nate"
Considering the situation of Moreau, Just
shot down from his horse, and with the expec-
tation of dying, this expression indicates more
of sentiment ofregret at the success OF ri
val, more OF a sentiment of chagrino that DO
naparte has; been more fortunate in schemes of
ambition than he had been, than any feeling for
the liberties of Europe. This ole expression,
uttered il the bitterness of despair, in conf
donce to his lady, and which his friends have
been so sill, as to publish, betrays more Of the
real character of Moreau than any thing we have
recently seen. His regards, we are persuaded,
were always more inclined to his own particu
