'73' M。 de Metternich; I。; 284。  〃One of those to whom he seemed the

most attached was Duroc。  'He loves me the same as a dog loves his

master;' is the phrase he made use of in speaking of him to me。  He

compared Berthier's sentiment for his person to that of a child's

nurse。  Far from being opposed to his theory of the motives

influencing men these sentiments were its natural consequence whenever

he came across sentiments to which he could not apply the theory of

calculation based on cold interest; he sought the cause of it in a

kind of instinct。〃



'74' Beugnot; 〃Mémoires;〃 II。; 59。



'75' 〃Mémorial。〃 〃If I had returned victorious from Moscow; I would

have brought the Pope not to regret temporal power: I would have

'80' Words of Napoleon to Marmont; who; after three months in the

black sling: 〃You hold on to that rag then?〃 Sainte…Beuve; who loves

the truth as it really is; quotes the words as they came; which

Marmont dared not reproduce。  (Causeries du Lundi; VI。; 16。) …

〃Souvenirs〃; by Pasquier; Librarie Plon;  Paris 1893: 〃M。 de Champagny

'86'  〃The Ancient Regime;〃 p。 125。 … 〃?uvres de Louis XIV。;〃 191:

〃If there is any peculiar characteristic of this monarchy; it is the

free and easy access of the subjects to the king; it an egalité de

justice between both; and which; so to say; maintains both in a genial

and honest companionship; in spite of the almost infinite distance in

birth; rank; and power。  This agreeable society; which enables persons

of the Court to associate familiarly with us; impresses them and

charms them more than one can tell。〃

'91' M。 de Metternich; I。; 286。 … 〃It would be difficult to imagine

any greater awkwardness than that of Napoleon in a drawing…room。 …

Varnhagen von Ense; 〃Ausgew?hlte Schriften;〃 III。; 177。 (Audience of

July 10; 1810): 〃I never heard a harsher voice; one so inflexible。

When he smiled; it was only with the mouth and a portion of the

cheeks; the brow and eyes remained immovably sombre; 。 。 。 This

compound of a smile with seriousness had in it something terrible and

frightful。〃 …  On one occasion; at St。 Cloud; Varnhagen heard him

exclaim over and over again; twenty times; before a group of ladies;

〃How hot!〃

the H?tel de Ville; he exclaimed to Madame ; who had just given

her name to him: 'Good God; they told me you were pretty!' To some old

persons: 'You haven't long to live! To another lady: 'It is a fine

time for you; now your husband is on his campaigns!' In general; the

tone of Bonaparte was that of an ill…bred lieutenant。  He often

invited a dozen or fifteen persons to dinner and rose from the table

before the soup was finished。。。 The court was a regular galley where

each rowed according to command。〃

Whitworth's dispatch to Lord Hawkesbury; March 14; 1803; and account

of the scene with Napoleon。  〃All this took place loud enough for the

two hundred persons present to hear it。〃… Lord Whitworth (dispatch of

March 17) complains of this to Talleyrand and informs him that he

shall discontinue his visits to the Tuileries unless he is assured

that similar scenes shall not occur again。 … Lord Hawkesbury approves

of this (dispatch of March 27); and declares that the proceeding is

improper and offensive to the King of England。 … Similar scenes; the

same conceit and intemperate language; with M。 de Metternich; at

'96' Before the rupture of the peace of Amiens (〃Moniteur;〃 Aug。 8;

1802): The French government is now more firmly established than the

now contend against France。〃 … Campaign of 1805; 9th bulletin; words

of Napoleon in the presence of Mack's staff: 〃I recommend my brother

the Emperor of Germany to make peace as quick as he can! Now is the

time to remember that all empires come to an end; the idea that an end

might come to the house of Lorraine ought to alarm him。〃 … Letter to

the Queen of Naples; January 2; 1805: 〃Let your Majesty listen to what

I predict。  On the first war breaking out; of which she might be the

cause; she and her children will have ceased to reign; her children

would go wandering about among the different countries of Europe

begging help from their relations。〃



'97' 37th bulletin; announcing the march of an army on Naples 〃to

punish the Queen's treachery and cast from the throne that criminal

woman; who; with such shamelessness; has violated all that men hold

sacred。〃 … Proclamation of May 13; 1809: 〃Vienna; which the princes of

the house of Lorraine have abandoned; not as honorable soldiers

yielding to circumstances and the chances of war; but as perjurers

pursued by remorse。 。 。 。 In flying from Vienna their adieus to its

inhabitants consisted of murder and fire。  Like Medea; they have

sacrificed their children with their own hands。〃 … 13th bulletin: 〃The

rage of the house of Lorraine against the city of Vienna;〃



'98' Letter to the King of Spain; Sept。 18; 1803; and a note to the

Spanish minister of foreign affairs; on the Prince de la Paix: 〃This

favorite; who has succeeded by the most criminal ways to a degree

unheard of in the annals of history。 。 。 。 Let Your Majesty put away a

man who; maintaining in his rank the low passions of his character;

has lived wholly on his vices。〃 … After the battle of Jéna; 9th; 17th;

18th; and 19th bulletins; comparison of the Queen of Prussia with Lady

Hamilton; open and repeated insinuations; imputing to her an intrigue

with the Emperor Alexander。  〃Everybody admits that the Queen of

Prussia is the author of the evils the Prussian nation suffers。  This

is heard everywhere。  How changed she is since that fatal interview

with the Emperor Alexander! 。 。 。 The portrait of the Emperor

Alexander; presented to her by the Prince; was found in the apartment

of the Queen at Potsdam。〃
