PARIS, MAY 14.

This morning, at nine o'clock, the inhabitants of
the Faubourg Saint Antoine proceeded to the Boule-
vart Port Saint Antoine, and the inhabitants of the
Faubourg Saint Marceau proceeded to the Boulevart
of Austerlitz, where they formed a junction. They
set out at eleven o'clock, and defiled along the Bou-
levarts to the Rue Napoleon, whence they marched
to, the Thuiaeries. A military band accompanied
them. M. Richard Lenoir, Member of the Legion
a Honour, and Chief of the eighth Legion, was at
the head of the Confeolcrates of Saint Antoine. The
shouts of Vive PEmltereur were heard tho whole way.
_ Wren these zealous Citizens were drawn up in the
Court-yard of the Thuillcries, the Emperor mounted
hi; hot w, and the Deputies were permitted to harangue
him. The Emperor replied as follows :

the Thailinks, Deputation from the Electoral
College of the department of the Seine and Oise,
headed by the Due de Plaisance (Marshal Le Brune)
who spoke as follows :'
" Stitt —The Electoral College of the Seine and
Oise come to express to your Majesty what it felt in
the days of grief, and what it feels in the days of
hope.
" Great misfortunes have befallen us ; the greatest
was that voluntary exile which you thought you
owed to the safety of the country.

" foreign armies in the midst of us and foreign
Powers commanded a peace in Paris. We do not
feel our losses, we do not regret the conquests of the
Repnblic, nor your's. But Glory—without glory
what existence is there for Frenchmen ? Without
glory, Peace itself, desirable as it is, is bitter to us—
It afroscls us neither security for the present, nor
safety for the future.

" Speedily a Government, which wished to revive
the past, which tormented our inquiutudes, and which
agitated the passions of those who flattered it, brought
us nothing but fears without hope.
"A frightful veil was extended over France ; civil
war was called for even by those who were likely to
be its first victims. Every fear vanished when you
appeared. You re-appeared, freed by the non-execu-
tion of treaties from the ties which you had imposed
'upon yourself.
44 On the report of your return, and particularly
when your sentiments and thoughts were made
known, hope re-entered.our hearts. Your tears flow-
ed over beaten and h wuiliated France.
44 You wept at the recollection of the private af-
fections which you had concealed under the veil of
power, which the misfortunes• of the times had cau-
terized afresh, and which your goodness had hastened'
to clean ize.

•' You I;ad the courage to regret exploits which
had disturbed France and too much alarmed foreign
States.

You
.have perceived that the nations were not
great nor powerful except as they were free ; and you
called upon that pure liberty which was alas, the too
fleeting idol of our revolution, and that equality of
rights so much calumniated, which will alwa) 4 be the
mother of the public virtues and of public pro►perity.

•1 You have taken away the chains upon the free-
dom of thiuking; you have neither dreaded the dis-
cussions of the Representatives of the People, nor
the publicity of the deliberations of a Chamber of
Peers : you have restored to us our elections in all
their latitude.

a Thus France is reanimated at your voice—every
thing has 'resumed new life and slew vigour—all are
arming to defend their country when attacked : but
you have also proclaimed the inviolability of treaties,
and justice, like force, watches over our frontiers.

" Doubtless foreign Powers are flow measuring
their situations with ours—without doubt, our return
to the principle of a mild liberty and a wise policy,
will reform those fraternal ties which united other
nations to the interests of our rising Revolution. We
dare still, therefore, to bop; for peace, and we do not
fear war.
" Enjoy, Sire, a situation which is your own work.
After having been the greatest of conquerors, be at
length the most pacific of Sovereigns. Your glory
requires it, and our happiness demands itl"
His Majesty answered—

" I thank you for your sentiments. We all with
for peace, and we are all ready for war. The nation
at no epoch of her history has iliewn more unanimity
and more energy. In the event of war, every thing
presages a .happy success. The emergency is, how.
ever, great: I expect much from from the patriotism
and intelligence of the Chambers. I have learnt With
pleasure the sentiments which animate your assembly
and the elections which you have made."
NOTES OF sire SIONITECIt ON THE IMAM IN THE
HOUSE OF comatoris RESPECTING SICRAT.

AU the letters (plan) quoted by Lord Castle-
reagh, and those of the same nature, which hr has
brought together in the shape of documents, submit-
ted to Parliament, are- falsified. These fabrications
are.so odious, we may even say, so impudent, that
we cannot conceive that any Minister could have re-
course to them*to.just y his conduct,
We scorn to think that Lord Castlereagh made
use of these pieces, knowing them to be false. We
must therefore suppose that he has been completely
the dupe of some intrigue ; but what shall we say of
a Minister who is so easily deceived in. such important
affairs ? The first letter quoted by.LordCastlereagh is
d tted, he says, from Nangis, the 17th February, and
vas written by the Emperor t 6 the Queen of Naples ;
according to him, it commences with these words :-
1‘ Your husband is very brave in the field of battle,
but weaker than a woman or a monk when he sees
not the eat my. He has no moral courage." • ' •

