Charette has arrived here two days ago : I have J
been to the place of his confinement, in order to

ed very much. There were two holes in his head lt
and his fingers were mangled He laid he felt an al
extraordinary pain in his right arm, as if it were a

said, no master tor that; it has been done ; it will
heal.— It seems that he does not expedt to die. tr '
Some individuals have induced him to speak, after &
having given him some cordials. He praises very ea
much General Candaux, De Hqche, and a General
Jacob, who is confined in the prison of Nantes. He
fays that he fought always well, and that he is con 3 1
fined uudefervedly—He said, that he (hould never on
have believed that the French would have fought re<
fa well, and wjth so mach courage, and chiefly the
Chasseurs ot Caffel and Montague, and that the
Vendean war would not have |acted two months, had
not the French been so party divided. He was tll:
asked why he did not remain qu.et, after the famous rc(
pacification ? Bacauf,;, he answered, the promises
made to me have not bten fulfilled.
