taken . 1 only felt one of my feet entirely immos-eable . A svall was there before me . I attempted to rise , in order to climb over it ; but my foot , which was broken , refused me this service , and violent pains began to prevail . The pains were so excruciating , that I cried as lout ! as possible . I found I had not been wrong in my former conjectures . The enormous mass which , in the dark , my umbrella had presented to the uncertain look ofthe sentries , frightened them to such a degree , that they could not determine to abandon thc watch-house ; whither they had taken flight ; and not one of their comrades

on duty had the courage to appear abroad . It svas not discovered before sun-rise . They brought me back to my chamber , where they threw me upon the floor . They left me for eight hours , persuaded that I must die : when they saw that , with all this , I did not die , they brought a surgeon , svho dressed my foot . I remained three months in hed , and used crutches above a twelvemonth .

The victory of Jemappe , said the reporter , was the source of all the treasons of Dumourier . That brilliant day inflated his heart . He attributed to his osvn talents , that which was the effect of republican courage . Belgium appeared to him as a lawful conquest , to svhich he had more claim than any other person . But toon discovering- that his plans svere not svell received in Belgium , he made an incursion into the United Provinces , where he hoped to reign more absolutely than in the Austrain Netherlands . But his projects were soon disclosed He then began to declaim against the

. Convention and its commissaries . He issued proclamations in contradiction to its decrees . The enormous popularity he had acquired with the army made it necessary for Ihe Commissioners to act with caution . But Dumourier broke out abruptly : " They accuse me , " said he to Camus , " of wishing to be a nesv Caesar , but ' if I am attacked , I shall knosv hosv to defend mvself . " In speaking these words , he laid his hand to the hilt of his sword , "if you wish to be a Ca : sar , " replied Camus , warmly , " I can be a Brutus . " He clapt at the same time a pistol to the breast of Dumourier .

The plan ofthe latter ss-as to abandon the Netherlands to the Austrians ' , to resign to them the territory as far as the ancient frontier . He svas to sell to them the keys ofthe country , to divide the troops of the line from the volunteers , and to create a schism in the Convention , by complaining of ils principal Members . Behold him at length denounced . The Commissioners on mission in Belgium summoned him to surrender himself at Lisle . He refused , and by this refusal threw off the mask . He was ordered to the bar , and the Committee of General Defence sent off four new Commissioners , Camus , Bencal , Quienelle , and La Marque , accompanied by .

Convention , ' said tnat republican general , when the treacherous Dumourier wished to induce him to march against Paris . Here Camus mentioned a strong circumstance . He said , that several chests of gold medals were seized at this time from the Governor-General of the Losv Countries . These svere offered in charge to CamtH . He refused the trust , on account of his departure for ihe camp of Dumourier , and desired that they might be deposited with the Commission of Archives . —Since his arrival from prison , he learned that this deposit had never been made .

The Commissioners arrived at the camp u-ifhoiit any escort . Bin a detachment of the hussars . of Berchigny surrounded their carriage and that of Bournonville . " Who are ( hose armed men svho surround us ? " said the Commissioners . " It is a guard of honour which Dumourier has sent you , " said some one of the troop . On hearing those words , they had no longer a doubt but that this perfidious General meant to secure their persons . On their arrival they found Dumourier disturbed in his mind ; but with an assumed calmness , " Yon come , " said he , " lo arrest me . " " Not at all , sve . bring to you the order of the Convention . " The decree svas read , ordering him to the bar . Dumourier refused to repair lo Paris ; and declaimed against Marat and the Jaco-r
