From the great extent and variety of objects con¬ tained in the London Museum, the Proprietor finds it utterly impossible to publish the whole of the Auction Catalogue, with that descriptive accuracy which the subject requires, in time for the requisite circulation previous to the commencement of the sale; he is therefore under the necessity of circulat¬ ing it in Parts (each Part containing Six Days Sale), which will be published with all possible dispatch, until the whole is complete. In submitting the whole of this valuable Collection to the hammer, without the smallest reserve or pur¬ chasing in, either directly or indirectly, Mr. Bullock trusts to the liberality of the Public, and confidently expects to receive a fair remuneration for the articles which now compose the London Museum ; a Collec¬ tion, which is the result of Thirty Years unremitting attention, under the auspices of the most scientific characters, not only in this country, but in various other parts of the world; and which has been formed at an expense considerably exceeding 30 , 000 /. As many of the articles of Natural History in this Museum have been collected in several places, and under a variety of circumstances, by Mr. Bullock himself, he trusts that his knowledge of many par¬ ticulars, which may add interest or value to the arti¬ cles themselves, will be a sufficient apology (if any 4 be necessary for the manner in which a man chooses to dispose of his own property) for his appearing before the Public in the new character of an Auc¬ tioneer: a character which he hopes to convince those who may do him the honour of attending the sale, he has not assumed from any unworthy pecuniary motive, but from a proper desire to apprize the bid¬ der of the actual circumstances connected with the article he may wish to buy, that he may be fairly and fully in possession of its nature and character. The duration of the sale can at present be only a matter of conjecture: it will probably not extend to more than twenty days, as it is deemed advisable, for the benefit of the Naturalist and curious Col¬ lector, that some of the large cases containing whole Families of one Genus , should not be separated, but that the fine and unique perfect Genera of Birds of Paradise, Humming Birds, Echini, Sic. &c. should be offered for sale unbroken, so as to ensure to Science and Art, the benefit of their formation accord¬ ing to their present arrangement. Any catalogue of a sale so various and complicated as this, must be necessarily incomplete. A catalogue must rather lead the eye to the article than explain it in detail; but from the nature of even one branch of this collection, the Ornithological department, a detail is utterly impossible within the limits of any printed statement intended for general perusal. The almost exclusive command of the seas, during a pro¬ tracted war, successively filled this country from every part of the world with the most novel and extraordinary specimens in this branch of Natural V History, which generally centred in this Museum, and formed an important part of its extensive attrac¬ tions. There are many thousands of birds unknown (chiefly owing to what we have already said of the maritime nature of the late war) to continental Natu¬ ralists, and for which, names are not to be found in the Linnzean classification. The Proprietor is aware of what he must suffer from the impossibility of de¬ scribing in detail a very large part of this branch of his collection; but as he repeats his fixed deter¬ mination to sell without reserve, he relies that the liberality of the lovers of Natural History, who must be aware of the value of particular articles in their branch of study, which he cannot describe as they deserve, will give him that assistance on this occasion to which they may think his labours entitle him, and his collection deserves: he neither asks nor expects more. The Proprietor, as they must see, availed him¬ self of the great opportunities his country possessed during the late war of enriching this branch of his collection at a great expense. He now confidently relies that the result of his labours will not prove an eventual bar to the laudable enterprise of future Collectors. *** Ladies and Gentlemen who may not have an oppor¬ tunity of attending the sale, and who may desire to purchase particular articles, may have their commissions faithfully and diligently executed, on application to Mr. Bullock at the Museum, previous to the Sale. b CONDITIONS OF SALE.

