If the monarchy of Francis II. Has been able to resist violent shocks, it is because it has a war like people, and a good system of recruiting its forces be cause its geographical position is singularly favorable for defense, and lastly, because, in great danger, it is rescued from shipwreck by Russia or England. The position of Austria towards us was a false one this was made so, first, by the revolution, which produced the first coalition second, by the invasion of Switzerland, which produced the second coalition; and third, by the annexa tions of Italy to France, which caused the third coalition.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Napoleon Buonaparte, Vol. 3 Napoleon on leaving Schonbrunn returned to France by way of Munich, where he waited for the ratification of the treaty by Austria. TO convey the intelligence as soon as possible, military posts were placed on the heights at certain distances, who were to give the signal by white flags in the day and by bonfires kindled at night. The news of the ratification came the third day of the Emperor's stay at the capital of Bavaria. He set out next day for Fontainebleau, where he arrived a few hours before the Em press, who had left Strasburg for Paris a month before.. There were marks of uneasiness on her countenance and an appearance of constraint in 'napolepn's behavior to her.

They returned to Paris on the 14th of November, where the presence of the King of Sax ony sometimes relieved the awkwardness of a téte c'z téte but it was easy to remark a considerable alteration in the features of the Empress and a silent reserve on the part of the Emperor.

Download or read book The History of Napoleon the First Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by Pierre Lanfrey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Napoleon the First, Vol. 3 Such was the fresh attitude which Bonaparte had just assumed in his last manifestoes, after his brilliant triumphs over the Prussian monarchy. This change which had been prepared for long before, did not at once strike all minds, nor were its consequences immediately felt, but it deserves the more notice because it marks the exact period at which France lost that marvellous power of attraction which she derived from her revolution, and which gave her her temporary influence. Hitherto, in spite of all the acts of violence and treachery which had dispelled their illusions, the nations had continued to regard her as an instrument of deliverance and liberation: they henceforth began to consider her as the fearful personifica tion of conquest, Oppression, and despotism. At the time of our entrance into Poland, we had striking evidence of the existence of these sentiments among a people who by nature, by tradition, and by interest were the'least disposed to share them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Napoleon Buonaparte, Emperor of the French, Vol. 3 of 3: With a Preliminary View of the French Revolution The Empe'ror Napoleon received that declaration of war, with the calmness of one by whom it had been for some time expected. It was better, he said, to have a declared enemy than a doubtful ally. By the Prussians at large it was heard with all the rapture of gratified hope, and the sacrifices which they made, not willingly only, but eagerly, show more completely than any thing else can, the general hatred against France, and the feelings which that nation had excited during her career of success.
