NAPULbUN BUNAPAHTb. Petitions to Be Sent to Organize the Turkish Army. QUELLS REVOLT OF THE SECTIONS. Kecret That Hr Wa» Compelled to Kill Frenchmen—Joachim Murat Appears. The Sword of Count Hcatiharuaie* Falls In Love With Josephine. [Copyright, lsi>5, by John Clark Ridpath.] IX.—Beginning of Order by the Sword. Tho motive of Napoleon in refusing to accept an honorable appointment iu tho field given rise to speculation. His action reveals both character and policy. Ho deemed it not expedient to change from artillery to infantry, unless to the independent command of an army. He now foresaw the tremendous opportunities about to bo afforded to military genius. War was to bo tho order of the day, not only for France, but for all Europe. The field opening for tho Army of tho West was narrow. A general in that quarter must assail Frenchmen only. In La Vendee there was no British flag—as at Toulon—to add provocation, and justify attack. Loyulism there was

Tho prescience of Napoleon in reiusing the command lies in tho question, What will become of Hoche? Moreover, tho rapid changes in the military management of the Republic left little doubt iu Napoleon’s mind that his services would soon be sought. Finally, the striking of his name from the list of general officers was only from tho list of those on nctii'c dull/. Thus his rank was preserved with little injury to ins future prospects. Ou tho 14th of September, 1794, Napoleon, partially restored to favor, was given the command of tho artillery iu a proposed expedition to Corsica; and this po;-t ho nominally held until March of 1795; but the period was without events. Meanwhile, finding himself with no command at all, he conceived what may bo regarded as his first great project of statesmanship. Bonaparte perceived that tho ultimate enemy of tho ascendency of Franco was England, and that ono great arm of her power was her influence in tho Eastern Mediterranean countries. This might bo broken, mark it well I bj/ the n'/ciiru of Turkey. The thought of the Corsican was this: If the Republican administration of France will send .l/cto Constantinople, to organize and discipline the Turkish army, then the Ottoman power will be sufficiently strengthened and Europeanized to renounce tho influence of Great Britain and, iu full autonomy, to become a member of a possible coalition of European powers against the comi*iou enemy of all! During the period of his enforced inactivity at Paris, Napoleon prepared a plan intended for the National Convention, outlining his purpose. It was a virtual petition that he be sent to Constantinople, with six or seven competent officers, to organize tho military power of the Turkish empire against Great Britain in the East. Bourrieune justly remarks that if the clerk of tho War Office had only written tho word “granted” on Napoleon’s paper, that one word would probably have changed tho political fate of Europe for centuries to come. Napoleon at this time was twen-ty-six years of ago. His scheme was worthy of Richelieu, of Talleyrand, of Motternich, of Disraeli in hG rip'^t

years.

Tho word “granted” was not written. Tho French Revolution rapidly worked out its own results, and in doing so provided a plaoc for Bonaparte according to the higher laws of destiny. After tho overthrow of tho Terror the Convention went on, rather temperately, to complete the new frame of government called the “Constitution of the Year III.” Tlirt instrument was adopted on tho ~~ud of August, 1 I li.i. Id proved to bo not sufficiently intense for the statesmanship of the Faubourgs. The Parisie.u centers of agitation began to resound with denunciations of the latent aristocracy in the new plan of government. For about a month the broil was kept up by deraocratio pamphleteers and oratnis who umno Dhu h.*sc)iiciii*b of *Sd. Antoine vocal and smoky with their ob-

jurgations.

Then tho mobs began to rise iu sacred right of insurrection. Several of the Forty-eighth Sections took up arms against the Convention; and that great body was imperiled by the onrushiug of a counter revolution. Matters came to a crisis iu the beginning of October. The Convention had to protect itself by force or perish. Swift, swift was the work now necessary to be done. The stifled, but not extinct, Jacobinism of Paris began to bellow; and mobs from the disaffected quarters of the city came on tumultuously to assail the Convention Hall and overthrow the existing govern-

ment

xsever nas mstory snown a more dramatic scene than that which now ensued. It was the 5th of October, 1795. Iu the peril of the hour the Convention drew to itself tho troops that were still faithful to tho established order. A commander was necessary. By a hasty decree this dangerous honor was conferred on Paul Francois Barras, president of tho Convention. Ho was intrusted with the fearful responsibility of protecting the body and preserving, if possible, tho half-ripe—but ripening— fruits of six years of legislative toil and travail. Ho had already shown himself capable iu two preceding riots. This ono, however, was mure formidable. What he most of all needed in tho emergency was a real commander, who had the courage and skill to extemporize, with all haste, a division of troops for the defense of the government Barras arose iu his place, and nominated as his lieutenant and second iu command Napoleon Bonaparte. He hail seen that

officer at his guns before Toulon.

