told me that Fieschi was quite alone in the room when the
machine was fired, and added, " It is very unfortunate that it
has not succeeded, for if it had yoU would have lacome rich,
sou would hate had at least 20,000 f. now in your pocket."
Before we parted we hired a room for Bf., and gave a franc
as earnest money. He desired me to take my things there,
and don't ards meet him in the square before the church of
Notre name. Before we parted, however, we reflected that
the room we had taken was in a common lodging-house, and
not sufficiently private, and therefore determined to forfeit the
earnest money, and we afterwards took a room in the Rue
Long Pont. He came the next day with the trunk, paid 6f.
for a fortnight's rent, and gave me sf. for myself. I had
believed that Fieschi was dead, but found in a journal that he
was not. Ziforey said, " Unfortunately ht is not dead, but he
will never want his property; you may therefore sell it, but
not in Paris." He afterwards told me he would bring me
60f. to pp to Lyons, where I have a brother living. I replied,
" But tills is not what you promised Fieschi? You told him
you -would take care of me; and you wish to get rid of me by
giving me these 60f." He then said he would leave me at
Lyons only for a year or two, until the affair had blown over,
and then I should return.

Morey admitted that he had recommended Nin'a to go to
Lyons, and that he had given her 60f. for the expenses of her
journey.
_ _ .

Declaration of Nina.—Morey came back in the eveßing.
The trunk had been opened since 11 o'clock in the morning.
I gave him the books which it contained, and which be bad
begged me to keep for him. There were four volumes, three
entitled La Police Devoilie, and the fourth De la Femme.
Did not Morey tell you that Fieschi ought to have blown
his brains out ?—Yes, Sir ; on the 30th 1 said to Morey,
" Fieschi is not dead yet."—" No," he replied, "he ought to
have killed himself, but he has nbt yet done it. lam sorry

for it."
The President—Fieschi, is it true that you promised to
blow your brains out'?—Morey told me to do so ; but as I had
the courage to commit this crime, I preferred going to the
scaffold, in order to serve as an example. I will go, and I
shall summon up moral force enough to be useful to my
country (with exultation). People, when they see me die,
shall say, " It is still Fieschi : he will not let his courage fail
him." Pepin was present at, this conversation. I replied to
Morey, " No, I shall not blow my brains out ; I will fight till
I am annihilated, and I will force those who attack me to kill
me themselves." Louvel died without revealing anything._
(Movement.) I, gentlemen, I have not acted thus. I wish
my example to be useful to my country ; I have cut off more
heads than all the National Guards put together. I have
driven back the revolution by 20 or 40 years, for ever perhaps.
I have put Louis Phillippe in a condition of going wherever
he pleases without any more alarms, and I will prove all this
some day, when the Court grants me leave to speak. Do you
suppose that the books which were in my trunk were a testi-
mony ? I ask what it is ?
'The President—Where are they ?—I could soon find them.
( Prolonged movement.)
M. Dupont rose up. Fieschi said that he might speak,
and gave way. At this- moment an usher of the Chamber
approached Fieschi, and presented him with paper and a pen.
Fieschi wrote some words, and the usher took the paper to the
President.
The President.—Fieschi may now be beard.—(Movement.)
Fieschi (to the President.)—Have the measures which I
pointed out been taken with respect to the books?
The President.—l have done what was requisite.
Fieschi.—l will now say that the books will be found with
the porter, Swartz, in the street where the archives of the,
kingdom are. I will also give some other explanations re-
specting the trunk. I will explain every circumstance of the
plot. I have no more interest in seeing my accomplices be-
headed than in losing my own head.—(Great sensation:)
I do not intend to justify myself; but let the Government
take its measures. I want no pardon. I will mount the
scaffold to serve as an example. The letters which I have
written to the President will prove that I have not asked my
life from any human being. Those letters may be produced,
if the Government, the nation, or the universe, think proper
to demand them.—(Extraordinary sensation and amaze-
ment.) I think that I, at this moment, see Morey chat-r-
-in- the machine along with me. It was he that pushed
the balls down with a mallet. By means of an inge-
nious trick, with which I am well acquainted, be contrived to
make four of the barrels burst, and he also arranged matters se
that the charge, instead of taking the proper direction, should
recoil, and hit me in the face. He has succeeded in hisl
ob-
ject.Bu disclosure.
I for M. Lavocat, I would have made no disclos •e.
I chose him, in preference to Ministers, as the depositary of
my revelations ; and now that I have told everything, will
add that my crime trill not be unproductive. It was perhaps
necessary that a hundred men should be sacrificed to save our
country, which is the envy of strangers. The Government is
now saved. You will be at rest. . Gentlemen, I also shall be
at rest ; 'for I shall join my_victitas. I had leagued myself
with people who made a cat's-paw of me, and my mistake wss
in being guided by them. I again affirm, that Morey loaded
.he lyirre:s so as to insure my death. He Was determined
that I should Im'eathe my last on the spot where I then stood.
—( This incoherent declaration produced unequivocal marks of
amazement from the Court and the whole of the auditory in
the galleries.)
After some observations from the Procureur-General, who
• contended for the veracity of the witness Nina Lassave's de-
clarations, the sitting was suspended.
At a quarter past 4 the sitting was resumed.
Annette Boquin, a linen-draper, No. 111, Rue l`trATetard,
deposed, that of all the prisoners she only knew Fieschi, at
whose house she had livctrl. During her stay she had seen
Nina Lassave and Agin ithe there, but never any men. She
never heard any conversation of Fieschi that could lead to a
suspicion of his projects.
A female witness, named ,Daurat, alias Agarithe, was then
brought
M. Dupont asked her if she remembered Fieschi having told
her that ayoung man' had taken away his mistress from -him ?

