It was the bedstead used by the Emperor in al his campaigns. Between the two divisions of the lent was a crown, which his. devoted servants had carvrtl out of the turf floor, and it was so placed that the emperor could nwt pass through without placing his foot on this em blem of regal dignity.- Napoleon seemed to have no penchant for the pleasures of the table. Ue lived very simply, and cared liltlo or nothing about whtt he ale. lie dined at nine, and at that hour Capi 1,111.1. 1I10 mai Ire d'hotcl, made his appearance, ami with ja pro found revercnce"said in 1 solemn tone, 'I.e diner tie voire majeste est servi.' . . .. lie then retreated backwards, followed by Na poleon and thoscof his suite who were to dine with him. When he had finished, he wouli abruptly push away his chair from the table, afld qui 1 the dining room, apparently glad it ws over. A few days after his arrival, hie inviied my sister and myself to dine wiili him, ami began quiz zing the English for their fondnessy for rtishif and plumb puddings I ncciisod the tVneh in return . for living on frogs, and running into the house 1 brought him acarricature of a long lean French man, with his mouth open, his ongue out and a frog on Hie tip of it, ready to jump down his throat; underneath Was wtiueii, 'A Frenchman's Dinner.' lie laughed at my impertinence, and pinched, my cars as he often did when amused, and some times when a litile provoked at my espieglerie. Le petit Las Cases, ashe called Las Cases' son funned one of the party on that duy; he was then a lad of fourteen, and the Emperor was font) of quizzing him about me, and telling me I should be his wife. Nothing enraged mo so much; I could not hear to be considered such a child, and particularly at that moment, for there was a ball in prospect to which 1 had great hopes of papa allowing me to go, nud 1 knew his objection would be founded on my being loo young. Napoleon seeing my annoyance, desired young Las Cases lo kiss me, and he. held both my hands whilst the little page saluted me. 1 did all in my power lo escape, hut in vain. The moment my hands were at Uierty, 1 boxed Le petit Las Casus' ears most thoroughly. But I determined to be revenged on Napoleon ; and in descending to the cottage to play, whilst an op portunity presented itself, which I did not allow lo escape. There was no internal communication between the part occupied by the Emperor and the rest of the house and the path leading down was very steep und very narrow; there being barely room or one person to pass at p time. Napoleon walk ed first, Las Ca-es next, then his ton, and lastly my sister Jane. 1 allowed the party to proceed very quietly, until 1 was left about ten yards behind: and then 1 ran with all my force on my sister Jane. She fell with extended hands 011 the I till e page, he was thrown upon his father, and the grand cham berlain, to his dismay, was pushed against the Emperor, who although the shock was somewhat diluted by the lime it reached him, had still some dillicully from the steepness of the path, in pre serving his footing. 1 was in ccslucies at the confusion I had crnal- I ed, and exulted in the revenge I had taked for the kiss; but 1 was soon obliged to change my note of triumph. Las Cases was ihtindcrslruck at the insult of fered lo the Emperor, and became perfectly fu- rious at my uncontrollable laughter, lie seized me by the shoulders and pushed me violently on llic rock bank. , It was now my turn to be enraged; I burst into tears of passion, and turning to Napoleon, cried out. '(), sir, he has hurt me.' Never mind,' replied the Emperor. 'Nc plenr pas 1 will hold him while you punish I. 1111.' At da good punishment he got; I boxed the litlle man's ears until he begged for mercy; but I would show him none, and at length, Napoleon let him gp, telling him to run, and if he could not run fasler.than me, he deserved lo be beaten aain. He immediately started ofT as fast as'he could, and I alter him, Napoleon clapping Ins hands and laughing immoderately at our race round the lawn. Las Cases never liked me nfier this adventure, and used to call me a rude hoyden. 1 never met with any one who bore these kind of things so well'as Napoleon. Ho seemed lo enter into every sort of inirtli or fun with the glee of a child, and though I have often tried his patience severely I never knew him to lose his temper, or. fall back upon his rank or anger, to shield himself from the consequences of his own familiarity and indulgence to me. Hooked upon him indeed, when with him, almost as a brother or companion of my own age, and all thecau lions I received, and my own resolutions to treat him wiili more respect and formaliljy were put lo flight the moment t came within the influence of his arch smile and laugh. If I approached him more gravely than usual, and with a more sedate" step and subdued tone, he would, perhaps, begin by saying- 'Eh beiu, qu' as tti Mademoiselle Betsee ? Has le petit Las Cases proved inconstant? If he has, bring him to me;' or some other playful speech, which either pleased or teased me, and made me at once forget all previous determina tions to behave prettily. M y brothers .were at this time quite children, and Napoleon used to allow them to set on his knee and amuse themselves by playing With his orders. More than once he had cut them oil" to please them. desired me to One dav Alexander took up a pack of cards on whirh was the usual fignre of tha great Mff , . a . -1 1 . .- if ' .

