Fouche had said one day that if the throne ever became vacant, which with God's help should never be, he would take measures to get as much power into his hands as possible. The Emperor MfiNEVAL'S MEMOIRS OF NAPOLEON I. 413 answered this remark with some words which were remembered: " You would do well. It would be your ripht." Napoleon, however, thought it right to have the person in whose possession these letters were found — he was a chamberlain to King Joachim — arrested; and he was confine...d for three months in the prison at Vincennes. On leaving prison this officer was given the choice of returning to Naples or of staying in France, but not in Paris. He retired to an estate which he owned in Poitou, and the famous letters were deposited in the Imperial Archives. These circumstances, and other reasons for discontent, irritated the King of Naples. His bad temper broke out when he was ordered to send a contingent of Neapolitan troops to join the French army. From the month of August of this year, 181 1, the signs of a misunderstanding with Russia, and the hidden prepar- ations for war which were beginning to be made by this power, obliged the Emperor to increase the garrison at Dantzig, and to put the French army on a larger footing.
