And here it is, that his devoted friends
who contribute to fill the luminous pages
of the morning Chronicle, are most Sc
dulous in their efforts to serve him. Bor-
rowing the disguise offiiends offreedom,
they choose the momentof the Rebels adj
vance to the capital, to calumniate and
blacken the character of the King and his
advisers. Is it not monstrous, at such a
time as this, to read the following ex-
pressions attributed to a 6 British noble
man. at Paris ?--ss Napoleon will not be
an unwelcone visitor in this capitalize
spirit Of liberty is streng here. The an
disnation at the King, for the numerous
violations of the charter is great" A
gain, on the very day when the news OF
the Kings departure arrived, we find a
whole column full of such trash as this =
6 The Bourbons had not secured the con-
fdence of the great class of new proprie-
tors, by an uniform respect for the &C
quisitions which had been made" Now
if by this be meant that the King did not
uniformly respect the purchases of ma
tional domains, nothing can be more no
teriouslv or sbamefully false. The libel
Ter. however, is not contented with false
assertions of fact. He writes thus cru
diteIy and ingeniously on his Majesty's
intentions -: Various germs of design
to encroach On the new order of things

being gathered and sown in proper soil
would have sprung up and become visible
in some encroachment or other, on some
part, or other, of the Constitutions

of liberty in France g all the thinking
population all the :. bitterest enemies
of Bonaparte's cause, become, on a sud.
den, ilied with " indignation against
their lawful sovereign, and hail the ap-
preach of an usurper who will not stop at
Germs, or designs, or Entertainments. or
even at particular subversions but will
sweep away the whole constitution, and
frown the pretended +" friends of iberty''
into herd of despicable slaves ! Such
is the folly, such the Inconsistency of the
ready advocates of crime, the ofiicious Ca
lumniators of oppressed virtue.
Europe at large will testifya very dill
ferent sense of the King of Frances con-

nergy against the usurping rebel. MIR.
