[83] "He was discovered by his always drinking a bottle of the best wine, which so ill corresponded with his dress and apparent poverty, that it excited a suspicion amongst some of the spies, and he was arrested, searched, and his papers taken from him."--NAPOLEON, _Voice, &c._, vol. ii., p. 119. [84] See "Report concerning Kolli's Plan for liberating Ferdinand, King of Spain," Annual Register, vol. lii., p. 497. [85] Savary, tom. iii., part i., p. 53. [86] "The Emperor recalled Massena, who was quite exhausted by fatigue, and unable to bestow that attention to his troops which was necessary for restoring them to their former state of efficiency; and he selected for his successor in the command Marshal Marmont, the Governor of Illyria."--SAVARY, tom. iii., part i., p. 54.

CHAPTER LV. _Retrospect of the causes leading to the Rupture with Russia--originate in the Treaty of Tilsit--Russia's alleged Reasons of Complaint--Arguments of Napoleon's Counsellors against War with Russia--Fouché is against the War--Presents a Memorial to Napoleon upon the Subject--His Answer--Napoleon's Views in favour of the War, as urged to his various Advisers._ [Sidenote: RUPTURE WITH RUSSIA.] We are now approaching the verge of that fated year, when Fortune, hitherto unwearied in her partiality towards Napoleon, turned first upon himself, personally, a clouded and stormy aspect.
