18 L.S. "Napol", "Nap" or "NP", and one unsigned letter, 13 January-12 December 1810, to Archchancellor
CAMBACÉRÈS| most of the letters are written by Méneval, and by Mounier (1), Duroc (1), Fain (1)| 12 pages and 10 half pages in-4. [560-578, 582-583]
Paris January 13. "My Cousin, my minister of Cults [Bigot de Préameneu] will bring you answers to several questions I have proposed to a small council of the clergy. He wishes to have "your observations on the answers, wishing to assure me if they are in conformity with the principles of the Gallican Church, the School of Paris and the Parliaments"...
Paris January 21. "My Cousin, I am sending you the state of the young men from the departments of Belgium whom it is proposed that I appoint as auditors.
Take information on their account, and make me a particular report of it. By naming these young people auditors, I have two goals: first, to attach the Belgians to the Government, and not to let them consider themselves as foreigners to the Empire| and second, to make people enter the places who, by their fortune, will be able to support their rank"...
Paris, March 2. On the subject of the marriage of his officer Tascherwith the princess of Leyen.
Compiegne March 27 (unsigned), about a decree of amnesty.
Compiegne April 10. On the subject of a "project of organization of the new provinces united to France. [...] The territorial division seems to me to be good, but it is necessary to designate the sub-prefectures and the cantons, to decide from which
Court of Appeal the country will come back, or if it is necessary to create a new one, to decide the number of courts, the number of deputies to the Legislative Body, to organize the Colleges, to decide on the Classes and all that is within the competence of the navy, finally to regulate all the parts of the administration. [...] It will be necessary to speak about ecclesiastical affairs, to regulate the diocese or consistory to which the various churches will belong"...
Rouen, May 31. "My Cousin, I find in a newspaper a regulation on the pensions of the University, which is a real law, and in which the Grand Master [Fontanes] has exceeded his powers, since his decree tends to charge the Public Treasury with immense and arbitrary expenses. How can the members of the University professing in 1791 be entitled to pensions? And how can the University, which did not exist then, interfere in this? [...] it seems to me that the University is going too far. Instruct the ministers of state to draw up a draft decree to prevent such abuses in the future"...
Saint-Cloud June 14. On the University: "Let me know if the decision of the Grand Master is in conformity with my decrees| because if it deviated from them, the
Grand Master would impose on the citizens an increase which he would not be in the right to impose"...
Saint-Cloud June 24. "My Cousin, it is very important to pass the law regulating the conditions of the armistice on Tuesday in the Council. It is ridiculous to accustom the people to play with forgeries and with resistance to armed force. I have never heard of forgiving these two offenses. If we did it in the year 10, we did it wrong. Besides, it was a renewal of government, which is a very different circumstance. The hypothesis of year 10 cannot come back| but the circumstances that motivate the amnesty will recur every 5 or 10 years, for marriages, births, etc. It is thus necessary that the regulation be drafted with great severity, by making the decree say only what it says, & not what it does not say"...
Saint-Cloud July 3. About the financial conditions of the marriage of count Tascher with the princess of Leyen, and the endowment of a county...
Rambouillet July 12. "My Cousin, the Intendant gal of the Domaine Extraordre reports to me that if the holders of shares are not given their shares, it is the fault of the Council of the seal which does not make their expeditions.
Have them made within the week"...
Rambouillet July 17. He charged his cousin with "drawing up a draft senatus-consult for the reunion of Holland, including the division of the departments, the number of deputies to be appointed, the different colleges, the designation of the senatorial districts, the principles of the organization of justice, and all that is within the competence of a senatus-consult"... - "My intention is to name next Sunday one hundred auditors, the old ones being all placed"...
Saint-Cloud July 20. "My cousin, I beg you to consider and bring me this evening the minute of the act which I must do to summon the king of Holland [Louis Bonparte] as a French prince to return to the territory of the Empire under the titles of the family statute. I also beg you to let me know in what situation the queen of Holland and her children are, who according to the terms of article 4 are not susceptible of an apanage since they are not sons of the Emperor, and the procedure to follow
