Trial of Moreau, Georges, and others Public interest excited by Moreau Arraignment of the prisoners Moreau's letter to Bonaparte Violence of the President of the Court towards the prisoners Lajolais and Rolland Examinations intended to criminate Moreau Remarkable observations Speech written by M. Garat Bonaparte's opinion of Garat's eloquence General Lecourbe and Moreau's son Respect shown to Moreau by the military Different sentiments excited by Georges and Moreau Thoriot and 'Tui-roi' Georges' answers to the interrogatories He refuses an offer of pardon Coster St.
For when Garat began this air with his full voice, and every countenance was directed to the box where the royal family were sitting, the whole theatre rose, and the hundreds upon hundreds present had joined in the loud, jubilant strains "Oh, Richard! oh, mon roi!"

He reads before the Academy of Arras a discourse against the civil incapacities of illegitimate children, and then another on reforms in criminal jurisprudence. Garat, 85. Fievee, who heard him at the Jacobin Club, said that he resembled a "tailor of the ancient regime." La Reeveillere-Lepeaux, "Memoires." Buchez et Roux, XXXIV., 94. Malouet, "Memoires," II., 135.

Garat sent for Edgeworth de Firmont, the ecclesiastic whom Louis XVI. had chosen, and took him in his own carriage to the Temple. M. Edgeworth, on being ushered into the presence of the King, would have thrown himself at his feet, but Louis instantly raised him, and both shed tears of emotion.
* The Executive Council is composed of men who, if ever they were well-intentioned, must be totally unfit for the government of an extensive republic. Monge, the Minister of the Marine, is a professor of geometry; Garat, Minister of Justice, a gazette writer; Le Brun, Minister of Foreign Affairs, ditto; and Pache, Minister of the Interior, a private tutor.
It was also soon considered to be highly fashionable to set one's self against the prejudice which had been hitherto fostered against actors; and, whereas the queen took lessons in singing from Garat, the opera-singer, and even sang duets with her, she threw down the wall of partition which had hitherto separated the artistes of the stage from good society.
During the trial Moreau delivered a defence, which I knew had been written by his friend Garat, whose eloquence I well remember was always disliked by Bonaparte. Of this I had a proof on the occasion of a grand ceremony which took place in the Place des Victoires, on laying the first stone of a monument which was to have been erected to the memory of Desaix, but which was never executed.
Without Rossini, without Meyerbeer, he might perhaps have been taken for a man of genius. He has one advantage over those men, he is in vocal music what Paganini is on the violin, Liszt on the piano, Taglioni in the ballet, and what the famous Garat was; at any rate he recalls that great singer to those who knew him. His is not a voice, my friend, it is a soul.
