Louis Peter Louvel was born cn the 7th of Oc-
tober, 1783, at Versailles. 1-7 e was domici!cd at

Cusset, Canton de Lapslice, department de l'Alice.
He entered the principal battalion of the artillery
train of the Ex-guard, in Ventlemaire, the 10th
year of the Republic, and wss employed as saddler.
year
battalion was reduced in 1:406. He is about
67 centimetres high ; his hair white, eyebrows the
a one, face large, nose and mouth small, chin round,
and face of an oval form. The search which was
made in his lodgings has led to no discovery. When
first taken to prison, he only had the usual show-
ance; he now has provisions from the Infirmary,
consisting of meat and soup ; he drinks no wine.
He seems offended when his interrogators insist on
his havi:g, accomplices ; he replies, that he should
not have been so imprudent as to entrust his secret
wish persons who might have been tempted to be-
tray him, in the hopes of receiy;ng a high reward.
He explains his extreme sobriety by saying, that he
fears the secret might escape him if he were to be
into xicated. He boasts of his crime, and speaks
with disdain of Ravaillac, whom he considers as
the vile instrument of fanatics, without courage.
fly keeping him on a low diet, he imagines that it
is intended to enfeeble his organs. He complains,
as of a torture, of the troublesome precautions that
are adopted to secure him from destroying himself.
He is surprised that a razor to shave hitufelf with
should be refused him, and speaks of suicide as a
weakness of which he is incapable. His character
is composed of firmness without deception, of an
attentive politeness far beyond the class of persons
to whit h lie belongs; but what astonishes his guards
the most, is to see him remain incessantly inacces-
sible to all remorse, glory in his crime, coolly anti-
cipate his punishment, and sleeping with profound
trauquility.
