ASSASSINATION OF GENERAL. DE LA GARDE,

AT NISMLS.
(Private Letter.)
" SIIMPAY MORNIN6I, Nov. M.
Tt is a painful task for my Lj announce to you a
crime that has excited the liveliest sensation at Paris,
General de la Garde was assassinated on Sunday, the
12ih, at Nismes. I have already apprised you that
the Due d'Angoolerne had redeemed the character of
the Princes, front the aspersions malevolence had di-
rected against them, by Ms unqualified approbation
of the moderate but firm measures which tam distin-
guished officer had taken to suppress .the atrocities
which were disgracing and desolating the South.
66 Before the ch prune of the Prince, a deputation
of the Relormed Religion obtained an Audience, and
petitioned for the Illicit). of re-opening their temples.
His ROyal Highness nut only acquiesced -in their
demand, but expressed his surprise and dissatisfac-
tion, at the conduct of those who should have so tar
mistaken the paternal nat 'Mons and the liberal prin-
ciples of the Goveretaoit, as to have necessitated
their temporat y closure.
66 On leaving the town he comatanded General de
la Garde to see hie promises fulfilled. • Oa Sunday
morning, in the execution of his duty, and in the
moment of haranguing a bigoted mob assembled to
oppose hiaa, and which. he had too confidently stir-
feted to approach, a villain levelled a pistol at him,
land shot him through the breast. • •
66 enie first repot t frurn General Briche reached
Paris to-day. General de la Garde was not dead, but
slight hopes were entertained of his recovery. His
constitution was already Unpaired from die wounds
he had received in divers engagements. The cons,er•
nat:on at the Thuiheries was great. No man's
virtues were better known or more generaliy appre-
ci.,ted. He possessed a. devoted loyalty. net bliaki
and headstrong, but the offspting of reason and cc n-
' viction, tempei,d with every liberal noti in that edu-
cation, the lung and severe lessons of adversity and a
generous respect for the rights of his fellow eitizns
could inspire. He quitted France in his early youth,
at the dawn of the Revolution. Soldier of fortune,
be offered his services in Russia, and though without
protection, his conduct and talents, which were of
the first rate, procured him preferment, and he be-
came Major General and Chamberlain to his lmpe.
riel Majesty. On the restoration of Louis XVIII.
be returned to his native country, and with the con
currence of Alexander was immediately and success-
fully employed. He rejoined the King at Ghent, and
alter sharing his calamities, re-entered the metropolis
with him ; he resided here but a very short time, in
the enjoyment of the society of the elder branch of
his accomplished and illustrious family, when he was
invested with the superior military command at
Nismes. He has been long aware of the perils that
menaced him. His private letters breathe a spirit
which announces' a determination of fulfilling his
duty, and a placid resignation to the consequences.
•' The execrable assassin of the virtuous de. la
Garde, was recur-, by the military force, and in-
stantly transferred td a place of secrecy, and thence to
one of safety. He is now in the prison of Montpel.
lier. The dispatches of te-day announce that the
General is not dead, but his life is deepened of. •
M Ney's memorial has • been most properly an-
swered and refuted by Count Metternich. The Con-
vention of 1815 was never ratified by Louis XVIIL •
It chalked out the line of conduct to be adhered to by'
the respective subsisting Powers; it was personally
binding on each of them, but it by no means gave.
them, either collectively or individually, a right of
interference either with the Tribunals or the subse-
quent regulations of the King.
46 An unavowed reply to tne explanation was 4rcu-
lated yesterday evening. 6lf (says the writer) 'the
French army wasin sufficient force to compel the et Hied
Powers to treat with and agree to the 6 et-ty 4, f 'hell
leaders, k is clear in the opinion of those lee ,it rs..the

had no effective force whatever. Notwithstanding
this reasoning, the tact after ail is, nu such cOdven-

