LAVALETTE,

This gentleman who has long resided at Augs-
burg, set out on his return to France a few days
ago. His history is well known. Mons. Lavalette
was charged with the crime of high treason for re-
suming his functions as Post-Master General im-
metliately after the departure of the King irom
Paris, and Wore Bonaparte had entered Paris and
re-invested him with that appointment. This was
the charge on which he was tried ; but the true
motive of his prosecution was a belief that he had
conducted a correspondence with the island of Elba,
and encouraged the return of his former Sovereign
his benefactor, and relation by marriage. He was
tried, condemned, and ordered for execution. The
subsequent transactions which effected his release a
few hours before the consummation of the sentence,
and secured ultimately his escape from France, are
as well known as they are honourable to England.
Mealtime Lavalette, however, became tke victim of
her generous devotion ; she had, to save her husband,
risen from a bed in which she had endured the
affliction of miscarriage. This effort, and the great
anxieties of her mind, followed by long confinement,
impaired her health, and produced alienation of her
mental faculties. Touched by these misfortunes,
and convinced, no doubt, of the innocence of Mons.
Lavalette, the King, about a year since, signed the
act of grace which cancelled the former proceedings,
and re-established Mons. Lavalette in all his rights
as a Francis citizen. Previous to his departure from
Ausburg, Nlonsieur Lavalette considered it to be his
duty to publish a declaration, to the asseverations of
which all those who know the private virtues of
Mons. Lavalette will not hesitate to give implicit
credence. This declaration confirms the belief en-
tertained generally at the time of his trial that the
suspicions of his agency with the Isle of Elba during
Buonaparte's residence there were false.
