the French Archives.
[3] Jefferson also placed his daughter there.
[4] This was granted in 1800 to John Cleaver Banks in order to examine
manuscripts in the National Library.
[5] Camelford, in 1802, sold the borough for £42,000 to Dupré Porcher.
[6] _Times_, March 3, 1801.
[7] In January 1793, quitting his wife, he followed to Paris Aimé de
Coigny, Duchess de Fleury, of whom he had become the paramour at Rome,
and who had gone to London for her accouchement. Being arrested, he
applied to her previous lover Lauzun to procure his release, but was
liberated without any necessity of mediation and returned to London.
[8] Pitt was inclined in 1797 to entertain the overture, but the
French _coup d’état_ put an end to negotiations. See _Fortescue
Papers_, iii. pp. 356–357. The French authorities ordered Melville’s
arrest, but he apparently fled in time, and coolly revisited Paris in
1802.
[9] The Jacobins were scandalised at the pomp with which he entered
Paris, where the market-women waited on him to make and receive
presents.
[10] Talbot, when acting at Berne in Wickham’s absence in 1797,
advanced money to French conspirators for a scheme of massacring the
members of the Directory at the Luxembourg, and he applied to his
Government for further funds for that purpose; but Grenville and
Canning refused to countenance the scheme and directed him to get back
the money (Martel, _Historiens Fantaisistes_). Though thus rebuked
Talbot was not dismissed.
[11] J. F. Neville, _Leisure Moments_.
[12] Detected in 1802 he was hanged for the murder of Sergeant
Armstrong at Goree in 1782.
[13] This was a saving of expense, for Napoleon had refused to pay the
£2,000,000 demanded for their maintenance.
[14] It is pleasant to think that Lauriston, Macdonald, and Clarke,
three men of British extraction, were among the few French generals who
on Napoleon’s return from Elba remained faithful to the Bourbons.
[15] M.P. for Eye in 1820.
[16] The suit of carriages for the use of Marquis Cornwallis in France
consists of a town coach, the body yellow, with arms, supporters,
crests, and the Order of the Garter, surrounded with mantles, all
highly emblazoned. The lining morocco with rich silk lace, and
reclining cushions of silk and morocco. The carriage crane-neck;
the hammer-cloth a bear-skin ornamented with silver paws. A town
chariot painted to correspond, with arms, supporters, crests, and
the Garter, but no mantles; crane-neck. A travelling coach, painted
the same; crane-neck with imperials, etc. Harness has been made
for twelve horses ornamented with silver in coronets, crests, and
the Garter, with reins, tassels, and toppings, decorated with silk
button-hangers.--_Times._
[17] The termination of the Congress at Amiens was an object of the
deepest regret to the Prefects and officers, civil as well as military.
The establishment of each ambassador had its particular merit. That
of Marquis Cornwallis was distinguished for the magnificence of his
liveries, and the splendour of his table and equipage. On all his grand
dinners, his Lordship had twelve servants in rich liveries, besides six
_Valets-de-Chambre_ also in a kind of scarlet uniform.
But in regard to the luxuries of the table, and the choice of his
wines, citizen Schimmelpenninck, the Batavian plenipotentiary, outdid
all other competition. He had his turbot and eels from Holland,
pike and perch from the Rhine; and the heaths and woods of Provence
supplied him with game. No wonder that the absence of such a man
should be lamented by the _Mayor and Common Council_ of that
city.--_Times_, April 2, 1802.
[18] The Warrens and the Jacksons were kinsmen, for in 1796 a Rev.
Dawson Warren had married Caroline Jackson.
[19] Despatches, Record Office.
[20] In 1809 he was appointed minister at Washington.
[21] He died from a hunting accident in 1815.
[22] Afterwards minister to the Argentine Republic.
[23] Son of Lord Pierrepont (created Earl Manvers in 1806).
[24] The embassy apparently required a Frenchman to translate or
correct its letters to Talleyrand, for in 1804 François Soulès, who had
lived twelve years in England and had translated English works, applied
for the Legion of Honour on the ground that he had not only helped to
capture the Bastille, but had been employed by Whitworth.

[26] A. F. 1539–1543.
[27] The return coach left Paris at 6 A.M., but from July 1802
there was also a _berline_ with six places which started at 4
P.M., travelled all night, and arrived as soon as the morning
coach.

