It is said that Buonaparti;., in
conversation w'ith the English Ad
miral obferved—ln lurrendering
myfelf ro any other power than
England, I.fhould be fubjcs to the
caprice and will of an individual.
In iubmitting to the Engliffi, I place
myfelf at the mercy of a nation **
There have been and will be so
many things fabricated of Bona
parte’s actions and
that it is difficult to felefft what is
orthodox. However, whether he
made the remark attributed to him
or not, the fad: of hi§ having pre
ferred England-~is a prooi (among
thousands) of his knowledge of
human nature, and decision wittt
which he applies that knowledge.
In any countty not wholly
potic, in every count) y where the
people are of any weight in lociety ,
there is created a check to tyranny
and an benevolence call
ed opinion. It is public opinion
which modifies and ameliorates the
operation of the severest ffatues ;
it il public opinion that (lands 3-
gainft the caprice of kings, and
; forces them in fome degr'ee, to a
compliance with its didates.—
Where public opinion is mod pow
erful in its contriml; there the peo
ple are moft freely Jhe influence
of this Archatus increases with
the expansion ot ; uitellect., languifli
es with its opprefnqh, and is newer
totally extinguilhed, but when Jef
potifm and priest craft have obliter
ated every vestige of literature.

In England, public opinion
has considerable sway : in Ameri
ca, it is all-powerful. Sensible of
this, Bonaparte, it appears, made
several efforts to escape to this coun
try. Whatever were the impref
fjdns of hatred or of prejudice
the uni*erfal sentiment, the dictates
of honor and of common juftice*
would have induced us to receive
and protedf him. Approaching
our shores, he might have exclaim
ed with \V,oolfey,
“A brave man, bufftted by the si or ms
effate.
Is come to lay his wearied bones among
you ; *°
Give him a Tittle earth for charity .”
And could we have refufed the ap
peal ?—But it has been ordered o
therwise. The appeal has not been
made, and the fearful may calm
their terrors. Buonapare lias de
livered himfeif, voluntarily to Eng
land. He has taken the chance of
the influence of that sentiment, that
popular and powerful impulse of
pride and honor—which is to de
termine his fate.
Oft his last a£L we ccnfefs, we
are of opinion, it 13 charaderiilic of
his usual policy and .courage. Os
policy , because the British are not
only to decide upon his deiliny but,
upon their own charader ;• of cou
rage, because a less decisive, a lets
elastic mind, would have funk un