Question.—What did yon say to Madame Ferrand
ilea she asked you for a permit for post horses?
Answer—l was in the Audience Hall, when a
14, conducted by a gentleman, presented herself
efore me: the lady said she wanted a permit to
sable her to join the King at Lille. I said to them,
nd perhaps with warmth, • that is impossible.'—
Wen, Sir,' said she, • it is to go to Orleans to my
Madame,' said 1, • I cannot do it:
• Well, Sir,' said she, • it is for our secarity.'—At the
xrd marity, I no longer resisted: I instantly entered
•ni office, took a pen and wrote my name upon a
jeer of paper, adding, as I think, the word Orkais,
sod f !gave this paper to Madame Ferrand.
Q. You have but just told us that you did not
°me to the Post Office expressly to take possession
lit : how do you account then for giving this paper
o Madame Ferrand'—A. I did not understand her.
• thought that a permit would be usetul to her c I
lid to myself, however, 44 But M. Ferrand, being
)irector-General of the Post Office, might as well
;raw up and sign this permit himself."
Q. It seems astonishing that Madame Ferrand,
,aviog her horses in her carriage, should be obliged
ogo to ybu to ask this permit there must have
eruinly been some obstacle to her departure which
caltl only be removed by you ?—A. This is a mis-
cderstanding, which I think I can explain.
Passing to other points, M. Lavalette said,
It has beep declared that I formed one of se.
Tral criminal assemblages at the Duke de Bassano's,
he Duchess of St. Lea's, and Madame Hamelin's"

' never set foot in Madame Harnelin's house. I never
ax her at Paris.. I never was intimate with the
)..,ke of Bessano.

‘4 Madame St. Leta (and here, Gentlemen, •t own
Ala my heat is wrung at seeing an unhappy woman,
rho, on foreign ground, is still pursued by calumny).
Madame the Duchess of St. Leu saw none but the
Zing's friends; she had been overwhelmed with his
sena& ; she-knew Bonaparte would not forgive her
for Accepting them. The return of Bonaparte gave
ner the severest grief ; she has been miserable from
that time. We most not, Sir, add too much faith
to public clamour."
Q. Why were you concealed in the house of Ma-
dame Sr. Leu during the last days that preceded the
Xing's departure f—A. I retired thither because she
was not there. I did not wish to compromise any
person, and I did not compromise her, because I was
is a separate building, which Ake did not inhabit.
Q. If you were a party to no conspiracy, why did
you conceal yourself f—A. Because I entertained cer-
taiu opinions respecting the newly named Ministry.
Four months ago I was advised to escape, lest I
should be arrested, but I rejected this advice. Four
days before my arrest I wrote to M. de Benevent
(Talleyrand) the Chief Minister, to assign me judges.
I have nothing with which to reproach myself. If I
save any regret, it is that Count Ferrand did not
eraat me the audience which I requested ; if he had
i certainly should not have been here."
Here M. Ferrand remarked, that he could not
;rant an audience to M. Lavalette, fur he never asked

The PI:•aaJDENT remarked, that there seemed to be

Levu. asked an audience.

2. (T 0 Lavaktte.)—By whose orders did you go
Kst-office ?—A. I did not come with orders,
lut with intentions : I wished to have a conversation
with M. Fernald, because I was no longer acquainted
with the Post.office ; and I thought M. ?errand would
gmr me information ; and, as Bonaparte had returned,
't wu quite natural that I should take possession of
Aa dice which I bad occupied for thirteen years.
2. You said, on your first examination, that you

After M. Ferrand carried the paper. away

ar'"ered, :he is bewildered and smpified, and
'teals to be taken up with his own departure only.

ibePoit Otactirnsuediatery, and did dot'

return until one o'clock, when M. Fet rand was gone.
Q. But who conferred upon you this adminiAration?
A. I took it myself, because I did not.doubt that
the Emperor would give me a place which I had held
for thirteen years.
Q. But you ought to have had no fears as to the
Emperor's interests suffering, for there were plenty

of Chief Clerks, and there was no immedi.tte occa-
sion for a Direetor-Geneml.
A. The Chief Clerks could not act without an ex-
press order from a Director-General. If M. Fer-

rand had delegated any one to do his duty, or if he
had protested against my entering the Post-Office, 1

would not have meddled with the business.

