HISTORICAL DOCUMENTS

AND

REFLECTIONS ON THE GOVERNMENT

OF

HOLLAND.

BY LOUIS BONAPARTE,

EX-KING OF HOLLAND.

"Do what you ought, happen what may."

LONDON: Printed for LACKINGTON, HUGHES, HARDING, Mavor, and JONES, Finsbury-square. Sold also by W. BLACKWOOD and Co. and ARCHIBALD CONSTABLE and Co. Edinburgh; MARTIN KEENE, Dublin, and by all other Booksellers.

THE work here offered to the public, under the title of Historical Dvcuments and Reflections on the Government of Holland, will not be uninteresting in the present day, and is capable of furnishing valuable materials for history. It is translated from the original manuscript copy, transmitted to this country for publication by the author, which is deposited in the hands of the publishers, where it may be seen.

Its authenticity is indisputable. It is easy to discern in the slightest particulars that character of frankness and moderation, that enlightened philanthropy, for which the author was particularly distinguished. The work may be considered in two points of view. In the first it belongs to the department of history: the events of the celebrated period it retraces, though known, acquire an additional interest from the pen of their historian. The rank he filled on the stage of the world initiated him into the secrets of cabinets; deriving facts from their very source, an actor or eye-witness in most of them, the veracity of the writer is a pledge of their accuracy. The historical part comprises all that period after Louis Bonaparte ascended the throne of Holland, till the time when he chose rather to resign the sceptre, than become the subaltern tyrant of a people, whose destiny had been committed to his care: this part displays more especially a full description of the interior administration of Holland; the particular views of Louis for the happiness and independence of that kingdom; his

long resistance to the opposite system of Napoleon in this respect; and the motives that finally made him determine to retire, and brought on the union of Holland with France:-particulars not less interesting respecting the family of Bonaparte, its origin, the condition of the members of it at the time of the union of Corsica with France; the fortune and elevation of Napoleon and his brothers, the conquest of Italy, the expedition to Egypt, the consulship, the empire, the peace of Tilsit, &c., and the proposals then made to the English government by France and Russia:-the invasion of Spain; the renunciation of Charles IV. and Ferdinand VII. the refusal of Louis Bonaparte to ascend the Spanish throne; his opinion on the political causes of that disastrous war, &c.

Taking this work in a second point of view, we may consider it as a collection of political and private memoirs relating not only to Louis Bonaparte and his family, but to other personages equally remarkable. From the following summary the reader will be enabled to form an idea of the attractions it presents. The motives, hitherto secret, of the marriage of Louis with the daughter of Josephine; the causes that led the married pair mutually to agree to a separation; the circumstances that preceded and followed the dissolution of Napoleon's marriage with Josephine; political reasons that induced Napoleon to refuse different princesses, whose hands were offered him, and to prefer the daughter of the Emperor of Austria; -correspondence of Napoleon with his brother, and of the French ministers with the Dutch ministers;-in fine, a number of new and curious anecdotes, which render this work truly deserving the attention of the public.

Little need be added respecting the author: his political career pertains to the historian, and it is the business of history to decide upon it. But it is a pleasure to do homage to his private virtues: his book every where displays that touching simplicity, that love of mankind, which form the basis of his character. It is particularly remarkable for a singular degree of impartiality; while neither the truth of its pictures, nor the interest attached to its details, is at all injured by the author's modesty in speaking of himself, or his reserve in speaking of others. Unquestionably there is an elevation of style, which genius itself does not always employ: but at least as a work, in which every thing breathes goodness without weakness, philosophy without ostentation, and a prudent though courageous freedom, we venture to affirm, it cannot fail to be justly valued by its readers; and will be considered as a record, at once curious and authentic, of a period for ever memorable.
