been able to keep back the ezpreffion of a fend-
mem that would overcome us, and we applaud our-
(dyes for having given Europe time to judge whether
you are dear to Frenchmen. On the 18th Brumaire
grateful France would have applauded thole inftitu.
wins which would have then given you the empire :
you would have made her happy under a title which,
you have rendered illunrious, but which no longer ,
fuffices for your greatnefs and her affedlion;
surfed in fecret, feelings which fhe can no longer
conceal; leadenly impelled by the crimes of Eng
land, the nation has broke filence, and the world has
jug now heard its acknowledgments aad withes. The
troops of the camp of St. Omer knew that the natio&
would offer to you a diadem; they refereed for them-
(elves to implore you to cover your auguft head with
it. They ardently defire to tender to your paternal
and puitant hands the oath which the French army,
se the lath of July, offered in good faith to that de.
generate family which coon detached them from it,
by trifling with its own engagements. An all power.
ful motive operates on your generous heart, while
the intereft of forty millions of men hardly allows
you to deliberate. It requires the facrifice of your
perfon ; it claims your family, which has difeovered
fo many talents, and promifes us nothing but virtues.
You owe it to your own glory, to put the feel to
your &Mime inftimuons. by majeflically placing that
cheriflsed family at the fummit of the edifice, to fie
for ever the attention of virtuous Citizens; to anni-
hilate guilty hope, and to prefent to the French,
chiefs worthy to govern them. Accept for her and
yourfelf, the fairentribute of gratitude ever offered ;
and the engagement you will take will enfure to fu-
ture generations the happinefs wc already owe to
your favour. (Signed)

TUESDAY, MAY es.
Wrrs•Tocaaov.-HoUday at the Public Offices.

Aki late hdurlaft night a Hamburgh mail arrived,
whicis hal brought us a copy of one of the food impor-

Cant State Papers that has appeared for a long time.
From the firfi ileps taken by the Court of St. Pe-
terfburgh, on receiving the news of the murder of

the Duke d'Euo HIEN, namely, a public mourning;
it was plain that it would be followed by fome other

Reps, tellifying the abhorrence in which the aft was
held by his Impartial. MAJESTY, and calculated
to fecure the independence of Europe from fuch
a grofs violation of the Laws of Nations in fu-

ture. The fubjoined paper needs no comment.—
The pability of any fatisfalory explanation being
afforded by.the French Government, in the prefent
flay of things, can hardly be conceived; for the
Note of his IMPERIAL MAissry is not the appeal of

imbecile pride, which only leeks a pretext for acqui.
efcence. It is the language of incenfed dignity, of
confcious reditude, of wounded juftice, of the Chief
of a great nation, confident of the Divine Protec-
tion, and well aired that his condue will be ap•

proved by every honeft man in Europe. It does
not require a fpirit of prophxy to forefee what this
mutt lead to, efpecially when his for PERIAL Mayssry
(ball be made acquainted with the prime motive of
BONAPAILTIA horrid a&, a with to int off the MCC of

the Bootees:, a motive made fufficiently evident

by the open proceedings which immediately followed
for his afcending the Throne of France, and affurn-
ing the proud title of Imperial Brother. Will the
Emperor ALaxaansa ever acknowledge him in that
relation ? Will the other Powers of Europe acknow-

ledge his title We unit not. We hope none of the
Powers of Europe will ever fo far lofe fight of their
own dignity, of jaftice, and of their doty, as to ac-
knowledge an ufurper who feems to fet at defiance
all laws human and divine.

The other snicks by the Mail are rendered com-
paratively trivial by the importance of the intelli-
gence refpeiting the condo& of the MAGNANIMOUS
As.s:aanaa. The news, however, from Egypt,
contained in the fubjoined letter float Conllantinople,
is worthy of attention.
