This article appears in Volume V04, Page 317 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BOS-BRI
BOUILLE, FRANCOIS CLAUDE AMOUR, MARQUIS DE (1739-1800) , French general. He served in the Seven Years' War, and as
governor
  in the Antilles conducted operations against the
English
  in the War of American Independence. On his return to France he was named
governor
  of the Three Bishoprics, of
Alsace
  and of Franche-Comte. Hostile to the Revolution, he had continual quarrels with the municipality of Metz, and brutally suppressed the military insurrections at Metz and
Nancy
 , which had been provoked by the harsh conduct of certain noble
officers
 . Then he proposed to Louis XVI. to take
refuge
  in a frontier town where an appeal could be made to other nations against the revolutionists. When this project failed as a result of Louis XVI.'s arrest at Varennes, Bouille went to
Russia
  to induce Catherine II. to intervene in favour of the king, and then to England, where he died in 1800, after serving in various royalist attempts on France. He left Memoires sur la Revolution francaise depuis son origine jusqu'd la retraite du duc de
Brunswick
  (Paris, 18o1).
