THIRD DAY.

The Court of Assizes of the Enre yesterday re-
sumed this trial. The interest that it excited was,
if possible, greater than on preceding days. M.
du Haz4, in completing his evidence of the pre-
vious day, said that Mlle. Laurence, the governess,
had, in his presence, frequently cast significant
glances at Guillot, and had once placed her hand
orz bis, before, however, all the persons assembled
in the dining-room, and remarked aloud, "How
cold you are !" M. de Courdaveaux, a professor
at the college of Troyes, brother-in-law of Guillot,
said that he also had noticed a certain degree of
familiarity between Guillot and the governess.
This witness added that he had blamed his sister
from having intercepted the insulting letter which
Ernest de Jeufosse had written to her husband,
because the fact of Guillot not noticing it gave him
the appearance of a man who was so cowardly that
he would submit to be insulted rather than fight.
He said also that reports had been spread that
Guillot was making love to Mile. Blanche, and
even that Mme. Guillot encouraged him in so
doing ; and Guillot considered this such an insult
to his wife that he had intended fighting a duel with
the author of the reports ; Guillot had at the same
time assured witness that it was the governess he
was paying attention to, and not Mlle. Blanche.
The same witness mentioned a curious circum-
stance—that Guillot frequently gave powder and
shot to Crepe!, and that it was not impossible that
it was with the very powder and shot which he had
given him that he was killed. He added that Guillot,
notwithstanding his conduct was blameable, was a
kindhearted man. Mlle. Barrault, an elderly lady,
aunt to Mine. Guillot, and residing with her, gave
Guillot a high character, and said that he was re-
markably kind and affectionate towards his wife;
she declared that not only had she never heard
that Guillot had made advances to Mlle. Blanche,
but that that young lady had, in answer to her in-
quiries, told her positively that ho had never ad,
dressed an unbecoming observation to her. She
added that Guillot had once observed that !Mine.
de Jeufosse was wrong in acting haughtily towards
him, as he could, if he pleased, make her go on her
knees, and beg his pardon. Mme. Dutfoy, of Can-
vicort, stated that she had known all the parties,
had noticed that Guillot paid marked attention to
the governess, and had heard that he had spoken in
scandalous terms of that young lady and Mlle.
Blanche. She had one day seen Mine. de Jeufosse
in a state of great exasperation, caused, as she told
witness, by Guillot having gone about declaring
that ho would dishOnour Mlle. Blanche, and would
never allow her to marry. M. Huet, an ex-notary
of Gaillon, said that he had remonstrated with
Guillot about his attentions to Mlle. Laurence,
but Guillot had laughed at him, and had boasted
of having received letters from her. He (witness)
had told all that to Madame de Jeufosse. Mlle.
Laurence had afterwaids told his wife that Guillot
was accustomed to prowl about the chateau at night,
and that Mlle. Blanche was at such times agitated ;
but he had considered all that only foolish gossip,
and bad directed his wife to take no notice of it.
He had heard that the people of the chateau had
resolved to " pepper" the man who went into their
grounds at night. Witness added that Madame de
Jeufosse was a strictly pious, virtuous, and excellent
woman. Madame Huet, wife of the preceding wit-
ness, after speaking in high terms of Madame de
Jeufosse, deposed that Mlle. Laurence had told her
that the manner of Mlle. Blanche had become
strange, that she had heard her talking with some
one in her chamber, and that it would be well to
tell Madame de Jeufosse ; but Mile. Laurence had
afterwards admitted that she was mistaken in what
she had said. She (Laurence) had, however, told
her that Guillot was endeavouring to make himself
agreeable to Mlle. Blanche, and witness had ob-
served the same thing. A tradesman named
Criquebceuf deposed that he had been very inti-
mate with Guillot, and thought him a frank, honest
fellow; but he was of light character, and talked in
an extravagant way. Guillot had told him he was
making love to Mlle. Laurence, but that she repelled
him, and threatened to tell about him. Guillot
had subsequently informed him that he was making
love to Mlle. Blanche, and he gave him an account
of his relations with her. He was accustomed, he
said, to go into the orangery and to stand on a
chair to talk with Mlle. Blanche, and he described
the signals which he made to get her to come to
the rendezvous. Mlle. Laurence suspected some-
thing, and that circumstance rendered tho meetings
difficult. " You must give us," said the president
to the witness, " the details which you gave to the
examining magistrate." "Well, Guillot told me
that things between him and Mllo. Blanche com-
menced by a pressure of tho band, to which she
responded, and that a rendezvous was then agreed
on. To that rendezvous she came with a lighted
candle. 'You little fool!' said Guillot, how
din you think of coming with a light f' and ho
blew out the candle. Guillot said that ho ob-
tained a second rendezvous some days after ;
they stood at the window a long time kissing each
other. Ho corresponded with her. I told him
that he was wrong in putting names to his letters,
and he said that he would not do so again. Guillot
asserted he once slipped a letter into a skein of
green worsted and handed it to Blanche. In re-
turning, be noticed that she was irpld towards
him, and he said to witness, ' I wager that little
Blanche has been to confession, and that the priest
has been lecturing her 1' And he afterwards said
that he had asked Blanche if such had not been
the case, and she had answered in the affirmative.
Guillot was accustotneed to throw little pieces of
wood at the windows of Mlle. Blanche to let her
know that he was outside. Once, in climbing up
to the window, he saw her and Mlle. Laurence
undressing in presence of Madame de Jeufosse, and
he tapped at the window. Madame de Jeufosse
heard the tap and turned round. After awhile ho
again tapped, and Madame do Jeufosse turned
round sharply, but saw nothing. One night Guillot
came to me in a violent passion and related that,
Madame de Jeufosse being absent, he was that
night to have been admitted to the chamber Of
Mlle. Blanche, and that Blanche bad taken the
precaution of oiling the hinges of the door, but
that, just as he was about to enter, Mine. de Jeu-
fosse had returned home ! Witness added that he
fullybelieved all that Guillot had told him. Another
witness, named Augustin, deposed that Guillot bad
told him of his relations with Mile. Blanche, that
he was accustomed to meet her in the grounds of
the chateau, that one night in order not to he
heard she had come out without her shoes, and
that she had, after some hesitation, consented to
receive him in her chamber. Witness added that
Guillot knew that he was in danger of being fired
at in going into the grounds, and that he took his
servant with him to convey him home in the event
of his being wounded. Sergeant Regade, of the
7th Hussars, deposed that be knew that Guillot
had clandestine meetings at night with Mlle.
Blanche, and that more than once he had been
in the grounds of the chateau when they wend
together ; one night he and. Guillot had bin
chased by the domestics. She had continued her
intrigue even after the ruptuie of the two families.
A farmer, named Carder, and a t,ainekeepei,
*timed Caron, severally deposed that Guillot had
told them of his intrigue with Mlle. Blanohe,
that on one night ho was to. have been admitted
to her chamber, bit was baulked by the un-

The
latter latter witness added that, according to Guillot,
it was Mlle. Blanche who had made the first. ad-
vances. Several other witnesses deposed to smi-
ler declarations having been made to them by
Guillot. The court then adjourned.

The Special Diet of Coburg, in its sitting of the 13th,
again rejected, by 16 votes to 15, the bill proaented by
the Government for effecting a union between the
Duchies of Coburg and Gotha.
