BONAPA RTE.

• •
The Brisk, arrived at Portsmouth from Mika, saw
the Northumberland, with three other ships. in
Mount's Bay, on Thursday afternoon, lying to. It
appears that Government relaxed in the orders which
they had given respecting the number of persons
who should accompany Bonaparte, as Bertrand, whn
had been ordered before a Military Tribunal by
Louis XVIII. for waging war against France and
the Government, was allowed to go with him, with
three other °dicers, as ctunPanions.—sSavary (Duke
of Rovigo), and General Lallemand, are still cot,.
fined in the Bellerophon, at Plymouth. Count
• Lobat and Count Casnbrone hue beerr landed and
sent on their parole, front Plymouth. Forty persons
embarked'with Bonaparte at Rochefort ; nineteen or
whom, including women and servants, have gone
with him. The ships which form his conveyance
and guard are.--
The

(113 g ship), Captain C. B. Ross; Ha-
vanuah frigate, Captain W. Hamilton ; Ceylon (troop ship),
Captain A. P. Hamilton; Bucephalus (troop ship), Captain
Westrupp ; Zephyr, Captain Rich; Peruvian, Captain J. K.
White; Zenobia, Captain Dobree; Icarus, Captain Akron ;
Ferret, Captain J. Sterling (c); Redpole, Captain Dituid.su ; and
the Weymouth (store sbip)—eleven

Madame'liertrand's attempt to drown herielf arose
from her. understanding, at the moment, th.st it was
intended to deliver up bee husband to Louis XVII I.

The fact of the Officers and crew of the Bellero-
phon remaining uncovered whenever honaparte chose
to skew himself on deck, has been denied by many,
who could not believe that they would so far degrade
themselves ; but it is undeniable. A Gentleman of
the grit respectabiky, writing to us on this subject,
informs us that having been drawn with the multi-
tude to see this bloodstained criminal,he one evening
proceeded to the ship. His boat had been but a short
time alongside, when he observed all hair d; and,
at the same time, Bonaparte came to the -larboard
gangway, where he remained about five minutes, and
then removed to the starboard gangway, to exhibit
himself to the boats assembled on that side, for about,
the same length of time—all on board remaining,
with their hats off till he went below. Some of his
Officers remained on deck for some time after, and
wore the three-coloured cockade. . • •
The following is part of a conversation to which
we have before alluded, held with Bonaparte on
Wacky last, by Lord Lowther, Mr. Lyttleton, and
others

He was asked his opinion of the British infantry.
He replied—" Long.wars make good soldiers ; the
cavalry of both nations, he said, was excellent ; our
artillery had derived much improvement from the
French. Of the Duke of Wellington, he seemed to
avoid giving any opinion.
To a question about Louis XVIII. Ile said—to He
is a good soil of man, too fond of the table and of
pretty sayings : he is not calculated for the French.
The Duchess of Angouleme is the only pan in the
family. The French must have such a man as myself."
One of his attendants, Bertrand, we believe, gave
his opinion of the Emperor of Russia, that he was a
.good man—his heart better than his head—that he
did not think him a great man. Boryparte, taking
a pinch of snuff, and whiling hit head almost in the
face of the speaker, replied—" Ni sssi nme plus," (nor
I neither.)
He broke out into some invectives against the con•
duct of the Allies : called it perfidious, treacherous.'
" But you seem to forget that you were in Elba in
virtue of a solemn treaty—that no molestation was
offered you. yet you left it in violation of the faith of
that treaty." Bonaparte replied,"
1 was an indepen-
dent Sovereign—l had a right to make war upon
another Sovereign—upon Louis XVIII. if I chose.
I did do it, and I beat him with a few hundred men."
Touching upon St. Helens, he seemed not only
,i4dignant, but surpriaeJ at being sent there. " 1

would have given my word of hon Our to hivi re.
inaincd quiet, and• to have held oo political corres-
pondence in England. I would Item pledged myself
:not to quit the place assigned me,but to live as a simple
indivjdual."" That seems to be next to impossible ;
for though you have had great reverses, you mild
never so far foget what you had been as to cra: .ive
yourself to be, or conduct yourself as u simple indi-
vidual." " But why not let me remain in England
upon my parole of lion(hir ?"—t, Y,.14 forget that
some hundreds ot French officers violated their parole
of honour, and that not ouly you dil not express any
indignation against them, but rLce'ved them with ply-
ticular distinction—Liefttvre sieltes for in.

There are also scraps of minor interest, comprising
