defense of the peace treaty by Napoleon
Yesterday evening the Emperor received
the great bodies Of the State, the Presi-
dents of which, NJ. Tropling, Count de
Morney, and NJ. Barracher, addressed con-
gratuIatory speeches to his Majesty. The

found myself in the face Of Europe in arms
ready to despoil our successes or aggravate
our reverses. Nevertheless, the difficulty
Of the enterprise would not have shaken
my resolution, if the means had not been
out of proportion to the results to be ex-
pected. 1t was necessary to crush boldly
the obstacles presented, and then to accept
a conflict on the Rhine as well as on the
Adge. 1t was necessary to fortify our
ocl'co ppoHiy, Will IuS CouCuIl SHCo VI IC'-

my programme the territory from the
Mincio to the Adriatc, and to see vanish
from honest hearts, noble delusions and pat,
rotic hopes. In or er to secure the indie
pendence Of Italy, made war, and as soon
as the destiny of my country might be en-
dangered, | made peace. Our efforts and
our sacriice-have they been merely loss

army, numerous, brave and we'll orgonized.
Piedmont has been delivered from inva-
sion-her frontiers have been extended to
the Mincio-the idea of an Italian nation
atty has been admitted by those who COM
batted it most-all the sovereigrs of the
peninsula comprehend the want Of salutary
reforms. Thus, after having given new
proof Of the military power of France, the
peace concluded will be prolific of happy
results; the future will every day reveal
additional cause for the happiness of Italy,
the influence of France and the tranquil
ty of Europe.
