The agreement of these reports convinced Parades, that the captains sent to reconnoitre, being his ene- mies,^ had combined in bringing a &lse account. He therefore earnest- ly requested the admiral to set him on shore after dark, with two sailors and a marine officer, solemnly pro- mising to rejoin him en board the Brctagne in the rooming. D'Orvil- liers seemed inclined to grant his request, but was again dissuaded by the officers, who told him, tliat it would be highly degrading to the captai...ns he had sent, should he dis- pute their word. Parades being thus silenced, (though he had reason on his side,) It was unanimously resolved, that the blockade of the English fieet should continue, and theMagicienne frigate was dispatched to carry the news lo court. What opinion can now be formed of d'OrvilUers and his officers ? It was then known at Versnilles, and over Europe, that the EngliUi fieet was* at sea, cruis^ ing in the chops of the channel. As to Pcirades, his reputation fell a saci'ifice to tlic fi;lse reports of the two officers, whose mean jealousy iCf his credit witli the ministry ren- dered them traitors to the kia^ and the state* After these repeated disai^xmit- ments the count fell sick, and easiljr obtained leave to quit the fleet : on the 4th of September he was landed at Brest from the Tartar frigate* Soon after his arrival he had a re- lapse, and was confined by iUness above a month.
