His calmness awed the mob ; and the Assembly sending a deputation to his relief, the multitude were persuaded to retire.
This news was wafted quickly to La Fayette ; and on the 28th of June he appeared in Paris. He left the army, and came alone as a simple citizen, and, visiting the Assembly, he boldly met their charge against him, which was that he had made an attempt at dictation; and he was there to answer this slander, and to demand reparation for the indignity to which the king had been su...bjected. He ended his speech with the words, " Such are the representations submitted to the Assem- bly by a citizen whose love for liberty, at least, will not be disputed." But the Jacobin leaders had now the upper hand in the Assembly ; and they declared him guilty of treason.
And when the chivalrous and true-hearted La Fayette waited upon the king, for whom he had risked his repu- tation and his life, "he was insulted by the courtiers, coolly received by the king, and the queen expressly for- bade any one to give him the slightest support.