Napoleon himself was sitting, obscurely, in tho gallery when his name was presented for the perilous duty. He accepted; and immediately there was speedy work. A young officer, whom Napoleon knew, Joachim Murat by name—whom history will presently record as the great cavalry general of tho empire—was sent-with all speed out to the Champ do Sablons, to whirl iu the batteries stationed there. In a few hours guns were planted around tho Convention Hall, and at the near-by bridges of the Seine, commanding all lines of approach; and at the breeches stood grim

gunners with lighted mutches.

Here, then, was business for life or death. The insurrection rolled itself iu great volumes along the streets. It might bo seen coming on like tho sea. The Section Lopellotier leads tho van. The insurgents got possession of the church of St. Roch, nearby, and then of Pout Nenf, and then bristle up face to face with the guns of tho Corsican. There isnot a moment’s hesitation. The order to lire is quick and sharp. Tho Convention Hall is suddenly shaken to foundation stones with tho roar of artillery. Tho guns are loaded with grape and canister. Horrid gaps are cut in long bloody alleys through the insurgent mob. Men—Frenchmen—are blown by hundreds to horrid death. They go back before the bail of destruction. Tho National Convention is saved. General Bonaparte lias tho honor of suppressing tho lafct mob of tiio French Revolution! Strange to note what the effect of all this was on tho man himself. Ho was in nowise jubilant. Indeed ho had hesitated for a half hour before accepting tho place of general against tho revolt- ! ed Sections. In his report ho covered up his own responsibility—as tho facts gave him oppor f uuity to do—making it appear, contrary to his, wont, that not he, ; but others, had put down tho mob. Ho | had acted only under orders of the Na- | tional Convention and General Barras! Ever through life, moreover, he looked | back with regret to this hour and event of his career. Doubtless, at bottom, ho was a Jacobin himself; but ho was an | Imperial Jacobin. Tho two elements in his character did not consist; tho one |

was at war with the other.

Thus much only is certain, that Napoleon would gladly have had his great triumph over the Parisian insurgents \ blotted from tho record. No doubt he ! was at heart at one with insurrection; j but lie was also tho friend of order. His success in restoring order in the I capital may bo said to have made Napoleon famous. He had already become an adviser of tho Committee of Public j Safety. Indeed ho held that relation bo- | fore his name was stricken from the list of generals in active service. Eleven days after tho suppression of the Sections, he was made provisionally General of Division, and four days afterwards the “provisionally” was struck out, and he was appointed commander of tho Army of the Interior, having as its central field of operations Paris it-

self.

Destiny reserved for the winter of 1795-96 another capital fact in the life of her devotee. Napoleon found Josephine. Ho first met her at the house of Barras. She belonged to the Societo des Victimos—“Society of the Victims.” To enter this band of tho now elite Parisiennes, one must have lost recently a near relative by tho guillotine! Josephine had lost one—her husband. The Vicomte Alexandre do Boauharnais had married Marie Josopbo Rose Tascher, the beautiful Creole of Martinique, iu December of 1779. She was then iu her seventeenth year. In 1780 tho Vicomte came to America with Rochambeau. Afterwards he vas a deputy in

of the National Convention. He commanded, under Cusline, at Meutz, in 1793, when that place was surrendered to the Germans. Tu surrender was! death. Ho was haled to trial, con- | demned and guillotined only five days] before the collapse of the Terror. When ] Robespierre fell, the Societo dos Victimes was formed. The light creatures took wing like bulleiilios from the blood-pools of tho Place do la Revolution. They still wore crepo on their | arms when they began to dance anew in Greek sandals and chignons and classical scarfs girdled at tho waist. Napoleon saw ono of them, and admirakaud

So lie told Bonrrionno, while pointing oul Josephine one evening at a fashionable cafe. There was a swift courtship. A story goes that EugenoBeauharnais went to Napoleon to recover his father the V.icomte’s sword, which had been take* at tho disarmament of the Sections. The youth got the sword, kissed it, won the General’s sympathy—and Madame de Beuuharuais came to thank her benefactor. If this happened, she know him al- ’ ready; and he knew her. Tho marriage occurred on tho 9th of March, 1796. The disparity of ages was six years and two mouthy, To close this chasm, the marriage oertificatos dated her birth forward four years, and antedated his by nineteen months. Docnments must conform to the exigencies of tho groat I John Clark Ridvath.
