‎Napoleon "IV" Bonaparte, son of Napoleon III and proclaimed Napoleon IV, Emperor of the French by the Bonapartist faction (1856-1879).‎

‎Autograph letter signed ("Napoléon"). Apparently Camden Place, Chislehurst, Kent, [1. V. 1877].‎

‎8vo. 1 page on bifolium. In French, to "mon cher Général" whom he invites to England to speak with him about the turn that events will take. A meeting is about to be held in Camden where the general will meet among others Raoul Duval (French politician, 1807-93). On the eve of this meeting Napoléon IV would like to take the advice of the most influential and powerful men. Napoléon IV does not want to give an official character to this little reunion in order not to harm certain people but still he asks the general to show this letter which could be taken for a convocation rather than an invitation. Napoléon IV ends his letter by sending his regards to the general's wife and sons as well as to the general himself, asking him to arrive in England on the 5th or 6th May. - On headed stationery "Camden Place, Chislehurst".‎

‎Napoleon / Lapi, Pierre Joseph Christian / Marchand, Louis Joseph.‎

‎Proclamation of the Governor of Elba after the Departure of Bonaparte dated 27 February 1815. Proclama. Il Generale Lapi Governatore dell'Isola dell' Elba, Ciambellano di S. M. L'Imperatore Napoleone, Direttore dei Domini, e beni Particolare della Corona…. Publicato in Portoferraio li 27 febraio 1815. Portoferraio, Elba, 27. II. 1815.‎

‎3 items: 1) Single folio [29 x 20.7 cm] on laid paper, watermarked with a fleur-de-lis, with Italian text beginning: "Abitanti. Il Nostro Augustissimo Sovrano richiamato dalla Divina Providenza alla sua antica gloria, ha dovuto abbandonare la nostra Isola…". Docketed on verso by a contemporary English hand: "Proclamation of the Governor of Elba after the Departure of Bonaparte dated 27 February 1815". - 2) Bifolium [26 x 20 cm] on laid paper, watermarked with an unidentified two-letter monogram, with fair copies of the same Italian text repeated on each recto. - 3) Single folio notepaper [19 x 13 cm] on laid, unwatermarked paper, with 1.5 pp of English text, headed "Proclamation to the Soldiers of the 7th Military Division". With a handful of corrections. A remarkable assortment of contemporary manuscript ephemera relating to Napoleon's infamous escape from Elba on the night of 26 February 1815. Lapi, a medic by profession, had been secretly promoted to Brigadier General by Napoleon upon his departure. The present proclamation, dated the day after the escape, was probably intended to be copied and circulated in manuscript for the benefit of the inhabitants of Elba, and we have traced no record of its having been printed. - The text of Lapi's proclamation explains to the Elbans that he has been placed in charge of the island in Napoleon's stead, and exhorts them to keep order during the Emperor's absence. Marchand (1791-1876) was a 24-year-old devotee and valet-du-chambre of Napoleon, but issued his own proclamation as a 'Lieutenant General' - here rendered into slightly unidiomatic English by a contemporary hand. The text was meant to urge French soldiers to re-embrace their former leader: - "Soldiers, Bonaparte has landed on our coast, and advences [sic] into the interior of France. Let us Remember that he has disengaged us from our oaths, and that we have taken others to the king. You will be faithfull to Honour and to your Duty and this storm will be soon Dispersed. We will see then a beautifull Country be come Powerfull and happy. But if on the Contrary you suffer yourselves to be led by perfidious Councils every unhappiness will be thundred [sic] upon us. France will be again Invaded by Foreign armies, your Parents Pillaged, your villages ravaged, and our Enemies Divid among themselves our Country. Soldiers, you know your cheifs [sic], you know that they are incapable of conducting you otherwise than on the Road of Hoñor. Your cheifs [sic] have an entire confidence in you; Listen always to their vice [sic], and the Country will not be come a Prey to the Enemy. Signed the Lieutenant General Count Marchand". - The English docket inscription on Lapi's proclamation and the English translation of Marchand's proclamation strongly suggest that the present documents originated in the British commission resident on Elba, led by Colonel Neil Campbell.‎

‎Napoleon, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Document signed ("Bonaparte"). Cairo, "le 26 fructidor an 6" [12 September 1798].‎

‎Small folio (227 x 345 mm). 1 page. On headed stationery. Framed and glazed (320 x 441 mm). A scribal order to establish boards of trade in several Egyptian cities. Napoleon writes to his general in Cairo, requesting the names of such persons suitable to staff the Cairo board, mentioning that the board members for Rosette, Alexandria and Damiette will be named by the generals in charge there, and concluding with a request for three copies of the order, intended for the other generals: "Vous trouverez cy joint l'ordre p. l'établissement d'un tribunal de commerce. Faites moi passer les noms de ceux qui vous croyez devoir composer le tribunal de caire. Quant aux tribunaux de rosette, d'alexandrie et de damiette, les généraux commandant en place en nommeront les membres. Je vous prie de me faire passer aujourd'huy trois copies de cet ordre pour être envoyée à ces generaux [...]". - With a handwritten postscript, presumably by the recipient, passing on the order to his colleagues in Alexandria, Rosette and Damiette (dated Cairo, "27 fructidor an 6" [13 September 1798]). - Very slightly brownstained in places; upper margin somewhat dust-toned. A fine document of Napoleon's efforts to set up French colonial administration in Egypt.‎