Peace herself, and Minerva attend them. On the left of the picture a cur¬ tain, drawn aside, displays the temple of Janus, whence the consular authority drives Discord Envy, and Pride. The Genius of France with a lighted torch destroys even the appearance of her triumphs. The Arts re-appear, Mer¬ cury proceeds to announce peace to Europe. At the sound of the proclamation the people give themselves up to joy. The smoke of cannon, which rises above the walls, evinces the public gratulation.” 74 The Entrance of the First Consul into Lyons, for •* SECOND DAY. IS the purpose of instituting the Cisalpine Consu¬ late The French inscription is as follows:—“The peace-making hero is received at the gates of Lyons, and as he approaches to pass under the triumphal arch of Septimus Severus, the town of Lyons expresses her gratitude by the deputies of the Cisalpine consulship. The hero is seated in a car conducted by Minerva, who is constantly attended by Victory.” 75 The First Consul reinstating Religion; a crayon drawing, from which a large picture was executed for the Louvre 76 The Capture of Ulm ; crayon The following is the translation of the original inscription still on it:—“ Preceded by the wise Minerva, Napoleon points to Vienna as the object of his wishes. The Imperial Eagle as yet holds the menacing thunder. The towns of Bavaria follow with enthusiasm the car of the conqueror. Fame publishes the glory of this incomparable hero. Europe herself is seized with astonish¬ ment. The city of Ulm delivers her keys to Mer¬ cury, the emblem of the Emperor’s promptitude and vigilance.” ^ 77 The Genius of France conducting the Works ol Ancient Art and the Trophies of recent Con¬ quest to the city of Paris—painted by Collet It is thus described in the inscription:—“ The Genius of France, holding in one hand the thun¬ der, and presenting with the other the symbol of Peace, is raised on a military scaffold by fourteen Fames, who celebrate at once the triumphs of each army. Time bears to Immortality the names of those heroes who died on the field of honour. Beneath is the vessel of state laden with trophies from Italy.

The inhabitants, of all ages and of both sexes, run in crowds before their deliverer, and through the mediation of their magistrates, solicit him to pro¬ tect their laws. ‘ I have broken your chains,’ said the hero, * and I will defend your constitution with the sword’.” 80 Buonaparte visiting the Field of Eylau after the Battle; a fine crayon drawing, framed aud glazed 81 Meeting of the Emperors of France and Russia on the raft at Tilsit; a fine picture, containing Por¬ traits of the most celebrated persons in the French and Russian armies: painted on the spot for Napoleon, by Goutherot 82 Buonaparte distributing the Prizes to the Artists of France, in the Sculpture Gallery of the Louvre In this very exquisite picture the mind is re¬ claimed from the contemplation of slaughter and desolation, and is invited to a scene, in which our nobler faculties receive their appropriate homage. This work is executed by Mons. Boilly; contains faithful Portraits of the court of Napoleon, as well as of the principal artists of France : it has never been engraved. 83 Whole length Portrait, as large as life, of Jose¬ phine, first Empress of France ; by Rol Lefevre, painted for the Ex-King of Spain, whence it was brought by an English officer 84 Buonaparte returning from Madrid; ditto, Resting after giving Peace to Spain; a pair of crayon paintings, framed and glazed ,/ A . p SECOND DAY. 15 // //> /. // 85 Birth of the King of Rome The painter has represented the Infant lying upon a couch, under a transparent veil. The shield is supported by a figure of Fame, and on one side of it are the Graces, the principal of whom is Maria Louisa, and the other two are upholding the imperial crown and sceptre. On the other side of the shield is Buonaparte, in the attire of Mars. Over the couch is Mercury, flying towards Heaven, bearing a shield, on which are inscribed the initials of this celebrated Infant. It hears this inscription: “ The wishes of this august pair, and those of all France, are accom¬ plished : already has Mars promised valour to this Infant, and the Graces present to him the crown and sceptre.” P 86 The Great Picture of the Battle of the Moskvva, painted on the spot by Franque, who accom¬ panied the army for the purpose. Napoleon on horseback, as large as life, is addressing the army on the commencement of that dreadful conflict: “ Soldiers, behold the sun of Auster- litz!” In this picture are portraits of Murat, .yc. Ney, Berthier, Ruslar, &c., as large as nature. 