IMPERIAL Coatostyr.—The following little scene,
says a Canada Paper, may be amusing to our readers:
it reminds us somewhat of the ordeal through which
Gulliver is described as having passed in the presence
of their Majesties of Brobdignag or Lillipur; There
can be no doubt as to the authenticity of the nor*
tive, which was drawn up by Serjeant CAMPBELL,
at the request of an Officer of his Regiment :
" In the month of August, 1815, 1- was ordered to
proceed with private JOHN FRASER, and piper Kew-
NETH MACQUAY, to the Palais d'Elisee, in Paris, thee
the residence of the Emperor of Russia, when we
were joined by serjeant Maconsooft, private Mune,
and piper MACKENZIE, of the 4'2d Regiment; ser-
jeant GRANT, piper Looau, and piper CAMERON, of
the 92d Regiment. Abput half an hour after our ar•
rival at the Palace, Lord CATHCART sent a valet to
conduct us to the grand hall, where we met his
Lordship, whom I immediately recognized. He was
pleased to order me to take charge of the partri
while he went to the EMPEROR to acquaint him of
our arrival, and in about ten minutes after the Ev•
PEROR entered the hall, accompanied by his two
brothers, Prince BLUCHER, Count PLAzoFr, and se-
veral other distinguished personages. The EMPEROE
had a very minute inspection of us, and his curiosar
led him to point upon me (as being the most robug
of those who accompanied me) to step to the front.
was surrounded by the astonished Nobility, and the
EMPEROR commenced his inspection and questions,w-
-" 1. E.xamined my appointments, drew my sword,
if I could perform any exercise of that weapon, which' Iffl
him I could not ; and, at the same time, Lord Cathcart radi
remark, that it was a deficiency in the British Army OW' m
never took into consideration before.
" 2. ExaMined my hose, garters, legs, and pinched lef4t
thinking I wore something under my kilt, and bad the dew"
of lifting my kilt up, so that be might not be deceived: De 411
dons were—How long I was in the Army I—How tray K'
dons I was in 7—lf I was present at the actions of the 16thl
and 18th ?—How many Officers and men the Regiment 10,1
„re
the 16th, 17th, and 18th of June?—Whether I was in Ealle •
If we wore the kilt in winter, or if I did not feel cold in a°
season -If .I eiiis married?— If my parents were alive? itc-
" The Emperor then ordered Lord Cathcart to make aw
John Praser through the manual and platoon exercise, at egh"
performance he was highly pleased. He then ordered the
to play up,'and Lord Cathcart desired them to play the !IA
land tune called Cogno-sta4hi, War or Peace, which he aTI
to the Emperor, who seemed highly delighted with the or!'
After the Emperor had done with me, the veteran, Count rw
toff, came up to me, took me by the band, sad told me, io broke
English, that I was a goodand brave soldier, as all my cower('
men were. He then pressed my hand to his breast, and P"
me his to press to mine. After all was over. I was ordered
w;
take the party to Lord Cathcart's quarters, wbere we had a
freshment, and received a piece of money each from his Lem
ship, and Also his approbation for our appearance, Ice.
