The Sun. — 1832-09-22 (London, England)

CHARLES X. ? A man who, from the faults of his ancestors, was obliged in his youth to take shelter at Holyrood ; who afterwards returned to his native country, and there, forgetful of the bitter cup of experience, unmindful of the warnings of history, laughing religion and humanity to scorn, violated his oaths, and directed the perpetration of atrocities for which his life was as deservedly forfeited as ever was that of any murderer that swings at the Old Bailey. By a fiction of law, and the contemptuous forbearance of those whom he attempted to rob, he was suffered to come to this country. It was not for us to receive him with insult, but as certainly it was not for us to receive or treat him with honour. Yet here we have men born inßritain, calling themselves free,writing of the ex-tyrant in a manner that would revolt a slave. Nay, the Caledonian Mercury tells us, that a thing was found base enough to cast himself at CHARLES'S feet, and kiss his hand. It seems that an address was got up and signed by the Lord Provost, on the part of the citizens of Edinburgh, which was presented by him to CHARLES, at the head of a deputation of the citizens, as the party who accompanied him are styled. The account states that the address, having been read and graciously answered, CHARLES stated—but we leave the Caledonian Mercury to speak for itself. "He (the exKlNG)added, that he spoke English with difficulty, otherwise he could have wished to say more ; but he assured the gentlemen of the deputation, that he was Men touW, with the mark of respect which had just been paid him ; and the earnestness of his manner showed that the expression flowed from his heart. He then shook hands, in the most cordial manner, with the Lord Provost and the other gentlemen, one of whom, in the irresistible feeling of the moment, dropt upon his knee, and kissed the hand of the good old King; an act of homage which elicited an expression of surprise, accompanied with a melancholy but benignant smile, which seemed to betray a momentary recollection of the past." The slave's name is not given, who could thus disgrace, not simply his birth as a Briton, but his nature as a man. He crouches to CHARLES, who has merely slaughtered his hundreds ; would he lick the shoes of NICHOLAS, who can cumber his thousands ? As a crowning piece of slavish folly the address thus closes :  " We trust that a brighter day will yet dawn on the hopes of that youthful Prince who has already given promise of virtues and accomplishments worthy of a descendant of St. Louis, and of a line of Royal ancestry stretching throughout fourteen centuries. With feelings of sincere regret, we now respectfully bid your Majesty and whole family—Farewell. (Signed, in name of the Inhabitants, by) " JOHN LEARMONTH, Lord Provost." What does the writer mean ? The best thing that could happen to the innocent child would be his taking his station as a private citizen, either in this country or elsewhere, as the members of NAPOLEON'S family have done. That would, indeed, be a bright day for him, but we fear, what the Edinburgh writer seems to hope, that the blind, reckless ambition of his family is chalking out for him a far more thorny course. It would seem too by their present movement from this country, that the time is not very distant when they destine him to enter upon it. CHARLES'S journey curiously coincides, if it have no connection with the military movements of the despotic Powers of the Continent, the continuance of the Duchess de BERRI in la Vendee, and the recent declaration of the King of