_
—She replied in the negative.
Fieschi—M. Dupont says that Boircau was the lover of
Madame Petit.. It is well known to all the world that ths
is not the case. Pray let us speak of this woman as little iis
possible. I have had the misfortune to love her, and a man
like me loves only a single time, whether in polities or 'in
affection.
The sitting was adjourned at a qukter past five.
SITTING OF THURSDAY, Fan. 4.

The prisoners Ficschi, Morey, Pepin, Boircau, and Bescher
were led in by the Municipal Guards at half-past 12 o'clock.
Fieschi stepped over the bench with the agility
of a young
man of twenty, smiled around with the greatest self-compla-
cency : having viewed the lower parts of the Court, he then
turned his attention to the witness-box immediately above
him, and examined its occupants with an inquiring eye.
Upon the entrance of the President, at a quarter to one
o'clock, Ficschi made a respectful bow to the Court, and then
sat down.
Colonel Lavocat, Member of the Chamber of Deputies,
examined.—Had known Ficschi for some time ;- he told him
he was the son of a captain who had served in the Russian
campaign. Ficschi was introduced to him by M. Catincs,
about the year 1830, witness being member of the Committee
of National Recompenses, and it was probable that Fieschi
had also called on him, as well as a thousand others; for putting
in their claims. He was subsequently named a non-commis-
sioned officer, upon the ground of his having suffered.for his poli-
tical opinions. At the period of the cholera Fieschi attended
M. Cannes (ill of that malady) and waited on him with the most
affectionate assiduity. About the same time wiutcss's bro-
ther was attacked with the same disease, Ficschi offered to
wait on him night and day, and called several times to ace
him during his illness. It was this generous conduct on the
part of Fieschi that led to witness's intimacy with him. He
was anxious to be of essential service to the Government,
but said he did not like to serve in the inferior police. - He
was desirous of being sent to Italy, where he declared he

could be of great service in consequence of the Carlist con-
nexions of his wife. He asked witness to get him appointed
Prefect, but he declined, not wishing to meddle with the
police. About twelve or fifteen months since, he learned
that Fieschi had made a false representation of his having
been , a political victim, and that he had been condemned to
ten years' imprisonment for robbery (stealing a cow in Corsica).
M. Cannes believed him innocent, and called on witness to
speak in his favour. He, however, refused to see him, and
told M. Cauncs to recommend him to make a complete
avowal. M. Cauncs interested himself for Fieschi, but was
unable to screen him from the course of justice. Witness
was bound to say, in justice to the prisoner, that he had on
many occasions rendered important services during the dis-
turbance in Paris at that period : he gave information of the
designs and numbers of the rioters, and not being able to
enter the National Guards, he kept constantly by the side
of witness, and placed himself at his disposal : he frequently
employed him on those perilous occasions, when he always
conducted himself with zeal, ability, and rare intrepidity.
The prisoner Fieschi appeared greatly affected during the
deposition of M. Lavocat. He frequently shed tears, and ex-
hibited other signs of extreme emotion. As soon as the wit-
ness had concluded,
Fieschi said that the evidence just detailed was perfectly
exact, and he had nothing particular to add, with the excep-
tion that M. Lavocat had not stated one or two matters, per-
haps from their being of a private nature.
M. Lavocat (recalled).—The fact was, that Fieschi had
often told me to be on my guard, as there was a conspiracy to
assassinate me • indeed Fieschi had watched overy safety,
and had certainly saved my life.
The President, addressing M. Lavocat, told him that he
had rendered great services to the state for the part he had
taken in this affair, and that he had shown himself a man of
honour and integrity, and was therefore entitled to the thanks
of the country.
M. Dupon, advocate on behalf of Morey, observed that
Morey was accused of having had projects of revenge against
M. Lavocat. How was it that Fieschi could lodge at the
house of the enemy of his patron ?
Fieschi.—The fact was, he had no place of refuge, and any
port was better than none at all.—(Laughter.) In fact, he
'was in such a predicament, that he would have taken a lodging
with the wild beasts at the Garden of Plants.--( Sensation.)
M. Scwarz, porter at the Archives, stated that he had been
acquainted with Morey for the last seventeen years. He had
never assisted Morey to cast bullets, nor had he any Ann ,
wteuge
of the books, mentioned in the act of accusation,
(Left Sitting.)

PORT PATRICK.—The western wall of the har-
bour of Port Patrick was materially injured by the gale of
Saturday, the 23d ult. The sea made a complete breach
through it. Fears exist that this harbour, upon which
120,000/. has already been expended, and for which a
further grant has been obtained of 27,0001., must eventually
be abandoned as a packet station ; in which case the packets
will run from Loch Ryan to Belfast, or Larne.
