to play the fool. "Wbere," exclaimed
Sheridan,-placing great emphasis on the

The alleged outrage on our flag, by the
soldiers OF General Oudinot, at Rome, is
thus explained in the Washington Repub-
lie. 1t will be seen that mountain has
been made of mole.hill:-
We understand that Mr. BRowS, our
consul, called in person and made a repre-
sentation Of the facts of this case to Cen
eral Oudinot. The general in-chief re-
ceived him with courtesy, and listened
to his statement with due attention, &C
companied with all proper expressions Of
regret,and in conclusion, directed the chief
OF the staff TO return with Mr. Brown 10
the consulate, TO collect from witnesses of
the scene full information in regard to it.
The next day military court was CALI
ed, which sat for nine hours, eliciting the
facts OF the case, with all the minuteness
which distinguishes the French tribunals.
In the course Of this examination it ap-
peared that two of Mr. Browns servants
(ltalians) had repeatedly, during the day,
insuIted the French soldiers in passing
At the time in question an individual be-
longing TO large crowd of Italians,
which, in defiance Of general order of
the day previous, was assembled, to the
number Of hundred and fifty, at the
consul's house, not being apprised of its
character, and made prisoner of the indi-
vidnal in question, and Of another who
was recognized as deserter from the
French army. They then withdrew with
the prisoners. 1t was in evidence upon
oath that the patrol deported themselves
without menace, and were uniformed of
the character Of the premises until they
were on the point of retiring.
Mr. Brown left the city with his family
while this examination was in progress,
leaving Mr. FREEMAN (onr consul at An
coma i'll the temporary discharge of the
duties ofthe Roman consulate. In conse-
qnence Of MIR Browns, absence, and un-
der the impression that the consulate was
left without an agent, we understand that
General Oudinot addressed communica-
ton to Mr. Cass, our charge d'affairs, in
which he recapitulated the result of the
examination, substantially as we have Civ
EN- it above, and expressed the profound
regret which he had experienced at the err
ror that had been committed, which had
been previously expressed in person TO
the American consul. He also renewed
to Mr. Cass the assurance that no one in
the French army had harbored the design
of dsregarding the rights of his country,
or questioning the inviolability of domicil
of'dipIomatic functionaries. -
General Oudiot further stated, we un-
derstand, that the two prisoners had been
released, and expressed the hope that the
communication which had been made
would be sufficient satisfaction for the
error which had been committed, and
and which could not occur again.
