[Some weeks ago we gave a speech of Bonaparte
to the French merchants ; since which period, other
versions of it have been circulated. The following is
said to.be one of the most accurate reports of it, as.
furnished by a merchant who was present: Our
readers will perceive that it differs A little, but not
essentially, from our former report.]

SPEECH OF THE Emrznoit A 1"i HE MEETING OP A COUNCIL
OF COMMERCE.
" I have deliberately weighed my resources with those of Eng-
land, my situation with her's, and the balance was decidedly in ;
my favour. I have offered her peace upon honourable conditiont,
I have one so far as even to offer to give up Holland. She was
not at all disposed to listen, and I have proved to her that though .;
I menaced her with total ruin, I should advance nothing which I '
ff
could not put in execution. I have the means of equipping many
Seen, and of repairing the losses, checks Rehm/ they might ex-
perience. It was not with ambitious views that I have united all
the coasts of the North with France, I owed it to the system of
blockade which I have established by my Decrees of Berlin, and
which I desire to have observed with the most strict severity. See
me then master of all the coasts of the Baltic (it appeared that
time was a little murmur, which led him to understandtbat diem
was something in Mb phrase to alter ; but he immediately pm-
ceeded.) Yes, Sirs, I am, and always will be master of the Bal.
tic. 'Tbe Emperor of Russia has not indeed as yet caused my De-
' trees to be observed in his potts, bet he will ere six months, or
3 declare war against him. Since Tilsit, what prevented my
march to Petersburgili ? That which I did nut do I can do yet.
The storgele with Eugland is distressing. I know It—but the
Issue canuot be doubtful. My resources are real, they are front
territorial revenues, and those of my enemy rest only on credit,
and ut ell:me as Illusory as the feeble basis of commercial opera-
; tions on which they are founded. I have now In my coffers 400
millions (he repeated, romping with his teen) 200 millions, which
shall be better employed than in purchasing sugar and coffee and
I cocoa—they shall serve to sap the power of those who have these
only for the representatives of power. lam not ignorant that in
pursuing my ss Arm with vigour, wary tortunes will be ruined :
I but they wid be those only who have been so imprudent as to
make speculations beyond their means or have chosen to become
i the Bankers and Agents of England. Sons of Martin, sons of
Andre, here present ! you furnish an example all those who fol-
low the sante course will have the saint lass. If I was King of
Bourdeaux or of Marseilles, or indeed of Holland, I should act
probably as others have done, but I am at the head of a great
Empire, and of a numerous population, and it is not for me to
sacrifice the general good to serve a few towns.
" All Europe has been too long tributary to England—her mo-
nopoly should be destroyed, and it shall be by me. If I was only
I.ouis XIV. she might yet a long time contemn the force of
France ; but I have many more means than the greatest of her
(se:) Kings, and all shall be employed to effect her fall."
