NAPOLEON'S GREAT WORK.

This day was published, in Two Volumes, Bvo. illustrated with
two Fac-Similes and four Maps, in French, glis. and in Eng-

lish, 28s.
THE SECOND LIVRAISON of NAPOLEON'S
MEMOIRS of the HISTORY of FRANCE, during his
REIGN, DICTATED at SAINT HELENA, to Counts
Mowrifoxon, B D, GOUIQAUO, &c. and published from the
Original hlanusclipts Corrected by HIMSELF.
Extract from the Preface.

During the last seven years, much has been written relative
to Napoleon; all have wished to say what they knew of him;
many have said what they did not know. Statesmen, soldiers%
and authors, of all nations, have been desirous of passing judg.
.went upon him ; everybody has spoken, except himself! At
length be also breaks silents-, and in the most solemn manner
appeals to the judgment of posterity.
At the time of his abdication at Fontainebleau, lie said to the
remains of his old legions, " I will record the deeds we have
performed together." But the rapid occurrence of events which
led en the revolution of the 20th of March, did not permit bhp
to write his Memoirs at the Isle of Elba ; nor was he able to
fulfil the promise given at Fontainebleau, until he arrived at St.
Helena. No sooner was his political career terminated, than
his restless mind eagerly reverted to this project. He did not
even wait until he arrived at the rock of exile; on board the
vessel which carried him thither, he commenced his Memoirs.
He employed the six years of his captivity in writing the ac-
count of the twenty years of his political life. So constantly
was he occupied in this undertaking, that to describe the labour
lesbestoviod upon it, would be almost to write the.history of his
Site at St. Helena. Like Casar and Frederic, he wished to leave
behind him a monument which might endure for ages.
• 'He seldom wrote with his own hand; lit wes impetient at the
tedious pen, which refused to fellow the rapidity of his thoughts.
Elie dictated to those who were about him,. apd they were
obliged to accustom themselves to-write pith the celerity of
speech. They often found It difficult to transonic during the
,eight, what he had dictated to them in tbirday. The eopies
gas made, Napoleon revised in his closet, correcting them with
his own hand. These mantistripta, entirely covered with his'
writing, (a specimen of which may be seen at the Publishers)
have been carefully preserved, because nothing which' • comet •
from so celebrated* atanamill be indifferent in the eyes of for.
terity ; and they constitute such a proof of authenticity. as eat-
-not he called initiestion.

SFORTIAG lATELLIGENCE.

BETTING AT TATTERSALL S, JULY 2A.
Tatterssll's to-day was very thinly attended, which, of course'
must he attributed to the absence of numerous sporting charac-
ters at Brighton, Winchester, Knursford, and other races now
at issue. The different speculations were on the Doncaster St.
Leger, and those but of a trivial nature. Sherwood for this
Stake has got up as we have anticipated, and close at being again
first favourite. Chttet Lorraine and Palais loyal have got a
point upwards each. The other Leger horses stand as before.

TROTTING MATCH.
Mr. Malcolm, a horse-dealer, fur a bet of 20 sovereigns, un-
dertook to trot a horse upon which he was then mounted fifteen
miles in an hour. Mr. Al. rode about lOst. Bibs. and he per-
formed 34 follows, over a three-mile piece of ground :—First
three, 11 min. 40 sec. ; second, 11 min. 12 sec.; third, 11 mill.
40 SEC.; fourth, 11 min. 56 sec. ; fifth, 12 min. 40 sec. ; winning
the match by a nii.rate and two seconds.

NINE MILES WITHIN AN HOUR.
A match to walk a horse three miles, trot in harness three,
and gallop three, within the above time, swat made on the last
day of Chelmsford Races, to be done instanter; but a forfeit
baying been paid, Mr. linlmsburt, of Epping, undertook to
perform the task, with three clear days to get in order. Mr. H.
weighs 12st. and the match took place yesterday at Harrington
End, Epping Forest. Betting 6to 4 agst the horse winning.
The horse broke from the walk six times in the first mile, four
in the second, and three in the third, and was turned round each
time. The time occupied in walking was 39 minutes and 16 se-
conds. The horse was in harness in less than a minute, and per-
formed the three miles at the trot in a few seconds. Eight mi-
nutes were left fur the gallop, and the time had espired when
the horse was 50 yards from home, and the match was lost • in
consequence of the breaks in the walk.

