A VOICE FROM ST. HELENA., ON RUSSIA. AND TURKEY. [Napoleon in Conversation with O'Meara, May 27, 1817.] " In the co n rue of a few years Russia will hsvo Constantinople, part of Turkey, and all, Greece. This I hold to be ns ccrta'n ns if it had already taken place. Almost all the cajoling and flattery which Alexander practised towards me, was to gain my consent to cftcct ihii object, I would nof. coni ent, foreseeing that the equilibrium of Kuropo w iuld be destroyed. In the natural course of things, in a few Yenrs Turkey must tall to Ruisia. Tho power* it hod l<l injure, and who could oppose i', are England, France, Prussia, and Au*< ma. Now, as lo Austria, it irill be vory ca»y for Russia lo engage her assistance by giving her ScrTiA and other provinces bordoring upon tho Austiian dominion's, reaching near to Constant tinoplc. The only hypothesis that France ancl England may ever be allied with sincerity will be in order to prevent this. But even iliii alliance would not avail.

Above all the other powert, Ruisia is the most to be feared, enpecially by you the English. All this I foresaw — and I wanted to citnblish a barrier nqaiiist those barbananf by re-rstab-Ihhing the kingdom of Poland, and putting Pomato«ski|At the head of it as King, but your imbeciles o( Ministers would not consent. A hundred years hence I shall bo praised, and Europe, especially England, will lament that I did n»t succeed. When they sco the finest countries in Europe overrun, and a prey to those northern barbarians, they will say, " Napoleon was right,"
