HIGH COURT MARTIAL.
TRIAL OF GENERAL CAMBRoNE.

Sitting ofthe 26th IhrH.
The accusation directed against Pierri.
jaques Etrimeburon Cambrone, SO years of
age, born at Nantz, Marshal de Camp, &
Commandsnt of the Legion of Honor, is for
having attacked France and the legitimate
Government by force of arms.
At the period Of the treaty of Fontain-
bleau, which secured to Bonaparte the So
veregnty of the Isle Of Elba, General
Cambrone commanded one of the regi-
ments OF chasseurs of the old guard he
chose to join the 400 Freuchmen, who fol-
lowed the Ex-emperor in his exile. and
was appointed Commandment of Porto Fer
rajo. During his stay i'm the Isle of E.lba.
he wrote to General Curiai, requesting of
him the preservation of his title and of his
rights as French Citizen, in the event of
his quitting Bonaparte's service. His letter
remained unanswered.
Gen. Cambrone followed the usurper in
his criminal Invasion, he entered his cham
Der OF Peers, and when Bonaparte eed at
Waterloo, ne was left for dead on the field
of battle.
A prisoner in England, he sent to the
King his act of submission. The letter he
sent to the king concluded in these words ::
" Ii my life, which deem irreproachable,
gives me any right to your confidence,
claim my regiment; if the reverse, my
wounds entitle me'to retirement, which I
then shall solicit regretting that l am de-
Prlvei = serving my eou.nIy.'
MS letter IS of a date anterior to the
ordinance Of the oath July, to which Gen.
Cambrone bowed submission as soon as he
was made acquainted with it being set at
liberty agreeabiy to the last tire ity Of peace,
he came over to give himself up to justice,
and shared the captivity of General
