CURIOUS FRENCH TRIAL—An officer of the
Chasseurs was lately tried in Paris for having, while being
shown the vaults of the Pantheon, drawn his sword, and
wounded several parties ; amongst others, a young English
girl, who was staying at the Hotel Louvre, but who refused
to appear against the prisoner. The guardian, to show the
echo is in the habit of calling out the names of the illustrious
dead buried there ; the dark damp vaults dimly lighted by
the guardian lantern, the disi.naleeho,acted upon the brain
of the young soldier, who imagining himself in the trench at
es _
Sebastopol, drew his sabre, demanded of his astonished.
fellow-visitors the password, which none could, of course,
give. The guardian, an old soldier, advanced to pacify the
officer, and was the first attacked and wounded. His lan-
tern was shattered, and the officer, calling on the soldiers
he imagined he was leading, dashed madly on in utter dark-
ness, but striking on every side ; the shrieks of the terrified
women added to the alarm. Few were wounded by the
sabre, but many, by striking against the tombs while en-
deavouring to escape, were severely injured. Fortunately
the guardian, who knew the place well, had, though
wounded, made his way out, and given the alarm,
and the guard coming up with torches, secured the officer,
after a most desperate resistance. There was no defence
offered ; the officer could give no explanation of the extra-
ordinary delusion of which he so suddenly became the vic-
tim. His advocate urged in mitigation the great bravery
he had displayed at Sebastopol, where he had been twice
severely wounded; his previous good character, and the
injuries he had received in the scuffle of being disarmed.:
and this pleading well for him, the prisoner was sentenced
to thiee months' imprisonment,
