Notes.

THE BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR.

but somewhat fanciful, poems in a very friendly spirit. The following passages will serve to show that spirit as well as the other which animated the Spanish lyres :—

"The view which each author has taken of his subject is not less distinct than the style of the different performances. The first, agreeably to its title, begins thus: 'Supuesto que en el diario

nos convidan y' alborotan
á escribir sobre el Combate,
bien sea en verso, ú en prosa;

Yo como Español castizo,
aunque no entiendo una jota,
mojar como convidado

On Thursday next, the 21st of October, seventy years will have elapsed since Nelson, before going into battle at Trafalgar, signalled to the fleet that England expected every man to do his duty; and after the great admiral was shot down at that battle, he expressed the modest hope that England". e. Since the Diario (a newspaper so called) invites would feel that, with regard to duty, he had done his.

quiero en la salsa una sopa ;'

and urges us to write on the subject of the battle, either in verse or prose; I, like a true born Spaniard, although without a grain of wit, accept the invitation, and will dip my bread in the sauce.""

The most matter-of-fact account of this fiercelycontested battle is to be found in James's Naval History-the sum of which account is that the After summarizing the anterior events of the combined French and Spanish fleets, under Ad-year, and the combining of the French and Spanish miral Villeneuve, consisted of thirty-three ships of fleets, the first Spanish author proceeds to state as the line; that Nelson's force comprised twenty- follows, according to the Review :seven ships of various sizes and armaments; that, "To oppose this force, England is next represented as after a heroic struggle, Villeneuve and the two fitting out a grand armament, at the head of which is Spanish admirals in chief were taken, while nine-placed Nelson; whom the author praises for his great skill and courage, but whom he asserts to have been teen of their vessels were captured, sunk, or de- chiefly animated by a desire of revenging the loss of his stroyed; and that the dying Nelson, amid the arm, of which a Toledo blade, guided by Spanish calour, surrounding ecstasy of victory, had no thought had deprived him in the Canary Islands. The battle connected with glory, but was to the last possessed itself is dispatched in a summary manner, and in very with that absorbing idea of his, namely, duty. Towards the end he says:general terms.

The most romantic account of this memorable conflict is the one furnished by M. Thiers, in that History of the French Empire which revived

'Separanse al fin, quedando
indecisa la victoria,
porque de las tres Esquadras
fué la pérdida pasmosa.'

"At last they separate, and leave the victory undecided, each squadron having suffered a tremendous loss. Afterward, however, he thinks it proper to be more explicit. Having enumerated the Spanish officers of distinction who were killed or wounded, he adds:'Pero aunque son tan sensibles nuestras pérdidas notorias, la satisfaccion logiamos de ver á la fanfarrona Nacion Inglesa de luto por la muerte lastimosa de su gran General Nelson, en quien su esperanza toda tenia depositada;

pues su pérdida mas monta
que la de los otros Gefes,

los diez mil hombres de tropa,

los ciento cincuenta y dos

de Oficialidad briosa,

y diez y nueve navios,

que han perdido en la derrota.'

"But though our losses are great, we have the satisfaction of seeing the vain glorious English mourning the lamentable death of their great Admiral, in whom all their hopes were centered; for the loss of Nelson is of greater moment than all the other chiefs, the ten thousand soldiers, and the hundred and fifty-two brave officers, and the nineteen ships, of which this engagement deprived us.'"

This poem, after the above singular comparative compliment paid to Nelson, ends with the futile cry of "Revanche." Next, coming to the second poem, the Review says :—

[ocr errors]

466

"Nelson, burning to revenge his lost limb, and proudly revolving in his mind the days of Aboukir and Copenhagen, on discovering the floating ensigns of Cisneros aspires to the glory of capturing La Trinidad, the grand object of his ambition; and with fury exclaiming, Let Spanish blood flow in torrents," he fiercely commences the attack... but the ungenerous foe ventures not, ship opposed to ship, to measure his prowess-supported by two more vessels, he endeavours to surround her lofty stern-our consummate warrior, by whom nothing is overlooked, opposes the broad sails to the wind;-the immense machine, obedient to his voice, cuts. the foaming billows in an oblique direction, and, from four batteries in her enormous side, lances thunderbolts which carry fire and devastation among the foe. The Briton flies, like a combatant who, baffled in his attempt to subdue by treachery the unconquered bull, beholds the dreadful forehead of his antagonist threatening instant destruction, and, agonized with fear, seeks shelter from his mortal fury."

The idea of Nelson taking to flight is too audacious for the third bard, but he makes use of the British admiral's ghost for a very droll purpose :—

"In the third poem, the shade of Nelson, rising in the storm from the awful scene of devastation and carnage which had closed the engagement, announces to the haughty genius of Britain the woes which the vengeance of France and Spain is preparing to inflict on his devoted country."

