The late M. Dupin, Sen., Senator and Procureur-General of the Court of Cassation, 1865. Engraving from a photograph by M. Pierre Petit. 'The veteran French lawyer and politician, M. Dupin, who was called "Dupin l'Ainé," to distinguish him from his two at Paris at the age of the elections which took place immediately after the Revolution he was returned, though last on the list of the Democratic candidates for the Constituent Assembly, by the electors of the Nièvre and his long experience of Parliamentary business, both as Deputy and Speaker, recommended him as chairman of the committee for drawing up the rules and regulations of the new Assembly. He also presided in the committee appointed to frame the new Constitution, on which he published, in 1849, a series of essays or comments. Nevertheless, when the coup-d'etat was effected, and the representatives expelled from their Chamber, M. Dupin made no stand against the invasion of the military, and no use of the powers which, as President, he was invested with'. From "Illustrated London News", 1865.