Q. Here is a letter, which calls together the Chief
Cleiks in your name.

A. This letter is the result of a convention which
I had with M. —, who thought proper to write
that letter ; but I did not preside over them whea
they came—l merely rerroached them, with warmth
I admit, for having turned out a person whose in-
terests I had warmly at heart, but this was not exer-
cising the functions of Directors General.
Q. Do you recollect this order, signed by you—'
" No Journal shall he permitted to be sent to-day, the
28th March." " None of the Ministerial letters or dis-
patches of the Prefect nt the Seine shall be sent to-day."
—A. I did not c.ill these papers orders, but I cer-
tainly signed them for the following reasons s The
Chief Clerk told me that he wanted many persons
for his office. I. said to him 66 then you must delay
the Journals until to•morrow " Afterwards he told
me, " There are some ministeri4i dispatches in ar-

rear—ought we not to have a supplementary mail ?"
I said 66 No ; send off-the dispatches in arrears first,
and let the others take their turn." The Chick
Clerks, who have to-day consciences so delicate. had
none on the 20th of March. for they shewed much,
deference to 411 I said, and made no objectiint. Had
they not taken an oath to the King ? Were they not
all decorated? yet they anticipated me in every thing.
Q. Here is a Proclamation, or at least a Circular,
signed by you--" The Emperor will be at Paris in
two hours; the Capital as in the highest state of en-
thusiasm ; all is tranquil ; whatever is done, there
will be no civil war." Do you know this document ?

Certainly, it is mine ; but it has been said, that
great numbers of it were issued, and this is not
correct.

Q. Here are three or four ?—A. I defy any one
to produce more than a dozen signed by me.
Q. But why did you write it at all ?—A. I thought
that the Couriers would say on their route that Paris
was in flames, and it was the fear of a civil war
which induced me to issue this note. Was this a
crime in the eyes of a Prince who abhors the shed-
ding of blood t Besides, this simple announcement
was no where placarded.

Another ord..: from M. Lavalette was, Shen read :
" The Pii,t4 l•ter is not to give horses to any person tvhts,is
not the bearer of an order signed by me, or by the Ministers of
the Emperor. (Signed) " LAVA LIU-TU.
" March 20th."

A. This was written in the morning. Before quit
ting the Post Office, I sent for the Post Master, but.
not being at the Office when he arrived, he came to
Me at my house., I askeJ h►m what was the state of
his relays ? He told me his horses were very much
fatigued, and that for a tong time they were incapable
of performing extraordinary service. I said to him,
" This is awkward, but we must manage for a few
days." He said to me, I cannot refuse the horses
without an order. I gave to him this paper, to which
I added the title df Dircetor-General, merely because
it was necessary that the paper should have au offi.

cial character.
The Marquis de Ronde-Ville deposed—That being
Prefect of Moulins, on the 22d of March, he was told
that a courier had enteftd the town calling-0 Vive
l'Empereur ;" and that he had raised a great mob
to which he announced the arrival of Bonaparte a
Paris. I arrested him and conducted him to my hotel.
I thought it best to intimidate him, to get at the real
truth, and I told him he should be shot in half an
hour if he told me a lie. He then told me it was not
true that Bonaparte was at Paris, but that lie had
met him at Ville-juif : he gave me two letters, one
was sealed, and contained an order signed Lavalette,
for the Post• Master to restore the communication be.
tween Paris and Lyons, which I had cut off.—
The other letter was open, and contained the pro-
clamation or announcement just read. I remarked
particularly the contradiction which resulted from
these expressions—" Paris is in the highest state of
enthusiasm," and " All is tranquil." 44 I know that
the courier read the Paper wherever he stopt, as at
Ponilly, Cones, Briare, &c."
M. de Lavalette here remarked, that he did not
know this Courier, and that be gave him no such,
orders : " those who know how a mail bag is made j
up, must admit, that it is impossible that a Courier,
who is sunk up to the chin in his dispatches, should
read a Proclamation, so as to produce a tumult ;
and if the Courier read the Note at every stage,
be must have done so of his own accord : the tu-
mult at Moulines was not occasioned by the Cou-
rier, but by the postillion, who cracked his whip as
be entered, and called Five P.Reepreer
He repeated that he only signed twelve of these
notes, and he dick() with a view to prevent a civil war.
General Dessole deposed, that he was desired by
Sebastiani, in the name of M. Lavalette, to send a

detachment of Nitional Gazrds to the POtt•oflice on
the 20th of March.

The accused admitted-thlt he di.l djs to preserve
the Post-office cash in else I c). tit_rslices.