These words are literally found in a letter, a minute
of which is now before us, and which was really writ•
ten by the Emperor to the Queen of Naples, from
rontainbleau, the 24th January, 1813. ThelEmperor
had then arrived from the campaign in Russia, arid
bhad left the King of Naples at the head of the army.
l'ience the letter commences with thesiwords, which
;,have been 'cat-tinily' suppressed :-"" The' King left
the army on flip IGkh. Your husband is It •ery,bravt
man,":4c. acc: Only the Paisaga quoted aboie is
siiiitleicipusd'to make this lOtter,'which relates:solely
to the then existing eirepnisCances, agree with the

date of Nangis, and establish, by this striking false- I
hood, the consequences which' have•.been deduced
from it, against the conduct of the King of Naples,
with rrspect to the Allicit the following has been sub.
stituted in the faluifizd letters produced by Lord
Castlereagh ;
44 He was afraid, and never ventured to pass a
moment but by me or with me. Convince him of
his absurdity. When he quitted the army without
my orders, I foresaw all the bad counsels which
would be given him. I am, nevertheless, more satio-
6ed with the message which he has sent me by you.
If he has sincerely repented, he will watch the mo-
ment to prove to me that be is not as ungrat..•ful as
pusillanimous. I can still pardon him the injury
which he has clone me."

The second letter is addressed by the Emperor to
the King of Najiles. No date is given to it ; but to
supply this omission, Lord Castlereagh supposes that
this letter treats of the successes obtaiue.l by the Em-
peror on the 10th and 11 th, which relates to the actions
fought in Champagne on the 10th and 11th March,
1814. The letter, such as quoted by Lord Castle-
reagh, begins with these words-4, Ido not speak to
you of my dissatisfaction with your conduct,"
We have before us the minute of a letter from the.
Emperor to the King of Naples, dated Fontainbleau,
January 26, 1813, beginning thus..." I do not speak
of my dissatisfaction at your conduct since l left the
army." The latter half of the phrase has been sup-
pressed, which would have indicated the true date,
and the remainder of the letter substituted, relates to
circumstances which occurred when the Emperor left
the army after the campaign in Russia. The follow-
ing are the passages which answer the purposes of the
falsifiers ;

44 Profit by an act of treason which I attribute
only to fear, in order to serve me by good informa-
tion. I depend on you, on your contrition, on your
principles ; if it were otherwise, remember that you
shall repent it.—l defeated the Austrians yesterday,
I am in pursuit of the remainder of their columns.—
Another such victory, and you will see my prospects
are not so desperate as you have been taught to be-
lieve them.—Keep your promise."
Lord Castlereagh did not quote in his speech, hut
he distributed copies of another letter of the Empe•
ror to the King of Naples. To this printed copy the
date 7th March is affixed, and as it contains details
which relate only to the year 1814, it is, therefore,
the 7th March, 1814, that it purports to be dated.—
We read in this letter the following words :

44 You are surrounded with men who hate France,
and who wish to ruin you. I have often told you of
it. All that you write to me is too strongly contrast-
ed by that which you do, Sm." We have also before
us a minute of another letter from the Emperor to the
King of Naples ; bin this letter is dated from Com-
piegn, the 30th August, 1811, and we find in it lire-
rally.the passage' which we have just quoted. Hence
it is that letter which is falsified. They have retained
only the expressions which enable us to discover the
real letter, otherwise, how could one speak in 1811,
as suprosed in the printed letter : shall see by
your manner of acting at Ancona, if your heart is
French. Continue to correspond with the Vice-Roy..,
and take care that your letters be not intercepted."
The original minutes of these letters are in our
hands—the autographs are not, and cannot' be but
at Naples, and they will confirm oar assertions, for
it is not doubtful that they will be published. What
then sue the pieces from which Lord Castlereagh has
printed the doc'iments.which he has published t It
is for him to prove that they are true, and not for us
to prove that they are false. Nevertheltss we shall
furnish the proof.

Wt• are authoeised to declare, that we shall %hew
to every EngiishmAn of distinction who may be at
.Paris and require s it.-
Ist. 'Ma or'ginal minutes of the Emperor's letters ;

2d. The minutes of the same letters, falsified and
written by the hand of the Abbe Tleuriel, who during
nineteen years has fulfilled the office of SeCretary,in
fhe cabinet of Count de L lle, and in that of Count
de Blacas. We shall moreover communicate the
minute of a letter written by Count Blacas to Lord
Castlereagh, the 4th March,lBls, if his Lordship has
not preserved the original. It contains these words :,
1, I !rave since also found, in another drawer, three.
minutes of letters written by Napoleon, one of which,
bas no date. I hat 4 the honour of *addressing copies
of them to you, and these are not the least interesting
pieces which have been discovered among the im.
mense quantity of papers which it was necessary to
send."

These copies are evidently those of the three letters,
of which we have been speaking, two of them bear
dates demonstrated to be falsey and the other is re:illy
•
without date. We therefore know perfectly that it
Was the 4th of March, 1815. that the pretended copies
of these three letters were sent to Lord Castlereagh.
We shall also communicate an of iginal letter from
a personage whose testimony Lord Castlereagh will
no: reject. This letter w.O written the 4th of Janu-
ary, 1815; to Counatlacas, by Lord Wel!ington.—
It is inserted at the 'end of this note. We have hence
the right to deduce the following facts, which no one
can dispute:

The Government of Count de Lille communica-
ted 'to the English Ambassadsile flie papers which
concerned The King of Naples. At that time it was
sot-determined to falsify dual, ;id 'Lord
