Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Consulate and the Empire of France Under Napoleon, Vol. 3 But the people, and especially the monks, that cloistered portion of the people, were ex asperated. Among these last nothing could mitigate the feeling of wounded pride - neither the hope of a regeneration which they were incapable of appreciating, nor tolerance in re gard to foreigners whom they detested, neither the love of repose nor the fear of disorder. The Spanish people, the people of the streets and the fields, like those of the cloister, ardent, ia dolent, weary of quiet, so far from being fond of it, caring little about the burning of towns or country houses, in which there was nothing belonging to them, were ready to gratify that propensity to agitation, which the French peo ple had gratified in 1789, by efi'ecting a great democratic revolution. They were ready to exert, in support of the old system all the dem agogue passions which the French people had exerted for the foundation of the new one. They were about to be as violent, as tumul tuous, as sanguinary, for the throne and the altar, as their neighbours had been against both. They were about to be so in proportion to the warmth of their blood and the ferocity of their disposition. In the Spanish people, nevertheless, a noble sentiment blended with the feelings that we have just mentioned - the love of their country, of their kings, of their religion, which they amalgamated into one af fection, and under the inspiration of which they were destined to furnish splendid examples of fortitude and frequently of heroism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Consulate and the Empire of France Under Napoleon, Vol. 4 On pronouncing these words, Napoleon as sumed the most threatening air, and a new war was evinced in his gestures, his accent, and his look. He resumed and said, This war against England is long and painful, I well know. But what would you have me do? What method should I adopt? Apparently, since you complain so much of the sea being closed, you demand that it should be open, that a single power should not rule them at the ex pense of all others, nor take possession of the colonies of all other nations, nor arrogate to itself despotic power over every ﬂag. For my part, I am irrevocably fixed in this matter: I will never abandon the rights of neutrals; I will never allow the principle to prevail that the lag does not protect merchandise; that the neutral is obliged to repair to England and there to pay tribute. If I had the baseness to mintain such theories you would shortly be unable to leave Bouen or Havre without a pass port from the English. My decrees of Berlin and Milan shall be the laws of the Empire until England shall have renounced her foolish pre tmsions. The Americans ask leave to reappear in our ports, to bring you cotton and to take your silk, which would afford you great relief.

This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Consulate and the Empire of France Under Napoleon, Vol. 11: Forming a Sequel Napoleon calculated that these 300 thousand men, whom he did not suppose so much diminished as they really were by fatigue, sickness, and dispersions, would be more than sufficient to subjugate Spain, even though reduced to 200 thousand, since the English would naturally have lost all relish for aiding the Spaniards since the campaign of Corui'ia. Under vigorous com mand, these 200 thousand would certainly have been sufficient, although the passion of a whole people in arms against the foreigner is capable of working many miracles; but the authority left by Napoleon at Madrid to interpret his instructions, and cause them to be executed, could not supply the place of his genius, or of his will, or of his ascendancy over men; and the most powerful means were destined to be wrecked, not by the resistance of the Spaniards, but by the military anarchy resulting from his absence. King Joseph, in fact, though good tempered, rational, and of tolerably well-regulated habits, possessed, as we have said, none of the qualities of a commander, though he had a strong ambition for military glory as a family patrimony. But he had neither activity nor vigour, nor any experience in war, nor, in lieu of experience, any of those superior qualities of mind which make up for the want of it. He had, as we have also said, taken for his Mentor the worthy and discreet marshal Jourdan, to whose judgment he submitted his military plans, but most frequently without hearkening to his advice; and after long oscillating between the marshal and his familiar councillors, he would make up his mind as he could according to the impressions of the moment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Consulate and the Empire of France Under Napoleon, Vol. 17: Forming a Sequel to "the History of the French Revolution" M. Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte, French citizen, residing in the United States at Baltimore, required the editors on the 7 th May, 1859, to insert in the present volume, the following note, which they believe they ought to insert, not being judges of a question of state policy, which the legal authorities can alone decide. On the 24th December, 1803, M. Jerome Bonaparte, at that time an officer in the navy of the French republic, married Miss Elizabeth Pater son, daughter of a respectable citizen of the United States: this marriage was celebrated at Baltimore by the Bishop of Baltimore, according to the rites of the holy Catholic Church, and the act of celebration was inserted the same day in the register of marriages at the cathedral of the city of Baltimore.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Consulate and the Empire of France Under Napoleon Massena was sent to the army of Italy, to the places and among the soldiers that were perfectly well known to him. It was also honourable to himself that he should be chosen to repair the faults committed in 1799, and be the continuator of the exploits of Bonaparte in 1796. Separated from the army in the midst of which he had conquered and obtained supporters, he was now transported to the midst of a new army, to which the Directory was odious, and Where none were found who did not approve of the 18th Brumaire. This selection, like the preceding, was perfectly wise in a military point of view. The Apennines were to be disputed with the Austrians, and for a war of such a nature on this theatre of operations Massena had no where his equal. After having agreed upon these indispensable appointments, the consuls continued to apply them selves to a business not less urgent, that of the finances. Before obtaining money from capitalists, it was necessary to afford them satisfaction, by sup pressing the forced progressive loan, which, like the hostage law, had incurred universal reprobation. The forced loan, as well as the hostage law, was far from having produced all the evil attributed to it. But these two measures, scanty in utility, bore the mischief, under a moral sense, that they re called the most odious recollections of the rei of terror. Every body agreed in condemning tilem The revolutionists themselves, who in their pa triotic ardour had demanded them of the Directory.
