Enclosed was likewise a copy of the well-known letter addressed by Buonaparte to His Royal Highness the Prince Regent.

"Altesse Royale,

"En b.u.t.te aux factions qui divisent mon pays et a l'inimitie des plus grandes puissances de l'Europe, j'ai termine ma carriere politique, et je viens comme Themistocle m'a.s.seoir sur le foyer du peuple Britannique. Je me mets sous la protection de ses loix, que je reclame de votre Altesse Royale, comme au plus puissant, au plus constant, et au plus genereux de mes Ennemis."

"Rochefort, 13 Juillet, 1815, "Signe, NAPOLeON."

TRANSLATION.

"Rochefort, July 13th, 1815.

"Your Royal Highness,

"A victim to the factions which distract my country, and to the enmity of the greatest powers of Europe, I have terminated my political career, and I come, like Themistocles, to throw myself upon the hospitality of the British people. I put myself under the protection of their laws; which I claim from your Royal Highness, as the most powerful, the most constant, and the most generous of my enemies.

NAPOLEON."
