Extract'of,a Declaration made before M. the Mar-
shal Prince of Essliqg, by a person who has followed
Bonaparte from thejsle of .Elba as far as Digne
" On the 26th of -February, Napoleon .gave orders
to mike preparations for deposten, and every one'
supposed that it was intended to go teiNaples.—At
seven 'o'clock in the etening, 1 received orders to ,
embark, and 1 departed without teeing my family,
Some days previous to this.eveut, .1 had told Napo-
leon that 1 never would heir arms against my native ,
country ,Tbe orders for. this departure weregiven '
thus precipitately, on ecoottet of intelljgacce received
by a Colouel,arrised from therContinent.; bet I did
not see-that tliScer.--11)n the .27th we

poleon informed me, that 'trend Members of the
Senate,. and other.greet personage!, hid raised an ;
insurrection, and created a•Goveroreept, which had!
recalled him to the •Throee.—We landed in the,
Gutph bf Jouan on the_ist of March, at two o'clock,
km the aftereoon,. and encamped-on the shore. We
broke ep from thence on the following night ' • but,
the preparations made, and the.meesures takeu, filled
me wall dread, whichl noticed tO,Na,poieon, but he
issured me we should not come to blows. 1 agaio
repeated, that I would never, light .g;inst my
country. ,In the cetera. •of these •few .days, Na-,
poleon, very 'contrary to his usual manner, said
many haudsome.thiqjs. to rue, and asserted that ,he
would make me •General:lptetodant of his army as:
soon' as it was organized. We made rapid marches,;
a odpu rehmed whatever accoutrements we coeld, bad •
great „precautions were taken
_before hand. In short,'
it appeared to me, ;s If wemere marcbies .qpinst,
the enemy, and not into Ike centre of 'Frauce.-7
From that moment, my resolution was:taken, I sef.
fered.Napoleon to advance, .and determined on

pairing to your Excellency., from whom'l have for so.
many years received suckgreet marks of kindieessc
