MALARTIE, Anne Joseph Hyppolite, Count de (mah-lar-tee'), French soldier, born in Montauban, 3 July, 1730; died in Mauritius, 28 July, 1800. He entered the service in 1745, and was sent in 1749 as major to Quebec, where he was entrusted almost immediately with high commands and perilous missions.
He defeated the English in several encounters, and was wounded, 3 July, 1758, in the attack on Fort Carillon (Ticonderoga), and again in the battles of 13 December, 1759, and 28 April, 1760, when at the head of his regiment he destroyed the works constructed by the English at that place.
He was commissioned brigadier in 1763 and sent in 1767 to command in Guadeloupe, which he governed with efficiency till 1780, being very useful to the patriot cause during the war of American independence, and forwarding as early as 1777 men, guns, and munitions to Washington. He was appointed Major-General in 1780 and Lieutenant-General in 1792, and was sent in the latter year to Mauritius, which he governed till the time of his death.
