REGNAULT DE SAINT JEAN

This article appears in Volume V23, Page 47 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: RAY-RHU
REGNAULT DE SAINT JEAN D'ANGELY, MICHEL LOUIS
ETIENNE
 , COMTE (1761-1819), French politician, was born at Saint Fargeau (
Yonne
 ) on the 3rd of December 1761. Before the Revolution he was an avocat in Paris and lieutenant of the maritime provostship of Rochefort. In 1789 he was elected deputy to the States General by the Third Estate of the senechaussee of Saint Jean d'Angely. His eloquence made him a prominent figure in the Constituent Assembly, where he boldly attacked Mirabeau, and settled the dispute about the ashes of Voltaire by decreeing that they belonged to the nation. But the moderation shown by the
measures
  he proposed at the time of the flight of the king to Varennes, by his refusal to accede to the demands for the king's execution, and by the articles he published in the Journal de Paris and the Ami des patriotes, marked him out for the hostility of the advanced parties. He was arrested after the revolution of the loth of August 1792, but succeeded in escaping, and during the reaction which followed the fall of Robespierre was appointed
administrator
  of the military hospitals in Paris. His powers of organization brought him to Bonaparte's notice, and he took. part in the coup d'etat of 18 Brumaire, year VIII. (9th of November 1799). Under the Empire he enjoyed the confidence of Bonaparte, and was made councillor of state, president of section in the Council of State,
member of the French
Academy
 , procureur general of the high court, and a
count
  of the Empire. He was dismissed on the first restoration of the Bourbons, but resumed his posts during the Hundred Days, and after Waterloo persuaded the emperor to abdicate. He was exiled by the government of the second Restoration, but subsequently obtained leave to return to France. He died on the day of his return to Paris (11th of
March
  1819). Les Souvenirs du Comte
Regnault
  de St Jean d'Angely (Paris, 1817) are spurious. His son, AUGUSTE MICHEL
ETIENNE
 
REGNAULT
  DE SAINT JEAN D'ANGELY (17941870), an army officer, was dismissed from the army by the Restoration government, fought for the Greeks in the Greek War of Independence, and rejoined the French army in 1830. In 1848 he was elected deputy and sat on the right. Under the Second Empire he went through the Crimean and Italian campaigns, and was made senator and
marshal
  for bravery at the battle of Magenta.
