At the time of the insurrection of April 1, 1795, he obtained an order to arrest Chales, Choudieu, and Foussedoire, to de- clare Paris in a state of siege, and to confer the com- mand on Pichegru. He opposed the banishment of J. Lebon as a too lenient punishment, and contrived to have the members of the revolutionary tribunal of Nantes carried before the criminal tribunah of Angers. He then, warmly declared against every idea of na- tional failure. At the time of the new insurrection of the dem...agogues on the 21st of May, Bourdon, ever violent and hasty, desired that his colleagues who were accused of having instigated it, should be ii&mediately shot in the hall. A few days afterwards he proposed, and obtained leave, that they should be brought before an appointed number of commis- sioners. In September he was sent into the depart- ment of Eure and Loir, where the scarcity had oc- casioned disturbances, and he succeeded in dispersing somce mobs. He was at Chartres after the 10th of October, 1795, and having been informed th^t some of those proscribed on that day had taken refuge in this department, he gave opders for a pursuit.