87 A magnificent Case of Arms, containing a Rifle- barrelled Gun, a pair of Duelling Pistols, and a pair of Pocket Pistols. They were made at the celebrated Imperial manufactory at Versailles, and were presented by Buonaparte to Marshal Brune, from whose widow' they were recently purchased. The price paid for them by Napo¬ leon w r as 26,500 francs. But even that immense sum will not be considered as exorbitant by those who may have the opportunity of inspect¬ ing them. The workmanship is elaborate and ingenious • the materials of decoration are extremely costly, and the taste which prevades the whole, evinces a cultivated, as well as a fertile // i />* 4 />/) J? 16 SECOND DAY. 43 44 jrr cf / / 42 /2 / // // ys' y y /s yy mind. The gun in particular is enriched with pure gold, wrought into different colours, and exhibiting an excellence of workmanship that surpasses even the value of the metal. The barrels of them all deserve much admiration, from the beautiful and varying tints of green and blue which they display, and which have been produced by the peculiarly high tempera¬ ture of the steel. These productions will be regarded by British artizans with peculiar inte¬ rest, for they are considered to be without equal in Europe. His Royal Highness the Prince Regent is known to possess the finest collection of guns that ever was formed, but he has not any which can be placed in competition with these. ^ 88 A Case containing the Double-barrelled Fowl¬ ing Piece, with which Napoleon pursued the amusement of shooting during the last six years of his imperialism. This tasteful and his finished Fowling Piece is ornamented and silver, in various devices of classic and sporting allusion. It was made by Lepage, the gun-maker to the Emperor, and bears the initial N. on the gold between the barrel. /? 89 A small Case containing a pair of beautiful Pis¬ tols, manufactured for the King of Rome, by Lepage. They are superbly mounted in gold, and ornamented with every appropriate decora¬ tion that taste and fancy could suggest, and in¬ genuity could execute ; the Imperial Eagle, the Bees, and the N. are not forgotten. The whole apparatus is complete. The Case itself justly deserves notice: it is formed of a curious wood, and is beautifully inlaid with pearl. The centre piece represents the Centaur teaching the young Achilles to shoot. , ^ * t / 0 y y S J ft y S / , 4 > w. /> s> ty -? ?< ^^sriS' -es SetS-SsssUS* '•>/ /// £,f4yj/Ja^/e.'

Lot 1. TO BE SOLD PRECISELY AT ONE O’CLOCK ON The celebrated and highly curious MILITARY CARRIAGE of the Ex-Emperor of France, in which he made the Campaign of Russia, and which was captured, with the whole of his valuable property, on the evening of the Battle of Waterloo, and sent, with the officer who took it, by Marshal Blucher, to the Prince Regent, from whom it was purchased by its present pro¬ prietor for the sum of three thousand guineas, independent of the diamonds, diamond snuff-box, and other valuables. The interest excited by the exhibition of these arti¬ cles was perhaps never exceeded in these king¬ doms : nearly eight hundred thousand persons paid for admission to examine them, although it has only been exhibited in the large provincial towns of England and Scotland. In Ireland it has only visited Dublin, and no place whatever in Wales. As a speculation for America, it could not fail to answer the purpose of a public exhibition. 160 TWENTY-SIXTH DAY. //* | /> /y; 4 4 4 \/<> 4-j 4 I / / 3 / 3 4 3 / 49 49 /4- / It remains still in precisely the same state it was left by Napoleon, having never received or want¬ ed the least repair.

The whole of the valuable property taken with the Carriage, and forming with it the exhibition, will be offered in one lot, but should no pur¬ chaser appear, it will then be divided as follows: LOT 1 The Carriage'"'"^ ' 2 Iron Bedstead, in which the Emperor slept when in camp 3 Bed of fine Merino wool, in leather case, used with the bedstead, and in the carriage 4 Ditto, ditto 5 The celebrated Surtout worn in the Russian cam¬ paign, made of grey cloth, lined in the sleeves and body with sable 6 A wadded Silk Under-waistcoat, worn with the above 1 A Travelling Cap, of blue velvet, bordered with rich fur 8 Suit of the rich Green-and-gold Liveries worn by the domestics of Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo 9 Ditto, ditto 10 Hat, and Waistcoat, of ditto ^ 11 Saddle-cloth, and Pistol-holsters, of Joseph Buo¬ naparte, taken at Vittoria — 12 Lot of Buckles, and other ornaments, from the Imperial harness 13 Complete Uniform of the Colonel of Lancers, worn by the Son of Louis Buonaparte, when nine years old TWENTY-SIXTH DAY. 161 J l A 2 14 An Opera-glass, used by Napoleon, and pre¬ sented by him to the signal officer at Elba 15 Two foreign Orders of Honour, taken at Water¬ loo 16 Two ditto J2 / *** Every thing that follows was taken in the car¬ riage, and was once the property of the Prince Regent; and most of the articles arc engraved or chased with the arms, crest, and cypher of the Emperor / c> 17 The highly curious Toilette-box, fitted up under the inspection of Maria Louisa, and presented by her to the Emperor on his departure for Russia.
