Leinis

" GtntlemeU—l have been guilty of great crimes
against the best of Kings : if ii had been my lot to
surf; r, 1 should have wished that my death, bi fur-
nishing a great example, should have become useful
to the repose of the State. But his Majesty has Coll..
LICSCCIIded to display his clemency towards ale : I
pray HEAVEN that this spectacle of the paternal
goodness of the King may rally around his thtune
..11 seduced Frenchmen, and that if ever the calm
promised to France sh uld be disturbed, I shall be
permitted to shed all the blood which is left me in
the service of our good King.
,‘ Be pleased, Mr. President, to lay at the feet of
his M ijr sty, the expressions of my profound grati-
tude, and my oath of fiddly until death."
General DLbelle was then taken back to the Air-
ha!-c, and afterwards transferred to La Force.

FIRST PERMANENT COUNCIL OF WAR.
TRIAL OF GENERAL DROUET.
Yesterday, the Council having assembled at eleven
o'clock, aud the Prisoner having been brought in,
M. Delon, as reporter, read the documents. The
ti::,t was a letter Iron' General Drone' to the Mini-
:act of War, prevanis to going with Bonaparte to
Elba, and in which he expresses his atrachtnesit to
the ILTsorper, but professes great tkvotion fur his
country. 'Drat clause of the Treaty of Fontainblearr
was then read which dtclared, that all Frenchmen
who followed Bonaparte to Elba should lose their
quality as Frenchmen, if they did not return to
France within three years.
The depositions of the witnesses were then read :
one M. Lacour stated, that having reproached Gene-
ral Drouet at Porto Ferrajo with his unwillingness to
follow Bonaparte to France in 1815, Drouet observ.
ed—" It is from esteem that I do not go with him :
this departure is a great folly : if the Emperor tak.es
my advice, ire will not leave his island."
Another witness said, that Bonaparte, when walk-
ing on the deck of the ship which conveyed him from
Port,: Ferrajo, observed, pointing to Drouet" If I
had taken the advice of that wise man there, I would
not have left Elba, but it was still more dangerous
to remain at Porto Ferrajo."
The Duke of Tarentum (Marshal Macdonald)
spoke in the highest possible terms of Gen. Drouet.
He said, that iLwas entirely owing to him, after
Bonaparte's defeat at Waterloo, that the army of the
Loire was so quietly disbanded.
General Drouet rested his defence on the circum-
stance of his being a subject of Bonaparte, as Sove.
reign of Elba, and never having received the pay of
A French General during his absence from► France.
At half-past eight in the evening, the Council de-
clared him not guilty :—three votes pronounced him
not guilty, and four guilty ; but by the French laws
in military tribunals there must be at least a majority
as of five to two to.convict a prisoner.
