ARREST OF GENERAL GOURGAUD.
On Saturday morning, snout seven o'clock, the
tradesmen i.r) opening their shops the neigh-
bourhood of Compton-street, Brunswick-square,
were sill prised to see eight or ten melt stationed
Mt emriotts corners, a circumstance which excited
considerable snspieion. Soon atter a-well dressed
man was s,en walking up to No. 7, in the said
street, where he knocked at the door, and asked
for General Goorgaud. 'The servant answered he
was in bed and unwell, and could not be disturbed.
'.l he Gentleman instantly said he must see bim,
and if his door was not opened he would break it
open. The servant immediately Went into the
bed-room and told the General a person %visited to
sneak to him. The General told her to shew
him in, if he would excuse his being in bed. The
Gentleman went in and spoke a few words to the
General in French, which the servant (rid not un-
derstand, but she states that it did not seem to
excite any alarm in the General. He then ran
to the street door, opened it, and let in six 'at;
tendants he had outside in waiting. They all
rushed into the bed room together, where the
General was still in bed, threw the clothei off
Lion, dragged him out, and conveyed him to the
front patiour. The General, terrified at such an
outrageous proceeding, attempted to open the
window to alarm the neighbourhood and ask for
help, supposing, in fact, it Was Hu attempt to mur-
der him. The female servant of the house in
vain expostulated a ith them, telling them he was
a defenceless foreigner, and ought not to be treat-
ed in that manner. The General a second
tune attempted to open the window, and in
their scuffle to drag him from it they drove his
head through the glass, breaking thiee panes.—
They then threw him down on the ground, under
the table, three sevt rat times, and beat him with
ernes on the knocklea and on the head. The
noire brought down one of the other lodgers, a
Lady, who begged of the officers to treat him with
mot., humattity, adding, that if he was guilty he
would be, tried, but in the mean time they had
no right to beat him in such a manner. They an-
swered, it was a case of high treason, and that
they were acting for the Korg. She told them at
• all events they had no right to treat him thus.—
They Olen dragged him, bleeding profusely, to-
wards a coach standiug at the door. Terrified and
confused, he called on the servant girl not to
abandon him, and by this time a mob being col-
lected round, the alicers were anxious to force
him into the coach without loss of time ; seeing
that a considerable interest had been excited
among the bye-standers, a report was given out
that he was insane, and they were conveying him
to a mad-house. The officers than redoubled
their exertions, and dragged bin) towards the
coach, into which they posited him. lie tell down
in the coach, and one of his legs was still out of
the door. They forced the door to, and it is feared
his leg was much injured. He was driven off to
o detached cottage in Vauxhall-walk, next door
to the Academy. Inquiries being made, it was
discovered that the cottage belongs to Mr. Cap-
per. Not being able to walk, two of the'men
carried hins through the garden into the house.—
From thence, two hours afterwards, it is sup-
posed he was carried off through a back door,
and conveyed to Harwich or Dover. In the
neighbourhood of the cottage, where considera-
ble bustle was observed, the people were also told
lie was insane. As soon as the circumstance was
- known, two triendß of the General's applied at
Lord Sidmotith's office, and atter tuentiourog the
sudden toanner in which the 'General was taken
away, they begged to see him, to know it lie
wsuted mowey or any thing else, adding, that
this might be done in the presence of officers ;
but they were the more anxious to see hint, being
