The same rea son forbids me to reply upon this point. Q. When Lavalette came to you on Sunday, at sev e n in th e evening, was be dressed in the uniform of an English Officer? —A. No, sir; and I seize this occasi o n to e xpl a in the'an swer which ,1 made to the prefecture of police, - and which I wish should not- be considered as a falsehood.. 1 was asked whether a person dressed in an Englisb tiniform did not call on me, and I replicd in the negatives this does nut form a contradiction of what I state to-day.: in point of fact, M. de Lavalette had on his French dress, and it was myself alone who wore an Englkli uniform. Q. Who are the persons who addressed you, or who brought the uniform I—A. The uniform was lent me by an officer of my regiment, who was not in the secret, and whom I con• vinced that Mr. Bruce and I wished to carry of a lady trom Paris. This officer was called Bruce; he is a lieutenant of the first company of gretuidias of the Royal Guard of Eng land. Q. It appears, nevertheless, according to the note that yon have signed, and which I now present to you, that this uni form was furnished to yon by a tailor. By the - first paratraph of this note it appeared to have cost lfri francs.—A. Thar ar ticle has nothing to do with sbe uniform. The tailor had no other orders but to make a great coat, a h!ue waistcQat, nod grey pantaloons. I had given him the measure without in forming him of the object; and I took care to remove from him every suspicion on his part, by hint that these clothes were to he sent to Abbeville to a giaarter•master; and to fix greater probability on this story, I gave orders to wrap the whole in paper, Wing, that I would delis er them to the servant of the quarts r -master, who was • then in Paris. The tailor lives in the rue Pinot,: he is a Gernrui, and has a ►mall shop. I have forgotten his family name, and knew only that his Christian name is Frederic. • - , . . _ .

The above being read, the 'accused declared that he ad hered to his answer*, and signed, with us and the clerk both these presenti, and the letter which we presented to him. (Signed) HUTCHINSON, DUPUI% and DEROSTg• LETTER' FROM SIR ROBERT WIL,ON TO INTERCEPTED BY till: FRI Cli cuYLIINmENT. " it was determined (says Sir R. Wilson) that the fugitive should wear the English uniform; that I should condoct him through the harriers in au En g li s h cabriolet, wearing the uniform my self ; that I should have a relay horse nt La Cha pelle, and proceed from theaee to Compiegne, where Mister should repair with my carriage, into which I should afterwards travel with Lavalette to Mans, by the way of Cambray. I had no dif. &miry hi procuring from Sir C,,Stuart,. at my re quest, and on my responsibility, passports for Ge. octal ‘Vallis and Colonel Lesnock, names which we chose because they, were not :preceded by Christian names, The passports were!eountee signed by the Minister far Foreign , . Affairs, but when they were presented for signature, one of the Secretaries asked who Colonel Lesnock was ? Be immediately replied, it is the father of the Admiral. Thi% object accomplished, Blister took the passports for Colonel Lestrock, procured post horses for his carriake ; arul'finalty, to avoid all suspicion, took an apartment and . a coach-house at the Hotel tic Helder, In the name of Colonel Lesnock. Bruce fortunately learned that the bri gade, comManded by his cousin, General Wis. bane, was at Compiegne, and that his Aide-dc. Camp Would quit Parts next clay, the 7th of the month, fur Compiegne, with the horses and bag gage belonging to the General, who was then in England. .We saw the Aide-de-Comp at Bruce's, Where we met by appointment. We told him that very particular circumstances' obliged us to pass through Compiegne with a person, who must remain unknown; we wished to stop.an hour 6i' two in a renuite and retired qiiartir. Ile frankly replied, that he ‘voold!trust entirely twos on the subject ; that his existence depended on preserving his situation, but that he would not hesitate to accede to Our (proposition, putiQuiarly oiocebe saw we wre ink:rutted in the afrair. t avnw that -1 'felt repugnance aritnfilitatiOg !inch :a per sotiin this affair, but the rause waa'too important to stop at that cousidcration, and f encouraged r the hope tiott a day would one time arrive in which it Might be possible for me acknow ledge this service. Bruee procured LOValette*3 Measure, am! Hutchinson gave it to a tailor, sayitig it Was the measure of a Quarter-Mas ter of his regiment, who wanted a great coat, waistcoat, and pantaloons, but did min need- a suit. The tailor observed that it Will the measure of a tall man, and that it had not been taken by a tailor. His remark alarmed me so much that I thought it advisable to send Hut •chinson to say to him, that as the Quarter-Master could not wait till Saturday evening, it was ne cessary that the clothes should be carefully packed' up, and that they would be forwarded to him atter his departure.. Hutchinson and Blister took, bvsides all !Accessary precautions with respect to the horses, and reeeuuuitred the barriers in a pro itienade on the preCeding day. Every precaution for avoiding accidents being adopted, it was final ly agreed that Lavalette should be, removed to Hntchinson's lodgings on Sunday, Jan. 7, at half past nine in the evening precisely ; and that next. day, at half past seven in the morning, equally precise, 1 should be at his door with Bruce's ca briolet, toy servant, the servant on my mare well equipped ; its if I were going to make an inspec tion ; that Hutchinson should ride along by the side of the cabriolet, keeping up conversation with us ; and that its ease any embarrassment oc curred, Lavelette should mount my horse, and I the mare, in order that we might act more freely, and gain in expedition. . r should certainly have preferred passing the barriers on horseback, but it was thought that the manner of riding on horse back might attract attention, and that passing the barriers la full clay, and in an open carriage, would shew too much confidence to give cause for suspirion. The hour being at last if rrived, !lis ter, Bruce, and myself, repaired to Hutchinson's apartments, under the pretext of a party for punch at the moment' when Lavalette was to resew himself, Bruce advanced to the top of the stairs, Lavalette took him by the hand, and we saw before us this interesting personage. 'He was dressed iu a blue eniform, and sufficiently dis guised to puss Id ithout remark in the apartment of rat ifaiglisinaa.

