At the end of three or four months, the police of M. De Laporte gave notice, that nothing more was to be dreaded from that sort of plot against the King's life ; that the plan was entirely changed ; and that all future attempts would be directed as much against the throne, as against the person of the sovereign. * * The details which Madame Campan gives above, add weight to the various pieces of information she took pains to collect respecting the MARIE ANTOINETTE. 139 There are others besides ...myself, who know that, about this time, one of the things about which the Queen most desired to be satisfied, was the opinion of the famous Pitt. She would sometimes say to me : " I never pronounce the name of Pitt, but I feel death at my shoulder, (I repeat here h'er very expressions. ) That man is the mortal enemy of France ; and he takes a dread- ful revenge for the impolitic support given by the cabinet of Versailles to the American insurgents. He wishes, by our des- truction, to guarantee the maritime power of his country for ever, against the efforts made by the King to improve his marine power, and their happy results during the last war.