‎Napoleon, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Letter signed "Nap". Erfurt, 9. X. 1808.‎

‎4to. ½ p. To the archchancellor Jean-Jacques-Régis de Cambacérès, reporting that the Congress of Erfurt was continuing as planned but there were no new developments: "Les Conférences continuent ici; tout va au mieux; il n'y a du reste rien de nouveau. Sur ce je prie Dieu qu'il vous ait, mon Cousin, en sa sainte et digne garde". - The meeting between Napoleon and Alexander I of Russia, known as Congress of Erfurt, lasted from 27 September to 14 October in the then-French city and was supposed to reaffirm the French-Russian alliance that had been forged by the Treaties of Tilsit in July 1807. Napoleon was eager to impress his imperial guest and spared no expenses, hosting lavish receptions, hunting parties, and theatre performances. On the occasion of the Congress, Napoleon received Goethe on 2 October 1808, and Niccolò Paganini performed for the two emperors. - In the hand of Napoleon's private secretary Claude-François Méneval. Traces of folds and minimal browning. With old accession no. 481 in ink.‎

‎Napoleon, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Letter signed "Napo". Erfurt, 1. X. 1808.‎

‎4to. ½ p. on bifolium. To the archchancellor Jean-Jacques-Régis de Cambacérès, asking him to draft a birth certificate for his niece Louise Julie Caroline, the youngest daughter of Joachim Murat, King of Naples, and Napoleon's youngest sister Caroline in accordance with the statute of the imperial family: "Nous désirons qu'assisté du Secrétaire de l'État de la famille Impériale vous fassiez dresser un acte constatant la naissance de la Princesse Louise Julie Caroline, quatrième enfant de notre Soeur la Reine de Naples. Vous vous conformerez, pour ce qui concerne la désignation des témoins, à ce qui est prescrit par l'article 19". - Louise Julie Caroline (1805-89) was born before the decree of the statute of the Imperial family on 30 March 1806, which explains the necessity for a new birth certificate and the delay. - The letter was written during the Congress of Erfurt, a meeting between Napoleon and Alexander I of Russia that lasted from 27 September to 14 October in the then-French city and was supposed to reaffirm the French-Russian alliance that had been forged in the Treaties of Tilsit in July 1807. Napoleon was eager to impress his imperial guest and spared no expenses, hosting lavish receptions, hunting parties, and theatre performances. On the occasion of the Congress, Napoleon received Goethe on 2 October 1808, and Niccolò Paganini performed for the two emperors. - In the hand of Napoleon's private secretary Claude-François Méneval.

‎Napoleon, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Letter signed ("Napoleon"). Paris, 18. II. 1812.‎

‎Folio. 2 pp. A letter to Rear Admiral Count Batte instructing him how to move a part of the flotilla from Boulogne-sur-Mer to Cherbourg. - Napoléon informs Count Batte about his intention to move 9 prams, 4 bombers and 40 canon shallops of the new type without delay from Boulogne to Cherbourg. The division will be equipped with the 12th and 14th garrison of the flotilla and on its arrival at Cherbourg it will remain without any special commander. As the simultaneous departure of such a number of ships would cause inconveniences, Napoléons asks Count Batte to organize the departure in sections of 3, 6 or 9 ships and to send off such a number one after the other as the circumstances will allow him to. Napoléon is convinced that he has to facilitate the passage. He asks Count Batte not to leave Boulogne until at least half of the totality of the ships will have appeared and his activities will be confirmed to him. Napoléon tells Count Batte to make sure not to miss any occasion to increase the departure of sections of the flotilla taking into consideration that the season is still very favourable for this movement and that any delay could cause an infinite retardation of success. Napoléon informs Count Batte that upon his arrival at Cherbourg the Ministry of the Navy will address him with instructions concerning the task that he has to fulfill and concerning the ultimate destination of this important part of the flotilla. Napoléon ends his letter by pleading to god to keep Rear Admiral Count Batte in good health. - Some tiny holes (not touching the signature).‎

‎Napoléon I, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Autograph letter (fragment). N. p., [after 22 Dec. 1793].‎

