LOUIS THE SIXTEENTH'S PLATE.—A Havre
Paper gives the following account of the Telemaque, sunk in
the Seine below Rouen, supposed to contain valuable effects
belonging to Louis the Sixteenth and his family, and to re-
cover which a Company, as we hare before stated, hat lately
been formed. 1n.1789, when the King and the Royal Family
became alarmed by the progress of the revolution, and deter-
mined to attempt an escape into
.England, they secretly hired
the Telemaque, at Rouen, for the purpose of sending over a
portion of their property. The vessel was laden with various
effects and a great number of very heavy barrels, brought
for several days in succession from Paris in covered
waggons. These barrels were conveyed secretly on board,
and covered with a quantity of faggots and firewood, which
was pretended to be the only freight, and destined for
Cherbourg. The Telemaque, not being able to carry
all that was sent from Paris, another smaller vessel was
hired. They both left Rouen at the same time, and dropped
down the river till within a short distance of Quillebceuf, where
they came to an anchor, waiting for the turn of the tide. In
the meantime the affair became known to the revolutionists,
and orders came to stop the ship!. The captains, however,
disobeyed them, and, weighing anchor, endeavoured to escape :
but the water still being low, the Telemaque stranded on a
sandbank, and was completely embedded. The captain and
all on board, except one boy, who was drowned, reached the
shore. Several endeavours have at subsequent periods been
made to raise the Telemaque, but have failed from her being
covered with sand; a change, however, in the bank, from its
shifting, is said to have lately taken place, so as to give rea-
sonable hopes of success in recovering the valuable property
supposed to be still in her hold. We should have noticed that
the companion of the Tentelaque got nearer the mouth of the
river, but was there overtaken and brought back to Rouen,
searched, and found to contain a large sum of money and part
of the royal plate.
The Canada papers state tnat it was found impos-
sible to obtain any other executioner to carry into effect
the sentence of the law in the case of Moreau than the Sheriff,
who was accordingly compelled to perform this very painful
duty with his own hand.
