The servant answered lie was iu tied unwell. and could not lie disuurteel. The gen tleman iastautly said he most see and if his dour was not ()period he wouhl break it open. The ere sena immediately went into the bell-rooms' and told the General a person wished to •peak to lii ii. The General told her to skew hint ie, if he would .rx cuse his being in bed. The gentleman went in and spoke a few words to the General in Fretucle which the servant did not understand, but she 'tetra that it did not seem to excite any alarm in the General.

They utiswerell it was a case of high treasoil, and that they were meting fur the King. Slue told them at all events they had no right to treat him thus. They then chugged him, bleedisig profusely, to wards a coach standing at the dour. Terrified and confuted, lie called on the servant girl not to aban don him, and by this time a mob being collected round, the officers were anxious to force him into the coach without loss of time ; seeing that a con eidereble interest had been excited among the by standrre, a report was given out that he was insane, and they were conveyiiig him to a toad-house. The officers then redoubled their exertions, and dragged him towards the couch, into which they pushed him. lie fell down in the coach, and one ef Ins legs was still out of the door. They forced the door to, and it is feared his leg was much injured.