" The, road was full of all sorts of people ; but whenever we met the diligence, I began to con verse with a lond voice in English ; and I re marked that my hat, which 100111ted with a white plume, and which La valette held in his hand, attractedthe notiqc of the passe ngers ,- an d withdrew their attention from us. " Lavalette has such marked features, and his person is so well known to all the Post-masters, that the greatest care was necessary. At La Chapelle, where we changed horses, we experi enced a moment's alarm at the sight of four gend armes who hovered about us, Hut Mitchinson, oo being questioned by them, relieved pi flora their importuuities by replying, that we were go ing to choose cantonments for a divisioo of the .English army.

" M. &mak establishes, in his Memoir, that Perlet, pretending to concur in the reesta blishment of the House of Bourbon, held with the Ministers of the King, for several years, a correspondence, which he previously showed to Buonaparte, and which Buonaparte frequently diet tied himself. " All was. prepared in this perfidious corre spondence, in order to draw to hr au, c . l i. , most devoted Royalists, to, give then, over to I:.e Lx-e -cutioner.'lt was with this horrible hope that (hey wished to draw over even a Prince of the Rapti Family: It was not sufficient for the Usurper, by the must 'odious assassination, to have .reu. tiered inevitable, the extinction of the' illustrious House of Conde: another victim of the Royal blood was necessary.. " Pellet, who, under the dictation of Buona parte, wrote to the agents of Louis , XVIII. mada them believe for a long tune that there existed at Paris a Royal Committee, composed of distin• gui4lied persons, who only waited for the presenco of a grand personage to dielare themselves in fit• your of the legitimate King; in short, the ob ject was nothing less than to draw into an infa , mous ambush a son of France, and even the King kimself. 4 !

IVhen this tsar certain, they did all they could to bury their horrible COWS in oblivion but, if there could be any doubt of the Divine justice, what proof at. .ii could be more con vincing than the almost miraculous discovery of the correspondence which established at these facts ?
