Splendid Examples Of Heroi.m.

The 18Th battalion of the Garde Mobile showed
the most devoted courage. Martin Hyscnthe, only
is, a simple GaTde Mobile, rushed on a f0mda-
Bile barrier of the FaubonTg du Temple, in the face
of a shower OF balls. He took the flag which sur

Another Garde Mobile, a boy between l6 and II,

to the President for having himself captured five
insurgents, five nuskets, and five flags, on five
different barricades in the Rue de Reuilly. Being

President The president accordingly went 10