M. Maca!el duposcd, that at Leven o'clock in the
morning, being in the Hall of Alidiunce, which was
leis bu.ittes.i, he heard an individual strike
tipan tb, &Kir with his cane, an .1 spy with a Ifflid
voice, ,g In the name of the Emperor, I take rss-s-
-sion of tle. Post. Office." M. I..tvalette then pre-
sented himself to me, and aced if M. nrrant4 was
visible; The witness thth went to M. I:errand, and
returned with him to his private room or office, where
he was followed by M. lavelatte, who whispered
something ill M. Ferrand's ear.
The accused here solemnly denied that he had
used the word. ascribed to him about taking posses-
sion in the name of the Emperor.
He added—"" Those who know my mild and sedate
character will not believe that I used those expressions.
I repeat that I was rather in a state of vesati,:a than
of exaltation at the moment."

At cis o'clock the Tridl was adjourned until
next day.

mitts, NOVEMBER 21.

We are assured that Marshal Ney, profiting by the
privilege granted to him by the Chamber of Peers,
has demanded the delay allowed him before the com-
mencement of the trial. He insists upon having a
law of the Chambers to regulate the forms of the
proceedings against him. If this request is complied
with a delay will necessarily take place, and the trial
will thus be put off.

Yesterday, after oar Paper was at Press, the arrival
of Mr. kLANTA. with the Treaties concluded with
Prance, was announced in the short London Gazette
Axtraordinary given in the preceding page.
'The entire documents have not yet transpired, but
we understand that they embrace some points more
consonant with strict equity than was at first reported.
The balance due to this country for the maintenance
of prisoners, which had been abandoned by the treaty
a 1814., is•now to be paid ; the British Creditors are
to. be paid the full amouut of their legal claims ; the
rills advanced to the KING of FHANCE and the
BOURBON PatticEs are also to be liquidated; and the
sum of which the Hamburg!' Bank was robbed is to
be restored.

Lord CASTLEREAGH, who has so happily brought
this Treaty to a conclusion, is expected in London
to•morrow.

Yesterday, els, after this Paper was at Press, we
received the Faris Papers of Monday. We have re-
peated our extracts, with a few additions. The ac-
counts from the South of France are most afflicting.
General DE LA GARDE, who had been sent to Nismcs
to assist in surpretsing the lawless riots and persecu-
Lions in tl:at (lemur, was shot by one of the assassins.
while endeavouring to pertuade a bigotted mob to
return to order.—Till the arm of Power shall be pro-
perly exerted to put down and to punish such atro-
cities as are now perpetrated against the Protestants'
we shall not cease to believe that they have been en-
couraged, indirectly at least. by those whose duty,
and whose real interest, it was to have prevented
them. It is not a little G. white washing," through
the medium of the French Journals, that can remove
suspicion from even some of the Royal Blood.—
It ill becOmes those who were fed by the bounty of
Protestants during their exile, who have been restored
to their country, to their rank, and to high influence,
by the bravery and magnanimity of Protestants, to
encourage the persecution of Protestants.
It is fitting that against persecution for religious
opinions the feelings of mankind should be arrayed,
and that bigots should be taught that they cannot
tyrannize over the minds of others with impunity.
We rejoice to find, that to the situation of the perse-
cuted Protestants in France, an enthusiastic but just
attention is at length excited among all the friends to
humanity, and to religious freedom. On the same
day when the Dissenting Ministers of the Metropolis
assembled to consider that subject as announced in
this Paper, id the Protestant Society for the Protection
of Religious Liberty" was 'all%) convened. As this
Society includes many Members of the Established
Church, and represents all the Protestant Dissenters
in Engltnd and Wales, any expression of their senti-
ments deserves, and must obtain, much respect. To
their exertions the Dissenters were principally in-
debted for the rejection of the Bill introduced by
Lard SIDNIOCTiI—for the repeal of the Conventicle
Acts, and for the other advantages titey have recently
obtained. We are gratified to perceive that their
efforts are not limited to their local and peculiar in-
terests, but that they have avowed their general at-
tachment to religious liberty, and their sympathy
with the persecuted, in some excellent resolutions
which they have published.
We trust that the exertions of the friends of religi-
ous liberty will not cease till a loud and general in-
dignation is excited against the persecutors of their
Protestant brethren in France; nor till they are com.
pelted to desist from measures which would have dis.
graced even the dark and barbarous ages of supersti•
tion. It is surely impossible that in this era of en-
lightened improvement, gloomy and besotted bigotry
can long succeed in trampling upon the rights and
privileges of mankind.
