The letter was written in French • Brienne, 15th July, My dear uncle :—I write to inform you that my dear father stopped at Brienne, on his Way through; he was going to Paris to take Marianne (E.lete) to 'St. CO., and for the recovery of his health.

With regard to the profession winch hevefeis, you know that the Church - is the one which he first fixed upon. He continued in this mind till to-day, when he resol ved to serve the king. He is very wrong in this, in many respects. In the first place, as my dear father observes, he has not sufficient courage to encounter the dangers of a combat—his delicate health •will not permit him to undergo the hard ships of a campaign—and my brother's notions of milimoy profession are very much those of a gar rison life.