‎4to. ¾ p. Final page of the broullion of a letter to an unidentified recipient, possibly to M. Perrier, director of the arsenal of Marseille, or Sucy, commissaire des guerres. The letter, which contained extensive instructions on the deployment of artillery, was obviously written at the end of 1793 or in early 1794, immediately after the Fall of Toulon, when the Republicans won an early victory over a Royalist rebellion and Napoleon was "inspecteur des côtes". The fragment preserved here begins with the words "Le fondeur est", which are struck out, then continues: "Roux, fondeur, ést venu me demander que l'on fixe le prix de sa journée. La municipalité doit fixer le maximum sur cet objet, comme sur tant d'autres. Je crois qu'il vaut mieux payer tant par quintal de balles que par jours. Vous pouvez, pour cela, faire fixer la journée qui doit toujours être l'élément de toutes les mesures". - Lower left corner torn off (not touching text); some brownstaining, otherwise a perfect sheet. Once in the collection of André de Coppet (1892-1953), now stored at the Firestone Library, Princeton. J. Arnna, Pages de l’épopée impériale (no. 6, reproduced on pl. XIV). Correspondance générale I, p. 155f., no. 130.‎

‎Napoléon I, Emperor of the French (1769-1821).‎

‎Draft for a letter with several autograph corrections. Paris, 20 ventôse 13 (March 11, 1805).‎

‎4to. ½ p. Rare draft for a letter to his Minister of Finances, Charles Gaudin (1756-1841), asking for more information about aid to the veterans of Piedmont as they would soon be his subjects in the newly created Kingdom of Italy: "Monsieur Gaudin, je vous renvoie vos états sur les biens des camps de vétérans en Piémont. Je désire que vous me fassiez un rapport d'une page, qui me fasse connaitre 'la loi a affecté' la quotité des biens que la loi a affectés aux camps de vétérans dans la 27è division militaire, combien il y en a déjà de désignées pour ce service et ce qu'il y manque" [Mister Gaudin, I return your budget of the assets of the veterans' camps in Piedmont to you. I want you to compile a one page report for me that informs me 'the law has affected' the share of the assets that the law has affected in the veterans' camps of the 27th military division, how many have already been appointed for this service and what it lacks"]. - Because of the many corrections the letter was never signed or sent. Every line has been partly crossed out or modified by the Emperor. - Napoleon's coronation as Emperor of the French had only taken place three months prior at which occasion the deputies of the Italian Republic officially offered the crown of Italy to him. On March 17, 1805 the political transformation of the Italian Republic to the Kingdom of Italy (1805-1814) was put into effect. The letter to Charles Gaudin relates to this process as Napoleon wanted to be fully informed about the financial obligations to the veterans of Piedmont, his new subjects.‎

‎Eigenh. Brief mit U. ("Napoléon [Jérôme]"). Prangins, 10. X. o. J.‎

‎1 S. 8vo. Auf Briefpapier mit blindgepr. Monogramm. An den Naturwissenschaftler und demokratischen Politiker Karl Vogt (1817-95), den Karl Marx 1860 in seiner Schrift "Herr Vogt" beschuldigte, bezahlter Agent Kaiser Napoléons III. gewesen zu sein: "Mon cher Monsieur Vogt, je reçois votre lettre pour M. Châtelain, malgré mon peu d'influence sur les ministres, je le recommanderai, j'avoir le lettre à mon sécretaire à Paris pour qu'il la remettre lui même [...]. - Nach der Machtübernahme seines Cousins Napoleon III. wurde der "Prinz Napoléon" genannte Politiker General des französischen Heers. 1859 erwarb er am Genfer See die Domäne La Bergerie in Prangins (Schweiz), die bereits bis 1827 seinem Onkel Joseph Bonaparte, dem älteren Bruder Napoleons I., als Zubehör zu dessen Exilsitz Schloss Prangins gehört hatte. Ab 1862 ließ er sich dort die prachtvolle "Villa de Prangins" errichten, die er jedoch 1870 wieder veräußerte, woraufhin er sich auf einem verbliebenen Teil des Guts eine neue, bescheidenere Villa "La Bergerie de Prangins" erbauen ließ; diese diente ihm und seinen Nachfahren ab 1886 als Exilsitz.‎

Mon sentiment est qu'on ne peut en avoir qu'une. Républicain on ne peut saluer qu'avec respect la mémoire de ce milicien de la liberté […] Quant à Crispi sur lequel vous m'interrogez aussi c'est l'antipode de Garibaldi [...] Il n'a pas fait la triple alliance, ce renouvellement de la sainte alliance, cette croisade des rois contre les peuples: elle était faite par d' autres que lui lorsqu'il est arrivé au pouvoir. Mais il a été le digne héritier des auteurs de ce pacte auquel il a plus que tout autre contribué à donner son maximum d'intensité [...] Les trois nations qui bordent la Méditerannée: l'Italie, la France, et l'Espagne sont sœurs, en dépit de tous les calculs égoïstes de la réaction Européene; et elles ont encore à jouer pour la défense des libertés générales un role [!] contre lequel tous les Crispi et les Mobilant ne sauraient prévaloir [...]". - On stationery with printed letterhead; fol. 2 with small label, ms. number and monogram stamp "LS".‎
