the officers of the Bellerophon. 
After descending the ladder into 
the barge he pulled off his hat to 
them again. Lord Keith received 
in the ‘barge the following per- 
sonages :— . 
Buonaparte, 
~ General Bertrand and Madame 
Bertrand, with their children. 
- CountandCountess Montholon, 
and child. 
Count Lascasas. 
General Gorgaud. 
Nine men and three women 
servants, 
Buonaparte’s surgeon refused 
to accompany him; upon which 
the surgeon of the Bellerophon 
offered.to supply his place. 
Buonaparte was this day dress- 
ed in acocked hat much worn, 
witha tri-coloured cockade; his 
coat was buttoned close round 
him, a plain green one with a red 
collar; he had three orders, two 
crosses, and ‘a large silver star, 
with the inscription Honneur et 
Paitrie ; white breeches, silk stock- 
ings, gold buckles, 
* Savary and Lallemand were left 
behind in the Bellerophon. 
Savary seemed in great dread 
of being given up to the French 
government, repeatedly asserting 
that the honour of England would 
not allow them to be landed again 
on the shores of France. 
- About twelve o’clock the Ton- 
nant’s barge reached the Nor- 
thumberland. Bertrand stepped 
first upon deck, Buonaparte next, 
mounting the side of the ship with 
the activity of a seaman. The 
marines were drawn out and re- 
ceived him, but merely as a gene- 
ral, presenting arms to him. He 
pulled off his hat. As soon as he 
was upon deck, he said to sir 
ANNUAL REGISTER, 1815. 
George Cockburn—** Je suis 2'vos 
ordres.”” He bowed to lord Low- 
ther and Mr. Lyttleton, who were 
near the admiral, and spoke to 
them a few words, to which they 
replied. To an officer, he said, 
«‘ Dans quel corps servez vous 2” 
(In what corps do you serve ?) 
The officer replied, “in the ar- 
tillery.”?. Buonaparte immediately 
rejoined—* Je sors de cette service 
mot-meme.”—(1 was originally in 
that service myself.) After taking 
leave of the officers who had ac- 
companied him from the Bellero- 
phon, and embracing the nephew 
of Josephine, who was not going 
to St. Helena, he went into the 
after cabin, where, besides his 
principal companions, were ase 
sembled lord Keith, sir G. Cock- 
burn, lord Lowther, the Hon. 
Mr. Lyttleton, &c. 
Bertrand.—“ I never gave in 
my adhesion to Louis the 18th. 
It is therefore palpably unjust to 
proscribe me. However, L shall 
return ina year or two to super- 
intend the education of my chil- 
dren.” 
Madame Bertrand appeared 
much distressed; said she was 
obliged to leave Paris in a hurry, 
withoutclothes, or any necessary. 
She lived in the house now occue 
pied by the duke de Berri. She 
spoke mostflatteringly of herhus- 
band ; said the emperor was too 
great a man to be depressed by 
circumstances, and concluded by 
expressing a wish for some Paris 
papers. 
Count Montholon spoke of the 
improvements made by Buona- 
parte in Paris; alluded to his 
bilious complaint, which required 
much exercise.