There is no space left for comment on these Spanish views; and in fact they need none. There only remains to express a hope that their repro"Don JOSÉ MOR DE FUENTES assumes a much loftier duction here is not ill-timed, threescore years and tone than the preceding writer. He strictly limits his ten after the name of "Trafalgar" first stirred the muse to a description of the battle of Trafalgar, which is written with great spirit and animation; and he par-heart-pulses of this nation; a name which has not ticularizes the gallant actions and the deaths of several of their principal Commanders: but his account of the commencement of the combat shews that his statements are not always worthy of reliance;—

Ardiendo Nelson en venganza impia
Por su patente mutilado miembro,
Y Abukir, Copenhague en su memoria
Con frenético orgullo repasando,
Al descubrir la tremulante insignia
De Cisneros, aspira á la alta gloria
De arrebatar la Trinidad ansiada,
Y con furor clamando

Corra en arroyos la Española sangre
Se abalanza feroz...mas no se atreve
A medir el aleve

De nave á nave su marcial pujanza,
Y de dos almirantas auxiliado
La escelsa popa á rodear camina,
Quando atento el Guerrero consumado
Las anchas velas contrapone al viento,
Y dócil á su voz la inmensa mole,
En retrogrado obliquo movimiento,
Las espumosas olas arrollando

Y la trémula atmósfera atronando,
Por quatro filas destrozantes rayos
De su enorme costado

Con instantáneo incendio le fulmina.
Huye el Breton, qual lidiador burlado
Que asaltó con ardid la invicta fiera,
Y al mirar sobre si su frente armada
Con fuga apresurada

Y zozobra mortal, procura ansioso
Ponerse en salvo de su cruda sana.'

yet lost its power, less perhaps because of the
great victory than for the hero whose life was
sacrificed to gain it, by fearless fulfilling of his
share of the duty which England expected from
every man under Nelson.

THE FRENCH STATE PAPER OFFICE. Histoire du Dépôt des Archives des Affaires Etrangères à Paris au Louvre en 1710, à Versailles en 1763, et de nouveau à Paris en Divers Endroits depuis 1796. Par Armand Baschet. 8vo. Paris, Plon.

M. Armand Baschet, to whom we are indebted for so many useful historical publications, has quite recently presented us with a volume of considerable interest, and the subject of which commends itself to the readers of this journal. It is a detailed account of the French State Paper Office, and a complete history of the vicissitudes through which it has had to pass from its earliest formation up to the present day. A brief notice of this work will, I trust, be acceptable.

The introduction gives a few particulars on the private collections of political MSS. which existed in various quarters previous to the establishment of the Dépôt des Affaires Étrangères. It will astonish many of our friends to hear that it was only in 1661 that the plan was adopted of pre

From its final "installation" at the palace of abroad. As early, indeed, as the reign of Louis the Quai d'Orsay to the year 1853. On each of XI., there existed, at the Sainte Chapelle of Paris, these divisions I purpose offering a few remarks. a depot known by the name of Trésor des Chartes, GUSTAVE MASSON. and destined to receive the political documents of every kind which it was either essential, or simply convenient, to keep safely. But all papers of that nature did not find their way to the rooms of the Court of Accounts; abuses, irregularities, and neglect, rendered almost inevitable by the continual journeys of the king and his ministers from place to place, prevented the carrying out of an idea which was equally useful and patriotic. In course of time, all the principal political agents of the crown considered themselves lawful owners of the official despatches and other papers they had received or forwarded (in this latter case the rough drafts were always carefully preserved); and these splendid collections were handed down from father to son, along with the plate, tapestry, pictures, furniture, and other valuables, belonging to the family. Thus, as M. Baschet remarks, all the monuments of French diplomacy referring to the reign of Louis XII. were styled, not his Majesty's records, but the Papiers du Cardinal d'Amboise or the Papiers de Florimond Robertet. In like manner, for the administration of Francis I. we have the Papiers de Montmorency (the constable), Papiers de Claude d'Annebault (the admiral), Papiers d'Antoine du Prat (the chancellor), Papiers de Villandry (the king's private secretary), &c., and so on, till after the ministry of Cardinal Mazarine; for the real preservation of the documents relating to foreign affairs began only in 1671, when the papers late in the possession of Hugues de Lyonne were declared, by order of the king, to be State property.

M. Baschet gives us, in his excellent introduction, the history of all the preliminary efforts made at various times by the kings of France and their ministers to procure the private collections of State documents scattered here and there. They were purchased, as opportunity offered, from the heirs, and transferred to the royal library, where savants such as Godefroy, Pasquier, and De Thou, watched carefully over the treasures which began to flock in. The papers of Loménie de Brienne, amounting to 358 folio volumes; those of the brothers Dupuy (777 vols.); of Hippolyte de Béthune (1,000), were successively added, and at last something like method was applied to the classification and cataloguing of these treasures.

I have thus endeavoured to give a slight idea of M. Baschet's introductory essay. The volume itself comprises three distinct parts, corresponding to the following epochs-1. The Foreign State Paper Office from its organization in Paris, 1710, to its translation to Versailles, 1763; 2. From its
