THE FRENCH BRIGAND,
A Skct4 of Torrible Interest.
--- ,
The wild country and extensive fine forests of the
Landes have aftmled shelter even within the last
twenty years, to bands of robbers and outlaws, living
by depredations committed en the highway, end occa
atonally emerging from their barren retreats into more
more fertile districts, to plunder the dwelling of is
,for" a country gentleman. The improved mans
ef tenet; roads, the increase of traffic andtntrelling,
and the greater vigilance of the gendarmerie, have of
late rendered these offences of rare occurrence; and
j the last band that made, itself anything like a repute:.
Lion in the department, was that of a certain Deselout.
whose career was brought to an abrupt termination in
the autumn of the year 1829. lie was the son of t er
spectable parents at Dax, and at the usual age, wall
taken as a soldier by the conscription, but had not
beep more than tent years with his regiment, when he'
[ was tried by a court martial for striking a sergeant, and
condemned to death. His sentence was commuted
to ten years hard labor, with a bullet chained to his an
kle. At the egpiration of that time he was released
but he was of a violent and reckless character. and
soon relapsed into crime. He was found poaching
on the groundi of Baron d'Estivil, a country gentleman
residing near flax, and only escaped being taken by
shooting one of the l!eopers. The keeper was a fns
teelnicaber of the bition.s and the latter caused the
j mina active researches to be made after the murderer:
but Deuilutit, who knew the fate that awaited Mtn if
taken, fled into the Landes, got together a few bad
characters, escaped convicts and others, en d. by his eel
tlyity and knowledge of the country, manage to elude
pusuit for nearly two years, during which several mor
dent and innumerable robberies werelaid table charge.
In addition to the difficulty of tracing him in a wild
,and thinly-peopled country, the long impunity enjoyed
by Dezelout was attributable to his treatment of the
peasantry. He had sufficient judgment. to abstairt
from molesting them. and was even on more than one
occasion, to give alms and assistance to the poorest a
, :pangs , . them. They had consequently small inducts
merits to be tray him, or to contribute in any aay tti
his apprehension.
Oa a summer night of the year 1829, five or sic
persons were assembled round a table in the Cafe Her
het upon what wall formerly the rampart, but is now
the tavorite public walletit Dax. The day had been
sultry, and at sunset the Dacois had flocked to the
1 promenade to enjoy the cool evening breeze, and lister}
to the band of a marching regiment that had halted for
the night in the town. The music had ceased, and
the promenade was in a great measure deserted io fa
vor of the various cuffs, plaid's and in front of which
numerous groups were seated refreshing themselves,
and inhaling the perfumes that the tflight wind brought
over from the fields and gardens surrounding the town.
A few officers were still strolling up and down, their
epaulets glanced as they passed beneath the limps that
were sparklingly disturbed over the rampart, while
here and there, under the rows of plane trees, groupa
of peasants and artisans were collected, reporting from
the fatigues of the day, or singing some of the popular
verses of Jasmin, the barber poet of Gascony. -
The party assembled in the Cafe Herbet consisted
of three or four Da: merchants, of Baron d'Estival,
and other country gentlemen of the vicinity. Their'
conversation ran upon a robbery'reisendr nitimmittetl
by the notorious Omelette: and D'Eatiyal expressed
himself is terms of strong indignation concerning the
inefficiericy of a police that conld not succeed in pot :
ting a stop to the crimes of that bandit and his corn .
