Of the restoration of their rights to the French
people When, IN the fury Of popular excite
ment, at q subsequent period, an attempt was
made by the Parisians to sacrifice the unfortu
nate Louis 10th at Versailles, together with his
interesting family, we behold hero, as the
Commander of the National Guards, jeopardang
his life for their preservation, & snatChing them
from almost inevitable destruction. The advo-
cate ofnational liberty, he was all occasions
the stern opposer OF the excuses OF anarchy. He
could not, either as a loyal Frenchman or as a
republican sanction the appalling scenes If
blooGshed, by which the latter period Of the
French revolution was disgraced in consequence
of which, at later period, we see him an exile
from the country he would have died to save.
Being thrown by the chances Of fortune within
the grasp of despotic sway, he became the victim
of Jealousy, & was made, during FIVE long years,
for the greater portion OF which he was cut off
from all communication with those who were
nearest and dearest to his affections, 10 endure
the fortunes Of imprisonment.
TWAS during this unhappy period, that the
companion, Of his life, the chosen one Of his
young affections, mamfes ted such heroic deso-
ton to her prosecuted husband. She together
with her two daughters, at the tender ages Of Ii
and ID, had been confined in the loathsome a
partment Of a Parisian prison, where entirely ,s-
norant Of the fate which had befalien the hus-
band and father, they suffered for long time the
most painful prisations So soon they had
regsined their liberties their first object was to
gather tidings respecting friend dear to then,
and having ascertained that he was still lying IN
the dungeons OF Olnutz, TINS devoted. exemplary
wife, under an assumed name, proceeded to pro-
cure an audience with the Emperor OF Austria.
From this monarch she elasaiaesi. not her hus-
bands liberation, which was refused to her sf.-
treaties, but the melancholy privilege, of being,
together with her daughters, imprisoned with
him She then proceeded to olnutz, where she
remained with the beloved partner OF her alice
lions, soothing his sorrow and beguiliDg his ssf-
sering~ until the termination Of bis captivity
which took place about two years afterwards. !
1t was aiso during this melancholy portion of
Lafayettess life, that our gallant countrym.n,I

noble prisoner, from vario1s powerful CHARTERS
and among the rest, the gorcumens u this coun-

qaeror of Italy made his liberation condition

the obtention OF winch was very desirable to the
powersOy whose sanction he was impssoned, and
thus giaddened the hearts Of thousands who had
