The nsytculnrs Of the affair Of Count R+ousses at

p<rs. From several accounts, az OF wIlch 1gree ="
the main poifts we compile the following:
TIE Coun, landed on the night Of the lsi OF Juiy,
nj point called Los Algodonales, and entered Gasy
MAJ Ia disguise. He thea wrote note 10 tne VoE- "
<rnor, Gen Yahez asking FOR an interve" WIN VIZ M
which was granted, and il took place on the sane
night The Count declared 70 the Governor 'ha' ne
had come with hostile intentions to Sonofa but that

Soned his former pro cts and desired to place himself
at the disposal Of the Government
The Goverpor had no confidence in his professions,
and advsed bim 20 leave the state. The Count, in
.t.ad ~ I0yyiDo this advice Immediately PROCEEDED
to seduce the French volunteer the greater part of
whom were personally known to him. The events
which occurred from the lat Of July 70 the iith

stating thst IN view Of the hostile measures thai
being taken against them they asked for guarantees
for tier safety they feared they might be attacked,
which guarantees they expected to receive in tn
shape OF hostages munitions and artillery otherwise
they might be obliged to guarantee their safety
BY taking up arms. The Governor replied at once TO
their letter stating that they under the influence
of se stores and thc; he had no intention Of attack
ing them, and gave them his word of honor that be
would not take single hostile step il the French bat
talon did not first act the offensive, bnt that the
conditions they demanded compromised his honor,
and be could not comply with them without first call
ing @ council Of war.
In the meanwhile, say the hetcan accounts, Gen.

them and learning that the Count intended to attack
