Letter from Count Bertrand to the Governor, containing the Grievances of Longwood* Longwoody SOt/i Sepiember, 1817. Governor,— I have made known to the empe- ror, that you did me the honour to come to me the day before yesterday, (Sunday,) that you told me some anxieties had been excited in you re- specting his ill healthy and that as this was attri- buted to want... of exercise, why did he not ride out on horseback ?
