French Royalty.
THE UPS AND DOW.NS OF EIGHTEEN FB-ENCIII
MONARCHS.
I. ‘
"lJneasy lies the head that wear a crown,
is the sentiment put into the naouth of
Henry IV., proud _Bolingbroke, -who i.L. his
own career as usurper, and ir the murder
of his predecessor, helped to point moral.
The recent; disposition of Napoleon IIL;
and the vicissitudes of his career, call to
'mind some,historical recollections, which if
not very instructive in this age of Republi-
canis, are at least interesting. French
.history is specially replete with the .misfor-.
tunes.ofroyalty. .
Lodis Philippe, the royal predecessor of
Louis Napoleon, began V fleeing for his life
from the Republicans of 1780. and ended
by fleeing before the Republicans of '1848.
His early exie' rience had taught him to put
no faith in die tender_naercies of an excited
people, with whom enthusiasm might easily
run filth fanaticism.
Charles X. a true Bourbon of the direct
line, who had learned no good nor forgotton
,
any evil in the exile and adversity of his
races insisted on ruling as of Divine right.
The ordiwances against the press and the
advice of the Polignace brought the revolu-
tion of 1E330 and the three days of July
upon Paris, and Charles X. was again an
exile. .
Napoleon, the man of destiny and favorite
of fortune, could only he hurled from his
ride of place by the combined power of all
the kings.—He abdicated once, broke faith,
was again deposed, and ended his eareer at
St: Helena. Prometheus bound to the rock,
devoured by ceaseless regrets and memories.
Louis XVI. perished eby the guillotines
A helpless, harmless man, upon whose
-unhappy head the sins of his ancestors were
visited.
Louis XVII., a baby king, a mere legi-
t
, tirratist phantom ,of royalty, died in the
temple from privation and neglect. '.
Louis XV. le Desire, a minister of pro-
fligacy, the friend of Pompadour and Da -
harry, the proprietor of Le Pare aux. Cerfs,
died,a'king and in his bed, but with none
to dose his eyes, for every attendance Was
away from the "dying couch, either on plea-
sure or to pay court to the rising San.
Henry IV., the great king, the French-
eaaan's royal ideal, lived a youth of court-
eous captivity, and after a manhood ot war,
attained his crown by abjuring his reiigious
views, and died by the knife of Ravaillac
in 1610. .
•Charles XI., 'the abbettor of St. Bartho-
lomew's Day massacre, - died of disease of
body and mind, brought on by,remorse for
the horrid crime.
Henry III., at profligate and unprinciple
ruler, was assassinated by Jacques Clenien,
a Doneinician monk, in 1789, and . masses
were offered in church for the assassin. _
Henry .II., a brave and :ithle prince to
whom was owing the annexation of prince,
'Verelunrand Tcul, with the adjoining cdun-
try, ' as the prices' of his alliance with Brad-
, .
denburg (now Prussia) against Charles V.
of leitstria Was killed by the stroke of a
lance in the eye in 15,59.
Francis I., the last of the kings of chi-
valry, fell beforeithe astute policy and vast
power of Charles Y., against whose combi-
nations of -Spanisketefeed German

piety and crusades gainst the 'Moslem, was

king persisting in, his conversion of the
J_Aloors, was carried off by plague at Tunie.
Charles the Fat, Louis W., and another
