TIE BONAPARTE FAMILY.
NAPOLEON Bonaparte WAS the socond ,

of Charles Marie Bonapartc. He married
first, Josephine, by whom he had no is.
sue-second, Marie Louise of Austria,
whose only child, the Due dc Reicl,sta.lt
died i'll 1882, at Vienna, when the right liuc
OF the impartial family became extinct. Ma
polcon had four brotiers-Joseph (his e.
dcr,) Lucien, Louis, and Jerome and three
sisters--Elza, Pauline, and Caroline.
Joseph, King of Spain, left two ,laugl,-
ters, Zenaidc and Charlotte, but no sons.
Lucien, Prince of Cauino, had no less
than eleven children, five SONS and six
daughtcr) of whom three are still living
Charles Nopo!eon, Prince of Canine (who
married his cousin Zenaidc, daughter and
hcires' of Joseph, by whom he hr, ten
childrcn,) Louis Lucien, Pierre Napoleon,
Antoine, Charlotte (married TO Prince Fab
rlella,) Letitia (married to Mr.. Thomas Wyse)
AleIan'lrine (narried to Count Valeniiu,) J
Constance (now a nun,) and Jean (marriel
to the Marquis Honorati)
Louis, King of Holland, who married
Qucan Hortense, had three sons-Na,,o-
leon, Napoleon Louis, and Louis Napoleon,
(the only survivor, and now President of
the French Republc.)
jerome, King Of Westphalia, had two
sons, jerome Napoleon, and Nepolcon, and
one daughter, Mathilde (now Princess Dem
idoif)
Of the sisters of Napoleon, Eliza mar
rlcd Prince Felix 'acchioclli, and left one
daughter (now married to Count Camera
ta0 Pauline left no children; Caroline
married Murat, King of Naples, and became
iiic mother OF the present Lucicn Charles
Murat, of Letitia, (lparricd to Count Pepo-
h,) and Of Louise (hasrricd to Count Ras-
Poni)
This is the entire Bonsparte family. OF
the brothers and sisters of the Emperor,
only jerome now remains. OF the second
generation-his nephew, and nieccs-there
are fourteen; and Of the third generation
there is still moro considerable number.
AS will be seen from the foregoing pro-
gramme, Louis Napolean is not the head
of his family by order of natisn. BY right
OF prmogeniturc, all the descendants OF
Lucien would take precedence Of the heirs
OF Louis; but, as is well known, Lucien
was i'll disgrace when his impcrious brother
had the ORDER Of succession to the empire
hxed-and he and his descendent were ex-
cluded. How far this law, founded on
whim, is binding in such a. new state of
things as the present, is question which

ground between the hasty, disointed and necessarily

therefore, deem it proper to call renewed attention
these Periodicals, and the very low price at which
they are offered to subscribers. The following is
their list, viz:

In these periodicals are contained he views, mode

three great parties in England--Tory, Wing and RAJ

are Tory the edinburgh Review" Wing; and
the &C Westminster Review +" Liberal. The 6 North