[30] In 1814, according to Kirwan, the fishwives no longer carried
passengers on their backs, but wading through the water tugged or
pushed small boats ashore. But Richard Bernard Boyle was carried ashore
by three men, one holding each leg and the third pushing behind.
[31] Also his biographer. Trotter died in poverty in 1818, aged
forty-three.
[32] Her age is given in the police register as sixty-three, but
as she died in 1842 at the age of ninety-two, she was really only
fifty-two. Fox’s age, on the other hand, is given as fifty, whereas
it was fifty-three. The ages in the register seem sometimes to be
hotel-keepers’ random guesses.

death married James Kenney, the dramatist. She died in 1853. Her
brother accompanied Holcroft back to England, but the printing-office
started by them did not succeed.

[100] It was published by William Dugard, a Worcestershire man, but
to judge by his name, of French extraction. He was master of Merchant
Taylors’ School, London, printer to the Council of State, and a friend
of Milton. See _Dictionary of National Biography_, which does not,
however, mention his newspaper.

[114] Weston tells us that some of the pictures, much damaged in
transit, had had to be repaired. Shepherd noticed many soldiers at the
Louvre gazing triumphantly at the pictures conquered by them.
[115] Redhead Yorke, _Letters from France_.
[116] One of these was Manning. At first, indeed, imperfect knowledge
of French deterred him, for Lamb wrote to him:--‘Your letter was just
what a letter should be, crammed and very funny. Every part of it
pleased me till you came to Paris, then your philosophical indolence or
indifference stung me. You cannot stir from your rooms till you know
the language. What the devil! Are men nothing but ear-trumpets? Are men
all tongue and ear?’
But presently he says:--‘ ... the god-like face of the First Consul....
I envy you your access to this great man much more than your
_seances_ and conversaziones, which I have a shrewd suspicion must
be something dull.’ (S. Wheeler, _Letters of Lamb_.)
Among the lectures by which he profited were those on Chinese by Joseph
Heger, a German whom he may have previously met in London.

[124] Reichardt, however, comparing France with Germany, speaks of the
increase of drinking, and of young men deliberately assembling for a
carouse; he also speaks of gormandising.
[125] Information kindly supplied by Canon Jessopp.
[126] Reichardt, who met Bishop Grégoire and Kosciuski at her house,
describes her as wearing a cap with long flaps covering her cheeks, and
with a large bouquet falling down from her hair to her nose, so that
with her constant nods and gesticulations there were only occasional
glimpses of her eyes and mouth. He was bored, too, by the poetical
recitations of Vigée, Madame Vigée-Lebrun’s brother. Poole, however,
was pleased at meeting so many _literati_, and Meyer, canon of
Hamburg, thought the hostess resembled Angelica Kaufmann.

[132] I can find no confirmation of this story. If there was a duel, it
must have been with Thomas Pitt, Lord Camelford, but Christopher was
probably confused with Thomas Potter, a member of Wilkes’s Hell-fire
club, who, elected as an anti-Pittite, joined Pitt, and in 1756 was
appointed Paymaster of the Forces. The two Potters may or may not have
been kinsmen.

[156] Some French ladies, who were disagreeably crowded by public
curiosity in Kensington Gardens, complained heavily of our want of
_politesse_. They should remember, however, that they were not
quite undressed in the fashion, and that the English ladies always walk
out with something upon their heads, however they treat the rest of
their persons.--_Times_, April 19, 1803.
[157] Holcroft was told by a French lady, who sent for him to make this
confidence and received him in her bath, that Fiévée was commissioned
to bribe London newspapers (_Travels from Hamburg to Paris_).

[222] This was not the only marriage among the captives.
[223] This was not the only case of unaccountable desertion. Edmund
Wilson, born in Italy, was left behind in France at the age of three
years by his English parents--there was an Andrew Wilson, an artist,
a visitor, but surely he was not the delinquent--and was adopted by
the Comtesse d’Aumale. He became a prominent liberal Catholic, and
from 1829 to 1831 contributed to the _Correspondant_ till it was
superseded by the more advanced _Avenir_ of Lamennais. It was,
however, revived in 1842 and still exists. For seventeen years ‘le sage
Wilson,’ as he was called on account of his habitual circumspection,
presided over Sunday gatherings of Parisian apprentices. He was
unmarried, a sort of lay monk, was very charitable, and was never
naturalised in France. He died in 1862.

[306] Philip Dormer Stanhope had settled in France or Belgium about
1790, and during the war procured remittances from England through
the Paris bankers Perregaux and Laffitte. Was he a son of Lord
Chesterfield’s illegitimate son? If so, the latter was a father at
the age of nineteen, for he was born in 1732, and this Philip Dormer
Stanhope gave his age in September 1814 on applying for domicile
in France as sixty-three. Possibly, however, this last figure is a
misprint in the _Bulletin des Lois_.
