The fate of the son of Napoleon, has universaliy been deplored by the mor: enlightened portion of the civilized world ; and, it is to be regretted that he did not live to realize fruits derivable from the achieved glories of his illustrious ancester. We fancy there are few who will read the annexed without realigin; a painful emotion. ! Only three years ago, when he caine; with his mother to reside at Schonburn, the young Duke of Reichstadt spent the whole remainder of his life either there or at Vienna; only on one or two ceca- sions traveling from either beyond the; distance of » few miles. By his grand-} father, the emperor, as well as by all} the other members of the royal family, } he seemed to have always been treated with extreme kindness. After the de- pariure of his mother for the Italian States, he was committed to the care of various masters, under the superintend- ence of an Austrian nobleman of rank, the Count Maurice de Dietrichsten. Re garding his early education, only two facts of any interest are mentioned : his excessive reluctance at first to learn German, which, however, soon became more his own than French; and his fondness for historical reading, and espe cially for books relating to the career of his father. As a boy, he was, on the whole, dull, grave, worthless ; but docile and affectionate. The news of h’s father’s death, which occurred when he was ten years of age, is said to have produced a visible effect upon him. It was evident, indeed, that the boy, young as he was, had been brooding over the mystery of his own changed conditién, and cherishing as well as he could the thought of his con- nection with the extraordinary human being whom he could dimly recollect as his father, whose bust and portrait he could still see; and who, a3 they tried to explain to him, was now shut up on an island on the other side of the earth, whither the nations of Europe had con- spired to send him for their own safety. ‘The thought of his father became the boy’s simple passion ; and when he could no longer think of that father as still i» existence on earth, his respect for his memory amounted toa worship. Every book that could tell him anything of his father, he devoured with eagerness ; and if he chanced to hear of the arrival of any one at Vienna, who had personal re- lations with the emperor, he was uneasy till he had seen him. At last, to gratify this anxiety for in- formation, his tutors, at his grandfa- ther’s command, began to instruct him systematically in modern history and politics ; concealing from him nothing, says M. de Monthel, that could enlighten him ag to the real course of his father’s life, and its effects on the condition of Europe and only adding such comments and expositions as might make him aware, at the same time, in what points his father was to be reprehended. Per- plexed by such lessons in history, ac- cording to Metternich, the poor boy did his best to come to the right conclusion, and to express himself judiciously to his tutors regarding what he was taught to consider his father’s errors and excesses. in all cases of feeling and instinct, how- ever, his reverence fur the memory of his father prevailed. The very books which his father had liked, such as ‘l'asso and Ossian, became for that reason his favorites. His father’s campaigns and dispatches he made a subject of diligent study, using them as a text for his own military lessons. In short, before he had attained his seventeenth year, he had read and re-read every thing that had been written regarding Napoleon, and chad fixed in his memory all the most minute particulars relating to his military or political life, the names of his gene- rals, his cLief battles, and the various in- cidents in his long career, from his birth in Corsica to his burial in St. Helena. One point ia this great history he would dwell on with special interest— sat where, amid universal acclamations, he himself had come into this world the un- conscious heir to a mighty empire.