' I have often admired its symmetry, and once lold him it did not look large and strung enough to wield a sword. Ibis led to the (object of swords; and one of the emperor's suite who was present, drew his s.ibre from its scabbard, and pointing In some stains on the blade, said it was the blood of Englishmen. The emperor desired him to sheath it, telling him that it was bad -taste to boasl. particularly before ladies. Napoleon then produced from a richly emboss ed case, the most magnificent sword 1 ever be held. The sheath was composed of one entire piece of most splendidly marked tortoise shell, thickly studded with gold bees. The handle not unlike a fleur de lys in shape, wrs of Exqui sitely wrought gold. It was, indeed, the most cosily and elegant weapon I had eve seen. I requested Napoleon 10 allow me to examine it more closely, and then a circumstance which had occurred in the morning, in which I had been much pinned at the Emperor's conduct, flashed across me. Tlie temptation was irresis tible, and 1 determined 10 punish htm for what he had done. I drew the blade out quickly from the scab bard, and began to flourish it over his head, mak ing passes at him, the emperor retreating, until at last 1 fairly pinned him up in the corner. I kept telling him all t he time, that he had belter say his prayers, for I was goinz to kill him. My I exulting cries at last brought my sister lo Napo leon s assistance. She scolded mff . violently, and said she would inform my father if I did not instantly desist. But I only laughed at her and maintained my post, keeping the emperor at bay until my arm dropped from sheer cxhauilalion. I can fancy I see the figure of the grand cham hcrl.nn now, with his spare form and parchment visage, glowing with tear lor the emperor sale- ty. and indignaiion at the insult 1 was offering him. Ho looked as if he could have annihilated me on the spot; but he had felt the weight of my hand before on his ears, and prudence dictated to linn to let me alone. When. I resigned my sword, Napoleon took hold of my ear, which had been bored only tlie day before, and pinched it, giving me great pain. I called out, and then I e took hold of my nose, which he pulled hearijly, but quite in fun. II is good humor never left him during the whole scene. The following was the circumstance which ex cited my ire in the morning. My J'aiher was very strict in enforcing our do ing a French translation every day, and Napole on would often condescend lo look over them and correct their faults. One morning I felt more than usually averse to performing this tssk, and when Napoleon arrived at the collage, and asked whether the translation was ready for htm, 1 had not even begun it. When he saw this, he look up the paper and walked down to the lawn with it to my father, who was preparhtg'to mount his horse to ride to the valley, exclaimed as he approached. 'Dalfofiib voila li: theme do Mademoiselle Batsee. Qu'cllc a Men travaille;' holding up, at the same lime, the blank sheet of paper. My father comprehended imperfectly, but saw by the sheet of paper, and my name being men tioned by the laugliirg Emperor, that he wished me lo be scolded, and entering into the plot, he pretended lo be very angry, and threatened if I did noUinish my translation before he returned . lo dinner, I should be severely punished. He then rode off, and Napoleon left me laughing at my sullen and inoriilirtl nr. And 11 was the re collection of this which made me try to frighten ! him with the sword. j The Emperor, in Die course of the evening j desired a quantity of bijeurterie to be brought i down 10 amuse us, and among oilier things the j miniatures of the young King of Rome. He seemed gratified and delighted when we express ed our admiration of them. He possessed a ; great many portraits of young Napoleon. One ! of llieni represented him sleeping in his cradle. which was in the form of a helmet of .Mars, the banner of France waved over his head, and his tiny right hand supported a small globe. . y 1 asked the meaning of these emblems, and Napoleon sajj he was to be a great warrior, and the globe in his hand signified he was to rule the world. Another miniature on a snuff box, rep resented the little- fellow on his1nees before a crucitix, his lipids clasped, ami his eyes raised to heaven. Uiiderneaih"wete ihese words: "Je prie bon Dieu poor won pore, ma mere, el ma palrie." It was an exquisite thing. Another portrayed him with two lambs, on one of which lie is riding, and the other he is decking out with ribbons. The Emperor told us these lambs were presented lo his son by the in habitants of Paris an univarlike emblem, and perhaps intended as a delicate hint to the Empe ror to make him a more peaceable citizen than his papa. The Paschal lamb however is, I believe, the badge on the colors of a distinguished Briiish reg iment, and perhaps may be intended lo remind the soldier that gentleness and merry are not 111 coitsislent with the fiercer and more lion-like at tributes of his profession. We next law another draMne in which the Empress Maria Iouise and her sou were repre sented, surrounded by a sort of halo of roses and clouds, which I did not admire quite so much as some of the others. Napoleon then said he was going to show us the portrait of the most beautiful woman in the world, and produced an exquisite miniature of f 1 is sister Pauline. Certainly I never saw . any nS 80 perfectly lovely ; I could not keep my eyes from it, and told him how enchanted 1 was with it He seeniml please J Willi my"prairs, und said it proof ol tnte, fof h ar pM haps om of the most lovely woo sen that tier ti r. from the Jf.
