MORE ANECDOTES OF BONAPARTE.
A private letter from Avignon, dated on the 30th
ult., contains a fact which ought to be added to the
details which we Gave already published respecting
Bonaparte's journeV. As he was very much agitated
and terriiiefi at the dangers which beset him, he dis-
guised bialwlf in the manner which we have already
described; hot he carried his precaution farther.—
Ile did not wish to remain in the carriage, and yet •
lie was aware that he must necessaiily form part of
the cavalcade.. To reconcile every thing, he sug-
gested the hie), of his own accord, of disguising a
courier, named Vernet, as the great Bonaparte, and
this man took his place in the carriage. This person
quietly heard the most shocking imprecations uttered
a#;ainst bisii:aster ; tout very luckily escaped with no
vlbfq• (Win:At. ihrlit losUitS clod f' Irses.
A Gewicmmo %vita has arcked frrin the South of
France, an:: vs ho met the r,,,.0rt of Bonaparte, when
changing horses, slates, that it was truly a frightful
spectacle. Th, rrpolace assembled round his car.
TiaV, anJ, ht.teitif,g 014 to the impulses of hatred
and reogea.N*4's addressEd a thousand reproaches to
him, Oil eatet.ing him with death, and attempting to
seize his person. Oa one occasion, the military
force which aceoo,pailleil was overpowered him by the

• him haiaa4u.al the multiinde: he told them, 64 that
it was better to allow the Tyrant to live, hvcause au
instant death would deliver him from all his trou-
bles; whereas he would suffer a thousand deaths iii
the recollection of his crimes," &c. During this
speech the horses wet e changed, and the carriage
was allowed to proceed. Bonaparte, when he found
he was trite safe from this new danger, turned to-
wards his preserver, and said to him, " I thank you,
General ! I heard all you said,—you spoke like an
angel."
When he came to Rapheau, he was offered either a
• French or Isaigiish frigate to convey him to Elba, but
he preferred the latter.
One of the very fer Senators who, under the
• regime of linnapaite, reserved the right of hazard-
ing some usotal truth, said to him, a few days after
his warn loin Mo4cow, when speaking of a most
obnoxious Decrev A filch the Despot wished the Senate
to subscribe, " For God's sake, Sire, propose some-
thing to us which we tiny be permitted to reject—
this Ain loasp op appea ranres."— Bonaparte paid no
ru,ty,ittal to this hint, lest the example should be fol.
lowed on other occasions.