AFFAIR Al' CORUNNA:

An Express arrived yesterday at the Admiralty
from Falmouth, stating that intelligence had reached
that port from Corunna so late as the 20th, at which
time the firing was still heard.
By the way of Liverpool, accounts have arrived
from Ccirunna of the 18th, hrought by the Minerva,
Captain Libans (said to be a French )last Indiaman,
which had been captured, and taken into Corunna),
which arrived at Liverpool on Saturday. She brought
several passengers, and among' them the wife of
General Mina.

The French had not succeeded in their attack upon
the town, and are stated to have retreated four or
five leagues. When the Minerva sailed, they were
filing upon the shipping in the Bay, in consequence
of which the vessels were getting under weigh.
The actions of the 15th and 16th were very seve,e,
and the French are represented' to have lost a great
number of men on the latter day, as 'they were at
one time in possession of part of the town, from
which they were repulsed with great loss. Two Spa-
nish gun-boats had outflanked the besiegers, and caused
considerable loss to them in killed and wounded.

It is represented that two hundred carts with
wounded French, had arrived at a small village in
the neighbourhood of Corunna.
Sir Robert Wilson's wound is a little above the
knee, and it is supposed he will lose his leg. General
Quiroga was at Corunna, and the Spaniards who
came passengers in the Minerva, represent the troops
and volunteers as being determined to defend the
town.—Mousing Paper.

PERCUSSION GUNS.

WA. BECKWITH has the honour to inform
• Noblemen and Gentlemen Sportsmen, that his late
IMPROVEMENTS in PERCUSSION GUNS have given
satisfaction to every Gentlemen that has used them, they baying
shot more game than they had ever done with any other gun ;
which they attribute to the contracted line of direction, as well
as to the astonishing quickness of comMunicatlon to the chlrge
of powder, and to the increased velocity of the shot. Beckwith's
Guns may be expeditiously primed three different ways, which
prevent the possibility of accident : the barrels are all proved by
percussion, warranted safe, and to shoot equal to the best that
can be produced; the locks are completely water proof, and
much easier cleaned than any others, as it is not necessary to take
them off the stock.—Old guris altered to fire by percussion at a
moderate expense ; great variety of second-band guns; remark-
ably strop.- and quick firing cylinder gunpowder; percussion
powuer of very superior quality; copper caps and primers of
every description ; with every article in the gun trade, retail and
for exportation.—Gunmaker to the lion. East IndliCompany,

FROM THE MONITEUR.
PARIS, MAY 9.

Every device has been practised to-day to spread,
alarms where they are most likely to take effect—the
Erchange. Marshal Moncey has been beaten by
Mina; the Duke of Angouleme demands an aid of
50,000 men ; the Russians and Austrians are in full
march, and England is going to declare against us.
—These, and other similar rumours, however, have

had no effect ; the funds maintain the same price
which they have done for several days past.—Articles
• in the journals have now adays little influence on opi-
nion.—What is clear to all persons of candour is, that

the great majority of Spaniards are against the Revo-

lution. This fact ought to ensure confidence corn-
- pletely ; for it is then of necessity that the Revolution
should be finished.

EXTRACT OF A PRIVATE LETTER.

48 I hasten to announce to you that orders hate
been transmitted to our ports of Fiume, Trieste, Ve.
sire, &c. to refuse harbour to all Corsairs under the
Spanish flag, who may present themselves, whether
µ•ith or without prizes.
" If they bring prizes and that they can be seized,
they are to be put under sequestration, to be restored
to their owners, who may reclaim their propetty.

It is alsl known that instructions have been dis-
patched by our Go►ernment to the Naval Command-
ants of our naval forces in the Adriatic, the Mediter-
ranean, and the Levant.

