The Suppressed Pamphlet Oiscord In the
Bonaparto Family.
We publish elsewhere summary Of and ex-
tracts from the pamphlet which has just ap-
peared at Brussels on the subject of the Eastern
war. It's authorship has been freely ascribed to
Prince Napoleon Jerome: and though the
Prince denies it, yet still as he admits that
many of the facts may have been derived from
his correspondence and conversation, and as it
is quite clear from the tenor and style Of the
performance that the name inscribed on the
book-a general oficer-is not intended to de-
ceive, we think the Princes denial will 60 for
very little. Very many Of the criticisms he
makes have been already made elsewhere. But
the details respecting the Council of War and
the subsequent opinions Of the Generals will
be new to most readers and certainly shed a
most desirable light on the subject of the war;
The main object Of the pamphlet is to show that
the Crimean expedition was undertaken against
the advice Of the Generals commanding and
by the special orders of the Emperor Napoleon;
and further that il could not be otherwise than
q failure, and has in fact failed most miserably.
How far the author has succeeded in establish
| ing these propositions the readers of the ex-
tracts will be enabled to Judge.
The Emperor it is said displayed more feel
| ing when it reached him than he is in the habit
of showing The fact was it told truths which
the censorship forbids the press uttering
in Paris and it told them in the way
best calculated to injure the Emperor
and exalt another member of his fami-
ly. He wrote to his nephew-at least so
we are told by gossipping correspondent
received an energetic dsavowal of the pam
phlet; sent for him, was rudely denied; sent
again, and finally effected reconciliation by
dint of soothing the wounded pride of the
young Bonapare. Meanwhile, the document
circulates not only throughout France, but
among the army at Cherson and in England;
and unquestionably produces sensible effect.
1t seems to have been the set purpose of this
young Bonaparte to set himself in opposition
to his cousin, and to make the most of what
little ability he has, and especially of his won
deIful resemblance to the Napoleon Both
were members Of the French Assembly of l84S
At Louis Napoleon's election as President, he
showed singular anxiety to get rid of his
cousin whose red republican ideas and affini-
ties were to say the least a material obstacle in
the way of the establishment of peace and
order So, in accordance with courtly usage,
he sent him to Spain on some diplomatic mis-
sion or other. Passing at Marseilles on his
way, young Prince Napoleon could not resist
the temptation of firing off double shotted
out and out red republican speech to the
ronges of that very democratic city; after
which he went on his way rejoicing. Not SO
the President who was much Disguised at the
scandal of such a speech coming from men,
Der Of his own family and ON ambassador to
boot. He said as much in letter to the
Prince. As 1t happened, what that young gen.
tleman lacked in discretion, he made up In
zeal; and in reply to his cousins missive
it is said that the Prince expressed his views
on free speech, the rights of man and the
conduct of the President in strain more
forcible than diplomatic; and Immediately
thowing up his post returned to Paris to re-
sumo his seat in the Assembly. He was one Of
the crack speakers Of the Montague, and
though far inferior in point of ability to many
other, chiefs of that sect, had gained partly
through his oratorical talents but more through
his family connections the rank of leader. His
cousin the President found him most un-
comfortable opponent in the Assembly. He
was at this time living with his father who
had been appointed Director of the Hotel des
Invalides; glad to get a room rent free, and a
seat at government table. The President,
yielding to petty feeling Of dislike, sent
word that the Prince must vacate his apart
ments. He did so, took q four-pair back, and
Numbered more fercely than ever from the
tribune. After a time old .Iernna anccnadad
