The affair would go before the assizes, and in all the newspapers there would be mention of the "A. P. buttons." He was asked for his customers' names, and after a few days the search began, guided by a list so exact that useless steps were spared. One morning a detective reached the Avenue de Clichy, and found the tailor Valerius in his shop, reading a newspaper.
Louis appeared in a short jacket and a straw hat, looking rather waggish and very embarrassed to present himself in such a costume. Driving through the Boulevard Clichy and endless out-of-the-way streets, we finally reached Auber's hotel, which is in the Rue St. Georges.
Bonaparte could not endure to have his conduct predicated; and enraged at seeing his campaigns depreciated, his glory and that of his army disparaged, and intrigues formed against him in the Club of Clichy, he wrote the following letter to the Directory: This motion, printed by order of the Assembly, it is evident, is directed against me.
In 1814 he showed such bravery at the Barriere of Clichy that he was decorated with the Cross of the Legion of Honor: before he died he was a grand officer of the order on account of his artistic merits. He was also a member of the Institute and Director of the Academy of Rome.
"Yes, monsieur le secretaire-general." "Did you see a gentleman and a lady go out?" "Yes." "Would you know the man again?" "Yes." "Then don't lose a moment, chief-inspector.

"My name is Grasset, sir, successor to Louchard, sheriff's officer " "What then?" "You are under arrest, sir. You must come with us to prison to Clichy. Please to get dressed. We have done the civil, as you see; I have brought no police, and there is a hackney cab below." "You are safely nabbed, you see," said one of the bailiffs; "and we look to you to be liberal."

At the national celebration on July 14th he allowed it to have free vent, and thereupon wrote to the Directory, bitterly reproaching them for their weakness in face of the royalist plot: "I see that the Clichy Club means to march over my corpse to the destruction of the Republic."