4, As yet no order against the entry of Spanish
merchant ships has been issued, and it is possible that
the commerce of Spain will not be entirely inter-
rupted. We believe, however, that our Government
IA ill rather follow the example of that of Russia,
where the merchants have been warned to abstain
froth all sort of commerce with the parts of Spain
and Portugal.
The liveliest interest is felt bete respecting the
military operations of Count Atnarante; our Court
was the first to disapprove formally•the Revolution
of Portugal."

SIR HENRY RAEBtlia•

•
In our Paper of Monday last, we had the painful
duty of announcing the death of this eminent and
excellent person, whose talents have done so much
honour to Scotland, and entitle him to be ranked as
a portrait painter in the same class with -REYNOLDS
and LAWRENCE. His full length pictures of the
Earl of HOPETOLTN, Lord FREDERICK CAMPBELL,
Sir DAVID BAIRD, ADAM ROLLAND, Esq. GLEN-
GARRY, and many more, might be mentioned- as
proofs that he was equally remarkable for correct-
ness of drawing, freedom of penciling, brilliancy of
colouring, and a personification of character not less
vigorous than
.graceful. He possessed the rare faculty
of producing in every instance the most striking and
agreeable likeness, and of indicating intellectual ex,
pression and dignity of demeanour, wherever they ap-
peared in the original; often approaching in his por-
traits to the elevation .of historical painting. His
modesty was equal to his merit; and in his inter-
course with the young candidates for public favour,
be was uniformly kind, communicative, and liberal;
and on all occasions had the candour to bestow just
praise on rival excellence.—The Royal Academy in
London, in testimony of their high estimation of his
talents, elected him first an Associate, and afterwards
an Academician, without solicitation. And when his
MAJESTY, on his visit'to Edinburgh, conferred the
honour of Knighthood upon the distinguished Artist,
we do not recollect any occasion on which a more
universal feeling of satisfaction was expressed. In
society, few men were more acceptable than Sir
HENRI* ; for he possessed a cheerful disposition, much
good sense, and an inexhaustible store of anecdote.
In his domestic relations, no man could dispense or
receive a greater degree of happiness ; and those who
had apportunitiei of seeing him in the midst of his
family, will ever cherish the recollection of his amiable
and endearing qualities. Sir I Igvny was a Member
of the Royal Society of Edinburgh, a Member of the
late Imperial Academy of Florence, a Member of
the Academy of New York, and a few days before
his death received a commission appointing him por-
trait painter in Scotland to the KING.

COURT OF CHANCERY-THIS DAY.
London, England, 1823-07-18

ASSIZES.

CIIELMBF9RD, JULY 11. •
James Coote and Wra. Lamplough went; in.itated
for assaulting Catherine Dallaway, on the King's
highway at Stratford, on the 29th of May, putting
her in fear, and stealing from her person a silk scarf;
her property.
It appeared that Miss Dallaway and her sister,
young ladies of respectable appearance, were return-
ing across the fields from Temple Mills to Stratford,
on the day in question, and when near the style passed
two men lying under the hedge. The men immedi-
ately rose and followed them, and whilst the ladies
were in the act of passing the style, one of the men
seized hold of the prosecutrix's scarf, and attempted
to pull it from her shoulders. She resisted in great
alarm, but, after a short struggle, the ruffian sue--
ceeded in possessing himself of the scarf, and ran
away towards Temple Mills Bridge, followed by his
companion, who stood by and witnessed the struggle.
The ladies, however, pursued them, and, having ob-
tained assistance, they were taken into custody. Nei-
ther of the ladies could identify the prisoners as
being the offenders, but a little boy, who was on the
bridge at the time, and to whom both the prisoners
were well known, proved that they passed the bridge
precisely at the time stated, pursued by the ladies.
The scarf was not found upon either of the prisoners.
The prisoners solemnly declared their innocence.
Mr. Baron GRAHAM charged the Jury, and said,
that if they were satisfied of the identity of the pri-
soners, the charge was fully established; for the strug-
gle between one of them .and the prosecbtrix, and the
alarm which she declared she felt, fully Supported the
legal definition of a highway robbery ; and as both
the prisoners were evidently concerned in the same
design, both were equally amenable to the law,
though one only committed the actual violence.
The Jury deliberated a few minutes, and found
both prisoners Guilty—Death.
