Oum to Egypt, and one modern aghoUr hai endeavoured to prove that 

 CadmiK wa* the leader of a Cretan colony. We are inclined to believe

 vidoao* ha* been given that be wa< identical with Cadmilu 

 fiUier of the Cabiri. and that hi* wife liarmonia was also connected 

 with the Samothraoian rite*. (Miiller'n ' Urchomeno*,' p. 461.) The 

 legend goea on to relate that he and hit wife were cbingml into ser- 

 pent*, and that be retired to Illvria (Pautan., iz. 5S3), from whence he 

 led a boat of barbarian* into Oreeoe and sacked Delphi (Herod., v. 61, 

 it 43 ; Kuript, ' BacobaV 1833 ; Niebuhr, Hist. Rom.,' L p. 50). To 

 Cadmui i* attributed the invention of seventeen letters of the Greek 

 alphabet; the r-iiiig eight having been added by Palamede* and 

 Simonidea. (Pliny, ' Hut. Nat/ t. viL, c. 66.) 



CADMUS, of Miletus, wa* the 6nt Gre,-k proee writr. He lived 

 toward* the end of the 7th or the beginning of the Oth century B.C., 

 aod wrote a hintory, in four books, of the foundation of hi* native city 

 and the ooloniaation of Ionia, which was epitomised by Bion of Pro- 

 oonnoras. (Clem. AL Strom., vi. p. 629; Pliny, 'Hi*t. NaL,' viL 56, 

 v. 2; Inarataa, n*.) ' ArraleVesM:') 



CADOUDAL, OKUROB8, the son of a poor miller, was born in 

 1769, in the neighbourhood of Auray in Lower Brittany. He received 

 that education of the mind, with religion for its buio, which has 

 always diitinguiahed the western population of France. One of the 

 Brst to answer the call to arms of the royalist*, he collected, in 

 March 1793, a body of 50 Bretons, traversed the woods, fought sever A! 

 combats, and joined the main army at Faugeres. He was afterwards 

 present at the siege of Oranville, at the battle of Hans, and other 

 engagement*. Next, assisted by bis steadfast friend Lcmercier, he 

 achieved an insurrection in the Horbihan. This wa* his talent : none 

 of the patriot leaders knew better than Georges how to move the 

 passions of the simple peasantry, by his denunciation of the republic 

 and his advocacy of the Bourbons. In 1794 he wai captured by a 

 party of republican soldiers, and sent a* a prisoner to Brest. 



After a few months' captivity he made his escape, with several of 

 his companion*, and became a leader (chef de canton). In July 1795, 

 during the misunderstanding between the Vendean general* and the 

 emigrant officers, after the landing of Puisaye and Quiberon, Georges 

 strove hard to rescue a portion of the Chouan army from the disaster 

 which followed. The royalists were fearfully slaughtered by the army 

 of Hoche, but Cadoudal effected the retreat of a strong party. He 

 soon took upon himself the conduct of the insurrection in Lower 

 Brittany ; and, irritated at the conduct of the leaders of the late ill- 

 starred expedition, he organised an army of peasants, admitting 

 neither noble nor emigrant officer to any share in the command. 

 During the Utter part of 1795 and the early part of 1796, the great 

 military talents of Hoche tried most severely the patience and 

 endurance of the Chouans ; still their hardy leaders kept them from 

 disbanding. 



Then followed two years of inaction, whilst the faithful Chouan was 

 waiting for the signal to be sent from Paris to resume the offuoaive. 

 In January 1799, Uoorges Cadoudal, who had never dissolved his little 

 band, intimated to the royalist leaders that everything was ready for 

 a ipeedy insurrection. The following August he mustered hi* forces, 

 and occupied the camp of Beauchcne, Other chiefs united their band* 

 with hit, but Cadoudal's wa* the moat considerable, and, submitting 

 to hi* authority, they invested him with the chief command of the 

 Horbihan and Cotee-du-Nord. A great civil war was imminent ; the 

 flames had spread through the provinces of Marne, Normandy, and 

 Brittany, when the abrupt explosion of the great conspiracy of the 

 18th Urumaire paralysed the royalists and raised Bonaparte to power. 

 The inflexible Chouan resisted still, fought the battles of Grand-Champ 

 and Klven (1800), and wa* the last to think of peace. 



Georges Cadoudal now went to Puris, and became the object of the 

 First Consul'* admiring notice. The muter of France used every art 

 to win him over to hi* service, but nothing could shake the constancy 

 of this rude chief. Bonaparte then strove to arrest him; but the 

 Chouan fled to England, where be wa* treated with great distinction. 

 The Comte d'Artoia, with hi* own hand, gave him the cordon rouge 

 in the king', name. Towards the end of 1800 he returned to Brittany, 

 again evoked the loyalty of that population, and ordered several spies 

 to be shot, whom the First Consul had sent a* emissaries to entrap 

 him. 



In 1802, being once more in England, he allied himself with 

 Piehegru to overturn Bonaparte. George* proposed to attack him 

 openly, and cut through his guard*. To this end, ha landed secretly 

 in France on the 21*t of Auguit 1803, and making hi* way to Paris, 

 lay hid there for *iz months, waiting for the signal to be given by 

 Herein and Piehcgrn. At length, on the 4th of March 1804, he was 

 surpriMd in a cabriolet, near the Luxembourg, and captured by a 

 |*rty til police, after he had killed one man and wounded another. 

 At bis trial he boldly avowed bis devotion to his 'legitimate' king. 

 He was condemned to death, and executed on the 25th of June, at 

 the age of thirty-five. " His mind," said Napoleon, "was cast in the 

 true mould ; in my hand* he would have done great thing*. I knew 

 bow to appreciate hi* firmness of character."
