DEATH OF JOSEPH BONApARTE..
The regent intelligence of the death of Joseph Biwa,

ing biographical sketch in the New York Express
Joseph Bonaparte was born at Ajaccio, in the Island
of Corsica, January rth, 1768, and removed with big
family to France is 1793. The next year he msOried
Mademoiselle Clary, sister to Bernadotte. About this
time be was appointed by his brother Napoleon a COM:
missury in the army ; and by the republic, in 17 9 7.
Ambasoder to Rome, where he acquitted himself grith
honor and ability On his return to Faris, ha was
chosen a deputy to the oelebtated council Of five hue ,
died, and secretary to that body. After the ;es °lib
tion of the 18th Brumarie, his brother named bisn
Counsellor of State, and Minister Plenipotentiary°
negotiate a treaty of amity and commerce withrhethla:
ttd States. He signed the treaty of Luneville in 1901,
and soon after concluded a peace with Great 1 3 rileinr
at A miens. He was nominated President of the Sea,
ate by the Emperor, and honored with the lid, of
prince and grand elector of the empire. This, how
ever, was but the prelude to further advaagement-Aus
was raised to the rank of general and cum mander-in
hief of the army at Naples, and lastly named lioness,
ant and general of that kingdom, which he bad love s
(led at the head of g powerful army. On the latll of
February, 1809, Kingierdinand left Naples for Sicily,
and the nest dayke pa t tered fhe city and took posses
sion of the place . Spun aftegavgds he was proclairnert
King of Naples, and formally inise4 to that dignity !
sov-reign of the kingdom of Illoptes, be very soon
became subservient to the nintriitious views and crafty
policy of his brother Nopoleca. He suppressed the

preferring a voluptuous and ostentation* life k b : i t

the people complained rather of his prodigality area:
penditure, and the burden of his taxation, than his vi l '

he resided as an American citizen in tbe State of
re Ifply
Jersey, whe be acquired the esteem of 4ip inkahr '
tants of that State. Tie was generous, charitable and
humane, of a gay disposition, humorous and lively in
his conversation, and courteous and affable to ell. Bo
tween him and Ili:brother Nepolcen there did not ex:
id much fraternal itfil•ction. Of this fact thio ekt•
quently speaks Scott, in alluding to his eleratjne oft the
throne of Spaih:
"That ruthless !Feder beckoned imm his twits •

And pale his temples with the crown of Spam,.
While trumpets rang and heralds cried Castile.
Not that he lored him—sud in no ertates well, -
Scarce in his own.ere enjoyed that sullen better,.
Yet round that throne he bade his warriors wheel,
That the poor puppet might pet I:oum his part„
