TA LLIEY.

If we e0,,11d suppose that Gentleman as well ac-
quainted with every circumstance that has lippeneti
in France, as the Members of Opposiion were igno-
rant of the charatter ,of that man, whom some of
them have entertained at their houses, and many
treated with uncommon attention, we should dedi
care the following sketch of his life to his English
Patrons. We do not, however, ascribe their con-
duet to ignorance, and particularly when we see the
Leader of them considering it.necessary Lo disavow
the alts of his Partizans.

JEAN LAMBERT FALLEeN was the son `of the
Porter of a French Nobleman, who, being at.
tached to his Servant, bestowed on his ' Son a
better education than he could otherwise have re-
ceived, and than the situation of his fathor entitled
him to. He became first the Bailiff of the Marquis
DE BE RCY,• afterwards a Clerk in the Commercial
and Finance Ofti:e, and then a Copying. Clerk to
the Deputy Brosteret in the Constituent Assembly.
He was next employed in the Office of the /110/.4/Cur.
Although then but young, (1790 he determined to
set. up for himself, and begun a Journal entitled
L' Ami des Citojens, which was not very successful.
To the labour of a Daily Jnurnal, he joined, " by
way of diversion," a Weekly Paper, and tile rest of
his time he filled up with pronouncing civic harangues
on the Constitution. Such zeal was ,not likely •
to pass without reward where the Populace had to
award the palni. He distinguished nimself in the
Seaions, and appealed on the Bth of June 1792, in
the Assembly at the head ofa Deputation who came
to denounce the Department which had suspended
PETION on account of the disturbance on the '2lst
June, and to require his installation in office. At
the time of the loth of August, he was appointed
Secretary General -of the Commune, and from that
time began to play a considerable part. On the
31st of the same month, he appeared again at the
Bar of the Legislature, in order to solicit the re_
peal of a Decree which put an end to the Provisional
Municipality ; and on the 3d of September, he
again came forward there, with the infamous
TRUCHON, in order to present a Report on the
Massacres in the Prisons. He asserted, that the
Commune had done all in its power, to prevent the
assassinations, but with a grace peculiar to himself,
he ventured to shew the Legislators in what manner
the People were exercising their Justice. That he
was not innocent of these crimes may be inferred
from many authentic documents ; the speech which
he delivered on-the 3d, when he asserted, that the
Massacres were at an end, while they were still
continued at the Bicetre, on the evening of the 4th,
and at La Force, on the 7th of September :---an
order signed by him, on the 3oth of August, joint-
ly with Httnutikr, and MEE cs, for the imprison. -
Anent of those who were afterwards made /iklims :
A Placard, signed jointly with the same men,
which began, " AAA.- Armes, Aux Armes, Citoyens !"
which was the signal for bloodshed, &c. The
friends of TALL have- justified him against this
accusation, by stating, that though he was present •
al all the conferences in which these events were
planned, with LL AU Ro ESP 1E P.RE, DAYTON,
and others, he still shewed a degree of repugnance
to these atrocious meac.ure6.

As the reward of .this sanguinary merit, he was,.
in the course of the same month (Sept. 179 z), eletl-
ed a Deputy to the National ConVention, for the
Department of the Seine and Oise ; and in that As-
sembly, he was continually at the Bar in order to
defend the Terrorists, and to denounce their Ene.
mien. When the Trial of Louis XVI. was begun,
he shewed himself one of his most indefatigable
Enemies, and suffered no • opportunity to escape of
abusing him. On the Itch, 13th and is th of Decem-
ber, he was strenuous in pressing for sentence
against that Prince, opposing the granting of Coun-
sel to him, and preventing him, even as far as it
was in his power, from communicating with his Fa.
mily : he, of course, voted for his Death.

During the year 1793, and the beginning. of
1794, his conduet was remarkable for nothing but
its violence, of which Bourdeaux was unhappily for
it a considerable theatre. There, in conjunction
with his Colleagues, BAUDOT and YSAB EAU, he
pursued his work of devastation, which was stop.;
ped only by a stronger passion, that of love, for his
present wife Madame de FoNmAr, the' daughter
of the Spaniard GABAR R US, who was then a pri-
soner in Bourdeaux. From the time of his attach-
ment to her he became another man, and the lzL
mentations were succeeded by revelry in Bour_
deaux. The Military and Revolutionary Com-
mittees of BoutdeauX were suppressed by him, as
oppressive to the Citizens; and his conduc'l became
so alarmingly mild, that the Conimittee of Public
Safety sent an Inspcdor to overlook his conduE,
which they severely censured. TALLIEDt, greatly
dissatisfied, returned to Paris, and the Persecutions
which his fair one, to whom he .was not married
until after the gth Thermidor, suffered,- gave
rise to that hatred width he ever arrwards bore to
ROB ESP lERR F. and his Tools. I is opposition to
that Tyrant was strenuous from that period, and it
was formidable to him, ftbm the determined charae:.'
ter of TALe I E:a, and from the influence which be
acquired after his return from Bourdeaux. As early
as the 21st of MarC:h 1791, he was introduced
with acrimony by ROB ESP I ERR E in a speech
which he then delivered against the Partizans of
I-I.triERT ;—but he neither resented this, nor a
subsequent attack made on him on the I rth of
_rune, when ROBESPIERRE treated him with still
greater hauteur. The certainty of his danger
rather than any principle of humanity—for what
principle could be supposed to exist in the mart
who had in the Jacobin Club ,defended Joint_
DAN, commonly called Coupe-Tete—induced TAL.
LIEN to join the Thermidonan Fadion, and on the
gth Thermidor (the 27th July) the victory declared
in their favour.

The anions of this man subsequent to the fall of
ROBESP lERRE, and his other claims to the atten-
tion of Opposition, would. occupy more space than
we can at once devote to them. We shall to-mor-
row take a view of the remainder of this well
slcnt life:

(To bt cant:A:led.)

Tiw James, Ccicey, is lost at St. Michael's.
