BROGLIE, Ciaude Victor Marie, Prince de, French soldier, born in Paris in 1757; executed 27 June, 1794. He was the son of the Marshal de Broglie, entered the French army, volunteered his services in the cause of American independence, was transferred to the regiment Saintonge, commanded by Custine, and served until the surren' der at Yorktown. After returning to France he was elected to the states-general, and espoused the cause of popular liberty. He was president of the constituent assembly in 1790, but preferred military service, and was appointed a brigadier-general in the army of the Rhine. In 1792 he was removed for refusing to recognize the decree of the national assembly suspending the prerogative of the king, was afterward arraigned before the revolutionary tribunal, condemned, and guillotined.