That he, the son of Napoleon, was no common person ; that as the owner of a great name, supe- rior actions and qualifications would be required of him; that in some way or other he must take part in the affairs of Europe—such was the idea that inevita- bly took possession of him. The pedan- try of his teachers seems to have fost- ered it to an undue extent. If, for ex- ample, the poor youth contracted an ad- miration for the poet Byron, his teachers were at hand tocriticise the poet for him, and reduce his opinion to the just shape and standard, lest he should commit what, in his case, would be the signal impropriety of exaggerated praise. f again, he was seen to be faliing in love with any of his grandfather's court, they were at hand to reason } ont of the affair, by considerations ui what was due to his peculiar situation, and his im- portance in the public cye. With this notion of the peculiarity of bis position brandished before him trom morning till night, he would go moping about the imperial court, an amiable but unhappy youth. And what, after ail, was the peculiar- ity of his situation, except extreme in- significance. A pensioner, in the mean time, on the imperial bounty, ultimately the mere possessor of some Bohemian estate, (his mother’s second marriage, in 1819, with the Count Nipperg, having severed him from Italy still more com- pletely than before,) doomed io inactivi- ty by the misfortune of too great a name, was there not a mockery in all that so- licitnde of which he found himself the object? Haunted, it would appear, by some such feeling, and yet carried for- ward by the restless sense that he must do something or other to merit his name, be seems to have grasped at the only chance tha was presented to him—mili- tary promotion in his graudfather’s ser- vice. Hence the assiduity with which he pursued his military stadies, and the regularity with which he presented him- seif at all reviews and parades, the Vien- nese pointing him out oa such occasions 2s the son of Napoleon. When, at last, fier going through the grades, le was permitted by his grandfather to assume the rank and uniform cf a lieutenant colonel, his delight was wuibounded. For three days the poor yor: appeared at the head of his regiment, giving the word of command—on the fou was laid aside with loss cf voice and hoarse- aeSs. ‘Lhere was one quarter of the b:crizon, however, to which the son of Napoleon wuold often wistfully loox-—that France te which he belonged to; to which his dy.ng father had bequeathed him wiih such solemn injunctions that they should ve true one to the other; and where even yet there were myriads of veteran hearts hat beat high at the name oi Bonaparie. His Ausirian education had, indeed, iso- iated him from all means of direct com munication with his native country, and had made him, in many respects, alien to it; but certain cords there were which still secretly bound hin to France. “4 know no one at Paris,” Le said to a French officer that was on the point of returning home afier a visit to Vienna, “but salute for me the column Vendome.” On the other hand, :f he was personally forgotten or unknown in the city which Le thus knew only from the map, there were at least principles avd men that were ready to burst out in his behalf. So, at all events, 1t appeared, when the revolution of July, 1830, came to be trensacted. Had the young Napoleon been in Paris, or near it, when the revo- lution occurred, how different might have been the issue. ‘‘Absent as he was,” says Louis Blanc, “if an cld general of the Emperor had but pronounced bis name to the people, when Lafayette and Guizot were chaffering for Duc d’Orleans, France might have had a Napoieon Il, instead of Louis Philippe. Some timid Bonapartist attempts, it appears, were actually made. In Paris, one Bona- partist came to a meeting of the leading politicians, with the name ef the Duke of Reichsiadt on his lips, was dexterously locked up in a room till the L:. ness was over. Communications were even con- veyed to the Duke himself. When the news of ihe revolution reach- ed Vienna, the young man could not con- ceal his agitation; he even requested, it is said, in the flutter of a moment, to be allowed to go to the assistance of Charles X. But with the news of the accession of Louis Phillippe, other thoughts suc- ceeded. One evening as he was ascend- ing a staircase in the imperial palace, a young woman enveloped in a Scotch plaid, rushed forward from a landing place, where she seems to have been waiting, and taking his hend, pressed it eagerly to her lips. His tutor, who was with him, asked her busine ‘May I not kiss,” she said, “the hand of my sovereign son #”’ and immediate! y peared. For some time, tue in could not be explained, but at len doubt remained that the fair stranger was his cousin, the Countess Camerate, a married daughter of his deceased aunt Bocchiochio. on a visit to Vienna, the Countess had constituted herself the wedium of com- munication between the Bouapartists and her young cousin, to whom she even ven- tured some months after the revolution of July, to address a letter, encovraging him, even then, to assume a decided part. From these, and all overtures of the same kind, the poor youth seems to have shrunk with a kind of duaful horror; and his excitement during the revoivuen cf 1830, soon subsiding into 2 culimer mood, he began, we are told, to write dovn in the form of an essay, a series of very Austriao reflections on his owa life, and tbe relations in which he s:ood to corer Ouly once did bis tation return— ne peeale, ieee, of the political movements of his mother’s state of Parma.
