S. Napoleon drew eontribut loos from Austria, from
Prussia, and from Plyria. lie had the revenue of
Al Italy, from the Confederacy of Germany, from
.• Poland, and that of the French Empire, which
antountA to nearly 6ne thousand millions. Notwith-
standing those resources, the deficiency for the year
1812 was doubled.
U. Notwithstanding the battles of Aspen, and Ey-
lau, Napoleon had preserved the reputation of being
tovincible • he enjoyed an opinion that nothing
could rests\ him : it was sufficient for him to orders
and every thing gAve way to his Will—to order and.
it *es done—to direct, and every thing bended to

,Tho..e 500,000 veterans of Napoleon have ilia-
iwured ; he has lost all his cavalry—several Mar-
. shals-80 Generals ;of this army only somelhou-
sands of officers remain to him. The cannon, arms,
effects, the OM millions are lost, together with Pros-
.loa and Polish contingents. He has only of the
latter 15,000 men

lions bsve teased. Illyria is, exhanited. The war
and army expences have doubled. What, then, will,
IP•th.2 deficit for the year 1813 There no longer
rusts a Continental System against England : it is,
i t fact, destroyed.
9.The battles of Smolensk and Borodino, of Krasnoi,
of Lunen, and all the last campaign, prove, that with
ilferior forces he can be resisted and beaten ; and
that, consequently, he must he beaten with equal
forces, and (Intro) ed with superior ones.

•
From this comparative statement) it results, that
prapotoon's power and glory have sensibly declined
since the year 1811. ins• army had then besides
110,000 ausiliarios,—vii. 50,003 Poles, 30,0b0
Prussians, and 30,000 Austrians; his enemy nOw•`
. lane in auxiliary force of 330,000,—viz. 200,0 ft,
Austrians, 100,600 Prussians, and SO,OOO Swedes:.'
Nis revenues have decreased one hundred millions;.
• and the diminution will be still much greater, if we
take into consideration what he drew by requisitions
• ' from Prussia, and the countries of the Confedera-
'4:Sion of the Rhine, and the war contributions of
' Prussia, Poland, and Austria.
There was no -alliance against him, except that of

England and Spain; no other Power that could
:11liti war against him, mine other than Russia which
Irwin able to resist him. A now alliance now subsists
4etwera. four Powers, which are in a condition to
Oppose him with 500,000 combatants,—whole na-
elope will; should it be necessary, be under arms.—
• 'Napoleon so fully feels the slifliculty of resisting
them, that he almost abandons the Peninsula, which
• espies the southern provinces of France to invasion.
-sibs army is no, longer composed of veterans; his
• cedar,' is ne longer formidable, nor the 'most war-
like in Europe. Four-fifths .of his army are com-
• posed •of young 'men,-imperfectiy dibciplined, and
• torn from the•arts and' agriCulture, which produces'
, • an enormoui deficiency in the .total revenues of his
States. • '

The allieS, or rather the Slaves of Napoleon/ P - i
pecially Saxony and Bavaril, are np longer able to
furnish the contingents he had imposed on them.
Deprival of the greater part of his former resources,l
he no longer'possesses either the, means or the right
of dktatingliteeostlitittns or peace. Ile will not be ,
able to:procure new States; he :ean only Obtain it by
sacrificing a part of those he pOs;esses, which will
augment tin} relajive power of 61s oppo)tents.
If b. continues the—war, the.chences are against-
him ; the loss of several States' Which he has already
sustained, has not been counterbalanced by any new
cooquest. In losing 600,000 of his troops, he ac-
quired new enemies, who will combat him with the
same forces which have before supported his cause
and his interests. Sic millions of Yressiatis,, 19
millions of Austrians, and four millions of the
Duchy of Warsaw in all 29 millions of men,
ielto were Under his controul, or his Allies, are
how united against him. The deficit in his finances
will augment without measure, and force him to ag-
vacate the state Of constraint and the sufferings of
his subjects, which he can no longer relieve by his
foreign receipts. All those considerations should
have induced him to make peace; but it now remains
for the Allies to conclude it on such a basis as will
render it solid and honourable. They will augment
their physical and moral force ; draw closer their re.
ciprocel ties ; whilst he, directed by the same ambi-
tion, the same deitructive objects, will be obliged
to pay, with his own finances, those who serve him,
and maintain at home au army which will increase
the malady which is undermining his gigantic empire,
and which will crush him wider its ruins.
